Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of anchor chain guiding technology, specifically to an anchor chain anti-entanglement guiding device. Background Technology
[0002] An anchor chain is a steel chain that connects the hull of a ship to the anchor. Its main function is to transmit and buffer the external forces acting on the ship.
[0003] However, existing technologies still have many defects in some similar structures when used in practice. For example, when the anchor chain gets tangled, it will directly hinder the normal transmission or retrieval of the anchor chain, forcing the operation to stop. Workers need to spend a lot of time untangling the tangled anchor chain, resulting in a significant decrease in work efficiency. At the same time, during the anchor chain retrieval and transmission operations, the anchor chain, which is not limited by position, will cause irregular shaking due to lateral displacement. If there is vibration in the working environment, the shaking amplitude will further increase, causing the anchor chain to suddenly swing, posing a collision risk to personnel working nearby.
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, the inventors have proposed an anchor chain anti-entanglement guiding device to solve these issues. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the problems of anchor chains becoming entangled during movement due to the inability to form a stable guiding path and the inability to further limit the position of the anchor chain while providing guidance, this utility model aims to provide an anchor chain anti-entanglement guiding device.
[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an anchor chain anti-winding guide device, including a base plate, with limiting components on both sides of the top surface of the base plate, and a guide component on the top surface of the base plate. The guide component includes two first fixing plates and multiple second fixing plates. A first rotating shaft is rotatably connected between the two first fixing plates. A guide wheel is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the first rotating shaft. A second rotating shaft is rotatably connected between adjacent second fixing plates. An auxiliary wheel is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the second rotating shaft.
[0007] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the limiting component includes a connecting plate, the bottom surface of the connecting plate is fixedly connected to the base plate, the outer surface of the connecting plate is threaded with symmetrically distributed lead screws, one end of the lead screw is fixedly connected to a rotating plate, the other end of the lead screw is rotatably connected to a clamping frame, and the top surface of the connecting plate is provided with a through groove.
[0008] Through the above technical solution, a rotating plate with a symmetrically distributed screw threaded onto the outer surface of the rotating connecting plate drives the screw thread to move on the connecting plate. Since the other end of the screw is rotatably connected to the clamping frame, and the clamping frame is located in the through groove opened on the top surface of the connecting plate, the through groove guides and limits the clamping frame. This ensures that when the screw rotates, the clamping frame can only move along the length of the through groove and will not rotate with the screw. Adjusting the screws on both sides can drive the two clamping frames to move closer to each other. When the clamping frame is close to the anchor chain, multiple rubber pads fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of the clamping frame contact the surface of the anchor chain. The rubber pads can increase the friction between the clamping frame and the anchor chain, improve the limiting effect, and avoid the clamping frame directly contacting the anchor chain rigidly, which would cause wear on the anchor chain. This can effectively guide and further limit the position of the anchor chain.
[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this application, holes are provided on both sides of the top surface of the base plate.
[0010] Using the above technical solution, the anchor chain passes through the hole.
[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the bottom surfaces of the first fixing plate and the second fixing plate are respectively fixedly connected to the base plate.
[0012] With the above technical solution, the first fixing plate and the second fixing plate will be more stable.
[0013] As a preferred technical solution of this application, both ends of the first rotating shaft are fixedly connected to limit plates.
[0014] The above technical solution limits the guide wheel using a limiting plate.
[0015] As a preferred technical solution of this application, a plurality of rubber pads are fixedly connected to one inner wall of the clamping frame.
[0016] Through the above technical solution, the rubber pad can increase the friction between the clamp frame and the anchor chain, improve the limiting effect, and avoid the clamp frame directly contacting the anchor chain rigidly, which would cause the anchor chain to wear.
[0017] As a preferred technical solution of this application, the clamping frame is located in the through groove.
[0018] Using the above technical solution, the anchor chain passes through the hole and is located in the through groove.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: 1. This utility model can use a guide wheel to rotate together with the first rotating shaft under the drive of the anchor chain, using rotational friction to replace sliding friction, reducing the resistance when the anchor chain moves. The guide wheel plays an initial guiding role for the anchor chain, preventing the anchor chain from deviating. The anchor chain continues to move to the auxiliary wheel fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the second rotating shaft that is rotatably connected between the adjacent second fixed plates. The auxiliary wheel rotates synchronously with the second rotating shaft, further correcting and guiding the movement direction of the anchor chain. By avoiding the guide wheel deviating from its guiding effect, it can effectively form a stable guiding path and prevent the anchor chain from getting tangled during movement. 2. This utility model allows the clamping frame to move only along the length of the through groove when the lead screw rotates, without rotating with the lead screw. Adjusting the lead screws on both sides can bring the two clamping frames closer to each other. When the clamping frame is close to the anchor chain, multiple rubber pads fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of the clamping frame contact the surface of the anchor chain. The rubber pads can increase the friction between the clamping frame and the anchor chain, improve the limiting effect, and avoid the clamping frame directly contacting the anchor chain rigidly, thus preventing the anchor chain from wearing. This achieves the purpose of effectively guiding while further limiting the position of the anchor chain. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0027] Example: Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides an anchor chain anti-winding guide device, including a base plate 1, holes 4 are provided on both sides of the top surface of the base plate 1, limiting components 3 are provided on both sides of the top surface of the base plate 1, and guiding components 2 are provided on the top surface of the base plate 1. The guide assembly 2 includes two first fixed plates 21 and multiple second fixed plates 22. The bottom surfaces of the first fixed plates 21 and the second fixed plates 22 are fixedly connected to the base plate 1, respectively. A first rotating shaft 23 is rotatably connected between the two first fixed plates 21. Limiting plates 24 are fixedly connected to both ends of the first rotating shaft 23. A guide wheel 25 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the first rotating shaft 23. A second rotating shaft 26 is rotatably connected between adjacent second fixed plates 22. An auxiliary wheel 27 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the second rotating shaft 26.
