Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of crane ropes, and specifically relates to an integrated device for inspecting and maintaining crane ropes. Background Art

[0002] Crane ropes, as a key component of the crane system, carry the important task of lifting, moving or placing heavy objects to a predetermined location. Their design and performance directly affect the efficiency and safety of the work. Ropes are usually made of high-strength materials to ensure that they can withstand huge loads and have a certain degree of flexibility to adapt to various movements and changes during the lifting process. There are many types of ropes, including but not limited to wire ropes, synthetic fiber ropes, cables, etc. Each type has its specific application scenarios and advantages. Wire ropes are widely used in various types of cranes due to their high strength, wear resistance and corrosion resistance.

[0003] At present, the maintenance and care of crane ropes usually rely on regular application of lubricating oil to reduce its wear during use. The traditional application method mostly relies on manpower. The lubricating oil is directly applied to the rope using a lubrication gun or an applicator stick. This operation is not convenient and time-consuming. In addition, the crane is usually required to stop working when applying the lubricating oil manually to ensure safety and facilitate operators to approach the rope. This will affect the continuity of the production process and reduce production efficiency. For this reason, a crane rope inspection and maintenance integrated device is provided. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide an integrated device for inspecting and maintaining crane ropes in order to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0005] The technical solution adopted in the present application is as follows: an integrated device for inspecting and maintaining a crane rope, comprising a crane mounting seat, a U-shaped hole is opened on the front side of the crane mounting seat, a mounting bracket is fixedly installed on the top surface of the crane mounting seat, a drum is arranged inside the mounting bracket, a steel wire rope is wound and connected on the outer surface of the mounting bracket, a rectangular frame is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the crane mounting seat, one end of the steel wire rope passes through the interior of the rectangular frame, two high-speed cameras are symmetrically fixedly installed on the top surface of the rectangular frame, a rectangular oil supply pipe is fixedly installed on the inner side wall of the rectangular frame, a plurality of atomizing nozzles are fixedly installed on the inner side wall of the rectangular oil supply pipe, an oil storage tank is fixedly installed on the top surface of the crane mounting seat, a plunger pump is fixedly installed on the top surface of the crane mounting seat at the side of the oil storage tank, the liquid inlet end of the plunger pump extends to the interior of the oil storage tank, a liquid supply pipe is fixedly installed on the liquid outlet end of the plunger pump, one end of the liquid supply pipe extends to the interior of the rectangular frame and is fixed to the outer surface of the rectangular oil supply pipe.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment, a partition plate 1 is fixedly installed inside the rectangular frame and located above the rectangular oil supply pipe, a rectangular hole is opened on the top surface of the partition plate 1, one end of the wire rope passes through the inside of the rectangular hole, a wire rope flaw detector is arranged on the top surface of the partition plate 1, and one end of the wire rope passes through the middle part of the wire rope flaw detector.

[0007] In a preferred embodiment, a partition plate 2 is fixedly installed inside the rectangular frame and located below the rectangular oil supply pipe. A through hole is opened on the top surface of the partition plate 2. A circular cleaning tube is arranged inside the through hole. One end of the steel wire rope passes through the middle of the circular cleaning tube. Two limiting rings are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the circular cleaning tube.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the inner side wall of the rectangular frame is symmetrically provided with sliding grooves, the interior of the sliding groove is slidably connected with a slider, and the front end of the slider is fixed to the outer surface of the wire rope flaw detector.

