[0053] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model provides a hook anti-detachment device, including a mounting base fixedly connected to the ear plate 8, a connecting shaft 10 connected between the two ear plates 8, and through holes 9 on both ear plates 8. The through holes 9 are located below the connecting shaft 10. A limiting member is detachably connected to the mounting base. The limiting member is adapted to the through hole 9, and the limiting member is parallel to the connecting shaft 10. The limiting member is in frictional contact with the hook 7.

[0054] The fixed seat allows the limiting component to be detachably connected to the two ear plates 8. The limiting component passes through the two ear plates 8, thereby limiting the vertical position of the hook 7 and preventing the hook 7 from separating from the connecting shaft 10, thus effectively preventing disengagement.

[0055] Furthermore, the mounting base includes a cover 1, which is fixedly attached to an ear plate 8. A through hole 11 is provided on the cover 1, which is coaxially arranged with the through hole 9. An annular groove 3 is provided on the side of the cover 1 near the ear plate 8. The annular groove 3 communicates with the through hole 11, and the diameter of the through hole 11 is smaller than the outer diameter of the annular groove 3. The annular groove 3 and the ear plate 8 enclose an open receiving cavity, and the limiting member is slidably limited in the receiving cavity.

[0056] In this embodiment, the side of the cover 1 with the annular groove 3 is attached to the ear plate 8, and the axes of the through hole 11 and the through hole 9 are collinear. The cover 1 and the ear plate 8 are then firmly connected by welding.

[0057] The limiter slides within the open cavity, allowing for detachable connection between the limiter and the cover 1. This facilitates control over the engagement or disengagement of the hook 7 and the connecting shaft 10, enabling rapid switching between the locked and unlocked states of the hook 7.

[0058] Furthermore, the limiting component includes a locking pin 4, a limiting block is provided on the outer wall of one end of the locking pin 4, and a notch 2 is provided at the edge of the through hole 11. The outer dimension of the limiting block is smaller than the dimension of the notch 2.

[0059] The notch 2 allows the locking pin 4 to move the limiting block through, and the locking pin 4 is limited in the open receiving cavity. At the same time, the end of the locking pin 4 away from the limiting block passes through the through hole 9 on the other ear plate 8. Then, by rotating the locking pin 4, the limiting block is displaced from the notch 2, thereby locking and preventing the locking pin 4 from falling off the ear plate 8, thus improving the reliability of the locking pin 4 in vertically limiting the hook 7.

[0060] Furthermore, the limiting block is a limiting post 5 threadedly connected to the outer wall of the locking pin 4. The limiting post 5 is located at one end of the locking pin 4, and the locking pin 4 is slidably limited within the receiving cavity.

[0061] Furthermore, to facilitate the rotation of the locking pin 4, a handle 6 is connected to one end of the locking pin 4 near the limiting post 5. The handle 6 has an L-shaped structure.

[0062] Furthermore, in order to prevent the limiting pin 5 on the locking pin 4 from accidentally coming off the notch 2, the notch 2 is located above the locking pin 4.

[0063] The working principle of the hook anti-detachment device provided by this utility model is as follows: When in use, the hook 7 is engaged with the connecting shaft 10, the locking pin 4 is aligned with the through hole 11 on the cover 1, and the locking pin 4 is inserted into the through hole 9 on the two ear plates 8. Simultaneously, the limiting post 5 on the locking pin 4 is aligned with the notch 2 on the cover 1. As the locking pin 4 is gradually inserted, the limiting post 5 passes through the notch 2 and enters the open receiving cavity. Then, the handle 6 is rotated, causing the locking pin 4 and the limiting post 5 to rotate, thus disengaging the limiting post 5 from the notch 2 and limiting the limiting post 5 to its designated position. Within the open receiving cavity, the locking pin 4 is positioned and connected to the two ear plates 8, effectively preventing the limiting post 5 on the locking pin 4 from coming out of the open receiving cavity during lifting. At this time, the locking pin 4 restricts the vertical movement of the hook 7 and is in a locked state, allowing the crane to be operated for lifting and moving of objects. After the object is moved, simply turn the handle 6 again to align the limiting post 5 with the notch 2 and pull the locking pin 4 outward. At this time, the vertical restriction of the hook 7 by the locking pin 4 is released, and the hook 7 is in an unlocked state. Then, the hook 7 can be removed.

They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation.

Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
