Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of marine oil engineering technology, and in particular relates to a wire rope cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] Offshore oil engineering modules are typically constructed using a modular prefabrication process followed by final assembly at the site. The modular assembly process involves extensive hoisting operations, and the steel wire ropes used for hoisting, serving as the connection between the crane and the hoisted object, play a crucial role in ensuring the safety of these operations.

[0003] During use, steel wire ropes inevitably accumulate fine sand and gravel. Because of the lubricating oil on the steel wire ropes, the sand and gravel are difficult to clean. Once the sand and gravel accumulate to a certain amount, it will affect the performance of the steel wire rope and cause a huge safety hazard to hoisting operations.

[0004] The inspection and testing of slings clearly stipulates that wire ropes need to be cleaned. However, the traditional cleaning method involves manually cleaning the wire ropes with a handheld steel cleaning brush, which is not only wasteful of manpower and inefficient, but also cannot guarantee the overall cleanliness of the wire ropes.

[0005] Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a wire rope cleaning device to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the technical problem mentioned in the background art of manually cleaning steel wire ropes with handheld steel cleaning brushes, which is not only wasteful of manpower but also inefficient, a steel wire rope cleaning device is provided to solve the problem of cleaning sand and gravel from the surface of steel wire ropes.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the specific technical solution of the wire rope cleaning device of this utility model is as follows:

[0008] A wire rope cleaning device includes a steel housing with multiple limiting structures offset from each other. Each limiting structure is connected to a connecting rod. A cleaning brush is connected to one end of the connecting rod facing inwards from the steel housing, and a limiting buckle is connected to the other end of the connecting rod away from the cleaning brush, so that the cleaning brush is positioned inside the steel housing. A spring is provided between the cleaning brush and the steel housing. The spring causes the cleaning brush to abut against the surface of the wire rope and pulls the steel housing, so that the cleaning brush cleans along the straightened surface of the wire rope.

[0009] Furthermore, a spring is fitted onto the connecting rod, with one end of the spring connected to the steel housing and the other end of the spring away from the steel housing abutting against the cleaning brush, so that the cleaning brush presses against the surface of the wire rope.

[0010] Furthermore, the steel outer shell includes a first semicircular tube and a second semicircular tube, with the second semicircular tube connected to the first semicircular tube so that the first and second semicircular tubes are connected in a cylindrical shape.

[0011] Furthermore, a hinge is provided on one side of the first semicircular tube, and a second semicircular tube is connected to the hinge so that the second semicircular tube can rotate along the hinge.

[0012] Furthermore, a first locking plate is provided on the side of the first semicircular tube away from the hinge, and a second locking plate is provided on the side of the second semicircular tube away from the hinge. The first locking plate and the second locking plate are connected so that the second semicircular tube is fixedly mounted on the first semicircular tube.

[0013] Furthermore, the limiting structure includes a first limiting structure, a second limiting structure, and a third limiting structure. The first limiting structure is disposed on the second semicircular tube, and the second and third limiting structures are disposed alternately on the first semicircular tube so that the included angle between the first limiting structure, the second limiting structure, and the third limiting structure is 120 degrees.

[0014] Furthermore, the first limiting structure, the second limiting structure, and the third limiting structure are located on the same plane radially.

[0015] Furthermore, a fourth limiting structure is provided on the side of the first semicircular tube away from the second and third limiting structures, and a fifth and sixth limiting structure are provided at intervals on the side of the second semicircular tube away from the first limiting structure, so that the included angle between the fourth, fifth, and sixth limiting structures is 120 degrees.

[0016] Furthermore, the fourth, fifth, and sixth limiting structures are located on the same plane radially.

[0017] Furthermore, the radial angle between the first limiting structure, the second limiting structure, the third limiting structure, the fourth limiting structure, the fifth limiting structure, and the sixth limiting structure is 60 degrees.

[0018] The wire rope cleaning device of this utility model has the following advantages:

[0019] The spring-driven cleaning brush enables deep cleaning without manual intervention, significantly reducing manpower, improving work efficiency, and mitigating safety risks and economic costs associated with inadequate cleaning of the wire rope. This application utilizes a cleverly designed spring and limiting structure to ensure stable and reliable operation under complex working conditions. Attached Figure Description

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0025] Those skilled in the art will understand that although some embodiments herein include certain features included in other embodiments but not others, combinations of features from different embodiments are intended to be within the scope of this invention and form different embodiments. For example, in the claims, any of the claimed embodiments can be used in any combination.