[0011] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this application are:

[0012] 1. In the present application, due to the adoption of the above-mentioned scheme, when the terminal operator finds that the lubricating oil on the surface of the wire rope is reduced through the high-speed camera, the plunger pump is first started. Through the reciprocating motion of the plunger pump, the lubricating oil in the oil storage tank is pressurized, and then the surface of the wire rope is evenly lubricated through the liquid supply pipe, the rectangular oil supply pipe and the atomizing nozzle under a certain pressure, thereby reducing the wear of the wire rope during use, extending its service life, and improving the overall operation efficiency. The device uses a wire rope flaw detector to facilitate real-time detection of potential problems such as internal damage, cracks, and corrosion of the wire rope, thereby ensuring the safety and reliability of the equipment. At the same time, the integration of high-speed cameras enables terminal operators to monitor the appearance of the wire rope in real time and promptly discover problems such as reduced lubricating oil. Once it is detected that the wire rope is insufficiently lubricated, the operator can start the plunger pump through remote control to achieve automatic addition of lubricating oil. This process does not require stopping the operation of the crane, greatly improving the convenience and efficiency of operation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0019] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The crane rope inspection and maintenance integrated device comprises a crane mounting seat 1, a U-shaped hole 2 is opened on the front side of the crane mounting seat 1, a mounting bracket 3 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the crane mounting seat 1, a drum 4 is arranged inside the mounting bracket 3, and a steel wire rope 5 is wound and connected on the outer surface of the mounting bracket 3; the mounting bracket 3 is arranged to facilitate the installation of the drum 4, a motor is arranged on one side of the mounting bracket 3, so that the drum 4 is driven to rotate so that the steel wire rope 5 is wound, and a hook is arranged at the bottom end of the steel wire rope 5, and the arrangement of the hook facilitates the lifting of heavy objects.

[0020] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2A rectangular frame 6 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the crane mounting seat 1, one end of the wire rope 5 passes through the interior of the rectangular frame 6, and two high-speed cameras 7 are symmetrically fixedly installed on the top surface of the rectangular frame 6; the two high-speed cameras 7 are arranged to facilitate monitoring of the wire rope 5 passing through the interior of the rectangular frame 6, and to facilitate observation by terminal personnel. Since the wire rope 5 is running at a high speed, the high-speed camera 7 can capture the real-time status of the wire rope 5. The high-speed camera 7 can record images at a speed of hundreds or even thousands of frames per second, so that the details of the wire rope 5 during operation can be clearly observed, and it is convenient for terminal personnel to observe the appearance of the wire rope 5.

[0021] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A rectangular oil supply pipe 8 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the rectangular frame 6, and a plurality of atomizing nozzles 9 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the rectangular oil supply pipe 8; the rectangular oil supply pipe 8 is provided to facilitate the installation of the plurality of atomizing nozzles 9, and to facilitate the subsequent oil spraying operation on the wire rope 5.

[0022] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 An oil storage tank 10 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the crane mounting seat 1, and a liquid level observation window 23 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the oil storage tank 10. A plunger pump 11 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the crane mounting seat 1 at the side of the oil storage tank 10. The liquid inlet end of the plunger pump 11 extends to the interior of the oil storage tank 10, and a liquid supply pipe 12 is fixedly installed at the liquid outlet end of the plunger pump 11. One end of the liquid supply pipe 12 extends to the interior of the rectangular frame 6 and is fixed to the outer surface of the rectangular oil supply pipe 8; the plunger pump 11 pressurizes the lubricating oil (which can be liquid or grease) in the oil storage tank 10 through reciprocating motion, so that the lubricating oil inside the oil storage tank 10 enters the interior of the rectangular oil supply pipe 8 through the liquid supply pipe 12 under a certain pressure and is sprayed out through the atomizing nozzle 9, so that the lubricating oil is evenly sprayed on the surface of the wire rope 5, reducing the wear of the wire rope 5 during use.

