The trolley is located below the main beam and moves along the length of the main beam.

The traditional trolley end beams are split, that is, there is a main beam end beam on each end of the same side of the two main beams, there is no connection between the two main beam end beams, and there is a suspension wheel set at each end of each main beam end beam. When the crane trolley is loaded, it will apply tension to the main beam. The tension on the inside of the main beam is greater than the tension on the outside of the main beam.

The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0029] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 An embodiment of the utility model provides a trolley end beam connected by an n-type flexible connecting beam, which is symmetrically arranged at both ends of two parallel main beams 1, and is used to realize the connection between the two main beams 1 and the trolley track 2; it is characterized in that it includes two main beam end beams 3 and an n-type flexible connecting beam 4.

[0030] Two main beam end beams 3 are respectively arranged at one end of two main beams 1 on a trolley track 2; the main beam end beam 3 includes an end beam body 31 fixedly arranged on the top surface of the corresponding main beam 1, and the end beam body 31 is sleeved on the circumferential outer side of the corresponding trolley track 2; the end beam body 31 is symmetrically arranged on both sides along the length direction of the trolley track 2 with a suspension wheel group 32, which is used to realize the movement of the main beam 1 on the trolley track 2.

[0031] The end beam body 31 as a whole does not contact the trolley track 2, so as to prevent interference and affect the operation of the trolley.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, the end beam body 31 is U-shaped, and the upper ends of the two side plates of the U-shaped end beam body 31 are bent inwards to prevent it from falling off.

[0033] The bent portion of the end beam 31 is higher than the upper surface of the trolley track 2 .

[0034] In a preferred embodiment, reinforcement brackets 33 are fixedly provided on the outer sides of the two side plates of the end beam body 31 to reinforce the connection between the end beam body 31 and the main beam 1 .

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, the suspension wheel set 32 ​​includes a U-shaped suspension bracket 321 fixedly arranged at one end of the end beam body 31, and wheels 322 are symmetrically and rotatably arranged on the inner sides of the two side plates of the U-shaped suspension bracket 321 corresponding to the trolley track 2.

[0036] The wheel 322 in each suspension wheel group 32 may be a single wheel or a plurality of wheels connected in transmission, preferably two wheels connected in transmission.

[0037] Among them, one wheel 322 in the main beam end beam 3 is connected to the motor as the driving wheel, preferably the wheel 322 away from the trolley, and the other is the driven wheel. The driving wheel drives the end beam body 31 to move, and then drives the driven wheel connected to the end beam body 31 to operate.

[0038] Further optimized, the U-shaped suspension bracket 321 is symmetrically fixed with two groups of baffles 323 on both sides along the length direction of the trolley track 2, and each group of baffles 323 is located on both sides of the trolley track 2.

[0039] The connecting beam 4 is arranged between two end beam bodies 31 on a trolley track 2, and includes a vertical beam 41 fixedly arranged on the top surface of the end beam body 31, and a horizontal brace 42 parallel to the trolley track 2 is fixedly arranged between the two vertical beams 41.

[0040] The vertical beam 41 is preferably fixed in the middle of the corresponding end beam body 31 .

[0041] In a preferred embodiment, the vertical beam 41 and the horizontal brace 42 are both made of I-beams.

[0042] Working principle of the utility model: The utility model is applicable to suspended double-beam cranes. Traditional suspended double-beam cranes include two parallel main beams. A trolley with a lifting mechanism is suspended between the main beams. The trolley is not shown in the figure. The trolley is located below the two main beams and moves along the length of the main beams. The two main beams and the trolley end beams on both sides constitute a trolley. The trolley moves along two I-shaped trolley tracks perpendicular to the main beams. Traditional trolley end beams are split, that is, there is a main beam end beam on one end of the same side of the two main beams. There is no connection between the two main beam end beams. There is a suspension wheel set at each end of each main beam end beam. Please refer to Figure 5 Schematic diagram, line segment AB and line segment CD represent the two main beam end beams on the same side, and A, B, C, and D represent a suspended wheel group respectively.

[0043] When the trolley suspended between the two main beams and moving along the length direction of the main beams is loaded, it will exert tension on the main beams, and the tension on the inner side of each main beam is greater than the tension on the outer side. When the trolley load exceeds a certain range or the trolley is running, the large tension will cause the main beam to tilt, and then drive the main beam end beams AB and CD connected to it to tilt. Because the main beam end beams AB and CD are connected to the trolley track by the wheels of the suspension wheel group, the tilt of the main beam end beam will cause the wheels of the suspension wheel groups A and D on the outer side of the main beam end beam to not touch the ground, affecting the operation of the trolley. Therefore, a cross brace with certain flexibility and resilience is needed to support the two main beam end beams to keep them horizontal; however, changes in the main beam end beams AB and CD will affect the force on the trolley suspension bracket under the main beam, so the flexibility and resilience cannot be too high, and a certain buffer is needed to control the amplitude and frequency of changes, so an n-type structure is considered; the deflection is transmitted and alleviated step by step, and finally the bending moment M1 is shared by the n-type structure. Since the end beam body is more rigid and the vertical beam is shorter, the rotation angle θ of point E can be considered to be the rotation angle θ of AB, and CD is symmetrical with it, and then the deflection range of the main beam end beam is determined according to the performance parameters of the cross brace, and the installation error of the main beam is obtained.

[0044] Under the action of the n-type flexible connecting beam, the wheels of the suspended wheel group can be kept from leaving the track within a certain range, thereby maintaining the normal operation of the trolley; and through the support and buffering of the n-type flexible connecting beam, the amplitude and frequency of the main beam change can be reduced, thereby making the trolley more stable; at the same time, the n-type flexible connecting beam connects the two main beam end beams, allowing the two main beam end beams to interact with each other, so that during the operation of the trolley, there is not only the drive of the active wheel, but also the force between the main beam end beams, which reduces the force on the fixing bolts, thereby reducing the consumption of related components and extending their service life.

For example, "connection" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium.
