[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Combination Figures 1-5 As shown, the tower crane luffing trolley safety protection structure 100 includes a luffing trolley 101 slidably arranged along the boom 200. Two luffing trolleys 101 are arranged side by side. Each luffing trolley 101 includes a connecting bracket 102. The connecting bracket 102 includes vertical connecting rods 103 arranged opposite to each other on the outer side of the two lower chords 201 of the boom 200. A first roller 104 is installed on the inner side of the vertical connecting rod 103. The first roller 104 rolls on the top surface of the lower chord 201. A safety plate 105 is provided on one side of the vertical connecting rod 103. The safety plate 105 protrudes above the lower chord 201. A gap space 106 is formed between the safety plate 105 and the top surface of the lower chord 201.
[0022] In this embodiment, since the four vertical connecting rods are located on the outside of the lower chord and the first roller is located on the inside of the vertical connecting rods, the safety of the trolley is basically guaranteed. Secondly, when the pin of the first roller breaks, even if the roller comes out, the safety plate will immediately support the lower chord, and the trolley will not overturn. The gap between the safety plate and the lower chord can prevent interference with the rolling of the first roller. However, the gap is small, so when the roller pin breaks, it immediately provides support and prevents the trolley from overturning.
[0023] Furthermore, the safety plate 105 is inserted into the lug 107 formed in the vertical connecting rod 103, and a cotter pin 108 is provided on one side of the safety plate 105.
[0024] In this embodiment, the safety plate is prevented from coming off.
[0025] Furthermore, a dust cover 109 is provided on the outer side of the first roller 104, and a gap is formed between the dust cover 109 and the first roller 104. The first roller 104 is mounted on the pin 111 via the bearing 110, and the pin 111 is mounted on the vertical connecting rod 103.
[0026] In this embodiment, the first function is to prevent dust. Secondly, when the bearing breaks, the first roller cannot be dislodged due to the presence of the dust cover, thus ensuring that the first roller is always supported on the lower chord, ensuring safety and preventing overturning.
[0027] Furthermore, on the opposite sides of the two vertical connecting rods 103 on the same side, a second roller 112 is installed, and the second roller 112 rolls on the outer side of the lower chord 201.
[0028] In this embodiment, the overall stability of the structure is ensured, and the smoothness of the trolley's movement is improved.
[0029] Furthermore, the second roller 112 is mounted on the horizontal connecting rod 113, which is mounted between two vertical connecting rods 103 on the same side. A protective shell 114 is provided on the outer side of the second roller 112.
[0030] In this embodiment, the overall stability of the vehicle is improved.
[0031] Furthermore, the two luffing trolleys 101 are suspended by a pulley block 116 via a steel wire rope 115, and a hook 117 is provided below the pulley block 116.
[0032] In this embodiment, the basic functions of the luffing trolley are implemented.
[0033] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.
[0034] The above description is only a specific embodiment of this application. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this application, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this application.
