Obviously, the described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without making creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0028] Referring to Figures 1-4 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a windproof braking structure for a tower crane slewing mechanism, including a lower turntable 1 and a braking and blocking mechanism 5. An upper turntable 2 is installed on the top of the lower turntable 1, a fixed ring 3 is installed on the surface of the upper turntable 2, and a connecting plate 4 is installed on the surface of the fixed ring 3. After moving the braking and blocking mechanism 5, it can be inserted into the connecting plate 4, so as to facilitate the limitation of the upper turntable 2, and it can block and brake when the slewing structure needs to be limited, thereby avoiding the rotation of the slewing structure in strong winds.
[0029] Referring to Figures 1-4 , in a preferred embodiment, by setting the braking and blocking mechanism 5, the braking and blocking mechanism 5 includes a limiting groove 51, a first mounting cylinder 52 and a limiting rod 53. The limiting groove 51 is opened at the top of the connecting plate 4, the first mounting cylinder 52 is installed on the top of the lower turntable 1, the limiting rod 53 is inserted into the top of the first mounting cylinder 52, and the limiting rod 53 is inserted and matched with the limiting groove 51. After the first mounting cylinder 52 is installed, the limiting rod 53 can be installed, and it is convenient to move the limiting rod 53 upward and insert it into the limiting groove 51, so that the limiting rod 53 limits the upper turntable 2, and prevents the structure on the upper turntable 2 from being blown by strong winds and causing the upper turntable 2 to rotate.
[0030] Meanwhile, a tension spring 6 is installed on the inner wall of the first mounting cylinder 52, a limit disk 7 is installed at the bottom of the limit rod 53, and the top end of the tension spring 6 is connected to the bottom of the limit disk 7. An activity slot 8 is formed on the front surface of the first mounting cylinder 52, a pulling plate 9 is installed on the surface of the limit disk 7, and the pulling plate 9 penetrates to the outside of the activity slot 8. After the pulling plate 9 is pulled, the limit disk 7 can be driven to move, so that the limit disk 7 stretches the tension spring 6, and the tension spring 6 drives the limit disk 7 and the limit rod 53 to move, so that the limit rod 53 is inserted into the limiting slot 51, and then the connecting plate 4 can be limited.
[0031] Refer to Figures 1-2 , in a preferred embodiment, a second mounting cylinder 10 is installed on the top of the lower turntable 1, and a plug-in block 11 is inserted into the inner wall of the second mounting cylinder 10. A plug-in slot 20 is formed at the bottom of the fixed ring 3, and a plurality of plug-in slots 20 are provided, so that the plug-in block 11 can be installed after the second mounting cylinder 10 is installed. A spring 12 is installed on the inner wall of the second mounting cylinder 10, and the top end of the spring 12 is connected to the bottom of the plug-in block 11. The plug-in block 11 is in plug-in fit with the plug-in slot 20, so that the spring 12 can squeeze the plug-in block 11 after installation, so that the plug-in block 11 is inserted into the plug-in slot 20, and then the fixed ring 3 can be limited. It should be noted here that an electromagnet is installed at the bottom of the plug-in block 11, and the electromagnet (not shown in the figure) can adsorb an adsorption piece (not shown in the figure) at the bottom of the inner wall of the second mounting cylinder 10 after being energized, so that the plug-in block 11 is separated from the plug-in slot 20, avoiding affecting the rotation of the upper turntable 2. When encountering a small wind, the upper turntable 2 can be limited by inserting the plug-in block 11 into the plug-in slot 20, playing a damping role.
[0032] Refer to Figures 1-4 , in a preferred embodiment, a fixing plate 13 is installed on the surface of the first mounting cylinder 52, a through rod 14 is installed on the top of the fixing plate 13, and the top of the through rod 14 penetrates through the pulling plate 9 and is slidably connected to the pulling plate 9. After the fixing plate 13 is installed, the through rod 14 can be limited, so that the through rod 14 can pass through the pulling plate 9, and then it is convenient for the through rod 14 to limit the pulling plate 9, so as to facilitate the stable movement of the pulling plate 9.
[0033] Meanwhile, a connecting seat 15 is installed on the top of the fixing plate 13. A rotating seat 16 is rotatably installed on the top of the connecting seat 15. A rotating plate 17 is installed on the top of the rotating seat 16. A fixing block 18 is installed on the surface of the rotating plate 17. A cushion block 19 is installed on the top of the fixing block 18. The rotating plate 17 is in clamping fit with the pulling plate 9, which can install the rotating seat 16 after the connecting seat 15 is installed, facilitate the installation of the rotating plate 17 on the rotating seat 16, and thus facilitate the rotation of the rotating plate 17 and the clamping of the rotating plate 17 with the pulling plate 9. After the fixing block 18 is installed, the cushion block 19 can be installed, and the cushion block 19 can support the pulling plate 9, thereby limiting the pulling plate 9 and facilitating the limiting of the upper turntable 2 by the limiting rod 53.
[0034] Specifically, the working process or working principle of the anti-wind braking structure for a tower crane slewing mechanism is as follows: When it is necessary to limit and brake the upper turntable 2 in the slewing structure, the pulling plate 9 is moved upward, so that the pulling plate 9 drives the limiting disc 7 to move upward, which can pull the tension spring 6 upward, facilitate the limiting rod 53 driven by the limiting disc 7 to be inserted into the limiting groove 51, and then facilitate the limiting of the connecting plate 4, and the upper turntable 2 can be limited through the connecting plate 4 and the fixing ring 3. After the limiting rod 53 is inserted into the limiting groove 51, the rotating plate 17 is rotated so that the rotating plate 17 is clamped to the side of the pulling plate 9. After the rotating plate 17 is rotated, the cushion block 19 can be attached to the pulling plate 9, so that the cushion block 19 and the fixing block 18 can support the pulling plate 9, prevent the tension spring 6 from pulling the limiting disc 7 and the limiting rod 53 to move downward, and thus facilitate the limitation of the upper turntable 2 and prevent the structure above the upper turntable 2 from being blown by strong wind and causing the slewing structure to rotate.
