Detailed Implementation

[0028] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0029] In this utility model, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, outside" in the terminology only represent the orientation of the term in its conventional use or are common terms understood by those skilled in the art, and should not be regarded as a limitation on the term.

[0030] See Figure 1-6 The adjustable spacing lifting clamp shown includes a square tube 1, with a connector on the upper side of the square tube 1, end caps installed at both ends of the square tube 1, a middle partition 21 in the middle of the square tube 1, a rod 22 rotatably mounted on the end cap, an external thread 20 on the outer side of the rod 22, and an inner end rotatably mounted on the middle partition 21. A first hook plate 10 is detachably mounted on the middle of the front side of the square tube 1, and a second hook plate 7 is slidably sleeved on both ends of the rod 22. Vertically penetrating rectangular sliding openings 2 are provided at both ends of the square tube 1, and a through plate 8 penetrating the rectangular sliding openings 2 is provided on the second hook plate 7. A screw nut 19 threadedly engaged with the external thread 20 is provided in the middle of the through plate 8.

[0031] Through the implementation of the above technical solution, the adjustable-spacing lifting clamp is used in pairs, symmetrically installed at both ends of the lifting beam. By rotating the rods 22 at both ends, the spacing between the hook plates can be easily adjusted, allowing multiple pipe fittings to be hooked and lifted simultaneously. Since the spacing between the hook plates is adjustable, pipe fittings of different diameters can be lifted. For example, in one scenario, a connector is used to connect to the lifting beam and slides with it. The lifting beam is also equipped with a swing arm hinged to the connector, which is used to push the connector to slide on the lifting beam to adjust the hook spacing, thereby enabling the hook plates at both ends to hook onto or detach from the pipe fittings.

[0032] In this embodiment, the second hook plate 7 is provided with a square hole that slides with the square tube 1. The through plate 8 is vertically disposed in the square hole. Ear plates 14 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the edge of the square hole on the second hook plate 7. The ear plates 14 are provided with screw holes, and clamping screws 15 are installed in the screw holes. With this arrangement, after the second hook plate 7 is adjusted to the position, the clamping screws 15 are tightened to lock the second hook plate 7 to the side of the square tube 1, thereby increasing the stability of the second hook plate 7.

[0033] In this embodiment, the end cap includes a cover plate 3 and an insertion block 5 inserted into the square tube 1. Bearings 18 are embedded at both ends of the end cap. The outer end of the rod 22 is inserted into the bearings 18, and at least partially protrudes from the cover plate 3, with flat key surfaces 6 on both sides. With this configuration, the rod 22 can be rotated by clamping the flat key surfaces 6 on both sides with a wrench. During rotation, the second hook plate 7 can slide and adjust its position due to the engagement of the external thread 20 and the lead screw nut 19. The bearings 18 reduce the frictional resistance of the rod 22 during rotation.

[0034] In this embodiment, the outer end of the rectangular sliding opening 2 is open, and countersunk holes are provided on both sides of the rectangular sliding opening 2 on the square tube 1. The insertion block 5 is provided with threaded holes corresponding to the countersunk holes, and an internal hexagon screw 4 that can be screwed into the threaded hole is inserted into the countersunk hole. With this arrangement, the insertion block 5 is locked and fixed to the end of the square tube 1 by the internal hexagon screw 4, so as to achieve detachability.

[0035] In this embodiment, a guide strip 23 is provided on the inner side of the square tube 1 at the countersunk hole, and the countersunk hole passes through the guide strip 23. The insertion block 5 is provided with a guide groove that slides with the guide strip 23. This arrangement provides installation guidance and increases the structural strength at the countersunk hole and the connection between the two ends of the square tube 1.

[0036] In this embodiment, the partition plate 21 has shaft holes 24 on both sides to provide rotation for the inner end of the rod 22. The shaft holes 24 provide rotational support for the end of the rod 22. Alternatively, a bearing 18 can be installed in the shaft hole 24, and the inner end of the rod 22 can be inserted into the bearing 18 to improve lubrication.

[0037] In this embodiment, to further provide an installation structure for the first hook plate 10, two mounting plates 11 are symmetrically arranged on the front side of the square tube 1. The first hook plate 10 is inserted into the gap between the two mounting plates 11 and locked in place by locking bolts 12. Both the mounting plates 11 and the first hook plate 10 are provided with mounting through holes corresponding to the locking bolts 12.

[0038] In this embodiment, the bottom of the first hook plate 10 is provided with a rearwardly extending first hook 9, and the bottom of the second hook plate 7 is provided with a rearwardly extending second hook 13 corresponding to the first hook 9. The first hook 9 and the second hook 13 are positioned correspondingly, at the same height, and in the same front-to-back position.

[0039] In this embodiment, the connector includes a connecting seat 16, with pins inserted into its front and rear ends, and sliding bushings 17 sleeved at both ends of the pins. The connecting seat 16 and the sliding bushings 17 allow the connector to be slidably installed in the grooves at both ends of the lifting beam.

[0040] The preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the specific details of the above embodiments. Within the scope of the technical concept of the present invention, various simple modifications can be made to the technical solution of the present invention, and these simple modifications all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0041] It should also be noted that the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any suitable way without contradiction. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, this utility model will not describe the various possible combinations separately.

[0042] Furthermore, various different embodiments of this utility model can be combined in any way, as long as they do not violate the spirit of this utility model, they should also be regarded as the content disclosed by this utility model.