[0028] The anchor chain continues to move to the auxiliary wheel 27 fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the second rotating shaft 26 that is rotatably connected between the adjacent second fixed plates 22. The auxiliary wheel 27 rotates synchronously with the second rotating shaft 26 to further correct and guide the movement direction of the anchor chain. Through the cooperation of the guide wheel 25 and multiple auxiliary wheels 27, it is ensured that the guide wheel 25 is always in the correct working position, and the guiding effect is avoided due to the deviation of the guide wheel 25.
[0029] The limiting component 3 includes a connecting plate 31, the bottom surface of the connecting plate 31 is fixedly connected to the base plate 1, and the outer surface of the connecting plate 31 is threaded with symmetrically distributed lead screws 32. One end of the lead screw 32 is fixedly connected to a rotating plate 33, and the other end of the lead screw 33 is rotatably connected to a clamping frame 34. Multiple rubber pads 35 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of the clamping frame 34. The top surface of the connecting plate 31 is provided with a through groove 36, and the clamping frame 34 is located in the through groove 36.
[0030] When the lead screw 32 rotates, the clamping frame 34 can only move along the length of the through groove 36 and will not rotate with the lead screw 32. Adjusting the lead screws 32 on both sides can drive the two clamping frames 34 to move closer to each other. When the clamping frame 34 is close to the anchor chain, multiple rubber pads 35 fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of the clamping frame 34 come into contact with the surface of the anchor chain.
[0031] The working principle of the anchor chain anti-entanglement guiding device in this embodiment is as follows: When the anchor chain needs to be transmitted, the anchor chain first contacts the guide wheel 25 fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the first rotating shaft 23 rotatably connected between the two first fixed plates 21. The guide wheel 25 rotates together with the first rotating shaft 23 under the drive of the anchor chain, using rotational friction to replace sliding friction, reducing the resistance when the anchor chain moves. The guide wheel 25 plays a preliminary guiding role for the anchor chain, preventing the anchor chain from deviating. The anchor chain continues to move to the auxiliary wheel 27 fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the second rotating shaft 26 rotatably connected between the adjacent second fixed plates 22. The auxiliary wheel 27 rotates synchronously with the second rotating shaft 26. The movement direction of the anchor chain is further corrected and guided. Through the cooperation of the guide wheel 25 and multiple auxiliary wheels 27, the limiting plate 24 fixedly connected to both ends of the first rotating shaft 23 can limit the axial movement of the guide wheel 25 on the first rotating shaft 23, ensuring that the guide wheel 25 is always in the correct working position and avoiding the guide effect from being affected by the deviation of the guide wheel 25. The bottom surfaces of the first fixed plate 21 and the second fixed plate 22 are both fixedly connected to the base plate 1, providing stable support for the entire guide assembly 2 and ensuring the stability of the guide process. This achieves the purpose of effectively forming a stable guide path to prevent the anchor chain from getting tangled during movement. A rotating plate 33 is attached to one end of a symmetrically distributed lead screw 32 threaded onto the outer surface of the rotating connecting plate 31. The rotating plate 33 drives the lead screw 32 to move threadedly on the connecting plate 31. Since the other end of the lead screw 32 is rotatably connected to the clamping frame 34, and the clamping frame 34 is located in the through groove 36 opened on the top surface of the connecting plate 31, the through groove 36 guides and limits the clamping frame 34. This ensures that when the lead screw 32 rotates, the clamping frame 34 can only move along the length of the through groove 36 and will not rotate with the lead screw 32. Adjusting the lead screws 32 on both sides can drive the two clamping frames 34 to move closer to each other. When the clamping frame 34 is close to the anchor chain, multiple rubber pads 35 fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of the clamping frame 34 come into contact with the surface of the anchor chain. The rubber pads 35 can increase the friction between the clamping frame 34 and the anchor chain, improve the limiting effect, and prevent the clamping frame 34 from directly contacting the anchor chain rigidly, thus avoiding wear on the anchor chain. This achieves the purpose of effectively guiding and further limiting the position of the anchor chain.
