Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of engine support frame technology, and in particular to a high load-bearing engine support frame. Background Technology

[0002] An engine is a machine that converts other forms of energy into mechanical energy, including internal combustion engines (reciprocating piston engines), external combustion engines (Stirling engines, steam engines, etc.), jet engines, and electric motors. Internal combustion engines, for example, typically convert chemical energy into mechanical energy. The term "engine" can refer to both the power-generating device and the entire machine including the power unit (e.g., gasoline engine, aircraft engine).

[0003] Currently, engine maintenance requires placing the engine on a dedicated mounting bracket for easier operation. However, most existing engine mounts use synchronous movement within a single plane to hold specific engine components. Given the irregular shape of an engine, these existing brackets have a limited range of applications. Furthermore, the overall load-bearing capacity of existing engine mounting brackets is low, and the main load-bearing components have not been structurally reinforced. Utility Model Content

[0004] The summary section of this application is intended to provide a brief overview of the concepts, which will be described in detail in the detailed description section below. This summary section is not intended to identify key or essential features of the claimed technical solutions, nor is it intended to limit the scope of the claimed technical solutions.

[0005] This application aims to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art by providing a high load-bearing engine support frame.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solution, including:

[0007] Support base;

[0008] A first clamping assembly is disposed on the top of the support base. The first clamping assembly is slidably connected to the support base and is used to clamp one end of the engine.

[0009] The second clamping component is disposed on the top of the support base. The second clamping component is slidably connected to the support base. The second clamping component is disposed on one side of the first clamping component. The second clamping component is used to clamp the other end of the engine.

[0010] A drive component is disposed on the support base. The drive component is threadedly connected to the first clamping component and the second clamping component. The drive component is used to drive the first clamping component and the second clamping component to move towards or away from each other.

[0011] The advantage of this application is that it provides a high-load-bearing engine support frame. First, the engine is hoisted between a first clamping assembly and a second clamping assembly. Then, a drive assembly is activated to move the first and second clamping assemblies closer to the engine. When both the first and second clamping assemblies are close to the engine at a preset distance, the drive assembly is controlled to lock their positions. The first clamping assembly then clamps one end of the engine, and the second clamping assembly clamps the other end, thus facilitating engine repair or maintenance. Attached Figure Description

[0030] like Figure 1As shown, in one embodiment of this application, the high load-bearing engine support frame includes: a support base 11, a first clamping assembly 12, a second clamping assembly 13, and a drive assembly 14.

[0031] The first clamping component 12 is disposed on the top of the support base 11 and is slidably connected to the support base 11. The first clamping component 12 is used to clamp one end of the engine.

[0032] The second clamping component 13 is disposed on the top of the support base 11 and is slidably connected to the support base 11. The second clamping component 13 is disposed on one side of the first clamping component 12 and is used to clamp the other end of the engine.

[0033] The drive assembly 14 is disposed on the support base 11. The drive assembly 14 is threadedly connected to the first clamping assembly 12 and the second clamping assembly 13. The drive assembly 14 is used to drive the first clamping assembly 12 and the second clamping assembly 13 to move towards or away from each other.

[0034] Specifically, the structure of the first clamping component 12 is the same as that of the second clamping component 13.

[0035] The first clamping assembly 12 and the second clamping assembly 13 are driven by the drive assembly 14 to move toward or away from each other on the support base 11 to clamp engines of different sizes.

[0036] In this embodiment, the engine is first hoisted between the first clamping assembly 12 and the second clamping assembly 13. Then, the drive assembly 14 is activated to move the first clamping assembly 12 and the second clamping assembly 13 closer to the engine. When both the first clamping assembly 12 and the second clamping assembly 13 are close to the engine at a preset distance, the drive assembly 14 is controlled to lock the positions of the first clamping assembly 12 and the second clamping assembly 13. Then, the first clamping assembly 12 clamps one end of the engine, and the second clamping assembly 13 clamps the other end of the engine, thereby facilitating engine repair or maintenance operations.

[0037] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of this application, the first clamping assembly 12 includes: a support frame 121, a support plate 122, a plurality of clamping members 123, a plurality of locking members 124, and a first motor 125.

[0038] The support frame 121 is slidably disposed on the top of the support base 11, and the support frame 121 is threadedly connected to the drive assembly 14.

[0039] The support plate 122 is disposed on the top of the support frame 121. The support plate 122 is disc-shaped and is rotatably connected to the support frame 121.

[0040] The clamping member 123 is provided in multiple ways, and the multiple clamping members 123 are equidistantly arranged along the circumferential direction of the support plate 122. Each clamping member 123 is rotatably connected to the support plate 122.

[0041] Multiple locking elements 124 are provided, and the number of locking elements 124 is the same as the number of clamping elements 123. The locking elements 124 are disposed on the support plate 122, and each locking element 124 corresponds to one clamping element 123. The locking elements 124 are used to fix the angle between the clamping element 123 and the support plate 122.

[0042] The first motor 125 is fixedly mounted on the support frame 121. The first motor 125 is fixedly connected to the support plate 122. The first motor 125 is used to drive the support plate 122 to rotate.

[0043] Specifically, the number of clamping elements 123 activated varies depending on the circumstances, but at least two clamping elements 123 need to be activated to provide a stable clamping force.

