Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of spring boxes, and in particular relates to a spring box assembled from constant force springs. Background Art

[0002] During the use of the aerial ladder, a spring box is often needed as an auxiliary tightening device to help the aerial ladder to retract and pull back.

[0003] At present, only one caliper spring is often placed in the existing spring box, and the stretching distance is limited. If the stretching length of the caliper spring is to be extended, more turns of the caliper spring need to be placed. Such a design will cause the width of the spring box to be too wide, which will hinder the operation of other components.

[0004] Therefore, in order to address the problem that when the width is limited, only one caliper spring can be placed in the existing spring box, resulting in limited stretching length, a spring box assembled with constant force springs is designed. Without changing the width of the spring box, two connected constant force springs are arranged in the box to extend the stretching distance. Utility Model Content

[0005] In order to overcome the problem that the existing spring box has a limited width and can only accommodate one spring without hindering the operation of other components, resulting in a short stretching distance.

[0006] The technical solution of the utility model is: a spring box assembled from constant force springs, comprising a No. 1 constant force spring, a No. 2 constant force spring, a box body, a rotating assembly, a limiting assembly and a stretching assembly; a No. 2 constant force spring connected to the No. 1 constant force spring is arranged at the rear side of the No. 1 constant force spring, a box body is arranged outside the No. 1 constant force spring and the No. 2 constant force spring, a rotating assembly for adjusting the positions of the No. 1 constant force spring and the No. 2 constant force spring is arranged inside the box body, a limiting assembly is installed in the box body, and a stretching assembly connected to the No. 1 constant force spring is arranged on the box body.

[0007] Preferably, by arranging two constant force springs arranged in parallel and connected in the spring box, the distance that the spring box can be retracted and pulled back can be extended without hindering the operation of other devices. The rotating component can realize the winding and even constant force spring, and achieve the effect of stretching and contraction. The limiting component can prevent the rotating component from being offset, and the stretching component is used to apply force to the constant force spring.

[0008] Preferably, a box cover is provided at the bottom end of the box body, and anchor holes are provided on both the box body and the box cover, and anchor screws are inserted into the anchor holes. A limit ring is fixedly connected to the box body, and the box cover is tightly attached to the limit ring. Screws are used as anchor columns to pass through the anchor holes provided on the box body and the box cover to fix the box body and the box cover together. The box body and the box cover can provide protection for the internal constant force spring.

[0009] Preferably, the rotating assembly includes a rotating shaft and a limit plate; two rotating shafts facing each other front and back are arranged in the box body, and three limit plates arranged from top to bottom are fixedly connected to the rotating shafts, and the No. 1 constant force spring and the No. 2 constant force spring are respectively sleeved on the two rotating shafts, and the No. 1 constant force spring is located between the middle and lower limit plates. When the No. 1 constant force spring is pulled, the No. 1 constant force spring will pull the No. 2 constant force spring, so that the two rotating shafts rotate in opposite directions, straightening the No. 1 constant force spring and the No. 2 constant force spring to extend the length.

[0010] Preferably, the limit assembly includes a No. 1 limit sleeve and a limit column; a No. 1 limit sleeve located outside the two rotating shafts is fixedly connected to the box body, and two limit columns are fixedly connected to the box body. The rotating shaft is sleeved above the limit column, and the No. 1 limit sleeve limits the rotating shaft from the outside, and the limit column limits the rotating shaft from the inside. Under such a limit, the position of the rotating shaft will not shift when the constant force spring is stretched and retracted.

[0011] Preferably, the limit assembly also includes a No. 2 limit sleeve; the top of the box cover is fixedly connected to the No. 2 limit sleeve, and the limit column is inserted into the No. 2 limit sleeve. Through the No. 2 limit sleeve and the limit column, the box cover and the box body can be accurately positioned for docking, which can prevent the rotating shaft from sliding up and down.

[0012] Preferably, the No. 1 limit sleeve is tightly attached to the outside of the two rotating shafts, and the bottom end of the limit plate located in the middle of the rotating shaft is in the same horizontal plane as the bottom end of the No. 1 limit sleeve. This design allows the No. 1 constant force spring and the No. 2 constant force spring to be located below the No. 1 limit sleeve, and the No. 1 limit sleeve will not hinder the constant force spring during extension and pulling.

[0013] Preferably, the stretching assembly includes a stretching slot and a stretching column; a stretching slot is opened on the box body, and a stretching column connected to the No. 1 constant force spring is arranged at the front end of the stretching slot. By pulling the stretching column, the No. 1 constant force spring and the No. 2 constant force spring can be straightened and extended from the stretching slot. The stretching slot can play a certain limiting role.

[0014] Beneficial effects of the utility model:

[0015] 1. By arranging two parallel and connected constant force springs in the spring box, the width of the spring box can be avoided from being increased while only the length of the spring box is changed. The distance that the spring box can be extended and retracted can be extended without hindering the operation of other devices. The ordinary caliper spring is replaced with a constant force spring, which can provide a lasting and stable operating force through elastic deformation;

[0016] 2. The limit sleeve and the limit column can limit the movement range of the rotating shaft, so that the rotating shaft can only rotate in a fixed area, thereby increasing the stability of the spring box;

[0017] 3. The use of ladders often needs to be carried out in the wild, which is prone to rust and dust. The box body can provide protection for the internal constant force spring. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

By arranging two parallel and connected constant force springs in the spring box, the distance that the spring box can be retracted and pulled back can be extended without hindering the operation of other devices. The rotating component realizes winding and even constant force springs, which has the effect of stretching and contracting. The limiting component can avoid deviation of the rotating component, and the stretching component is used to apply force to the constant force spring.

[0027] See also Figure 1-4 In this embodiment, a box cover 4 is provided at the bottom of the box body 3, and anchor holes are provided on the box body 3 and the box cover 4, and anchor screws are inserted into the anchor holes. A limit ring 5 is fixedly connected to the box body 3, and the box cover 4 is close to the limit ring 5. The rotating assembly includes a rotating shaft 601 and a limit plate 602; two rotating shafts 601 facing each other are provided in the box body 3, and three limit plates 602 arranged from top to bottom are fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 601, and the constant force spring 1 and the constant force spring 2 are respectively sleeved on the two On the rotating shaft 601, the constant force spring 1 No. 1 is located between the middle and lower limit plates 602. The box body 3 and the box cover 4 are fixed together by screws as anchoring columns passing through the anchoring holes opened on the box body 3 and the box cover 4. The box body 3 and the box cover 4 will provide protection for the internal constant force spring. When the constant force spring No. 1 is pulled, the constant force spring No. 1 will pull the constant force spring No. 2, so that the two rotating shafts 601 rotate in opposite directions, straightening the constant force spring No. 1 and the constant force spring No. 2 to extend the length.

[0028] See also Figure 1 , 56.
