Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hydropower engineering equipment technology, and in particular to a sluice gate storage device. Background Technology

[0002] In industrial sectors such as water conservancy and hydropower, large sluice gates are critical isolation devices. For example, in SRU (System Redundancy Unit) systems, sluice gates are typically used to isolate water intake siphon wells. These sluice gates are usually designed to be normally closed and are equipped with specialized lifting devices for vertical installation.

[0003] However, existing designs generally suffer from a flaw: they only design working positions for the sluice gates, without planning dedicated storage locations. During annual operational trials, periodic inspections, or corrosion maintenance, the sluice gates need to be lifted off the working shaft. Due to the lack of dedicated storage, workers can only place the heavy sluice gates horizontally on the ground. Since the sluice gates' specialized lifting equipment can only perform vertical lifting and cannot be horizontally rotated, subsequent lifting operations become extremely difficult and complex.

[0004] An existing hoisting and storage method is cumbersome and risky: First, a truck crane uses one hook connected to a special lifting device to vertically lift the sluice gate above the ground; then, another hook is used to connect to the side of the sluice gate via a sling; next, the sluice gate is completely removed using the two hooks; finally, a difficult unhooking operation with the special lifting device is required in the air to lay the sluice gate flat on the ground. This method has obvious drawbacks: it is complex, time-consuming, and inefficient; more importantly, the unhooking operation in the air is difficult and poses a very high safety risk, easily causing equipment damage or personal injury. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a sluice gate storage device.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: a sluice gate storage device is constructed, including a base, a frame and a guide rail assembly. The upper part of the frame is open, and the bottom of the frame is fixedly connected to the base to form a semi-open storage space for accommodating the sluice gate. The guide rail assembly is connected to the inner side wall of the frame to guide the sluice gate into the frame. The base includes a base frame and a support platform for supporting the sluice gate. The support platform is fixedly connected to the base frame, and the base frame extends outward from the support platform to prevent the device from tipping over by increasing the support base area.

[0007] Furthermore, the frame includes at least four longitudinal beams, at least two sets of crossbeams, and at least two sets of support beams. The four longitudinal beams are symmetrically arranged, and the bottom of each longitudinal beam is fixedly connected to the base. The two sets of crossbeams are arranged opposite each other in the length direction and are fixedly connected to the two longitudinal beams respectively. The two sets of support beams are arranged opposite each other in the width direction and are fixedly connected to the two longitudinal beams respectively. The guide rail set is fixedly connected to the crossbeam set respectively.

[0008] Furthermore, the frame also includes at least two bottom beams, which are arranged opposite each other and at the same height in the width direction, with the bottom surface of the bottom beams being higher than the bottom surface of the base to form a gap between the bottom beams and the ground for forklift operation.

[0009] Furthermore, the guide rail assembly includes at least two guide rails, which are arranged opposite each other along the length direction and are respectively fixedly connected to the adjacent crossbeam assembly.

[0010] Furthermore, the frame is a hollow structure that facilitates relevant inspections and anti-corrosion operations.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a lifting frame for placing a special lifting device, which is mounted on one side of the frame and fixedly connected to the base.

[0012] Furthermore, the lifting frame includes a placement platform supporting the special lifting device and two guide limiting members arranged opposite to each other. Each guide limiting member is fixedly connected to the base frame and extends along the height direction of the frame. The placement platform is fixedly connected to the lower part of the two guide limiting members.

[0013] Furthermore, it also includes a work platform for operators to work on, the work platform being located on one side of the frame and fixedly connected to the base.

[0014] Furthermore, the work platform includes a work platform and a ladder, the ladder being fixedly connected to the base frame, and the work platform being fixedly connected to both the ladder and the frame. Alternatively, the work platform may include a work platform, a ladder, and a support frame, with the ladder fixedly connected to the base frame and the work platform fixedly connected to both the ladder and the support frame.

[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a safety belt fastener for providing a safety belt buckle position for the operator, the safety belt fastener being positioned above the work platform and fixedly connected to the frame.

[0016] By implementing this utility model, the following beneficial effects can be achieved: This utility model's sluice gate storage device, through the setting of a dedicated storage space and guide rail assembly, allows the sluice gate to be directly and vertically hoisted into the device by a special lifting tool, and then unhooked on a stable working platform. This completely avoids the high-risk aerial unhooking operation, significantly reducing the risk of personnel crush injuries and equipment falls. It simplifies the sluice gate hoisting and storage process and effectively shortens the maintenance period. Attached Figure Description

[0018] To provide a clearer understanding of the technical features, objectives, and effects of this utility model, the specific embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.

