Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to cable traction equipment technical field, concretely relates to a motor winch. BACKGROUND
[0002] When erecting overhead high-voltage transmission lines and laying underground cables, it is often necessary to hoist and pull the cable, which requires the use of a motor winch. The existing motor winch includes a support frame, a power mechanism, a clutch module, a speed change module, and a winching device. Winches can be divided into two types according to the transmission method: friction transmission and rigid transmission. Among them, the friction transmission is to transmit the power of the power mechanism to the gearbox through a belt and a pair of size pulleys. This structure has a large size, and often requires manual force to counteract the force of the spring in the clutch to separate the power. The rigid transmission is to engage the clutch driving part on the output shaft of the power mechanism and the clutch driven part on the input shaft of the gearbox through gears. This clutch has a high precision requirement for the device, and due to the hard contact, it has a large noise and a short service life. In addition, the motor winch uses anti-reverse technology to prevent the engine from suddenly stalling during use, causing the heavy object being lifted to lose power and fall down. The existing anti-reverse technology installs a ratchet in the gearbox, but the special structure of the ratchet will make the device emit a clicking noise during operation, and the wear is large.
[0003] The inventor knows a shaft transmission motor winch (patent document number CN105523495A), which adopts a shaft transmission mode. The power claw of the elastic coupling device transmits the motion and power output to the link claw which moves synchronously with it under the action of the friction between the inner taper surface of the large coupling and the outer taper surface of the friction disc. The winch is prevented from reversing by the overrunning brake.
[0004] However, the inventor of the present application found that the above-mentioned technology at least has the following technical problems in the process of implementing the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application:
[0005] Firstly, the clutch of this winch needs to be operated directly by the staff to control the power input, which is not automatic and increases the labor intensity. In addition, the device uses an overrunning brake to prevent the device from reversing, and the overrunning brake not only has a complex structure, but also increases the cost.

[0024] The unit modules (parts, structures, mechanisms) or sensors and other devices involved in the following embodiments are all conventional commercially available products unless otherwise specified.
[0025] The embodiment of the present disclosure aims to solve the problems of large size, short service life and noise caused by the complex structure of the existing winch by providing a motorized winch, using a centrifugal friction clutch in the clutch module to avoid hard contact, achieve smooth power output, and improve the degree of automation.
[0026] The technical solution in the embodiment of the present disclosure is to solve the above problems, and the general idea is as follows:
[0027] The power output by the power mechanism drives the centrifugal flyweight of the centrifugal friction clutch to rotate, so that the centrifugal flyweight contacts the clutch housing, thereby enabling the clutch to output power to the gearbox. A one-way bearing is installed at the input end of the speed change module, so that the input end can only rotate in a fixed direction. The power output from the clutch module drives the gear train assembly of the speed change device to rotate in the set direction, and is transmitted to the output end, thereby driving the winch to rotate, so that the machine can operate normally.
[0028] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present disclosure, the above technical solution will be described in detail below in combination with the drawings in the specification and specific embodiments.
[0029] The present example discloses a motorized winch, referring to Figs. 1 to 3 , comprising a power mechanism 2, which is a gasoline engine. The output shaft 21 of the power mechanism 2 is fixed to the flyweight middle core 41 of the clutch module 4 through a key. The rotating holes of the three centrifugal flyweights 42 are installed on the fixed holes of the flyweight middle core 41, so that the centrifugal flyweights 42 slide along the route specified by the flyweight middle core. There are two side recesses on the centrifugal flyweight 42, and the three centrifugal flyweights 42 can form a complete circle after being combined on the left and right sides. A retractable spring 43 is embedded in each of the two circles to tighten the centrifugal flyweight 42. The centrifugal flyweight 42 has a clutch housing 45 on the outside, and there is a gap between the clutch housing 45 and the centrifugal flyweight 42. Only when the centrifugal flyweight 42 is thrown, can it be combined with the clutch housing 45. Two deep groove ball bearings 44 are statically pressed in the holes of the clutch housing, and their inner holes are fitted on the output shaft of the power mechanism 2 to ensure that the clutch housing and the output shaft of the power mechanism 2 rotate coaxially. The power adjustment mechanism 3 is a control handle installed on the protective cover 46, and there is a soft shaft tension bar with one end installed on the lower side of the control handle and the other end installed on the air door of the engine. The output shaft of the clutch housing 45 is connected in transmission with the input shaft 51 of the speed change module 5 through a shaft coupling 47, and the speed change module output shaft is fixed with the winch input shaft. The power mechanism, clutch module, speed change module and winch described above are all fixed on the support frame 1 by screw connection.
[0030] When working, pull the control handle of the power control device 3, the soft shaft pull rod connected to the lower side of the control handle is pulled tight, the throttle of the gasoline engine of the power mechanism 2 is pulled, the throttle is opened, the engine starts, and the output shaft rotates. The power mechanism output shaft 21 drives the flyweight middle core 41 in the clutch module 4 to rotate, the centrifugal flyweight 42 installed on the flyweight middle core 41 rotates and generates centrifugal force under the action of the centrifugal force. The centrifugal flyweight 42 slides outward along the fixed hole of the flyweight middle core 41. The retraction spring 43 is elastically deformed under the action of the centrifugal flyweight 42, thereby generating a contraction force, which acts on the centrifugal flyweight 42, equivalent to a downward pressure, so that the centrifugal flyweight 42 cannot slide along the fixed hole of the flyweight middle core 41. Until the rotation speed of the flyweight middle core 41 reaches a certain value under the power output by the power mechanism 2, the centrifugal force of the centrifugal flyweight 42 is greater than the downward pressure of the retraction spring 43 on the centrifugal flyweight 42, and the centrifugal flyweight 42 starts to move outward until it is pressed against the inner hole surface of the clutch housing 45. The pressure of the centrifugal flyweight 42 on the clutch housing 45 will generate a friction force between the contact surfaces thereof. When the pressure reaches a certain value, the sliding friction therebetween will change into static friction, and the centrifugal flyweight 42 and the clutch housing 45 will be combined into one, so that the clutch housing 51 rotates with the centrifugal flyweight 42. The output end of the clutch housing 45 is combined with the variable speed module input shaft 51 of the variable speed module 5 through the shaft coupling 47, and drives the variable speed module input shaft 51 to rotate, and the power is transmitted to the gearbox through the single row bearing 52. The power is transmitted to the winch device 6 through the gear train assembly of the gearbox and the output shaft of the variable speed module 5, and drives the weight to rise. Pull the control handle of the power control device 3 again, the throttle of the engine is closed, and the winch stops running.
[0031] When the power mechanism 2 is accidentally turned off, the weight lifted by the winch device 6 has a downward trend under the action of gravity, and drives the winch device to rotate in the opposite direction. After a series of transmissions through the variable speed module 5, the trend of the reverse rotation is transmitted to the variable speed module input shaft 51. Because the one-way bearing 52 is installed on the variable speed module input shaft 51, the trend continues to be transmitted to the power mechanism 2, so that the reverse rotation of the winch cannot be realized, thereby ensuring the safety of workers and facilities during operation.

Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments and all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the present disclosure.

Thus, it is intended that the present disclosure cover the modifications and variations of this disclosure provided they come within the scope of the appended claims and their equivalents.
