Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of port operations, and in particular to an automatic snow removal device for track-mounted mechanical equipment. Background Technology

[0002] With the booming development of the shipping industry, ports are continuously expanding in scale, and the number of loading and unloading equipment at port terminals is constantly increasing. To ensure the stability and safety of the operating equipment, most large loading and unloading equipment in ports adopts a rail-based operation mode. However, due to the influence of climate conditions, northern ports experience frequent snowfalls in winter. After snowfall, the snow accumulation on the tracks of the loading and unloading equipment can seriously hinder the normal operation of the equipment, thereby adversely affecting the production operations of the terminal.

[0003] Currently, the main solution to this problem relies on clearing snow from the tracks of rail-mounted machinery after snowfall before production operations can commence. However, because snow covers the rails, large-scale snow removal machinery is difficult to operate, and manual snow removal is usually the only option. This method is not only labor-intensive but also inefficient, far from meeting the urgent need for ports to quickly resume production operations after severe weather. Therefore, there is an urgent need to introduce innovative technologies to effectively solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an automatic snow removal device for track-mounted mechanical equipment, so as to solve the problems of high labor intensity and low efficiency of manual snow removal in the prior art, which cannot meet the needs of timely resumption of port production operations.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: an automatic snow removal device for track-type mechanical equipment, comprising: a snow removal plate and a snow guide groove, wherein the snow removal plate comprises a first sub-plate and a second sub-plate arranged at an angle, and the top of the first sub-plate and the second sub-plate are respectively provided with the snow guide groove, the snow guide groove being used to guide the snow to slide naturally away from the track area.

[0006] The beneficial effects of this invention are: the snow removal blades, positioned at a certain angle, can effectively guide snow to move to both sides, reducing accumulation in the middle, ensuring smooth operation of track-mounted mechanical equipment, and minimizing residue; the snow removal blades, in conjunction with snow guide troughs, can guide snow to both sides, preventing accumulation. This improves equipment operating efficiency and reduces the workload of personnel.

[0007] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0008] Furthermore, the snow guide groove extends along an arc from the top of the first sub-plate and the second sub-plate toward the direction away from the inside of the snow removal plate.

[0009] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the arc design of the snow guide trough should enable it to effectively disperse snow accumulation and reduce the impact on the track.

[0010] Furthermore, a snow removal pad is provided on the outer side of the first sub-plate and the second sub-plate near the bottom.

[0011] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the snow removal mat can effectively remove snow from the track and improve the snow removal effect.

[0012] Furthermore, the snow removal pad is a rubber pad, and the snow removal pad is connected to the first sub-plate and the second sub-plate respectively by fasteners.

[0013] The advantages of adopting the above-mentioned further solution are: the elastic properties of the rubber pads prevent scratches or wear on the track surface caused by hard metal contact, achieving zero-damage protection of the track surface while ensuring snow removal power. Independent assembly and disassembly of the snow removal pads are achieved through fasteners such as bolts. When a rubber pad wears out, only the damaged individual pad needs to be replaced, eliminating the need for overall disassembly, thus improving maintenance efficiency and realizing a modular design for the snow removal pads.

[0014] Furthermore, the inner sides of the first sub-plate and the second sub-plate are respectively provided with a plurality of vertically parallel reinforcing ribs; the reinforcing ribs on the first sub-plate and the reinforcing ribs on the second sub-plate are arranged symmetrically.

[0015] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the symmetrically arranged reinforcing ribs construct a mirror support structure. When the snow removal plate is subjected to lateral snow pressure, the two sides of the rib plate form a mechanical coupling, reducing the possibility of unilateral deformation of the snow removal plate.

[0016] Furthermore, the pair of symmetrically arranged reinforcing ribs are connected by a fixed bracket.

[0017] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that the bending stiffness of the snow removal board is improved by constructing a spatial truss system through a fixed bracket.

[0018] Furthermore, multiple fixing brackets are provided at lateral intervals between the nearest pair of reinforcing ribs.

[0019] The advantages of adopting the above-mentioned further solutions are: the selective reinforcement solution reduces the amount of fixed supports used, lowers the overall cost, and at the same time maintains the structural integrity.

[0020] Furthermore, the fixed bracket is L-shaped and includes a horizontal section and a vertical section. The vertical section is connected to the reinforcing rib, and the horizontal section is connected to the front side of the trolley wheel in the direction of travel.

[0021] The advantages of adopting the above-mentioned further solutions are: ensuring that the device fits closely to the track during snow removal, thus improving the snow removal effect. The L-shaped design of the fixed bracket enhances the support force, and the fixed bracket can remain stable even under complex working conditions, further improving the overall reliability and operational efficiency of the snow removal system.

