Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of pier leveling drive technology, specifically to a pier leveling drive device. Background Technology
[0002] The central pier is the pier located in the middle of the bridge structure. It is mainly used to support the beam structure above the bridge and to transfer the load to the foundation. The central pier rotation drive device is the core equipment in bridge rotation construction technology. When the bridge needs to cross a busy traffic section, in order to avoid traffic interruption or environmental damage during construction, rotation construction can be used. Specifically, the beam and central pier are first cast in the prefabrication site on the side of the obstacle. Then, the central pier and beam are rotated to the design position by the rotation drive device to complete the bridge closure. This helps to reduce the impact on existing traffic and the environment and improve construction safety.
[0003] Current pier leveling drive devices often only use a single motor to apply driving force to assist the pier leveling. This method has the drawbacks of low driving efficiency and lack of self-locking protection. Furthermore, it generally does not have an active lubrication structure, which leads to high frictional wear and affects the service life of the device. Based on this, we propose a new type of pier leveling drive device. Utility Model Content

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0014] (1) The pier-side rotation drive device optimizes its structure by installing active gears, etc. On the one hand, the user can control the servo motors inside the three drive housings to start through the PLC controller, and then drive the active gears to rotate through the transmission action of the worm and worm wheel. At this time, the three active gears will drive the driven gears to rotate, and then drive through multiple servo motors. With the gear meshing and transmission, it can provide strong driving force to ensure the smooth rotation of the bridge. On the other hand, by utilizing the sliding guide action between the limit sliders distributed on the pier-side rotation body and the corresponding annular limit slide cavities set on the base, as well as the self-locking effect generated when the worm wheel pushes the worm in the opposite direction, the smoothness of the pier-side rotation body can be improved, and the reverse loosening and rotation of the pier-side rotation body can be avoided, thus optimizing the efficiency of the pier-side rotation drive.
[0015] (2) The intermediate pier flat drive device optimizes its performance by installing an intermediate oil distribution main pipe, etc. The PLC controller controls the oil pump to start, and through the action of the rotary joint, lubricating oil can be continuously introduced into the intermediate oil distribution main pipe inside the rotating driven gear. Then, the lubricating oil will flow to the outer edge of the driven gear through four first oil distribution branch pipes, which can realize the lubrication protection between the driven gear and the driving gear. The lubricating oil will also flow to the annular limiting slide cavity corresponding to the edge of the intermediate pier rotating body through four second oil distribution branch pipes, realizing the lubrication protection between the annular limiting slide cavity and the limiting slider.

