Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a fall-prevention buffer type elevator counterweight device, belonging to the technical field of elevator counterweight devices. Background Technology

[0002] The counterweight device in an anti-fall buffer elevator functions as a balance and buffer, offsetting most of the car's weight so that the motor only needs to drive the "remaining weight difference," significantly reducing motor load and energy consumption, and extending equipment life. When the elevator experiences "car overspeed fall" or "counterweight overshoot," the buffer absorbs the impact energy through hydraulic damping or spring deformation, preventing the counterweight from directly impacting the bottom or top of the shaft, thus reducing the risk of personal injury and equipment damage.

[0003] For example, CN114890274B discloses an elevator counterweight device for easy fixing of counterweight blocks. The device includes a first frame and a second frame, which are fixedly connected. The second frame is positioned above the first frame. A main shaft is fixedly installed between the first and second frames. A collar is sleeved on the main shaft, and several stacked counterweight blocks are fitted onto the collar. A fixing rod is fixedly installed between the first and second frames, and the counterweight blocks are fitted onto the fixing rod. Adjacent counterweight blocks are stacked and interlocked. Each counterweight block has a protrusion on its upper side and a recess on its lower side, with the protrusion and recess of adjacent counterweight blocks engaging. In use, the counterweight blocks can be easily and quickly installed or removed, significantly reducing elevator maintenance time and greatly increasing the applicability of the invention.

[0004] In the existing technology, counterweights are usually installed by stacking and then directly fastening them, which has certain shortcomings. The fixing of counterweights mostly relies on a single fastener. If it is loose, it can easily cause the counterweight to shift, which poses a safety hazard. In addition, the entire counterweight needs to be disassembled when adjusting or replacing it later, which is cumbersome. Utility Model Content

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please see Figures 1-6 As shown, a fall-prevention buffer type elevator counterweight device includes a counterweight frame 1, a counterweight block 2, a counterweight wire rope 3, an installation component 4, and a limiting component 5. The counterweight frame 1 has a rectangular mounting groove 6 at one end, circular grooves 7 on both sides of the counterweight frame 1, sliding grooves 8 symmetrically opened on both sides inside the counterweight frame 1, guide grooves 9 symmetrically opened at both ends inside the counterweight frame 1, buffers 12 are fixedly installed on both sides of the lower end of the counterweight frame 1, and guide plates 13 are symmetrically installed on both sides of the counterweight frame 1. Limiting grooves 10 are provided on both sides of the weight 2, and guide holes 11 are symmetrically provided at one end of the weight 2. The counterweight wire rope 3 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the counterweight frame 1, and a square wire frame 16 is sleeved on the outside of the counterweight wire rope 3; like Figure 5 As shown, installation component 4 includes: The guide rod 401 is inserted into the guide groove 9. One end of the guide rod 401 extends into the guide hole 11. The outer side of the guide rod 401 is provided with a first positioning screw hole 402 in a linear array. The two ends of the guide rod 401 are provided with a second positioning screw hole 403. The size of the guide rod 401 matches the size of the guide hole 11. A square plate 404 is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 401. A first positioning screw 405 matching the first positioning screw hole 402 is rotatably installed on both sides of one end of the square plate 404. One end of the first positioning screw 405 extends into the first positioning screw hole 402. The second positioning screw is rotatably installed in the mounting groove 6, and the second positioning screw matches the second positioning screw hole 403. A first handwheel 14 is fixedly installed at one end of the second positioning screw. In use, first insert the guide rod 401 along the guide groove 9 inside the counterweight frame 1. At this time, there is a certain gap between the upper end of the guide rod 401 and the counterweight frame 1, facilitating the insertion of the counterweight block 2. Then, insert the counterweight block 2 onto the outside of the guide rod 401. At this time, the guide rod 401 extends into the guide hole 11 of the counterweight block 2, constraining the lateral and longitudinal offset of the counterweight block 2 and preventing... To prevent the counterweight 2 from tilting or misaligning due to accumulated errors and to ensure that the counterweight frame 1 is subjected to uniform force, after the counterweight 2 is stacked according to the rated load requirements, the square plate 404 is placed on the outside of the guide rod 401 and slid to the top of the counterweight 2. Then, the guide rod 401 is manually moved upward so that its upper end moves into the upper guide groove 9 and its lower end moves into the lower guide groove 9. Then, by rotating the first handwheel 14, the second positioning screw is driven to screw into the second positioning screw holes 403 at both ends of the guide rod 401, and the guide rod 401 is fixed inside the counterweight frame 1. At this time, rotate the first positioning screws 405 at both ends of the square plate 404 so that they are screwed into the first positioning screw holes 402 at the corresponding height on the guide rod 401. Through the thread engagement between the first positioning screws 405 and the first positioning screw holes 402, the square plate 404 is firmly fixed on the guide rod 401, thereby pressing and fixing the counterweight 2 to prevent intermittent shaking between the counterweights 2 during elevator operation and reducing vibration noise from the source.

