Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of safety protection technology and equipment for shuttle buses, specifically a shuttle bus accompanying drag chain device. Background Technology

[0002] The shuttle car's operating line is connected to the electrical control equipment via a tank chain in the trench. During operation, the shuttle car constantly moves left and right to transport the kiln car. The tank chain rubs against the trench cover repeatedly during transport, resulting in a high failure rate. After a period of time, typically about a week, the aluminum alloy tank chain will wear through, damaging the internal line and causing a short circuit. As a crucial link in the entire production line, a failure in the shuttle car will have a significant impact on production. Secondly, because the tank chain is enclosed, troubleshooting and repair are extremely difficult once a fault occurs, making it impossible to accurately pinpoint the fault. Repairs often require replacing the entire tank chain and internal line, resulting in long repair times and high costs, significantly impacting production. Furthermore, troubleshooting requires working inside the pit where the shuttle car operates, posing a significant safety hazard. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0005] This utility model provides a shuttle bus accompanying cable chain device.

[0006] The system includes a shuttle car pit, a kiln car transfer shuttle car, a shuttle car accompanying cable, an accompanying cable rail, and an accompanying cable post. The shuttle car pit contains a track, and the kiln car transfer shuttle car is installed within the pit via its wheels and the track for kiln car transfer. One end of the accompanying cable is connected to the power interface of the kiln car transfer shuttle car, and the other end is connected to the accompanying cable rail via a connector. The accompanying cable rail is installed above the shuttle car pit to guide and support the accompanying cable, allowing it to slide along the rail as the kiln car transfer shuttle car moves. The accompanying cable post is located at the end of the shuttle car pit, and the portion of the accompanying cable near the power source bypasses or is fixed to the accompanying cable post to ensure the orderly movement of the accompanying cable when the kiln car transfer shuttle car moves.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] The technical solutions 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, and 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.

[0018] Example:

[0019] like Figs. 1-3 As shown, this utility model provides a shuttle bus following cable chain device.

[0020] The system includes a shuttle car pit 1, a kiln car transfer shuttle car 2, a shuttle car accompanying cable 3, an accompanying cable slide rail 4, and an accompanying cable post 5. A track is laid inside the shuttle car pit 1. The kiln car transfer shuttle car 2 is installed in the shuttle car pit 1 via wheels that engage with the track, enabling the transfer of kiln cars. One end of the shuttle car accompanying cable 3 is connected to the power interface of the kiln car transfer shuttle car 2, and the other end is connected to the accompanying cable slide rail 4 via a connector. The accompanying cable slide rail 4 is installed on the… Above the shuttle car pit 1, a guide and support are provided for the shuttle car accompanying cable 3, so that the shuttle car accompanying cable 3 can slide along the accompanying cable slide rail 4 as the kiln car transfer shuttle car 2 moves. The accompanying cable post 5 is set at the end of the shuttle car pit 1. The part of the shuttle car accompanying cable 3 near the power supply end passes around or is fixed to the accompanying cable post 5 to ensure the orderly state of the shuttle car accompanying cable 3 when the kiln car transfer shuttle car 2 moves.

[0021] By setting up components such as the shuttle car pit 1, the kiln car transfer shuttle car 2, the shuttle car accompanying cable 3, the accompanying cable slide rail 4, and the accompanying cable support post 5, the following system is achieved: when the kiln car transfer shuttle car 2 moves within the shuttle car pit 1, the shuttle car accompanying cable 3 can slide along the accompanying cable slide rail 4. Simultaneously, the accompanying cable support post 5 ensures the orderly arrangement of the cable, avoiding the problem of friction between the traditional tank chain and the pit cover, reducing the failure rate, and minimizing short circuits caused by cable damage. This ensures the stable operation of the entire production line and improves production efficiency.

[0022] Optionally, the track laid in the shuttle car pit 1 is a number of parallel tracks 6, and the bottom sides of the kiln car transfer shuttle car 2 are respectively provided with wheel sets adapted to the number of parallel tracks 6. The wheel sets include a number of wheels for stably supporting the movement of the kiln car transfer shuttle car 2 in the shuttle car pit 1.

[0023] Several parallel tracks 6 are laid, and wheel sets adapted to the parallel tracks 6 are set on both sides of the bottom of the kiln car transfer shuttle 2. Each wheel set includes several wheels, which can stably support the kiln car transfer shuttle 2 to move in the shuttle pit 1. The cooperation of multiple wheels and tracks makes the shuttle more stable during movement, reduces damage to components such as cables caused by shaking or tilting, and further improves the reliability and stability of the equipment.

[0024] Optionally, the parallel tracks 6 are evenly spaced apart, and the wheels are evenly spaced apart.

