Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model specifically relates to the field of detection device technology, and more specifically to a simple monorail crane for carrying people. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial settings such as mines, tunnels, and large factories, personnel transportation is a crucial link in ensuring the smooth operation of production. Traditional methods of personnel transportation, such as walking or simple vehicle transport, have many drawbacks. In underground mines, the tunnel environment is complex, with significant variations in slope, narrow spaces, poor ventilation, and the presence of harmful gases. Walking not only consumes a great deal of workers' physical strength but is also extremely inefficient for long-distance transport, failing to meet the needs of rapid deployment and personnel rotation. Simple vehicle transport, due to limited tunnel space and poor road conditions, faces difficulties in passage and cannot flexibly adapt to different work areas.

[0003] While existing monorail systems and similar rail transport equipment have improved transportation efficiency to some extent, they still have significant shortcomings in terms of safety and functionality. Some monorail systems lack effective emergency braking measures, making them unable to stop quickly in the event of emergencies, which can easily lead to accidents. Furthermore, these systems offer poor passenger conditions and lack necessary protective facilities, failing to provide safety guarantees for passengers in situations such as hazardous gas leaks or rockfalls in the tunnel. At the same time, the internal configuration of these systems is simplistic and cannot meet the diverse needs of personnel during transportation, such as the lack of emergency oxygen supply, communication equipment, and storage space for goods.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Please see Figure 1-8 In this embodiment of the utility model, a simple monorail crane carrying device includes a monorail crane 1, the two sides of which are slidably connected to a track moving mechanism 2; the bottom of the track moving mechanism 2 is fixedly connected to a personnel vehicle 3; emergency braking and safety devices 4 are diagonally arranged on both sides of the upper end of the personnel vehicle 3; the diagonally arranged emergency braking and safety devices 4 are slidably connected to both sides of the monorail crane 1 respectively.

[0033] The emergency braking and avoidance device 4 includes a mounting base 41, which is symmetrically fixedly installed on both sides of the upper end of the vehicle body 31. Each mounting base 41 is connected to a connecting frame 42, and the ends of the connecting frame 42 are symmetrically provided with sliders 43. The symmetrically provided sliders 43 are slidably connected to the monorail crane 1.

[0034] The connecting frame 42 has an inner mounting groove 44 at its end, and a telescopic cylinder 45 is installed in the mounting groove 44. The end of the telescopic cylinder 45 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 46. When the end of the telescopic cylinder 45 extends, the fixing plate 46 is connected to the monorail 1.

[0035] By adopting the above technical solution, the conventional movement relies on the cooperation of the main roller seat 22, the driven roller seat 24 and the monorail 1 to achieve stable operation. The emergency braking and safety device 4, as a key safety protection, is quickly activated in case of emergencies. It achieves emergency braking through the friction between the fixed plate 46 and the monorail 1, which greatly improves the braking reliability of the device in emergency situations and effectively avoids safety accidents caused by track failures, loss of control and other problems.

[0036] In this embodiment, the upper end of the vehicle body 31 is fixedly connected to the fixed seat 26, the upper end of the fixed seat 26 is fixedly connected to the connecting seat 23, and the upper end of the connecting seat 23 is symmetrically equipped with a main roller seat 22 and a driven roller seat 24.

[0037] One side of the main roller seat 22 is connected to the rotary motor 21, and one side of the driven roller seat 24 is connected to the reducer 25; the main roller seat 22 and the driven roller seat 24 are slidably connected to the monorail crane 1.

[0038] By adopting the above technical solution, the symmetrical design of the main roller seat 22 and the driven roller seat 24, combined with the power transmission of the rotary motor 21 and the reducer 25, ensures that the personnel carrying device is subjected to uniform force when running on the monorail 1, which can effectively reduce swaying and deviation. Even in complex track environments or high-speed operation, it can maintain stable operation and improve the safety and comfort of transportation.

[0039] In this embodiment, a fixing post 32 is provided at each of the four corners of the lower inner side of the vehicle body 31, and the upper end of the fixing post 32 is fixedly connected to the upper inner side of the vehicle body 31; a glass protective cover 33 is provided on both the front and rear sides of the vehicle body 31.

