Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of hoisting technology, and specifically relates to a foldable lightweight hoisting clamp. Background Technology

[0002] Lightweight lifting clamps are typically made of high-strength materials such as alloy steel and feature a fixed clamping arm length. They rely on mechanical structures or cranes to achieve clamping functionality. Their core components include rigid clamping plates, locking devices, and lifting interfaces. They clamp objects through single-point or double-point contact and are suitable for conventional lifting scenarios such as warehousing and material handling, and production line assembly. These clamps rely on mechanical rigidity to ensure stability. However, traditional lightweight lifting clamps suffer from insufficient adaptability due to their fixed clamping arm length. During operation, it is necessary to frequently change clamps of different specifications or add pads to adjust the height, which is cumbersome and time-consuming. They lack flexibility in handling lifting scenarios of different sizes or heights, which can easily lead to reduced efficiency. Furthermore, the design of traditional lightweight lifting clamps with a single or few clamping plates results in a limited clamping contact surface, which can lead to concentrated force and the risk of object slippage or localized deformation. To address the problems mentioned above, we propose a foldable lightweight lifting clamp. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a foldable lightweight lifting clamp, which has the advantages of adjustable clamp arm length and adjustable clamp plate.

[0004] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a foldable lightweight lifting clamp, including a traction ring, with connecting plates sleeved on both sides of the surface of the traction ring, and clamping arms A are hinged at the bottom of the front side of the left connecting plate and the bottom of the back side of the right connecting plate, and at the top of the back side of the front clamping arm A and the top of the front side of the rear clamping arm A, respectively. Openings are provided at the bottom of the front and back sides of the clamping arm A, and a locking rod is sleeved inside the top opening. The front end away from the middle and the rear end near the middle of the locking rod are provided with slots, and clamping arms B are provided outside the slots. An adjustment mechanism is provided on the opposite side of the two clamping arms B.

[0005] The above technical solution involves: unscrewing the limit nut, removing the clamping rod, adjusting to the required length, inserting the clamping rod into the corresponding openings and slots of clamping arms A and B, and tightening the limit nut. The clamping arm design, which allows for vertical length adjustment, significantly improves the flexibility of use and work efficiency. Its telescopic structure can quickly adapt to different lifting requirements, and height adjustment can be completed without replacing parts, reducing operation steps. When folded, it is compact in size, easy to carry and store, and is especially suitable for work scenarios with limited space or frequent movement. It maintains lightweight characteristics, reduces the intensity of manual handling, and is widely applicable to diverse industrial fields such as logistics and maintenance.

[0006] The present invention is further configured such that the adjustment structure includes a clamping box, the clamping box is bolted to the bottom of the two clamping arms B on opposite sides, the top of the inside of the clamping box is provided with a slot, a buckle is engaged inside the slot in the middle, a spring is bolted to the bottom of the buckle, a moving block is bolted to the bottom of the spring, and a clamping plate is bolted to the side of the clamping box and the moving block away from the clamping arms B.

[0007] The above technical solution employs a clamping box. When the moving block is pulled outward, the buckle loses its engagement with the slot. The buckle moves along the path of the slot and the top of the clamping box, causing the spring to contract. After adjusting to the required length, the buckle moves to the vicinity of the corresponding slot, the spring rebounds, and the buckle engages with the corresponding slot. The foldable and stretchable clamping plate design allows for free adjustment of the clamping length, flexibly adapting to different sizes of objects to be lifted. The three clamping plates on both sides work synchronously to form a multi-point uniform force distribution, significantly improving clamping stability and safety, effectively preventing objects from slipping or being deformed by local pressure. The folded structure is compact, facilitating storage and transportation, and saving operating space.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that a slider is bolted to the bottom of the movable block, and the front and rear ends of the bottom of the clamping box are provided with sliding grooves, and the inside of the sliding grooves is slidably connected to the surface of the slider.

[0009] The above technical solution uses sliders and grooves to limit the movement of the moving block.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that the rear end of the surface of the clamp rod away from the middle is threaded.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, a limit nut can be set to limit the movement of the clamp rod by setting it as a thread.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that a limit nut is threadedly connected to the rear end of the clamping rod surface away from the middle.

[0013] The above technical solution involves setting a limit nut to limit the movement of the locking rod.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that a damper is sleeved inside the spring.

[0015] The above technical solution involves setting a damper to limit the movement of the spring.

[0016] The present invention is further configured such that three clamps are located on one side.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, by setting it to three points, multiple points of uniform force can be formed, which greatly improves the clamping stability and safety.

[0018] The present invention is further provided that an anti-slip pad is adhered to the inner side of the clamping plate.

[0019] The above technical solution, by setting anti-slip pads, can prevent the clamps from slipping when held.

[0020] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] 1. This utility model significantly improves the flexibility and efficiency of use through the design of the clamp arm with adjustable length. Its telescopic structure can quickly adapt to the hoisting needs of different heights. Height adjustment can be completed without changing parts, reducing operation steps. The compact size after folding makes it easy to carry and store. It is especially suitable for work scenarios with limited space or frequent movement. It maintains lightweight characteristics, reduces the intensity of manual handling, and is widely applicable to diverse industrial fields such as logistics and maintenance.

[0022] 2. This utility model features a foldable and stretchable clamping plate design, which allows for free adjustment of the clamping length and flexible adaptation to objects of different sizes. The three clamping plates on both sides work in sync to form a multi-point uniform force distribution, which greatly improves the clamping stability and safety, effectively preventing objects from slipping or being deformed by local pressure. The structure is compact after folding, making it easy to store and transport, and saving working space. Attached Figure Description
