Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model specifically relates to the field of detection device technology, and more specifically to a mine hoist anti-fall device. Background Technology
[0002] Mine hoists are key pieces of equipment in mine production, used to lift and lower personnel, ore, materials, etc. Safety is paramount during the operation of mine hoists.
[0003] Mining environments are complex and contain numerous hazards. During operation, the hoisting container may unexpectedly fall due to factors such as wire rope breakage, braking system failure, or damage to connecting devices. Such a fall could result in serious casualties and property damage.
[0004] Early mine hoist fall arrestors had several shortcomings. While traditional toothed fall arrestors could provide some fall protection, they had drawbacks in practical application. For example, excessively rapid deceleration could cause secondary damage to the wire rope or the rope-holding drum. Furthermore, if the connection between the drive motor and the rope-holding drum broke, simply waiting for repairs or using an additional emergency motor to lift the load was insufficient to address the uncertainty of the wire rope's safety, leaving the risk of a secondary fall. Additionally, some fall arrestors lacked adequate triggering conditions. For instance, if the winch drum brake was only partially faulty, leaving some braking force but insufficient to brake the hoisting container, traditional fall arrestors might fail to trigger in time, resulting in a failure of the braking and fall prevention process.

[0035] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0036] Please see Figure 1-8 In this embodiment of the utility model, a mine hoist anti-fall device includes a hoist body 1, an anti-fall device 2 is installed on the hoist body 1, and an outer protective device 3 is provided on the outside of the hoist body 1 and the anti-fall device 2.
[0037] The fall arrestor 2 includes a winch 21, which is fixedly mounted on a winch mounting frame 14. The lower end of the wire rope of the winch 21 is fixedly connected to the top of the sliding rod 22. Both the upper and lower ends of the sliding rod 22 are provided with limit rings 23. The lower limit ring 23 is connected to the lower surface of the bracket 24. The sliding rod 22 is slidably connected to the bracket 24.
[0038] The bracket 24 is symmetrically provided with a slide 25 on one side. The symmetrically provided slide 25 is slidably connected to the hopper trolley 26. The upper surface of the bracket 24 is symmetrically provided with auxiliary pulley plates 27, and the lower surface is symmetrically provided with connecting seats 28.
[0039] The bottom of the sliding rod 22 is rotatably connected to the L-rotating frame 29, the L-rotating frames 29 are symmetrically arranged, and the ends of the two L-rotating frames 29 are rotatably connected to the bottom of the sliding rod 22.
[0040] The L-shaped rotating frame 29 is rotatably connected to the inside of the connecting seat 28 at its corner, and the other end of the L-shaped rotating frame 29 is fixedly connected to the locking block 210.
[0041] By adopting the above technical solution, the fall arrestor 2 has multiple triggering conditions such as rapid fall and wire rope breakage. No matter what causes the lifting container to lose control, the sliding rod 22 can respond quickly and drive the L rotating frame 29 to make the locking block 210 engage with the locking slot 111 quickly. Compared with the traditional fall arrestor with a single triggering method, it greatly shortens the time from the occurrence of the accident to the start of the fall arrest action, effectively avoiding or reducing the harm caused by the fall accident.
[0042] In this embodiment, the winch mounting frame 14 is fixedly installed on the upper surface of the lifting frame 11. Guide rails 12 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the lifting frame 11, and two sets of limiting devices 13 are symmetrically arranged on one side of the lifting frame 11.
[0043] A motor 15 is installed on one side of the lifting frame 11. The end of the motor 15 is connected to the gear drive shaft 16. The gear drive shaft 16 is symmetrically installed on the inner side of the lifting frame 11. The gears at the left and right ends of the symmetrically arranged gear drive shaft 16 are meshed with the gear chain 17. The gear chain 17 is symmetrically arranged on the inner side of the lifting frame 11.
[0044] The toothed chain 17, which is symmetrically arranged on the left and right, is also meshed with a gear 18. The gear 18 is installed on one side of the pulley plate 19, the pulley plate 19 is slidably connected to the guide rail 12, and the other side of the pulley plate 19 is connected to the fixed shaft 110.
[0045] The gear 18 and pulley plate 19 are symmetrically installed at both ends of the fixed shaft 110, and the fixed shaft 110 is fixedly connected to the symmetrically arranged slide 25; the outer side of the symmetrically arranged auxiliary pulley plate 27 is fixedly connected to the symmetrically arranged pulley plate 19, and the auxiliary pulley plate 27 is slidably connected to the guide rail 12 on one side of the lifting frame 11.
[0046] The inner side of the lifting frame 11 is provided with a rectangular array of slots 111 arranged symmetrically. When a fall occurs, the slots 111 are connected to the block 210.
[0047] The lifting frame 11 is provided with an outer frame 31 on the outside, and wire mesh 32 is installed on the three sides of the lower end of the outer frame 31.
