Detailed Implementation
[0027] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0028] Please see Figures 1-4 This is a boiler in-furnace maintenance platform disclosed in an embodiment of this utility model. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1 The system includes multiple winches 1 installed on the top of the boiler. Each winch 1 includes a drive motor 11 and a winch section 12. Each winch section 12 has a traction steel wire 2 wound around it. An operating platform 3 is fixedly connected to the end of the traction steel wire 2 furthest from the winch 1. (See also...) Figure 2 A clutch 4 is installed between the drive motor 11 and the winch section 12. The clutch 4 is normally closed and includes a driver 41. The winch section 12 is fixedly equipped with a limit gear disc 51. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 3 The limiting gear disk 51 is provided with multiple annular arrays of internal teeth 511. The rotating shaft of the winch section 12 rotatably passes through the center of the limiting gear disk 51. Multiple limiting swing rods 52 are circumferentially hinged to the rotating shaft of the winch section 12. A centrifugal spring 53 is installed between the limiting swing rods 52 and the rotating shaft of the winch section 12. A disengagement switch 54 is installed on the side of the internal teeth 511. When the limiting swing rods 52 swing, they abut against the side where the disengagement switch 54 is located. The disengagement switch 54 is connected to the driver 41.
[0029] Specifically, a clutch 4 and a limiting gear 51 are installed on the winch 1. The limiting swing rod 52 is connected to the rotating shaft of the winch section 12 and is pulled by a centrifugal spring 53. When the winch 1 malfunctions and the winch section 12 drops rapidly, the centrifugal spring 53 is insufficient to provide the centrifugal force for the limiting swing rod 52, causing the limiting swing rod 52 to swing outward, engage with the internal gear 511, and press the disengagement switch 54. The disengagement switch 54 controls the clutch 4 to disengage.
[0030] In this way, by setting the limit lever 52 and the disengagement switch 54, when the winch 1 malfunctions, the limit lever 52 will stop the winch section 12 by engaging the internal teeth 511, thus stopping its descent. The disengagement switch 54 will also disconnect the drive motor 11 from the winch section 12 by the clutch 4, preventing the malfunctioning but still rotating drive motor 11 from colliding with the stopped winch section 12 and causing greater damage.
[0031] In some feasible embodiments, the drive motor 11 includes a motor and a reducer. For ease of explanation, the winch section 12 includes a mounting bracket and an I-beam. The limiting gear 51 is fixedly mounted on one side of the mounting bracket. The central shaft of the I-beam passes through the limiting gear 51 to mount the limiting swing rod 52. The disconnect switch 54 establishes a connection with the winch 1 controller, so that other winches 1 can brake to a stop synchronously, reducing the possibility of excessive tilting of the operating platform 3.
[0032] In some feasible methods, the internal gear 511 is provided with a protrusion 512 at the position near the limit lever 52 of the disengagement switch 54. After the limit lever 52 is engaged with the internal gear 511, the protrusion 512 restricts the limit lever 52, preventing the centrifugal spring 53 from pulling back the limit lever 52 and causing the winch section 12 to disengage from the braking state.
[0033] As one specific implementation of the boiler in-furnace maintenance platform provided in the application, please refer to Figure 4 The clutch 4 includes two clutch gears 42, which are respectively fixedly mounted on the drive motor 11 and slidably mounted on the winch section 12. The driver 41 is an electric actuator. The driver 41 is fixedly mounted on the winch section 12, and the output end of the driver 41 is connected to the clutch gears 42 of the winch section 12 through a bearing.
[0034] Overall, by setting the electric push rod as the driver 41, when the disconnect switch 54 is triggered, the electric push rod retracts, the two clutch gears 42 disengage from each other, so that the rotation of the drive motor 11 does not affect the braking of the winch section 12.
[0035] In some feasible embodiments, the clutch 4 also includes a sliding shaft, which is slidably keyed to the rotating shaft of the winch section 12. The sliding shaft is fixedly connected to the clutch gear 42, and a first ring is fixedly connected to the sliding shaft. A thrust bearing is mounted on the side of the first ring, and a second ring is provided on the side of the thrust bearing. The second ring is fixedly connected to the output end of the driver 41. When the output end of the driver 41 retracts, the second ring pushes the first ring to slide the sliding shaft, thereby disengaging the clutch gear 42.
[0036] Further, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 The winch section 12 is fixedly equipped with a metering wheel 55, the traction steel wire 2 passes around the metering wheel 55, and the metering wheel 55 is connected to a rotation sensor 551.
[0037] It should be understood that by setting the metering wheel 55, during the downward movement of the traction steel wire 2, the downward movement distance of multiple traction steel wires 2 is perceived, so that the downward movement distance of multiple traction steel wires 2 is consistent, reducing the inconvenience caused by the tilting of the operating table 3.
[0038] In some feasible embodiments, the rotation count sensor 551 can be used as a proximity switch to calculate the rotation count and thus the downward distance of the traction wire 2. The rotation count sensor 551 can be connected to the central control system of the winch 1 to control the speed of the winch 1 when the downward distance is abnormal.
[0039] In some feasible ways, a gyroscope module is set in the center of the operating platform 3 and connected to the central control system of the winch 1, so as to more accurately measure the tilt state of the operating platform 3 in conjunction with the measuring wheel 55.
[0040] Furthermore, the measuring wheel 55 is slidably connected to the clamping wheel 552, the traction steel wire 2 is located between the measuring wheel 55 and the clamping wheel 552, and the clamping wheel 552 is threadedly connected to the fixing bolt 533 for fixing the position of the clamping wheel 552.
[0041] It should be understood that by setting the clamping wheel 552, the friction between the metering wheel 55 and the traction steel wire 2 is increased after clamping, making the metering wheel 55 more accurate in measuring.
[0042] As another specific embodiment of the boiler in-furnace maintenance platform provided in the application, it also includes multiple second winches 21. The second winches 21 are equipped with safety steel wires 211. The second winches 21 are installed on one side of the winch 1. The second winches 21 are equipped with a limit toothed disc 51, a limit swing rod 52 and a centrifugal spring 53. The second winches 21 are connected to the drive motor 11. A one-way ratchet is provided between the drive motor 11 and the second winches 21. The safety steel wires 211 are connected to the operating table 3.
[0043] Based on specific usage scenarios, a second winch 21 is installed so that, in the event of a breakage of the traction steel wire 2, the safety steel wire 211 of the second winch 21 provides tension to the operating platform 3. A one-way ratchet is installed between the drive motor 11 and the second winch 21, ensuring that the second winch 21 is not under tension during the downward movement of the operating platform 3, and is wound up by the drive motor 11 during the upward movement. Furthermore, the second winch 21 remains unaffected if the downward speed of the drive motor 11 becomes abnormal.
[0044] Furthermore, a force sensor is installed below the winch 1, and the force sensor is connected to a buzzer alarm.
[0045] It should be understood that by setting up a force sensor to detect the downward pressure of the winch 1, the breakage of the traction steel wire 2 can be detected and an alarm can be triggered for timely handling.
[0046] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
