Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of maintenance of hydropower stations, in particular to a leveling self-locking device for a dam maintenance platform. Background Art
[0002] Due to long-term operation, the walls of the dam body flood discharge channel will be eroded and worn to varying degrees, and regular maintenance is required. During maintenance, due to the limitations of construction conditions and the constraints of the construction environment, it is generally necessary to temporarily set up a maintenance platform to carry out maintenance work on the flood discharge channel. However, the cost of temporarily setting up a maintenance platform is high and the efficiency is low. Therefore, it is considered to use a mobile vehicle as a base to carry the maintenance platform.
[0003] Since the flood discharge surface hole flow channel has a slope, and the slope is not necessarily the same at different locations, the mobile vehicle will tilt when moving along the flood discharge surface hole flow channel, causing the maintenance platform to tilt as well, making it impossible for maintenance personnel to stand steadily.
[0004] Therefore, the prior art generally hinges the maintenance platform to the top of the mobile vehicle serving as the base, and then sets a cylinder between the two, so that the tail end of the cylinder is hinged to the base, and the push rod is hinged to the maintenance platform, so that the maintenance platform and the base can be relatively rotated by extending and retracting the cylinder push rod to adjust the angle between the two, thereby leveling the maintenance platform.
[0005] However, in actual use, since the maintenance platform (and the maintenance personnel thereon) are very heavy, relying solely on the oil cylinder to continuously support the maintenance platform can easily lead to oil cylinder failure or even failure, which in turn causes the maintenance platform to tip over instantly, posing a huge safety hazard.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0028] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the utility model more clearly understood, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with embodiments and drawings. The schematic implementation manner of the utility model and its description are only used to explain the utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model.
[0029] First, please refer to Figure 5 , the installation position of the existing leveling cylinder 10 is fully demonstrated, and by adjusting the length of the leveling cylinder 10, the maintenance platform 2 can be driven to rotate relative to the base 1 to achieve the leveling of the maintenance platform 2. In the subsequent embodiments, the setting position and connection relationship of the leveling cylinder 10 are the same as those of the above-mentioned prior art.
[0030] Example
[0031] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The present embodiment provides a self-locking device for leveling a dam maintenance platform, including a leveling cylinder 10, the leveling cylinder 10 is used to hinge with a base 1, and a push rod 11 of the leveling cylinder 10 is used to hinge with a maintenance platform 2; the second embodiment includes a self-locking plate 20, the self-locking plate 20 is connected to an end of the push rod 11 away from the leveling cylinder 10, and the self-locking plate 20 is arranged in parallel with the push rod 11, and the self-locking plate 20 is provided with a plurality of racks 21, and the racks 21 are connected to the leveling cylinder 10. The push rod 11 is arranged in parallel; the third includes a self-locking seat 30, and the self-locking seat 30 is provided with a plurality of tooth grooves 31, and the tooth grooves 31 correspond to the rack 21 one by one. When the rack 21 is engaged with the corresponding tooth grooves 31, the leveling cylinder 10 and the push rod 11 are axially locked; the fourth includes an opening and closing mechanism, and the self-locking seat 30 is connected to the leveling cylinder 10 through the opening and closing mechanism, and the opening and closing mechanism can make the tooth grooves 31 engage or disengage with the rack 21.
[0032] The leveling self-locking device for the dam body maintenance platform provided in this embodiment realizes the basic leveling function by setting the leveling cylinder 10. On this basis, by setting the self-locking plate 20 and the self-locking seat 30, and setting the rack 21 and the tooth groove 31 respectively on the two, the push rod 11 and the leveling cylinder 10 are axially locked by the meshing connection of the rack 21 and the tooth groove 31, so as to replace the direct support of the leveling cylinder 10 with the meshing connection of the rack 21 and the tooth groove 31. On the one hand, the weight of the maintenance platform 2 borne by the leveling cylinder 10 is shared. On the other hand, when the leveling cylinder 10 fails or fails, the rack 21 and the tooth groove 31 are used to lock the push rod 11 and the leveling cylinder 10 axially. The meshing and snapping replaces the support of the leveling cylinder 10, which effectively prevents the maintenance platform 2 from tipping over instantly, thereby avoiding the occurrence of danger; on this basis, an opening and closing mechanism is provided to realize the meshing or disengagement of the rack 21 and the tooth groove 31. When the push rod 11 needs to be telescopically adjusted, the opening and closing mechanism is first used to disengage the rack 21 and the tooth groove 31. After the adjustment of the push rod 11 is completed, the opening and closing mechanism is used to mesh and snap the rack 21 and the tooth groove 31; through the mutual cooperation of the above-mentioned features, the leveling self-locking device for the dam maintenance platform 2 can effectively solve the problem of failure of the cylinder supporting the maintenance platform 2.
[0033] In order to further explain the specific structure of the opening and closing mechanism, the opening and closing mechanism includes an articulated shaft 40, and the self-locking seat 30 and the leveling cylinder 10 are hinged through the articulated shaft 40; the self-locking seat 30 is provided with a planar self-locking surface 32, and the tooth groove 31 is provided on the side of the self-locking surface 32 facing the self-locking plate 20; when the self-locking surface 32 is parallel to the self-locking plate 20, the tooth groove 31 is engaged with the corresponding rack 21; when the self-locking surface 32 and the self-locking plate 20 are at a preset angle, the tooth groove 31 is disengaged from the rack 21.
