Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pipe pile transportation technology, specifically a safety rope connector for pipe pile transportation. Background Technology
[0002] Pipe pile transportation is a complex process involving multiple stages and factors, mainly including transportation mode, selection of transportation vehicles, loading and securing, and transportation route planning. When loading pipe piles, it is necessary to ensure that they do not roll, slip, or tip over during transportation.
[0003] 1. Secure the pipe piles to the transport vehicle using specialized clamps to ensure their stability during transport; 2. Place wooden blocks and wedges between the pipe piles and the transport vehicle to reduce friction and vibration; 3. Securely tie the pipe piles to the transport vehicle using wire ropes or safety ropes to prevent movement during transport.
[0004] Safety rope couplings for pipe pile transportation are crucial components designed to provide safety during the transport of heavy materials such as pipe piles. A specially designed connection device, the safety rope coupling secures heavy materials like pipe piles to the transport vehicle or equipment via a safety rope, preventing slippage, tilting, or falling during transport and ensuring the safety and stability of the transportation process.
[0005] In the transportation of pipe piles, safety rope connectors are needed to secure both ends of the safety rope. Existing safety rope connectors typically use threaded or snap-fit connections. While threaded connections are relatively secure, the safety rope connector is prone to detachment due to friction and rotation during vehicle movement. Snap-fit connections are obviously not as secure as threaded connections, but they are less likely to detach. Therefore, this combination can easily create safety hazards and fails to meet production requirements. Thus, a new safety rope connector for pipe pile transportation is proposed to address the aforementioned problems. Utility Model Content
[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a safety rope connector for transporting pipe piles, which has the advantages of threaded snap-fit connection. This solves the problem that while threaded connections are relatively strong, the safety rope connector is prone to falling off during vehicle operation due to friction and rotation. Snap-fit connections are obviously not as strong as threaded connections, but they are less likely to fall off. In summary, both of these methods can easily cause safety hazards and fail to meet production requirements.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a safety rope connector for transporting pipe piles, comprising an installation sleeve and an insertion cylinder disposed at the top of the installation sleeve and extending into it, wherein a safety rope body is provided at both ends of the installation sleeve and the insertion cylinder, and an elastic fixing structure extending to the outside of the installation sleeve is provided inside the insertion cylinder.
[0008] The elastic fixing structure includes a first spring fixedly connected inside the insertion cylinder. An elastic locking block extending to one side of the mounting sleeve is fixedly connected to one end of the first spring near the mounting sleeve. Two second springs are fixedly connected to one side of the mounting sleeve, and a pressing plate is fixedly connected to one end of the second spring away from the mounting sleeve.
[0009] Furthermore, there are four first springs, which are symmetrically distributed inside the insertion cylinder, and the outer surface of the mounting sleeve is provided with a locking hole that matches the elastic locking block.
[0010] Furthermore, each pair of elastic blocks is located between two second springs, and the height of the pressing plate is greater than the distance between the two second springs.
[0011] Furthermore, a positioning rod extending into the insertion cylinder is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the mounting sleeve, and a positioning groove adapted to the positioning rod is provided inside the insertion cylinder.
[0012] Furthermore, threaded grooves are provided on opposite sides of the mounting sleeve and the insertion cylinder, and the mounting sleeve and the insertion cylinder are connected by a threaded connection. The threaded groove on the surface of the insertion cylinder is located on the side away from the elastic block.
[0013] Furthermore, a first limiting plate is fixedly connected to one end of the safety rope body near the mounting sleeve, and a second limiting plate is provided inside the mounting sleeve. A connecting block is fixedly connected between the second limiting plate and the first limiting plate.
[0014] Furthermore, there are two of each of the first and second limiting plates, with one of the second limiting plates located inside the insertion tube.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a safety rope connector for transporting pipe piles, which has the following advantages:
[0016] 1. The safety rope connector for pipe pile transportation is equipped with a first spring and an elastic locking block. When the insertion cylinder is inserted into the installation sleeve, the installation sleeve will compress the elastic locking block. Then, through the locking hole, the elastic locking block will pop out due to the action of the first spring, thereby fixing the insertion cylinder. Then, by setting a second spring and a pressing plate, the operator only needs to press the pressing plate to press both elastic locking blocks at the same time, which facilitates the disassembly of the insertion cylinder. At the same time, since the installation sleeve and the insertion cylinder are threadedly connected, a double fixing effect of buckle and thread can be achieved, which greatly improves the stability of the installation rope connector.
