Once the hydraulic system fails or leaks, the telescopic boom is prone to accidental slippage and it is difficult to achieve reliable mechanical self-locking, posing a significant safety hazard. In addition, dust, impurities and other dirt easily adhere to the surface of the telescopic boom during the reciprocating extension and retraction process. Existing devices are not equipped with corresponding cleaning structures, making it impossible to effectively clean the surface of the boom when it retracts into the inner cavity of the basic boom. Summary of the Invention

[0025] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0026] Example 1
[0027] Please see Figure 1-5 The present invention provides the following technical solution: a boom telescopic device for an all-terrain tire crane, including a basic boom 1, a telescopic boom 4 slidably connected inside the basic boom 1, a scraping component 3 for cleaning the surface of the telescopic boom 4 at one end of the basic boom 1, and a moving component 2 for driving the telescopic boom 4 to telescopic movement at the upper end of the basic boom 1.
[0028] The moving component 2 includes a strip box 21. The strip box 21 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the basic arm 1. Drive rollers 23 are rotatably arranged on both sides inside the strip box 21. A belt 22 is installed between the two sets of drive rollers 23. One side of the upper end of the telescopic arm 4 is connected to the belt 22 through a slider 24. The upper end of the basic arm 1 is provided with a groove 25 that matches the slider 24. A worm gear 27 is fixedly installed at the front end of one drive roller 23. A fixed box 26 is fixedly installed at the front end of the strip box 21 at the position corresponding to the worm gear 27. A motor 28 is installed at one end of the fixed box 26 at the position corresponding to the worm gear 27. A rotating rod 29 is connected to the output end of the motor 28. A worm 210 is fixedly installed on the surface of the rotating rod 29. The worm 210 and the worm gear 27 mesh with each other for transmission.
[0029] Specifically, the slider 24 has protrusions at both ends, and the slide groove 25 has grooves at both ends that are adapted to the protrusions. By adopting the above technical solution, the protrusions at both ends of the slider 24 cooperate with the grooves in the slide groove 25 to limit the slider 24 to move laterally, thereby improving sliding stability, avoiding shaking and jamming, and reducing wear on the contact surface and extending service life.
[0030] Specifically, the rear end of the strip box 21 and the front end of the fixed box 26 are both detachably connected to the inspection plate by bolts. By adopting the above technical solution, the inspection plate is detachably connected by bolts, which facilitates quick disassembly and opening of the strip box 21 and the fixed box 26, making it convenient to inspect, maintain and replace the internal drive components, improving the ease of operation and maintenance of the device and reducing maintenance costs.
[0031] Specifically, the side of the belt 22 is tightly fitted to the inner wall of the strip box 21, and the drive roller 23 is rotatably connected to the strip box 21 through a rotating shaft. The worm gear 27 at the front end of one drive roller 23 is welded and fixed to the rotating shaft. By adopting the above technical solution, the tight fit between the belt 22 and the inner wall of the strip box 21 can prevent deviation. The drive roller 23 achieves smooth rotation through the rotating shaft. The welded and fixed worm gear 27 to the rotating shaft ensures stable transmission, avoids transmission loosening, and ensures accurate and reliable telescopic drive.
[0032] Specifically, the length of the slide groove 25 matches the length of the belt 22, and the side of the telescopic arm 4 fits tightly against the inner wall of the basic arm 1. By adopting the above technical solution, the length of the slide groove 25 matches the length of the belt 22, which can ensure that the stroke of the slider 24 is adapted to the telescopic range of the telescopic arm 4. The telescopic arm 4 fits tightly against the inner wall of the basic arm 1, ensuring smooth telescopic movement, avoiding deviation and shaking, and improving the telescopic accuracy of the boom.
[0033] Specifically, the worm 210 and the rotating rod 29 are welded as a single unit. The rotating rod 29 is fitted with a bearing seat at the mating position with the fixed box 26. By adopting the above technical solution, the worm 210 and the rotating rod 29 are welded as a single unit, which has strong transmission rigidity and no looseness. With the support of the bearing seat, the rotation is more stable, friction loss is reduced, and the transmission of the worm wheel 27 and worm 210 is accurate and reliable.
[0034] In this embodiment, the starting motor 28 drives the rotating rod 29 to rotate, which in turn drives the worm gear 210 to rotate synchronously. The worm gear 210 and the worm wheel 27 form a meshing transmission, driving the drive roller 23 to operate stably inside the strip box 21. The rotation of the drive roller 23 drives the belt 22 to run inside the strip box 21. The belt 22 drives the telescopic arm 4 to perform telescopic movements inside the basic arm 1 through the slider 24. The slider 24 slides directionally along the slide groove 25 to ensure smooth and reliable movement. When the motor 28 suddenly fails or loses power, the inherent self-locking characteristics of the worm gear 210 and worm wheel 27 mechanism can effectively lock the drive roller 23 to prevent it from rotating freely. This achieves reliable self-locking of the slider 24 and the telescopic arm 4, preventing the telescopic arm 4 from slipping unexpectedly or extending and retracting on its own, and greatly improving the operational safety and stability of the telescopic drive mechanism.