[0022] Furthermore, the first sub-plate and the second sub-plate are an integral structure, and the snow removal plate is formed by bending a single steel plate.

[0023] The advantages of adopting the above-mentioned further solutions are: simple assembly, easy molding, and improved overall performance of the snow removal board.

[0024] Furthermore, the first sub-plate and the second sub-plate are separate structures, and the snow removal plate is made of two steel plates welded together or connected by hinges.

[0025] The beneficial effect of adopting the above-mentioned further solution is that by setting the first sub-plate and the second sub-plate as a separate structure, it is convenient to set the angle of the snow clearing plate according to the actual situation, so as to adapt to different snow conditions.

[0031] The principles and features of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only for explaining this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0032] When snow accumulation on port loading and unloading equipment tracks prevents the equipment from operating normally, and manual snow removal is labor-intensive and inefficient, failing to meet the need for timely resumption of port operations after severe weather, a snow removal device installed at the front of the equipment can be used to automatically clear snow from the tracks as the equipment moves. This method is convenient, efficient, and meets production requirements simultaneously. The track-mounted machinery can be a rail-mounted crane, which includes the crane's trolley wheels. Therefore, this utility model provides an automatic snow removal device for track-mounted machinery, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes: a snow removal plate 1 and a snow guide trough 2. Specifically, the snow removal plate 1 includes a first sub-plate 11 and a second sub-plate 12 arranged at an angle. The first sub-plate 11 and the second sub-plate 12 can be an integral structure or a separate structure, which is not limited here. A snow guide trough 2 is provided on the top of the first sub-plate 11 and the second sub-plate 12, which guides the snow to slide naturally away from the track area. Similarly, the snow guide trough 2 can be an integral structure with the first sub-plate 11 or the second sub-plate 12, or it can be a separate structure, which is not limited here.

[0033] When the first sub-plate 11 and the second sub-plate 12 are an integral structure, the snow removal plate 1 can be formed by bending a single thick steel plate using bending technology. When the first sub-plate 11 and the second sub-plate 12 are separate structures, the snow removal plate 1 can be formed by splicing two steel plates at a specific angle. Specifically, the first sub-plate 11 and the second sub-plate 12 can be connected by welding or by hinges to ensure structural stability. The angle of the snow removal plate 1 can be 90°-120°, and the angle of the snow removal plate 1 refers to the angle formed between the first sub-plate 11 and the second sub-plate 12 towards the side of the rail-mounted crane wheel.

[0034] By using bending technology or splicing design, the strength and adaptability of the snow removal plate 1 are improved, the snow accumulation guidance is optimized, the snow residue is reduced, the snow removal efficiency is improved, the device is ensured to operate stably in complex environments, and the service life is extended.

[0035] During use, the automatic snow removal device is installed at the end of the track-mounted mechanical equipment, so that the automatic snow removal device moves with the equipment. The snow removal plate 1 is at a certain angle and is designed with a forward-protruding structure, which effectively guides the snow to move to both sides, reduces the accumulation in the middle, ensures the smooth operation of the track-mounted mechanical equipment, and reduces residue; together with the snow guide trough 2, the snow is guided to both sides to avoid accumulation.

[0036] In this embodiment, the automatic snow removal device has the advantages of simple structure, convenient installation, high snow removal efficiency and wide applicability. It solves the problem that track-type loading and unloading equipment requires manual cleaning of snow on the equipment running track before it can operate, thereby improving equipment operating efficiency and reducing the workload of personnel.

[0037] As an optional implementation of this embodiment, the snow guide groove 2 can also extend in a straight line from the top of the first sub-plate 11 or the second sub-plate 12 toward the direction away from the inside of the snow removal plate 1.

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, in another optional implementation of this embodiment, the snow guide trough 2 extends along an arc from the top of the first sub-plate 11 or the second sub-plate 12 in a direction away from the inner side of the snow removal plate 1. Specifically, the automatic snow removal device can be defined as the inner side of the snow removal plate 1, connected to one end of the wheel of the rail-mounted crane. The snow guide trough 2 can be made of bent steel plate, forming an outward arc shape, and fixed to the top of the snow removal plate 1. The arc design of the snow guide trough 2 should enable it to effectively disperse snow accumulation and reduce impact on the track. It is conceivable that, in order to improve the ease of maintenance of the device, the snow guide trough 2 can also adopt a modular design, allowing for quick disassembly and replacement via bolts or slots.

[0039] In this embodiment, the snow guide trough 2 is designed with an outward curvature. This curved design not only optimizes the guiding path of the snow but also reduces the possibility of snow backflow, ensuring maximum snow removal efficiency. During snow removal operations, it guides the snow to slide naturally away from the track area, facilitating smooth snow discharge and reducing the impact of snow on the operation of the rail-mounted crane, further improving operational efficiency and safety. The snow guide trough 2 is fixed to the top of the snow removal plate 1 and connected by welding to ensure a firm and reliable connection.

