Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of vehicle body conveying equipment, specifically a flatbed gantry conveyor. Background Technology

[0002] Open wagons are a common type of railway freight car, characterized by being uncovered and having four side panels, two of which have fold-down side doors for easy unloading of goods. Open wagons are mainly used to transport bulk goods such as coal, ore, mining construction materials, timber, and steel, which are generally not affected by wind or rain. Furthermore, by covering the loaded goods with waterproof tarpaulins or other coverings, open wagons can also replace covered wagons to transport goods susceptible to rain damage, thus demonstrating their versatility.

[0003] In the current production process of open wagons, due to their large body size, they often need to be moved and transported during processing, which frequently presents significant challenges. Therefore, a specialized handling device for open wagon body processing is needed to improve the efficiency of open wagon body processing. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an open-top gantry conveyor to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A gantry conveyor vehicle includes conveyor wheels, a main body, an upper push plate, and a limiting plate. Four evenly distributed conveyor wheels are arranged at the bottom of the main body. A bottom support compartment is arranged at the lower part of the main body. An upper push plate is arranged above the bottom support compartment. Limiting plates are arranged on both sides of the upper push plate, and the limiting plates are perpendicular to the direction of the upper push plate.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the main body includes a bottom rib plate, an oil tank, a main frame, a reducer, a main shaft, and a drive cylinder. The bottom rib plate is located below the main body and is configured to cooperate with the bottom support compartment. The main frame is configured above the bottom rib plate. An oil tank is located at the center of the main frame. A drive cylinder is configured above the oil tank, and its output end is connected to an upper push plate. A reducer is located inside the main frame. A main shaft is configured on the reducer and is parallel to the limiting plate.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the conveying wheel includes a shaft seat, a support seat, a main rotating wheel, a shaft stop block and a mating gear. The shaft seat is mated with the bottom of the main vehicle body. The support seat is mated with the support seat below the shaft seat. The main rotating wheel is located at the center of the support seat. The shaft stop block and the mating gear are mated with the main rotating wheel on the outer side. The mating gear is located on the outer side of the shaft stop block.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the upper push plate includes a support plate, a main mating shaft and a direction correction shaft. The support plate is positioned above the upper push plate, and the main mating shaft is provided below the support plate. The main mating shaft is mated with the output end of the drive cylinder. Direction correction shafts are provided on both sides of the main mating shaft, and the direction correction shafts are parallel to the main mating shaft.

[0010] As a further improvement of this utility model: the main rotating wheel has a groove inside, and the surface of the groove is coated with lubricating oil.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: During use, the device uses an upper push plate set above the main body to limit the movement of the open flatcar body to be transported. At the same time, the upper push plate can limit the height according to the actual shape parameters of the car body, improving the engagement during the car body transport process and preventing the car body from shaking. Meanwhile, the conveying speed of the main car body can be controlled by the installation of axle blocks and cooperating gears on the outside of the conveying wheel, thereby adapting to the open flatcar body transport tasks under different conditions.

[0017] 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.

[0018] Example 1

[0019] Please see Figure 1-4 This embodiment provides an open-top gantry conveyor, including conveyor wheels 1, main body 3, upper push plate 4 and limiting plate 5. Four evenly distributed conveyor wheels 1 are provided at the bottom of the main body 3. A bottom support compartment 2 is provided at the lower part of the main body 3. The upper push plate 4 is provided above the bottom support compartment 2. Limiting plates 5 are provided on both sides of the upper push plate 4, and the limiting plates 5 are perpendicular to the direction of the upper push plate 4.

[0020] Furthermore, the main body 3 includes a bottom rib plate 101, an oil tank 102, a main frame 103, a reducer 104, a main rotating shaft 105, and a drive cylinder 106. The bottom rib plate 101 is located below the main body 3 and is configured to cooperate with the bottom support compartment 2. The main frame 103 is configured above the bottom rib plate 101. The oil tank 102 is located at the center of the main frame 103. The drive cylinder 106 is configured above the oil tank 102, and its output end is connected to the upper push plate 4. The reducer 104 is located inside the main frame 103. The main rotating shaft 105 is configured on the reducer 104 and is parallel to the limiting plate 5.

[0021] Furthermore, the conveying wheel 1 includes a shaft seat 201, a support seat 202, a main rotating wheel 203, a shaft stop 204, and a mating gear 205. The shaft seat 201 mates with the bottom of the main vehicle body 3. The support seat 202 is located below the shaft seat 201. The main rotating wheel 203 is located at the center of the support seat 202. The shaft stop 204 and the mating gear 205 are located on the outer side of the main rotating wheel 203. The mating gear 205 is located on the outer side of the shaft stop 204. The main rotating wheel 203 located below the conveying wheel 1 mates with the track, enabling the main vehicle body 3 to be conveyed forward on the track. At the same time, the shaft stop 204 and the mating gear 205 can be used with external devices to limit the movement of the conveying wheel 1, thereby changing its actual conveying speed.

[0022] Furthermore, the upper push plate 4 includes a support plate 301, a main mating shaft 302, and a direction correction shaft 303. The support plate 301 is positioned above the upper push plate 4, and the main mating shaft 302 is fitted below the support plate 301, engaging with the output end of the drive cylinder 106. Direction correction shafts 303 are positioned on both sides of the main mating shaft 302, and are arranged parallel to the main mating shaft 302. During operation, the upper push plate 4 drives the support plate 301 to reciprocate up and down via the drive cylinder 106. Simultaneously, the direction correction shafts 303 positioned on both sides of the main mating shaft 302 improve the movement accuracy of the support plate 301, thus preventing axial displacement of the main mating shaft 302 during prolonged operation, which would affect the horizontal position of the support plate 301 and reduce the transport efficiency of the flatbed car body.

[0023] Furthermore, the main rotating wheel 203 has a groove inside, and the surface of the groove is coated with lubricating oil. The main rotating wheel 203 cooperates with the lower conveying rail, and the groove on the main rotating wheel 203 drives the main car body 3 forward, thereby completing the transportation of the open flatcar body. At the same time, the lubricating oil on the surface of the groove ensures that the main rotating wheel 203 can operate smoothly with the rail, avoiding the phenomenon of jamming during the operation of the device, which would affect the transportation efficiency of the car body.
