Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of flexible crane technology, and more specifically to a flexible crane handling mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Flexible cranes are advanced lifting equipment characterized by their high flexibility and adaptability, enabling them to adapt to various working environments and conditions. Designed to meet the diverse lifting needs of modern industry and construction, these cranes not only improve operational efficiency but also ensure operational safety.
[0003] Current flexible cranes primarily rely on the coordinated action of transverse and longitudinal guide rails to achieve movement along the x and y axes, thereby completing the lifting and handling of goods. However, when it is necessary to adjust the orientation of the lifted goods, the goods on the hook are usually twisted manually (to adjust the directional angle). When the goods are heavy, manual twisting is not only laborious but also unstable during the twisting process. Utility Model Content
[0004] Other features and advantages of this invention will be set forth in the description which follows, and will be apparent in part from the description, or may be learned by practicing the invention. The objects and other advantages of this invention may be realized and obtained by means of the structures particularly pointed out in the description and other accompanying drawings.
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings and provide a flexible crane handling mechanism.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is: a flexible crane handling mechanism, including a support frame, a turntable rotatably connected to the support frame, a drive device for driving the turntable to rotate on the support frame, a transverse guide rail at the bottom of the turntable, a longitudinal guide rail at the bottom of the transverse guide rail, the support frame including two support plates, arc-shaped grooves in the two support plates, the turntable being rotatably connected to the two arc-shaped grooves; support beams are also provided on the support plates, the drive device including a mounting beam connected to the two support beams, a drive motor mounted on the mounting beam, and a drive wheel at the bottom of the motor, the drive wheel being connected to the turntable via a gear ring structure.
[0007] Furthermore, connecting frames are installed on both the support plate and the support beam.
[0008] Furthermore, the top circumference of the turntable is provided with balls that contact the top of the arc-shaped groove.
[0009] Furthermore, a positioning device for positioning the distance between the two longitudinal guide rails is provided between them, and the positioning device is located below the turntable.
[0010] Furthermore, the positioning device includes two positioning frames mounted on two longitudinal guide rails, a lead screw rotatably mounted between the two positioning frames, and a motor for driving the lead screw to rotate. The lead screw is provided with a first threaded section and a second threaded section with opposite thread directions. The first threaded section is threadedly connected to one of the positioning frames, and the second threaded section is threadedly connected to the other positioning frame.
[0011] Furthermore, a first mounting plate is slidably disposed between the two transverse guide rails, and a second mounting plate is disposed on the longitudinal guide rail away from the first mounting plate. The motor is mounted on the first mounting plate, and a vertical plate that is rotatably connected to the lead screw is disposed on the second mounting plate.
[0012] Furthermore, both positioning clamps have clamping grooves at their bottoms that are adapted to the longitudinal guide rail.
[0013] Furthermore, a pad is provided inside the clamping groove.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The handling mechanism is installed on the roof of the factory building using a support frame, and an electric hoist is installed between the longitudinal guide rails to realize the lifting and hoisting of goods. When it is necessary to adjust the direction and angle of the goods, the drive motor can be started. This motor drives the turntable to rotate slowly through the drive wheel, so that the longitudinal guide rails, transverse guide rails and electric hoist rotate synchronously, thereby driving the hoisted goods to rotate. This method is more labor-saving and convenient than manual turning, and has higher stability. Attached Figure Description

[0019] 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, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0020] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0021] Please see Figure 1-3 This utility model provides a flexible crane handling mechanism, including a support frame, a turntable 2 rotatably connected to the support frame, and two support plates 1. These two support plates 1 are mainly designed for connection to the roof of the factory building. Multiple connecting frames 8 are specially provided on the support plates 1, and these connecting frames 8 are fixed to the roof of the factory building by bolts or other connection structures (these connection structures are well known to those skilled in the art, and therefore will not be described in detail in this embodiment). The two support plates 1 are arc-shaped, each with an arc-shaped groove 6 inside, and the turntable 2 is rotatably connected to these two arc-shaped grooves 6. Specifically, the outer rotating part of the turntable 2 is embedded in the arc-shaped groove 6 and can rotate freely within it. In addition, the support frame is also equipped with a drive device 3 for driving the turntable 2 to rotate. The bottom of the turntable 2 is provided with a transverse guide rail 4, and the bottom of the transverse guide rail 4 is slidably provided with a longitudinal guide rail 5, with the transverse guide rail 4 and the longitudinal guide rail 5 arranged in pairs at intervals. An electric hoist (not shown in the figure) is arranged between the two longitudinal guide rails 5. The electric hoist is used for lifting and hoisting operations of goods. The sliding connection structure between the transverse guide rail 4 and the longitudinal guide rail 5 is well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
[0022] To enhance the overall stability of the handling mechanism, support beams 7 are configured on the support plate 1. Multiple connecting frames 8 are provided on the support beams 7 for connection to the factory building. In this embodiment, the drive device 3 includes a mounting beam 31 connected to the two support beams 7, a drive motor 32 mounted on the mounting beam 31, and a drive wheel located at the bottom of the motor. The mounting beam 31 not only mounts the drive motor 32 but also connects to two transverse guide rails 4 to improve the stability of the structural connection. The drive wheel is connected to the turntable 2 via a gear ring structure. By rotating the drive motor 32, the drive wheel 33 is driven to rotate, thereby driving the turntable 2 to rotate.
