AI Technical Summary
The accumulator capacity of existing diesel monorail crane locomotives is insufficient, resulting in slow brake opening speed, rapid clamping pressure drop, difficulty in starting on slopes, posing a safety hazard, and manual pressure replenishment is required before the vehicle can be started again after the engine is turned off.
An independently controlled second accumulator is added next to the original first accumulator and connected to the hydraulic control part in parallel. After the locomotive is shut down, the second accumulator can be used to start the vehicle once, thereby improving the brake opening speed and clamping pressure stability.
The safety performance and utilization efficiency of the monorail crane locomotive are improved, the risk of slipping is reduced, and the damage frequency of the accumulator auxiliary pump and the damage probability of the engine power take-off port support are reduced.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to an energy storage device for a diesel monorail crane locomotive, belonging to the technical field of coal mine transportation equipment. Background Art
[0002] A certain mine has a designed production capacity of 4 million tons per year. The mine operates on a large scale, with numerous mining faces and segmented mining operations. Manual or rail-based material transportation is labor-intensive, and the use of winches presents significant risks during operation, making them highly susceptible to workplace accidents. Since the mine introduced its first monorail crane in 2017, which began trial operation in Mining Area 15, it has gradually expanded its use throughout the mine. By December 2023, the mine had 14 monorail cranes operating underground, essentially covering all its work locations and eliminating the traditional rail-based transportation model. The adoption of monorail cranes has reduced employee workload and improved transportation efficiency.
[0003] In 2018, a certain mine began to introduce Baker diesel monorail crane locomotives for use. During use, it was found that the capacity of the accumulator used in the hydraulic control part of the locomotive was smaller than that of the Scharf locomotive, XCMG locomotive, and Ferntree locomotive, and the pressure replenishment speed was slow, which had a great impact on the locomotive brake opening pressure and the drive wheel clamping pressure. As a result, the monorail crane locomotive brake opening speed was slow, the clamping pressure dropped rapidly, and starting on a slope easily caused the locomotive to slip, making starting difficult and posing a major safety hazard. After the locomotive was shut down, it could only be started once. If the start failed, the accumulator had to be manually re-pressurized before it could be started again. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide an energy storage device for a diesel monorail crane locomotive to solve the technical problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a diesel monorail crane locomotive energy storage device, including a first accumulator and a controller, the first accumulator is electrically connected to the controller, and also includes a second accumulator, the liquid inlet of the second accumulator is connected in parallel with the liquid inlet of the first accumulator, and the second accumulator is also electrically connected to the controller.
[0006] Preferably, the first accumulator and the second accumulator are both hydraulic accumulators.
[0007] Preferably, the first accumulator and the second accumulator are both bladder-type hydraulic accumulators.
[0008] Beneficial effects of the utility model:
[0009] 1. Compared with the prior art, the present invention adds an independently controlled second accumulator next to the original first accumulator, which is connected in parallel to the hydraulic control part. After the locomotive is turned off, if the engine fails to start, the second accumulator can be used to start the locomotive again without manually replenishing the pressure in the accumulator. When the locomotive starts on a slope, the additional energy storage device accelerates the opening speed of the locomotive brake, slows the drop in clamping pressure, and makes the start smoother, reducing the safety hazard of the locomotive slipping when starting on a slope, and effectively improving the safety performance and utilization efficiency of the monorail crane locomotive.
[0010] 2. After adding the second accumulator, the control pressure of the monorail crane locomotive became more stable and the frequency of damage to the accumulator auxiliary pump was reduced. Before the transformation, the accumulator auxiliary pump was replaced every three months, with a value of 13,044 yuan per unit. After the transformation, it was not replaced for half a year. Before the transformation, the engine power take-off port support was easily damaged after the accumulator auxiliary pump was damaged. The power take-off port support was valued at 23,750 yuan per piece. After the transformation, the power take-off port support was not damaged for half a year. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
