[0039] like Figures 1 to 11 As shown, according to a first aspect of the present invention, a rope tooth coupling structure is provided, which includes a rope body 1, a rope buckle 2, a roller 3, and a drive wheel 4.

[0040] In the following description, reference will be made to Figures 1 to 11 The specific structure of the above-mentioned components of the rope-tooth joint structure and the connection relationship of the above-mentioned components are described in detail.

[0041] like Figures 1 to 11 As shown, in this embodiment, the rope 1 can be formed into a loop. Specifically, the rope 1 can be a steel wire rope. There can be multiple ropes 1, and adjacent ropes 1 can be spaced apart. Multiple rope loops 2 can be respectively disposed on multiple ropes 1. Each rope 1 has multiple rope loops 2, which are spaced apart along the rope 1. Rollers 3 can be disposed on the rope loops 2. The rope loops 2 on adjacent ropes 1 can be connected by rollers 3, thereby connecting adjacent ropes 1 together. Multiple ropes 1 are wound around a drive wheel 4. The drive wheel 4 has multiple toothed grooves 40, and the rollers 3 can be engaged within the toothed grooves 40. This arrangement allows the rope 1 to bear the weight of the load 41, and the mating structure of the rollers 3 and the toothed grooves 40 prevents the rope 1 from slipping, thus meeting the requirements of single-sided large load transmission in the rope-tooth combination structure.

[0042] Preferred, such as Figure 1 and Figure 11As shown, in this embodiment, the rope buckle 2 and the rope body 1 can be fixed together by casting or riveting to achieve the positioning of the rope buckle 2 on the rope body 1. The positions of the rope buckles 2 on multiple rope bodies 1 can correspond to each other to facilitate connection between the rope buckles 2. The rollers 3 can be set on opposite sides of the rope buckles 2, so that each rope body 1 can be connected to the adjacent rope bodies 1 on both sides. The rollers 3 can be integrally formed with the rope buckles 2. The extension direction of the rollers 3 can be perpendicular to the extension direction of the rope body 1. The ends of the rollers 3 on adjacent rope bodies 1 are connected to each other. Specifically, two rollers 3 can pass through the same shaft to achieve the connection between the rollers 3.

[0043] Preferred, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, each rope body 1 may include several rope bundle groups 10, and the rope bundle group 10 may be a steel wire rope. The rope bundle group 10 may include a central rope bundle 101 and outer peripheral rope bundles 102, with multiple outer peripheral rope bundles 102 surrounding the central rope bundle 101. Specifically, each rope bundle group 10 may have six outer peripheral rope bundles 102, which are sufficient to encircle the central rope bundle 101 (this is not limited to the number of outer peripheral rope bundles 102 in the rope bundle group 10; for example, five outer peripheral rope bundles may be used). Both the central rope bundle 101 and the outer peripheral rope bundles 102 may be steel wire. More preferably, as... Figure 2 As shown, the central rope bundle 101 and the outer peripheral rope bundle 102 can be composed of multiple wire bundles 1000, and the wire bundles 1000 can be steel wires with a smaller diameter (i.e. smaller diameter than the central rope bundle 101 or the outer peripheral rope bundle 102).

[0044] Preferably, in such Figure 3 and Figure 4 In the illustrated embodiment, the rope buckle 2 can be disposed on the outside of the rope body 1. A through hole 21 extending axially (i.e., the axial direction of the rope body 1) can be formed in the center of the rope buckle 2, and the through hole 21 passes through the rope buckle 2. Each rope body 1 may include only one rope bundle 10. The rope bundle 10 passes through the through hole 21 (i.e., both the central rope bundle 101 and the outer peripheral rope bundle 102 pass through the through hole 21), thereby installing the rope buckle 2 on the outside of the rope body 1.

