TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of marine equipment, and particularly relates to a ship-mounted container hoisting system. BACKGROUND
[0002] In modern port operations, a ship-mounted container hoisting system has become an indispensable important equipment, which plays an important role in improving port operation efficiency, reducing cost, and ensuring safety. With the development of technology, a ship-mounted container hoisting system is constantly innovated and improved to meet the growing demand for port operations.
[0003] A ship-mounted container hoisting system refers to a complete set of equipment system installed on a ship for hoisting and handling containers. This system usually includes hoisting machinery such as ship-mounted cranes or gantry cranes, control systems, spreaders for connecting containers, and hoisting equipment such as steel wires and pulley blocks for connecting hoisting machinery and spreaders. A ship-mounted container hoisting system realizes fast and accurate hoisting and handling of containers by precisely controlling the movement of hoisting machinery and spreaders, shortens the loading and unloading time, improves the turnover rate of ports and ships, reduces logistics cost, and improves transportation efficiency.
[0004] Traditional container spreaders are connected to the drum by four steel wires and suspended below the trolley. When the trolley or the car moves, especially in the case of fast movement or sudden start and stop, due to inertia, the container spreader and the container may sway or shake. Although the four steel wires provide stable support, they inevitably cause shaking in bad conditions such as strong winds, affecting the accuracy and safety of loading and unloading. Especially for containers with uneven mass distribution, the tension of the four steel wires may differ during hoisting. Over time, this may cause uneven wear of the steel wires and even risk of steel wire breakage. The four steel wires work simultaneously, and any damage or wear of any one steel wire may affect the safety of the entire hoisting system. Therefore, regular inspection, maintenance, and replacement of the steel wires are required, which increases maintenance cost and downtime.
[0005] In addition, when the winch controls the lifting of the spreader, it is necessary to ensure that the four steel wires can be synchronized to avoid tilting or twisting of the spreader. The control system requires high precision, and if the control accuracy of the winch is insufficient or there is an error in the mechanical structure, the steel wires may not be synchronized, which may affect the stability of the spreader.

[0030] The beneficial effects achieved by the utility model are as follows:
[0031] Firstly, the utility model adopts eight steel wire ropes (L1-L8) to connect the lifting appliance and the winding drum, which increases the stability of the hoisting system compared with the traditional four steel wire ropes. The design of multiple steel wire ropes can effectively reduce the inertial deviation and shaking generated during rapid movement or sudden start and stop, and improve the hoisting precision and safety. By setting the right pulley mechanism, the middle pulley mechanism, the left pulley mechanism and the complex winding mode, the tension distribution of the steel wire ropes is more uniform, the tension difference caused by uneven distribution of the container quality is reduced, and the hoisting stability is further improved.
[0032] Secondly, the design of eight steel wire ropes makes the tension borne by each steel wire rope relatively dispersed, reduces the risk of breakage of a single steel wire rope due to excessive tension, improves the safety and reliability of the entire hoisting system, and the tension distribution is more uniform, the wear of each steel wire rope is also more uniform, the premature damage and replacement frequency of the steel wire ropes caused by uneven wear are reduced, the maintenance cost and downtime are reduced.
[0033] Thirdly, through the accurate cooperative work of the large car and the small car and the real-time feedback adjustment of the control host, it is ensured that the lifting appliance can accurately align the lock hole of the container, and the adjustment and waiting time in the hoisting process is reduced. The transmission connection of the winch and the winding drum makes the lifting operation of the lifting appliance more rapid and accurate, and improves the hoisting efficiency.
[0034] Fourth: the setting of the fixed pulley (C1-C12) considers different angles (α, β, γ) to adapt to different hoisting needs and environmental conditions, and enhances the adaptability and flexibility of the hoisting system. In strong wind and other harsh conditions, multiple steel wires and complex winding methods can more effectively resist external interference and maintain the stability of the hoisting system.

Check whether the steel wires (L1-L8) are worn or broken, and ensure that all pulleys (C1-C12) are flexible. Start the control host and perform system self-check to ensure that the control system is error-free. According to the instructions of the control host or the indications of the operator, determine the specific position of the container to be hoisted.
[0058] Secondly, trolley 1 positioning;

Through real-time feedback of the control host, adjust the position of the trolley 1 to ensure that the trolley 2 track is aligned with the container to be hoisted.
[0060] Thirdly, trolley 2 accurate alignment;
[0061] Trolley 2 start: After the trolley 2 track is aligned with the container, the trolley drive mechanism 8 receives the control instructions and starts the trolley 2 walking device. The trolley 2 moves left and right along the track, and adjusts the position according to the real-time feedback of the control host to ensure that the spreader 7 can accurately align with the locking hole of the container.
[0062] Fourthly, spreader 7 winding and preparation for hoisting;
[0063] Spreader 7 winding: according to a specific winding method, connect eight steel wires (L1-L8) correctly between the pulley mechanism of the spreader 7 and the drum 5.

After ensuring that all steel wire connections are correct, pre-tighten the steel wires through the winch 6 to check the state of the spreader 7 and the steel wires.
[0064] Fifthly, hoisting operation;
[0065] Spreader 7 lifting: the winch 6 drives the drum 5 to rotate forward or reverse according to the control instructions, controls the lifting of the spreader 7. When the drum 5 rotates forward, the steel wire is wound on the drum 5, and the spreader 7 rises; when it rotates reversely, the steel wire is released, and the spreader 7 descends.
[0066] Lifting device 7 locks the container: under the control of the control system, the lifting device 7 slowly descends, and the locking jaw of the lifting beam 71 is connected with the locking hole of the container and locked.

[0067] Six, place the container;
[0068] Container positioning: after reaching the designated position, the cart 1 and the trolley 2 are accurately adjusted again to ensure that the container can be placed stably. The lifting device 7 releases the container: the control winch 6 makes the lifting device 7 slowly descend, and the locking jaw of the lifting beam 71 is separated from the locking hole of the container, and the container is released. The lifting device 7 returns to the initial position under the control of the winch 6, and is ready for the next lifting operation.
