Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of fencing installation technology in urban greening, specifically to the field of an integrated greening fencing installation machine. Background Technology

[0002] During highway reconstruction and expansion construction, the installation of green fencing is one of the important measures to ensure the safety of the construction site and reduce the impact on the surrounding environment. However, traditional green fencing installation methods have significant safety hazards and low operational efficiency.

[0003] The traditional installation method involves transporting the green fence components and planters to the construction site by truck, where they are then installed manually. Three to five workers manually lift and install the fence frame, and then continue manually lifting and securing the planters to the pre-assembled frame. Next, workers place the plants one by one into the planters, and finally, the water pipe system for irrigating the plants is installed.

[0004] The above-described work methods present significant safety hazards for workers operating on highways due to heavy traffic and high vehicle speeds. This is especially true when workers need to maintain high efficiency for extended periods while remaining constantly vigilant of oncoming vehicles, increasing the risk of accidents. Secondly, manual installation is not only time-consuming but also inefficient. The process of manually placing each plant individually on-site severely limits overall work efficiency. Furthermore, in highway reconstruction and expansion projects, installation work is typically confined to emergency lanes, further limiting the availability of space.

[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, there is an urgent need for a safer and more efficient solution for installing green plant fencing to improve operational efficiency while reducing safety risks for workers operating in road environments. Summary of the Invention

[0006] In response to the above-mentioned needs, this application proposes an integrated greening fence installation machine, which aims to provide a safer and faster integrated hoisting equipment for the installation of vertical greening fences. This allows the vertical greening fences to be assembled into a whole in a centralized site before being transported to the site for installation. The integrated machine hoists the greening fence into place as a whole, reducing manual labor. Only minor adjustments and fixation are needed to complete the installation of the greening fence.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present application adopts the following technical solution:

[0008] A green plant enclosure installation machine includes multiple folding support mechanisms disposed on one side of the unloading direction of the transport vehicle, a bridge spanning the folding support mechanisms, a traveling mechanism for moving the bridge across the folding support mechanisms, and a boom disposed on the bridge and movable up and down.

[0009] When unfolded, the folding support mechanism is horizontal; when folded, it can be folded back to the inside of the vehicle body.

[0010] It also includes a fixed support that is fixed to the transport vehicle and provides support to the walking mechanism, and the folding support mechanism is horizontally connected to the fixed support when unfolded.

[0011] Thus, the folding support mechanism of this application, through folding and unfolding, can achieve folding back during transportation and support during unfolding. This allows it to function as a robotic arm structure during fence installation, enabling the automatic lifting, unloading, and retraction of the green fence. Installation and dismantling are extremely convenient during fence operations, significantly improving efficiency. Furthermore, automated installation reduces human intervention, and the short operation time along highways and expressways allows for rapid construction completion, reducing the probability of accidents and greatly improving safety.

[0012] In some possible implementations, there are two folding support mechanisms and two fixed supports, respectively located at the front and rear ends of the transport vehicle.

[0013] In some possible implementations, the folding support mechanism includes a track arm that allows the walking mechanism to move and a telescopic support arm that supports and folds the track arm.

[0014] In some possible implementations, the track arm is provided with a balanced connection portion that is connected to and rotates relative to the support arm.

[0015] In some possible implementations, the support arm is provided with a fulcrum portion that allows the support arm to rotate.

[0016] In some possible implementations, the support arm is provided with a hydraulic cylinder to control its extension and retraction.

[0017] In some possible implementations, the boom is provided with a movable part that allows it to move back and forth across the cable tray.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, the moving part is a gear, and the bridge frame is provided with a rack that allows the gear to move.

[0019] In some possible implementations, the lower end of the boom is provided with a hook portion of a hook enclosure, the hook portion facing the inside of the transport vehicle.