[0035] Example 2
[0036] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the scraping assembly 3 includes a scraping cover 31. A scraping cover 31 is provided at one end of the basic arm 1. Two insert plates 33 are provided near the side of the scraping cover 31 close to the basic arm 1. The insert plates 33 are connected to the scraping cover 31 by several connecting rods 32. A slot 34 adapted to the insert plate 33 is provided at one end of the basic arm 1. The insert plate 33 is connected to the basic arm 1 by fixing bolts 35. Fixing holes 36 adapted to the fixing bolts 35 are provided inside the insert plate 33. By adopting the above technical solution, the scraping cover 31 is entirely fitted onto the outer periphery of the telescopic arm 4, and the insert plates 33 at the ends of the connecting rods 32 are connected to the telescopic arm 4. The scraper cover 31 is precisely inserted and positioned into the pre-set slot 34 at the end of the basic arm 1. Then, the fixing bolt 35 is passed through the basic arm 1 and screwed into the fixing hole 36 on the insert plate 33 to complete the secure installation of the scraper cover 31. During the process of the telescopic arm 4 retracting into the basic arm 1, the scraper cover 31 can continuously scrape and clean the outer surface of the telescopic arm 4, effectively removing dust, impurities and other attachments, and preventing dirt from entering the inner cavity of the basic arm 1 with the telescopic arm 4, causing wear or jamming. The scraper assembly 3 has a simple structure and is easy to disassemble and assemble, which facilitates subsequent disassembly, maintenance and cleaning, significantly improves the cleanliness of the telescopic arm 4 during the reciprocating telescopic process and extends the service life of the mechanism.
[0037] Specifically, the basic arm 1 has through holes on both sides that are compatible with the fixing bolts 35. After the insert plate 33 is inserted into the slot 34, the side of the insert plate 33 fits tightly against the inner wall of the slot 34. By adopting the above technical solution, the through holes on both sides of the basic arm 1 facilitate the installation of the fixing bolts 35. The tight fit between the insert plate 33 and the inner wall of the slot 34 can improve the assembly positioning accuracy, prevent the scraper cover 31 from loosening or shifting, and ensure the structure is stable and reliable.
[0038] Specifically, after the scraper cover 31 is installed at one end of the basic arm 1, the side of the telescopic arm 4 is in contact with the inner wall of the scraper cover 31. The scraper cover 31 adopts a conical structure. By adopting the above technical solution, the inner wall of the scraper cover 31 is in close contact with the telescopic arm 4. With the conical structure, it can effectively scrape off surface impurities, improve the cleaning effect, and at the same time reduce the telescopic resistance and ensure smooth retraction.
[0039] Specifically, several connecting rods 32 are arranged at equal intervals, and two insert plates 33 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of one end of the scraper cover 31. By adopting the above technical solution, the connecting rods 32 are arranged at equal intervals and the insert plates 33 are symmetrically arranged, so that the scraper cover 31 is subjected to uniform and stable force, is firmly installed and not easily deformed, ensures reliable scraping operation, and improves the overall structural durability.
[0040] In this embodiment, the scraper cover 31 is fitted onto the outer periphery of the telescopic arm 4. The insert plate 33 at the end of the connecting rod 32 is precisely inserted into the pre-set slot 34 at the end of the basic arm 1 for positioning. Then, the fixing bolt 35 is passed through the basic arm 1 and screwed into the fixing hole 36 on the insert plate 33 to complete the secure installation of the scraper cover 31. During the process of the telescopic arm 4 retracting into the basic arm 1, the scraper cover 31 can continuously scrape and clean the outer surface of the telescopic arm 4, effectively removing dust, impurities and other attachments, and preventing dirt from entering the inner cavity of the basic arm 1 with the telescopic arm 4, causing wear or jamming. The scraper assembly 3 has a simple structure and is easy to disassemble and assemble, which facilitates subsequent disassembly, maintenance and cleaning, significantly improves the cleanliness of the telescopic arm 4 during the reciprocating telescopic process and extends the service life of the mechanism.
[0041] The working principle and usage process of this invention are as follows: First, install the device in a suitable position, start the motor 28 to drive the rotating rod 29 to rotate, which in turn drives the worm gear 210 to rotate synchronously. The worm gear 210 and the worm wheel 27 form a meshing transmission, driving the drive roller 23 to operate stably in the strip box 21. The rotation of the drive roller 23 drives the belt 22 to run inside the strip box 21. The belt 22 drives the telescopic arm 4 to achieve telescopic movement in the cavity of the basic arm 1 through the slider 24. The slider 24 slides directionally along the slide groove 25 to ensure smooth and reliable movement. When the motor 28 suddenly fails or loses power, relying on the inherent self-locking characteristics of the worm gear 210 and worm wheel 27 mechanism, the drive roller 23 can be effectively locked to prevent it from rotating freely, thereby achieving reliable self-locking of the slider 24 and the telescopic arm 4, preventing the telescopic arm 4 from accidentally sliding or extending and retracting on its own, and greatly improving the operational safety and stability of the telescopic drive mechanism.
[0042] The scraper cover 31 is fitted onto the outer periphery of the telescopic arm 4. The insert plate 33 at the end of the connecting rod 32 is precisely inserted into the pre-set slot 34 at the end of the basic arm 1 for positioning. Then, the fixing bolt 35 is passed through the basic arm 1 and screwed into the fixing hole 36 on the insert plate 33 to complete the secure installation of the scraper cover 31. During the process of the telescopic arm 4 retracting into the basic arm 1, the scraper cover 31 can continuously scrape and clean the outer surface of the telescopic arm 4, effectively removing dust, impurities and other attachments, and preventing dirt from entering the inner cavity of the basic arm 1 with the telescopic arm 4, causing wear or jamming. The scraper assembly 3 has a simple structure and is easy to disassemble and assemble, which facilitates subsequent disassembly, maintenance and cleaning, significantly improves the cleanliness of the telescopic arm 4 during the reciprocating telescopic process and extends the service life of the mechanism.
