Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of gantry cranes, in particular to a gantry crane. Background Art
[0002] A gantry crane, also known as a gantry crane, is a type of lifting equipment that operates on ground tracks. Currently, the installation and disassembly of gantry cranes often involves hoisting components one by one using large cranes. After the metal structural components are installed, the functional equipment is then installed at high altitude. This method is inefficient, highly dangerous, and uneconomical.
[0003] During installation, existing gantry cranes must first hoist the main beam 100 into the air before docking the outriggers 300 on either side of the main beam 100. This requires two cranes to balance the main beam 100, and one or two more cranes to hoist the outriggers 300 for on-site docking. This not only requires a large on-site installation space, but also reduces installation efficiency and poses a high safety risk during docking. Utility Model Content
[0004] In order to solve the current technical problems, the main purpose of the present invention is to provide a gantry crane, which includes two states. In the first state, the support legs are first hinged and installed on the lifting main beam. In the second state, when the lifting main beam is lifted or hoisted, the support legs on both sides are naturally retracted as the lifting main beam is lifted. After the lifting main beam is lifted into place, the upper ends of the support legs and the lifting main beam automatically form a docking state, and then the support legs are connected and fixed to the bottom beam by welding or bolting. Only the lifting main beam needs to be lifted to complete the installation of the gantry crane's lifting main beam and the support legs, which reduces the on-site installation space, and the support legs and the bottom beam are automatically aligned, thereby improving the installation efficiency and reducing the safety risks during installation.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a gantry crane, including a lifting main beam, a traveling wheel seat, supporting legs and a cross beam, the supporting legs are connected and supported between the lifting main beam and the traveling wheel seat, the traveling wheel seat is used to move on the track, the bottom of each end of the lifting main beam is respectively installed with a bottom beam, the bottom beam is located on both sides of the lifting main beam and is respectively provided with supporting legs, and the lower ends of the supporting legs are hinged to the traveling wheel seat;
[0006] The gantry crane includes two states. In the first state, the upper end of the support leg is hinged to the bottom beam, and in the second state, the upper end of the support leg is fixedly connected to the bottom beam.

[0032] See also Figure 1-3 As shown, a gantry crane includes a lifting main beam 100, a traveling wheel seat 200, a support leg 300 and a crossbeam 400, the support leg 300 is connected and supported between the lifting main beam 100 and the traveling wheel seat 200, the traveling wheel seat 200 is used to move on the track 500, and bottom beams 110 are respectively installed at the bottom of both ends of the lifting main beam 100, and the bottom beams 110 are located on both sides of the lifting main beam 100 and support legs 300 are respectively provided, and the lower ends of the support legs 300 are hinged to the traveling wheel seat 200; the gantry crane includes two states, in the first state, the upper ends of the support legs 300 are hinged to the bottom beam 110, and in the second state, the upper ends of the support legs 300 are fixedly connected to the bottom beam 110; the crossbeam 400 is used to be installed between the two support legs 300 on each side in the second state.
[0033] In the prior art, the lifting main beam 100 is used to install the lifting winch equipment, the support legs 300 are used to support the lifting main beam 100 to a certain height, the walking wheel seat 200 is used to drive the gantry crane to move on the track 500, and the crossbeam 400 is used to connect the support legs 300 on both sides to improve the stability of the gantry crane.
[0034] In this application, the gantry crane includes two states. In the first state, see Figure 1 , first hinge the upper end of the support leg 300 to the lifting main beam, and the walking wheel seat 200 is also hinged to the lower end of the support leg 300; in the second state, see Figure 3When the main crane 100 is lifted or hoisted by a lift or crane, the outriggers 300 on both sides naturally retract as the main crane beam 100 is lifted. After the main crane beam 100 is lifted into place, the upper ends of the outriggers 300 automatically form a docking state with the bottom beam 110 on the lower side of the main crane beam 100. Then, the outriggers 300 are connected and fixed to the bottom beam 110 by welding or bolting. When installing the gantry crane of the present application, only the main crane beam 100 needs to be lifted to complete the installation and connection of the main crane beam and the outriggers, which reduces the on-site installation space. The outriggers 300 and the bottom beam 110 are automatically aligned, which improves the installation efficiency and reduces the safety risks during installation.
[0035] After the supporting legs 300 are connected and fixed to the bottom beam 110 , the cross beam 400 is lifted by a hoist and connected between the supporting legs 300 on both sides.
[0036] For details, see Figure 1 A first hinge seat 111 is provided at both ends of the bottom beam 110, and a second hinge seat 301 is provided at the upper end of the support leg 300 and on the side away from the lifting main beam 100. The first hinge seat 111 and the second hinge seat 301 are hinged by a pin shaft.
[0037] See also Figure 3 In the second state, the upper end of the support leg 300 and the bottom beam 110 can be welded and fixed.
[0038] See also Figure 3 In the second state, the upper end of the support leg 300 and the bottom beam 110 can be connected and fixed by bolts 120.
[0039] When connected and fixed by bolts 120, the lower side of the bottom beam 110 is fixed with a first flange 112 at the position corresponding to the support leg 300, and the upper end of the support leg 300 is fixed with a second flange 303. In the second state, see Figure 3 The first flange 112 and the second flange 303 are connected and fixed by bolts 120.

[0042] In the second state, the cross beam 400 is fixed to the legs 300 by welding or bolting. When bolting is adopted, flange plates can be welded to the inner side of the legs 300 and the two ends of the cross beam 400 respectively, and the flange plates are bolted together.
[0043] The working principle or action process of the utility model is as follows:
[0044] See also Figure 1 In the first state, the travel wheel seat 200 is first supported and positioned on the track 500. A crossbeam 400 is then placed between the two travel wheel seats 200 on each side of the track 500. One end of the support leg 300 is hinged to the travel wheel seat 200. The main lifting beam 100 is then hoisted between the two support legs 300 and hinged to the bottom beam 110 on the lower side of the main lifting beam 100. This completes the installation of the equipment on the main lifting beam 100.
[0045] See also Figure 3 In the second state, the main crane 100 is lifted or hoisted using a hoist or crane. The outriggers 300 on both sides naturally retract as the main crane beam 100 rises. The crossbeam 400 may be removed based on the site conditions. After the main crane beam 100 is lifted into position, the upper ends of the outriggers 300 automatically mate with the bottom beam 110 on the underside of the main crane beam 100. The outriggers 300 are then bolted to the bottom beam 110. A hoist is then suspended below the main crane beam 100 to lift the crossbeam 400 and connect it between the outriggers 300 on both sides.
