DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] Embodiment one, as shown in Figures 1-3 .

[0025] A hook with adjustable spacing, comprising frame 1 and rotary system 2 installed on both sides of frame 1, frame 1 is a square frame structure, which is stable in structure and has good load capacity.

[0026] Rotary system 2 includes multiple chain wheels 21 distributed on the side of frame 1 and transmission chain 22 meshing with chain wheels 21, wherein transmission chain 22 is bent multiple times. Chain wheels 21 are distributed in a rectangular shape as a whole, and chain wheels 21 include guide wheels 211 at the four corners, and multiple steering wheels 212 are distributed in the high-low staggered manner inside. In this embodiment, the steering wheels are distributed in a "W" shape, and the steering wheels 212 include three upper steering wheels and two lower steering wheels, wherein the lower steering wheels are at the same height as the bottom guide wheels 211, and the three upper steering wheels are at the same height and are all located below the top guide wheels 211. In this embodiment, the lower steering wheels are driven to rotate by the rotary motor, thereby making the whole rotary system 2 run.

[0027] Multiple support plates 11 are fixedly connected on the inner side of frame 1 by welding, and support plates 11 correspond to chain wheels 21 one by one, and the two are rotationally connected by rotating shafts, which is prior art and will not be described again.

[0028] The connecting rods 3 are rotatably connected with the hooks 4. In the embodiment, two hooks 4 are arranged on each connecting rod 3. The upper portion of each hook 4 is provided with a circular suspension hole 41. The diameter of the suspension hole 41 is larger than the diameter of the connecting rod 3, so as to ensure the flexibility between the hook 4 and the connecting rod 3, and enable the hook 4 to freely rotate around the connecting rod 3. The suspension objects such as the reel and the rubber roller are suspended between the two hooks 4.

[0029] It is worth noting that, in actual operation, the suspension objects suspended on the hooks 4 move around the sprockets 21 along with the transmission chains 23. In this process, the orientation of the connecting rod 3 changes when it passes through the sprockets 21. By rotatably connecting the hook 4 with the connecting rod 3, the hook 4 rotates with the connecting rod 3 under the action of gravity or the gravity of the suspension objects, so that the hook 4 always presents a vertical state, thereby realizing the vertical bearing of the suspension objects and preventing the suspension objects from being separated from the hooks 4 during the movement.

[0030] Different types and models of suspension objects have different sizes, and therefore, the distance between the hooks 4 needs to be adjusted according to the size of the suspension objects. When the distance between the hooks 4 is adjusted to an appropriate distance, the hooks 4 need to be fixed. Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the hooks 4 are provided with locking members 5 on both sides. In the embodiment, the locking member 5 includes a sliding ring 501 which is sleeved on the outer periphery of the connecting rod 3 and is in sliding connection with the connecting rod 3. The inner diameter of the sliding ring 501 is the same as the diameter of the connecting rod 3. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the outer side of the sliding ring 501 is provided with a locking hole 502 in the radial direction. The locking hole 502 penetrates the inner and outer sides of the sliding ring 501, that is, the depth of the locking hole 502 is equal to the ring width of the sliding ring 501. A locking screw 503 is threadedly connected in the locking hole 502. By tightening the locking screw 503, the free end of the locking screw 503 abuts against the connecting rod 3, so as to lock and fix the sliding ring 501 with the connecting rod 3, thereby limiting the hooks 4 between the two sliding rings 501, preventing the hooks 4 from moving again after the distance adjustment is completed, and placing the suspension objects without temporarily fixing the hooks 4 by hand or other ways, which greatly improves the storage efficiency of the suspension objects and reduces the labor intensity of the workers. Embodiment

[0031] The difference between the embodiment and the first embodiment is that, in the embodiment, the hooks 4 are rotatably connected with the connecting rods 3 by means of the sliding rings 501 and the locking screws 503. Figure 4As shown, the side of the suspension hole 41 is provided with an annular accommodating groove 504, the accommodating groove 504 is concentric with the suspension hole 41, the accommodating groove 504 is located at the central position inside the hook 4 and the width of the accommodating groove 504 is smaller than the thickness of the hook 4, a plurality of rotating shafts 505 are arranged between the two sides of the accommodating groove 504 in the axial direction, the two ends of the rotating shaft 505 are fixedly connected with the side wall of the accommodating groove 504 by welding, the extension direction of the rotating shaft 505 is consistent with the width direction of the accommodating groove 504, the rotating shaft 505 is rotatably connected with a roller 506, the roller 506 is in gap with the accommodating groove 504, and the roller 506 is in line contact with the outer surface of the connecting rod 3.

[0032] The hook 4 and the connecting rod 3 are in line contact through the roller 506, compared with the surface contact in the first embodiment, on the one hand, the friction between the hook 4 and the connecting rod 3 can be effectively reduced, so that the rotation of the hook 4 is more smooth, on the other hand, dust and granular debris are not easy to accumulate, which can effectively prevent the hook 4 and the connecting rod 3 from being stuck due to debris. Embodiment

[0033] The difference between the embodiment and the first embodiment is that, in the embodiment, as shown, Figure 5 A plurality of spherical mounting grooves 507 are arranged on the side wall of the suspension hole 41 in the circumferential direction, a ball 508 is rotatably connected in the spherical mounting groove 507, and the ball 508 is in point contact with the outer surface of the connecting rod 3.

[0034] The hook 4 and the connecting rod 3 are in point contact through the ball 508, compared with the surface contact between the hook 4 and the connecting rod 3 in the first embodiment, the point contact can effectively reduce the friction between the hook 4 and the connecting rod 3, so that the hook 4 can more easily rotate with the connecting rod 3.

[0035] Finally, it should be pointed out that the above preferred embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical scheme of the present application and are not limiting, although the present application has been described in detail through the above preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes can be made in form and details without departing from the scope defined by the claims of the present application.
