Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of modular cabin equipment, and in particular relates to a modular cabin wing frame retraction system. Background Technology
[0002] Temporary modular shelters are becoming increasingly useful, and the method of retracting the wing frame of these shelters has become a key focus for technology researchers. One existing technology involves a wing-shaped modular shelter whose structure includes a main body and a wing frame that is rotatably connected to the lower part of the main body. This wing frame can be deployed or retracted 180°.
[0003] Traditional modular container wing frame retraction systems, especially those involving the wing frame that rotates to the lower part of the container body, primarily rely on hand-cranked winches. Manual winch operation is inefficient and requires multiple employees to assist with the wing retraction operation. This significantly impacts operational efficiency and increases labor costs. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a modular container wing-mounted frame retraction system. By installing an electric winch and cylinders on the modular container, the retraction speed can be increased, thereby reducing the wing-mounted frame retraction time. At the same time, the addition of the electric winch can also reduce manual labor and save labor costs.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, one or more embodiments of this utility model provide a modular container wing frame retraction system, comprising: an electric winch, a steel wire rope, a lifting hole, and a cylinder; the electric winch is located on the inner wall of the modular container frame on the same side as the wing frame; the electric winch is connected to the steel wire rope through an internal cable reel, and during retraction, the other end of the steel wire rope is connected to the lifting hole, which is located on the wing of the wing frame; the cylinder is located at the bottom of the modular container frame.
[0006] In some embodiments, a winch base is vertically fixedly installed below the electric winch.
[0007] In some embodiments, the lifting holes are respectively located above and below the wing, which is positioned near the vertical edge of the inner wall of the wing frame. The "inner wall" and "outer wall" of the wing frame refer to the inner and outer walls of the wing frame when it is in the closed state.
[0008] In some embodiments, a V-shaped track wheel is also provided below the electric winch, and both the V-shaped track wheel and the winch base are mounted on an installation frame fixed to the inner wall of the cabin.
[0009] In some embodiments, the electric winch is connected to the wire rope via an internal cable reel.
[0010] In some embodiments, the wire rope passes over a track wheel, through an upper lifting hole of the wing, and connects to a lower lifting hole of the wing.
[0011] In some embodiments, the end of the wire rope can be connected to the lower lifting hole via a lifting ring.
[0012] In some embodiments, the cylinder is mounted on the bottom of the container via a cylinder mounting bracket, and the cylinder and the bottom mounting bracket are fixedly connected by hexagonal bolts.
[0013] In some embodiments, the cylinder abuts vertically against the outer wall of the fully deployed and lowered wingspan frame.
[0014] In some embodiments, the modular container includes a main body, the bottom of which is rotatably connected to a wing frame.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] The cylinder first lifts the wing frame to a certain angle, and then the electric winch lifts the wing frame again. A process that previously required multiple people can now be achieved solely through the combined operation of the cylinder and electric winch. This increases the speed and time of wing retraction, thereby improving efficiency and safety, solving problems such as slow efficiency and high costs, and reducing labor costs. The installation method of the electric winch system also ensures convenient disassembly and maintenance of the system in the future. Attached Figure Description

[0026] Where there is no conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.
[0027] One or more embodiments of this utility model provide a retraction system for a modular container's wing-shaped frame 10, applicable to a modular container. The container includes a main frame 9, the bottom of which is rotatably connected to a wing-shaped frame 10 that can be deployed downwards by 180°. Figure 1 As shown, the retraction system of the modular cabin wing frame 10 includes an electric winch 1, a steel wire rope 4, a lifting hole 8, and a cylinder 5. The electric winch 1 is located on the upper part of the inner wall of the modular cabin frame 9 on the same side as the deployable wing frame 10, distributed at both ends of the inner wall of the modular cabin frame 9. Two wings 7 are arranged on both sides of the inner wall of the wing frame 10 near the vertical edge, and a lifting hole 8 is provided above and below the wings 7 respectively. The cylinder 5 is located at the bottom of the modular cabin, facing outward. When the wing frame 10 is fully opened, the movable end of the cylinder 5 abuts vertically against the outer wall of the wing frame 10. The electric winch 1 is connected to the steel wire rope 4 through an internal cable reel. During retraction, the steel wire rope 4 inside the electric winch 1 is connected to the lifting hole 8.
