Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of hoisting racks, in particular to a hoisting rack for replacing a crankshaft of a cargo ship. Background Art

[0002] During cargo ship operation, the crankshaft, a critical power transmission component, has a direct impact on the ship's smooth sailing. As a ship ages and experiences various complex operating conditions, the crankshaft may become worn and damaged, necessitating replacement. However, cargo ship crankshafts are typically large and heavy, requiring specialized lifting equipment for replacement. The crane for cargo ship crankshaft replacement was developed to address this need, providing crucial technical support for the safe and efficient replacement of cargo ship crankshafts.

[0003] The existing lifting frame for replacing the crankshaft of a cargo ship mainly includes a main frame, a lifting device connecting parts and a supporting part. It is mainly used to install a mobile lifting device, and plays a role in supporting and limiting the mobile lifting device to ensure that the mobile lifting device can slide smoothly in the cabin. The connection method between it and the top of the cabin is mainly through opening a threaded hole on the top of the lifting frame, and then matching the threaded hole of the lifting frame with the connecting seat installed on the top of the cabin. Finally, the connection is completed by passing the bolt through the connecting seat and fixing it with the threaded hole.

[0004] However, in actual use, the above-mentioned crane for replacing the crankshaft of a cargo ship will shake during the long-term transportation. This continuous shaking will cause the threaded holes on the crane to gradually wear out, and in severe cases, they will even be damaged. Once there is a problem with the threaded hole, it will affect the stability and safety of the crane. At this time, it is necessary to drill the threaded holes on the crane again or disassemble the crane for repositioning, which will undoubtedly make the subsequent maintenance of the crane very inconvenient. Therefore, it is urgently necessary to improve the existing crane for replacing the crankshaft of a cargo ship. Utility Model Content

[0030] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0031] The following describes an embodiment of the present invention based on its overall structure.

[0032] A lifting frame for replacing a cargo ship crankshaft, such as Figure 1 - Figure 6 As shown, it includes a frame 1 for supporting and limiting the lifting equipment;

[0033] The docking block 2 is detachably mounted on the frame body 1 in this embodiment. Since the frame body 1 has multiple groups of docking grooves 3 corresponding to the docking blocks 2 at the bottom, the docking block 2 is slidably connected to the frame body 1 through the docking grooves 3. When the docking block 2 needs to be removed, it can be directly taken out, which is convenient for replacing the docking block 2. Since the end of the docking block 2 is installed with a docking rod 4, and the top of the docking rod 4 is provided with a threaded hole 41 corresponding to the bolt, and the diameter of the docking rod 4 is smaller than the width of the docking block 2, when the frame body 1 needs to be installed in the cargo ship hold, the bolt is passed through the connecting seat installed on the top of the cabin, and then inserted into the threaded hole 41 at the top of the docking rod 4, and finally tightened, which will fix the connection between the docking block 2 and the frame body 1 and the connection between the frame body 1 and the cabin. At this time, the installation of the docking block 2 and the frame body 1 can be completed;

[0034] In this embodiment, multiple groups of docking rods 4 are symmetrically installed at the end of the docking block 2. At the same time, the number and position of the docking rods 4 correspond to the number and position of the bolts to be installed, so that when the frame 1 is connected to the connecting seat installed on the top of the cabin, there will be corresponding threaded holes 41 for installing the bolts. At the same time, the setting of multiple groups of docking rods 4 can effectively prevent the docking block 2 from changing its angle, thereby improving its stability during use and sliding.

[0035] For example, see Figure 1 - Figure 4 A docking hole 5 is provided at the top of the frame 1, which is connected to the docking groove 3. At the same time, the docking hole 5 and the docking groove 3 are matched to penetrate the frame 1. Because the docking hole 5 corresponds to the docking rod 4, each set of docking rods 4 can be smoothly connected to the frame 1 through the corresponding docking hole 5. At the same time, because the top of the docking hole 5 passes through the top of the frame 1, the top of the docking rod 4 will be in the same plane as the top of the frame 1, ensuring that the bolt can smoothly enter the threaded hole 41 at the end of the docking rod 4.

[0036] It should be noted that the top corners of the docking rod 4 in this embodiment are designed with bevels, so that when the docking rod 4 enters the docking groove 3, the bevel at the top of the docking rod 4 will guide itself, reducing the difficulty of its entry into the docking groove 3. Because the connection position between the docking groove 3 and the docking hole 5 and the top opening edge of the threaded hole 41 are both designed with bevels, the bevel of the docking groove 3 will further reduce the difficulty of the docking rod 4 entering the docking groove 3. At the same time, the bevel at the top of the threaded hole 41 will guide the bolt, reducing the difficulty of the bolt entering the threaded hole 41. At the same time, one-fifth of the threaded hole 41 is not threaded, and the position where the thread is not threaded is the inner wall of the opening position of the threaded hole 41, so that the bolt will be inserted into the threaded hole 41 first, and the threaded hole 41 will first restrict the bolt, making it easier to tighten the bolt later.