[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a snow removal pad 3 is respectively provided on the outer side of the first sub-plate 11 and the second sub-plate 12 near the bottom. The snow removal pad 3 is connected to the first sub-plate 11 or the second sub-plate 12 respectively by fasteners. Specifically, a row of bolt holes is provided on the top of the snow removal pad 3, and correspondingly, bolt holes for connecting to the snow removal pad 3 are also provided on the side of the first sub-plate 11 or the second sub-plate 12 near the bottom. The bolt holes are firmly connected to the snow removal plate 1 by fasteners. The bolt hole design makes the installation and replacement of the snow removal pad 3 simpler, greatly shortens the maintenance time, facilitates the maintenance of the automatic snow removal device, extends the service life of the device, and reduces labor costs. The bolt connection method is flexible, and the position of the snow removal pad 3 can be adjusted according to the snow thickness to optimize the snow removal effect; reduce downtime, improve the continuity of operation, and ensure the efficient operation of the rail crane in bad weather. In this embodiment, the snow removal pad 3 is made of rubber, that is, the snow removal pad 3 can be a rubber pad. During installation, ensure that the gap with the rail surface is as small as possible, which can effectively remove the snow on the rail, improve the snow removal effect, and at the same time not hinder the movement of the rail crane. The design is simple in structure and has a reasonable shape, making it easy to assemble the various components.

[0041] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, multiple reinforcing ribs 4 are vertically and parallelly spaced on the inner sides of the first sub-plate 11 and the second sub-plate 12. The reinforcing ribs 4 can be made of angle iron, which is easy to obtain. They are directly welded to the inner sides of the first sub-plate 11 and the second sub-plate 12 to improve strength. The reinforcing ribs 4 on the first sub-plate 11 and the reinforcing ribs 4 on the second sub-plate 12 are symmetrically arranged to facilitate the installation of the fixed bracket 5.

[0042] The design of the reinforcing ribs 4 on the back of the snow removal plate 1 enhances the overall bending resistance, improves the overall structural stability, ensures that it does not deform during snow removal, extends its service life, and further guarantees the continuity and safety of the rail-mounted crane's winter operations.

[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, in the preferred embodiment, a pair of symmetrically arranged reinforcing ribs 4 are connected by a fixing bracket 5. As an optional implementation of this embodiment, each pair of reinforcing ribs 4 can be connected by a fixing bracket 5.

[0044] As another optional implementation of this embodiment, one or more fixed supports 5 can be arranged laterally between the nearest pair of reinforcing ribs 4. The fixed supports 5 are welded and fixed to the reinforcing ribs 4, and the installation position and angle can be flexibly adjusted according to the actual use, without being limited here. The reinforcing ribs 4 and the fixed supports 5 are connected by welding, which improves the rigidity, stability and durability of the overall device, effectively prevents loosening caused by vibration, ensures that the snow removal device can maintain efficient operation under various working conditions, and further extends the service life of the device.

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the fixed bracket 5 is L-shaped, specifically made of L-shaped steel plate. The L-shaped high-strength steel design of the fixed bracket 5 enhances its load-bearing capacity and impact resistance, ensuring stability and reliability of the device under complex working conditions and improving overall operational safety and durability. The fixed bracket 5 specifically includes a horizontal section 51 and a vertical section. The horizontal section 51 extends along the direction close to the wheels of the rail-mounted crane, and the vertical section is welded to the reinforcing rib 4. The horizontal section 51 is bolted to the front side of the rail-mounted crane wheels, ensuring a tight fit between the device and the rail during snow removal, improving the snow removal effect. The L-shaped design of the fixed bracket 5 not only enhances the supporting force but also facilitates adjustments according to the operating requirements of the rail-mounted crane, ensuring that the snow removal device always maintains optimal matching with the rail. Through this design, the fixed bracket 5 remains stable even under complex working conditions, further improving the overall reliability and operational efficiency of the snow removal system.

[0046] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0047] When the track-mounted mechanical equipment is running, the automatic snow removal device installed at the end of its trolley mechanism moves with the equipment. The snow removal pad 3 located above the track automatically removes the snow covering the track. When the snow accumulates, it moves away from the track area along the arc of the snow guide trough 2, thus realizing the automatic removal of snow.

[0048] The use of this device can not only improve work efficiency and save labor costs, but also significantly improve operational safety, reduce track failures caused by snow accumulation, and ensure the continuity and stability of track-mounted mechanical equipment operations.

[0049] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described above, it is understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make changes, modifications, substitutions and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of the present invention.
