AI Technical Summary
In hydraulic cylinder drive devices, as the operating time increases, the hydraulic cylinder and the hydraulic cylinder rod connection are prone to change (such as sinking), causing the front end of the reciprocating drive to tilt. Existing technology solves this problem by using a rolling limiter, but this requires space and is costly.
The system employs a combined structure of track support plate, track, base, and sliding plate, which is fixed to the steel frame by multiple fixing mechanisms. The track and sliding plate are formed using wear-resistant materials, and the sliding plate engages with the track to prevent wear on the sliding parts, thus achieving a compact layout.
It effectively suppresses the variation of the hydraulic cylinder relative to the reciprocating drive, improves the stability and maintenance convenience of the drive device, and avoids the increase of complex mechanical devices.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a drive device using a hydraulic cylinder. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, reciprocating motion mechanisms are common mechanical motion mechanisms in production sites and living environments. Among these mechanisms, hydraulic cylinder drive devices are widely used due to their high reliability, stable power, and ease of control. For example, in the field of waste incineration, hydraulic cylinders are installed on the steel frame of the incinerator to reciprocate the grate plates connected via hydraulic cylinder rods, thereby achieving adjustment of the waste layer and stable combustion (see Patent Document 1 below).
[0003] However, in the technology described in Patent Document 1, which uses a hydraulic cylinder mounted on a steel frame to reciprocate a heavy object such as a grate, the hydraulic cylinder and the hydraulic cylinder rod connection (i.e., the rear end of the reciprocating drive) tend to shift (e.g., sink) relative to the reciprocating drive direction over time. Due to excessive resistance at the front end and insufficient support at the bottom, the front end of the reciprocating drive is prone to tilting. Generally, this problem is mostly solved by adding rolling limits to the front and rear ends. Compared to other methods, rolling limits offer advantages such as high stability and less wear, but they require space in their layout and are more expensive.

[0047] The following is for reference Figures 1-5 This description describes a driving device as an embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that the embodiments shown below are merely illustrative and are not intended to exclude various modifications or applications of techniques not explicitly shown. The structures shown in the embodiments can be implemented through various modifications without departing from their spirit. Furthermore, the structures shown in the embodiments, in addition to the essential components of the present invention, can be selected or appropriately combined as needed.
[0048] [1. Structure]
[0049] The drive device 1A in this embodiment is applied, for example, to a grate furnace (incinerator) used for waste incineration. Specifically, the drive device 1A is positioned obliquely below the grate bars outside the grate furnace and reciprocates to drive the grate bars. It should be noted that... Figure 1 This is a side view of the drive unit 1A, omitting the incinerator and part of the drive unit 1A.
[0050] like Figure 1 As shown, the drive device 1A includes a hydraulic cylinder 1 mounted on a steel frame 3. A grate bar (not shown) is connected to the hydraulic cylinder rod connecting part 2 of the hydraulic cylinder 1 via a connecting rod 2A. The hydraulic cylinder 1 reciprocates the grate bar (not shown) (see reference). Figure 1 (The hollow arrow in the middle).
[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, in the drive device 1A of this embodiment, the structure for suppressing the movement of the hydraulic cylinder 1 relative to reciprocating drive includes a track support plate 4, a track 5, a base 6, a sliding plate 7, a bolt 8 (first fixing mechanism), a first nut 9 (first fixing mechanism), a second fixing mechanism, and a third fixing mechanism. In this embodiment, these elements 4 to 9 are arranged at the rear end away from the front end of the grate plate on which the weight (object) is set, between the hydraulic cylinder rod connecting part 2 of the hydraulic cylinder 1 and the steel frame 3, thus facilitating regular maintenance and repair.
[0052] The track support plate 4 is positioned between the hydraulic cylinder rod connection 2 and the steel frame 3, and is fixed to the steel frame 3 via multiple first fixing mechanisms 8 and 9. Figure 2 As shown, four first fixing mechanisms 8 and 9 are provided, and the four first fixing mechanisms 8 and 9 are respectively fixed to the steel frame 3, so that the track support plate 4 can be reliably installed.
[0053] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first fixing mechanism includes a bolt 8 and a first nut 9. Here, the track support plate 4, which is roughly rectangular in top view, has four through holes 10. Figure 2 As shown by the dashed line, four through holes 10 are similarly arranged at the corners around the track support plate 4, and the bolts 8 cooperate with the through holes 10. That is, the bolts 8 are inserted into the through holes 10, and one end of the bolts 8 inserted into the through holes 10 is fixed to the steel frame 3, for example by circular welding, and the bolts 8 are firmly installed on the steel frame 3.
[0054] Two first nuts 9 are installed relative to each bolt 8. Specifically, the upper and lower ends of each bolt 8, which is inserted into each through hole 10, protrude above and below the track support plate 4, respectively. A first nut 9 is installed (screwed) at each end of each bolt 8 protruding above and below the track support plate 4. That is, by screwing the two first nuts 9 into the two ends of each bolt 8, both first nuts 9 are simultaneously fixed to the track support plate 4. Therefore, not only can the track support plate 4 be securely installed, but it can also effectively withstand the load applied to the track support plate 4.
[0055] Moreover, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, the track 5 is securely mounted on the upper surface of the track support plate 4 (i.e., the surface of the track support plate 4 away from the steel frame 3) via a second fixing mechanism. The track 5 is formed of a wear-resistant material. Because the wear-resistant material has excellent wear resistance, the service life of the track 5 can be increased.
[0056] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a pair of second fixing mechanisms separated along the extension direction are provided on the track 5. At the two locations where the pair of second fixing mechanisms are provided, the track 5 is fixed to the center of the track support plate 4 in the width direction.
