[0019] Please see Figures 1-3 This utility model provides an embodiment: a working cylinder tilting device, including a frame 1, wherein the frame 1 is provided with a clamping assembly 2, a transverse rotation assembly 3, a lifting assembly 4 and a longitudinal rotation assembly 5 from bottom to top. Each assembly works together to realize the clamping, rotation, lifting and tilting actions of the working cylinder. The specific structure is as follows: The clamping assembly 2 includes a base 21, with L-shaped clamping arms 22 rotatably mounted on both the left and right sides of the base 21. The bottom of each L-shaped clamping arm 22 is connected to a jaw fixing rod 23, and the adjacent sides of each jaw fixing rod 23 are connected to jaws 24. The inner side of the jaws 24 is provided with an anti-slip and wear-resistant layer made of vulcanized rubber with a diamond pattern on the surface to enhance the friction with the working cylinder. The outer sides of each jaw 24 are provided with a first drive assembly for controlling the rotation of the L-shaped clamping arms 22.
[0020] The first drive assembly includes a first hydraulic cylinder 25 disposed on both sides of the two grippers 24. The top of the cylinder body of the first hydraulic cylinder 25 is hinged to the turntable 31 of the transverse rotation assembly 3. The output end of the first hydraulic cylinder 25 is rotatably connected to a fixing block 26. The fixing block 26 is connected to the adjacent gripper fixing rod 23. The L-shaped gripping arm 22 is driven to rotate around the base 21 by the extension and retraction of the first hydraulic cylinder 25, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the grippers 24.
[0021] The horizontal rotation assembly 3 includes a turntable 31 connected to the base 21. A tray 33 is provided on the top of the turntable 31. The tray 33 is rotatably connected to the turntable 31. The tray 33 and the turntable 31 are rotatably connected through a rotary support structure.
[0022] Specifically, the top of the turntable 31 has a groove with an inverted T-shaped rotating body structure, and the bottom of the tray 33 is connected to the tray base 331. The tray base 331 is located inside the groove and is fitted with the groove with a gap. Several rolling bearings are provided between the groove and the tray base 331, which are evenly distributed along the circumference to reduce rotational friction. The size of the tray base 331 matches the groove and is rotatably connected to the groove. The tray 33 is provided with a second drive assembly for controlling the rotation of the turntable 31.
[0023] The second drive assembly includes a gear ring 32 sleeved on the outer layer of the turntable 31. A first motor 34 is connected to the side of the tray 33. A drive gear 35 is connected to the output end of the first motor 34. The drive gear 35 meshes with the gear ring 32. The turntable 31 is driven by the forward and reverse rotation of the first motor 34 to drive the clamping assembly 2 and the working cylinder to achieve 360° lateral rotation.
[0024] The lifting assembly 4 is positioned between the horizontal rotation assembly 3 and the vertical rotation assembly 5. The lifting assembly 4 includes multiple lifting cylinders, specifically four cylinders arranged in a rectangular pattern. The tops of the four lifting cylinders are connected to the rotating drum 51, and their output ends are connected to the tray 33. The four lifting cylinders are synchronous lifting cylinders, driven by the same hydraulic control system, and guide components are provided between the multiple lifting cylinders.
[0025] The guide assembly includes a guide post and a guide sleeve that slide against each other. The top end of the guide post is fixedly connected to the rotating drum 51, and the bottom end of the guide sleeve is fixedly connected to the tray 33. The guide assembly restricts the horizontal displacement of the tray 33 to ensure that the lifting process is smooth and without shaking.
[0026] The longitudinal rotation component 5 includes a rotating drum 51, with rotating drum connecting shafts 52 connected to both sides of the rotating drum 51. The two rotating drum connecting shafts 52 are rotatably connected to the frame 1 through bushings. The bushings are made of high-strength wear-resistant cast iron and have lubrication channels in the inner ring. The frame 1 is equipped with a third drive component for controlling the rotation of the rotating drum 51.
[0027] The third drive assembly includes a second motor 54 connected to the frame 1. The left-side rotating drum connecting shaft 52 extends out of the frame 1. The left end of the left-side rotating drum connecting shaft 52 and the output end of the second motor 54 are both connected to sprockets 55. The two sprockets 55 are connected by a transmission chain 53. The second motor 54 is a hydraulic motor. The second motor 54 drives the rotating drum 51 to rotate around the rotating drum connecting shaft 52, thereby driving the lifting assembly 4, the horizontal rotation assembly 3 and the clamping assembly 2 to achieve longitudinal flipping.
[0028] The bottom of frame 1 is equipped with leveling feet, which can adjust the levelness of frame 1.
[0029] Working principle of this utility model: 1. In the initial state, the gripper 24 is in the open state. The lifting assembly 4 controls the gripper 24 to move down and place the working cylinder to be processed between the two grippers 24. The piston rod of the first hydraulic cylinder 25 is driven to extend and push the gripper fixing rod 23 to drive the L-shaped clamping arm 22 to rotate inward around the base 21 until the gripper 24 is tightly attached to the outer surface of the working cylinder, thus completing the clamping. After that, the lifting assembly 4 controls the gripper 24 to rise.
[0030] 2. If it is necessary to adjust the horizontal angle of the working cylinder, start the first motor 34. The first motor 34 drives the drive gear 35 to rotate. Through the meshing transmission of the gear and the gear ring 32, the turntable 31 drives the base 21, the L-shaped clamping arm 22 and the working cylinder to rotate synchronously until the preset angle is reached, then the first motor 34 stops.
[0031] 3. If it is necessary to adjust the pitch angle of the working cylinder, the control system starts the second motor 54. The second motor 54 drives the rotating drum connecting shaft 52 and the rotating drum 51 to rotate through the sprocket 55 and the transmission chain 53. The rotating drum 51 drives the lifting component 4, the horizontal rotation component 3, the clamping component 2 and the working cylinder to rotate synchronously around the rotating drum connecting shaft 52 until the preset flip angle is reached, after which the second motor 54 stops.
[0032] IV. After the working cylinder is processed, drive each component to move in reverse order, and complete the longitudinal reset, height reset and lateral reset in sequence. Finally, the piston rod of the first hydraulic cylinder 25 retracts, the gripper 24 opens, the working cylinder is removed, and the device returns to its initial state.
[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
