[0029] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] The following combination Figures 1 to 5 , describing the embodiments of the present utility model.

[0031] According to an embodiment of the present invention, on the one hand, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an adjustable sling is provided, comprising: a sling crossarm 1 and a lifting lug 2. The sling crossarm 1 is suitable for connection to lifting equipment. The sling crossarm 1 has a mounting cavity 102. A mounting opening is defined at the top of the sling crossarm 1, communicating with the mounting cavity 102. A through slot 101 is defined at the bottom of the sling crossarm 1, communicating with the mounting cavity 102 and extending along the length of the sling crossarm 1. The lifting lug 2 is pluggable with the sling crossarm 1, inserted through the mounting opening into the mounting cavity 102 and into the through slot 101. The lifting lug 2 is movable along the through slot 101.

[0032] By providing a through slot 101 on the spreader cross arm 1, the lifting ear 2 is moved in the through slot 101, thereby changing the position of the lifting ear 2 on the spreader cross arm 1, so that the spreader can be adjusted according to the different load-bearing capacities of the lifting equipment for the suspended object, thereby improving the applicability of the adjustable spreader, eliminating the need for frequent replacement of the spreader, saving materials, and avoiding waste of labor.

[0033] Specifically, in this embodiment, the cross arm 1 of the hoist is a box-shaped square tube, which is horizontally arranged along its length. A mounting opening is provided at the top of the horizontally arranged box-shaped square tube, and a through slot 101 is provided at the bottom of the horizontally arranged box-shaped square tube and extends along the extension direction of the box-shaped square tube. The box-shaped square tube has good mechanical properties and is easy to manufacture, meeting the requirements for lifting heavy objects while also achieving certain economic benefits.

[0034] Specifically, in this embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, a plurality of lifting equipment lifting points 103 are provided on the upper side of the sling cross arm 1, which are connected to the lifting equipment through the plurality of lifting equipment lifting points 103. The lifting equipment lifting points 103 are connecting plates, and connecting holes are provided on the upper side of the connecting plates. The lifting equipment is connected to the sling cross arm 1 through the connecting holes.

[0035] In one embodiment, Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the lifting ear 2 includes a perforated plate 201 and a sealing plate 202. The sealing plate 202 is arranged on the upper side of the perforated plate 201. The upper end of the perforated plate 201 is connected to the bottom surface of the sealing plate 202. The lower end of the perforated plate 201 passes through the through groove 101. The lower end of the perforated plate 201 is provided with a lifting hole 2011, which is suitable for connecting with the object to be lifted.

[0036] In one embodiment, Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the lifting lug 2 further includes a lifting lug rib 203, which is connected to the side wall of the orifice plate 201 and the bottom surface of the sealing plate 202. A plurality of lifting lug ribs 203 are provided, and the plurality of lifting lug ribs 203 are disposed on opposite sides of the orifice plate 201. The provision of the lifting lug ribs 203 further improves the load-bearing capacity of the lifting lug 2, prevents damage to the lifting lug 2, and increases the service life of the lifting lug 2.

[0037] It should be noted that after the object is lifted, its weight needs to be transferred to the cross arm 1 of the sling to distribute the force. The closing plate 202 of the lifting ear 2 is a force transfer component, which is subjected to force together with the lifting ear reinforcement plate 203 to transfer the weight of the object to the cross arm 1 of the sling.

[0038] In one embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the sling crossarm 1 includes a crossarm body 104 and a snap-on assembly 105. The mounting cavity 102 is provided in the crossarm body 104, the mounting opening is provided at the top of the crossarm body 104, and the through slot 101 is provided at the bottom of the crossarm body 104. The snap-on assembly 105 is provided on opposite sides of the through slot 101 and protrudes upward from the bottom surface of the sling crossarm 1 to form a slot 1055. The slot 1055 is connected to the through slot 101, and the lifting lug 2 is plugged into the slot 1055. By providing the snap-on assembly 105 to form the slot 1055, the lifting lug 2 is further limited in position, preventing the lifting lug 2 from moving during the lifting process, which would cause the lifting equipment to be unable to bear the weight of the object being lifted, and thus easily damage the lifting equipment and the sling.

[0039] In one embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a plurality of clamping assemblies 105 are provided, and the plurality of clamping assemblies 105 are spaced apart along the extending direction of the through slot 101. By providing a plurality of clamping assemblies 105, the lifting eye 2 can still be limited after the position is adjusted, further improving the stability and safety of the lifting eye 2 during the lifting process.

[0040] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the distance between adjacent clamping assemblies 105 is 1 / 8 of the length L of the spreader cross arm 1.

[0041] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, only three lifting ears 2 are used for illustration. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the distance between the leftmost lifting eye 2 and the left end of the spreader crossarm 1 is 1 / 4 of the length L of the spreader crossarm 1, and the second and third lifting eyes 2 are set at intervals of 1 / 8 of the length L of the spreader crossarm 1. It can be seen that several lifting eyes 2 are set at intervals of 1 / 8 of the length L of the spreader crossarm 1.