Thus, features defined with "first," "second," etc., may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0021] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or a chemical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0022] See Figures 1 to 5 One embodiment of this utility model discloses a sluice gate storage device for storing sluice gates and their dedicated lifting equipment. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the sluice gate storage device includes a base 1, a frame 2, and a guide rail assembly 3. The upper part of the frame 2 is open, and the bottom of the frame 2 is fixedly connected to the base 1 to form a semi-open storage space for accommodating the sluice gate. The guide rail assembly 3 is connected to the inner wall of the frame 2 to guide the sluice gate as it enters.

[0023] like Figure 3 As shown, the base 1 includes a base frame 11 and a support platform 12 for supporting the sluice gate. The support platform 12 is fixedly connected to the base frame 11. The base frame 11 extends outward from the support platform 12 to prevent the device from overturning by increasing the support base area.

[0024] The bottom of frame 2 is fixedly connected to base 1 by welding, forming a semi-open space with a top opening to accommodate the sluice gate. Guide rail assembly 3 is fixed to the inner wall of frame 2 by welding, providing precise guidance for the vertical entry of the sluice gate and ensuring its smooth placement. Base 11 includes a base frame 11 and a support platform 12. The support platform 12, made of thick steel plate, directly supports the weight of the sluice gate and is welded to the base frame 11. The base frame 11 extends outward from the support platform 12, forming a support frame 2 with an area much larger than the platform itself. This increases the support base area to effectively prevent the entire device from tipping over when storing heavy objects. To prevent tipping, ground anchors can be driven into both sides of frame 2, and the upper part of frame 2 can be further protected by securing it with wire ropes. In practical applications, the base frame 11 can be welded from structural steel (such as H-beams or channel steel) into a grid structure to reduce its weight while ensuring structural strength.

[0025] Furthermore, in some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, frame 2 includes at least four longitudinal beams 21, at least two crossbeam groups 22, and at least two support beam groups 23. The four longitudinal beams 21 are symmetrically arranged, and the bottom of each longitudinal beam 21 is fixedly connected to the base 1. The two crossbeam groups 22 are arranged opposite each other in the length direction and are fixedly connected to two longitudinal beams 21 respectively. The two support beam groups 23 are arranged opposite each other in the width direction and are fixedly connected to two longitudinal beams 21 respectively. The length direction and the width direction are perpendicular to each other, and guide rail groups 3 are fixedly connected to the crossbeam groups 22 respectively.

[0026] The frame 2 can be welded from structural steel. Frame 2 includes four vertically arranged longitudinal beams 21, symmetrically positioned at the four corners of the rectangle. Frame 2 also includes two sets of transverse beams 22, arranged opposite each other along the length direction. Each set of transverse beams 22 consists of at least two parallel transverse beams, welded to the front and rear longitudinal beams 21 respectively. Frame 2 includes two sets of support beams 23, arranged opposite each other along the width direction. Each set of support beams 23 also consists of multiple support beams, welded to the left and right longitudinal beams 21. The length and width directions are perpendicular to each other. The guide rail assembly 3 is welded and fixed to the transverse beam assemblies 22. Alternatively, the number of longitudinal beams 21, transverse beam assemblies 22, and support beam assemblies 23 can be increased according to the size and weight of the sluice gate. For example, for an extra-long sluice gate, six longitudinal beams 21 and more transverse supports can be provided.

[0027] Furthermore, the frame 2 also includes at least two bottom beams 24, which are arranged opposite each other and at the same height in the width direction. The bottom surface of the bottom beams 24 is higher than the bottom surface of the base 1 to form a gap between the bottom beams 24 and the ground for forklift operation.

[0028] The two base beams 24 are arranged opposite each other in the width direction and at the same height. Crucially, the bottom surface of the base beam 24 is designed to be higher than the bottom surface of the base 1; preferably, the bottom surface of the base beam 24 is designed to be higher than the top surface of the base 1, thus naturally creating a sufficient height gap between the base beam 24 and the ground. This gap is a forklift slot specifically designed for forklift arm insertion, allowing the forklift to easily lift the entire device for transport, greatly improving the equipment's mobility. Optionally, two limiting rods 25 may be symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the base beam 24 for guiding the forklift insertion position.

[0029] Furthermore, in some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the guide rail assembly 3 includes at least two guide rails 31, which are arranged opposite each other along the length direction and are respectively fixedly connected to the adjacent crossbeam assembly 22.