[0020] In some possible implementations, the boom is positioned outside the transport vehicle relative to the traveling mechanism. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The following examples further illustrate the features of this application and other related features in detail, so as to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art:

[0031] It should be noted that the terms “front,” “back,” “left,” “right,” “up,” and “down” used in the following description refer to the directions in the attached diagrams, while the terms “bottom surface,” “top surface,” “inner,” and “outer” refer to the directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.

[0032] Furthermore, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" 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 direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this case based on the specific circumstances.

[0033] In municipal engineering projects, such as road expansion and maintenance, or the construction of underground pipelines or underground transportation systems in urban areas, greenbelt fencing is often installed. First, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2In section (a), the problem to be solved by the integrated green plant fencing installation machine of this application is to prefabricate vertical green plant fencing off-site, instead of assembling it manually at the construction site. The finished fencing 100 is then transported to the construction site by a transport vehicle 200 and installed on the designated installation platform 400 within the fencing edge 300, thereby avoiding manual labor. The fencing 100 used in the following description refers to the finished vertical green plant fencing that has already been fabricated off-site.

[0034] Please refer to its working process. Figures 1 to 6 Please refer to the specific structural details. Figures 7 to 9 This application discloses a green plant enclosure installation machine, which includes multiple folding support mechanisms 1 disposed on one side of the transport vehicle 200 in the unloading direction, and a bridge frame 2 spanning the folding support mechanisms 1. When unfolded, the folding support mechanisms 1 are horizontal and can cover the position of the installation platform 400. When folded, they can be folded back to the inside of the vehicle body to facilitate the movement of the transport vehicle 200.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The cable tray 2 moves on the unfolded folding support mechanism 1, which is moved via the traveling mechanism 3. A fixed support 210 is also provided, fixed to the transport vehicle 200 and providing support to the traveling mechanism 3 when the folding support mechanism 1 is folded. When the folding support mechanism 1 is unfolded, it is horizontally connected to the fixed support 210. In some embodiments, the folding support mechanism 1 and the fixed support 210 can be an I-shaped track structure. The traveling mechanism 3 supports the cable tray 2 on the track, moving it towards the transport vehicle 200 and the mounting platform 400. This can be achieved using pulleys, driven by either hydraulic cylinders or electric motors—common industry techniques—and will not be described in detail here.

[0036] Preferably, there are two folding support mechanisms 1 and two fixed supports 210, respectively located at the front and rear ends of the transport vehicle 200. A simple unfolding method can be achieved using a conventional linkage structure; this application provides an automatic unfolding solution.

[0037] For details, please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9The folding support mechanism 1 includes a track arm 11 that allows the walking mechanism 3 to move, and a telescopic support arm 12 that supports and folds the track arm 11. The support arm 12 is equipped with a hydraulic cylinder to control its extension and retraction. The support arm 12 requires a large space when extending and retracting linearly, and the track arm 11 experiences significant force when folding and unfolding. To address this, the track arm 11 in this application is equipped with a balancing connection part 111 that connects to and rotates relative to the support arm 12. Specifically, this part is located at the lower end of the track arm 11 in its unfolded state, and gradually unfolds towards both sides from the connection point with the support arm 12. This not only adjusts the force angle but also balances the force on various parts of the track arm 11.

[0038] On the other hand, the support arm 12 extends and retracts relatively far in a straight line. To address this, the support arm 12 of this application is provided with a fulcrum 121 that allows the support arm 12 to rotate. Specifically, the fulcrum 121 can be fixed to a fixing post 220 at the transport vehicle 200. The fixing post 220 can be part of the vehicle body of the transport vehicle 200 or an additional support post; there is no limitation on this. In this case, the support arm 12 will rotate as it extends and retracts. For example, when folded, it can remain perpendicular to the track arm 11, occupying less space.

[0039] When lifting and unloading the fencing 100, due to its width, two crane booms 4 are generally used to complete the operation. This can be achieved by equipping each set of fencing 100 with two crane booms 4, or by unloading in sets according to the actual working conditions. In this case, a moving part 41 can be installed on the crane boom 4 to allow it to move in the front-back direction of the cable tray 2. Specifically, the moving part 41 can be a gear, and the cable tray 2 can be equipped with a rack 21 that allows the gear to move. Alternatively, rollers or slides can also be used for movement.

