[0020] Figure 3 This is a diagram showing the usage status of the air-floating platform for moving heavy equipment according to the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0021] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, this invention discloses an air-floating platform for moving heavy equipment, comprising a chassis 01, multiple wheels 02, multiple air cushions 03, and multiple parking blocks 04. The wheels 02 and air cushions 03 are connected to the bottom surface of the chassis 01. The air cushions 03 are used to inflate the chassis 01, causing it to float. The parking blocks 04 are connected to the top surface of the chassis 01 and are used to secure the heavy equipment. In this embodiment, the heavy equipment is a heavy-duty vehicle. Six air cushions 03 are evenly distributed on the chassis 01. The air cushions 03 are connected to a high-pressure air source, and blow high-pressure gas from the air cushions 03 to the ground, causing the chassis 01 to float. The wheels 02 are omnidirectional wheels, distributed at the four corners of the chassis 01. In use, the heavy-duty vehicle is connected to the parking blocks 04 to secure it to the chassis 01. Then, the chassis is traction-driven to move the heavy-duty vehicle. The present invention provides an air-floating platform for moving heavy equipment. Since it includes an air cushion 03 connected to the bottom surface of the chassis 01, and the air cushion 03 is used to blow air to make the chassis 01 float, when the chassis is to be moved by traction equipment to move heavy equipment, the load can be reduced and the movement can be fast. No special traction equipment is required, and the movement method is simple, easy to operate, convenient and safe.

[0022] Optionally, two parking blocks 04 form a group, with the two parking blocks 04 in the same group respectively disposed on both sides of the chassis 01 along the width direction. The spacing between the two parking blocks 04 in the same group is adjustable. Parking blocks 04 in different groups are arranged sequentially along the length direction of the chassis 01, and the position of each group of parking blocks 04 in the length direction of the chassis 01 is adjustable. Specifically, two or more groups of parking blocks 04 are provided to accommodate different heavy-duty truck bodies. In this embodiment, two groups of parking blocks 04 are provided to accommodate four-wheeled heavy-duty truck bodies. By adjusting the spacing between the two parking blocks 04 in the same group, heavy-duty truck bodies with different wheelbases can be accommodated. By adjusting the position of each group of parking blocks 04 in the length direction of the chassis 01, heavy-duty truck bodies with different wheelbases can be accommodated.

[0023] Optionally, the system also includes multiple parking block tracks 05, which are disposed on the top surface of the chassis 01. The position of each parking block track 05 along the width direction of the chassis 01 is adjustable. Each parking block track 05 corresponds to a parking block 04, and the length direction of the parking block track 05 is consistent with the length direction of the chassis 01. Each parking block 04 is disposed on a parking block track 05 and is adapted to move relative to the parking block track 05. By moving the parking blocks 04 relative to the parking block track 05, the position of each group of parking blocks 04 in the length direction of the chassis 01 is adjusted, preventing the parking blocks 04 from shifting during movement and making the position adjustment of the parking blocks 04 more accurate.

[0024] Optionally, each group of parking blocks 04 corresponds to a set of position adjustment components. The position adjustment components include a first lead screw 61, a second lead screw 62, a third lead screw 63, a fourth lead screw 64, a first lead screw seat 611, a second lead screw seat 612, a third lead screw seat 613, a fourth lead screw seat 614, a fifth lead screw seat 615, and a sixth lead screw seat 616. The second lead screw seat 612 and the fifth lead screw seat 615 are connected to the top surface of the chassis 01. The first lead screw seat 61 and the fourth lead screw seat 614 are respectively connected to both ends of the parking block track 05. The third lead screw seat 61 and the sixth lead screw seat 616 are respectively connected to both ends of the other parking block track 05 in the same group. The middle part of the first lead screw 61 passes through the second lead screw seat 61. 2. Both ends are threaded to the first lead screw seat 611 and the third lead screw seat 613 respectively. The threads of the first lead screw 61 at both ends of the second lead screw seat 612 have opposite directions. The middle part of the second lead screw 62 passes through the fifth lead screw seat 615 and both ends are threaded to the fourth lead screw seat 614 and the sixth lead screw seat 616 respectively. The threads of the second lead screw 62 at both ends of the fifth lead screw seat 615 have opposite directions. The first lead screw 61 and the second lead screw 62 are parallel to each other. One end of the third lead screw 63 is connected to a parking block 04 and the other end is threaded to the first lead screw seat 611. One end of the fourth lead screw 64 is connected to another parking block 04 in the same group and the other end is connected to the third lead screw seat 613. When the first lead screw 61 and the second lead screw 62 are rotated, the two parking block tracks 05 move closer or further apart synchronously, thereby adjusting the position of each parking block track 05 in the width direction of the chassis 01 to accommodate heavy-duty carriages with different wheelbases; when the third lead screw 63 and the fourth lead screw 64 are rotated, the two parking blocks 04 move relative to one parking block track 05 respectively, thereby adjusting the position of each set of parking blocks 04 in the length direction of the chassis 01 to accommodate heavy-duty carriages with different wheelbases.

