[0027] A pipe-pile transfer device includes at least two sets of parallel pipe-pile transfer assemblies 10 spaced apart. Each pipe-pile transfer assembly 10 includes a mounting frame 20, a hydraulic cylinder 30, and a plurality of lifting mechanisms 40 connected to the mounting frame 20. Adjacent lifting mechanisms 40 are connected by a connecting rod 50. Each lifting mechanism 40 includes a crank arm 401 and a support frame 402. The hydraulic cylinder 30 is connected to the ground via a first mounting base 60. A drive shaft 70 is connected to the drive end of the hydraulic cylinder 30. One end of the connecting rod 50... The transmission shaft 70 is connected at one end, and the lifting mechanism 40 adjacent to it at the other end. One end of the crank arm 401 is connected to the connecting rod 50, and the other end is connected to the support frame 402. A track beam 80 is connected to the top of the support frame 402. Gears 90 are rotatably connected to both ends of the track beam 80. A chain 100 that meshes with the gears 90 is provided on the track beam 80. The chain 100 is rotatably connected to the track beam 80. A baffle 110 is provided on the chain 100, and a... The baffle 110 forms a slot for placing the pipe bank to be moved. A motor 120 is mounted at one end of the track beam 80, connected to the track beam 80 via a first fixed seat 130. A rotating shaft 140 is mounted on the drive end of the motor 120, with one end connected to the motor 120 and the other end connected to the gear 90. When it is necessary to move the pipe bank from the previous station to the next station, the hydraulic cylinder 30 first drives multiple lifting machines. The lifting mechanism 40 is lifted synchronously, thereby driving the track beam 80 to move upward, so that the slot engages with the pipe bank to be transferred. Then, driven by the motor 120, the gear 90 rotates, which in turn drives the chain 100 to rotate, moving the pipe bank to be transferred from the pipe bank of the previous station to the set position of the next station. Finally, driven by the hydraulic cylinder 30, multiple lifting mechanisms 40 are driven to fall synchronously, thereby driving the track beam 80 to move downward, so that the slot disengages from the pipe bank to be transferred.
[0028] The top end of the track beam 80 is provided with a sliding groove 150, and the chain 100 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 150. The sliding groove 150 is used to limit the chain 100 from shifting during rotation, and also to prevent the chain 100 from rubbing against the track beam 80, which would damage the track beam 80.
[0029] The contact surface between the baffle 110 and the pipe bank to be transferred is an inclined surface 160, which serves as a guide.
[0030] Below the chain 100 is a support plate 170 connected to the support frame 402. The support plate 170 is used to prevent the chain 100 from contacting the crank arm 401 when it is loose.
[0031] The pallet 170 is arc-shaped and serves as a guide when the chain 100 is loosened and rotated.
[0032] The first fixing seat 130 has a second fixing seat 180 on both sides of its top, and the two ends of the rotating shaft 140 are connected to the corresponding second fixing seat 180.
[0033] An encoder 190 is connected to one end of the rotating shaft 140 away from the motor 120. The encoder 190 is used to monitor and control the rotation stroke of the chain 100. When the chain 100 drives the tube to be transferred to the set position, the encoder 190 issues an alarm and the motor 120 stops working.
[0034] The encoder 190 is provided with a protective cover 200 on the side away from the rotating shaft 140. The protective cover 200 is connected to the first fixed base 130 to prevent debris from contacting the encoder 190.
[0035] A counter 210 is connected to the lower part of the protective cover 200. A sensor 220 is connected to one end of the rotating shaft 140 near the counter 210. When the rotating shaft 140 drives the sensor 220 to rotate one revolution, the counter 210 records one revolution. At the same time, the counter 210 is also used to assist in monitoring the rotation stroke of the chain 100.
[0036] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model proposes a pipe-pile transfer device, including at least two sets of parallel pipe-pile transfer assemblies 10. Each pipe-pile transfer assembly 10 includes a mounting frame 20, a hydraulic cylinder 30, and multiple lifting mechanisms 40 connected to the mounting frame 20. Adjacent lifting mechanisms 40 are connected by a connecting rod 50. Each lifting mechanism 40 includes a crank arm 401 and a support frame 402. The hydraulic cylinder 30 is connected to the ground via a first mounting base 60. A drive shaft 70 is connected to the drive end of the hydraulic cylinder 30. One end of the connecting rod 50 is connected to the drive shaft 70, and the other end is connected to the adjacent lifting mechanism 40. One end of the crank arm 401 is connected to the connecting rod 50, and the other end is connected to the support frame 402. A rail is connected to the top of the support frame 402. The track beam 80 has gears 90 rotatably connected to both ends. A chain 100 meshes with the gears 90 on the track beam 80. The chain 100 has baffles 110 and slots formed by the baffles 110 for placing the pipes to be transferred. A motor 120 is located at one end of the track beam 80 and is connected to the track beam 80 via a first fixed base 130. A rotating shaft 140 is located at the drive end of the motor 120, with one end connected to the motor 120 and the other end connected to the gears 90. The advantages of this invention are: small size, minimal space occupation, easy installation, reduced noise during transfer, low manufacturing cost, simple structure, easy operation, and improved transfer efficiency.
[0037] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementations of this utility model, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