[0048] By adopting the above technical solution, the fall arrestor 3 not only relies on the direct braking of the sliding rod 22, L-rotating frame 29 and locking block 210, but also the transmission components such as motor 15, gear transmission shaft 16, gear chain 17, and gear 18 participate in the fall arrest process. When a fall occurs, the transmission system can use its own inertia and torque to slow down the falling speed of the lifting container to a certain extent. It works in conjunction with the mechanical braking of locking block 210 and locking slot 111 to form a multi-stage braking system, which improves the reliability and braking effect of the fall arrest and reduces the risk of fall arrest failure due to the failure of a single component.
[0049] The limiting ring 23 in the device can limit the movement range of the sliding rod 22 and prevent it from moving excessively; the symmetrically arranged slide 25, auxiliary pulley plate 27 and other structures not only enhance the overall stability of the device, but also cooperate with the guide rail 12 to ensure the stability of the lifting container's running trajectory during normal operation and fall prevention; the outer frame 31 and wire mesh 32 of the outer protection device 3 can prevent materials from falling and injuring people during the lifting process and ensure the safety of ground operations.
[0050] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the mine hoist is operating normally, the motor 15 starts, and the gear drive shaft 16 at its end starts to rotate. The gears at the left and right ends of the gear drive shaft 16, which is symmetrically installed, mesh with the gear chain 17, driving the gear chain 17 to rotate cyclically. The gear chain 17 also meshes with the gear 18 installed on one side of the pulley plate 19, causing the gear 18 to rotate, thereby driving the pulley plate 19 to slide up and down along the guide rail 12. The pulley plate 19 is connected to the slide frame 25 through the fixed shaft 110. The slide frame 25 is slidably connected to the hopper trolley 26, ultimately realizing the smooth lifting and lowering of the hopper trolley 26.
[0051] At the same time, the winch 21 is in a taut state, and the sliding rod 22 connected to the lower end of its wire rope is pressed against the lower surface of the bracket 24 by the limiting ring 23 at the lower end of the sliding rod 22 under the action of the wire rope tension. At this time, the sliding rod 22 remains stationary relative to the bracket 24, the L-shaped rotating frame 29 at the bottom of the sliding rod 22 does not rotate, the locking block 210 is separated from the locking groove 111 on the inner side of the lifting frame 11, and the anti-fall device 2 does not participate in the normal lifting and lowering action of the hoist, but is only in a standby state.
[0052] In the event of a sudden and rapid fall or a breakage of the wire rope of the winch 21, the anti-fall function of the device is immediately activated. Under the action of gravity, the sliding rod 22 loses the tension of the wire rope and begins to move rapidly downward along the inside of the bracket 24. As the sliding rod 22 moves downward, the limiting ring 23 at its upper end contacts and collides with the upper surface of the bracket 24. The obstruction of the limiting ring 23 causes the downward movement of the sliding rod 22 to drive the L-shaped rotating frame 29 at its bottom to rotate.
[0053] Because the L-shaped rotating frame 29 is rotatably connected to the inside of the connecting seat 28 at the corner, and the other end is fixedly connected to the locking block 210, the rotation of the L-shaped rotating frame 29 drives the locking block 210 to rotate synchronously, so that the locking block 210 quickly engages with the locking slots 111 arranged in a rectangular array on the inner side of the lifting frame 11. After the locking block 210 and the locking slots 111 are tightly engaged, they immediately stop the bracket 24 and the hopper trolley 26 connected to the bracket 24, thereby preventing the lifting container from continuing to fall and realizing the anti-fall function. In addition, the transmission components such as the motor 15, gear drive shaft 16, gear chain 17, and gear 18 can use their own inertia and torque to slow down the falling speed of the lifting container to a certain extent at the moment of anti-fall, which works in conjunction with the mechanical braking of the locking block 210 and the locking slots 111 to further enhance the anti-fall effect.
[0054] The fall arrestor 3 not only relies on the direct braking of the sliding rod 22, L-rotating frame 29 and locking block 210, but also the transmission components such as motor 15, gear drive shaft 16, gear chain 17 and gear 18 participate in the fall arrest process. When a fall occurs, the transmission system can use its own inertia and torque to slow down the falling speed of the lifting container to a certain extent. It works in conjunction with the mechanical braking of locking block 210 and locking slot 111 to form a multi-stage braking system, which improves the reliability and braking effect of the fall arrest and reduces the risk of fall arrest failure due to the failure of a single component.
[0055] The fall arrestor 2 has multiple triggering conditions such as rapid fall and wire rope breakage. No matter what causes the lifting container to go out of control, the sliding rod 22 can respond quickly and drive the L rotating frame 29 to make the locking block 210 engage with the locking slot 111 quickly. Compared with the traditional fall arrestor with a single triggering method, it greatly shortens the time from the occurrence of the accident to the start of the fall arrest action, effectively avoiding or reducing the harm caused by the fall accident.
[0056] The limiting ring 23 in the device can limit the movement range of the sliding rod 22 and prevent it from moving excessively; the symmetrically arranged slide 25, auxiliary pulley plate 27 and other structures not only enhance the overall stability of the device, but also cooperate with the guide rail 12 to ensure the stability of the lifting container's running trajectory during normal operation and fall prevention; the outer frame 31 and wire mesh 32 of the outer protection device 3 can prevent materials from falling and injuring people during the lifting process and ensure the safety of ground operations.
