[0030] Embodiment 1

[0031] As Figures 1 to 3As shown in the figure, a gantry crane is disclosed. The crane includes a gantry 1, sprockets 2 provided at both ends of the columns of the gantry 1, a chain 3 connecting the two sprockets 2, and a motor 4 is also provided on the gantry 1. The output end of the motor 4 is connected to the sprocket 2 on the column. A connecting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the chain 3, and a clamp for clamping materials is provided on the connecting plate 5.

[0032] In this embodiment, the gantry 1 serves as a moving frame and a support frame. The clamp for clamping materials (such as carbon blocks stacked together) is arranged on the gantry 1. By driving the gantry 1 to move, large-range operations can be realized.

[0033] Specifically, the gantry 1 includes four columns. A sprocket 2 can be provided at both ends of the four columns of the gantry 1, and a chain 3 is connected between the two sprockets 2. When the sprocket 2 rotates, it drives the chain 3 to move. A motor 4 is also provided on the gantry 1. The output end of the motor 4 is connected to the sprocket 2 on the column. When the motor 4 starts, it drives the sprocket 2 to rotate, and finally drives the chain 3 to move.

[0034] A connecting plate 5 is connected to the chain 3. The connecting plate 5 moves up and down with the chain 3, and the connecting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the clamp 6.

[0035] Through the gantry 1, the clamp is moved directly above the carbon block. The motor 4 is started, and the chain 3 is driven to move through the sprocket 2, so as to control the clamp to move to the position where the carbon block is to be clamped. Finally, the clamp 6 clamps the carbon block. The motor 4 rotates in reverse, the clamp 6 hoists the carbon block, and finally the movement of the gantry 1 is controlled, so as to realize the clamping and transfer of the carbon block. The four corners of the clamp 6 are all connected to the chain 3 through the connecting block 5. The clamp 6 is stably connected to the chain 3, and the clamp 6 will not shake during the hoisting process.

[0036] At the same time, in this embodiment, the clamp 6 is connected to the gantry 1 through the sprocket 2 and the chain 3, and the structure is firm, so that the crane can meet the handling of heavy materials.

[0037] Embodiment 2

[0038] A gantry crane is disclosed. The crane includes a gantry 1, sprockets 2 provided at both ends of the columns of the gantry 1, a chain 3 connecting the two sprockets 2, and a motor 4 is also provided on the gantry 1. The output end of the motor 4 is connected to the sprocket 2 on the column. A connecting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the chain 3, and a clamp for clamping materials is provided on the connecting plate 5.

[0039] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that: for the convenience of connecting the connecting plate 5 and the chain 3, the two can be connected through a pin shaft 11.

[0040] For the convenience of installing the clamp 6, a clamp mounting seat 7 can also be provided on the connecting plate 5, and the clamp 6 is installed on the clamp mounting seat 7.

[0041] Example 3

[0042] Disclose a gantry crane spreader. The spreader includes a gantry 1, sprockets 2 arranged at both ends of the columns of the gantry 1, a chain 3 connecting the two sprockets 2, and a motor 4 is further arranged on the gantry 1. The output end of the motor 4 is connected to the sprocket 2 on the column; a connecting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the chain 3, and a fixture for clamping materials is arranged on the connecting plate 5.

[0043] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that: after the fixture 6 clamps the material and moves up and down relative to the gantry 1, under the action of the gravity of the fixture 6 and the material, the bottom plate of the connecting plate 5 will be tightly pressed against the chain 3. When the chain 3 moves up and down, it is inevitable that the two will collide and generate noise, and there is also a hidden danger of chain damage. Therefore, a guide wheel adapted to the chain 3 can be arranged on the connecting plate 5.

[0044] Example 4

[0045] Disclose a gantry crane spreader. The spreader includes a gantry 1, sprockets 2 arranged at both ends of the columns of the gantry 1, a chain 3 connecting the two sprockets 2, and a motor 4 is further arranged on the gantry 1. The output end of the motor 4 is connected to the sprocket 2 on the column; a connecting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the chain 3, and a fixture for clamping materials is arranged on the connecting plate 5.

[0046] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that: a cross beam is arranged at the top of the gantry 1, and a motor mounting seat is arranged on the cross beam. The motors 4 are respectively mounted on the motor mounting seats.

[0047] Specifically, two motor mounting seats can be set, and one motor 4 is mounted on each motor mounting seat.

[0048] In this embodiment, the output end of the motor 4 is connected to a coupling 8, and the sprocket 2 is connected to the coupling 8. At the same time, in order to facilitate the connection between the sprocket 2 and the coupling 8, a connecting shaft 9 can also be arranged between the coupling 8 and the sprocket 2.

[0049] The coupling 8 is also called a coupling. It is a mechanical component used to firmly connect the driving shaft and the driven shaft in different mechanisms to rotate together and transmit motion and torque. Sometimes it is also used to connect the shaft to other parts (such as gears, belt pulleys, etc.). It is usually composed of two halves, which are respectively connected by keys or tight fits, fastened to both ends of the two shafts, and then the two halves are connected in some way. The coupling is a prior art, and its specific structure will not be described in detail here.

[0050] Example 5

[0051] Disclose a gantry spreader. The spreader includes a gantry 1, sprockets 2 arranged at both ends of the columns of the gantry 1, a chain 3 connecting the two sprockets 2, and a motor 4 is also arranged on the gantry 1. The output end of the motor 4 is connected to the sprocket 2 on the column; a connecting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the chain 3, and a fixture for clamping materials is arranged on the connecting plate 5.

[0052] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that: four traveling wheels 10 are arranged at the bottom of the gantry 1. Specifically, a connecting seat for connecting the traveling wheels can be connected to the bottom of the column, and the traveling wheels 10 are installed on the connecting seat, and the height of the traveling wheels 10 is lower than the height of the sprocket 2 at the bottom of the column. The rotation and steering of the traveling wheels 10 are controlled by a driving device.

[0053] Embodiment 6

[0054] Disclose a gantry spreader. The spreader includes a gantry 1, sprockets 2 arranged at both ends of the columns of the gantry 1, a chain 3 connecting the two sprockets 2, and a motor 4 is also arranged on the gantry 1. The output end of the motor 4 is connected to the sprocket 2 on the column; a connecting plate 5 is fixedly connected to the chain 3, and a fixture for clamping materials is arranged on the connecting plate 5.

[0055] The difference between this embodiment and the above embodiments is that: in order to realize the automatic lifting of materials, the motor 4, the fixture 6 and the traveling wheels 10 are all communicatively connected to the background control terminal.

[0056] The background control terminal controls the start or operation of the motor 4, the fixture 6 and the traveling wheels 10, so as to realize the automatic movement of the gantry 1 and the automatic clamping of the fixture 6, and finally realize the automatic control of clamping and handling materials, without manual operation, greatly saving labor costs.

[0057] Obviously, the above embodiments are only examples for clearly explaining the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than limitations on the implementation manners of the present invention. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made on the basis of the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all the implementation manners here.
