[0030] In the following description, numerous specific details are provided to provide a more thorough understanding of the present invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention can be practiced without one or more of these details. In other instances, certain technical features known in the art are not described to avoid confusion with the present invention.

[0031] Unless otherwise defined, the directions of up, down, left, right, front, back, inside and outside involved in this document are based on the directions of up, down, left, right, front, back, inside and outside shown in the figures of the present invention, and are explained here together.

[0032] This embodiment provides Figures 1 to 4 A self-made transformer track installation auxiliary tool is shown, comprising: a track installation assembly 1, support rollers 6, a support shaft 5, a transformer track 7, and a lifting drive mechanism 9. After the on-site transformer installation project begins, construction workers often need to carry out secondary transport of the track on-site. However, since the track is made of steel and is relatively heavy, large equipment is usually required for rail transport. This tool is designed to help on-site construction workers quickly and easily transport the steel rail without relying on large machinery. After the U-shaped clamping rod assembly is clamped and slid onto the transformer track 7, the bottom end of the U-shaped clamping rod assembly is downwardly abutted against the track installation foundation according to the desired position, causing the two support rollers 6 to roll and frictionally abut against the inner top wall of the side recess 8. When the handrail 2 is pushed upward to lift it, the two support rollers 6 roll and frictionally contact the inner top wall of the side recess 8, causing the angle between the U-shaped clamping rod assembly and the foundation to become vertical, thereby lifting one side of the transformer track 7, facilitating the lifting and installation of the transformer track 7 and facilitating the movement of the transformer track 7. When the lifting drive mechanism 9 is used, it can replace manual hand-held lifting of the handrail 2. The operator only needs to operate the button, which saves labor and improves the laying efficiency.

[0033] In this embodiment, the track laying assembly 1 includes a handrail 2 and an inverted U-shaped clamping bar assembly fixed to the bottom end of the handrail 2. The handrail 2 provides the operator with a convenient grip, allowing the operator to control the movement or raising and lowering of the entire tool through the handrail 2, improving operational convenience. Two support rollers 6 are symmetrically arranged on either side of the interior of the U-shaped clamping bar assembly. The support rollers 6 are located within the support legs 4 and roll in contact with the inner top wall of the undercut 8 on the transformer track member 7, reducing friction during movement and making track laying easier and faster. Support shafts 5 are welded to the inner walls of the U-shaped clamping bar assembly on either side, and both support rollers 6 are rotatably mounted on the free ends of the support shafts 5. The support shafts 5 connect the support rollers 6 to the support legs 4, ensuring that the support rollers 6 can rotate freely around the support shafts 5, thereby reducing resistance during movement. The support shafts 5 are steel shafts, whose primary function is to provide mobility for the rails. The support legs 4 are made of steel and their primary function is to lift the transformer track member 7 off the ground.

[0034] In this embodiment, the transformer track member 7 is used for the installation support of the transformer. Both sides of the transformer track member 7 have side recesses 8. The two support shafts 5 are in rolling friction contact with the inner top walls of the two side recesses 8 respectively. The U-shaped clamping rod assembly is clamped and slidably connected to the required position on the transformer track member 7; the lifting drive mechanism 9 is erected across the transformer track member 7 and the top end drives the handrail 2 to move up and down away from one end of the U-shaped clamping rod assembly. The handrail 2 is made of solid steel and its main function is to enable construction workers to manipulate tools for construction. The handrail 2 should be made of high-strength material to ensure that it will not be damaged when it encounters collisions or is used for a long time during use. An anti-slip pad (not shown in the figure) should be provided at the control end of the handrail 2 to facilitate operation by construction workers.

[0035] In this embodiment, the U-shaped clamp assembly includes a support crossbar 3 welded to the bottom end of the handrail 2, and two legs 4 symmetrically welded to the bottom of the support crossbar 3. Two support shafts 5 are respectively welded to the inner walls of the two legs 4. The legs 4 are connected to the support crossbar 3. The support rollers 6 on the support shafts 5 contact the undercuts 8 on the transformer track 7, enabling smooth movement of the tool along the track and providing additional support when needed.

