Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of tourism sightseeing, in particular to a track chain type manned device. Background Art
[0002] A cableway is a common amusement facility in tourist scenic spots and large geological parks. To help tourists escape the pain of climbing mountains and quickly reach the mountain peak to view the scenic spots, cableway operation stations are respectively set at the foot of the mountain and the top of the mountain. Tourists can take the hanging baskets under the steel wire rope. These baskets are spaced at a certain distance from each other and are fixed on the steel wire rope, and move back and forth between the two stations as the steel wire rope moves to transport tourists. The common cableway uses a steel wire rope for transportation. The gripper is fixed or mounted on the steel wire rope, and the steel wire rope is driven by friction with the driving wheel. Its main defects are: first, the transmission efficiency is low; second, the steel cable and the driving wheel are prone to slipping, causing the car to run away and leading to safety accidents; third, due to the gripper being fixed or mounted on the steel cable, the structure for horizontal turning is complex and prone to failure.
[0003] The track chain type manned device is an improved type of cableway. By using a chain to replace the traditional steel wire rope, the chain has a strong bearing capacity and stable transmission. For example, the patent document with the application number 201120063773.6 discloses a mine aerial cableway using chain transportation, including a head, a tail, the driving wheel on the head and the tail wheel on the tail are sprockets, the chain is a round-link chain. After the chain leaves the driving wheel and the tail wheel, it enters the track for operation. The vertical link of the chain is clamped between the tracks, and the horizontal link of the chain leans on the track. A hanging chair hook is installed on the vertical link of the chain. This technical solution uses chain and sprocket transmission, has a high transmission efficiency, prevents the car from running away caused by slipping, and realizes a simple horizontal turning structure. However, during the use process, this solution also has some problems. For example, the track is laid along the mountain slope. Since the chain passing longitudinally through the track is relatively long and loose, there is a risk that the chain is prone to loosening when passing through the sprocket. Moreover, if the horizontal link and the vertical link on the chain are slightly misaligned, it is easy to cause chain jamming, resulting in equipment damage and safety accidents. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the problems that in the prior art, when the chain in the track passes through the sprocket, there is a risk of easy loosening, and if the horizontal link and the vertical link are slightly misaligned, it is easy to cause chain jamming, and to propose a track chain type manned device.
[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0006] An orbital chain-type manned device, comprising an orbit and a chain. The chain longitudinally passes through the inside of the orbit along the orbit. A hanging basket is suspended below the chain. The device further includes sprockets rotatably arranged at both ends of the orbit. The sprockets are engaged with the chain and include a wheel body and two baffles symmetrically installed on both sides of the wheel body. Multiple groups of teeth are evenly distributed on the outer peripheral surface of the wheel body, and an annular groove is further provided on the outer peripheral surface of the wheel body. Through the above structural arrangement, the baffles on both sides of the sprocket limit the chain links, enabling the sprocket to be engaged with the chain links.
[0007] In some embodiments, the number of teeth in each group is two, and the two teeth in the same group are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the annular groove. The teeth can be inserted between two vertical chain links to drive the chain to run.
[0008] In some embodiments, a plurality of notches are evenly distributed on the outer peripheral surface of the baffle, and the notches and the teeth are alternately arranged in sequence. By providing notches on the baffle, interference between the hooks on the vertical chain links and the baffle is avoided.
[0009] In some embodiments, the side surface of the tooth close to the annular groove is an inclined surface, and the inclined surface is connected to the annular groove. The inclined surface gradually inclines outward along the direction away from the outer peripheral surface of the wheel body. This facilitates the horizontal chain link to pass through between the two inclined surfaces and fall into the annular groove.
[0010] In some embodiments, the chain includes a plurality of chain links connected end to end in sequence. The chain links are of a closed-loop structure and are divided into horizontal chain links and vertical chain links. The vertical chain links are connected to the hanging basket through hooks.
