Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of elevator safety components, and in particular relates to a guide device for elevator traveling cables. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of national marine resources and the continuous advancement of marine technology, more and more large ships are sailing in the open ocean and inland waterways, giving rise to marine elevators. Based on their installation location within the ship and their function, marine elevators can be broadly classified into the following categories: passenger elevators, crew elevators, cargo elevators, dumbwaiters, and medical elevators, primarily used for transporting personnel and goods. While the functions and requirements of different types of marine elevators vary, their basic structural layouts are similar.

[0003] Since marine elevators are installed not on fixed buildings but inside the hull of a moving ship, and the ship experiences rolling, pitching, or heaving during navigation and operation, the elevator cables move up and down with the elevator. In this swaying environment, they are very likely to snag on other components in the elevator shaft, causing damage to the elevator cables and other elevator parts. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a guiding device for elevator traveling cables, which is proposed to address the problem that, since the installation carrier of marine elevators is not a fixed building but is located inside the hull of a moving ship, and the ship experiences rolling, pitching, or heaving during navigation and operation, the elevator cables, which travel up and down with the elevator, are very prone to getting caught on other components in the elevator shaft during the swaying environment, causing damage to the elevator cables and other elevator components.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a guiding device for elevator traveling cables, comprising:

[0006] A track fixing base is provided with an H-shaped track, and a cable limiting plate is connected to the track fixing base;

[0007] A roller guide shoe is tactilely connected to the H-shaped track, the roller guide shoe is connected to the roller guide shoe seat, and the roller guide shoe seat is connected to the fixed plate;

[0008] A cable guide wheel is connected to the fixed plate, and a traveling flat cable is sleeved inside the cable guide wheel.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0010] A connecting shaft is provided on the fixed plate, and the cable guide wheel is rotatably connected to the connecting shaft.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0012] The guardrail is attached to the fixed plate and is located outside the cable guide wheel.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0014] The cable limiting plate is located on the outside of the guardrail.

[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0016] A limiting rod is provided on the cable limiting plate, and the limiting rod is located on the outside of the guardrail plate.

[0017] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] 1. In this utility model, one end of the traveling flat cable is fixed in the middle of the shaft (fixed end), and the other end is fixed on the side of the car (moving end). The traveling flat cable is kept in a natural hanging state by its own weight through the cable guide device. The roller guide shoe rolls on the H-shaped track, so that the cable guide device moves up and down along the H-shaped track in a swaying and oscillating environment, and ensures that the cable traveling device does not fall off the H-shaped track. The guardrail ensures that the cable is always inside the cable guide wheel. The cable limiting plate is installed at about 3 meters in the shaft to ensure the swing range of the cable in the swaying and oscillating environment. The cable limiting rod is fixed on the cable limiting plate to ensure that the cable swings within a fixed range. This guide device can effectively prevent the traveling cable from being damaged due to the swaying and oscillation of the marine elevator, thereby preventing safety hazards to the elevator and ensuring the safe and normal operation of the elevator.

[0019] 2. In this utility model, the connection of the inner opening of the H-shaped track is welded and then ground to ensure the overall strength of the guide rail. Attached Figure Description