[0024] like Figure 6 As shown, the limiting component 5 includes: The limiting plate 501 is slidably installed in the sliding groove 8, with one end of the limiting plate 501 extending into the limiting groove 10; A threaded rod 502 is rotatably installed in a circular groove 7. One end of the threaded rod 502 is threadedly connected to a limiting plate 501. A second handwheel is fixedly installed at one end of the threaded rod 502. Two circular rods 15 are fixedly installed inside the sliding groove 8. One end of the circular rod 15 is inserted into one side of the limiting plate 501. When in use, the second handwheel is manually turned, and the threaded rod 502 in the circular grooves 7 on both sides of the counterweight frame 1 rotates accordingly. Since the threaded rod 502 is threadedly connected to the limiting plate 501, the rotational motion of the threaded rod 502 can be converted into the horizontal linear motion of the limiting plate 501. Its end gradually embeds into the limiting groove 10 of the counterweight block 2 until it is tightly fitted with the inner wall of the limiting groove 10. At this time, the limiting plate 501 forms a "clamping" constraint from both sides of the counterweight 2, directly restricting the lateral displacement of the counterweight 2; one end of the round rod 15 inside the sliding groove 8 is inserted into one side of the limiting plate 501, providing additional guiding support for the limiting plate 501, preventing it from tilting or jamming when under force, and ensuring that the locking force of the limiting plates 501 on both sides is uniform. The threaded rod 502 adopts a triangular thread design, and its thread helix angle is smaller than the friction angle, which has a natural self-locking function. Under the condition of no external force driving, the threaded rod 502 will not rotate due to the vibration of the elevator operation or the lateral force of the counterweight 2, ensuring that the limiting plate 501 always remains in a locked state, and structurally avoiding the risk of limiting failure.

[0025] Working principle: First, the counterweight 2 is installed inside the counterweight frame 1 using the installation component 4, ensuring that the counterweight 2 is not offset or loose within the counterweight frame 1. The limiting component 5 achieves precise lateral locking of the counterweight 2 through threaded transmission. Combined with the guide structure, this ensures that the counterweight 2 does not move left or right during operation. The guide plates 13, symmetrically installed on both sides of the counterweight frame 1, fit tightly against the counterweight guide rails in the elevator shaft, forming a sliding guide pair. During elevator operation, the guide plates 13 slide along the guide rail surface, directly constraining the lateral swing and rotational tendency of the counterweight frame 1, ensuring that the counterweight frame 1 always moves along the vertical direction, avoiding collisions with the shaft wall or car. The counterweight wire rope 3, as the core component connecting the counterweight frame 1 and the traction system, has a square wire frame 16 on its outer side that acts as a "regulation and constraint". The square wire frame 16 uses a rigid structure to keep the multiple counterweight wire ropes 3 together and in a limited position, preventing the counterweight wire ropes 3 from swinging disorderly due to centrifugal force or airflow disturbance during high-speed elevator operation, and reducing frictional losses between the counterweight wire ropes 3 and the top of the counterweight frame 1 and the traction sheave. The buffers 12 on both sides of the lower end of the counterweight frame 1 are the core actuators for fall protection. When the counterweight frame 1 falls rapidly or hits the top due to abnormal conditions, the buffers 12 will first contact the buffer seat at the bottom of the shaft to absorb the impact energy.
