DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0026] Example 1

[0027] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the device includes a collar 1, a bracket 2 and a hanging ring 3. The bracket 2 is fixedly arranged on the top of the collar 1, and the hanging ring 3 is fixedly arranged on the top of the bracket. A clamping assembly 4 is arranged inside the collar 1, and a driving assembly 5 is arranged on the outer wall of the collar 1. The clamping assembly 4 includes a rotating sleeve 401 connected to the four corners inside the collar 1, and a screw 402 is arranged on the internal thread of the rotating sleeve 401, and a connecting plate 403 is fixedly arranged on the inner side of the screw 402, and a plurality of springs 404 are fixedly arranged on the inner side of the connecting plate 403. A clamping plate 405 is fixed to one end of the spring 404 away from the connecting plate 403, and a sliding rod 406 fixed on the outside of the clamping plate 405 slides through the connecting plate 403 and the ring 1. The driving assembly 5 includes a motor 501 fixed to the outer wall of the ring 1, and a driving gear 502 fixedly sleeved on the outside of the head end of the motor 501 is meshed with the teeth of an annular rack 503 connected to the top of the ring 1, and a driven gear 504 fixedly sleeved on the outside of the rotating sleeve 401 is meshed with the teeth of the annular rack 503.

[0028] The staff first connects the lifting end of the crane with the hanging ring 3, and then uses the crane to cover the material with the hanging ring 3 together with the bracket 2 and the ring 1, and then turns on the forward rotation function of the motor 501. The motor 501 drives the active gear 502 to control the annular rack 503 together with the driven gear 504 and the rotating sleeve 401 to rotate. Through the threaded transmission of the rotating sleeve 401 and the screw 402, the screw 402 drives the connecting plate 403 together with the spring 404, the clamping plate 405 and the sliding rod 406 to move along the direction of the material. At this time, the four clamping plates 405 simultaneously apply clamping force to the four sides of the material. Through the reaction force of the material, the clamping plate 405 drives the sliding rod 406 to move along the outer direction of the ring 1, and the spring 404 is deformed. Through the reaction force of the spring 404, the clamping plate 405 applies a soft clamping force to the material.

[0029] Example 2

[0030] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6As shown, the center of the annular rack 503 is concentric with the center of the ring 1, and a guide groove 6 is integrally provided at the top of the inner part of the ring 1 in an annular direction. The center of the guide groove 6 is concentric with the center of the annular rack 503, and sliders 7 are slidably connected on the left and right sides of the inner part of the guide groove 6. The cross-sections of the slider 7 and the guide groove 6 are T-shaped. The top surface of the slider 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the annular rack 503. A pressure sensor 8 is fixedly provided at the middle end of the inner side of the connecting plate 403, and a pressure block 9 fixedly provided at the middle end of the outer side of the splint 405 corresponds to the pressure sensor 8 one by one. A warning light 10 is fixedly provided on the top of the connecting plate 403, and a controller 11 fixedly provided on the outer wall of the bracket 2 is connected to the warning light 10 and the pressure sensor 8 through a wire. The bracket 2 is designed in a U-shaped direction, and the angle between the splints 405 is 90 degrees. A counterweight 12 is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the ring 1, and the counterweight 12 and the motor 501 are symmetrically distributed with the center of the ring as the center.

[0031] According to the operation mode in Example 1, when the active gear 502 controls the annular rack 503 to rotate, the annular rack 503 drives the slider 7 to move along the direction of the guide groove 6, thereby ensuring that the center of the annular rack 503 is always concentric with the center of the ring 1 when rotating. In addition, when the clamping plate 405 drives the slide bar 406 to move along the direction of the outer side of the ring 1, the clamping plate 405 drives the pressure block 9 to apply an extrusion force to the pressure sensor 8. When the force of the extrusion force on the pressure sensor 8 reaches the set value, the warning light 10 lights up. At this time, the clamping force of the clamping plate 405 on the material has reached the required value, and the clamping force of the four clamping plates 405 on the material is consistent. The staff then turns off the motor 501, and then uses the crane to stack the device together with the material, and then turns on the reversing function of the motor 501, so that the clamping plate 405 is reset, that is, the clamping force of the clamping plate 405 on the material is eliminated, and the staff repeats the above steps to grab and stack the new material. The design of the counterweight 12 can prevent the collar 1 from being in a tilted state when it is sleeved on the material, thereby ensuring the stability of the collar 1 when it is sleeved on the material.
