[0038] The following will be combined with the attached Figure 1-6 The traveling mechanism of a beam lifting machine of the present application is further described in detail.

[0039] A walking mechanism of a beam lifting machine comprises a supporting beam 1;

[0040] A pair of running wheel sets are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the support beam 1; the running wheel sets are detachably connected to the support beam 1;

[0041] The walking wheel group includes a mounting seat 2, a support frame 9, and a walking wheel. The mounting seat 2 is detachably connected to the support beam 1, and the support frame 9 is arranged vertically; the upper end of the support frame 9 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 2 along its own axis, and the lower end is rotatably connected to the walking wheel along the horizontal direction;

[0042] A steering mechanism is provided on the support frame 9 for cooperating with the support frame 9 to drive the steering of the travel wheel. A plurality of pairs of travel wheel assemblies are axially spaced apart on the support beam 1. A synchronization mechanism is provided between the plurality of travel wheel assemblies for synchronizing the steering amplitude of the plurality of travel wheel assemblies.

[0043] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the mounting seats 2 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the support beam 1 in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the axis of the support beam 1, and the mounting seats 2 are bolted to the two side surfaces of the support beam 1. The upper end of the vertically arranged support frame 9 penetrates the mounting seat 2 from bottom to top, the support frame 9 is rotationally connected to the mounting seat 2 along its own axis, and the lower end of the support frame 9 is rotationally connected to the walking wheel in a horizontal direction parallel to the axis of the support beam 1.

[0044] In actual use, on the one hand, since the upper end of the support frame 9 is connected to the mounting seat 2 for rotation along the axial direction of the support frame 9 itself, the support frame 9 can rotate in the horizontal direction under the drive of the steering mechanism, thereby driving the running wheels connected to the lower end of the support frame 9 to turn horizontally. At the same time, since a synchronization mechanism is arranged between multiple pairs of running wheel groups, under the constraint of the synchronization mechanism, the steering amplitude of each running wheel can be kept consistent, and finally the overall stable steering of the beam lifting machine is realized; on the other hand, since the mounting seat 2 is detachably connected to the support beam 1, when the running wheel group is damaged and cannot work normally, it can be replaced by disassembling the damaged parts to restore the normal use of the beam lifting machine, which is simple, convenient and cost-saving.

[0045] In other embodiments of the present application, the lower end of the support frame 9 is rotatably connected to the walking wheel along a horizontal direction perpendicular to the axis of the support beam 1.

[0046] The synchronization mechanism includes a connecting rod 11 and a transmission rod 12. The connecting rod 11 is statically connected to the support frame 9, and the two ends of the transmission rod 12 are respectively hinged to two adjacent connecting rods 11 on adjacent walking wheel groups.

[0047] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the connecting rod 11 is statically connected to the side of the support frame 9 in a horizontal direction perpendicular to the axis of the support beam 1, wherein the static connection means that the connecting rod 11 and the support frame 9 can maintain a constant relative position during actual use. When the running wheel turns, the connecting rod 11 statically connected to the side of the support frame 9 also turns together and the steering amplitude is consistent with the running wheel, and then under the transmission action of the transmission rod 12, the steering amplitude of the corresponding connecting rod 11 can be transmitted to the connecting rod 11 on the next support frame 9, so that the steering amplitudes of adjacent running wheels remain consistent, achieving overall stable steering. The overall structure of the synchronization mechanism is simple, the force transmission is stable and it is also easy to install.

[0048] Along the horizontal direction perpendicular to the axis of the support beam 1 , a cushion block 10 is detachably provided on the side of the support frame 9 , and a connecting rod 11 is detachably provided on the cushion block 10 .

[0049] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the connecting rod 11 is threadedly connected to the cushion block 10, and the cushion block 10 is fixed to the side of the support frame 9. When the synchronization mechanism components are damaged, the normal use of the device can be restored by removing the damaged components. At the same time, the connecting rod 11 is arranged on the support frame 9 through the cushion block 10, which can avoid structural damage to the support frame 9 to maintain the overall strength and stability of the support frame 9.

[0050] The cushion block 10 is provided with two mounting holes, each of which is detachably connected to a connecting rod 11; both ends of each transmission rod 12 are respectively hinged to the connecting rods 11 provided on the mutually adjacent mounting holes.

