[0003] Most cast iron gates and steel gates are opened and closed by screw gate opening and closing machines. During the opening and closing process, if something gets stuck at the bottom of the gate and the gate cannot be lowered during the closing process, the screw will be under constant downward pressure, which will eventually cause the screw to bend. The bending cannot be restored, resulting in the gate being unable to be opened and closed, which greatly affects the scheduling of channel water resources. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a protective device to prevent the screw from bending, so as to solve the problem mentioned in the background technology that foreign matter blocks the bottom of the gate, causing the gate to be unable to descend during the closing process, and the downward pressure will cause the screw to bend and cannot be restored, resulting in the gate being unable to open and close.

[0025] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment discloses a protective device for preventing screw rod bending, comprising an upper connecting sleeve 1, an inner sleeve 2 disposed within the upper connecting sleeve 1, and sleeved around the outer side of an upper screw rod 3. A retaining pin 3-1 is disposed at the bottom of the inner sleeve 2 and is received within the retaining pin 3-1. The lower portion of the upper connecting sleeve 1 is fixedly connected to a lower connecting sleeve 4 via a bolt assembly 7. A pressure spring 4-1 is disposed within the lower connecting sleeve 4, the upper end of which tightly contacts the upper screw rod 3, while the lower end of the pressure spring 4-1 tightly contacts the lower connecting sleeve 4. The bottom of the lower connecting sleeve 4 is fixedly connected to a lower polished rod 5.

[0027] In this embodiment, a backing plate 6 is provided at the bottom of the upper screw rod 3, which abuts against the pressure spring 4-1. The backing plate 6 increases the contact area between the pressure spring 4-1 and the upper screw rod 3, ensuring a stable pressure contact between the pressure spring 4-1 and the upper screw rod 3. When the fixing pin 3-1 of the upper screw rod 3 is released from the retaining groove 2-1, the upper screw rod 3, with the aid of the backing plate 6, can compress the pressure spring 4-1.

[0028] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the inner sleeve 2 is provided with a top screw chute 2-2, the upper connecting sleeve 1 is provided with a top screw hole 1-1 corresponding to the top screw chute 2-2, and a top screw 2-3 is provided in the top screw hole 1-1. The top screw 2-3 is slidably matched with the top screw chute 2-2.

[0029] The sliding fit between the top screw groove 2-2 and the top screw 2-3 allows the inner sleeve 2 to move only in the vertical direction within the upper connecting sleeve 1. An annular boss 1-3 is provided on the inner sidewall of the top end of the upper connecting sleeve 1. A plurality of pressure adjustment bolts 2-4 are threadedly connected to the annular boss 1-3. The lower ends of the pressure adjustment bolts 2-4 abut against the inner sleeve 2. Adjusting the pressure adjustment bolts 2-4 can tighten the inner sleeve 2.

[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, a partition 4-2 is provided on the lower connecting sleeve 4. A cavity is provided in the lower connecting sleeve 4. The cavity above the partition 4-2 is the upper cavity 4-3, and the cavity below the partition 4-2 is the lower cavity 4-4. A pressure spring 4-1 is provided in the upper cavity 4-3, and the pressure spring 4-1 is in close contact with the partition 4-2.

[0031] The lower cavity 4-4 is fixedly connected to the lower polished rod 5. The lower polished rod 5 is connected to the lower connecting sleeve 4 via a polished rod connecting pin 5-3. Specifically, the connecting end of the lower polished rod 5 is provided with a through-going fixing hole 5-1. The side wall of the lower cavity 4-4 is provided with a docking hole 5-2 that cooperates with the fixing hole 5-1. The fixing holes 5-1 and the docking holes 5-2 are provided with a through-going polished rod connecting pin 5-3. The polished rod connecting pin 5-3 passes through the fixing holes 5-1 and the docking holes 5-2 to connect the lower cavity 4-4 to the lower polished rod 5. One end of the polished rod connecting pin 5-3 is provided with a cotter pin 5-4 to prevent the polished rod connecting pin 5-3 from falling out.

[0032] In this embodiment, a locking bolt 1-2 is provided at the bottom of the upper connecting sleeve 1. The locking bolt 1-2 is located below the inner sleeve 2. The locking bolt 1-2 is tightly fitted with the upper screw rod 3. When the fixing pin 3-1 of the upper screw rod 3 is out of the slot 2-1 and the upper screw rod 3 rotates relative to the upper connecting sleeve 1, the locking bolt 1-2 can be tightened to tighten the upper screw rod 3 to prevent the upper screw rod 3 from rotating relative to the upper connecting sleeve 1.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the working principle of the utility model is as follows:

[0034] When the gate needs to be closed, the upper end of the pressure spring 4-1 presses against the upper screw 3 through the pad 6, and the lower end of the pressure spring 4-1 rests on the lower connecting sleeve 4. The fixing pin 3-1 of the upper screw 3 is clamped in the clamping groove 2-1. Due to the clamping effect of the clamping groove 2-1 on the fixing pin 3-1, the upper screw 3 can be prevented from rotating. After the gate opening machine is started, the upper screw 3 can be driven downward normally to release the gate.

[0035] When the gate is blocked by foreign objects and cannot be closed, the lower connecting sleeve 4 and the lower polished rod 5 cannot move downward. At this time, the upper screw 3 continues to move downward under the action of the gate hoist. The upper screw 3 compresses the pressure spring 4-1 downward through the pad 6 until the fixing pin 3-1 is disengaged from the slot 2-1. The upper screw 3 will then idle in the upper connecting sleeve 1. At this time, the gate hoist cannot drive the upper screw 3 to move downward, thereby avoiding overload and bending of the upper screw 3.

[0036] It should be noted that when an emergency occurs, the locking bolts 1-2 can be tightened to lock the upper screw rod 3 so that it no longer rotates, thereby releasing the anti-bending function, increasing the downward pressure of the upper screw rod 3, and forcing the lower connecting sleeve 4 and the lower polished rod 5 downward to close the gate.

[0037] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements to the technical solutions of the present invention made by ordinary technicians in this field should fall within the scope of protection determined by the claims of the present invention.
