When the cable laying operation is completed, the two hanging arms 310 can remove the cable drum 600 from the two supports 210 and put it back on the storage rack 700. There is no need to manually lift the cable drum 600 throughout the process, which can save labor and cost.

[0037] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The boom 310 includes a first arm 311, a first telescopic cylinder 312, a second arm 313 and a second telescopic cylinder 314. One end of the first arm 311 is hinged to the walking chassis 100, and both ends of the first telescopic cylinder 312 are respectively hinged to the first arm 311 and the walking chassis 100. The second arm 313 is hinged to the end of the first arm 311 away from the walking chassis 100, one end of the second telescopic cylinder 314 is hinged to the first arm 311, and the other end of the second telescopic cylinder 314 is hinged to the second arm 313. The first telescopic cylinder 312 is extended and retracted to adjust the angle between the first arm 311 and the walking chassis 100, and the second telescopic cylinder 314 is extended and retracted to adjust the angle between the second arm 313 and the first arm 311, so that the position of the end of the second arm 313 away from the first arm 311 changes, so that the end of the second arm 313 away from the first arm 311 can carry the cable reel 600 between the storage rack 700 and the support assembly 200.

[0038] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 4 One end of the second arm 313 away from the first arm 311 is connected to a suspension chain 315 , and the suspension arm 310 suspends the cable reel 600 through the suspension chain 315 .

[0039] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4The boom 310 further includes a first support plate 316 and a second support plate 317. One end of the first support plate 316 is hinged on the first support arm 311 near the second support arm 313. One end of the second support plate 317 is hinged on the second support arm 313 near the first support arm 311. The other end of the first support plate 316, the other end of the second support plate 317 and the other end of the second telescopic cylinder 314 are hinged. By providing the first support plate 316 and the second support plate 317, the telescopic range of the second telescopic cylinder 314 can be limited, and the rotation range of the second support arm 313 relative to the first support arm 311 can be limited, so as to ensure that the movement trajectory of the second support arm 313 when lifting the cable drum 600 is within a preset range.

[0040] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The cable car with a boom also includes a cable arrangement assembly 400, which includes a cable arrangement frame 410 and a plurality of wire wheels 420. The cable arrangement frame 410 is installed on the walking chassis 100, and the cable arrangement assembly 400 is located between the two supports 210. The plurality of wire wheels 420 are rotatably connected to the cable arrangement frame 410, and the wire wheels 420 are used to guide the cable to be discharged. When the cable drum 600 is placed on the support assembly 200, the cable is output by bypassing the wire wheel 420, which reduces the friction between the cable and the cable car, and ensures that the cable can be smoothly output.

[0041] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The cable unwinding vehicle with a boom further includes a drum drive assembly 500, and the drum drive assembly 500 includes a drive motor 510 and a drive wheel 520. The drive motor 510 is mounted on the walking chassis 100, and the drive wheel 520 is connected to the output end of the drive motor 510. When the cable drum 600 is placed on the support assembly 200, the drive wheel 520 abuts against the cable drum 600. The drive motor 510 can drive the cable drum 600 to rotate through the drive wheel 520, and the staff can hold one end of the cable line to achieve rapid cable unwinding.

[0042] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 3The support 210 is provided with a fixing assembly 220, which includes a support block 221, a limiting block 222 and a locking member 223. The support block 221 is provided with a first limiting groove, and the limiting block 222 is provided with a second limiting groove. One end of the limiting block 222 is hinged to one end of the support block 221, and the other end of the limiting block 222 is detachably connected to the other end of the support block 221 through the locking member 223. The first limiting groove and the second limiting groove are combined to form a limiting hole 224, and the limiting hole 224 is used for the central axis of the cable reel 600 to be placed. The fixing assembly 220 is provided on the support 210, so that the cable reel 600 can be fixed on the support 210 to prevent the cable reel 600 from falling off from the support 210 during the cable release process. Two supports 210 are provided, and two fixing components 220 are correspondingly provided. The two fixing components 220 can limit the axial fixation of the cable reel 600 to ensure stable cable release of the cable reel 600.

[0043] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 The locking member 223 includes a buckle, which includes a hook portion and a lock portion. The hook portion is mounted on the support block 221, and the lock portion is mounted on the limit block 222. The locking member 223 can be operably switched to a first state or a second state. When the locking member 223 is in the first state, the lock portion is connected to the hook portion; when the locking member 223 is in the second state, the lock portion is separated from the hook portion. In the initial state, the locking member 223 is in the second state, and the lock portion is separated from the hook portion, so that the limit block 222 can be opened from the support block 221, so that the central axis of the cable reel 600 is conveniently placed in the first limit groove. The limit block 222 is covered on the support block 221, the lock portion is connected to the hook portion, and the locking member 223 is in the first state, which limits the central axis of the cable reel 600 from being separated from the support 210.

[0044] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 4 A controller and a remote control receiving module are also provided on the traveling chassis 100. The controller is electrically connected to the remote control receiving module. The controller is used to control the movement of the traveling chassis 100 and the operation of the lifting assembly 300.

[0045] The controller and the remote control receiving module are both prior art and are equipped with a remote control, which is in communication connection with the remote control receiving module. When it is necessary to lay the cable, the arm 310 of the cable car can be operated by the remote control to remove the cable drum 600 from the storage rack 700, and the cable drum 600 can be placed on the support 210 of the cable car for fixing. After the cable drum 600 is fixed, the arm 310 is retracted. The operator uses the remote control to operate the cable car to move and the cable winding operation. When the cable laying operation is completed, the arm 310 of the cable car can be operated by the remote control to put the cable drum 600 back on the storage rack 700. There is no need to manually lift the cable drum 600 during the whole process.

[0046] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 4 The traveling chassis 100 may be a crawler chassis, or a wheeled chassis, which can realize forward, backward and steering movements, thereby ensuring the traveling and laying of cables by the cable car.

[0047] In the description of this specification, the description with reference to the terms "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "illustrative embodiments", "examples", "specific examples", or "some examples" means that the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described in conjunction with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the utility model.
