Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of lifting equipment technology, and specifically relates to a self-locking turning lifting beam. Background Technology
[0002] During shipbuilding, various sub-sections need to be hoisted and transported. Because the hull sections are relatively weak during the sub-assembly stage, they are prone to deformation during hoisting and turning. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a hoisting device that can turn sub-sections over in the air to achieve an economical, efficient, flexible, and reliable operation mode. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a self-locking turning lifting beam, which is simple to operate and highly applicable.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A self-locking turning beam includes a beam and multiple self-locking devices. The beam has a rectangular ring structure in cross-section. Multiple sets of notches extending downward from its upper end are opened on both side walls along the length of the beam. The multiple self-locking devices are respectively located on one side of one set of notches. After the sling is placed in the notch and falls to the bottom of the notch, the self-locking device prevents the sling from moving out of the notch.
[0006] Furthermore, the self-locking device includes a latch and a lock cylinder. The lock cylinder is a regular or irregular C-shaped structure with its opening facing the notch. The lock cylinder is vertically disposed within the inner ring of the lifting beam and is rotatably connected to the inner ring sidewall of the lifting beam in a vertical plane. The latch is disposed on one side of the notch and is connected to one side of the inner ring surface of the lifting beam along its length direction. It is extended and retractable in a direction perpendicular to the inner ring side surface of the lifting beam. In the non-working state, the lower edge of the lock cylinder is higher than the lower end face of the notch, the upper edge of the lock cylinder is located above the latch, and the latch is in an extended state. In the working state, the lower edge of the lock cylinder is lower than the lower end face of the notch, the upper edge of the lock cylinder is located above the latch, and the lower end face of the latch abuts against the upper edge of the lock cylinder.
[0007] Furthermore, the upper surface of the latch includes an inclined surface that slopes downward from the side near its connection with the lifting beam, and in the non-working state, the upper edge of the lock cylinder is located above the inclined surface.
[0008] Furthermore, a groove is provided on the inner ring sidewall of the lifting beam located on one side of the notch, and the longitudinal section of the latch is a right trapezoid, with its vertical surface connected to the bottom surface of the groove; under the pressure of the lock cylinder, the latch moves into the groove, and when the lock cylinder rotates to the bottom of the groove, the latch pops out.
[0009] Furthermore, one end face of the latch is connected to the inner bottom surface of the groove via a spring.
[0010] Furthermore, a pull member is connected to one end face of the latch that connects to the groove, and a through hole is provided on the inner bottom surface of the groove. One end of the pull member extends through the through hole to the outside of the lifting beam.
[0011] Furthermore, the groove is a pot-shaped notch.
[0012] Furthermore, the lock cylinder is sickle-shaped, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and is connected to the lifting beam by bolts and nuts passing through the two arms along the length of the lifting beam and the lower part of the lifting beam itself.
[0013] Furthermore, several lifting lugs are mirror-symmetrically arranged on the upper end faces of the two arms along the length of the lifting beam, with the lower end faces of the lifting lugs connected to the upper end faces of the lifting beam.
[0014] This utility model relates to a self-locking turning lifting beam, which adds a lock cylinder and a latch inside the lifting beam. The weight of the load causes the lock cylinder to rotate, and the rotation of the lock cylinder contacts the latch to restrict the rotation of the lock cylinder, thus achieving self-locking. It is simple to operate and has strong applicability. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0020] like Figures 1-3As shown, a self-locking turning beam includes a beam 1 and multiple self-locking devices. The beam 1 has a rectangular ring-shaped cross-section. Multiple sets of notches 11 extending downwards from their upper ends are formed on both side walls along the beam 1's length. The multiple self-locking devices are respectively located on one side of one set of notches 11. After a sling 4 is placed inside a notch 11 and falls to the bottom of the notch 11, the self-locking device prevents the sling 4 from moving out of the notch 11. Several lifting lugs 8 are mirror-symmetrically arranged on the upper surfaces of both arms along the beam 1's length, with the lower surfaces of the lugs 8 connected to the upper surfaces of the beam 1.
[0021] In this embodiment, the self-locking device includes a latch 3 and a lock cylinder 2. The lock cylinder 2 is a regular or irregular C-shaped structure with its opening facing the notch 11. The lock cylinder 2 is vertically disposed within the inner ring of the lifting beam 1 and is rotatably connected to the inner ring sidewall of the lifting beam 1 in a vertical plane. The latch 3 is disposed on one side of the notch 11 and is connected to one side of the inner ring surface of the lifting beam 1 along its length direction. It is extended and retracted in a direction perpendicular to the inner ring side surface of the lifting beam 1. In the non-working state, the lower edge of the lock cylinder 2 is higher than the lower end face of the notch 11, and the upper edge of the lock cylinder 2 is located above the latch 3. The latch 3 is in an extended state. In the working state, the lower edge of the lock cylinder 2 is lower than the lower end face of the notch 11, and the upper edge of the lock cylinder 2 is located above the latch 3. The lower end face of the latch 3 abuts against the upper edge of the lock cylinder 2.
[0022] Furthermore, the upper surface of the latch 3 includes an inclined surface that slopes downward from the side near its connection with the lifting beam 1. In the non-working state, the upper edge of the lock cylinder 2 is located above the inclined surface.
[0023] In some embodiments, a groove 12 is provided on the inner ring sidewall of the lifting beam 1 located on one side of the notch 11. The longitudinal section of the latch 3 is a right trapezoid, and its vertical surface is connected to the inner bottom surface of the groove 12 by a spring 6. The lock cylinder 2 is sickle-shaped, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. The lock cylinder 2 is connected to the lifting beam 1 by bolts 5 and nuts passing through the two arms along the length direction of the lifting beam 1 and its own lower middle part. Under the downward pressure of the lock cylinder 2, the latch 3 moves into the groove 12. When the lock cylinder 2 rotates to below the groove 12, the latch 3 pops out.
[0024] To facilitate the movement of the latch 3 into the groove 12 when preparing to remove the lifting device, a pull member is connected to the end face of the latch 3 connected to the groove 12. A through hole is provided on the inner bottom surface of the groove 12, and one end of the pull member extends through the through hole to the outside of the lifting beam 1. In some embodiments, the pull member is a pull rope 7 or a pull rod.
[0025] Those skilled in the art should understand that the above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