[0025] The uniform spacing helps ensure that the kiln car transfer shuttle 2 is subjected to uniform force during movement. The uniform force distribution can reduce the wear of the rails or wheels caused by excessive local force, extend the service life of the rails and wheels, reduce the maintenance cost of the equipment, and at the same time, help improve the stability and accuracy of the shuttle's movement, thereby better ensuring the smooth operation of the entire production process.

[0026] Optionally, the accompanying cable tow post 5 is a cylindrical structure with a smooth coating or a wear-resistant sleeve on its outer surface. The portion of the shuttle vehicle accompanying cable tow line 3 near the power supply end is fixed to the accompanying cable tow post 5 by wrapping or clamping to reduce cable wear during movement.

[0027] The accompanying cable tow post 5 is designed as a cylindrical structure, with a smooth coating or wear-resistant sleeve on its outer surface. The portion of the shuttle vehicle's accompanying cable 3 near the power source is fixed to the accompanying cable tow post 5 by wrapping or clamping. This effectively reduces cable wear during movement. The smooth coating or wear-resistant sleeve reduces friction between the cable and the tow post, preventing damage to the cable due to excessive friction. The wrapping or clamping method ensures the stability of the cable on the tow post, preventing the cable from loosening or falling off during shuttle vehicle movement, further improving cable lifespan and equipment reliability.

[0028] Optionally, the shuttle bus accompanying cable 3 includes multiple cables, the multiple cables are wrapped with a flexible protective sleeve, and the flexible protective sleeve is provided with multiple spaced reinforcing ribs. The reinforcing ribs extend along the length direction of the shuttle bus accompanying cable 3 to enhance the tensile strength and wear resistance of the shuttle bus accompanying cable 3.

[0029] The shuttle bus accompanying cable 3 comprises multiple cables, all encased in a flexible protective sleeve 7. Multiple spaced reinforcing ribs 8 extending along the length of the flexible protective sleeve 7 enhance the tensile strength and abrasion resistance of the shuttle bus accompanying cable 3. The flexible protective sleeve 7 protects the cables from external environmental corrosion and damage, while the reinforcing ribs 8 further improve the cable's tensile strength, enabling it to withstand greater tension during shuttle bus movement without easily breaking. Simultaneously, the reinforcing ribs 8 increase the cable's abrasion resistance, reducing friction damage from surrounding objects during movement, extending the cable's service life, and lowering the probability of equipment failure.

[0030] Traditional shuttle buses use a tank chain to connect to the electrical control equipment. During transportation, the tank chain rubs against the trench cover repeatedly, leading to frequent malfunctions. Typically, the aluminum alloy tank chain will wear through in about a week, damaging the internal wiring harness. In contrast, the shuttle bus following cable device of this application, through the cooperation of following cable trails, following cable slide rails 4, and following cable trailing posts 5, allows the cable to slide along the slide rail as the shuttle bus moves, avoiding direct friction between the cable and the trench cover. This greatly reduces the failure rate caused by friction and ensures the stable operation of the equipment.

[0031] The installation of the accompanying cable trailing post 5 and the method of fixing the cable ensure the orderly state of the cable during the movement of the shuttle vehicle, reduce cable tangling and pulling, lower the risk of cable damage due to excessive bending or pulling, and further improve the reliability of the equipment.

[0032] The uniform spacing of the tracks and wheels in this application ensures that the kiln car transfer shuttle 2 is subjected to uniform force when it moves, reduces local wear on the tracks and wheels, and extends their service life. At the same time, the smooth coating or wear-resistant sleeve of the accompanying cable trailing post 5 and the reasonable cable fixing method also reduce cable wear and reduce the replacement frequency of cables and other components, thereby reducing the maintenance cost of the equipment.

[0033] Traditional tank chains have a closed structure, making troubleshooting and repair very difficult once a fault occurs. Often, the entire tank chain and its wiring harness need to be replaced, resulting in long repair times and high costs. In contrast, the device in this application has a relatively simple structure, and the cable routing and connection methods are clearer. Once a fault occurs, it is easier to accurately locate the fault point. During repair, only the faulty component needs to be replaced or repaired, which greatly shortens the repair time and reduces repair costs.

[0034] Because the device of this application reduces the equipment failure rate and minimizes production interruptions caused by equipment failure, it ensures the continuous operation of the entire production line, thereby improving production efficiency. As an important part of the entire production line, the stable operation of the shuttle car is crucial for the smooth progress of the entire production process.

[0035] In traditional tank chain troubleshooting, workers need to work in the pit where the shuttle vehicle operates, which is quite dangerous. However, the device in this application is relatively easy to troubleshoot, reducing the time and frequency of workers working in the pit and lowering the safety risks faced by workers. The high reliability and stability of the equipment reduce the occurrence of accidents caused by equipment failure, such as fires that may be caused by cable short circuits, and provide a safer working environment for the production site.

[0036] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this 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 of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