[0057] Specifically, the second fixing mechanism includes a countersunk bolt 11 and a second nut 12. A pair of countersunk holes 13, symmetrically positioned on the track 5, engage with the countersunk bolt 11. The countersunk bolt 11 passes through the track 5 along the countersunk holes 13. A pair of first threaded holes 14, symmetrically positioned corresponding to the countersunk holes 13, are arranged on the track support plate 4. The countersunk bolt 11 is screwed into the first threaded holes 14, and the countersunk bolt 11 is screwed into the track support plate 4 along the first threaded holes 14.
[0058] Furthermore, the lower end of each countersunk bolt 11 protrudes from the lower surface of the track support plate 4, so a second nut 12 is installed at the lower end of the countersunk bolt 11. By installing the second nut 12 onto the countersunk bolt 11, the track 5 is securely installed onto the track support plate 4. By unscrewing the second nut 12 from the countersunk bolt 11, and then unscrewing the countersunk bolt 11 from the first threaded hole 14, the track 5 can be easily removed from the track support plate 4, allowing for easy replacement of the track 5.
[0059] In addition, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, a base 6 is provided (e.g., welded) on the lower surface of the hydraulic cylinder rod connection portion 2 of the hydraulic cylinder 1. A sliding plate 7 is provided on the lower surface side of the base 6 via a third fixing mechanism. That is, the sliding plate 7 is provided on the side offset from the hydraulic cylinder 1 via the third fixing mechanism. The sliding plate 7 is a plate member that can slidably engage with the track 5. Specifically, the sliding plate 7 is arranged above the track 5 in an orientation opposite to the upper surface of the track 5. The sliding plate 7 is formed of a wear-resistant material. The wear-resistant material has good wear resistance and can improve the service life of the sliding plate 7.
[0060] It should be noted that the sliding plate 7 is not limited to wear-resistant materials; it can also be formed of a self-lubricating material (a so-called oil-free plate). In this case, the lifespan of the sliding plate 7 can also be improved. That is, both the track 5 and the sliding plate 7 can be formed of wear-resistant materials, or at least one of the track 5 and the sliding plate 7 can be formed of wear-resistant materials.
[0061] Two third fixing mechanisms are provided separately in the width direction, and the two parts of the two third fixing mechanisms, which are separated in the width direction, securely install the sliding plate 7 onto the base 6.
[0062] Specifically, the third fixing mechanism includes hexagon socket head cap screws 15. Two hexagon socket head cap screws 15 are provided for each third fixing mechanism. On the lower surface of the sliding plate 7, a pair of countersunk holes 16 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the third fixing mechanism. The hexagon socket head cap screws 15 are inserted into the countersunk holes 16 such that they pass through the sliding plate 7 along the countersunk holes 16. Additionally, on the base 6, a pair of second threaded holes 17 are arranged symmetrically with respect to the countersunk holes 16, and the second threaded holes 17 engage with the hexagon socket head cap screws 15.
[0063] The sliding plate 7 can be easily installed on the base 6 by screwing the socket head cap screw 15 into the countersunk hole 16 and the second threaded hole 17. If the socket head cap screw 15 is rotated in the opposite direction to when it is installed from the second threaded hole 17, the sliding plate 7 can be removed from the base 6, thus making the replacement of the sliding plate 7 easy.
[0064] When the hydraulic cylinder 1 is activated, the hydraulic cylinder rod connecting part 2 of the hydraulic cylinder 1 reciprocates, and the sliding plate 7 reciprocates (slides) along the upper surface of the track 5. This not only eliminates the need for installation space but also eliminates the need for an additional sliding support mechanism. Furthermore, it prevents the hydraulic cylinder 1 and the hydraulic cylinder rod connecting part 2 from shifting relative to the reciprocating drive during operation (e.g., sinking), effectively preventing the hydraulic cylinder 1 from shifting (e.g., sinking).
[0065] In addition, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the sliding plate 7 and the track 5 cooperate with each other. Specifically, a gap 18 is provided between the sliding plate 7 and the track 5. When the hydraulic cylinder 1 has no tendency to sink, this gap 18 prevents contact between the track 5 and the sliding plate 7. The gap 18 can be determined according to the actual usage conditions. More specifically, the distance of the gap 18 can be set to be smaller when the sinking is severe during operation, and larger when the sinking is relatively slight.
[0066] Furthermore, to adjust the gap 18 between the sliding plate 7 and the track 5, the two first nuts 9 of each bolt 8 of the track support plate 4 can be rotated. This allows for effective adjustment of the height of the track support plate 4 and the distance of the gap 18 between the track 5 and the sliding plate 7. As a result, the track 5 can be set to always be parallel to the movement of the sliding plate 7, and can be immediately stopped during operation if the hydraulic cylinder 1 tends to sink. Therefore, tilting of the hydraulic cylinder 1 can be effectively prevented.
[0067] Preferably, in this embodiment, the length of the track 5 needs to be determined based on the reciprocating stroke of the hydraulic cylinder 1. The width of the sliding plate 7 needs to be determined based on the width of the track 5. Specifically, when manufacturing the track 5 and the sliding plate 7, the minimum distance between a pair of countersunk holes 13 in the track 5 is set to be greater than the reciprocating stroke of the hydraulic cylinder 1. In addition, the minimum distance between a pair of countersunk holes 16 in the sliding plate 7 is set to be greater than the width of the track 5. As a result, the coordination between the track 5 and the sliding plate 7 can be made more accurate, and the movement of the hydraulic cylinder 1 relative to the reciprocating drive can be prevented more effectively.