[0037] For example, when the internal thread of the threaded hole 41 is damaged, the bolt is removed, thereby releasing the connection between the docking block 2 and the frame 1. At this time, the docking block 2 will fall downward under the action of its own gravity, and the user can remove it for replacement. When the threaded hole 41 is damaged, the frame 1 can be maintained quickly and efficiently, effectively reducing the impact of the damage to the threaded hole 41 on the use of the frame 1.

[0038] It should be noted that the opening positions of the docking grooves 3 in this embodiment are all designed with arc-shaped rounded corners. When the docking block 2 enters the docking groove 3, the top corners of the docking block 2 are designed with beveled angles, so that the beveled angles at the top of the docking block 2 and the arc-shaped rounded corners of the opening of the docking groove 3 guide each other, effectively reducing the difficulty of the docking block 2 entering the docking groove 3.

[0039] This embodiment further installs a mounting seat 6 at the bottom of the frame 1, and slides a positioning block 7 in the mounting seat 6. At the same time, the top of the positioning block 7 is in contact with the bottom of the docking block 2 to limit the position of the docking block 2, so that after the docking block 2 enters the docking groove 3, the position will be pre-fixed, which is convenient for the user to install the bolts later and ensures that after the bolts are removed, the docking block 2 will not fall directly with the removal of the bolts, thereby improving safety when replacing the docking block 2.

[0040] In this embodiment, the mounting seat 6 and the positioning block 7 are arranged on the outside of each group of docking grooves 3, so that the docking blocks 2 in each group of docking grooves 3 will have corresponding positioning blocks 7 to restrict them, further ensuring the safety of the hanging frame during installation, use and subsequent positioning. At the same time, because the end of the positioning block 7 is away from the side corner of the docking block 2 and is designed with an oblique angle, when the docking block 2 is installed, it will squeeze the oblique angle of the positioning block 7, forcing the positioning block 7 to automatically enter the mounting seat 6.

[0041] In this embodiment, a driving mechanism for driving the positioning block 7 is also provided in the mounting seat 6;

[0042] In some examples, the driving mechanism includes a handle 71 slidably mounted on the side wall of the mounting base 6 , and the handle 71 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the positioning block 7 . When the user pulls the handle 71 , the positioning block 7 is driven to slide synchronously, ensuring that the positioning block 7 can smoothly obtain the power to slide.

[0043] Because the end of the positioning block 7 is installed with a spring 8 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting seat 6, the spring 8 is compressed when the positioning block 7 slides into the mounting seat 6. When the positioning block 7 loses its restriction, the spring 8 is released and pushes the positioning block 7 outward, so that after the docking block 2 is completely installed in the docking groove 3, the positioning block 7 automatically moves to a state of supporting the bottom of the docking block 2;

[0044] At the same time, a limiting groove 72 corresponding to the handle 71 is opened on the side wall of the mounting seat 6 to ensure that the handle 71 can slide smoothly and ensure the stability of the sliding of the handle 71.

[0045] Of course, in other examples, the driving mechanism may also be an electric push rod or other components. In this embodiment, the specific structure of the driving mechanism is not completely limited.

[0046] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: when the threaded hole 41 is worn and needs maintenance or damaged and affects the use and needs to be replaced, first, unscrew the bolt corresponding to the threaded hole 41, and then unscrew the bolts on all the docking rods 4 on the docking block 2 to release the connection between the docking block 2 and the bolts. At this time, pull the handle 71 to make the bottom of the docking block 2 lose its support, and then remove it for replacement;

[0047] Then, push the new docking block 2 and docking rod 4 into the frame 1 along the docking groove 3. During this process, the docking block 2 will squeeze the bevel of the positioning block 7, forcing it to slide in the direction of the spring 8, causing the spring 8 to be in a compressed state. When the docking block 2 is completely entered into the docking groove 3, the positioning block 7 will lose the restriction given by the docking block 2. At the same time, the spring 8 will push the positioning block 7 outward, causing the positioning block 7 to slide to the bottom of the docking block 2 and restrict it. At this time, the position of the docking block 2 is pre-fixed, and the user can reinstall the bolts. The whole operation is very convenient and simple, and can achieve efficient maintenance of the frame 1.
