Detailed Embodiments
[0031] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the following further details the present invention in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.

[0033] It should be noted that for the installation and disassembly of the counterweight of traditional tower cranes, lifting equipment such as truck cranes is also used for hoisting. However, due to possible site limitations during the main construction process, the hoisting equipment cannot be erected or the required hoisting equipment model is too large, it is difficult to complete the hoisting of the counterweight.
[0034] As Figures 1 - 4 shown, this embodiment provides a structure for self-installation and self-disassembly of the tower crane counterweight. Using the hoisting mechanism 1 of the tower crane 6 as the hoisting equipment, the hoisting wire rope 4 of the tower crane 6 is connected to the counterweight through the wire rope arranging device and the guiding pulley group of the counterweight hoisting auxiliary frame 3, and the hoisting mechanism 1 is operated to hoist and lower for the installation and disassembly of the counterweight block 5. By using the self-device of the tower crane 6 to install and disassemble the counterweight block 5, the counterweight block 5 can be quickly and safely installed and disassembled without external auxiliary equipment.
[0035] The counterweight hoisting auxiliary frame 3 is movably arranged on the tower crane 6, and the guiding pulley group 31 on the counterweight hoisting auxiliary frame 3 moves along with the movement of the counterweight hoisting auxiliary frame 3. The guiding pulley group 31 can move to directly above the counterweight block 5, thereby reducing the sway of the counterweight block 5 during movement and ensuring the stability of the counterweight block 5 during hoisting.
[0036] Specifically, it includes a hoisting mechanism 1, a wire rope arranging device, a counterweight hoisting auxiliary frame 3 and a wire rope 4. The hoisting mechanism 1 is installed on the tower crane 6; the wire rope arranging device includes a first pulley 21, and the first pulley 21 is installed on the tower crane 6; the counterweight hoisting auxiliary frame 3 is movably arranged on the tower crane 6, and a guiding pulley group 31 is provided on the counterweight hoisting auxiliary frame 3; one end of the wire rope 4 is installed on the hoisting mechanism 1, and the other end of the wire rope 4 is connected to the counterweight block 5 after passing through the first pulley 21 and the guiding pulley group 31 in sequence.
[0037] In actual operation, the staff only needs to control the hoisting mechanism 1 to install and disassemble the counterweight 5. When installing the counterweight 5, place the counterweight 5 in a suitable position, then connect the steel wire rope 4 to the counterweight 5 through the hoisting mechanism 1, and start the hoisting mechanism 1 to lift the counterweight 5 to the designated position. When disassembling the counterweight 5, only need to operate the hoisting mechanism 1 in reverse to relax the steel wire rope 4, and the counterweight 5 can descend and detach from the tower crane 6.
[0038] The structure of the tower crane 6 with self-installing and self-disassembling counterweight not only improves work efficiency, reduces operation difficulty, but also reduces dependence on external equipment and lowers costs.
[0039] In one embodiment, the rope arranging device further includes a load limiter, which is connected to the first pulley 21. The load limiter is a safety device that is directly connected to the first pulley 21 or connected through other transmission mechanisms, and is used to monitor in real time the tension borne by the steel wire rope 4 passing through the first pulley 21. When the tension exceeds the preset safety value, the load limiter will immediately send an alarm signal and even automatically cut off the power supply to prevent safety accidents caused by overload.
[0040] In one embodiment, the first pulley 21 is installed on the tower crane 6 through a mounting bracket 22. The mounting bracket 22 is firm and stable, and can withstand various forces and torques generated by the first pulley 21 and the steel wire rope 4. The installation method of the mounting bracket 22 is customized according to the specific structure and size of the tower crane 6 to ensure that the first pulley 21 can be stably installed on the tower crane 6.
[0041] Preferably, the height of the first pulley 21 is greater than the height of the hoisting mechanism 1. The purpose of this setting is, firstly, to ensure that there is enough space for the steel wire rope 4 to bend and stretch when passing around the first pulley 21, reducing the wear of the steel wire rope 4 caused by too small a bending radius; secondly, to increase the overall height of the rope arranging device, so that the steel wire rope 4 can be kept away from the tower crane 6 and the obstacles on the tower crane 6 during the lifting and lowering process, reducing the risk of accidental collision; thirdly, to form a certain distance between the rope arranging device and the hoisting mechanism 1, which is beneficial to the neat arrangement of the steel wire rope 4 and prevents entanglement.