[0028] Understandably, the “inner wall” and “outer wall” of the wing frame mentioned above refer to the inner and outer walls of the wing frame when it is closed.
[0029] The electric winch 1 is vertically fixed to a winch base 2, and the electric winch 1 is connected to the base 2 by bolts. The electric winch 1 is connected to a steel wire rope 4 via an internal cable reel. The steel wire rope 4 passes through a track wheel 3, through an upper lifting hole of the wing 7, and connects to a lower lifting hole 8 of the wing 7. The end of the steel wire rope 4 can be connected to the lower lifting hole 8 via a lifting ring. The electric winch 1 enables automated retrieval of the wing frame 10 of the container.
[0030] The electric winch base 2 is bolted to the mounting frame 11, facilitating the installation and fixation of the electric winch 1. The mounting frame 11 is bolted to the top of the side wall of the container frame. Furthermore, the design of the base 2 and the mounting frame 11 takes into account the maintenance needs of the electric winch 1, facilitating disassembly and repair.
[0031] The lifting holes 8 are respectively located above and below the wing 7. The steel cable passes through the upper lifting hole and connects to the lower lifting hole 8. The upper lifting hole ensures that the lifting direction of the steel cable will not deviate, and the lower lifting hole 8 ensures the connection between the steel wire rope 4 and the wing frame, thereby realizing the automated retraction of the wing frame 10.
[0032] The cylinder 5 is mounted on the bottom of the container via a cylinder mounting bracket 6, which is welded to the container. The cylinder 5 vertically abuts against the outer wall of the fully deployed and lowered wing frame 10. During retraction, the cylinder 5 first lifts the wing frame 10 to a certain angle, and then the electric winch 1 pulls the wing frame 10 up to complete the retraction. The cylinder 5 and the electric winch 1 work together to automate the retraction of the wing frame 10, eliminating the need for multiple people.
[0033] The electric winch 1 on the mounting frame 11 is also equipped with a V-shaped track wheel 3 below it, which is used to support the steel wire rope 4. The V-shaped track wheel 3 plays a guiding and supporting role for the steel wire rope 4, ensuring that the wing frame 10 can be raised and lowered smoothly and accurately.
[0034] The electric winch 1 and cylinder 5 are selected based on specifications, model, size, power, installation method, and other conditions.
[0035] In some embodiments, the wire rope 4 is typically connected to the electric winch 1 in the following manner:
[0036] Rope guide: Electric winch 1 is usually equipped with a rope guide, one end of the wire rope 4 passes through the rope guide to guide the winding direction of the wire rope 4.
[0037] Rope clamp: After the wire rope 4 passes through the guide wire, it will pass through the rope clamp. The function of the rope clamp is to fix the position of the wire rope 4 and prevent the wire rope 4 from becoming loose and slipping off on the winch.
[0038] Winding: The wire rope 4 is wound on the electric winch machine 1 to ensure that the wire rope 4 is evenly distributed on the winch, so as to ensure the normal operation and safety of the winch.
[0039] Example: First, connect the lifting hole 8 to the steel wire rope 4 via the lifting ring. Second, activate cylinder 5 to push the wing frame 10 to the retraction position. Third, activate electric winch 1; steel wire rope 4 and V-shaped track wheels 3 work together to begin retraction. V-shaped track wheels 3 provide guidance and support, ensuring the smooth and accurate raising and lowering of the wing frame 10. Fourth, cylinder 5 returns to its original position, and electric winch 1 completes the retraction of the wing frame 10.
[0040] The scope of protection of this utility model is defined only by the claims. Thanks to the teachings of this utility model, those skilled in the art will readily recognize that alternative structures to the disclosed structure can be used as feasible alternative implementations, and that the disclosed implementations can be combined to produce new implementations, which also fall within the scope of the appended claims.