[0051] In a specific embodiment of the present application, along the axial direction of the support beam 1, a connecting rod 11 is provided on one side of the support frame 9 at both ends of the support beam 1, and two connecting rods 11 are provided on one side of the support frame 9 between the two ends of the support beam 1, so that each synchronization mechanism connecting adjacent running wheel groups includes two separately provided connecting rods 11 and a transmission rod 12. By independently providing the synchronization mechanisms between adjacent running wheel groups, when a synchronization mechanism at a certain location is damaged, there is no need to dismantle and replace the overall synchronization mechanism of the beam lifting machine, which further improves the convenience of component adjustment.

[0052] Along the horizontal direction perpendicular to the axis of the support beam 1 , cushion blocks 10 are detachably provided on both sides of the support frame 9 .

[0053] In a specific embodiment of the present application, a connecting rod 11 is provided on both sides of the support frame 9 at both ends of the support beam 1 along the axial direction of the support beam 1, and two connecting rods 11 are provided on both sides of the support frame 9 between the two ends of the support beam 1, so that adjacent walking wheel groups are connected through two parallel synchronous mechanisms, so as to improve the stability of the synchronous mechanism in controlling the rotation amplitude of the walking wheel group.

[0054] The steering mechanism includes a driving mechanism 8 and a rotating base 4;

[0055] The upper end of the support frame 9 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 2 through the rotating shaft 3, and the rotating base 4 is fixedly sleeved on the rotating shaft 3; the driving mechanism 8 is axially retractable and horizontally arranged on the bottom surface of the support beam 1, one end of the driving mechanism 8 is rotatably connected to the support beam 1 along the vertical direction, and the other end is rotatably connected to the rotating base 4 along the vertical direction.

[0056] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the cooperation between the driving mechanism 8, the rotating base 4 and the bottom surface of the support beam 1 is based on the working principle of the crank-connecting rod structure. Specifically, the rotating base 4 extends the ear plate horizontally to one side, and the driving mechanism 8 is arranged on the same side of the ear plate along the horizontal direction perpendicular to the axis of the support beam 1. The driving mechanism 8 is a hydraulic cylinder, and the telescopic end of the hydraulic cylinder is hinged to the ear plate in the vertical direction, and the cylinder end of the hydraulic cylinder is rotatably connected to the bottom surface of the support beam 1 in the vertical direction.

[0057] Along the axial direction of the support beam 1, a plurality of fixing mechanisms 6 are arranged at intervals on the bottom surface of the support beam 1, each fixing mechanism 6 is located between each pair of walking wheel sets, and the plurality of fixing mechanisms 6 are detachably connected to the support beam 1;

[0058] The two driving mechanisms 8 of each pair of traveling wheel sets are rotatably arranged on both sides of the corresponding fixing mechanism 6 .

[0059] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the number of fixing mechanisms 6 is the same as the number of walking wheel groups. Each fixing mechanism 6 is provided with two rotating cylinders 7 on both sides of the axial direction of the support beam 1. The rotating cylinders 7 are arranged in the fixing mechanism 6 for rotation along the vertical direction. The cylinder end of each hydraulic cylinder is clamped and fixed to the rotating cylinder 7 on the same side to avoid structural damage to the hydraulic cylinder and facilitate disassembly and replacement.

[0060] A plurality of fixing mechanisms 6 are detachably connected to the support beam 1 via the fixing rod 5;

[0061] The fixing rod 5 is axially telescopically arranged at the center of the fixing mechanism 6 .

[0062] In the specific embodiment of the present application, the upper end of the fixing rod 5 vertically penetrates the fixing mechanism 6 and is threadedly connected to the bottom surface of the support beam 1, and the lower end of the fixing rod 5 can be axially retracted, and the number of fixing rods 5 is the same as the number of fixing mechanisms 6. When the beam lifting machine is stationary, in order to reduce the squeezing strength of the upper structure on the running wheels and reduce the loss of the running wheels, the fixing rod 5 located at the center of the fixing mechanism 6 is stretched to temporarily support the beam lifting machine.

[0063] Along the horizontal direction parallel to the axis of the support beam 1, the walking wheels are rotatably connected to both sides of the support frame 9.

[0064] In a specific embodiment of the present application, along the horizontal direction parallel to the axis of the support beam 1, both sides of the lower end of the support frame 9 are rotatably connected to a running wheel respectively to improve the working stability of the running wheel group and the supporting strength for the upper structure.