[0034] Through the above arrangement, when it is necessary to disengage the rack 21 and the tooth groove 31, the self-locking seat 30 is rotated with the hinge shaft 40 as the axis to make the self-locking surface 32 gradually move away from the self-locking plate 20, so that the tooth groove 31 can gradually move away from the rack 21, and finally the tooth groove 31 is disengaged from the rack 21. When it is necessary to engage the two, it is only necessary to rotate the self-locking seat 30 in the opposite direction.
[0035] In order to prevent the push rod 11 from failing during the extension process, causing the maintenance platform 2 to tip over, the opening and closing mechanism also includes a reset torsion spring 41, which is sleeved on the hinge shaft 40, one end of the reset torsion spring 41 is connected to the self-locking seat 30, and the other end is connected to the leveling cylinder 10; the rack 21 and the tooth groove 31 are one-way stuck, and when the reset torsion spring 41 is in a natural state, the tooth groove 31 is meshed and squeezed with the rack 21; when the push rod 11 is retracted, the rack 21 is meshed and stuck with the tooth groove 31; when the push rod 11 is extended, each single tooth of the rack 21 squeezes the corresponding single groove of the meshing tooth groove 31, so that the self-locking seat 30 resists the reset torsion spring 41, and rotates around the hinge shaft 40 until any one of the single teeth jumps into the next single groove.
[0036] Through the above arrangement, when the push rod 11 is gradually extended, the single tooth cyclically moves in the order of falling into the single groove, squeezing the single groove to make the self-locking seat 30 unscrew against the reset torsion spring 41, and the single tooth falling into the next single groove. When the push rod 11 fails, the single tooth can be quickly inserted into the previous single groove under the action of the reset torsion spring 41 regardless of its position, so as to replace the leveling cylinder 10 for support by means of meshing and clamping, thereby preventing the maintenance platform 2 from tipping over.
[0037] In order to further describe the specific structure of the one-way locking of the rack 21 and the tooth groove 31, the single groove is a right-angled trapezoidal groove, the groove wall of the single groove facing the tail end of the leveling cylinder 10 is perpendicular to the self-locking surface 32, and the groove wall away from the tail end of the leveling cylinder 10 is inclined; the single tooth matches the shape of the single groove.
[0038] In order to prevent the self-locking seat 30 and the leveling cylinder 10 from gradually losing the parallel state during the rotation of the leveling cylinder 10 , the tail end of the leveling cylinder 10 is hinged to the base 1 through the hinge shaft 40 .
[0039] In order to further explain the specific structure of the self-locking seat 30, the self-locking seat 30 includes a pair of side panels 301 and a connecting plate 302. The two side panels 301 are arranged in parallel and connected by the connecting plate 302. The connecting plate 302 is arranged perpendicular to the side panels 301, and the outer surface of the connecting plate 302 is the self-locking surface 32; the side panel 301 is a rectangular plate, the length of the side panel 301 is slightly longer than the length of the leveling cylinder 10, and the width of the side panel 301 is slightly wider than the diameter of the leveling cylinder 10; one end of the side panel 301 in the length direction is hinged to the tail end of the leveling cylinder 10 through the hinge shaft 40, so that the self-locking seat 30 is covered outside the leveling cylinder 10.
[0040] Preferably, in order to achieve effective limiting, when the self-locking seat 30 rotates to the inner surface of the connecting plate 302 to abut against the leveling cylinder 10, the tooth groove 31 and the rack 21 are in a disengaged state.
[0041] In order to prevent the self-locking plate 20 from unnecessary deformation, a support rod 22 is vertically provided on one side of the self-locking plate 20 close to the tail end of the leveling cylinder 10, and the end of the support rod 22 away from the self-locking plate 20 is slidably connected to the side wall of the leveling cylinder 10; the length of the connecting plate 302 is shorter than the length of the side plate 301, and the side plate 301 is connected to the connecting plate 302 close to the head end of the leveling cylinder 10.
[0042] In order to facilitate the rotation of the self-locking seat 30 , the side plate 301 is provided with a rotary arm handle 3011 at the hinge shaft 40 .
[0043] In order to maintain the disengaged state of the rack 21 and the gear 31, the opening and closing mechanism also includes a ratchet 42, a pawl 43 and a stopper 45. The ratchet 42 is arranged parallel to the outer wall of the side panel 301 and is coaxially arranged with the hinge shaft 40; the pawl 43 is hinged to the base 1 through an engaging torsion spring 44, and when the engaging torsion spring 44 is in a natural state, the pawl 43 engages and squeezes the ratchet 42; the stopper 45 is detachably connected to the base 1, and the stopper 45 is used to prevent the pawl 43 from engaging with the ratchet 42.
[0044] When the self-locking seat 30 is manually turned to the disengaged position, the stopper 45 is pulled out to engage the pawl 43 with the ratchet 42 to maintain the disengaged state; when adjustment is required again, the pawl 43 is manually opened and the stopper 45 is inserted back to block the pawl 43.
[0045] The specific implementation methods described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the utility model in detail. It should be understood that the above description is only the specific implementation method of the utility model and is not used to limit the protection scope of the utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the utility model should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
