Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of water conservancy and hydropower engineering, in particular to a hanging shaft type gantry crane grounding device. Background Art

[0002] In water conservancy and hydropower projects, especially various hydraulic gate projects and pump station projects, gantry cranes are widely used to open and close gates and perform equipment maintenance. All gantry cranes used outdoors must be well grounded between the mobile frame and the track. In case of thunderstorms, the current generated by lightning strikes is introduced into the earth, and the fault current generated by equipment leakage is connected to the earth. If the gantry crane grounding device is not properly set, the lightning current and fault current will enter the earth through the bearings of each walking mechanism, causing bearing damage and electrical corrosion of the bearings, thus affecting the safe operation of the gantry crane; if the current cannot be connected to the earth, it may even pose a threat to the lives of the staff on the gantry crane. These are all tests for our operation management personnel.

[0003] At present, the lightning protection and fault grounding methods of gantry cranes are mainly through direct wheel grounding or installation of tension spring contact shoes for grounding. When the wheels are directly grounded, the lightning current or fault current will directly connect to the earth through the wheel bearings, which may cause bearing damage and affect the safe operation of the gantry crane equipment; when the tension spring contact shoes are installed for grounding, the tension of the tension spring makes the two contact shoes stick to the upper surface of the track in the process of tightening each other, but when the track surface encounters obstacles, abnormal protrusions or track joints, the tension spring will cause the contact shoes to rotate or even get stuck to each other, thereby losing the grounding effect and affecting the operation of the gantry crane. These grounding methods all have certain safety hazards, threatening equipment and personal safety. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to make up for the deficiencies of the prior art, the utility model provides a suspended-axle door machine grounding device, which has good current conductivity, not only avoids the risk of bearing damage in the direct grounding of the wheel, but also does not cause the situation of spring-type contact shoes getting stuck, and is safe and reliable.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve the above technical problems is:

[0006] A hanging shaft type door machine grounding device comprises a grounding box for fixing to a door machine moving frame, a guide sleeve is arranged in the grounding box, a hanging shaft is slidably connected in the guide sleeve, the lower end of the hanging shaft passes through the bottom plate of the grounding box and is connected to a grounding copper plate, a pressure spring is arranged between the grounding copper plate and the bottom plate, the bottom of the grounding copper plate is a sliding contact bottom surface, the outer periphery of the sliding contact bottom surface is arranged as a sliding contact inclined surface inclined outward and upward, and a cable connector is arranged on the grounding box to connect the grounding cable to the hanging shaft through it.

[0007] Furthermore, the upper end of the suspension shaft passes through the top of the grounding box to form a suspension portion.

[0008] Furthermore, a limiting ring is connected to the suspension shaft between the base plate and the guide sleeve.

[0009] Furthermore, the limiting ring is a stroke adjusting nut arranged on the hanging shaft.

[0010] Furthermore, the suspension shaft includes a suspension rod and a grounding rod connected up and down, the lower end of the grounding rod is fixedly connected to the grounding copper plate, the upper end of the grounding rod passes through the guide sleeve and is connected to the lower end of the suspension rod, and one end of the grounding cable is connected to the upper end of the grounding rod.