[0036] In this embodiment, the lifting drive mechanism 9 includes four supporting legs 10 distributed in a rectangular shape and a support platform 11 welded to the top of the four supporting legs 10. The four supporting legs 10 are arranged in groups of two and span across both sides of the transformer track member 7.

[0037] In this embodiment, a support base 12 is welded to the bottom end of each group of supporting legs 10 on both sides of the transformer track member 7 , and the support base 12 is supported and erected on the foundation on which the transformer track member 7 is laid.

[0038] In this embodiment, the lifting drive mechanism 9 also includes an electric lifting column 13 fixedly mounted in the middle of the top surface of the support platform 11, and a sleeve 14 hingedly connected to the upper portion of the electric lifting column 13. The sleeve 14 is mounted on the end of the handrail 2 that is away from the U-shaped clamping rod assembly. The sleeve 14 connects the handrail 2 to the electric lifting column 13 and, through its hinged connection with the T-shaped connecting rod 18, enables the vertical lifting of the handrail 2.

[0039] In this embodiment, a connecting base 17 is welded to the top of the electric lifting column 13 , an inverted T-shaped connecting rod 18 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the connecting base 17 , and the top end of the T-shaped connecting rod 18 is hinged to the sleeve 14 .

[0040] In this embodiment, two hinged lugs 19 are symmetrically welded to the outer wall of the sleeve 14. The end of the T-shaped connecting rod 18, remote from the connecting base 17, is hinged between the two hinged lugs 19 via a pin. The T-shaped connecting rod 18 articulates the sleeve 14 and the connecting base 17, allowing for a certain degree of angular variation to accommodate the raising and lowering of the handrail 2.

[0041] In this embodiment, a distribution box 16 is installed in the middle of the bottom surface of the support platform 11. The outer wall surface of the distribution box 16 has a control switch button. The distribution box 16 also has a PLC for controlling the opening and closing of the electric lifting column 13.

[0042] In this embodiment, handles 15 are welded to the outer walls of both sides of the support plate 11. When rail laying is required, this tool can rely on its portability and simplicity to help construction workers quickly lay rails. The supporting rolling element 6 can be a bearing or a roller, which can be selected according to the actual application.

[0043] Working principle:

[0044] To use this custom transformer track installation tool, first move the tool to the desired track installation location. At this point, the support base 12 is securely placed on the ground, ensuring the stability of the entire tool. The operator then grips the handrail 2 and, utilizing the rolling friction between the support roller 6 and the undercut 8 on the transformer track 7, slides the U-shaped clamping bar assembly along the track until it reaches the desired location for the transformer track 7.

[0045] When the U-shaped clamping rod assembly slides to the specified position, the supporting rolling member 6 will contact the inner top wall of the side recess 8 and maintain rolling friction contact, so that the angle between the U-shaped clamping rod assembly and the foundation tends to be vertical, preliminarily fixing the position of the transformer track member 7.

[0046] The operator activates the electric lifting column 13 using the control switch button on the distribution box 16. As the electric lifting column 13 extends, the sleeve 14 drives the handrail 2 upward, thereby raising the end of the handrail 2 away from the U-shaped clamping rod assembly. As the handrail 2 rises, the rolling friction between the supporting roller 6 and the undercut 8 gradually lifts one side of the transformer track 7. This process easily lifts the heavy transformer track 7 from the ground, reducing the difficulty and physical effort of manual operation.

[0047] When one side of the transformer track member 7 is lifted, the operator can gently push the handrail 2 and use the rolling friction between the supporting rolling member 6 and the side recess 8 to move the transformer track member 7 to a new position along the track direction.

[0048] After reaching the new position, the height of the electric lifting column 13 is adjusted by the control switch button on the distribution box 16, so that the transformer track member 7 slowly descends to the predetermined position until it is completely placed in place. The operator can manually adjust the position of the transformer track member 7 again to ensure that it is accurately aligned and meets the installation requirements.

[0049] After completing the installation of the transformer track member 7, the operator can restore the handrail 2 to its initial position, the electric lifting column 13 is retracted, and the entire tool returns to a ready state for next use.

[0050] It should be noted that, in this article, relational terms such as one and two are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Moreover, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device that includes a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. In the absence of further restrictions. The sentence "including an element defined by ... does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device that includes the element."

[0051] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
