[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0019] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0020] This utility model provides a bridge crane with impact resistance function, which includes: two opposing main beams 1; end beams 11 are installed at both ends of the two main beams 1, and support plates 12 are installed on the relatively close side of the two end beams 11; wherein, shock-absorbing components are installed at the top and bottom of the relatively close side of the two support plates 12, and the shock-absorbing components can absorb the impact generated by the trolley during operation; buffer components are provided on both sides of the shock-absorbing components on the two support plates 12, and the buffer components can further attenuate the impact energy and reduce the impact on the crane structure.

[0021] It should be noted that: the main beam 1, as the primary load-bearing structure of the bridge crane, supports the crane's trolley, hoisting mechanism, and other auxiliary equipment, while also bearing the weight of the hoisted goods and the horizontal load generated during trolley operation. The end beam 11 connects two opposing main beams 1, forming the crane's bridge frame to ensure structural stability; it also provides the mounting foundation for the support plate 12, vibration damping components, and buffer components. The support plate 12 is fixed to the inner side of the end beam 11, providing mounting positions for the vibration damping components and buffer components. The vibration damping components are located at the top and bottom of the two support plates 12 on the relatively close side, absorbing the impact energy during trolley operation and reducing vibration amplitude. The buffer components are located on both sides of the vibration damping components on the support plate 12, supplementing the vibration damping components, further dissipating impact energy and improving the stability of the impact resistance effect.

[0022] In an embodiment of this utility model, the shock absorption assembly includes two shock absorption mounting plates 2 mounted on the support plate 12, and the two shock absorption mounting plates 2 are arranged opposite to each other. The side of the two shock absorption mounting plates 2 closest to the support plate 12 is connected to a guide rail 21. Two shock absorption sliders 22 are slidably connected to the guide rail 21. The side of the two shock absorption sliders 22 closest to the shock absorption mounting plates 2 are slidably connected to the shock absorption mounting plates 2. The side of the two shock absorption sliders 22 furthest from the support plate 12 is connected to a shock absorption rod 23. The side of the two shock absorption rods 23 furthest from the shock absorption sliders 22 is connected to a shock absorption buffer plate 24. The side of the two shock absorption sliders 22 furthest from each other is connected to a damper 25. The side of the two dampers 25 furthest from each other is connected to the shock absorption mounting plates 2. The side of the shock absorption buffer plate 24 furthest from the support plate 12 is connected to a shock absorption buffer pad 26.

[0023] It should be noted that: the damping mounting plates 2 are mounted opposite each other on the support plate 12, forming the support frame of the damping assembly. The guide rail 21 connects the two damping mounting plates 2 laterally and is located on the side closer to the support plate 12. Its surface has grooves to provide a linear sliding track for the damping slider 22, limiting its direction of movement. The damping slider 22 is slidably connected to the guide rail 21, one on each side, and can move laterally along the rail. One end of the damping rod 23 is connected to the damping slider 22, and the other end is connected to the damping buffer plate 24, transferring the impact load borne by the damping buffer plate 24 to the damping slider 22. One end of the damper 25 is connected to the damping slider 22, and the other end is fixed to the damping mounting plate 2. When the damping slider 22 is impacted and slides, the damper 25 is compressed or stretched, absorbing energy through elastic deformation. At the same time, the damping medium generates viscous resistance to dissipate energy. The shock-absorbing buffer pad 26 is fixed to the surface of the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24 away from the support plate 12. It is made of elastic materials such as polyurethane. When it collides with the car, it first absorbs part of the energy through elastic deformation, reducing the peak value of the instantaneous impact force.

[0024] In an embodiment of this utility model, the buffer assembly includes two buffer mounting plates 3 connected to one side of the support plate 12, and the two buffer mounting plates 3 are arranged opposite to each other. A guide slide rod 31 is connected between the two buffer mounting plates 3. Buffer sliders 32 are slidably connected to both outer ends of the guide slide rod 31. Buffer rods 33 are connected to the side of the two buffer sliders 32 away from the support plate 12. The side of the two buffer rods 33 away from the buffer sliders 32 is connected to the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24. Buffer springs 34 are sleeved on both outer ends of the two guide slide rods 31, and the buffer springs 34 are located between the buffer sliders 32 and the buffer mounting plates 3.