[0040] The inner side of the vehicle body 31 is provided with a storage cabinet 34, and a control console 35 is provided on one side of the upper end of the storage cabinet 34. The inner side of the vehicle body 31 is also provided with an adjustable seat 36, an emergency oxygen supply system 37, and an emergency communication device 38.

[0041] By adopting the above technical solutions, the vehicle body 31 is equipped with a glass protective cover 33 around its perimeter, which can effectively block falling rocks, flying objects and harmful gases in the tunnel, providing physical isolation and protection for personnel; the emergency oxygen supply system 37 can supply oxygen to personnel in a timely manner in case of emergency such as harmful gas leakage or oxygen deficiency, ensuring life safety; the emergency communication device 38 ensures that personnel can contact the outside world in an emergency, facilitating timely rescue work and ensuring personnel life safety in multiple dimensions.

[0042] The vehicle body 31 is equipped with an adjustable seat 36, which allows passengers to adjust the seat angle and position according to their own needs, adapting to different body types and sitting habits, and reducing fatigue during long-distance transportation. The storage cabinet 34 provides storage space for personnel to carry tools, personal items, etc., improving the convenience of the transportation process. The control console 35 integrates the operation control functions of the manned device. Operators can use the control console 35 to precisely operate the device, such as starting, stopping, and adjusting the speed, to ensure the efficiency and controllability of the device operation.

[0043] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: After the system is started, the rotary motor 21 is powered on and runs, converting electrical energy into mechanical energy and outputting rotational power. This power is transmitted to the main roller seat 22, driving the main roller to roll on the monorail 1. Since the main roller seat 22 and the driven roller seat 24 are both slidably connected to the monorail 1, the driven roller seat 24 moves synchronously along the monorail 1 under the drive of the main roller. The main roller seat 22 and the driven roller seat 24 are connected to the vehicle body 31 through the connecting seat 23 and the fixed seat 26, thereby driving the entire track moving mechanism 2 and the vehicle 3 to slide smoothly along the track direction of the monorail 1, realizing the movement of the personnel carrying device and completing the personnel transportation task.

[0044] When the manned device encounters a sudden dangerous situation during operation, such as track abnormality, power system failure, or external emergency signal triggering, the control system issues a command to activate the emergency braking and safety device 4. The telescopic cylinder 45 installed in the mounting groove 44 at the end of the connecting frame 42 responds quickly. Under the action of compressed gas or hydraulic pressure, the piston inside the cylinder pushes the end of the telescopic rod to extend. As the telescopic rod extends, the fixed plate 46 fixedly connected to it is pushed towards the monorail 1 until the fixed plate 46 is in close contact with the monorail 1. A strong frictional force is generated between the fixed plate 46 and the monorail 1. This frictional force quickly consumes the operating kinetic energy of the manned device, causing it to stop moving in a short time, avoiding accidents and ensuring personnel safety.

[0045] The vehicle body 31 is equipped with a glass protective cover 33 around its perimeter, which can effectively block falling rocks, flying objects and harmful gases in the alley, providing physical isolation and protection for personnel; the emergency oxygen supply system 37 can supply oxygen to personnel in a timely manner in case of emergency such as harmful gas leakage or oxygen deficiency, ensuring life safety; the emergency communication device 38 ensures that personnel can contact the outside world in an emergency, facilitating timely rescue work and ensuring personnel life safety in multiple dimensions.

[0046] The vehicle body 31 is equipped with an adjustable seat 36, which allows passengers to adjust the seat angle and position according to their own needs, adapting to different body types and sitting habits, and reducing fatigue during long-distance transportation. The storage cabinet 34 provides storage space for personnel to carry tools, personal items, etc., improving the convenience of the transportation process. The control console 35 integrates the operation control functions of the manned device. Operators can use the control console 35 to precisely operate the device, such as starting, stopping, and adjusting the speed, to ensure the efficiency and controllability of the device's operation.

[0047] The symmetrical design of the main roller seat 22 and the driven roller seat 24, combined with the power transmission of the rotary motor 21 and the reducer 25, ensures that the personnel carrier is subjected to uniform force when running on the monorail 1, which can effectively reduce swaying and deviation. Even in complex track environments or high-speed operation, it can maintain stable operation and improve the safety and comfort of transportation.