[0026] The following is a reference to the appendix. Figure 1 To be continued Figure 2 This invention describes a wire rope cleaning device.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the wire rope cleaning device of this utility model includes a steel shell 1. Multiple limiting structures are staggered on the steel shell 1, and each limiting structure is connected to a connecting rod 2. A cleaning brush 3 is connected to one end of the connecting rod 2 facing the inside of the steel shell 1, and a limiting buckle 4 is connected to the other end of the connecting rod 2 away from the cleaning brush 3, so that the cleaning brush 3 is placed inside the steel shell 1. A spring 5 is provided between the cleaning brush 3 and the steel shell 1. The spring 5 causes the cleaning brush 3 to abut against the surface of the wire rope and pulls the steel shell 1 so that the cleaning brush 3 cleans along the straightened surface of the wire rope.

[0028] The cleaning brush 3, driven by spring 5, can complete deep cleaning without manual intervention, greatly reducing manpower burden, improving work efficiency, and lowering safety risks and economic costs caused by inadequate cleaning of the wire rope. This application, through the ingenious design of spring 5 and limiting structure, enables the device to operate stably and reliably under complex working conditions.

[0029] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, spring 5 is sleeved on connecting rod 2, one end of spring 5 is connected to steel housing 1, and the end of spring 5 away from steel housing 1 abuts against cleaning brush 3 so that cleaning brush 3 presses against the surface of steel wire rope; steel housing 1 includes a first semi-circular tube 111 and a second semi-circular tube 112, the second semi-circular tube 112 is connected to the first semi-circular tube 111 so that the first semi-circular tube 111 and the second semi-circular tube 112 are connected in a cylindrical shape.

[0030] A hinge 6 is provided on one side of the first semicircular tube 111, and a second semicircular tube 112 is connected to the hinge 6 so that the second semicircular tube 112 can rotate along the hinge 6; a first locking plate 7 is provided on the side of the first semicircular tube 111 away from the hinge 6, and a second locking plate 8 is provided on the side of the second semicircular tube 112 away from the hinge 6. The first locking plate 7 and the second locking plate 8 are connected so that the second semicircular tube 112 is fixedly installed on the first semicircular tube 11.

[0031] In this embodiment, preferably, the spring 5 is sleeved on the connecting rod 2 along the length direction of the connecting rod 2. One end of the spring 5 is fixedly connected to the steel outer shell 1 and corresponds to the position of the limiting structure. The end of the spring 5 away from the steel outer shell 1 abuts against the cleaning brush 3, so that the cleaning brush 3 is always in contact with the surface of the wire rope to ensure that the surface of the wire rope is cleaned. At the same time, the constant pressure generated by the spring 5 ensures that the cleaning brush 3 always applies an appropriate cleaning force to the wire rope.

[0032] A cleaning brush 3 is connected to the end of the connecting rod 2 on the side of the spring 5 to clean the surface of the wire rope. A limit buckle 4 is connected to the end of the connecting rod 2 away from the wire rope. The limit buckle 4 prevents the cleaning brush 3 from detaching from the steel shell 1. By adjusting the position of the limit buckle 4 screwed onto the connecting rod 2, the elastic potential energy of the spring 5 and the position of the cleaning brush 3 can be changed, so that the surface of wire ropes of various diameters can be cleaned.

[0033] The steel outer shell 1 is composed of a first semi-circular tube 111 and a second semi-circular tube 112. The second semi-circular tube 112 abuts against the first semi-circular tube 111 so that the steel outer shell 1 is cylindrical.

[0034] A hinge 6 is connected to one side of the first semicircular tube 111. The first semicircular tube 111 is connected to the second semicircular tube 112 through the hinge 6, so that the second semicircular tube 112 is rotatably connected to the first semicircular tube 111. A first locking plate 7 is fixedly connected to the end of the first semicircular tube 111 away from the hinge 6. A second locking plate 8 is correspondingly connected to the second semicircular tube 112. When the second semicircular tube 112 abuts against the first semicircular tube, the first semicircular tube 111 and the second semicircular tube 112 are fixedly connected by connecting the first locking plate 7 and the second locking plate 8.

[0035] Preferably, the first semicircular tube 111 is fixedly connected to the base plate, and the first semicircular tube 111 can slide along a fixed direction by sliding the base plate; and a drain hole 15 is provided on the first semicircular tube 111 so that the sand and gravel that fall off after the steel wire rope surface is cleaned can be discharged through the drain hole 15.