[0026] A speed sensor 17 is installed between the servo motor 1 and the worm gear 16, and rotary bearings are respectively provided between the worm wheel 15 and the worm gear 16 and the drive housing 2.
[0027] In use, the speed sensor 17 is used to monitor and provide feedback on the speed of the output shaft of the servo motor 1 in real time, so that the PLC controller 9 can accurately control the operation of the drive motor based on the feedback information.
[0028] Limiting sliders 18 are evenly arranged on the outer side wall of the rotating body 5 of the middle pier, and an annular limiting slide cavity 19 matching the limiting sliders 18 is provided on the top of the base 3.
[0029] In use, on the one hand, the user can control the servo motors 1 inside the three drive housings 2 to start through the PLC controller 9. Then, through the transmission action formed by the worm 16 and worm wheel 15, the drive gear 11 is driven to rotate. At this time, the three drive gears 11 will drive the driven gear 12 to rotate. Then, through the multiple servo motors 1, and with the gear meshing and transmission, a strong driving force can be provided to ensure the smooth rotation of the bridge. On the other hand, by utilizing the sliding guide action between the limit sliders 18 distributed on the pier rotating body 5 and the corresponding annular limit sliding cavity 19 set on the base 3, as well as the self-locking effect generated when the worm wheel 15 pushes the worm 16 in the opposite direction, the stability of the pier rotating body 5 during rotation can be improved, and the reverse loosening and rotation of the pier rotating body 5 can be avoided, thus optimizing the efficiency of the pier horizontal rotation drive.
[0030] An intermediate oil distribution main pipe 13 is provided between the rotating body 5 of the middle pier and the driven gear 12. The intermediate oil distribution main pipe 13 is provided with a first oil distribution branch pipe 14 and a second oil distribution branch pipe 20 extending to the edges of the driven gear 12 and the rotating body 5 of the middle pier, respectively.
[0031] The top of the lubricating oil storage tank 8 is provided with an oil filling port 10, and a sealing plug is threaded onto the oil filling port 10;
[0032] The input end of the oil pump 7 is connected to the bottom of the lubricating oil storage tank 8 via a connecting pipe;
[0033] There are four of each of the first oil distribution branch pipe 14 and the second oil distribution branch pipe 20. The first oil distribution branch pipe 14 and the second oil distribution branch pipe 20 are arranged at equal angles on the middle oil distribution main pipe 13.
[0034] A rotary joint 6 is provided between the intermediate oil distribution main pipe 13 and the oil pump 7. A mechanical seal is provided on the rotary joint 6 to improve the sealing and leakage protection of the device.
[0035] During use, the PLC controller 9 controls the oil pump 7 to start. Through the action of the rotary joint 6, lubricating oil can be continuously introduced into the central oil distribution main pipe 13 inside the rotating driven gear 12. Then, the lubricating oil will flow to the outer edge of the driven gear 12 through the four first oil distribution branch pipes 14. This can achieve lubrication protection between the driven gear 12 and the driving gear 11. The lubricating oil will also flow to the annular limiting slide cavity 19 corresponding to the edge of the rotating body 5 of the middle block through the four second oil distribution branch pipes 20.

[0036] There are three driving gears 11, which are arranged at equal angles around the driven gear 12.
[0037] The worm gear 15 is fixed at the middle position of the bottom and at the middle position of the top of the drive gear 11. A rotary bearing is provided between the bottom of the drive gear 11 and the base 3.
[0038] In this embodiment, when in use: An external power supply is connected, and the user fixes the rotating body 5 of the middle pier and the bottom of the corresponding middle pier. Then, the user can control the servo motors 1 inside the three drive housings 2 via the PLC controller 9. Through the transmission action of the worm gear 16 and worm wheel 15, the driving gear 11 rotates. At this time, the three driving gears 11 drive the driven gear 12 to rotate, which in turn is driven by multiple servo motors 1. Combined with gear meshing and transmission, this provides a strong driving force, ensuring the smooth rotation of the bridge. Simultaneously, the sliding guidance between the limiting sliders 18 distributed on the rotating body 5 of the middle pier and the corresponding annular limiting cavities 19 on the base 3, as well as the self-locking effect generated when the worm wheel 15 pushes the worm gear 16 in the opposite direction, improves the stability of the rotation of the rotating body 5 of the middle pier and prevents it from loosening and rotating in the opposite direction, thus optimizing the efficiency of the horizontal rotation drive of the middle pier. Secondly, the rotational speed sensor 17 monitors and provides feedback on the rotational speed of the output shaft of the servo motor 1 in real time, so that the PLC controller 9 can accurately control the operation of the drive motor based on the feedback information. In addition, the PLC controller 9 controls the oil pump 7 to start, and through the action of the rotary joint 6, lubricating oil can be continuously introduced into the central oil distribution main pipe 13 inside the rotating driven gear 12. Then, the lubricating oil will flow to the outer edge of the driven gear 12 through the four first oil distribution branch pipes 14, which can achieve lubrication protection between the driven gear 12 and the driving gear 11. The lubricating oil will also flow to the annular limiting slide cavity 19 corresponding to the edge of the rotating body 5 of the central support through the four second oil distribution branch pipes 20, achieving lubrication protection between the annular limiting slide cavity 19 and the limiting slider 18. In this way, by providing comprehensive active lubrication to the moving friction parts on the device, the smoothness of the device's rotation drive is improved, frictional wear is avoided, and the service life of the device is extended.
