The left guide rail 4 and the left rack 8 are arranged in parallel and there is a horizontal gap between them.
[0021] Both the right track bracket 1 and the left track bracket 2 are multiple parallel and evenly distributed vertical brackets, which are fixedly connected to the walls on both sides by expansion bolts; the right track bracket 1, the right guide rail 3, the right connecting column 5 and the right rack 7, as well as the left track bracket 2, the left guide rail 4, the left connecting column 6 and the left rack 8 are all connected and fixed together by welding.
[0022] The overhead crane assembly consists of a frame 9, a motor 10, a drive shaft 11, rollers 17, and a transmission device connected to the left and right ends of the drive shaft 11. The transmission device includes a first bearing 12, a second bearing 13, a coupling 14, a gear half-shaft 15, and a gear 16, all mounted on the frame 9. The motor 10 is fixedly connected to the middle of the frame 9, and the motor 10 drives the drive shaft 11. Both ends of the drive shaft 11 pass through the first bearing 12 and are connected to the coupling 14. The other end of the coupling 14 is connected to the gear half-shaft 15. The outer end of the gear half-shaft 15 passes through the second bearing 13 and is fixedly connected to the gear 16. The gears 16 at the left and right ends mesh with the left rack 8 and the right rack 7, respectively. Rollers 17 are connected to both ends of the frame 9 outside the gears 16, and the rollers 17 on both sides are rolled on the left guide rail 4 and the right guide rail 3, respectively.
[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the water supply device includes a water supply pipe 18 fixed along the length of the frame 9. The water supply pipe 18 is connected to a spray pipe 19 located below the frame 9. A bracket 22 is horizontally connected to the lower end of the right rail bracket 1. The bracket 22 is located below the rail device and is set parallel to it. A diagonal brace 24 is fixedly connected between the bottom surface of the bracket 22 and the right rail bracket 1. A water supply steel wire hose 21 is concentrated in the bracket 22. The water supply steel wire hose 21 passes through the drag chain 20, goes around the outside of the bracket 22 to the rear of the frame 9, and connects to the water supply pipe 18. The other end of the water supply steel wire hose 21 near the wall is connected to the water source.
[0024] The inner bottom surface and inner side wall of the tray 22 are connected with smooth strips 23 to reduce the friction of the cable chain 20, and the front end of the cable chain 20 located inside the tray 22 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the frame 9.

[0026] Work process:
[0027] In the overhead crane device, the frame 9 serves as the carrier, and the drive shaft 11 is driven by the motor 10 to provide driving force. The two ends of the drive shaft 11 respectively drive the gears 16 connected to it to roll back and forth or backward on the rack of the track device. The rollers 17 located outside the gears 16 roll on the guide rail for guidance and limiting.
[0028] During its movement, the overhead crane device drags the drag chain 20, which in turn drags the water supply hose 21 to slide within the tray 22. The flow strip 23 reduces the friction of the drag chain 20 within the tray 22, thereby driving the water supply hose 21 to move back and forth, achieving synchronous forward and backward movement in both directions. This prevents the sprinkler pipe 19 from shaking and enables side water supply.
[0029] This utility model device, through the design of synchronous drive of left and right gear racks, makes the operation of the spray pipeline more stable when the crane traveling on it is driven. The design of introducing water supply steel wire hose and combining drag chain on the side can save space by lateral arrangement of water supply pipeline, and can also prevent the water supply pipeline and spray pipeline from swaying.
