Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a transport mechanism for a curtain wall window cleaning machine, belonging to the field of building equipment technology. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional window cleaning machines have significant limitations in building curtain wall cleaning operations. These machines are typically fixed above the opening in the building curtain wall, and their operating platform's range of motion is limited to a confined space centered on the cantilever point.

[0003] Due to a lack of effective outdoor mobility, traditional window cleaning machines cannot penetrate the building's boundaries. The operating platform is always confined to the inner side near the curtain wall opening, making it difficult to extend to the fully exposed exterior curtain wall surface. This results in blind spots in the cleaning coverage, making it impossible to achieve comprehensive cleaning of areas far from cantilever points, building corners, and complex areas such as curved curtain walls.

[0004] As buildings become taller and more complex, with larger curtain wall areas and more diverse structures, the limitations of traditional window cleaning machines in terms of working range are becoming increasingly prominent. This affects cleaning efficiency and quality, increases labor costs and safety risks, and makes it difficult to meet the curtain wall maintenance needs of modern buildings. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a transport mechanism for a curtain wall window cleaning machine.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a transport mechanism for a curtain wall window cleaning machine, comprising...

[0007] The guide rail has two parallel rails, each with multiple connectors at its bottom. Both rails are fixedly installed on the building structure via these connectors, and the outer ends of the two rails are flush with the bottom of the opening in the curtain wall.

[0008] A support platform is provided for supporting the window cleaning machine. The support platform is movably mounted on two guide rails and moves along the length of the guide rails.

[0009] The balancing assembly consists of two sets, symmetrically arranged on both sides of the support platform. Each set of balancing assemblies includes a support rod, a pulley, and a steel wire rope. The support rod is located on the side of the support platform and fixed to the connector at the bottom of the guide rail. The height of the support rod is higher than the height of the support platform. The pulley is located on the top of the support rod. One end of the steel wire rope is fixed to the connector on the side away from the curtain wall, and the other end of the steel wire rope passes through the pulley and is fixed to the side of the support platform closer to the curtain wall.

[0010] Preferably, guide grooves are provided on the opposing sides of the two guide rails, and multiple rollers are rotatably provided on both sides of the bottom of the bearing platform. The rollers on both sides of the bearing platform are respectively fitted into the guide grooves on the two guide rails and move along the guide grooves.

[0011] Preferably, the bottom of the support platform is provided with multiple mounting seats, and the multiple rollers are respectively rotatably mounted on the multiple mounting seats.

[0012] Preferably, the rollers at the bottom of the support platform are evenly distributed.

[0013] Preferably, guardrails can be detachably installed on both sides and the front end of the carrying platform.

[0014] Preferably, the support platform is rectangular, and the bottom of the support platform is provided with multiple intersecting horizontal and vertical support steel square tubes.

[0015] Due to the application of the above technical solution, this utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0016] 1. This utility model, by setting up a support platform that can move along the guide rail, can transport the window cleaning machine to the outdoors, allowing the window cleaning machine to extend to the fully exposed outdoor curtain wall surface, expanding the working range of the window cleaning machine, improving cleaning efficiency and quality, reducing reliance on manual cleaning, thereby reducing labor costs and the safety risks of high-altitude operations, and meeting the diverse needs of modern building curtain wall maintenance; at the same time, it effectively eliminates cleaning blind spots, and achieves comprehensive cleaning of complex parts such as areas far from cantilever points, building corners, and curved curtain walls.

[0017] 2. As the support platform moves toward the curtain wall, the steel wire rope gradually tightens, and with the support of the support rods and pulleys, it provides an upward pulling force to the support platform, effectively balancing the overturning moment caused by the weight of the window cleaning machine and ensuring the stable operation of the support platform.

[0025] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0026] As attached Figure 1-3 As shown, the transport mechanism of the curtain wall window cleaning machine of this utility model includes a guide rail 1, a bearing platform 3, and a balancing component.

[0027] There are two guide rails 1 arranged in parallel to each other. Each guide rail 1 has multiple connectors 11 at its bottom. Both guide rails 1 are fixedly installed on the building body 2 through multiple connectors 11. The outer ends of the two guide rails 1 are flush with the bottom of the opening in the curtain wall, providing a basic track for the movement of the support platform 3.

[0028] As attached Figure 4-5 As shown, the supporting platform 3 is used to support the window cleaning machine 4. The supporting platform 3 is movably mounted on two guide rails 1 and moves along the length of the guide rails 1. Specifically, guide grooves 12 are provided on the opposing sides of the two guide rails 1. Multiple rollers 34 are rotatably mounted on both sides of the bottom of the supporting platform 3. Multiple mounting seats 31 are provided on the bottom of the supporting platform 3. The multiple rollers 34 are rotatably mounted on the multiple mounting seats 31. The rollers 34 on both sides of the supporting platform 3 are respectively fitted into the guide grooves 12 on the two guide rails 1 and move along the guide grooves 12 to achieve stable movement of the supporting platform 3.

[0029] By setting up a support platform 3 that can move along the guide rail 1, the window cleaning machine 4 can be transported to the outside, allowing the window cleaning machine 4 to extend to the fully exposed exterior curtain wall surface, expanding the working range of the window cleaning machine 4, improving cleaning efficiency and quality, reducing reliance on manual cleaning, thereby reducing labor costs and the safety risks of high-altitude operations, and meeting the diverse needs of modern building curtain wall maintenance; at the same time, it effectively eliminates cleaning blind spots, and achieves comprehensive cleaning of complex parts such as areas far from cantilever points, building corners and curved curtain walls.

[0030] Furthermore, the rollers 34 at the bottom of the support platform 3 are evenly distributed to ensure that the support platform 3 is subjected to uniform force and that the movement process is more stable.

[0031] Furthermore, the support platform 3 is rectangular, and the bottom of the support platform 3 is provided with multiple horizontally and vertically intersecting support steel square tubes 33, which greatly improves the structural strength and load-bearing capacity of the support platform 3 and can stably support the weight of the window cleaning machine 4.

[0032] There are two sets of balancing components, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the support platform 3. Each set of balancing components includes a support rod 5, a pulley 6 and a steel wire rope 7. The support rod 5 is located on the side of the support platform 3 and is fixed to the connector 11 at the bottom of the guide rail 1. The height of the support rod 5 is higher than the height of the support platform 3. The pulley 6 is located on the top of the support rod 5. One end of the steel wire rope 7 is fixed to the connector 11 on the side away from the curtain wall, and the other end of the steel wire rope 7 passes through the pulley 6 and is fixed to the side of the support platform 3 near the curtain wall.

[0033] During operation, as the support platform 3 moves toward the curtain wall, the steel wire rope 7 gradually tightens. With the support of the support rod 5 and pulley 6, it provides an upward pulling force to the support platform 3, effectively balancing the overturning moment caused by the weight of the window cleaning machine 4, and ensuring the stable operation of the support platform 3.

[0034] Furthermore, guardrails 32 can be detachably installed on both sides and the front end of the carrying platform 3, which play a safety protection role during the transportation of the window cleaning machine 4. The guardrails 32 can be detachably installed on the carrying platform 3 with bolts, so as to be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs.

[0035] The above are merely specific application examples of this utility model and do not constitute any limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model; all technical solutions formed by equivalent transformation or equivalent substitution fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