[0025] It should be noted that: the buffer mounting plates 3 are installed opposite each other on the left and right sides of the support plate 12, the guide slide rod 31 is installed between the two buffer mounting plates 3, and the buffer slider 32 is slidably sleeved on the outer ends of the guide slide rod 31, serving as an intermediate carrier for impact transmission. The impact force of the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24 is transmitted to the buffer spring 34 through the buffer rod 33. One end of the buffer rod 33 is connected to the buffer slider 32, and the other end is fixed to the side of the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24, arranged vertically, connecting the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24 and the buffer slider 32 to transmit the impact load. The buffer spring 34 is sleeved on the outside of the guide slide rod 31, located between the buffer slider 32 and the buffer mounting plate 3, with both ends abutting against the buffer slider 32 and the buffer mounting plate 3 respectively. When the buffer slider 32 is impacted and slides outward, the buffer spring 34 is compressed, absorbing energy through elastic deformation; after the impact disappears, the spring slowly rebounds, avoiding a sudden release of energy and secondary impact. The dampers 25 complement each other: the dampers 25 in the shock absorption assembly mainly consume high-frequency vibration energy, while the buffer spring 34 is better at absorbing low-frequency large displacement impacts. The combination of the two covers the entire frequency range of impact loads.

[0026] In the embodiments of this utility model, the four corners of the support plate 12 and the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24 are connected to telescopic rods 4 on the side closest to each other, and a return spring 41 is sleeved on the outside of each telescopic rod 4.

[0027] It should be noted that the telescopic rods 4 are installed at the four corners of the support plate 12 and the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24, respectively, and are capable of telescopic movement. They consist of inner and outer sleeves, with the inner sleeve sliding within the outer sleeve to achieve the telescopic function. Return springs 41 are sleeved on the outside of each telescopic rod 4, with both ends connected to the support plate 12 and the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24, respectively. The telescopic rods 4 limit the movement trajectory of the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24. When the trolley experiences an impact, the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24 will displace under the impact. The telescopic rods 4 ensure that the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24 moves smoothly along the axial direction of the telescopic rods, preventing it from swaying, tilting, or shifting, thus ensuring the stable operation of the entire shock absorption and buffering system. The return springs 41 have a buffering and energy-absorbing function. When impacted, the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24 moves towards the support plate 12, at which point the return spring 41 is compressed. During this process, the spring converts the kinetic energy of the impact into elastic potential energy and stores it, thereby reducing the impact on the crane structure.

[0028] The working principle of the bridge crane with impact protection function provided by this utility model is as follows: When the trolley of the bridge crane experiences an impact (such as starting, stopping, or collision), the impact force first acts on the shock-absorbing buffer pad 26 on the outside of the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24. Its elastic material absorbs part of the energy through deformation, reducing the peak impact value. Subsequently, the impact force is transmitted to the shock-absorbing slider 22 through the shock-absorbing rod 23, driving it to slide to both sides along the guide rail 21, compressing the damper 25. The damper 25, through the dual action of its internal elastic element and viscous medium, converts kinetic energy into heat energy and elastic potential energy, consuming energy. At the same time, the lateral displacement of the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24 is transmitted to the buffer slider 32 through the buffer rod 33, causing it to slide to the outside along the guide rail 31, compressing the buffer spring 34. The buffer spring 34 absorbs the remaining impact energy through elastic deformation and slowly rebounds when the impact weakens, avoiding a sudden release of energy. During this process, the telescopic rod 4 restricts the movement direction of the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24 to ensure its smooth axial movement and prevent deviation; the return spring 41 is compressed simultaneously to store elastic potential energy, and pushes the shock-absorbing buffer plate 24 to reset after the impact disappears, so that the whole system returns to its initial state.

[0029] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
