Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lifting tool technology, and in particular to an adjustable lifting tool for clamping column-type aluminum profile coils. Background Technology

[0002] Column-type aluminum coils refer to continuously rolled, hollow aluminum materials. During the production process, aluminum coils often need to be transported to designated locations. To protect and improve the handling efficiency of aluminum coils, they are sometimes first carried on pallets and then transported by lifting equipment. Currently, most of the limiting structures of lifting equipment are designed for pallets, and the limiting measures for coils are too simple. When the lifting equipment is transported at high speed, the coil may tip over and fall, causing structural damage to the coil and safety accidents. It also cannot meet the limiting requirements of various types of coils. Summary of the Invention

[0003] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the overly simple limiting measures of existing lifting devices for aluminum coils, which result in aluminum coils falling off and failing to meet the limiting requirements of various types of coils. In this way, an adjustable lifting device for clamping column-type aluminum coils is provided, which can effectively reduce the phenomenon of aluminum coils tipping over during high-speed transportation, and can also limit different types of aluminum coils, thus improving versatility.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides an adjustable lifting tool for clamping column-type aluminum profile coils, comprising:

The first connecting rod and the second connecting rod are distributed on both sides of the track beam along a first direction, and the upper ends of the first connecting rod and the second connecting rod are slidably connected to the slide rail.

[0014] In one embodiment of the present invention, two clamps are distributed on both sides of the track beam along a second direction, and two limiting members are distributed on both sides of the track beam along the second direction, the second direction being perpendicular to the first direction.

[0031] Two clamps are respectively disposed on both sides of the track beam 1 and located below the track beam 1. The drive assembly drives the two clamps to move closer to or further away from each other.

[0032] The adjustable spreader described in this embodiment has a drive assembly that adjusts the clamping range of the spreader by driving the two clamps to move closer or further apart, meeting the handling needs of various roll materials. After the two clamps grip the roll material, two limiting members clamp the roll material from both sides, achieving the limitation of the roll material and effectively reducing the phenomenon of roll material tipping over during high-speed handling. The drive assembly adjusts the distance between the two limiting members by driving them to move closer or further apart, enabling the two limiting members to clamp different types of roll materials, thus improving the compatibility of the spreader.

[0033] In one embodiment of this utility model, a lifting beam 5 is rotatably connected to the track beam 1. The lifting beam 5 is used to bear the weight of the track beam 1, two clamps, two limiting members, pallet 8, workpiece 9 (aluminum profile coil) and drive assembly. The lifting beam 5 is connected to four pulleys 7, which are used to connect to wire ropes. The wire ropes are connected to the crane hoisting mechanism to realize the lifting, lateral movement and balance of the lifting beam 5.

[0034] In one embodiment of this utility model, a rotating mechanism is further included, which is provided with a rotary motor 63, an external gear 62 and an internal gear 61.

The first and second connecting rods are distributed on both sides of the track beam 1 along a first direction X, and a clearance space is formed between the first and second connecting rods. The first and second connecting rods use the clearance space to avoid workpieces 9 of different diameters, so that the third connecting rod can support the pallet 8 from the middle. The upper ends of the first and second connecting rods are slidably connected to the slide rail 12.

[0037] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the upper ends of the first connecting rods 41 and 44 and the second connecting rods 46 and 43 are all fixedly connected to sliders, which are slidably connected to the slide rail 12.

The first driving component 3a and the third driving component 3c are disposed on both sides of the track beam 1, and the second driving component 3b is disposed in the middle of the track beam 1. The first driving component 3a drives two first connecting rods 41 and 44 distributed along the first direction X to move closer to or further away from each other, and the second driving component 3b drives two second connecting rods 43 and 46 distributed along the first direction X to move closer to or further away from each other.

[0042] Reference Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, both limiting members are plate-shaped and are parallel and vertically arranged. The plate-shaped limiting members have a large limiting area and can limit various types of coil materials. The two limiting members have a clamping surface on the side closest to each other. The clamping surface matches the peripheral side of the aluminum coil material, and the limiting members can fit tightly against the peripheral side of the workpiece 9.

The suspension beam 5 slewing bearing 11 and the track beam slewing bearing 51 are rotatably connected.

[0047] The working principle of the adjustable lifting device described in this utility model is as follows:

[0048] The workpiece 9 is placed on the pallet 8. The crane moves the two clamps to both sides of the workpiece 9. The crane hoisting mechanism lowers the height of the lifting device until the third link of the two clamps is lower than the pallet 8. Then, the drive assembly drives the two clamps to move closer to each other until both third links are at the bottom of the pallet 8. Next, the drive assembly drives the two limiting parts to move closer to each other until they clamp the sides of the workpiece 9. Then, the crane raises the lifting device so that the two third links lift the pallet 8. Finally, the crane moves the lifting device to transport the workpiece 9 to the designated position.

[0049] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