[0023] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3A partition 13 is fixedly installed inside the rectangular frame 6 above the rectangular oil supply pipe 8. A rectangular hole 14 is opened on the top surface of the partition 13. One end of the wire rope 5 passes through the inside of the rectangular hole 14. A wire rope flaw detector 15 is arranged on the top surface of the partition 13. One end of the wire rope 5 passes through the middle of the wire rope flaw detector 15. The partition 13 is arranged to separate the lubricating oil sprayed from the atomizing nozzle 9, so that the lubricating oil can be avoided as much as possible. The wire rope flaw detector 15 is arranged to facilitate the internal damage, cracks, corrosion, etc. of the wire rope 5. Potential problems are detected so that personnel can promptly discover and deal with problems existing in the use of the wire rope 5. The wire rope flaw detector 15 adopts ultrasonic technology. By emitting ultrasonic waves into the inside of the wire rope 5, the internal state of the wire rope 5 is analyzed according to the propagation speed, attenuation and reflection characteristics of ultrasonic waves in different materials. When there is damage or cracks inside the wire rope 5, the propagation path and characteristics of the ultrasonic waves will change, which will be displayed in the test results. The wire rope flaw detector 15 is an existing structure. This application only uses it without improving its structure, so no further elaboration will be made here.

[0024] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 The inner wall of the rectangular frame 6 is symmetrically provided with a slide groove 20, and a slider 21 is slidably connected inside the slide groove 20, and the front end of the slider 21 is fixed to the outer surface of the wire rope flaw detector 15; through the provision of the slider 21, it is easy to drive the wire rope flaw detector 15 to move, thereby improving the stability of the wire rope flaw detector 15.

[0025] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 A partition plate 16 is fixedly installed inside the rectangular frame 6 below the rectangular oil supply pipe 8. A through hole 17 is opened on the top surface of the partition plate 16. A circular cleaning tube 18 is arranged inside the through hole 17. One end of the steel wire rope 5 passes through the middle of the circular cleaning tube 18. A circular rubber pad 22 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the circular cleaning tube 18. Two limiting rings 19 are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the circular cleaning tube 18. Through the circular cleaning tube 18, some debris attached to the surface of the steel wire rope 5 can be scraped off when the steel wire rope 5 is wound up, so as to avoid the debris from affecting the use of the steel wire rope 5 as much as possible. Through the limiting ring 19, the circular cleaning tube 18 is convenient to move inside the through hole 17. Through the circular rubber pad 22, the excessive friction between the steel wire rope 5 and the circular cleaning tube 18 can be reduced.

[0026] The implementation principle of the embodiment of the crane rope inspection and maintenance device of the present application is as follows: the operator first installs the rectangular frame 6 on the bottom of the crane mounting base 1, and then passes one end of the wire rope 5 through a series of components according to the path, including the wire rope flaw detector 15, the rectangular hole 14, the circular cleaning tube 18 and the through hole 17. This process not only enables the wire rope 5 to achieve smooth operation, but also realizes real-time detection of potential problems such as internal damage, cracks, corrosion, etc. of the wire rope through the built-in wire rope flaw detector 15, thereby ensuring the safety and reliability of the equipment.

[0027] During the operation of the steel wire rope 5, the circular cleaning pipe 18 can effectively remove the impurities that may be attached to the surface of the steel wire rope 5, so as to avoid the negative impact of these impurities on the performance of the steel wire rope 5. At the same time, through the reciprocating motion of the plunger pump 11, the lubricating oil in the oil storage tank 10 is pressurized, and then the lubricating oil is evenly lubricated on the surface of the steel wire rope 5 through the liquid supply pipe 12, the rectangular oil supply pipe 8 and the atomizing nozzle 9 under a certain pressure, thereby reducing the wear of the steel wire rope during use, extending its service life, and improving the overall operation efficiency.

[0028] In addition, the integration of the high-speed camera 7 enables the terminal operator to monitor the appearance of the wire rope 5 in real time and promptly discover problems such as a reduction in lubricating oil. Once it is detected that the wire rope 5 is short of lubricating oil, the operator can start the plunger pump 11 through remote control to automatically add lubricating oil. This process does not require stopping the operation of the crane, which greatly improves the convenience and efficiency of operation. The device has a simple structural design, a convenient operating process, and has the function of automatically detecting and replenishing lubricating oil, which not only improves the maintenance efficiency of the equipment, but also ensures safety and stability during the operation, and realizes efficient and safe operation of the crane under various conditions.
