Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field related to lithium battery monorail cranes for mining, in particular to a quick-change flameproof lithium battery device for monorail cranes and the monorail crane. Background Art
[0002] The intelligent explosion-proof lithium battery monorail crane is a type of underground auxiliary transportation equipment for coal mines. It uses a lithium iron phosphate battery specifically designed for coal mines as its power source. This dual-circuit system supplies power to an explosion-proof variable-frequency motor with a planetary reducer, which in turn drives the friction wheels. It primarily consists of a cab, drive unit, electro-hydraulic control vehicle, lithium battery vehicle, and lifting beam. It overcomes the safety, efficiency, pollution, and maintenance challenges of diesel monorail cranes, becoming a safe, reliable, efficient, maintenance-friendly, and pollution-free underground auxiliary transportation device. It not only transports materials, personnel, and equipment, but also facilitates the lifting and hoisting of underground equipment.
[0003] Traditional explosion-proof lithium battery monorail cranes use ordinary explosion-proof connectors for all equipment input and output lines of the battery device. Disassembly of the battery system requires opening the explosion-proof box, which leads to problems such as multiple processes, high requirements, and complex disassembly. In addition, the conventional configuration has large battery capacity and long charging time, resulting in low vehicle utilization. A quick-change explosion-proof lithium battery device is needed to solve the above problems.
[0004] Chinese utility model application number CN2012204297973 discloses a lithium-ion battery-powered monorail crane, comprising a track and a hanging device, as well as a lithium-ion battery power box, a traction device, and a lifting device mounted thereon. The lithium-ion battery power box is connected to the traction device, which is in turn connected to the lifting device. The lifting device comprises a lithium-ion battery electric hoist, a load beam, and a loading vehicle. Two lithium-ion battery electric hoists are mounted at both ends of the load beam, and the load beam is mounted at both ends of the loading vehicle. Two loading vehicles are provided, mounted on the track and hanging device. This technical solution is a mobile, flexible, low-cost lithium-ion battery-powered monorail crane with a long transport distance, no sparks, and easy explosion-proof. However, this technical solution lacks a quick-change explosion-proof structure, making it impossible to quickly replace the monorail crane battery. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a quick-change explosion-proof lithium battery device for monorail crane locomotives. Utility Model Content

[0033] The utility model provides the following technical solutions: a quick-change explosion-proof lithium battery device for monorail crane locomotive, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, it includes a standard battery box group 1, a main control box 2 and a hanging frame 3.

[0035] The explosion-proof emergency stop button 4 of the standard battery box 1 is used to control the emergency shutdown of a single battery box.
[0036] The main control box 2 is provided with a power supply explosion-proof quick connector 6, a signal explosion-proof quick connector 7, a charging explosion-proof quick connector 8, a main control box explosion-proof emergency stop button 9 and ordinary explosion-proof connectors 13 and 15.
[0037] The main control box 2 is designed with six ordinary power supply explosion-proof connectors 13 and six ordinary signal explosion-proof connectors 15, so the number of battery boxes that can be connected is 1 to 6. If there are unused ordinary explosion-proof connectors, they need to be sealed with matching plugs to meet explosion-proof requirements.
[0038] The power supply explosion-proof quick connector 6 and the communication explosion-proof quick connector 7 are used to connect the corresponding cables of the electro-hydraulic control vehicle.

Circulating water through the internal flow channel 23 of the heat dissipation structure 22 removes heat generated by excessive current in the connector, thereby resolving problems associated with using quick connectors and ensuring application safety. All power explosion-proof quick connectors are designed with a mechanical locking mechanism 24.
[0043] like Figure 4 As shown, the water inlet 25 of the liquid cooling and heat dissipation structure 22 is connected to the circulating water pump, and the water outlet 26 is connected to the water outlet pipe, forming a circulating water system.
[0044] In the utility model, the master control box is specially used for the battery power supply of the monorail crane locomotive and serves as the master control part of multiple battery boxes for coordinating the charge and discharge control of the battery power supply.
