[0018] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0019] like Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model is an automated glass curtain wall hoisting device, including a glass hanger 1 and a glass tilting frame 7. The glass hanger 1 has two first crossbeams 2 at its upper end, and a battery box 3 is provided between the two first crossbeams 2. The glass hanger 1 has two motor mounting beams 4 below the first crossbeams 2. Motors 5 are fixedly installed on both sides of the motor mounting beams 4. A rotating arm 6 is provided on the rotating shaft of the motor 5. The glass tilting frame 7 has a vertical beam 8 in the middle. Three second crossbeams 9 are arranged at equal intervals on both sides of the vertical beam 8. The rotating arm 6 is fixedly connected to the second crossbeam 9 in the middle of the glass tilting frame 7 at a point away from the motor 5. When the motor 5 is working, the motor 5 can drive the rotating arm 6 to rotate through the rotating shaft. Through the transmission of the rotating arm 6, the glass tilting frame 7 also rotates. By adjusting the angle of the glass tilting frame 7, the hoisting device can hoist glass for curtain walls with different tilt angles. Electric vacuum suction cups 10 are provided on the side of the second crossbeams 9 on both sides of the glass tilting frame 7 away from the glass hanger 1. The electric vacuum suction cups 10 can adsorb the glass.
[0020] The vertical beam 8 is provided with a remote control receiver 11 on the side away from the electric vacuum suction cup 10. The remote control receiver 11 can receive instructions issued by the remote control device. Through the PLC controller built into the remote control receiver 11, the corresponding mechanical equipment can be controlled, thereby realizing the operation of the hoisting device. A suction cup controller 12 is provided on one side of the remote control receiver 11. The suction cup controller 12 can control the working status of the electric vacuum suction cup 10.
[0021] The remote control receiver 11 is equipped with a matching remote control device.
[0022] The motor 5 is a worm gear reducer motor.
[0023] The battery box 3 is equipped with a lithium battery, which can power the electrical equipment of the hoisting device. At the same time, the battery box 3 is integrated with the hoisting device, which avoids the phenomenon of cable tangling compared with conventional cable power supply and improves the ease of use of the hoisting device.
[0024] The battery box 3 is provided with a double door 13 on the side away from the glass flip frame 7. The door 13 is movably connected to the battery box 3 via a hinge 14. The door 13 is provided with a latch 15. The door 13 makes it easier to put in and take out the lithium battery inside the battery box 3.
[0025] The glass hanger 1 is provided with lifting lugs 16 on both sides above, and the lifting lugs 16 are provided so that the lifting device can be lifted by the lifting equipment.
[0026] During the glass installation of the curtain wall, the remote control receiver 11 is operated via a remote control device, which in turn controls the electric vacuum suction cup 10 to adhere to the glass via the suction cup controller 12. The hoisting equipment's wire rope is lifted, and the hoisting device is slowly raised. The crane trolley moves to the exterior of the building and continues to lift, hoisting the curtain wall glass to the designated installation floor. Construction workers use steel hooks to hook the guy ropes, moving them into the floor and pulling the glass tilting frame 7 closer to the installed keel frame, positioning the glass tilting frame 7 above the U-shaped glass installation slot. The crane trolley is finely adjusted to lower the steel wire rope so that the glass is embedded in the U-shaped slot. The electric vacuum suction cup 10 is controlled by the remote control device to release the glass. At this time, the installation of the horizontal glass curtain wall is completed. For vertical and inclined surfaces, when the hoisting device moves to the installation position, the motor 5 drives the rotating arm 6 to rotate through the rotating shaft. Through the transmission of the rotating arm 6, the glass flipping frame 7 also rotates. By adjusting the angle of the glass flipping frame 7, the hoisting device can hoist the glass of the curtain wall with different inclination angles.
[0027] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
