Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This solution belongs to the field of lubrication mechanisms, specifically involving an automatic lubrication and coating mechanism for winch wire ropes. Background Technology
[0002] A winch is a small, lightweight lifting device that uses a drum to wind a wire rope or chain to lift or pull heavy objects. It is also called a winch. Winches can lift heavy objects vertically, horizontally, or at an angle.
[0003] A search revealed that the invention patent application with publication number CN110329933A discloses a winch and its control method, which includes a base plate, suspension, drive motor, drum, wire rope, emergency stop braking mechanism, first cable laying mechanism and second cable laying mechanism. The first cable laying mechanism is provided on the electromagnetic slide rail, and the drive motor is provided on the inner side of one side of the upright plate. The drive motor is provided with a drive gear disk through the drive shaft, and the drive gear disk is provided with an emergency stop braking mechanism.
[0004] In working environments involving high-temperature objects, the maintenance of winch wire ropes presents numerous challenges: frequent contact between the wire ropes and high-temperature objects accelerates their wear and aging, threatening the stable operation and service life of the equipment. Moreover, the current method of ensuring wire rope performance is manual lubrication every shift. This traditional method not only significantly increases the labor intensity of workers but also makes it difficult to guarantee the lubrication effect. Furthermore, the uncertainty of manual operation makes it impossible to effectively guarantee the uniformity and timeliness of lubrication, resulting in severe localized wear of the wire ropes during operation. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this solution is to provide an automatic lubrication and coating mechanism for winch wire ropes to solve the many drawbacks of traditional manual lubrication methods.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this solution provides an automatic lubrication and coating mechanism for winch wire ropes, including an oil box. A bracket is fixedly connected to the bottom inner side of the oil box. An adjusting rod is threadedly connected to the horizontal part of the bracket, and the adjusting rod passes through the bracket. A U-shaped frame is mounted on the end of the adjusting rod via a bearing. A fixed shaft is fixedly connected to the vertical part of the U-shaped frame, and a guide wheel is mounted on the middle section of the fixed shaft via a bearing.
[0007] The principle of this solution is as follows: During use, the oil box is placed below the wire rope at the front end of the winch to store lubricating oil. The guide wheel is installed on the oil box. In addition, matching reversing wheels are set on both sides of the oil box. In this way, the wire rope achieves automatic lubrication by contacting the lubricating oil in the oil box during operation. Furthermore, the wire rope can pass through the sponge sleeve inside the hollow sleeve. After the wire rope is soaked in lubricating oil, it can be evenly coated by the sponge sleeve, improving the lubrication effect.
[0008] The technical advantage of this solution is that by setting up an automatic lubrication mechanism consisting of an oil box and adjustable guide wheels, the oil box is placed below the wire rope at the front end of the winch to store lubricating oil; the guide wheels are installed on the oil box; and matching reversing wheels are set on both sides of the oil box. In this way, the wire rope achieves automatic lubrication by contacting the lubricating oil in the oil box during operation, which solves many drawbacks of the traditional manual lubrication method.
[0009] By setting an adjustable combination of hollow sleeve and sponge sleeve inside the oil box and located between the guide wheel and the reversing wheel, the wire rope can pass through the sponge sleeve, so that the wire rope can be continuously and evenly coated with lubricating oil, thus improving the lubrication effect.
[0010] Furthermore, the oil box is a square box made of steel. The oil box facilitates the storage of lubricating oil.
[0011] Furthermore, the bracket is U-shaped and made of steel. The bracket provides support for the U-shaped frame and guide wheels, among other components.
[0012] Furthermore, a guide rod is fixedly connected to the bottom of the U-shaped frame, and the guide rod passes through the U-shaped frame and is slidably connected to it. The guide rod provides guidance for the lifting and lowering adjustment of the U-shaped frame.
[0013] Furthermore, a knob is fixedly connected to the body of the adjusting rod, and the knob and the adjusting rod are an integral structure. The knob facilitates the rotation of the adjusting rod.
[0014] Furthermore, notches are provided on both the left and right side walls of the oil box, and a fixing plate is fixedly connected to each notch. A mounting base is fixedly connected to the upper end of the fixing plate, and a reversing wheel is mounted on the mounting base via a bearing. The position of the reversing wheel corresponds to the position of the guide wheel. By setting the reversing wheel and cooperating with the guide wheel, the wire rope is less likely to be worn by the oil box when entering and exiting.
