However, during use, if a sudden power outage occurs, the attraction force of the electromagnet may instantly disappear, causing the workpiece to separate from the electromagnet and potentially fall from a height, posing a safety hazard.

[0019] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Example

[0020] Please see Figures 1-5 A multi-stage buffer anti-fall safety structure for a crane includes a mounting frame 1. One end of a fixing chain 2 is fixedly connected to the four corners of the bottom of the mounting frame 1. The other end of the fixing chain 2 is fixedly connected to an electromagnet 3. The electromagnet 3 is electrically connected to an external power supply and an external controller. The electromagnet 3 attracts and fixes the metal workpiece to be transported. A drive mechanism 4 is fixedly installed inside the mounting frame 1. Protective frames 5 are symmetrically installed at both ends of the drive mechanism 4. The drive mechanism 4 can drive the protective frames 5 to move. After the electromagnet 3 attracts and fixes the workpiece, the protective frames 5 can protect the workpiece during the hoisting process. In the event of a sudden power failure during hoisting, the protective frames 5 can lift the workpiece to prevent it from falling from a height and causing a safety accident.

[0021] The top of the mounting frame 1 is fixedly equipped with a connecting mechanism 6, and the top of the connecting mechanism 6 is fixedly equipped with a lifting frame 7. Lifting rings 71 are welded and fixed at the four corners of the lifting frame 7. The lifting rings 71 are used to connect with the crane. This utility model is applicable to gantry cranes and is used to lift workpieces to a designated position for storage and sorting. The connecting mechanism 6 can adjust the lifting angle of the lifting device, so that the electromagnet 3 and the protective frame 5 can dock with the workpiece to be lifted.

[0022] like Figure 1As shown, the drive mechanism 4 includes a drive frame 41. There are two drive frames 41, which are symmetrically fixedly mounted on the side wall of the mounting frame 1. The left and right ends of the drive frame 41 are rotatably connected to the top of the protective frame 5. A hydraulic telescopic cylinder 42 is fixedly mounted in the middle of the drive frame 41. The output end of the hydraulic telescopic cylinder 42 passes through the drive frame 41 and is fixedly connected to a lifting arm 43. The left and right ends of the lifting arm 43 are rotatably connected to one end of the drive arm 44. The other end of the drive arm 44 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the protective frame 5. By driving the lifting arm 43 through the hydraulic telescopic cylinder 42, the drive arm 44 can drive the protective frame 5 to rotate at the connection point with the drive frame 41, thereby adjusting the movement of the protective frame 5 and making the protective frame 5 open or close. When the protective frame 5 is open, it is convenient for the electromagnet 3 to be attracted and fixed to the workpiece. When the protective frame 5 is closed, it can protect the workpiece during the hoisting process.

[0023] The mounting bracket 1 is equipped with an oil reservoir 45, which is used to store hydraulic oil. An oil pump 46 is fixedly mounted on the top of the oil reservoir 45. The oil pump 46 is electrically connected to an external power supply and an external controller. The output end of the oil pump 46 is fixedly connected to the input end of the hydraulic telescopic cylinder 42 through a connecting pipe. The oil pump 46 supplies hydraulic oil to the hydraulic telescopic cylinder 42, thereby controlling the movement of the output end of the hydraulic telescopic cylinder 42.

[0024] like Figure 2 As shown, the protective frame 5 includes a fixing block 51. A connecting arm 52 is symmetrically welded to the top of the fixing block 51. The top of the connecting arm 52 is rotatably connected to the end of the drive frame 41. The side wall of the connecting arm 52 is rotatably connected to the end of the drive arm 44. An auxiliary support shaft 53 is welded to the inner side wall of the fixing block 51. The auxiliary support shaft 53 is used to support the falling workpiece. An airbag 54 is sleeved on the outer side wall of the auxiliary support shaft 53. By setting the airbag 54, the workpiece can be buffered during the falling process, so as to avoid the pressure generated by the instantaneous fall of the workpiece causing deformation of the protective frame 5 and affecting subsequent use.

[0025] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the connecting mechanism 6 includes a connecting seat 61, a connecting block 62 welded and fixed to the top of the connecting seat 61, the connecting block 62 welded and fixed to the bottom center of the hoisting frame 7, a rotating block 63 rotatably connected inside the connecting seat 61, the rotating block 63 welded and fixed to the top of the mounting frame 1, a bearing can be installed between the rotating block 63 and the connecting seat 61 to increase the smoothness of the rotation of the rotating block 63 inside the connecting seat 61, pin-type electromagnets 64 are fixedly installed on the left and right side walls of the connecting block 62 respectively, the output end of the pin-type electromagnet 64 is fixedly connected to a positioning pin 65 that penetrates the connecting seat 61, the top of the rotating block 63 is provided with a positioning hole 66 for the positioning pin 65 to be inserted, the positioning pin 65 is inserted into the positioning hole 66 to realize the snap-fit ​​fixation between the rotating block 63 and the connecting seat 61.

[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, the front and rear side walls of the connecting seat 61 are welded and fixed with a first marking block 8, and the side wall of the rotating block 63 is welded and fixed with a second marking block 9. The rotation angle of the rotating block 63 is judged by the first marking block 8 and the second marking block 9. When the positioning hole 66 and the positioning pin 65 are in the matching position, the first marking block 8 and the second marking block 9 coincide.

[0027] Working principle: such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, when using this structure to lift a workpiece, firstly, the lifting frame 7 is connected and fixed to the crane's lifting rope. Then, the present invention is lowered to the lifting position above the workpiece. During lifting, the pin-type electromagnet 64 is first energized and triggered, causing the positioning pin 65 to move upward out of the positioning hole 66. At this time, the rotating block 63 can be rotated in the connecting seat 61 to rotate the electromagnet 3 and the protective frame 5 to an angle matching the workpiece. The workpiece is then attracted and fixed by the electromagnet 3. Then, the hydraulic telescopic cylinder 42 drives the lifting arm 43 to move downward, causing the protective frame 5 to retract from both sides. The auxiliary support shaft 53 of the protective frame 5 is inserted into the workpiece. Inside, the crane first lifts the workpiece slightly upwards. After the workpiece leaves the ground, the worker holds the protective frame 5 and rotates the rotating block 63 so that the second marker block 9 corresponds to the position of the first marker block 8. Then, the power to the pin-type electromagnet 64 is cut off. At this time, the positioning pin 65 is inserted into the positioning hole 66 to limit and fix the angle position between the rotating block 63 and the connecting seat 61. The workpiece is then hoisted. During the hoisting process, the multi-level buffer composed of the protective frame 5 and the airbag 54 can fully protect the workpiece and prevent it from falling in the air after the electromagnet 3 is suddenly de-energized, thus avoiding safety hazards.