[0017] 2. The safety rope connector for transporting pipe piles, by setting a first limiting plate and a second limiting plate, and by setting a connecting block, can improve the fixing effect of the safety rope body on the one hand, and prevent the safety rope body from rotating when rotating the installation sleeve, thereby reducing wear on the safety rope body and increasing its service life. It solves the problem that the commonly used threaded or snap-fit connections are not as secure as threaded connections, but the safety rope connector is prone to falling off during vehicle operation due to friction and rotation. Snap-fit connections are obviously not as secure as threaded connections, but they are less likely to fall off than threaded connections. In summary, they are prone to safety hazards and cannot meet production requirements. Attached Figure Description

[0022] 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. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 3This embodiment of a safety rope connector for transporting pipe piles includes an installation sleeve 1 and an insertion cylinder 2 disposed on the top of the installation sleeve 1 and extending into it. Safety rope bodies 3 are provided at both ends of the installation sleeve 1 and the insertion cylinder 2. An elastic fixing structure extending to the outside of the installation sleeve 1 is provided inside the insertion cylinder 2. The elastic fixing structure includes a first spring 4 fixedly connected to the inside of the insertion cylinder 2. An elastic locking block 5 extending to one side of the installation sleeve 1 is fixedly connected to one end of the first spring 4 near the installation sleeve 1. Two second springs 6 are fixedly connected to one side of the installation sleeve 1. A pressing plate 7 is fixedly connected to the end of the second spring 6 away from the installation sleeve 1.
[0024] There are four first springs 4, which are symmetrically distributed inside the insertion cylinder 2. The outer surface of the mounting sleeve 1 is provided with a locking hole 8 that matches the elastic locking block 5. Every two elastic locking blocks 5 are located between two second springs 6. The height of the pressing plate 7 is greater than the distance between the two second springs 6.
[0025] It should be noted that there are two pressing plates 7, which are symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the mounting sleeve 1. By setting the first spring 4 and the elastic block 5, when the insertion cylinder 2 is inserted into the mounting sleeve 1, the mounting sleeve 1 will squeeze the elastic block 5. Then, by setting the locking hole 8, the elastic block 5 will pop out due to the action of the first spring 4, thereby completing the fixation of the insertion cylinder 2.
[0026] In this embodiment, a positioning rod 9 extending into the insertion cylinder 2 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the mounting sleeve 1. A positioning groove 10 adapted to the positioning rod 9 is provided inside the insertion cylinder 2. By setting the positioning rod 9 and the positioning groove 10, the insertion cylinder 2 can be positioned, thereby improving the stability of the device.
[0027] In this embodiment, threaded grooves 11 are provided on the opposite sides of the mounting sleeve 1 and the insertion cylinder 2. The mounting sleeve 1 and the insertion cylinder 2 are connected by a threaded connection. The threaded grooves 11 on the surface of the insertion cylinder 2 are located on the side away from the elastic locking block 5.
[0028] It should be noted that when the installation sleeve 1 and the insertion sleeve 2 are fully threaded, the locking hole 8 is aligned with the elastic locking block 5, thereby achieving a simultaneous connection and fixation of the locking and thread, which improves the overall strength of the device.
[0029] In this embodiment, a first limiting plate 12 is fixedly connected to one end of the safety rope body 3 near the mounting sleeve 1, and a second limiting plate 13 is provided inside the mounting sleeve 1. A connecting block 14 is fixedly connected between the second limiting plate 13 and the first limiting plate 12. There are two first limiting plates 12 and two limiting plates 13, and one of the second limiting plates 13 is located inside the insertion tube 2.
[0030] The mounting sleeve 1 and the insertion sleeve 2 are provided with movable grooves that are adapted to the connecting block 14. By setting the first limiting plate 12 and the second limiting plate 13, and by setting the connecting block 14, the fixing effect of the safety rope body 3 can be improved. On the other hand, when the mounting sleeve 1 is rotated, the safety rope body 3 is prevented from rotating, thus reducing the wear on the safety rope body 3 and improving its service life.
[0031] The working principle of the above embodiments is as follows:
[0032] First, the workers use the safety rope body 3 to fix the pipe pile. Then, the insertion cylinder 2 is inserted into the installation sleeve 1. The installation sleeve 1 will squeeze the elastic block 5. Then, through the setting of the locking hole 8, the elastic block 5 will pop out due to the action of the first spring 4, thereby completing the fixation of the insertion cylinder 2. While inserting the insertion cylinder 2, the installation sleeve 1 is rotated so that the installation sleeve 1 can be threadedly connected to the insertion cylinder 2. When the installation sleeve 1 and the insertion cylinder 2 are threadedly connected, the elastic block 5 will pop out at the same time. At this time, the entire safety rope joint installation is completed.
