[0037] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0038] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model is a trolley traveling mechanism applied to a crane, including a trolley body 1:
[0039] A movable structure 2 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the vehicle body 1. The movable structure 2 includes a first fixed column 201, a second fixed column 202, a third fixed column 203, and a connecting bottom column 204.
[0040] Fixed column 1 201 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the connecting plate, fixed column 202 is fixedly connected to the lower side of fixed column 1 201, fixed column 3 203 is fixedly connected to the lower side of fixed column 2 202, and connecting bottom column 204 is fixedly installed on the lower side of fixed column 3 203.
[0041] Fixed column 1 201, fixed column 2 202, and fixed column 3 203 are connected in sequence to provide stable support and transmit force.
[0042] The movable structure 2 also includes a connecting shaft 205, a connecting column 206, and a connecting column 207;
[0043] Connecting shaft 1 205 is movably connected to the inner cavity of connecting base post 204, connecting post 1 206 is movably connected to the outer side of connecting shaft 1 205, and connecting post 2 207 is movably connected to the inner side of connecting post 1 206.
[0044] The connecting shaft 205 is movably connected to the inner cavity of the connecting column 204, allowing the connecting column 206 to rotate within a certain range around the connecting shaft 205. This rotating structure design allows the connecting column 206 to flexibly adjust its angle according to road conditions or steering requirements during crane movement.
[0045] The movable structure 2 also includes a connecting shaft 208 and a moving wheel 209;
[0046] Connecting shaft 208 is movably connected to one side of connecting column 207, and movable wheel 209 is movably connected to one side of connecting shaft 208.
[0047] The second connecting shaft 208 is movably connected to one side of the second connecting column 207, providing a shaft support for the rotation of the moving wheel 209.
[0048] The movable structure 2 also includes a connecting column 210, a driving column 211, an adjusting column 212, and a connecting shaft 213;
[0049] Connecting column 3 210 is fixedly connected to the inner side of connecting column 1 206, driving column 211 is fixedly connected to the outer side of connecting column 3 210, adjusting column 212 is movably connected to one side of driving column 211, and connecting shaft 3 213 is movably connected to the inner cavity of adjusting column 212.
[0050] The adjusting column 212 is connected to the fixed column 203 via the connecting shaft 213, and the connecting shaft 213 is fixedly installed on one side of the fixed column 203.
[0051] When the moving wheel 209 encounters a bump or a depression, the adjusting column 212 will rotate accordingly through the connecting shaft 213 under the action of the driving column 211 to maintain good contact between the moving wheel 209 and the ground and improve the stability of the crane's movement.
[0052] The moving structure 2 also includes a helical spring 214;
[0053] The helical spring 214 is fixedly installed on one side of the adjusting column 212;
[0054] Adjustment pins 212 are respectively set on both sides of the helical spring 214.
[0055] When the external force disappears, the helical spring 214 will push the adjusting column 212 back to its original position by its own elastic restoring force, so that the moving wheel 209 is kept in a suitable working state and the crane is kept running stably.
[0056] Working principle: Connecting column 3 210 is fixedly connected to the inner side of connecting column 1 206, driving column 211 is fixedly connected to the outer side of connecting column 3 210, adjusting column 212 is movably connected to one side of driving column 211 and connected to fixed column 3 203 through connecting shaft 3 213, and helical spring 214 is set on one side of adjusting column 212. When the device encounters terrain with large undulations, adjusting column 212 will move along connecting shaft 3 213 under the elastic action of helical spring 214. When encountering raised ground, adjusting column 212 is subjected to an upward force, which will compress helical spring 214 and move upward. When encountering concave ground, helical spring 214 will extend and push adjusting column 212 downward, thereby ensuring the smooth movement of vehicle body 1 and reducing the impact of terrain changes on the device.
[0057] This step, through the setting of the moving structure 2, offers several advantages. Its stable architecture, with its multi-layered fixed column connection, ensures a secure connection between the vehicle body 1 and the moving components, evenly distributing weight and improving driving stability.
[0058] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment, based on the above embodiment, further includes an adjustment structure 3.
[0059] An adjustment structure 3 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the vehicle body 1. The adjustment structure 3 includes a cylinder 301, a telescopic column 302, a connecting column 303, and a support plate 304.
[0060] Cylinder 301 is fixedly connected to the upper side of vehicle body 1, telescopic column 302 is movably connected to the inner side of cylinder 301, connecting column 303 is fixedly connected to one end of telescopic column 302, and bearing plate 304 is fixedly connected to one side of connecting column 303.
[0061] The support plate 304 is movably connected to the vehicle body 1.
[0062] The support plate 304 is movably connected to the vehicle body 1 through a guide rail structure, which ensures the stability and smoothness of the support plate 304 during its up-and-down movement.
[0063] The adjustment structure 3 also includes cylinder 2 305, telescopic column 2 306, connecting column 5 307 and bearing plate 2 308;
[0064] Cylinder 2 305 is fixedly connected to the upper side of bearing plate 1 304, telescopic column 2 306 is movably connected to the inner side of cylinder 2 305, connecting column 5 307 is fixedly connected to one end of telescopic column 2 306, and bearing plate 2 308 is fixedly connected to one side of connecting column 5 307.
[0065] The second support plate 308 is movably connected to the upper side of the first support plate 304.
[0066] A guide rail is installed on the first carrier plate 304 to enable the second carrier plate 308 to move flexibly and make fine adjustments to its angle on the first carrier plate 304.
[0067] Working principle: When cylinder 1 (301) is activated, telescopic column 1 (302) extends and retracts inside cylinder 1 (301). The extension and retraction of telescopic column 1 (302) drives connecting column 4 (303) to move, which in turn causes the bearing plate 1 (304) fixed to one side of connecting column 4 (303) to move on the upper side of vehicle body 1. When cylinder 2 (305) is activated, telescopic column 2 (306) extends and retracts inside cylinder 2 (305). The extension and retraction of telescopic column 2 (306) is transmitted to bearing plate 2 (308) through connecting column 5 (307). Bearing plate 2 (308) is movably connected to bearing plate 1 (304) and can flexibly follow telescopic column 2 (306) to move simultaneously. By extending and retracting the bearing plate, the size and length of the bearing plate can be adjusted, lowering the overall center of gravity of the crane. When vehicle body 1 turns, the lower center of gravity reduces the influence of centrifugal force, making the turning process more stable and reducing the possibility of the crane tipping over during turns, thus improving operational safety.
