Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a lamp disassembly device, specifically an embedded navigation lamp disassembly vehicle. Background Technology
[0002] Navigational lighting systems are crucial for ensuring safe takeoff and landing of aircraft. These lights provide pilots with essential visual guidance through precise light reflection, ensuring that aircraft can accurately identify runway and taxiway boundaries and centerlines at night or in low visibility conditions. Airport navigational lighting systems utilize recessed installation, minimizing their impact on the airport environment and enhancing overall safety and aesthetics by mounting them in bases below ground.
[0003] However, these lights face numerous challenges during long-term use. The complex environmental factors at airports, such as frequent crushing by aircraft, vehicles, and other traffic on the tarmac, cause significant deformation and compression to the aluminum alloy material of the light panels, leading to edge wear, reflective lens detachment, and damage to the external structure. These problems not only severely affect the light reflection performance of the lights, reducing runway and taxiway visibility, but also pose a potential threat to aircraft safety. Therefore, it is necessary to disassemble and replace those navigation lights that are no longer usable. However, because the lights were not designed with auxiliary disassembly tools, disassembly is extremely difficult. Furthermore, over time, debris such as mud and sand easily clog the gaps between the navigation lights and their bases, further increasing the difficulty of disassembly. Traditional disassembly methods often require multiple people working together, using rudimentary tools such as pry bars for forced removal, which is not only time-consuming and laborious but also prone to causing secondary damage or even rendering the lights unusable.

[0029] like Figure 1-3 As shown, this utility model includes a frame 1, a bracket 2 mounted on the frame 1, a telescopic drive component 3 mounted on the bracket 2, a lifting frame 4 mounted on the upper end of the piston rod of the telescopic drive component 3, a support rod 5 mounted on the lower end of the lifting frame 4, and a lamp panel locking and fixing device 6 sleeved on the support rod 5. The lower end of the lamp panel locking and fixing device 6 can lock and fix the navigation light 7. In use, the piston rod of the telescopic drive component 3 extends and pushes the lifting frame 4 upward. The lifting frame 4 drives the support rod 5, the lamp panel locking and fixing device 6 sleeved on the support rod 5, and the navigation light 7 fixed at the lower end of the lamp panel locking and fixing device 6 to move upward, pulling the navigation light 7 out of the base.
[0030] A wheel 16 is provided at the lower end of the frame 1, and a pull rod 14 is provided at the front end of the frame. The present invention can be pulled to the position where the navigation light 7 needs to be removed by means of the pull rod 14. In this embodiment, a headlight 15 is provided at the rear end of the frame, and the installation position of the headlight 15 can be selected according to actual needs. The headlight 15 is detachably mounted on the frame 1. The headlight 15 is a rechargeable light fixture, and can be removed from the frame when charging is required.
[0031] The lower end of the frame 1 is a base plate 11, with a vertical pole 12 attached to each of the four corners of the base plate 11. A top plate 13 is connected to the upper end of the four vertical poles 12. Wheels 16 are symmetrically arranged near the four corners of the lower end of the base plate 11. A pull rod 14 is hinged to the front end of the base plate 11, which can pull the vehicle to the position where the navigation light 7 needs to be disassembled. The wheels 6 are omnidirectional wheels with brakes, capable of rotating 360 degrees. This means that the disassembly vehicle can be easily moved to directly above the navigation light without complicated steering operations. The braking function ensures that the disassembly vehicle can stop stably after reaching the predetermined position, and will not affect the smooth progress of the disassembly operation due to accidental movement. In this embodiment, a headlight 15 is provided at the rear end of the base plate, and the installation position of the headlight 15 can be selected according to actual needs. The headlight 15 is detachably mounted on the frame 1. The headlight 15 is a rechargeable light fixture, which can be removed from the frame when charging is required.
[0032] The pull rod 14 is hinged to the base plate 11 so that it can be rotated upwards and retracted after use, reducing space occupation. Four wheels 16 are located near the four corners of the lower end of the base plate 11 for easy movement between the navigation lights 7. An elongated hole is provided on the base plate 11 for the support rod 5 to pass through. When the telescopic drive 3 lifts the lifting frame 4 and the support rod 5 drives the light panel locking device to pull out the navigation lights 7, the elongated hole prevents the support rod 5 from interfering with the base plate 11. The top plate 13 can be used to place maintenance tools, new navigation lights, and disassembled old navigation lights. Anti-slip pads or acrylic sheets are provided on the top plate 13 to increase its friction. A railing 17 is provided at the upper end of the top plate 13 to prevent the navigation lights 7 or tools placed on the top plate 13 from falling off.
