Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of hook limiting safety devices, specifically a crane hook limiting safety device. Background Technology
[0002] A crane is a lifting machine that vertically lifts and horizontally moves heavy objects within its range of motion. In a work cycle, the corresponding mechanisms for picking up, moving, and unloading materials work alternately. Crane limit mechanisms are an indispensable and important component in the field of crane safety. Existing hook fall prevention safety devices and safety limit devices may malfunction or fail during maintenance or operation, or due to environmental factors and the influence of operation, maintenance, and upkeep, which can lead to unacceptable safety accidents.
[0003] For example, CN221500347U discloses a crane hook limiting device, including a support frame, on which a lifting assembly and a winding assembly are connected. The lifting assembly and the winding assembly are connected. A limiting component is provided at the moving end of the lifting assembly. The limiting component is connected to a balancing component to reduce the sway amplitude, and the winding assembly is connected to the balancing component. The lifting assembly includes a drive mechanism, the output end of which is connected to a traction rope. The traction rope passes over the surface of a pulley, which is rotatably disposed inside the assembly.

The limiting component includes a base plate, the top of which has a groove. A first clamping plate is slidably installed inside the groove, and a second clamping plate is fixedly installed on the top of the base plate. The utility model limits the assembly and hook by using the limiting component to reduce their sway amplitude.
[0004] Although the aforementioned patent uses a limiting component to limit the kit and hook, reducing their swaying amplitude, the existing technology of this patent relies on visual observation of the distance between the lifting height of the hoisting equipment and the height of the hook and the cargo, especially when precise lifting is required. This may result in the cargo or equipment not being placed properly, and repeated operations may cause accidents. Utility Model Content

It solves the problem that in existing technologies, the height of lifting or descent of crane equipment is determined by visually observing the distance of the hook and the goods, which may lead to improper placement of goods or equipment, repeated operations, and potential injuries, especially when precise lifting is required.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A crane hook limiting safety device includes a fixed rod, a connecting rope fixed to the bottom end of the fixed rod, a crane hook body fixed to the bottom end of the connecting rope, a lifting rope fixed to the top end of the fixed rod, a safety mechanism provided on the outer side of the fixed rod, and an anti-detachment component provided on the right side wall of the inner cavity of the crane hook body.
[0008] The safety mechanism includes a fixed cylinder rotatably connected to the outside of a fixed rod via bearings. A first transmission wheel is fixed to the outside of the fixed cylinder.

An electric push rod is hinged to the left side of the fixed cylinder via a hinge seat. The outside of the electric push rod's output shaft is hinged to the upper surface of the connecting plate via a hinge seat.
[0009] Furthermore, the safety mechanism also includes a limit frame fixed on the left side of the fixed cylinder, the bottom end of which is in contact with the upper surface of the connecting plate.
[0010] Furthermore, the anti-detachment component includes a threaded groove formed on the right side wall of the inner cavity of the crane hook body, and a threaded hole is formed through the left side of the crane hook body. A threaded rod is threadedly connected to the threaded hole and the threaded groove, and a handle is fixed to the left side of the threaded rod.

Through the real-time distance detection of the ultrasonic distance controller, collisions between the hook and surrounding objects or the ground during hoisting can be effectively avoided, thus greatly reducing the risk of safety accidents. This improves the safety and efficiency of production operations, thereby achieving the goal of continuous improvement in safe production.
[0018] 2. The crane hook limit safety device, through a variety of safety measures such as threaded connection device, safety rope and baffle device, can effectively prevent the goods from falling off the hook, reduce hook sway, and ensure the stability of the goods during the lifting process, thereby reducing the risk of safety accidents.

The connecting rope 2, the hoisting rope 4, and the safety rope are all steel wire ropes. The connecting rope 2 is located on the longitudinal central axis of the fixed rod 1.
[0027] Please see Figures 2 to 3 In this embodiment, the safety mechanism 5 includes a fixed cylinder 501 rotatably connected to the outside of the fixed rod 1 via a bearing. A first transmission wheel 502 is fixed to the outside of the fixed cylinder 501. A mounting plate 503 is fixed to the right side of the fixed rod 1. A motor 504 is fixed to the lower surface of the mounting plate 503. A second transmission wheel 505 is fixed to the outside of the output shaft of the motor 504. The first transmission wheel 502 and the second transmission wheel 505 are connected by a belt drive. A connecting plate 506 is hinged to the left side of the fixed cylinder 501 via a hinge seat. An ultrasonic distance controller 507 is fixed to the left side of the lower surface of the connecting plate 506. An electric push rod 508 is hinged to the left side of the fixed cylinder 501 via a hinge seat.

[0030] It should be noted that the ultrasonic distance controller 507 can detect the safe distance of the crane hook body 3 when it rises or falls, thereby ensuring the normal lifting of goods, eliminating safety hazards in the production process, and achieving the goal of continuous improvement in safe production. By starting the motor 504, the ultrasonic distance controller 507 can be rotated through the first transmission wheel 502 and the second transmission wheel 505 to achieve position adjustment.