[0036] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the limiting structure includes a first limiting structure 9, a second limiting structure 10, and a third limiting structure 11. The first limiting structure 9 is disposed on the second semicircular tube 112, and the second limiting structure 10 and the third limiting structure 11 are disposed at intervals on the first semicircular tube 111, such that the included angle between the first limiting structure 9, the second limiting structure 10, and the third limiting structure 11 is 120 degrees. The first limiting structure 9, the second limiting structure 10, and the third limiting structure 11 are located on the same plane radially.

[0037] In this embodiment, preferably, a first limiting structure 9 is provided on the side wall of one end of the first semicircular tube 111, and a second limiting structure 10 and a third limiting structure 11 are provided at intervals at the same end of the second semicircular tube 112. The included angle between the first limiting structure 9, the second limiting structure 10 and the third limiting structure 11 is 120 degrees, and the first limiting structure 9, the second limiting structure 10 and the third limiting structure 11 are located on the same plane in the vertical direction. When connecting rods 2 are slidably provided on the first limiting structure 9, the second limiting structure 10 and the third limiting structure 11, the cleaning brushes 3 connected to the three connecting rods 2 are distributed at 120-degree intervals to ensure that the cleaning brushes 3 are completely in contact with the surface of the wire rope and to ensure the cleaning effect.

[0038] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, a fourth limiting structure 12 is provided on the side of the first semicircular tube 111 away from the second limiting structure 10 and the third limiting structure 11. A fifth limiting structure 13 and a sixth limiting structure 14 are provided at intervals on the side of the second semicircular tube 112 away from the first limiting structure 9, so that the included angle between the fourth limiting structure 12, the fifth limiting structure 13 and the sixth limiting structure 14 is 120 degrees. The fourth limiting structure 12, the fifth limiting structure 13 and the sixth limiting structure 14 are located on the same plane in the radial direction. The included angle in the radial direction between the first limiting structure 9, the second limiting structure 10, the third limiting structure 11, the fourth limiting structure 12, the fifth limiting structure 13 and the sixth limiting structure 14 is 60 degrees.

[0039] In this embodiment, preferably, the end of the first semicircular tube 111 away from the second limiting structure 10 and the third limiting structure 11 is connected to the fourth limiting structure 12, and the end of the second semicircular tube 112 away from the first limiting structure 9 is provided with a fifth limiting structure 13 and a sixth limiting structure 14 at intervals. The included angle between the fourth limiting structure 12, the fifth limiting structure 13 and the sixth limiting structure 14 is 120 degrees. At the same time, a cleaning brush 3 is connected to the fourth limiting structure 12, the fifth limiting structure 13 and the sixth limiting structure 14 through a connecting rod 2, so that the cleaning brush 3 is completely in contact with the surface of the wire rope, ensuring the cleaning effect of the wire rope.

[0040] Preferably, the included angle between the cleaning brushes 3 connected to the first limiting structure 9, the second limiting structure 10, the third limiting structure 11, the fourth limiting structure 12, the fifth limiting structure 13 and the sixth limiting structure 14 is 60° to ensure that there are no dead corners in the cleaning.

[0041] The working principle of the wire rope cleaning device in this utility model is as follows:

[0042] First, fix both ends of the steel wire rope to be cleaned to straighten the steel wire rope;

[0043] Then, move the first semicircular tube 111 to the lower end of the wire rope;

[0044] Then, by connecting the first locking plate and the second locking plate, the second semicircular tube 112 is fixedly connected to the first semicircular tube 111;

[0045] Then, adjust the screw position of the upper limit buckle 4 on the connecting rod 2 so that all the cleaning brushes 3 are in contact with the surface of the wire rope;

[0046] Finally, pull the first semi-circular tube 111 to make the cleaning brush 3 clean the sand and gravel along the surface of the wire rope.

[0047] Based on the wire rope cleaning device, this utility model utilizes a cleaning brush 3 driven by a spring 5 to complete deep cleaning without manual intervention, greatly reducing manpower burden, improving work efficiency, and lowering safety risks and economic costs caused by inadequate wire rope cleaning. This application employs a cleverly designed spring and limiting structure to ensure stable and reliable operation of the device under complex working conditions.

[0048] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of the claims of this utility model.
