[0020] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0021] The utility model provides a technical solution: Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a height-adjustable gantry crane includes a mounting frame 1, a fixing plate 2 is fixedly connected to the middle of the upper end of the mounting frame 1, a rope hoist 3 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the fixing plate 2, a hook 12 is fixedly connected to the rope protruding end of the rope hoist 3, two mounting plates 7 are arranged below the mounting frame 1, the mounting plates 7 are slidably connected to the mounting frame 1 through a sliding assembly, an adjustment mechanism is arranged between the two mounting plates 7, bottom plates 4 are arranged below the two mounting plates 7, the two bottom plates 4 are respectively connected to the two mounting plates 7 through a lifting mechanism, and two universal wheels 6 are respectively arranged on both sides of the bottom of the bottom plate 4.
[0022] The adjusting mechanism is composed of a No. 2 double-headed motor 13, a No. 2 lead screw 14 and a vertical plate 15. The No. 2 double-headed motor 13 is arranged between the two mounting plates 7. The No. 2 double-headed motor 13 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the mounting frame 1. The ends of the two output shafts of the No. 2 double-headed motor 13 are fixedly connected with the No. 2 lead screw 14. The threads of the two No. 2 lead screws 14 have opposite rotation directions. The other ends of the two No. 2 lead screws 14 respectively pass through the two mounting plates 7 and are connected to the two mounting plates 7 by threaded cooperation. The ends of the two No. 2 lead screws 14 are fixedly connected with the vertical plate 15. The two vertical plates 15 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting frame 1.
[0023] When in use, start the No. 2 double-headed motor 13 to drive the two No. 2 lead screws 14 to rotate, and the mounting plate 7 is restricted by the sliding component and cannot rotate. When the two No. 2 lead screws 14 with opposite thread rotation directions rotate, the two mounting plates 7 will move closer to or away from each other, thereby controlling the distance between the two base plates 4, so that the crane can be applied to more working environments of different sizes. The universal wheels 6 at the bottom of the base plate 4 can ensure that the two mounting plates 7 are not hindered by the ground when moving.
[0024] The sliding assembly includes a movable block 16 . The upper end of the mounting plate 7 is fixedly connected with two movable blocks 16 . The two movable blocks 16 are slidably mounted in a movable groove 17 formed at the bottom of the mounting plate 7 .
[0025] The sliding fit between the spring movable block 16 and the movable groove 17 can slide and connect the mounting plate 7 to the bottom of the mounting frame 1 .
[0026] Among them, the lifting mechanism is composed of a No. 1 double-headed motor 8, a No. 1 lead screw 9, a slider 11 and a support column 5. The No. 1 double-headed motor 8 is fixedly connected to the middle part of the base plate 4. The two output ends of the No. 1 double-headed motor 8 are respectively fixedly connected to the No. 1 lead screw 9. The threads of the two No. 1 lead screws 9 have opposite rotation directions. The two ends of the two No. 1 lead screws 9 are respectively rotatably connected in two slide grooves 10 opened at the upper end of the base plate 4. The two slide grooves 10 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the No. 1 double-headed motor 8. Slide blocks 11 are respectively slidably installed in the two slide grooves 10. The two No. 1 lead screws 9 respectively penetrate the two sliders 11 and are respectively connected to the two sliders 11 by threaded cooperation. The upper ends of the two sliders 11 are rotatably connected to the support columns 5. The other ends of the two support columns 5 are rotatably connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 7. The two support columns 5 are distributed in an eight-shaped shape.
[0027] When in use, start the No. 1 double-headed motor 8 to drive the two No. 1 lead screws 9 to rotate, thereby controlling the two sliders 11 to move closer to or away from each other. When the two sliders 11 move closer to each other, the two support columns 5 will change to a vertical state, thereby increasing the height of the mounting frame 1, and making it easier for the crane to be used for objects of different heights.
[0028] The utility model provides a height-adjustable gantry crane, and the specific working principle is as follows:
[0029] When in use, start the No. 1 double-headed motor 8 to drive the two No. 1 lead screws 9 to rotate, thereby controlling the two sliders 11 to move closer to or away from each other. When the two sliders 11 move closer to each other, the two support columns 5 will change to a vertical state, thereby increasing the height of the mounting frame 1, and making it convenient for the crane to be suitable for objects of different heights. Start the No. 2 double-headed motor 13 to drive the two No. 2 lead screws 14 to rotate, and the mounting plate 7 cannot rotate due to the restriction of the sliding assembly. When the two No. 2 lead screws 14 with opposite thread rotation directions rotate, the two mounting plates 7 will move closer to or away from each other, thereby controlling the distance between the two base plates 4, so that the crane can be suitable for more working environments of different sizes. The universal wheels 6 at the bottom of the base plate 4 can ensure that the two mounting plates 7 are not hindered by the ground when moving.
[0030] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