[0011] In some embodiments, the orbit includes an ascending orbit, a descending orbit, and a turning-back orbit. The ascending orbit and the descending orbit are laid in parallel along the mountain slope. Both the ascending orbit and the descending orbit respectively include a plurality of straight segments; the turning-back orbit is a semi-circular orbit, and the turning-back orbit is connected to both ends of the ascending orbit and the descending orbit. The ascending orbit, the descending orbit, and the turning-back orbit form a loop.
[0012] In some embodiments, a support body is further provided below the orbit. The support body includes a plurality of columns arranged on the mountain slope and a cross beam arranged at the top of the columns. The ascending orbit and the descending orbit are respectively installed at both ends of the cross beam. Through the above structural arrangement, tourists going up the mountain and going down the mountain do not interfere with each other.
[0013] In some embodiments, the wheel body and the baffle are connected by bolts. Installation holes are provided at the centers of the wheel body and the baffle, and key grooves are provided on the inner hole walls of the installation holes.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the present utility model provides an orbital chain-type manned device, which has the following beneficial effects.
[0015] 1. When the chain in the utility model passes through the sprocket, the shifting teeth are inserted between two perpendicular chain links. At the same time, the horizontal chain link passes through between the inclined surfaces of the two shifting teeth and falls into the annular groove. The sprocket can be well matched with the chain, effectively improving the phenomenon of chain jamming. Moreover, the baffles on both sides of the sprocket limit the chain links, enabling the sprocket to mesh with the chain links, reducing the risk of chain loosening, and improving the working stability of the chain.
[0016] 2. The rail-chain type passenger-carrying device provided by the utility model is installed on a mountain slope. Operation stations are arranged at the foot and the top of the mountain. The upward track, the downward track and the return track form a loop. Two return tracks are installed at both ends of the device, and sprockets are equipped at the return tracks. One of the sprockets drives the chain to run. The hanging basket is driven by the chain and shuttles along the upward track and the downward track to transport tourists. It can go up and down simultaneously, reducing the waiting time of tourists, having a relatively high transportation efficiency, occupying relatively less space, being convenient for installation and safe to use. Therefore, it has good popularization and application value.
[0017] For the parts not involved in this device, they are the same as the prior art or can be implemented by using the prior art. The rail-chain type passenger-carrying device provided by the utility model has the hanging basket driven by the chain to shuttle along the upward track and the downward track to transport tourists, effectively improving the chain jamming phenomenon and enhancing the working stability of the chain.
[0018] Other advantages, objectives and features of the utility model will be described to some extent in the subsequent specification; and to some extent, based on the study of the following text, they will be obvious to those skilled in the art; or, they can be learned from the practice of the utility model.

[0031] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments.
[0032] Referring to Figures 1 - 10 , a rail-chain type manned device includes a rail 1 and a chain 2. The chain 2 longitudinally passes through the inside of the rail 1 along the rail 1, and a hanging basket 3 is suspended below the chain 2. It also includes sprockets rotatably arranged at both ends of the rail 1. The sprockets are engaged with the chain 2. The sprocket includes a wheel body 4 and two baffles 5 symmetrically installed on both sides of the wheel body 4. A plurality of groups of poking teeth 6 are evenly distributed on the outer peripheral surface of the wheel body 4, and an annular groove 7 is also provided on the outer peripheral surface of the wheel body 4. One of the sprockets is connected to a motor 15. Through the above set structure, when the chain 2 passes through the sprocket, the baffles 5 on both sides of the sprocket limit the link, so that the sprocket is engaged with the link, reducing the risk of loosening.
[0033] In this embodiment, the number of each group of poking teeth 6 is two. Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 again. The two poking teeth 6 in the same group are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the annular groove 7. The poking teeth 6 can be inserted between two vertical links 202 to drive the chain 2 to run, thereby transporting the tourists sitting on the hanging basket 3.