[0033] The bracket 2 spans the elongated hole in the base plate 11. The lower part of the bracket 2 consists of uprights 21 positioned opposite each other at the front and rear ends of the base plate 11, while the upper part is a mounting plate spanning the uprights 21. The telescopic drive component 3 is mounted on the mounting plate 22. A lighting lamp 23 is installed at the lower end of the mounting plate 22. The lighting lamp 23 enables the disassembly vehicle to operate under various lighting conditions, including complete darkness, helping to reduce operator errors and improve work efficiency.
[0034] The telescopic drive component 3 is a manual hydraulic jack, which includes a hydraulic cylinder 31 mounted on a mounting plate 22, a manual pump 32 for lifting the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 31, and a hydraulic pipe 33 connecting the manual pump and the hydraulic cylinder 31. Normally, the manual pump 32 is placed on the mounting plate 22 of the bracket; when in use, it is removed and placed on the ground for operation. The mounting plate 22 is a slotted plate with the slot facing upwards, which prevents the manual pump 32 and the hydraulic pipe 33 from falling.
[0035] The lifting frame 4 includes a connecting plate 41 attached to the piston rod of the hydraulic cylinder 31, a lifting rod 42 attached to the lower end of the connecting plate 41, and a hanging ring 43 attached to the lower end of the lifting rod 42. The connecting plate 41 is arranged along the front-rear direction of the vehicle frame. There are two lifting rods 42, which are respectively attached to the front and rear ends of the connecting plate 41. Holes for the lifting rods 42 to pass through are provided on the mounting plate 22, and the lifting rods 42 pass through the mounting plate 13. The hanging rings 43 are used to sleeve the support rods 5, and the support rods 5 pass through the two hanging rings 43.
[0036] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, there are two types of navigation lights 7: one is a passive reflective centerline light 71, and the other is an active centerline light 72. The passive reflective centerline light 71 has a downward fixing hole in the middle of the top of the light panel, while the active centerline light 72 has symmetrical disassembly holes on both sides of the light panel.
[0037] There are two types of lamp panel locking devices 6: a passive lamp panel locking device 61 and an active lamp panel locking device 62. The passive lamp panel locking device 61 is used to fix the passive reflector centerline lamp 71 during disassembly, while the active lamp panel locking device is used to fix the active centerline lamp 72 during disassembly. Figure 4 As shown, the passive lamp panel locking device 61 includes a first lifting ring 611, a first stud 612 connected to the lower end of the first lifting ring 611, and a multi-lobed sleeve fitted onto the first stud 612. The upper part of the multi-lobed sleeve is a first threaded sleeve 613 fitted onto the first stud 612, and the lower part is a multi-lobed support sleeve 614 connected to the lower end of the first threaded sleeve 613. The inner diameter of the multi-lobed support sleeve 614 is smaller than the inner diameter of the first nut sleeve 18. When the first stud 612 is inserted into the multi-lobed support sleeve 614, the multi-lobed support sleeve 614 can open outwards and thus lock into the top fixing hole of the passive reflector centerline lamp 71, achieving reliable locking and fixation. The first lifting ring 611 is used to fit onto the support rod 5. A multi-lobed sleeve refers to a threaded sleeve whose lower end is evenly divided into multiple (two or more) petal-shaped structures. In this embodiment, the multi-lobed sleeve is a four-lobed sleeve, and a suitable multi-lobed sleeve can be selected according to the actual situation. The multi-lobed sleeve comes in various sizes to accommodate different sizes and types of lamp panels.
[0038] like Figure 5As shown, the active lamp panel locking device 62 includes a second lifting ring 621, a second stud 622 connected to the lower end of the second lifting ring 621, a second threaded sleeve 623 sleeved on the second stud 622, two connecting rods 624 symmetrically hinged at both ends of the second threaded sleeve 623, and a clamping claw 625 hinged on each connecting rod 624. The lower end of the clamping claw 625 is an inwardly extending claw, which is used to engage with the two disassembly holes on the lamp panel of the active center line lamp 72. The second lifting ring 621 is used to be sleeved on the support rod 5. In use, first, the claws of the two clamping claws 625 are inserted into the disassembly holes on both sides of the lamp panel of the active center line lamp. Then, the stud 25 is rotated so that the lower end of the stud 25 presses against the top of the top plate of the active center line lamp, and the two clamping claws 625 are tightened and cannot be pulled out of the disassembly holes. Then, the support rod is passed through the two hanging rings 43 and the second lifting ring 621, and then the active center line lamp 72 is pulled out from the mounting hole by the telescopic drive.