[0040] The above setup allows for the inward and outward movement of cable tray 2, as well as its left and right movement. Furthermore, the enclosure 100 needs to be lifted for loading and unloading. Please refer to [the relevant documentation / reference]. Figure 1 and Figure 7 The present application provides a vertically movable boom 4 on the cable tray 2. The boom 4 can move up and down in a conventional gear-driven manner, and its power structure can be controlled by a hydraulic cylinder or an electric motor. For example, the moving part 41 adopts the same principle, which will not be described in detail.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 9 The lower end of the boom 4 in this application is provided with a hook portion 42 of the hook enclosure 100, specifically the hook portion 42 facing the inside of the transport vehicle 200. Furthermore, the boom 4 is positioned on the outside of the transport vehicle 200 relative to the traveling mechanism 3, so the operation of the entire boom 4 will not pose a safety hazard to the workers on the outside, and after unloading and returning to its original position, it will not affect the operation of the transport vehicle 200.

[0042] Thus, the folding support mechanism 1 of this application, through folding and unfolding, can achieve folding back during transportation and support during unfolding. When installing the fence 100, it presents a robotic arm structure with the bridge 2 moving and the boom 4 moving up and down. This allows for automatic lifting, unloading, and retraction of the green fence 100. Installation and dismantling of the fence 100 are very convenient during operation, improving efficiency. Simultaneously, automatic installation reduces human intervention, and the short operation time on highways and expressways allows for rapid construction completion, reducing the probability of accidents and significantly improving safety.

[0043] The following is a detailed description of its implementation process. Please refer to it. Figure 1 This is a side view of the transport vehicle 200 with the fencing 100 loaded. The figure shows three sets of fencing 100 loaded and three crane booms 4. In actual application, the operation can be completed with either additional crane booms or only two crane booms 4.

[0044] After the transport vehicle 200 moves to the designated location, please refer to... Figure 2 The diagram illustrates the unfolding process of the folding support mechanism 1. Figure (a) shows the folded state, (b) shows the unfolded state, and (c) shows the moving bridge 2, which moves the boom 4 to an empty position. This operation is primarily for when the boom 4 needs to be moved back and forth to be grouped with another boom 4 to move the enclosure 100. In subsequent steps, it will be assumed that the boom 4 has been successfully grouped.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 3 The lifting process is as follows: (a) the boom 4 is raised to the top of the enclosure 100; (b) the hook part 42 is moved to the position where it is inserted into the enclosure 100; (c) the boom 4 is raised so that the hook part 42 abuts against the top of the enclosure 100; (d) the boom 4 is raised further to lift the enclosure 100.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 4 The unloading process is as follows: In Figure (a), the cable tray 2 moves, causing the boom 4 to move the enclosure 100 above the mounting platform 400. Then, in Figure (b), the boom 4 is lowered, causing the enclosure 100 to fall onto the mounting platform 400. In Figure (c), the cable tray 2 continues to move, and the hook part 42 is pulled out. During this process, the boom 4 can be lowered further to release the hook part 42, or a sliding device can be installed on the enclosure 100 so that when the hook part 42 is pulled out, it contacts the sliding device of the enclosure 100 and is pulled out smoothly. There is no specific limitation on this. In Figure (d), the boom 4 is raised to complete the unloading of a single enclosure 100.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 5The boom retraction process is as follows: In Figure (a), the boom 4 is retracted into the transport vehicle 200; in Figure (b), the boom 4 is lowered and the part that extends beyond the top of the transport vehicle 200 is retracted; in Figure (c), the transport vehicle 200 is moved away from the installed enclosure 100; and in Figure (d), the folding support mechanism 1 is folded back.

[0048] As stated above, this case protects an integrated green plant fencing installation machine, and all technical solutions that are the same as or similar to this case should be considered to fall within the scope of protection of this case.
