Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of winding equipment, and in particular to a hydraulic winch with a belt brake device. Background Art

[0002] Traditional winches generally use input-end braking, which is a multi-disc friction brake inside the transmission device, and the opening and closing of the brake is automatically controlled by the shuttle valve on the motor. This braking method brakes at the high-speed end instead of at the end of the transmission, so it cannot meet the safety requirements for some places with higher requirements.

Especially in some marine machinery, due to the ups and downs of waves, there is a side gap between the transmission device, especially the gears. If there is no brake on the drum side, the drum will rotate back and forth under the drive of external force, which is easy to damage the internal gears. Summary of the invention

[0007] As a preferred embodiment, the band brake mechanism also includes a short bracket and a high bracket fixedly connected to the frame, the short bracket is connected to the telescopic rod via a hinge structure, the high bracket is connected to a swing arm via a hinge structure, one end of the swing arm is connected to the movable end of the telescopic rod via a hinge structure, and the other end is connected to the lower end of one of the brake bands via a hinge structure, the lower end of the other brake band is movably connected to the high bracket, thereby limiting the freedom of movement of the brake band.

[0008] Preferably, the lower end of the other brake belt is connected to a connecting rod via a hinge structure, and the end of the connecting rod away from the brake belt is rotatably connected to the high bracket via a hinge structure, so that the upper brake belt has a larger range of motion, better follow-up flexibility, and can fit more closely with the brake cylinder of the reel.

[0009] Preferably, the swing arm comprises an integral long handle portion and a short handle portion, and there is an angle between the long handle portion and the short handle portion, and the angle is in the range of 100° to 120°.

[0012] Preferably, a supporting shaft is fixedly connected to the other shaft frame, the supporting shaft is coaxial with the reel, and the supporting shaft is suitable for cooperating with the reel to form a rotating pair, so that the reel will rotate more smoothly.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are:

[0024] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the description and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0025] The terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof in the specification and claims of this application are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product or apparatus comprising a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or apparatuses.

[0026] like Figure 1-5 The hydraulic winch with a band brake device shown in the figure comprises a fixedly arranged frame 1, on which a driving mechanism 2, a drum 4 and a band brake mechanism 5 are arranged, the movement of the drum 4 is controlled by the driving mechanism 2 and the band brake mechanism 5, the driving mechanism 2 is fixedly connected to the frame 1, and the drum 4 is rotatably connected to the frame 1, and the specific structure of the frame 1 comprises a base 101, on the upper surface of the base 101 a pair of shaft frames 102 are fixedly connected, the planes where the two shaft frames 102 are located are parallel and symmetrically arranged, one shaft frame 102 is fixedly connected to the driving mechanism 2, usually, the driving mechanism 2 adopts a hydraulic motor, which is connected to the hydraulic system, the output end of the driving mechanism 2 is fixedly connected to one end of the drum 4, the drum 4 is coaxial with the output shaft of the driving mechanism 2, the drum 4 is driven by the driving mechanism 2, and the other end of the drum 4 is rotatably connected to another shaft frame 102, in fact, the other shaft frame 102 is also fixedly connected to a supporting shaft 3, the supporting shaft 3 is coaxial with the drum 4, and the supporting shaft 3 just cooperates with the drum 4 to form a rotating pair, thereby maintaining the stability of the drum 4 when rotating.

[0027] Both ends of the drum 4 have coaxial hubs 401, and the diameter of the hub 401 is significantly larger than the diameter of the drum 4, which is used to prevent the wound cable from slipping off the two ends of the drum 4. The end surface of the hub 401 facing away from the drum 4 has a brake cylinder 402, and the belt brake mechanism 5 is sleeved outside the brake cylinder 402, thereby achieving braking of the end of the winch transmission.