[0030] Two guide rails 31 are arranged opposite each other along their length and are welded to or bolted to the adjacent crossbeam assembly 22. The working surface of the guide rails 31 can be covered with wear-resistant steel plates or inlaid with high-molecular-weight polyethylene sliders to reduce friction and wear when the sluice gate is inserted.

[0031] Furthermore, in some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, frame 2 is a hollow structure that facilitates relevant inspections and anti-corrosion operations.

[0032] In this embodiment, the frame 2 adopts a hollow structure made of steel profiles. This design not only reduces the weight of the device, but more importantly, it facilitates visual inspection, non-destructive testing, and surface anti-corrosion work of the sluice gates stored in the sluice gate storage device from various angles, without the need to move the sluice gates multiple times.

[0033] Furthermore, in some embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the sluice gate storage device also includes a lifting frame 4 for placing special lifting equipment. The lifting frame 4 is located on one side of the frame 2 and is fixedly connected to the base 1. Specifically, the lifting frame 4 includes a placement platform 41 for supporting the special lifting equipment and two guide limiting members 42 arranged opposite to each other. Each guide limiting member 42 is fixedly connected to the base frame 11 and extends along the height direction of the frame 2. The placement platform 41 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the two guide limiting members 42.

[0034] Each guide limiting member 42 is a vertically arranged angle steel or channel steel, with its lower end welded to the base frame 11 and its upper part free. A placement platform 41 is welded to the lower part of the two guide limiting members 42. When storing special lifting tools, their handles are inserted between the two guide limiting members 42, serving to guide and prevent the lifting tools from tipping over, ensuring safe and tidy tool management on site. The placement platform 41 can be in two parts, with a portion of the placement platform 41 located at the lower part of each guide limiting member 42.

[0035] Furthermore, in some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the sluice gate storage device also includes a work platform 5 for operators. The work platform 5 is located on one side of the frame 2 and is fixedly connected to the base 1. In one implementation of this embodiment, the work platform 5 includes a work bench 51 and a ladder 52. The ladder 52 is fixedly connected to the base frame 11, and the work bench 51 is fixedly connected to both the ladder 52 and the frame 2. The work bench 51 can be welded to the longitudinal beam 21 or support beam of the frame 2 and reinforced with bolts. In another implementation, the work platform 5 includes a work bench 51, a ladder 52, and a support frame. The ladder 52 is fixedly connected to the base frame 11, and the work bench 51 is fixedly connected to both the ladder 52 and the support frame. One end of the work bench 51 is connected to the ladder 52, and the other end is supported by the support frame. This structure is suitable for applications with strict requirements on the lateral load of the frame 2.

[0036] Furthermore, in some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the sluice gate storage device also includes a safety belt fastener 6 for providing a safety belt anchor point for operators. The safety belt fastener 6 is positioned above the work platform 5 and is fixedly connected to the frame 2. This further ensures safety during high-altitude operations. A safety belt fastener 6, such as a D-ring, is welded to the top of the frame 2, above the work platform 5. When operators perform operations such as unhooking on the work platform 5, they can attach their safety belt hooks here, effectively preventing the risk of falls from height.

[0037] The working principle of this sluice gate storage device is as follows: In use, the sluice gate storage device is transported to the designated area using a forklift (utilizing the clearance). A truck crane uses a special sluice gate lifting tool to vertically lift the sluice gate, then aligns it with the space between the guide rails 3 and slowly lowers it. The guide rails 31 guide the sluice gate accurately and smoothly onto the support platform 12 of the base 1. Subsequently, the special lifting tool automatically disengages from the sluice gate. The truck crane continues to operate to insert the special lifting tool into the lifting tool rack 4 on one side for storage. The entire process is safe, smooth, and efficient, completely solving the various problems existing in the background technology.

[0038] By implementing this utility model, the following beneficial effects can be achieved: This utility model's sluice gate storage device, through the setting of a dedicated storage space and guide rail assembly 3, allows the sluice gate to be directly and vertically hoisted into the device by a special lifting tool, and then unhooked on a stable working platform 5. This completely avoids the high-risk aerial unhooking operation and significantly reduces the risk of personnel crush injuries and equipment falls. It simplifies the process of sluice gate hoisting and storage, and effectively shortens the maintenance period.

These all fall within the protection scope of the present utility model, that is, the embodiments described "in some embodiments" can be freely combined with any of the embodiments above and below.
