Specific implementation manner
[0021] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , this embodiment provides a technical solution: a bridge crane, including a bridge frame 1 and an angle detection unit 5;
[0023] Bridge frame 1: A moving trolley 2 is slidably connected to its lower end. The sliding connection manner between the moving trolley 2 and the bridge frame 1 is a common manner in the existing track trolley technology. The bridge frame 1 moves along the external track. A hoist 3 is provided in the middle of the moving trolley 2. The hoist 3 controls the winding and unwinding of the steel wire rope to move the hook up and down. Symmetrically distributed racks 15 are provided on the lower surface of the moving trolley 2. A transmission shaft 12 is rotatably connected to the middle of the moving trolley 2. Gears 13 are provided at the front and rear ends of the outer arc surface of the transmission shaft 12. Both gears 13 are meshed with the vertically corresponding racks 15. A motor 14 is provided on the front side of the moving trolley 2. The output shaft of the motor 14 is fixedly connected to the front end of the transmission shaft 12. The input end of the motor 14 is electrically connected to the output end of the controller 4. When the motor 14 operates, the output shaft of the motor 14 drives the transmission shaft 12 to rotate. The transmission shaft 12 drives the two gears 13 to rotate. The gears 13 are meshed with the fixed racks 15. Thus, the gears 13 will drive the moving trolley 2 to move along the bridge frame 1 through the transmission shaft 12;
[0024] Angle detection unit 5: It includes a support shaft 53, a rope sleeve 54, and an inclination sensor 55. The support shaft 53 is movably connected to the lower surface of the mobile trolley 2. A rope sleeve 54 is provided at the lower end of the support shaft 53. The steel wire rope of the winch 3 passes through the front end of the rope sleeve 54. An inclination sensor 55 is provided on the lower surface of the rope sleeve 54. When the steel wire rope is inclined, the steel wire rope drives the support shaft 53 to incline synchronously through the rope sleeve 54, and the rope sleeve 54 drives the inclination sensor 55 to incline. The angle detection unit 5 further includes a ball head seat 51 and a ball head 52. The ball head seat 51 is provided on the lower surface of the mobile trolley 2. A ball head 52 is rotatably connected inside the ball head seat 51. The outer arc surface of the ball head 52 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the support shaft 53. When the ball head 52 and the ball head seat 51 are relatively displaced, a spring 8 is movably sleeved on the upper end of the outer arc surface of the support shaft 53. A support ring 9 is provided at the lower end of the outer arc surface of the support shaft 53. The spring 8 is located between the support ring 9 and the ball head seat 51. The support ring 9 and the ball head seat 51 are fixedly connected to both ends of the spring 8. The spring 8 restricts the rotation of the support shaft 53. The support shaft 53 drives the support ring 9 to swing synchronously and squeeze the spring 8, and the spring 8 undergoes elastic deformation. The spring 8 can assist in straightening the support shaft 53 through the support ring 9. Symmetrically distributed arc-shaped pieces 6 are installed inside the circular hole at the front end of the rope sleeve 54. The steel wire rope passes through the ring formed by the two arc-shaped pieces 6. The arc-shaped pieces 6 are replaceable brass arc-shaped pieces, which can reduce the wear of the rope sleeve 54. A warning light 10 and an alarm 11 are provided at the rear side of the lower surface of the mobile trolley 2. The warning light 10 is located in front of the alarm 11. The input ends of the warning light 10 and the alarm 11 are electrically connected to the output end of the controller 4. A limit switch 7 is provided on the lower surface of the rope sleeve 54. The limit switch 7 is arranged in cooperation with the hook of the winch 3. The output end of the limit switch 7 is electrically connected to the input end of the controller 4. The limit switch 7 detects the position of the hook to facilitate the winch 3 to stop in time;
[0025] Among them: It further includes a controller 4. The controller 4 is arranged on the front side of the bridge 1. The input end of the winch 3 is electrically connected to the output end of the controller 4. The output end of the inclination sensor 55 is electrically connected to the input end of the controller 4. The input of the controller 4 is electrically connected to an external power supply. The inclination sensor 55 can detect the inclination of the steel wire rope. The inclination sensor 55 converts the inclination information into an electrical signal and transmits it to the controller 4. When the inclination of the steel wire rope exceeds the set value, the controller 4 controls the winch 3 to stop working.
[0026] The working principle of a bridge crane provided by the present utility model is as follows: The end of the steel wire rope of the hoist 3 passes through the round hole at the front end of the rope socket 54 and is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the moving trolley 2. The lower end of the steel wire rope is U-shaped. The pulley at the upper end of the hook is slidably connected to the steel wire rope of the hoist 3. During use, the controller 4 is adjusted. The hoist 3 controls the retraction and release of the steel wire rope to control the up and down movement of the hook. When in the hoisting process, when the hook and the object are sometimes located below the moving trolley 2 and the steel wire rope is inclined, the steel wire rope drives the support shaft 53 to tilt synchronously through the arc-shaped piece 6 and the rope socket 54. The ball head 52 and the ball head seat 51 are relatively displaced. The support shaft 53 drives the support ring 9 to swing synchronously to squeeze the spring 8. The spring 8 undergoes elastic deformation. At the same time, the rope socket 54 drives the inclination sensor 55 to tilt. Furthermore, the inclination sensor 55 can detect the inclination of the steel wire rope. The inclination sensor 55 converts the inclination information into an electrical signal and transmits it to the controller 4. When the inclination of the steel wire rope exceeds the set value, the controller 4 controls the hoist 3 to stop working, thereby avoiding oblique hoisting. At the same time, the warning light 10 and the alarm 11 work synchronously to give sound and light warnings. At this time, the operator can adjust the controller 4, and the motor 14 operates. The output shaft of the motor 14 drives the transmission shaft 12 to rotate. The transmission shaft 12 drives the two gears 13 to rotate. The gears 13 are meshed and connected to the fixed rack 15. Furthermore, the gears 13 drive the moving trolley 2 to move along the bridge frame 1 through the transmission shaft 12, and the position of the moving trolley 2 can be adjusted to ensure vertical hoisting and carry out lifting. At the same time, the spring 8 can assist in straightening the support shaft 53 through the support ring 9, and the hoist 3 hoists the object.
[0027] It should be noted that the controller 4, inclination sensor 55, limit switch 7, hoist 3, warning light 10, alarm 11, and motor 14 disclosed in the above embodiments can all be freely configured according to the actual application scenario. The controller 4 can select a PLC controller with the model S7-1200. The inclination sensor 55 can select an inclination sensor with the model EM310-TI LT. The limit switch 7 can select a photoelectric switch with the model E3FA-DP15. The hoist 3 can select a hoist with the model JM5T. The warning light 10 can select a three-color warning light with the model M4-50S. The alarm 11 can select an alarm with the model BJ-60. The motor 14 can select a gear reduction motor with the model TCV28-750. The controller 4 controls the inclination sensor 55, limit switch 7, hoist 3, warning light 10, alarm 11, and motor 14 to work using the methods commonly used in the prior art.