[0042] In one embodiment, the counterweight lifting auxiliary frame 3 includes a vertical support rod 32 and a transverse connecting piece 33, and the vertical support rod 32 and the transverse connecting piece 33 enclose a cuboid-shaped space structure by means of permutation and combination.
[0043] When constructing the cuboid frame, set the length, width, and height of the rectangular frame according to the dimensions of the tower crane 6 and the counterweight 5. The vertical support rod 32 uses square steel pipe as the main body, and a steel plate sealing plate is welded on the top of the square steel pipe to increase its bearing capacity and stability. The horizontal connecting piece 33 uses square steel pipe as the main body to connect and reinforce the vertical support rod 32, and the whole frame forms a solid whole, which can bear a large lifting force. Install two steel beams made by buckling two channel steels 311 on the top surface of the frame. The steel beam serves as the main load-bearing member 34 of the counterweight lifting auxiliary frame 3 and bears the weight of the whole counterweight 5. Finally, weld two connecting plates on the load-bearing member 34 for welding and fixing the guide pulley set 31 in the slot of the channel steel 311.
[0044] In one embodiment, the guide pulley set 31 includes a channel steel 311 and a second pulley 312. The channel steel 311 is installed on the counterweight lifting auxiliary frame 3 and plays a role in fixing and supporting the second pulley 312. The second pulley 312 is installed on the channel steel 311 and is used to guide the direction of the steel wire rope 4 to ensure that the counterweight 5 can be lifted and lowered smoothly.
[0045] In one embodiment, the height of the second pulley 312 is less than the height of the first pulley 21. The purpose of this setting is that during the lifting process, the steel wire rope 4 can maintain a certain tension to prevent accidents caused by slack.
[0046] In one embodiment, the bottom of the counterweight lifting auxiliary frame 3 is provided with retractable moving wheels, and corresponding sliding rails are provided at the corresponding positions of the tower crane 6. The moving wheels move along the sliding rails. When the counterweight lifting auxiliary frame 3 needs to move, the moving wheels at the bottom of the counterweight lifting auxiliary frame 3 extend and slide along the preset sliding rails on the tower crane 6; when it moves to the required position, the moving wheels retract, and the counterweight lifting auxiliary frame 3 is installed on the tower crane 6. The sliding rails are made of high-strength and wear-resistant materials to ensure the stability and reliability during the moving process.
[0047] The telescopic mechanism of the moving wheels can be realized by electric, pneumatic or manual means. In the electric or pneumatic mode, by controlling the expansion and contraction of the motor or cylinder, the extension and contraction of the moving wheels are driven. In the manual mode, the extension and contraction of the moving wheels can be controlled by an operating rod or a handle.
[0048] In one embodiment, the counterweight lifting auxiliary frame 3 and the tower crane 6 are connected by bolts to ensure firm connection and easy disassembly. Corresponding connection holes and positioning grooves are respectively provided on the counterweight lifting auxiliary frame 3 and the tower crane 6 to ensure the accuracy and stability of the connection.
[0049] In one embodiment, a rope clip is provided at the end of the steel wire rope 4, and the rope clip is connected to the hook, and the hook is connected to the lifting lug of the counterweight 5. The rope clip is made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials and has undergone strict quality inspection to ensure its load-bearing capacity and service life. The lifting lug is a structural member preset on the counterweight 5 for lifting, and matches the shape and size of the hook.
[0050] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or changes based on the above description, and all these improvements and changes should fall within the scope of protection of the claims attached to the utility model.
[0051] The above is an exemplary description of the utility model patent in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is obvious that the implementation of the utility model patent is not limited to the above-mentioned method. As long as various improvements are made by adopting the method concept and technical solution of the utility model patent, or the concept and technical solution of the utility model patent are directly applied to other occasions without improvement, they are all within the protection scope of the utility model.
