Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cables, in particular to a windproof cable for a crane. Background Art

[0002] Cranes operating outdoors must be secured with windbreak cables when not in use or before strong winds arrive to prevent them from being blown over and toppling over. Windbreak cables, typically in the form of chains or wire ropes, are used to anchor the crane when not in use. For outdoor gantry cranes in coastal areas, strong winds often prevent chains and wire ropes from being strong enough, putting the crane at risk of being blown away and tipping over. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of the above-mentioned defects or deficiencies in the prior art, it is desired to provide a crane windproof cable that is easy to install and firmly fixed to ensure the safety of the crane.

[0005] A lower support is fixedly arranged on the ground;

[0006] An upper support, fixedly arranged on the end of the lower crossbeam of the jack;

[0007] A cable, one end of which is fixedly connected to a turnbuckle, an end of the turnbuckle away from the cable is fixedly connected to the lower support, and the other end of the cable passes through the upper support and is detachably fixedly connected to the lower support.

[0008] Furthermore, the lower support is pre-buried on the top of the concrete base, and the concrete base is buried underground.

[0009] Furthermore, the lower support includes a base plate embedded in the top of the concrete base, the top surface of the base plate is welded with a plurality of bolts, the seat plate is fixedly connected to the top surface of the base plate by the bolts, the top surface of the seat plate is welded with a first connecting plate and a second connecting plate, the first connecting plate is provided with a first connecting hole, the second connecting plate is provided with a second connecting hole, and a first reinforcing plate is welded between the first connecting plate and the second connecting plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the upper support includes two parallel frame plates, the two frame plates are welded to the ends of the lower cross beam, a connecting shaft is provided between the two frame plates, a circle of arc-shaped grooves is provided on the side wall of the connecting shaft along the circumferential direction, and a second reinforcing plate is welded between the two frame plates.

[0011] Furthermore, one end of the cable is connected to the basket bolt through a first cable head, and the end of the basket bolt away from the cable is connected to the lower support through a first shackle; the other end of the cable is fixedly connected to a second cable head, and the second cable head is connected to the lower support through a second shackle.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0023] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are intended only to illustrate the relevant utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the utility model. It should also be noted that, for ease of description, only the portions relevant to the utility model are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0024] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , an embodiment of the utility model provides a crane windproof cable, comprising:

[0026] The lower support 1 is fixed on the ground;

[0027] The upper support 2 is fixedly mounted on the end of the lower crossbeam 7 of the jack;

[0028] The cable 3 has one end fixedly connected to a turnbuckle 4, and the end of the turnbuckle 4 away from the cable 3 is fixedly connected to the lower support 1. The other end of the cable 3 passes through the upper support 2 and is detachably fixedly connected to the lower support 1.

[0029] In this embodiment, when the crane is stopped or before a strong wind arrives, the operator controls the crane to move to the windbreak cable. The cables 3 are then threaded through the upper support 2 one by one and fixedly connected to the lower support 1. The turnbuckles 4 are then rotated to tighten the cables 3. This prevents the crane's position from deviating, causing the cables 3 to miss the lower support 1 or become too loose, ensuring that the cables 3 effectively tighten the crane. Once the cables 3 are installed, each fixed point on the crane forms a double cable 3 connection, making installation easy and secure. This effectively improves the crane's ability to withstand strong winds and ensures crane safety.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, the lower support 1 is pre-buried on the top of the concrete base, and the concrete base is buried underground, which ensures the stability of the installation of the lower support 1.

[0031] In a preferred embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the lower support 1 includes a base plate 11 embedded in the top of the concrete base, and the top surface of the base plate 11 is welded with a plurality of bolts 12. The seat plate 13 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the base plate 11 by the bolts 12. The top surface of the seat plate 13 is welded with a first connecting plate 14 and a second connecting plate 15. The first connecting plate 14 is provided with a first connecting hole, and the second connecting plate 15 is provided with a second connecting hole. A first reinforcing plate 16 is welded between the first connecting plate 14 and the second connecting plate 15.

[0032] In this embodiment, one end of the cable 3 is connected to the first connecting plate 14 through a basket bolt 4, and the other end is detachably fixed to the second connecting plate 15. The lower support 1 has high structural strength, which facilitates the connection and fixation of the cable 3 and ensures a stable connection.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the upper support 2 includes two parallel frame plates 21, the two frame plates 21 are welded to the ends of the lower cross beam 7, a connecting shaft 22 is provided between the two frame plates 21, a circle of arc-shaped grooves 23 are provided on the side wall of the connecting shaft 22 along the circumferential direction, and a second reinforcing plate is welded between the two frame plates.

[0034] In this embodiment, the cable 3 passes through the connecting shaft 22 to tighten the crane. The cable 3 is embedded in the arcuate groove 23, making it difficult for the cable 3 to slide along the axial direction of the connecting shaft 22, thereby improving the stability of the cable 3 connection. The upper support 2 is welded to the end of the lower crossbeam 7, providing high structural strength and a secure connection.

[0035] In a preferred embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, one end of the cable 3 is connected to the basket bolt 4 through the first cable head 31, and the end of the basket bolt 4 away from the cable 3 is connected to the lower support 1 through the first shackle 5; the other end of the cable 3 is fixedly connected to the second cable head 32, and the second cable head 32 is connected to the lower support 1 through the second shackle 6.

[0036] In this embodiment, a cable head is provided at the end of the cable 3 to ensure its connection strength; the provision of the first shackle 5 and the second shackle 6 makes the connection of the cable 3 convenient and firm, and improves the convenience of the installation of the windproof cable.
