Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a coal mine electromechanical system, and more particularly to a bearing end cover lifting-free device. Background Technology

[0002] When changing the grease in the auxiliary shaft sheave bearing, it is necessary to open the bearing end cover. Due to the limitations of the sheave platform, it is impossible to set up a reliable and convenient manual hoist lifting point. Even if a manual hoist could be used to disassemble such a large bearing end cover as the hoist sheave, it would waste a lot of time on removing, hanging, and operating the hoist, and the lifting operation during the process would pose significant safety hazards, potentially leading to a production accident. Furthermore, the existing adjustable bearing end cover support device cannot support such a large bearing end cover, and is prone to breakage, causing an accident.

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0032] Example 1:

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the bearing end cover lifting-free device includes a bracket 1 and screws 2; the bracket 1 includes multiple first holes 111 and multiple second holes 121 in the horizontal direction, the multiple first holes 111 are arranged in a circle, and the multiple second holes 121 are arranged in a circle; the hole positions of the first holes 111 and the second holes 121 correspond to the hole positions of the bearing end cover 4; at least two screws 2 are simultaneously connected to the first holes 111, or at least two screws 2 are simultaneously connected to the second holes 121.

[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, the support 1 includes two uprights 11, two crossbars 12, and a base 13. The two uprights 11 are vertically parallel and spaced apart on the base 13, and the two crossbars 12 are horizontally parallel and spaced apart on the two uprights 11. In this embodiment, the uprights 11 and crossbars 12 are made of #8 channel steel, the base 13 is made of #14 channel steel, and the uprights 11 and crossbars 12, as well as the uprights 11 and base 13, are all connected by welding.

[0035] Since the column 11 includes multiple first holes 111 and the crossbar 12 includes multiple second holes 121, and the first holes 111 and second holes 121 are located on circumferences of different diameters, the length of the column 11 is designed to correspond as closely as possible to the height of the bearing end cap 4 to be disassembled. The welding position of the crossbar 12 is also designed so that the second holes 121 correspond to the holes on the bearing end cap 4. The different diameters of the first holes 111 and second holes 121 allow for the assembly and disassembly of bearing end caps 4 of two different sizes.

[0036] Both the first hole 111 and the second hole 121 are oblong holes. The direction of the oblong hole can be vertical or horizontal. The oblong hole allows the screw 2 to be connected to the bearing screw hole of the end cover more flexibly, avoiding the problem of the screw 2 and the hole on the bearing body 3 being misaligned and unable to be connected or unreliable in the case of round holes.

[0037] In this embodiment, there are four first holes 111, located at the upper left, lower left, upper right, and lower right positions respectively; and four second holes 121, located at the upper left, lower left, upper right, and lower right positions respectively. These correspond to the four screw holes on the bearing end cover 4 located in the northeast, northwest, southwest, and southeast directions. At least two first holes 111 or two second holes 121 are required, and these two holes should be aligned as closely as possible with the holes on the upper part of the bearing end cover 4 to ensure proper support of the bearing end cover 4.

[0038] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the requirement for the first hole 111 to correspond with the hole on the bearing end cover 4 is that the screw can reliably connect with the threaded hole on the bearing body 3 after passing through the first hole 111.

[0039] This embodiment only provides two sets of hole positions. A third hole and multiple sets of hole positions can be opened as needed.

[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, the screw 2 has threaded sections at both ends and a smooth section in the middle. One end of the screw 2 is connected to a limiting nut 21, which is used to limit the screw 2 on the bracket 1. The threads of the screw 2 match the threads of the bearing end cap 4 and the bearing body 3. In this embodiment, the total length of the screw 2 is at least 1000mm, the threaded sections at both ends are at least 100mm long, the diameter of the smooth section in the middle is greater than 20mm, and the threaded sections at both ends are coarse threads with a diameter of 20mm.

[0041] In this embodiment, there are four first holes 111 and four second holes 121, which can satisfy the simultaneous use of four screws 2.

[0042] like Figure 3As shown, assuming that the hole position on the bearing end cap 4 corresponds to the first hole 111, then in this embodiment only the first hole 111 is used and the second hole 121 is not used; similarly, if the size of the bearing end cap 4 corresponds to the second hole 121, then only the second hole 121 is used. In this embodiment, the bearing body 3 is vertically positioned, and the bearing end cover 4 is placed vertically. First, remove the screws on the bearing end cover 4 corresponding to the first hole 111. Set up the bracket 1 according to the site conditions. The bracket 1 is located in front of the bearing end cover 4 and is placed at intervals. Pass the screw 2 through the first hole 111 on the bracket and screw the screw 2 into the hole on the bearing end cover 4 where the screws were removed. Then remove the remaining screws on the bearing end cover 4. Use a tool to pry open the bearing end cover 4 and check whether the connection between the bracket 1, the screw 2 and the bearing end cover 4 is reliable. Then pull the bearing end cover 4 outward along the screw 2. At this time, the smooth part of the screw 2 can provide temporary support for the bearing end cover 4. Replace the grease on the bearing body 3. After the replacement is completed, put the bearing end cover 4 back on the bearing body 3 along the screw 2. First, install the screws in the screw holes that are not connected to the screw, then remove the screw 2 and install the screws in the remaining holes.

[0043] This embodiment safely and quickly completes the disassembly and installation of the large bearing end cover 4 without lifting operations. The device has a simple structure, is easy to process, and is convenient and quick to operate, saving a lot of working time. At the same time, it eliminates the safety hazards of lifting operations and ensures safe production.

[0044] Example 2:

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, extension frames 14 are connected to both sides of the base 13. Reinforcing ribs 15 are also connected between the extension frames 14 and the support 1.

[0046] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
