Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of special vehicle maintenance technology, specifically to a lifting support device for assembling irregularly shaped maintenance covers. Background Technology
[0002] This type of lightning protection special vehicle is the first product developed in my country using advanced foreign mine protection technology. It adopts a load-bearing V-shaped lightning protection vehicle body structure, comprehensively considering factors such as overall vehicle lightning protection performance, mobility, vehicle maintainability, interior space layout, ergonomics, and vehicle accessories to establish a complete vehicle protection system. Its comprehensive performance parameters are at an internationally leading level and domestically advanced, achieving several firsts in domestic lightning protection testing. Currently, through the adoption of a modular design approach and the addition of different protection modules tailored to user needs, this model has evolved into a series of vehicles and is widely deployed, having undergone numerous real-world tests and achieved significant economic benefits and social impact.
[0003] To facilitate vehicle chassis maintenance and meet overall lightning protection requirements, a series of maintenance holes are designed on the V-shaped floor of the vehicle body. The maintenance hole for the engine clutch adopts a special-shaped structure design (Z-shaped, large V-angle) with thick lightning protection material and a smooth surface treatment. The mounting position of this maintenance cover is located above the connection between the front axle transfer case and the drive shaft. During assembly and maintenance, difficulties often arise due to the narrow installation space (the height clearance is only 24cm, and the mounting position under the vehicle is 87cm from the ground), the heavy weight of the assembled parts (weighing up to 55.7Kg), and the smooth surface. This results in difficulties in lifting and assembling the maintenance cover, which requires one person to lift it and two people to lift it. The operator must squat down and manually lift the maintenance cover, which leads to difficulties in the lifting and assembly operation and safety hazards under long-term manual lifting and support assembly. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a lifting support device for assembling irregularly shaped inspection covers. This lifting support device can solve the problem of supporting parts during the maintenance of special vehicles and eliminate safety hazards for maintenance personnel.
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved by the following solution: a lifting support device for assembling irregularly shaped inspection covers, comprising a mounting base, a lifting support mechanism on the mounting base, and a lifting support mechanism on each side of the mounting base. Each lifting support mechanism includes a support rod, which is a hollow structure. A bearing is provided at the upper end of the support rod, and the bearing is fixed to a bearing seat via an upper bearing seat and a lower bearing seat. Adjustment handles are provided on both sides of the upper bearing seat. A lifting screw is provided inside the support rod, and the lifting screw passes through the bearing and the upper bearing seat and is threaded to the inner wall of the support rod. A support plate is provided at the top of the lifting screw, and the two support plates are V-shaped with an included angle α between them.
[0006] The mounting base is a rectangular mounting base, with casters at the four bottom corners and brakes on the casters.
[0007] The included angle α between the support plates is 140°.
[0008] The lifting support mechanism on the left side of the mounting base is located at the front left side of the mounting base, and the lifting support mechanism on the right side is located at the rear right side of the mounting base.
[0009] The upper bearing seat and the lower bearing seat are connected and fixed by fastening bolts.
[0010] The adjusting handle is threadedly connected to the bearing seat.
[0011] The bearing is installed in the bearing mounting seat, and the lower end of the bearing mounting seat is welded and fixed to the inner support rod. The inner support rod is located inside the support rod, and the lifting screw is threadedly connected to the inner support rod.
[0012] The advantage of this utility model is that it has been well applied to the lifting and assembly of the irregularly shaped inspection cover at the bottom of a certain type of special vehicle. It solves the problem of the difficulty in lifting and assembling the cover due to the narrow installation space, the heavy weight of the assembly parts, and the smooth surface of the parts, which makes it difficult for one person to lift and two people to lift it. It also eliminates the safety hazards caused by long-term manual lifting and support during the assembly operation. Attached Figure Description