[0023] To improve the smoothness of turntable 2's rotation, ball bearings 9 are arranged circumferentially on the top of turntable 2, contacting the top of the arc-shaped groove 6. The rolling of the ball bearings 9 makes the turntable 2 rotate more smoothly.
[0024] In actual operation, when it is necessary to adjust the direction and angle of the cargo, this can be achieved by operating the drive motor 32. This drive motor 32, connected to the drive wheel 33, effectively drives the turntable 2 to rotate slowly and smoothly. As the turntable 2 rotates, the longitudinal guide rail 5, the transverse guide rail 4, and the electric hoist rotate synchronously, thereby causing the hoisted cargo to rotate in a predetermined direction and angle. Compared to the traditional method of manual twisting, this method controlled by the drive motor 32 is not only more labor-saving but also more convenient to operate. Furthermore, because the entire rotation process is precisely controlled by the motor, it also provides higher stability, ensuring the safety of the cargo during hoisting.
[0025] The electric hoist is installed on two longitudinal guide rails 5 via a roller assembly (the electric hoist is located between the two longitudinal guide rails 5; the specific installation method of the electric hoist is well known to those skilled in the art, and therefore will not be described in detail in this embodiment). The two longitudinal guide rails 5 must maintain a certain distance. To ensure accurate positioning of the distance between the two longitudinal guide rails 5, a positioning device is installed between the two guide rails. This positioning device is located below the turntable 2, and its positioning rotation can be synchronized with the turntable 2.
[0026] In this embodiment, the positioning device consists of two positioning frames 10, a lead screw 11, and a motor. The lead screw 11 is installed between the two positioning frames 10, and the motor is used to drive the lead screw 11 to rotate. The lead screw 11 is provided with a first threaded section 12 and a second threaded section 13 with opposite thread directions, which are threadedly connected to the two positioning frames 10 respectively.
[0027] To facilitate the installation of the lead screw 11 and the motor, a first mounting plate 14 is slidably disposed between the two transverse guide rails 4. The first mounting plate 14 and the two transverse guide rails 4 can be fixed together by a fixing device. This fixing device can employ common structures such as motor-driven screws. For example, in this embodiment, electric telescopic rods 18 can be used on both sides of the first mounting plate 14 to drive abutments against the transverse guide rails 4 for fixing. A second mounting plate 16 is disposed on the longitudinal guide rail 5 away from the first mounting plate 14. The motor is mounted on the first mounting plate 14, while the second mounting plate 16 has a vertical plate 15 rotatably connected to the lead screw 11.
[0028] Both positioning clamps have a clamping groove 17 at their bottom that matches the longitudinal guide rail 5, and a pad is placed in the clamping groove 17 to reduce wear on the longitudinal guide rail 5 and provide protection. The mounting bracket is assembled with the longitudinal guide rail 5 through the clamping groove 17. First, the first mounting plate 14 is fixed to the two transverse guide rails 4 by controlling the fixing device. Then, the motor is started, and the motor drives the lead screw 11 to rotate, thereby driving the two positioning brackets 10 to move towards or away from each other, realizing the relative movement of the two longitudinal guide rails 5, and adjusting the distance between the two longitudinal guide rails 5 to adapt to the installation requirements of electric hoists of different specifications. When the motor stops rotating, the fixing device is unlocked (the two side abutments separate from the transverse guide rails 4), which facilitates the movement of the electric hoist on the transverse guide rails 4. The two positioning brackets 10 fix the distance between the two longitudinal guide rails 5 under the action of the lead screw 11, which facilitates the assembly of the electric hoist and further improves the stability of the operation between the guide rails during cargo handling.