[0028] The band brake mechanism 5 includes a telescopic rod 502 and a pair of brake bands 506. The telescopic rod 502 adopts a hydraulic cylinder and is also connected to the hydraulic system. An adjustment component 570 is connected between the upper ends of the two brake bands 506. The specific structure of the adjustment component 570 includes a pair of follower screws 572. The outer sides of the two follower screws 572 are provided with threads with opposite rotation directions, one is left-handed and the other is right-handed. Usually, the pitch of the left-handed thread and the right-handed thread is equal. The outer sleeves of the two follower screws 572 are provided with the same adjustment nut 5 71. In order to cooperate with the two follower screws 572 with different thread rotation directions, the inner wall of the adjusting nut 571 is provided with two sets of internal threads with opposite rotation directions, so as to respectively achieve thread cooperation with the external threads on the outer surfaces of the two follower screws 572. When the adjusting nut 571 rotates, the two follower screws 572 can be extended or retracted at the same time. The ends of the two follower screws 572 extending out of the adjusting nut 571 are respectively connected to the upper ends of the two brake bands 506 through the hinge structure 508, so that the upper ends of the two brake bands 506 can rotate relatively.

[0029] The lower ends of the two brake belts 506 are driven by the telescopic rod 502 to move closer to or away from each other, thereby realizing the contraction and release of the belt brake mechanism 5. The belt brake mechanism 5 also includes a short bracket 501 and a high bracket 505 fixedly connected to the frame 1. The upper end height of the high bracket 505 is significantly higher than that of the short bracket 501, which is convenient for configuring the movable structure. The short bracket 501 is connected to the telescopic rod 502 through a hinge structure 508, which is actually a rotationally connected end of the cylinder of the telescopic rod 502. The high bracket 505 is connected to a swing arm 530 through a hinge structure 508. The swing arm 530 is a curved plate-like structure. The hinge structure 508 is located near the center of the swing arm 530. One end of the swing arm 530 One end is connected to the movable end of the telescopic rod 502 through a hinge structure 508, and the other end is connected to the lower end of a brake band 506 through another hinge structure 508. In fact, the swing arm 530 includes an integrated long handle portion 531 and a short handle portion 532. There is an angle between the extension directions of the long handle portion 531 and the short handle portion 532, and the angle range is usually between 100° and 120°. The swing arm 530 is rotatably connected to the high bracket 505 through the hinge structure 508 at the transition point between the long handle portion 531 and the short handle portion 532. Therefore, the long handle portion 531 and the short handle portion 532 both rotate within a certain range around the axis of the hinge structure 508, and the long handle portion 531 and the short handle portion 532 actually constitute a lever structure.

[0030] The lower end of the other brake band 506 is movably connected to the high bracket 505. In fact, the lower end of the other brake band 506 is connected to the connecting rod 504 through a hinge structure 508. The connecting rod 504 is rotatably connected to the high bracket 505 through the hinge structure 508 at the end away from the brake band 506. In this way, the swing range of the other brake band 506 will be larger, and the flexibility of adaptive rotation when subjected to force will be higher.

[0031] Working principle: The driving mechanism 2 driven by hydraulic pressure is installed on the frame 1, the output shaft of the driving mechanism 2 and the drum 4 are fixed together by bolts, the right side of the drum 4 is installed on the supporting shaft 3 through a bearing, and the wheel hub 401 of the drum 4 is provided with a brake cylinder 402, which can cooperate with the installed belt brake mechanism 5, and the belt brake mechanism 5 is composed of an adjusting nut 571, two brake belts 506 at the bottom and the top, a connecting rod 504, a bracket, and a hydraulic telescopic rod 502. When the telescopic rod 502 is supplied with oil and retracted, the brake belt 506 at the bottom tightly hugs the brake cylinder 402 of the drum 4 under the tension at the end of the short handle 532, producing a braking effect. When the driving mechanism 2 of the winch starts to supply oil, The shuttle valve on the hydraulic motor automatically supplies oil to the telescopic rod 502 in the reverse direction, allowing the telescopic rod 502 to extend, and the short handle 532 swings in the reverse direction to release the brake band 506, thereby opening the brake and the drum 4 can rotate freely; when the machine is shut down, the telescopic rod 502 obtains positive oil supply again, so that the telescopic rod 502 automatically resets, and the brake can hold the winch transmission end again to achieve braking; when the brake band 506 of the belt brake mechanism 5 is obviously worn and thinned due to long-term use, the gap between the brake band 506 and the wheel hub 401 of the drum 4 in the non-braking state can be changed by rotating the adjusting nut 571, so as to maintain the braking force during braking, thereby extending the effective use time of the brake band 506.

Those skilled in the art should understand that the present application is not limited by the above embodiments, and the above embodiments and the specification only describe the principles of the present application. The present application may have various changes and improvements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, and these changes and improvements fall within the scope of the present application for which protection is sought.
