Abstract

[0002] With the rapid development of the petrochemical industry, the loading and unloading of oil, oil derivatives, and chemical raw materials are more dependent on cranes. In order to ensure the dynamic balance of the crane's outer arm and its extension, and to save the physical strength of the loading and unloading workers during the use of the crane, a spring balance system is installed at the rotating joint of the outer arm and the inner arm at the beginning of the crane's design, so as to ensure that the crane's outer arm and its extension are in a balanced state at any position.
[0003] After the spring cylinder balancing system currently in use is installed, due to manufacturing errors, the spring cylinder balancing system is prone to cylinder deviation after installation, that is, after the spring cylinder is installed, the center line of the cylinder barrel is difficult to be parallel to the center line of the outer arm of the crane tube, resulting in uneven force on the spring cylinder support ears. The cylinder rod of the spring cylinder will stick to one side of the cylinder barrel mouth, causing friction during movement. Long-term use will cause serious wear of the cylinder barrel, thereby affecting its balancing performance and service life. Utility Model Content
