Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of crane clamp cable storage, in particular to a connecting mechanism and a grid cage type cable storage device. Background Art

[0002] During the lifting process, most production conditions require the rotation of the ingot to facilitate stacking or loading, so the clamp needs a rotating function. The rotation of the clamp is driven by a motor. The motor power source leads a cable from the crane trolley to the clamp. The traditional retractable device is a cable reel. There is a spring inside the cable reel. The cable is pulled by the elasticity of the spring. As the clamp rises and falls, the cable is retracted and retracted to achieve the purpose of storage. Due to the stress on the cable and frequent work, a new cable will bulge, break, and break after about a month of use. If the clamp cannot rotate normally due to cable or reel failure, it will affect the normal production operation and even cause unplanned shutdown of the casting machine. If the basket is used directly for storage, the cables are directly piled up in the frame, which is too messy and not conducive to retraction. Therefore, a connection structure is designed to increase the storage space while assisting the winding storage, which effectively increases the service life of the cable. Utility Model Content

[0038] Preferably, the movable rod 101 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the circular groove 201b, the circular groove 201b passes through the upper and lower ends of the first circular frame 201, and a circular hole is formed on its outer wall, the protrusion 102 is placed in the installation cavity 201a, the spring 104 is placed in the groove 201b-2, and one end of the spring 104 is fixedly connected to one end of the inner wall of the groove 201b-2; the outer wall of the clamp 103 is provided with a hole 103c, and the outer wall ring of the first circular frame 201 is provided with a convex shaft 201c, and the convex shaft 201c is rotatably connected to the hole 103c; the outer wall of the first circular frame 201 is provided with a through hole 201d, and the clamp 103 passes through the through hole 201d and is placed outside the first circular frame 201.

[0040] Example 3

[0041] Reference Figure 1 to Figure 7 , is the third embodiment of the utility model, this embodiment provides a grid cage type cable storage device, this embodiment is based on the previous embodiment, and is different from the previous embodiment in that: the storage assembly 300 is a device for storing cables, which includes a third circular frame 301, and a storage basket 302 is arranged around one end of the third circular frame 301, the storage basket 302 provides a storage space, and a heat insulation board 303 is fixedly connected to one end of the storage basket 302, and a round table 304 is arranged at the center of one end of the heat insulation board 303, and the round table 304 is for allowing the cables to be coiled and stacked; the third circular frame 301 is movably connected to the first circular frame 201 by the clamp 103, and a rectangular protrusion is arranged at the lower end of the clamp 103, so that the clamp 103 can limit the third circular frame 301 when clamping and connecting.

[0042] Preferably, when the clamp is rising, the narrowed mouth of the connecting component 200 faces the storage component 300. As the cable falls due to gravity, it will not swing too far from the center of the truncated table 302 when it swings left and right, and will automatically coil around the truncated table 302. The cable is not subjected to tension during the clamp's descent to avoid damage to the cable. The truncated table 302 allows the cable to coil inside the entire storage basket 302 without disturbing the cable. It adopts a cone shape that is small on the top and large on the bottom to accommodate a larger swing range of the cable left and right. The heat insulation board 303 can isolate most of the heat radiation from the ingot and protect the cable from being burned by high temperature.

[0043] In general, the whole device is designed to utilize the cable's own ability to coil and store, while preventing the cable from being pulled for a long time during storage, and reducing the risk of cable damage. The upper and lower split design increases the storage space and makes it easier for staff to perform maintenance. The specific storage process is as follows:

[0044] S1: The staff holds the installation assembly 200, and makes the clamp 103 face the third circular frame 301. After aligning the first circular frame 201 and the third circular frame 301, the clamp 103 is forced downward, and the clamp 103 rotates inward to clamp the third circular frame 301;

[0045] S2: After the entire storage device is installed, the cable is placed in the middle of the rotating member 204 and the semicircular ring 204a, and then pressed to connect, and the power switch is turned on. The rotating member 204 and the semicircular ring 204a can perform circular motion, and the upper end of the cable will rotate under the action of other devices. Under the joint action of the rotating member 204 and the semicircular ring 204a, it can be coiled and stored along the round table 304 more accurately;

[0046] S3: When disassembling the connecting component 200, press and hold the button 101a to apply downward force to the movable rod 101, so that the clamp 103 opens to release the limit on the third circular frame 301. Since there are four clamping components 100 in total, the staff needs to operate two clamping components 100 twice at the same time to completely disassemble it.

[0047] Importantly, it should be noted that the construction and arrangement of the present application shown in a plurality of different exemplary embodiments are only exemplary. Although only a few embodiments are described in detail in this disclosure, it should be readily understood by those who refer to this disclosure that many modifications are possible (e.g., the size, scale, structure, shape and ratio of various elements, and parameter values ​​(e.g., temperature, pressure, etc.), installation arrangements, use of materials, color, directional changes, etc.) without substantially departing from the novel teachings and advantages of the subject matter described in the application. For example, the element shown as integrally formed can be composed of multiple parts or elements, the position of the element can be inverted or otherwise changed, and the nature or number or position of the discrete element can be changed or changed. Therefore, all such modifications are intended to be included in the scope of the present utility model. The order or sequence of any process or method steps can be changed or reordered according to alternative embodiments. In the claims, any "device plus function" clause is intended to cover the structure of performing the function described herein, and is not only structurally equivalent but also equivalent structure. Without departing from the scope of the present invention, other substitutions, modifications, changes and omissions may be made in the design, operating conditions and arrangement of the exemplary embodiments. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to a specific embodiment, but extends to various modifications that still fall within the scope of the appended claims.

[0048] Additionally, in order to provide a concise description of example embodiments, all features of an actual embodiment (ie, those features that are not relevant to the best mode presently contemplated for carrying out the invention or those that are not relevant to implementing the invention) may not be described.

[0049] It will be appreciated that in the development of any actual implementation, as in any engineering or design project, numerous implementation-specific decisions may be made. Such a development effort may be complex and time-consuming, but will be a routine task of design, fabrication, and production for those of ordinary skill having the benefit of this disclosure without undue experimentation.

[0050] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in the field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the utility model, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
