Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of engineering machinery, and in particular relates to a heavy-duty formwork trailer device. Background Technology
[0002] In the construction of hardened roads in coal mine roadways, traditional methods commonly use channel steel or profiles for formwork. However, these rigid formwork materials have significant drawbacks: their individual dimensions are large and their structure is bulky, resulting in low transportation efficiency. They often require frequent trips by transport vehicles, significantly increasing energy consumption and construction costs.
[0003] To overcome the drawbacks of traditional formwork materials, engineers have developed a folding support formwork with automatic unfolding and retraction functions (hereinafter referred to as "automatic folding formwork"). This formwork can automatically unfold in underground roadways to provide support, effectively improving formwork efficiency. However, to achieve its automation function, such formwork generally integrates complex hydraulic systems and numerous actuator components (such as cylinders, hydraulic stations, control valve groups, etc.), resulting in a significant increase in its overall weight; a single formwork typically weighs 1 to 2 metric tons. Such enormous weight poses a severe challenge to underground transportation.
[0004] To address the transportation challenges of automated folding templates, existing technologies primarily employ two methods:
[0005] 1) Heavy-duty shovel truck transportation: This is currently the most common method. However, heavy-duty shovel trucks are large in size. When operating in narrow, winding, and height-restricted coal mine tunnels, they have a large turning radius, extremely poor maneuverability, and are very difficult to operate. There is a risk of colliding with tunnel walls or equipment, and the passage capacity is greatly limited.
[0006] 2) Simple tow wheel assisted movement: Some technicians attempted to install tow wheels or rollers at the bottom of the formwork to assist movement by towing. However, this method has fundamental flaws: (a) its function is limited to providing slight horizontal movement assistance after the equipment is installed in place; (b) most importantly, this type of simple tow wheel structure lacks effective lifting and adjustment functions, and cannot adjust the height of the equipment. When encountering uneven roadway floors or needing to precisely place the formwork at a predetermined elevation, it is necessary to find and transport suitable pads for manual height adjustment, which is cumbersome, inefficient, and poses safety hazards.
[0007] It is evident that existing technologies have significant shortcomings in the transportation and positioning of automated folding formwork: heavy-duty shovels are unsuitable for the confined spaces of mine roadways, while simple tugboats cannot solve the problem of precise height adjustment. Therefore, how to achieve safe, convenient, and efficient lifting (height adjustment) and transfer (horizontal movement) of heavy-duty (1-2 ton) automated folding formwork in coal mine roadways with extremely limited space and complex floor conditions has become a key technical challenge restricting the widespread application of this technology. There is an urgent need to develop a novel device or method that can effectively solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0011] Preferably, the rear lifting device includes caster seats, a rear hydraulic jack, lifting outriggers, and tow wheels, wherein:

This allows the device to be adapted to different specifications and models of automatic folding formwork (1-2 ton class), improving the equipment's versatility and adaptability to different construction needs.
[0021] 4) Modular design facilitates underground transportation and deployment: The modular design of this device (such as front lifting, rear lifting, trailer frame, connecting device, etc. can be disassembled and combined) effectively reduces the transportation volume and weight of individual components, facilitates transportation in narrow tunnels, reduces transportation frequency and energy consumption, and solves the transportation problems caused by the large and heavy equipment in the background technology.
[0022] 5) Convenient operation, reduced reliance on manual labor and safety risks: The integrated hydraulic lifting control (front and rear hydraulic jacks) makes lifting operation simple and efficient, greatly reducing the manual handling, raising work intensity and time required by traditional methods, and significantly reducing the labor intensity and safety risks of workers.

[0033] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0034] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the heavy-duty template trailer device includes a front lifting device 1, a trailer frame 2, a rear lifting device 3, and a connecting device 4.

The first support frame 104 is fixed on the upper side of the slewing bearing 103.
[0035] In the figure, the first support frame 104 has a first top hole, a first middle hole, and a first bottom hole sequentially from top to bottom; one end of the first connecting arm 105 is connected to the first top hole of the first support frame 104 via a pivot, one end of the second connecting arm 106 is connected to the first middle hole of the first support frame 104 via a pivot, and the bottom hole of the front hydraulic jack 108 is connected to the first bottom hole of the first support frame 104 via a pivot; the inner side of the second support frame 107 has a second top hole, a second upper hole, and a second middle hole sequentially from top to bottom.

[0036] Specifically, a front lifting device with independent lifting function is installed, and a four-bar linkage structure is used in conjunction with a hydraulic jack to complete the height adjustment of the front end. Furthermore, the middle of the tire axle system 102 extends outward to form a hinge joint 109. The outer end of the hinge joint 109 is connected to one end of the trailer tie rod 110 via a pivot. The other end of the trailer tie rod 110 is connected to a cross shaft 111 via a pivot. The cross shaft 111 is used to connect to the trailer.

[0038] In actual operation, by setting up independent lifting devices at the front and rear, both employing a four-bar linkage structure in conjunction with hydraulic jacks, the height of different parts of the formwork can be adjusted independently and precisely. This effectively solves the pain point of the simple tow wheel solution in the background technology, which cannot adjust the equipment height and relies on manual shimming for adjustment. It is especially suitable for the uneven working conditions of coal mine roadways, enabling the safe and convenient lifting and leveling of heavy formwork in confined spaces.
[0039] It should be noted that the corner groove of the caster seat 301 is provided with a slot 305, which is used to connect the clip 203 of the trailer frame 2. The connecting device 4 is a strap, and the end of the strap is connected to a strap tightener. By operating the strap tightener, the equipment can be connected into a whole. The front lifting device and the rear lifting device can flexibly match trailer frames of different sizes, and the whole device is easy to assemble and disassemble. This makes the device adaptable to different specifications and models of automatic folding formwork of 1-2 tons, improving the versatility of the equipment and its adaptability to different construction needs.
[0040] In practical applications, this solution specifically addresses the key technical challenge of safely, conveniently, and efficiently lifting, adjusting, and horizontally moving heavy-duty 1-2 ton automatic folding formwork in coal mine roadways with extremely limited space and complex floor conditions. Through innovative independent lifting modules, flexible steering mechanisms, and modular design, it significantly improves construction efficiency, safety, and equipment adaptability while reducing energy consumption and labor costs.
