[0002] The ship unloader is a specialized equipment used for dock loading and unloading operations. During storm anchoring, maintenance operations, and ship clearance, the front beam of the ship unloader needs to be tilted upward and securely fixed.
[0003] Currently, most safety hook devices used in ship unloaders on the market utilize electric mechanisms such as power support rods or jacks to lift the safety hooks. However, due to installation precision deviations or other manufacturing process issues, the safety hooks on the market cannot be stopped in time during the lowering process, or the front beam cannot be slowed down and stopped in time during the movement and lifting process. This causes the front beam of the ship unloader to be over-lifted and partially deformed, affecting its performance. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In order to solve the problem that the safety hook cannot stop in time during the falling process, or the front beam cannot slow down and stop in time during the moving and lifting process, resulting in the front beam of the ship unloader being over-pulled up and causing local deformation thereof, the utility model provides a safety hook device for the ship unloader. Through the cooperation of the power device, the front beam movement limiting assembly, the safety hook lifting limiting assembly and the safety hook falling limiting assembly, the safety hook moves with the front beam during the lifting and falling process of the front beam, thereby preventing the front beam of the ship unloader from being over-stretched and causing local deformation.
[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present utility model is:

In this embodiment, there are two pull plates 9, and a pin is provided on the safety hook. One end of each pull plate 9 with a slide groove is slidably connected to the pin of the safety hook 7, and the other end of the pull plate 9 is fixedly connected to the slider 12.
[0026] A safety hook lifting limit assembly is provided on the top of the tower safety hook support 13, and the safety hook lifting limit assembly includes a limit switch five 11. The limit switch five 11 is fixed to the top of the tower safety hook support 13, and the slider 12 can contact the limit switch five 11 after being pushed by the hydraulic pusher 10.
[0027] The safety hook 7 is also provided with a safety hook drop limit assembly; the safety hook drop limit assembly includes a limit switch four 6 and a limit bracket two 5, the limit switch four 6 is fixed to the top of the safety hook 7, and the limit bracket two 5 is fixed to the upper part of the front beam connecting frame 14, and the limit switch four 6 can contact the limit bracket two 5 after the safety hook 7 rotates.
[0028] In order to further improve the safety hook 7 to stop in time before touching the front beam connecting frame 14 when falling, a safety hook movement limiter is also provided on the tower safety hook support 13, and the safety hook movement limiter includes a limit switch 3 4. The limit switch 3 4 is fixed on the tower safety hook support 13. The safety hook 7 is an integrally formed hook structure as a whole, and a protrusion is provided on the outside of the rotating connection of the safety hook 7; the limit switch 3 4 is in contact with the protrusion of the safety hook 7.
[0029] The front beam connecting frame 14 is provided with a front beam motion limit assembly, including a limit bracket 1, a limit switch 2 and a limit switch 3.
