Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hoisting technology, and more specifically, to a tooling for moving and installing sterilization cylinders in low-space conditions. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technology, the sterilization cylinder is part of an ultra-high pressure sterilization (UHPP) system. Normally, the cylinder is placed on a worktable about 1 meter above the ground within the UHPP system, and sterilization is achieved by pressurizing the cylinder. The sterilization cylinder is a cylindrical hollow container, up to 4 meters long and weighing up to 10 tons. It typically requires a gantry crane or other crane for movement. However, some installation sites have limited factory height, especially older buildings, making it impossible to directly use a gantry crane or other crane, resulting in extremely difficult cylinder installation. In other words, existing technology often results in small cranes being unable to lift the sterilization cylinder, and large cranes being unable to extend their long arms due to space limitations, ultimately leading to situations where the sterilization cylinder cannot be moved or installed in low-ceilinged environments.

[0003] In summary, how to achieve the mobile installation of sterilization cylinders with relatively low height restrictions and reduce the installation difficulty caused by the excessive size of sterilization cylinders is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a tooling for moving and installing sterilization cylinders under low space height, which can realize the moving and installation of sterilization cylinders under lower height restrictions, and helps to reduce the installation difficulty caused by the excessive size of sterilization cylinders.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A low-height, movable installation fixture for sterilization cylinders includes:

[0007] The frame has wheels at its bottom for moving along the ground, and the wheels are equipped with brakes.

[0008] The lifting components are located on the front and rear sides of the frame;

[0009] The two lifting components on the same side are provided with a lifting strap at their bottom. The lifting strap is distributed in a U-shape to lift the horizontally placed sterilization cylinder.

[0010] In one embodiment, the frame includes two opposing and vertically distributed first frames and second frames, the second frames being horizontally positioned on top of the two first frames, and the wheels being provided at the bottom of the first frames.

[0011] In one embodiment, the second frame includes a rectangular support, with reinforcing ribs at each of the four corners of the rectangular support.

[0012] In one embodiment, the first frame includes two vertically arranged legs below the sides of the rectangular frame and a connecting leg for horizontally connecting the two legs, with the bottom of the legs passing through the connecting leg and having the traveling wheel.

[0013] In one embodiment, the reinforcing ribs are provided between the support leg and the rectangular frame, and between the support leg and the connecting leg.

[0014] In one embodiment, the lifting device includes an electric hoist or a manual hoist.

[0015] In one embodiment, the lifting component is detachably mounted on the frame via an assembly.

[0016] In one embodiment, the assembly is fixedly disposed on the frame, or the assembly is slidably disposed on the frame.

[0017] When using the low-height sterilization cylinder moving and installation fixture provided by this utility model, when it is necessary to hoist the sterilization cylinder, firstly, the four hoisting components on the frame can be controlled to descend synchronously, with each pair of hoisting components on the same side forming a group. The hoisting components are lowered to their lowest point, allowing the lifting straps to fall to the ground. Then, the sterilization cylinder is hoisted onto the flexible lifting straps, and the hoisting components are raised to a suitable height. The two U-shaped lifting straps can jointly support the horizontally placed sterilization cylinder. Finally, the operator can move the sterilization cylinder by pushing the frame to move it above the ultra-high pressure sterilization equipment. After the frame is in place, a brake can be used to prevent further movement. Furthermore, the horizontally placed sterilization cylinder facilitates position adjustment, ensuring the sterilization cylinder is placed correctly. By using this device, the problem of inaccurate positioning of the sterilization cylinder during installation and the need for readjustment after placement can be solved, reducing installation difficulties and high installation costs caused by the height of the sterilization cylinder.

[0018] In summary, the low-height sterilization cylinder moving and installation fixture provided by this utility model can realize the moving and installation of sterilization cylinders under relatively low height restrictions, which helps to reduce the installation difficulty caused by the excessive size of the sterilization cylinder.

Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0025] The core of this utility model is to provide a tooling for moving and installing sterilization cylinders under low space height, which can realize the moving and installation of sterilization cylinders under relatively low height restrictions, and helps to reduce the installation difficulty caused by the excessive size of sterilization cylinders.

[0026] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This specific embodiment provides a low-height, movable installation fixture for sterilization cylinders, including:

[0027] The frame 1 has a bottom equipped with a walking wheel 4 for moving along the ground, and the walking wheel 4 is equipped with a brake.

[0028] Lifting component 2, whose lifting mechanism is located on the front and rear sides of frame 1;

[0029] A sling 3 is provided at the bottom of the two lifting components 2 on the same side. The sling 3 is distributed in a U-shape to lift the horizontally placed sterilization cylinder 6.

[0030] It should be noted that, to ensure the effectiveness of this device and prevent deformation or damage during the hoisting and transport of the sterilization cylinder 6, industrial aluminum profiles or I-beams can be used for the frame support. Industrial aluminum profiles are favored due to their structural stability, ease of installation, and ease of maintenance. Their load-bearing capacity is affected by factors such as profile specifications, accessories and connection methods, frame structure, number of columns, and customized design. For example, large-size aluminum profiles (such as the 120 series) can bear approximately 3500 kg, while small-size profiles (such as the 15 series) generally have a load-bearing capacity of around 200 kg. I-beams are a common building structural material widely used to support and bear various weights. Their load-bearing capacity is affected by factors such as material, cross-sectional shape, dimensions, and the standards followed. For example, a 4-meter long, 12mm thick I-beam can withstand a weight of 3.5 tons. Furthermore, different specifications of I-beams vary in width, height, and web thickness, all of which affect their load-bearing capacity.

[0031] In practical applications, the shape, structure, size, and material of the frame 1, lifting components 2, and lifting straps 3 can be determined according to the actual situation and needs.

[0032] When using the low-height sterilization cylinder moving and installation fixture provided by this utility model, when it is necessary to hoist the sterilization cylinder 6, firstly, the four hoisting components 2 on the frame can be controlled to descend synchronously, with each pair of hoisting components 2 on the same side forming a group. The hoisting components 2 are lowered to their lowest point, causing the lifting straps 3 to fall to the ground. Then, the sterilization cylinder 6 is hoisted onto the flexible lifting straps 3, and the hoisting components 2 are raised to a suitable height. The two U-shaped lifting straps 3 can then support the horizontally placed sterilization cylinder 6 together. Finally, the operator can move the sterilization cylinder 6 by pushing the frame 1 to move it above the ultra-high pressure sterilization equipment. After the frame 1 is in place, a brake can be used to prevent further movement. Furthermore, the horizontally placed sterilization cylinder 6 is easy to adjust, ensuring that the sterilization cylinder 6 is placed correctly. By using this device, the problem of inaccurate positioning of the sterilization cylinder 6 during installation and the need for readjustment after placement can be solved, reducing installation difficulties and high installation costs caused by the height of the sterilization cylinder 6.

[0033] In summary, the low-height sterilization cylinder moving and installation fixture provided by this utility model can realize the moving and installation of the sterilization cylinder 6 under relatively low height restrictions, which helps to reduce the installation difficulty caused by the excessive size of the sterilization cylinder 6.

[0034] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the frame 1 includes two opposing and vertically distributed first frames 11 and second frames 12. The second frames 12 are horizontally positioned on top of the two first frames 11, and the bottom of the first frames 11 is provided with wheels 4.

[0035] In one embodiment, the second frame 12 includes a rectangular support, with reinforcing ribs 13 at each of the four corners of the rectangular support to improve the structural stability of the rectangular support.

[0036] In one embodiment, the first frame 11 includes two vertically arranged support legs 111 below the sides of the rectangular frame and a connecting leg 112 for horizontally connecting the two support legs 111. The bottom of the support legs 111 passes through the connecting leg 112 and is provided with a traveling wheel 4 so that the frame 1 has a certain height, so as to avoid the sterilization cylinder 6 being too low when hoisting, which would cause the sterilization cylinder 6 to be easily bumped and damaged during transportation.