[0025] Optionally, it also includes a longitudinal limiting block 07, which is connected to the top surface of the chassis 01. The longitudinal limiting block 07 corresponds one-to-one with the parking block track 05. The longitudinal limiting block 07 is located near the edge of the chassis 01 in the width direction. The longitudinal limiting block 07 is used to limit the movement position of the parking block track 05 in the width direction of the chassis 01.

[0026] Optionally, the system also includes multiple longitudinal support blocks 08, which are protrusions connected to the chassis 01. Each parking block track 05 has a longitudinal support block 08 at both ends along its length, and the longitudinal support blocks 08 are in close contact with the edge of the parking block track 05. When the chassis 01 brakes during movement, the inertial force of the heavy-duty carriage is transmitted from the parking block 04 to the longitudinal support blocks 08 via the lead screw seat, preventing the first lead screw 61 and the second lead screw 62 from breaking due to excessive force.

[0027] Optionally, the parking block 04 includes a parking block base 41 and an arc-shaped plate 42. The bottom surface of the parking block base 41 is provided with a groove that mates with the parking block track 05. The arc-shaped plate 42 is connected to the top surface of the parking block base 41. The plane of the arc-shaped plate 42 is perpendicular to the surface of the chassis 01. The arc-shaped plate 42 is used to block the outside of the wheels of the heavy-duty vehicle. By using the arc-shaped plate 42 to block the heavy-duty vehicle or other heavy equipment between the two parking blocks 04, the heavy-duty vehicle or other heavy equipment is more stably fixed on the chassis 01.

[0028] Optionally, it also includes a first drive wheel 81 and a second drive wheel 82. The first drive wheel 81 and the second drive wheel 82 have the same structure. The first drive wheel 81 includes a first drive wheel body, a drive airbag, a motor, a guide shaft, and a spring. The motor drives the first drive wheel body to rotate. The first drive wheel body is connected to the chassis 01 through the spring, which is sleeved on the guide shaft. When the drive airbag inflates, it causes the first drive wheel body to contact the ground. When the drive airbag deflates, the first drive wheel body detaches from the ground. The first drive wheel body is arranged laterally. The second drive wheel 82 includes a second drive wheel body, which is arranged longitudinally. When the air cushion 03 is inflated to make the chassis 01 float, the first drive wheel body and the second drive wheel body detach from the ground under the action of the spring. When the drive airbag inflates, it causes the first drive wheel body and the second drive wheel body to contact the ground. At this time, the chassis moves through the first drive wheel body and the second drive wheel body. In actual use, two air-floating platforms of this invention for moving heavy equipment are used in conjunction with a transport vehicle, such as... Figure 3 As shown, when moving straight, the two second drive wheels contact the ground and drive the two chassis to move straight. When moving laterally, the two first drive wheels contact the ground and drive the two chassis to move laterally. The first drive wheels and second drive wheels can also drive the chassis to rotate in place. The first drive wheels 81 and second drive wheels 82 can drive the chassis to move even when the traction equipment is not tractioning the chassis.

[0029] Optionally, the chassis 01 is provided with multiple anti-collision blocks on its edge to prevent damage due to impact during movement. The chassis 01 is also provided with multiple lifting rings 12 on its edge. The traction device pulls the chassis through the lifting rings 12 for easy movement. The wheels 02 are omnidirectional wheels, which allow the chassis to move in any direction when the traction device pulls it, making operation more convenient.

[0030] The present invention provides a moving mechanism comprising two air-floating platforms as described above for moving heavy equipment. One air-floating platform has a parking block 04 for fixing one end of the heavy equipment along its length, and the other air-floating platform has a parking block 04 for fixing the other end of the heavy equipment along its length. Figure 3As shown, when the heavy equipment is a heavy-duty carriage, one parking block 04 for moving the air-floating platform of the heavy equipment is connected to one end of the heavy-duty carriage, and another parking block 04 for moving the air-floating platform of the heavy equipment is connected to the other end of the heavy-duty carriage.

[0031] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Various modifications and improvements made by those skilled in the art to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the spirit of the present invention should fall within the protection scope defined by the claims of the present invention.
