[0002] A gantry crane, also known as a portal crane, is a kind of lifting equipment commonly used in places such as ports, freight yards, and railway freight stations. It is supported by one or more pairs of legs to support a crossbeam (i.e., a bridge), and can move on rails to facilitate the loading and unloading of goods or the handling of heavy objects.
[0003] During the working process of the existing shipbuilding gantry crane, for the lateral displacement driving mode of the lifting mechanism on the crossbeam, the method of directly driving the roller by a motor is adopted on the lifting mechanism to move in the notch of the crossbeam. In this transmission mode, in order to generate sufficient torque, the direct drive motor is often larger and heavier than the traditional motor, resulting in the need for a larger and more stable installation structure connected to the direct drive motor, which causes the overall volume of the lifting mechanism to be large and bulky, and the transverse movement speed to be slow.
