[0033] Embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to explain the present utility model and should not be construed as limiting the present utility model.

[0034] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , a lifting mechanism for an aircraft engine installation platform, which includes a fixed frame 10, a lifting frame 20, and a scissor support frame 30. The lifting frame 20 is located above the fixed frame 10, and the two scissor support frames 30 are respectively located on both sides between the lifting frame 20 and the fixed frame 10. One end of the lower side of the scissor support frame 30 is fixedly connected to the fixed frame 10, and the other end is slidably connected to the fixed frame 10. Both ends of the upper side of the scissor support frame 30 are slidably connected to the lifting frame 20. A cross beam 34 is installed between the two scissor support frames 30. One end of the lifting oil cylinder 35 is hinged to the fixed frame 10, and the other end is hinged to the cross beam 34. A flat push device 60 is further installed on the lower side of the lifting frame 20, and the flat push device 60 is connected to the scissor support frame 30. The lifting of the lifting frame 20 is realized through the scissor support frame 30. The lifting frame 20 is installed on the scissor support frame 30 through a sliding structure, and the translation of the lifting frame 20 is realized under the action of the flat push device 60.

[0035] In this embodiment, the scissor support frame 30 is two cross scissor frames, which are respectively installed on both sides between the fixed frame 10 and the lifting frame 20.

[0036] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 、 3 , each scissor support frame 30 on each side includes a first support arm 31 and a second support arm 32. The middle parts of the first support arm 31 and the second support arm 32 are rotationally connected through a pivot 33. The pivot 33 is similar to a bolt structure, and the first support arm 31 and the second support arm 32 are limited by nuts.

[0037] Refer to Figure 2 , the lower end of the first support arm 31 is installed with a first support 311 through a first hinge shaft 36. The first support 311 is slidably connected to the fixed frame 10 through a sliding structure. The upper end of the first support arm 31 is installed with a second support 312 through a second hinge shaft 37. The second support 312 is slidably connected to the lifting frame 20 through a sliding structure. The lower end of the second support arm 32 is installed with a third support 321 through a second hinge shaft 37. The third support 321 is fixedly connected to the fixed frame 10. The upper end of the second support arm 32 is installed with a fourth support 322 through a second hinge shaft 37. The fourth support 322 is slidably connected to the lifting frame 20 through a sliding structure.

[0038] The structures of the first support 311, the second support 312, the third support 321, and the fourth support 322 are the same. Each of them is composed of two ear plates welded on a base plate, and the end of the support arm is hinged between the two ear plates.

[0039] In this embodiment, referring to Figure 3 , the sliding structure is a linear slide rail assembly 40. The linear slide rail assembly 40 includes a linear guide rail 41 and a slider 42. The linear guide rail 41 is used to be installed on the fixed frame 10 and the lifting frame 20, and the slider 42 is used to be installed at the bottoms of the first support 311, the second support 312, and the fourth support 322. The slider 42 slides directionally on the linear guide rail 41. Through the above structure, the flexible lifting of the scissor support frame 30 and the flexible translation of the lifting frame 20 are realized.

[0040] Of course, in addition to the above structure, the sliding structure can also adopt other structures, such as the structure of a dovetail slider and a dovetail chute. Specifically, dovetail chutes are provided on the fixed frame 10 and the lifting frame 20, and dovetail slider structures are provided at the bottoms of the supports. The dovetail sliders slide directionally in the dovetail chutes.

[0041] Referring to Figure 3 、 4 , both ends of the cross beam 34 are respectively connected to the first support arms 31 of the two scissor support frames 30. One end of the lifting oil cylinder 35 is hinged to the fixed frame 10 through a fifth support 351, and the other end is hinged to the cross beam 34 through a sixth support 352. When the lifting oil cylinder 35 extends, referring to Figure 2 , the lifting oil cylinder 35 pushes one end of the first support arm 31 located at the second support 312 to turn upward, so that the lifting frame 20 translates and rises.

[0042] Referring to Figure 4 , in this embodiment, two lifting oil cylinders 35 are installed.

[0043] Referring to Figure 1 、 3 、5, 6, a limiting device 50 is also installed on the scissor support frame 30. The limiting device 50 includes a limiting rack 51 and a swing block 52. The limiting rack 51 is fixedly installed on the fixed frame 10, and the swing block 52 is rotatably installed on the first hinge shaft 36. When the swing block 52 abuts against the tooth groove of the limiting rack 51, the scissor support frame 30 is limited, thereby preventing the lifting frame 20 from falling when the lifting oil cylinder 35 fails.

[0044] Referring to Figure 6, a limiting hole 361 is provided on the first hinge shaft 36, and a limiting member 521 is installed on the swing block 52. After the limiting member 521 is inserted into the limiting hole 361, the swing block 52 is limited, and at the same time, the swing block 52 does not contact the limiting rack 51. At this time, it is convenient for the scissor support frame 30 to retract, so that the lifting frame 20 falls back. In this embodiment, the limiting member 521 is an insertion pin.

[0045] See Figure 1 、 2 , one end of the flat push device 60 connected to the scissor support frame 30 is connected to the second hinge shaft 37 of the second support 312.

[0046] Specifically, the flat push device 60 is an electric push rod, an oil cylinder or a cylinder.

[0047] The working principle or operation process of the present utility model is as follows:

[0048] When the lifting frame 20 needs to rise, the lifting oil cylinder 35 is controlled by the hydraulic system to extend, so that the lifting frame 20 rises horizontally. When the lifting oil cylinder 35 retracts, the lifting frame 20 descends horizontally.

[0049] When the lifting frame 20 needs to move horizontally, the flat push device 60 pushes and pulls the lifting frame 20, so as to realize the horizontal movement of the lifting frame 20.

[0050] When the scissor support frame 30 needs to be limited, the limiting member 521 is pulled out. At this time, the swing block 52 rotates under the action of gravity and abuts against the limiting rack 51. When the swing block 52 abuts against the tooth groove of the limiting rack 51, the scissor support frame 30 is limited, so as to prevent the lifting frame 20 from falling when the lifting oil cylinder 35 fails.