[0042] In one embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the snap-on assembly 105 includes a first clip 1051, a second clip 1052, a third clip 1053 and a fourth clip 1054. The first clip 1051 and the second clip 1052 are spaced apart on one side of the through slot 101, and the third clip 1053 and the fourth clip 1054 are spaced apart on the other side of the through slot 101. The first clip 1051, the second clip 1052, the third clip 1053 and the fourth clip 1054 are surrounded to form a slot 1055, and the ear 2 is plugged into the slot 1055. The bottom surface of the sealing plate 202 is in contact with the top surfaces of the first clip 1051, the second clip 1052, the third clip 1053 and the fourth clip 1054 at the same time.

[0043] In one embodiment, the distance between the first clamping plate 1051 and the second clamping plate 1052 is greater than the thickness of the lifting ear rib 203, and the distance between the third clamping plate 1053 and the fourth clamping plate 1054 is greater than the thickness of the lifting ear rib 203. The distance between the slots 1055 is set to be greater than the thickness of the lifting ear rib 203. This allows the lifting ear 2 to be inserted into the slots 1055 while ensuring a certain clearance between the lifting ear 2 and the slots 1055. This prevents the lifting ear 2 from getting stuck in the slots 1055 during the lifting process, thereby preventing damage to the lifting ear 2.

[0044] Specifically, in this embodiment, the distance between the first clamping plate 1051 and the second clamping plate 1052 is 2 mm greater than the thickness of the ear rib 203. ,The distance between the third clamping plate 1053 and the fourth clamping plate 1054 is 2 mm larger than the thickness of the lifting ear rib 203. By setting a 2 mm movable gap, the lifting ear rib 203 and the slot 1055 are prevented from getting stuck, and the lifting ear 2 is not easy to fall out of the slot 1055, thereby ensuring the stability and safety of the lifting ear 2 during operation.

[0045] In one embodiment, the first clamping plate 1051 , the second clamping plate 1052 , the third clamping plate 1053 and the fourth clamping plate 1054 are all welded to the spreader cross arm 1 .

[0046] In one embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the adjustable spreader further includes a plurality of crossarm ribs 3, which are spaced apart along the length of the spreader crossarm 1 within the mounting cavity 102 and connected to the inner wall of the spreader crossarm 1. The provision of the crossarm ribs 3 further enhances the load-bearing capacity of the spreader crossarm 1, making the structure of the spreader crossarm 1 more robust and increasing the service life of the spreader crossarm 1.

[0047] In one embodiment, the crossarm ribs 3 are welded to the inner wall of the spreader crossarm 1. By welding the crossarm ribs 3 to the inner wall of the crossarm body 104, the load-bearing capacity of the spreader crossarm 1 is effectively increased, and the structural stability of the spreader crossarm 1 is further improved.

[0048] It should be noted that during on-site construction, the starting position of the hoisted object is the on-site yard or fixed stacking position. During lifting, the distance between the hoisted object and the two lifting equipment is different. The lifting weight of the lifting equipment is different due to the different lifting radius. Therefore, the position of the lifting eye 2 needs to be adjusted according to the working conditions.

[0049] Specifically, when adjusting the position of the lifting ear 2 on the cross arm 1 of the sling, first move the lifting ear 2 upward so that the lifting ear rib 203 is completely out of the slot 1055; then, move the lifting ear 2 horizontally to the position required for the lifting equipment to continue working; finally, insert the lifting ear 2 into the new slot 1055 and the through groove 101 to complete the position adjustment of the lifting ear 2.

[0050] It should be further explained that, in the present embodiment, one lifting eye 2 is provided. When the lifting equipment reaches the lifting limit position, the object to be lifted is lowered, and then the position of the lifting eye 2 is moved and the object to be lifted is connected to the lifting eye 2 and the lifting is continued. Preferably, the lifting eye 2 can be provided in number, and several lifting eyes 2 are connected to several slots 1055 at the same time. When the lifting equipment reaches the lifting limit position, there is no need to move the lifting eye 2 again. It is only necessary to replace the lifting eye 2 with the object to be lifted for connection to achieve the change in lifting weight, which further improves the lifting efficiency. The replacement of the lifting eye 2 can be achieved using the electric hoist equipment at the construction site, and can be achieved at a certain height in the air without lowering the object to the ground, thereby improving work efficiency.

[0051] When using the adjustable sling of this embodiment, first, adjust the position of the lifting lug 2 on the sling cross arm 1 according to the distance between the two lifting equipment and the object to be lifted, and prepare for lifting; then, during the lifting process, when the lifting limit position of at least one lifting equipment is reached, lower the object to be lifted and adjust the position of the lifting lug 2 on the sling cross arm 1; finally, connect the object to the adjusted lifting lug 2 and continue lifting until the object is lifted to the predetermined installation position.

[0052] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described with reference to the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations shall fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
