Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of elevator rope vibration reduction, in particular to a vibration reduction device for an elevator rope. Background Art

[0002] An elevator is a permanent transportation device that serves several specific floors in a building and whose car runs on at least two rows of rigid tracks that are perpendicular to the horizontal plane or have an inclination angle of less than 15° to the plumb line. Modern elevators are mainly composed of traction machines, guide rails, counterweight devices, safety devices, signal control systems, cars and hall doors, etc. These parts are installed in the shaft and machine room of the building respectively. Wire rope friction transmission is usually used. The wire rope is passed around the traction sheave, and the two ends are respectively connected to the car and the counterweight. The electric motor drives the traction sheave to raise and lower the car. Elevators require safety and reliability, high transportation efficiency, accurate leveling and comfortable riding, etc. The elevator rope head is an indispensable accessory in the elevator.

[0003] At present, vibration reduction of elevator rope ends is a key part of reducing vibrations caused by elevator stops. At present, ordinary elevators do not fully apply shock-absorbing devices, especially when the elevator is started or stopped. Due to the weight of the elevator, the steel cable is more likely to stretch, which will aggravate the loss of the steel cable during long-term use and reduce the service life of the equipment.

[0004] Therefore, the utility model provides a vibration reduction device for elevator ropes. Utility Model Content

[0010] Preferably, when the pneumatic clamp is in a clamping state, the elastic tube and the fixing plate move downward together with the steel cable.

[0011] The utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0012] In the utility model, when the elevator is pre-started or pre-parked, the pneumatic clamp will drive the two clamping claws to clamp the elastic tube, thereby causing the inner wall of the elastic tube and the steel cable to generate an extrusion force, and the steel cable will drive the elastic tube and the fixing plate to descend together, and the spring will be stretched downward. At the same time, the pneumatic clamp will also drive the connecting plate to squeeze the telescopic rod.

[0018] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0019] See also Figure 1-4 The utility model provides a technical solution: a vibration reduction device for an elevator rope, comprising:

[0020] A rope head plate 1 is provided with a steel cable 2 inside the rope head plate 1. The steel cable 2 slides freely inside the rope head plate 1 and is used to lift the elevator car. A reset spring 3 is provided outside the steel cable 2. A fixing plate 4 is provided at the bottom end of the reset spring 3. The steel cable 2 slides freely inside the fixing plate 4. The two ends of the reset spring 3 are respectively fixedly connected to the fixing plate 4 and the rope head plate 1. A buffer unit 5 for stretching the reset spring 3 downward is provided below the fixing plate 4. The buffer unit 5 is used to reduce the vibration of the steel cable 2 when it is stretched, thereby reducing the loss of the steel cable 2 when the elevator starts and stops, and further extending the service life of the device.

[0021] The buffer unit 5 includes an elastic tube 6 located below the fixed plate 4, and a pneumatic clamp 7 is provided on the outer wall of the elastic tube 6 (the pneumatic clamp 7 here is the prior art, and when working, the pump body simultaneously supplies air to the end slide grooves of the two clamps, thereby driving the two clamps to squeeze each other at the same time), and a square frame 8 is provided on the outer wall of the pneumatic clamp 7 and is connected to it by sliding up and down, and the top of the square frame 8 is fixedly connected to the rope head plate 1, and a connecting plate 9 is provided below the pneumatic clamp 7 and is fixedly connected thereto, and a telescopic rod 10 is provided below the connecting plate 9 and is fixedly connected thereto, and the bottom of the telescopic rod 10 is fixedly connected to the square frame 8, and the telescopic rod 10 has the ability of self-recovery, and the pneumatic clamp 7 is electrically connected to the start and stop controller of the elevator. When the pneumatic clamp 7 is in the clamping state, the elastic tube 6 and the fixed plate 4 move downward together with the steel cable 2, and the reset spring 3 is stretched downward a short distance, which plays a certain buffering role for the stretching of the steel cable 2;

[0022] During use, when the elevator is pre-started or pre-parked, the pneumatic clamp 7 will receive a self-starting signal sent by the controller (the clamping time of the pneumatic clamp 7 is short, and within three seconds after the elevator starts running again, its clamping effect will be closed again to ensure the normal operation of the elevator), and then drive the two claws to clamp the elastic tube 6, so that the inner wall of the elastic tube 6 and the steel cable 2 generate an extrusion pressure. Under the action of the extrusion pressure, the steel cable 2 will drive the elastic tube 6 and the fixing plate 4 to descend together, and the spring will be stretched downward. At the same time, the pneumatic clamp 7 will also move downward and drive the connecting plate 9 to squeeze the telescopic rod 10. The restoring elasticity of the telescopic rod 10 and the elasticity of the reset spring 3 cooperate with each other, which has a double buffering effect on the tensile strength of the steel cable 2, and effectively reduces the loss of the steel cable 2 when the elevator starts and stops, which is beneficial to extending the service life of the equipment.

[0023] Furthermore, a slide cylinder 11 is provided below the elastic cylinder 6, and the upper and lower ends of the elastic cylinder 6 are fixedly connected to the fixed plate 4 and the slide cylinder 11 respectively. The steel cable 2 can slide freely inside the elastic cylinder 6 and the slide cylinder 11. The outer wall of the slide cylinder 11 is provided with a fixed cylinder 12 and is slidably connected to it. The outer wall of the fixed cylinder 12 is fixedly connected to the square frame 8. A slide plate 13 is provided at the bottom end of the slide cylinder 11 and is fixedly connected to it. The slide plate 13 is located on the inner wall of the fixed cylinder 12 and is slidably connected to it. The wall body of the slide plate 13 is provided with a through hole 14, and the interior of the fixed cylinder 12 is filled with liquid oil.

[0024] When the elastic cylinder 6 descends, it will drive the slide cylinder 11 to slide inside the fixed cylinder 12, and the slide plate 13 will also slide accordingly. In this process, the downward displacement of the slide plate 13 will cause the oil at the bottom end of the fixed cylinder 12 to flow from the through hole 14 to the other side of the slide plate 13. The liquid fluidity of the oil can effectively buffer the stretching of the steel cable 2. At the same time, when the return spring 3 drives the slide cylinder 11 and the elastic cylinder 6 to reset, it can also provide a buffer for the restoring elastic force of the return spring 3, thereby ensuring that the steel cable 2 has a more stable vibration reduction effect and providing a better riding experience for the passengers of the elevator.
