[0015] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0016] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this utility model discloses a cable isolation and storage bracket for welding equipment spanning a passageway, including a portal frame 3. The portal frame spans the workshop walkway, and the top of the portal frame is higher than a preset height of the workshop walkway. Several cable support arms 5 are provided on the portal frame. A cable storage module 6 is provided on one side of the portal frame to store redundant cables 7. The cable storage module includes a vertical bracket and several horizontally arranged positioning shafts fixed on the vertical bracket. Each bracket end is equipped with a limit baffle, and the surface of the upper limit baffle is provided with a hanging device for suspending the welding machine wire feeding mechanism. At least two positioning shafts in the same column form a group, and each redundant cable is wound on the corresponding group of positioning shafts. A welding machine support platform 2 is arranged on the corresponding side of the portal frame. The platform adopts angle steel components to form a rigid connection structure through continuous welds. Each installation position is laid with a load-bearing steel plate with end openings to fix the welding machine body. The power supply cable is connected to the welding machine terminal through the opening of the steel plate. The welding equipment power supply 1 is neatly placed on the welding machine support platform 2. This support platform consists of a welded angle steel frame and load-bearing steel plates with openings. The load-bearing steel plates are arranged along the installation slots to support the welding machine, and their open structure facilitates the laying of welding cables and connection to the ground wire.
[0017] Furthermore, the limiting baffle is a circular plate with a diameter larger than that of the positioning shaft.
[0018] Furthermore, the portal frame consists of two side-by-side frames, comprising four parallel columns. A crossbeam is positioned between two columns on the same side, with an arc-shaped section at the connection between the crossbeam and the column. A connecting crossbar is provided between the two side-by-side frames, and the connecting crossbar connecting the two crossbeams serves as the cable support arm. A permanent rigid connection is achieved between the components via continuous welds.
[0019] The portal frame is formed by bending the angle steel main frame to form a portal frame structure. The portal frame 3 is connected to the main frame by welding several cable brackets 5 to form an integral load-bearing structure.
[0020] Furthermore, the cable support arm is lower than the crossbeam by a certain height, and the cable support arm and the crossbeam are connected by a transition part with a certain curvature. The cable support arm 5 serves as the support mechanism for the cable 7, and its height is designed to be lower than the portal frame to form a physical anti-fall-off barrier.
[0021] Furthermore, a corner limiting handrail 4 is provided at the arc-shaped portion to limit the displacement of the cable 7 at the corner. In this embodiment, there are four corner limiting handrails 4.
[0022] Furthermore, the bottom of the portal frame is mounted on the ground via a welding machine support platform 2. The welding machine support platform 2 of this support system primarily bears the load and provides balance for the welding equipment, ensuring the stability of the overall support system.
[0023] The cable storage module 6 stores redundant cables 7 in an orderly spiral winding manner, avoiding mechanical damage caused by cables dragging on the ground, eliminating messy cables on the ground, making the work site neat and beautiful, and achieving reliable fixation of cables 7 on the isolation bracket.
[0024] The isolation bracket of this utility model effectively restricts the position of the cable 7, ensures that the cable 7 is separated from the safety passage, prevents accidents that may be caused by the negligence of the staff, and ensures the normal operation of the production equipment.
[0025] The specific installation process of this utility model is as follows:
[0026] 1. Position and install before use
[0027] Based on the workshop layout, the location of the pedestrian walkway is determined. The number and installation location of cable isolation brackets are calculated according to the effective width of the walkway and the distribution of equipment workstations. The bracket components are transported to the designated workstations, and the welding machine support platform 2 is securely fixed to the ground using expansion bolts. After the storage module 6 is welded to the ground, a quality inspection is performed to ensure the structural integrity and load-bearing reliability of the brackets.
[0028] Based on the routing of the welding equipment cable 7, arrange all cables 7 crossing the sidewalk in parallel on suitable cable isolation brackets, and secure them to the cable support arm 5 with cable ties. The cables are then neatly arranged and secured side-by-side via the support arm. After passing through the safety passage, wrap 30-50 meter sections of cable one by one around the cable storage module 6. Connect the wire feeding mechanism and welding cable of the welding equipment to the cable ends. The wire feeding mechanism is suspended from the upper positioning device (1.5m above the ground). Installation complete.
[0029] 2. Use of the work site
[0030] When using the welding machine, remove the wire feeding mechanism, unwind the welding cable to the required length, and begin welding. After the operation is completed, first wind the cable onto the receiver, then hang the feeding mechanism on the locator to store the welding cable.
[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein.
