DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0017] Now, the utility model will be further described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0018] Such as Figures 1-4As shown in the figure, there is a traveling limit mechanism, including a main beam 1 and two guide rails 2 fixedly installed on the top of the main beam 1. Two sliders 3 are slidably installed on the two guide rails 2. Limit blocks 4 are fixedly installed on the tops of the two sliders 3. Guide rods 5 are slidably installed on the two limit blocks 4. Buffer pads 6 are fixedly installed at the mutually approaching ends of the two guide rods 5. Pressure springs 7 are sleeved on the two guide rods 5. The mutually approaching ends of the two pressure springs 7 are respectively fixedly connected to the two buffer pads 6, and the mutually remote ends are respectively fixedly connected to the two limit blocks 4. By arranging the limit blocks 4 on both sides, the trolley walking between them can be limited. Moreover, by means of the buffer pads 6 and the pressure springs 7, the trolley will not be violently collided, forming a protection for it.
[0019] In the above method, in order to position the limit block 4 and at the same time be able to adjust its position to ensure the limitation of trolleys with different traveling distances, a gantry 8 is fixedly installed on the main beam 1. Adjusting screws 9 are rotatably installed on the inner walls of both sides of it. Two supporting members are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the top of the gantry 8. The two adjusting screws 9 respectively penetrate through the two supporting members and are rotatably connected to the corresponding supporting members to form end supports for the adjusting screws 9. Moreover, servo motors are fixedly installed on the outer walls of both sides of the gantry 8. The output shafts of the two servo motors are respectively fixedly connected to the mutually remote ends of the two adjusting screws 9. Movable arms 10 are threadedly installed on the two adjusting screws 9. Installation grooves 11 are formed on the mutually remote sides of the two movable arms 10. The bottoms of the two installation grooves 11 are both open. Installation bars 12 are fixedly installed in the two installation grooves 11 by bolts. The bottoms of the two installation bars 12 are respectively fixedly connected to the two limit blocks 4. This installation method also facilitates the subsequent replacement of the limit block 4. In addition, avoidance openings are formed on both sides of the gantry 8. When replacing the limit block 4, the limit block 4 can be slid out from the avoidance opening. Moreover, first connecting pieces 13 are fixedly installed on the tops of the two movable arms 10. First damping pads 14 are fixedly installed on the tops of the two first connecting pieces 13. Second connecting pieces 17 are arranged above the two first damping pads 14. Second damping pads 18 are fixedly installed on the bottoms of the two second connecting pieces 17. The two second damping pads 18 respectively abut against the two first damping pads 14. By means of their tight abutment, after the slider 3 is adjusted to the specified position, it can be firmly fixed at this position, ensuring the limiting effect on the trolley.
[0020] In order to drive the first damping pad 14 into contact with or separation from the second damping pad 18, a movable plate 15 is provided above the gantry 8. Two connecting rods 16 are fixedly installed at the top of each of the two second connecting pieces 17. The tops of the four connecting rods 16 all extend above the gantry 8 and are fixedly connected to the movable plate 15. Moreover, the connecting rods 16 are slidably connected to the top of the gantry 8. A concave rod 20 is provided inside the gantry 8. The top of the concave rod 20 extends above the gantry 8 and is fixedly connected to the movable plate 15. The concave rod 20 is slidably connected to the top of the gantry 8. A hydraulic cylinder 19 is fixedly installed at the top of the gantry 8. The hydraulic cylinder 19 penetrates the movable plate 15. The output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 19 extends into the gantry 8 and is fixedly connected to the concave rod 20. Moreover, the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 19 is slidably connected to the top of the gantry 8.
[0021] The working principle of the traveling crane limit mechanism provided by the present utility model is as follows:
[0022] During use, the trolley is slidably installed on the two guide rails 2 for use. And in the initial state of this mechanism, the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 19 is in the extended state;
[0023] When it is necessary to make the trolley slide on the guide rail 2, in order to enable the trolley to accurately stay in the designated area, the designated limit block 4 can be selected according to the moving direction of the trolley. During operation, first start the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 19 to retract, so that the first damping pad 14 is separated from the second damping pad 18. Then start the corresponding servo motor, and its output shaft drives the corresponding adjusting screw 9 to rotate, thereby being able to drive the movable arm 10 to move horizontally. At this time, the sliding seat 3 will move on the guide rail 2. When it moves to the designated area, start the output shaft of the hydraulic cylinder 19 to extend, so that the second damping pad 18 tightly abuts against the first damping pad 14 again, thereby forming an anti-slip effect. Then turn off the servo motor and start the trolley on the crane to move and hoist. During the movement of the trolley, when it collides with the corresponding buffer pad 6, it will squeeze the compression spring 7, causing the compression spring 7 to be compressed, thereby being able to provide corresponding buffering for the trolley. After the trolley stops, the trolley has moved to the designated area, thus completing the limit buffering of the trolley;
[0024] In subsequent use, when the compression spring 7 and the buffer pad 6 reach the service life due to long-term compression, the bolts connecting the movable arm 10 and the mounting strip 12 can be directly screwed out, and then the sliding seat 3 together with the limit block 4 is slid out from the guide rail 2, and then the sliding seat 3 on the new limit block 4 is installed on the guide rail 2, so as to facilitate the later maintenance.