[0015] Furthermore, an internally threaded sleeve is fixedly connected to the inner bottom of the oil box. A threaded rod is threadedly connected to the inner side of the internally threaded sleeve. A ball head is integrally formed at the bottom of the threaded rod. A hollow sleeve is movably connected to the outside of the ball head. A sponge sleeve is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hollow sleeve. By setting the adjustable hollow sleeve and sponge sleeve, the lubricated wire rope can be further coated evenly.

[0017] The following detailed explanation illustrates the specific implementation methods: The reference numerals in the accompanying drawings of the instruction manual include: oil box 1, bracket 2, adjusting rod 3, U-shaped frame 4, fixed shaft 5, guide wheel 6, knob 7, guide rod 8, fixing plate 9, mounting base 10, reversing wheel 11, internal threaded sleeve 12, threaded rod 13, ball head 14, hollow sleeve 15, and sponge sleeve 16. Detailed Implementation
[0018] The basic implementation examples are as follows: Figures 1-4 The diagram shows an automatic lubrication and coating mechanism for a winch wire rope, comprising an oil box 1, which is a square box made of steel. The oil box 1 facilitates the storage of lubricating oil. A bracket 2, U-shaped and made of steel, is fixedly connected to the bottom inner side of the oil box 1. The bracket 2 provides support for components such as a U-shaped frame 4 and guide wheels 6. An adjusting rod 3 is threadedly connected to the horizontal part of the bracket 2, and the adjusting rod 3 passes through the bracket 2. The end of the adjusting rod 3 is mounted to the U-shaped frame 4 via a bearing. A fixed shaft 5 is fixedly connected to the vertical part of the U-shaped frame 4, and a guide wheel 6 is mounted to the middle section of the fixed shaft 5 via a bearing. A guide rod 8 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the U-shaped frame 4, passing through and slidably connected to the U-shaped frame 4. The guide rod 8 guides the lifting and lowering adjustment of the U-shaped frame 4. A knob 7 is fixedly connected to the adjusting rod 3, and the knob 7 is an integral part of the adjusting rod 3. The knob 7 makes it easy to rotate the adjusting rod 3.
[0019] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, notches are provided on both the left and right side walls of the oil box 1, and a fixing plate 9 is fixedly connected to each notch. A mounting base 10 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the fixing plate 9, and a reversing wheel 11 is mounted on the mounting base 10 via bearings. The position of the reversing wheel 11 corresponds to the position of the guide wheel 6. By setting the reversing wheel 11, its cooperation with the guide wheel 6 can prevent the wire rope from being easily worn by the oil box 1 when it enters and exits.
[0020] like Figure 2As shown, an internally threaded sleeve 12 is fixedly connected to the bottom inner side of the oil box 1. A threaded rod 13 is threadedly connected to the inner side of the internally threaded sleeve 12. A ball head 14 is integrally formed at the bottom of the threaded rod 13. A hollow sleeve 15 is movably connected to the outside of the ball head 14. A sponge sleeve 16 is fixedly connected to the inner ring wall of the hollow sleeve 15. By adjusting the hollow sleeve 15 and the sponge sleeve 16, the lubricated wire rope can be further coated evenly.
[0021] The specific implementation process of this utility model is as follows: In use, the oil box 1 is placed below the wire rope at the front end of the winch to store lubricating oil. The guide wheel 6 is installed on the oil box 1. In addition, matching reversing wheels 11 are set on both sides of the oil box 1. In this way, the wire rope achieves automatic lubrication by contacting the lubricating oil in the oil box 1 during operation. In addition, the wire rope can pass through the sponge sleeve 16 inside the hollow sleeve 15. In this way, after the wire rope is soaked in lubricating oil, it can be evenly coated by the sponge sleeve 16 to improve the lubrication effect.
[0022] This solution uses an automatic lubrication mechanism consisting of an oil box 1 and adjustable guide wheels 6. The oil box 1 is placed below the wire rope at the front end of the winch to store lubricating oil. The guide wheels 6 are installed on the oil box 1. In addition, matching reversing wheels 11 are set on both sides of the oil box 1. In this way, the wire rope achieves automatic lubrication by contacting the lubricating oil in the oil box 1 during operation, which solves many drawbacks of the traditional manual lubrication method.
[0023] By setting an adjustable combination of hollow sleeve and sponge sleeve inside the oil box 1 and between the guide wheel 6 and the reversing wheel 11, the wire rope can pass through the sponge sleeve, so that the wire rope can be continuously and evenly coated with lubricating oil, thus improving the lubrication effect.