[0037] In one embodiment, reinforcing ribs 13 are provided between the support leg 111 and the rectangular frame, and between the support leg 111 and the connecting leg 112, to improve the structural stability of the second frame 12.

[0038] In one embodiment, the lifting component 2 includes an electric hoist or a manual hoist.

[0039] It should be noted that electric hoists are a common type of small, lightweight lifting equipment, typically installed on cranes, overhead cranes, and gantry cranes. They consist of both mechanical and electrical components and are characterized by their small size, light weight, simple operation, and ease of use. Electric hoists are primarily powered by a sliding contact line and operated via a handle. The control circuit within the control box controls the hoist's lifting and traveling motors to achieve lifting purposes. Most electric hoists are operated by personnel using buttons on the ground, or from the operator's cab, or via wired (wireless) remote control. Electric hoists offer a high degree of automation and high efficiency, adapting to various complex lifting tasks. They can achieve rapid lifting and lowering, saving manpower, but are relatively expensive and require a power source; they cannot be used in locations without a power supply.

[0040] Manual hoists are simple to operate and easy to carry, but they are labor-intensive and relatively inefficient, making them suitable for light-duty lifting operations. The braking principle of a manual hoist relies on manual operation to activate gears; that is, the hoist relies on human power to operate the handle, using a gear transmission system to lift and lower the load. Its power source is entirely human. Manual hoists have advantages such as simple structure, no need for a power source, no limitations on site power availability, relatively low price, and high cost-effectiveness. However, their operation is labor-intensive, lifting speed is slow, and work efficiency is low. In practical applications, the type of lifting component 2 can be selected based on the actual situation and needs.

[0041] Additionally, it should be noted that four manual hoists can be installed on the frame 1, with two manual hoists on the same side forming a group. During use, firstly, the manual hoists can be loosened to their lowest point, allowing the flexible sling 3 to fall to the ground. Then, the sterilization cylinder 6 is hoisted onto the flexible sling 3, and the manual hoists are tightened to the appropriate height. Finally, the operator pushes the frame 1 to move the sterilization cylinder 6 above the sterilization equipment base. After adjusting for symmetry, the sterilization cylinder 6 is carefully placed (i.e., after initially placing the sterilization cylinder 6, its position can be readjusted).

[0042] Compared with existing technologies, this device can standardize the installation method of the sterilization cylinder 6, changing the awkward situation that it is impossible to install due to insufficient installation space or lack of a gantry frame. This device can also solve the problem that the sterilization cylinder 6 cannot be accurately positioned during installation and needs to be adjusted again after placement. Furthermore, by using this device, the problem of excessively high installation costs caused by the difficulty in installing the sterilization cylinder 6 can be effectively solved.

[0043] In one embodiment, the lifting component 2 is detachably mounted on the frame 1 via the mounting accessory 5. Therefore, if either the lifting component 2 or the sling 3 is damaged, it can be replaced by disassembly, and the new component can be used in conjunction with other undamaged components to improve the service life of the device and reduce the maintenance cost of the device.

[0044] In one embodiment, the assembly 5 is fixedly mounted on the frame 1, or the assembly 5 is slidably mounted on the frame 1. Therefore, the distance between the two lifting components 2 on the same side can be fixed or variable. If the distance between the two lifting components 2 on the same side can be variable, the device can be adapted to assemble cylindrical structures of different diameters.

[0045] In addition, it should be noted that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by "top and bottom", "vertical", "horizontal", etc. in this application is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and is only for the purpose of simplifying the description and making it easier to understand, and is not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

Similar or identical parts between embodiments can be referred to interchangeably. Any combination of all embodiments provided by this utility model is within the protection scope of this utility model and will not be elaborated upon here.

The descriptions of the embodiments above are only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core idea of ​​this utility model.