[0044] In this embodiment, the first motor 125 is started to drive the support plate 122 to rotate so that the multiple clamping members 123 on the support plate 122 can clamp the irregularly shaped engine. At the same time, the clamping members 123 can rotate relative to the support plate 122, further increasing the adaptability of the clamping members 123 to engines of different shapes.

[0045] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of this application, the support frame 121 includes: a slide 121a, a first support plate 121b, and a first auxiliary plate 121c.

[0046] The slide block 121a is configured in the shape of an I-beam and is slidably disposed on the top of the support base 11. The slide block 121a is threadedly connected to the drive assembly 14.

[0047] The first support plate 121b is disposed at one end of the slide block 121a, and the first support plate 121b is fixedly connected to the slide block 121a.

[0048] One end of the first auxiliary plate 121c is fixedly connected to the other end of the slide block 121a, and the other end of the first auxiliary plate 121c is fixedly connected to the middle part of the first support plate 121b. The first auxiliary plate 121c, the first support plate 121b, and the slide block 121a form a right-angled triangle structure.

[0049] In this embodiment, the first auxiliary plate 121c, the first bearing plate 121b, and the slide 121a form a right-angled triangle structure to improve the load-bearing capacity of the entire bearing frame 121. At the same time, the I-shaped slide 121a can further improve the stability of the slide 121a moving on the support base 11.

[0050] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment of this application, the clamping member 123 includes: a first support base 123a, a first sliding plate 123b, a first threaded rod 123c, a second motor 123d, and a contact plate 123e.

[0051] One end of the first support 123a is rotatably connected to the support disk 122.

[0052] The first sliding plate 123b is inserted into the other end of the first support 123a.

[0053] The first threaded rod 123c is rotatably disposed inside the first support 123a, and the first threaded rod 123c is threadedly connected to the first sliding plate 123b.

[0054] The second motor 123d is fixedly installed inside the first support 123a. The second motor 123d is fixedly connected to the first threaded rod 123c. The second motor 123d is used to drive the first threaded rod 123c to rotate.

[0055] The contact plate 123e is fixedly connected to the first sliding plate 123b, and the contact plate 123e is used to contact the surface of the engine.

[0056] Specifically, the part of the contact plate 123e that contacts the engine is covered with rubber.

[0057] In this embodiment, by starting the second motor 123d to drive the first threaded rod 123c to rotate, the threaded connection between the first threaded rod 123c and the first sliding plate 123b, and the connection between the first sliding plate 123b and the first support seat 123a, the first sliding plate 123b slides in the first support seat 123a, thereby synchronously driving the contact plate 123e to move closer to or away from the engine.

[0058] like Figure 4-6 As shown, in one embodiment of this application, the locking member 124 includes: a first bolt 124a and a first locking block 124b.

[0059] The first bolt 124a is disposed on the support plate 122 and passes through the first support seat 123a.

[0060] The first locking block 124b is slidably disposed on the support plate 122, the first locking block 124b is inserted into the first support seat 123a, and the first bolt 124a is threadedly connected to the first locking block 124b.

[0061] The first locking block 124b includes a first slider 15 and a plurality of protrusions 16.

[0062] The first slider 15 is slidably disposed on the support plate 122, and the first slider 15 is threadedly connected to the first bolt 124a.

[0063] The protrusion 16 is provided in multiple ways, and the multiple protrusions 16 are equidistantly arranged along the circumferential direction of the first bolt 124a.

[0064] The first support 123a has a plurality of locking grooves 17, which are equidistantly arranged along the circumferential direction of the first bolt 124a.

[0065] Each of the protrusions 16 is inserted into one of the locking slots 17.

[0066] In this embodiment, by rotating the first bolt 124a, the sliding connection between the first slider 15 and the support plate 122 and the threaded connection between the first slider 15 and the first bolt 124a are utilized to drive the first slider 15 to slide on the support plate 122. When the first slider 15 slides on the support plate 122, it will simultaneously drive multiple protrusions 16 to insert into or disengage from different locking grooves 17.

[0067] When multiple protrusions 16 are inserted into different locking slots 17, the angle between the first support base 123a and the support plate 122 is locked. When multiple protrusions 16 are disengaged from different locking slots 17, the first support base 123a can rotate on the support plate 122.

[0068] like Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment of this application, the drive assembly 14 includes: a second threaded rod 141, a first limiting rod 142, and a third motor 143.

[0069] The second threaded rod 141 is rotatably mounted on the support base 11. The second threaded rod 141 is threadedly connected to the slide block 121a and to the second clamping assembly 13.

[0070] The first limiting rod 142 is fixedly mounted on the support base 11, the first limiting rod 142 is slidably connected to the slide block 121a, and the first limiting rod 142 is slidably connected to the second clamping assembly 13.

[0071] The third motor 143 is fixedly mounted on the support base 11. The third motor 143 is fixedly connected to the second threaded rod 141. The third motor 143 is used to drive the second threaded rod 141 to rotate.

[0072] In this embodiment, by starting the third motor 143 to drive the second threaded rod 141 to rotate, the threaded connection between the second threaded rod 141 and the slide 121a and the second clamping assembly 13 is used to drive the entire first clamping assembly 12 and the second clamping assembly 13 to move on the support base 11.
