Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lifting equipment technology, and in particular to a multi-functional lifting device for kiln maintenance. Background Technology
[0002] A kiln is a piece of equipment used to produce materials such as ceramics, bricks, lime, and glass. It typically processes and shapes raw materials through high-temperature firing. After prolonged use, various parts of the kiln may wear out or age, requiring repair or replacement. Due to the height of the kiln, lifting equipment is needed to assist maintenance personnel in carrying out repairs.
[0003] Chinese patent discloses a lifting device (authorization announcement number CN221370423U), which includes a carrying platform, a support platform, and an adjusting assembly. The carrying platform is used to carry materials. The support platform is located below the carrying platform. The adjusting assembly includes an adjusting bolt, an adjusting nut, and an elastic element. The adjusting bolt passes through the carrying platform and the support platform along the height direction of the lifting device. The adjusting nut engages with the adjusting bolt and is located below the support platform. The elastic element is sleeved on the adjusting bolt and is located between the carrying platform and the support platform. According to this invention, the height of the carrying platform can be precisely adjusted without the need for electronic equipment control; it can be achieved through manual operation, saving significant costs.

[0047] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0048] Example 1
[0049] Please see Figures 1-8 As shown, this embodiment is a multi-functional lifting device for kiln maintenance, including,
[0050] The lifting structure 100 includes a frame 101, a lifting basket 102 located above the frame 101, a hydraulic rod 105 fixed at one end of the frame 101, a fixed seat 104 fixed at the lower end of the hydraulic rod 105, and a hydraulic rod 107 located inside the fixed seat 104 and whose telescopic end is connected to the lifting basket 102.
[0051] The protective structure 200 includes a rectangular slide rail 201 fixed to the upper end of the lifting basket 102, a slider 206 slidably installed inside the rectangular slide rail 201, a first strap 202 and a second strap 203 connected to the slider 206, a sub-hook and loop fastener 204 fixed to the inner wall of the first strap 202, and a female hook and loop fastener 205 fixed to the outer wall of the second strap 203.
[0052] The second protective structure 300 includes a support frame 307 fixed on the upper end of the lifting basket 102, a storage frame 302 located on the upper end of the support frame 307 with an open front end, and a top plate 303 located inside the storage frame 302.
[0053] One end of the lifting basket 102 is rotatably equipped with an opening and closing door 103, and the opening and closing door 103 is fixed to the lifting basket 102 by a pin.
[0054] One end of the frame 101 is provided with a guide rail 106, and one end of the fixed base 104 is slidably installed on the outer wall of the guide rail 106.
[0055] The top plate 303 has symmetrically distributed handles 301 at its lower end. The storage frame 302 has travel grooves 304 inside both ends. The top plate 303 has a rotating shaft 306 that is slidably installed inside the travel grooves 304 at both ends. The inner wall of the storage frame 302 has a rectangular groove that passes through the open front end of the storage frame 302. The top plate 303 has support blocks 305 located inside the rectangular groove at both ends.
[0056] Use of Protective Structure 1 200 and Protective Structure 2 300;
[0057] Access to the lifting basket 102 is achieved through the opening and closing door 103. After the door 103 is secured with a pin, straps 1 202 and 203 are fitted around the waist of the maintenance personnel and fastened together with hook and loop fasteners 204 and 205. The sliding mechanism 206 allows for flexible movement of the maintenance personnel within the lifting basket 102 by sliding within a rectangular groove. During operation, when the lifting basket 102 is raised, hydraulic rods 1 105 and 2 107 provide two-stage lifting adjustments. The top plate 303 is positioned above the maintenance personnel's head. Above, when in contact with the interior structure, it provides protection for maintenance personnel, avoiding direct impact that could cause physical injury. The top plate 303 moves within the travel groove 304 via the pivot 306. When the support block 305 moves out of the rectangular groove, the pivot 306 loses its intercepting and limiting force. Furthermore, most of the top plate 303 is located outside the storage frame 302. The weight of one end of the top plate 303 allows it to rotate around the pivot 306, opening the upper part of the storage frame 302. This facilitates overhead maintenance operations for maintenance personnel, improving safety and enhancing functionality.
[0058] Example 2
[0059] Please see Figures 1-8 As shown, this embodiment further includes elements beyond those in embodiment 1;
[0060] as well as;
[0061] The storage structure 400 includes a storage basket 402 located in front of the lifting basket 102 and a motor 401 fixed at one end of the frame 101.
[0062] The movable structure 500 includes casters 508 fixed at the four corners of the lower end of the frame 101 and a motor 501 located at the lower end of the frame 101.
[0063] The output end of motor 401 is provided with a mounting shaft 403. A cable 405 connected to the storage basket 402 is wound on the outer wall of the mounting shaft 403. A guide wheel 406 is provided on the front side of the upper end of the frame 101 and is slidably installed with the cable 405. A guide rail 404 is provided on one side of the upper end of the frame 101 and is slidably installed with the storage basket 402.
[0064] The lower end of the motor 501 is provided with a screw 502. The outer wall of the screw 502 is threaded with a mounting plate 503. The mounting plate 503 is embedded with a sliding sleeve 505. The lower end of the frame 101 is provided with a guide rod 504 that is slidably installed inside the sliding sleeve 505. The outer wall of the mounting plate 503 is provided with four connecting rods 506. One end of each connecting rod 506 is provided with a retainer 507 that is sleeved on the outer side of the upper end of the universal wheel 508.
[0065] Use the access structure 400 and the movement structure 500;
[0066] The frame 101 can be easily slid to a designated position via the casters 508. When it moves to the designated position, the motor 501 drives the screw 502 to rotate. Because the mounting plate 503 is guided longitudinally, the screw 502 presses on the threaded raceway of the mounting plate 503, pushing the mounting plate 503 to move longitudinally. When the mounting plate 503 descends, it drives the interceptor bar and the retaining sleeve 507 to descend. The retaining sleeve 507 squeezes the casters 508 to prevent the casters 508 from rotating and fixes the casters 508. The bottom of the frame 101 is fixed, and the stability of the frame 101 is improved during use.
[0067] When performing kiln maintenance work at a high altitude, the lifting basket 102 may require replacing parts or tools. In such cases, lowering the lifting basket 102 and then having maintenance personnel open the opening door 103 to exit the lifting basket 102 and retrieve the tools and parts is inefficient, tedious, and time-consuming. Instead, ground personnel can place the parts and tools into the storage basket 402. The motor 401 drives the mounting shaft 403 to rotate and rewind the cable 405, raising the storage basket 402, which is guided by longitudinal sliding. Without lowering the lifting basket 102, maintenance personnel can directly obtain the kiln parts and maintenance tools. This improves the flexibility and convenience of use, enabling the lifting structure for kiln maintenance to have 100+ functions.
[0068] In the description of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.
[0069] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