[0034] Furthermore, a plurality of notches 8 are evenly distributed on the outer peripheral surface of the baffle 5, and the notches 8 and the tooth projections 6 are alternately arranged in sequence. By providing the notches 8 corresponding to the vertical chain links 202 on the baffle 5, interference between the hooks 9 on the vertical chain links 202 and the baffle 5 when the hooks 9 on the vertical chain links 202 synchronously follow the chain 2 through the sprocket wheel is avoided.
[0035] Specifically, the side surface of the tooth projection 6 close to the annular groove 7 is an inclined surface, the inclined surface is connected to the annular groove 7, and the inclined surface gradually inclines outward along the direction away from the outer peripheral surface of the wheel body 4. This facilitates the horizontal chain link 201 to pass through between the inclined surfaces of the two tooth projections 6 and fall into the annular groove 7, enabling better cooperation between the sprocket wheel and the chain 2.
[0036] Please refer to again Figure 5 , the chain 2 includes a plurality of chain links connected end to end in sequence, the chain links are in a closed-loop structure, the chain links are divided into horizontal chain links 201 and vertical chain links 202, and the vertical chain links 202 are connected to the hanging basket 3 through the hooks 9.
[0037] Please refer to again Figure 8 , the track 1 includes an upward track 101, a downward track 102 and a turning-back track 103. The upward track 101 and the downward track 102 are laid in parallel along the mountain slope. The upward track 101 and the downward track 102 each include a plurality of straight segments to adapt to the mountain slopes at different stages; the turning-back track 103 is a semi-circular track, and the turning-back track 103 is connected to both ends of the upward track 101 and the downward track 102.
[0038] As an implementable mode, the utility model further includes a support body arranged below the track 1. The support body includes a plurality of columns 10 arranged on the mountain slope and a cross beam 11 arranged at the top of the columns 10. The upward track 101 and the downward track 102 are respectively installed at both ends of the cross beam 11. Through the above arrangement structure, the tourists going up the mountain and going down the mountain do not interfere with each other; wherein, the lower ends of the columns 10 are fixed on the mountain slope by the foundation connected below, achieving the effect of firm fixation.
[0039] Please refer to again Figure 2 , the wheel body 4 and the baffle 5 are connected by bolts 12. Installation holes 13 are provided at the centers of the wheel body 4 and the baffle 5, and key grooves 14 are provided on the inner hole walls of the installation holes 13. When one of the sprocket wheels is driven by a motor 15 as a driving wheel, the sprocket wheel is sleeved on the output shaft of the motor 15 through the installation hole 13 and fixed by the key groove 14 and a flat key.
[0040] The working principle of the utility model is as follows:
[0041] Please refer to again Figure 1, which shows the practical application of the rail-chain type passenger-carrying device provided by the present utility model: The device is installed on a mountain slope, and operation stations are set at the foot and the top of the mountain. The device mainly consists of three rails, namely an up-track 101, a down-track 102 and a turning-back track 103. The turning-back tracks 103 are located at both ends of the device, and sprockets are equipped at the positions of the turning-back tracks 103. One of the sprockets is driven by a motor 15 to form a driving wheel for driving the chain 2 to run. When the chain 2 runs, the hanging basket 3 is driven by the chain 2 and shuttles along the up-track 101 and the down-track 102 to transport tourists, enabling them to go up the mountain and come down the mountain as well.
[0042] During the operation of the device, when the chain 2 passes by the sprocket, please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 again. The shifting teeth 6 are inserted between two vertical chain links 202, and at the same time, the horizontal chain link 201 passes through between the inclined surfaces of the two shifting teeth 6 and falls into the annular groove 7. Such a design enables the sprocket 2 to form a good fit with the chain 2, effectively improving the phenomenon of chain jamming. Moreover, the baffles 5 on both sides of the sprocket limit the chain links, enabling the sprocket to mesh with the chain links, reducing the risk of chain loosening and improving the working stability of the chain.
[0043] In summary, the rail-chain type passenger-carrying device provided by the present utility model can go up and down simultaneously, reducing the waiting time of tourists, having a relatively high transportation efficiency, occupying a relatively small space, being convenient for installation and safe to use. Therefore, it has good popularization and application value.