[0045] Preferably, in such Figures 5 to 7 In the illustrated embodiment, the rope buckle 2 can be disposed inside the rope body 1. Each rope body 1 may include only one rope bundle group 10. A plurality of peripheral rope bundles 102 in the rope bundle group 10 can be wound around the outside of the rope buckle 2 to install the rope buckle 2 inside the rope body 1.

[0046] Specifically, such as Figures 5 to 7As shown, in this embodiment, the cord buckle 2 has a central hole 22 extending axially (i.e., the axial direction of the rope body 1) through its center. The central hole 22 passes through the cord buckle 2. The central rope bundle 101 can be inserted through the central hole 22. Multiple arc-shaped grooves 20 can be formed on the outer surface of the cord buckle 2. These arc-shaped grooves 20 can extend approximately axially (i.e., the overall extension direction of the arc-shaped grooves 20 is the axial direction of the rope body 1). The number of arc-shaped grooves 20 can be equal to the number of peripheral rope bundles 102, allowing multiple peripheral rope bundles 102 to be correspondingly engaged within the multiple arc-shaped grooves 20, thereby installing the cord buckle 2 inside the rope body 1. Preferably, the number of peripheral rope bundles 102 and arc-shaped grooves 20 can both be six, with the six arc-shaped grooves 20 evenly distributed around the outer periphery of the cord buckle 2.

[0047] Preferably, in such Figures 8 to 10 In the illustrated embodiment, the rope buckle 2 can be disposed inside the rope body 1. Each rope body 1 may include multiple rope bundles 10. The multiple peripheral rope bundles 102 can be wound around the outside of the rope buckle 2 to install the rope buckle 2 inside the rope body 1. Preferably, the number of rope bundles 10 in each rope body 1 can be four to ensure the strength of the rope body 1.

[0048] Specifically, such as Figures 8 to 10 As shown, in this embodiment, multiple arc-shaped grooves 20 can be formed on the outer surface of the rope buckle 2. These arc-shaped grooves 20 can extend approximately axially (i.e., the overall extension direction of the arc-shaped grooves 20 is the axial direction of the rope body 1). The number of arc-shaped grooves 20 can be equal to the number of rope bundles 10, allowing multiple rope bundles 10 to be correspondingly engaged within the multiple arc-shaped grooves 20, thereby installing the rope buckle 2 inside the rope body 1. Preferably, the cross-section of the rope buckle 2 can be square. The number of arc-shaped grooves 20 can be four, and the four arc-shaped grooves 20 can be respectively located at the four corners of the rope buckle 2, with the rope bundles 10 partially engaged within the arc-shaped grooves 20.

[0049] In addition, preferred, such as Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the rope body 1 may further include multiple rope segments 11, meaning the rope body 1 is not a complete loop, but rather formed by joining multiple rope segments 11 together. Adjacent rope segments 11 can be connected by rope buckles 2. Specifically, the number of rope buckles 2 may be the same as the number of rope segments 11, and the rope buckles 2 are disposed between the rope segments 11. The two ends of each rope segment 11 are fixed to the rope buckles 2, allowing multiple rope segments 11 to be connected into the rope body 1 via multiple rope buckles 2.

[0050] Preferred, such as Figure 11As shown, in this embodiment, multiple ropes 1 are simultaneously wound around a drive wheel 4. A load 41 is mounted on the ropes 1, and the drive wheel 4 can drive the ropes 1 to move the load 41. Multiple toothed grooves 40 are spaced apart on the outer periphery of the drive wheel 4. The toothed grooves 40 can extend radially along the drive wheel 4. Rollers 3 can be simultaneously engaged within the multiple toothed grooves 40 on the drive wheel 4, so that even if the load 41 is concentrated on one side of the rope 1, the engaging structure of the toothed grooves 40 and the rollers 3 can prevent the rope 1 from slipping.

[0051] Furthermore, according to a second aspect of the present invention, a drive system is provided, which can be a drive system in a gravity energy storage device. The drive system includes the rope-tooth coupling structure as described above.

[0052] During use, designers can set the required number of ropes 1 according to different actual working conditions, and can selectively place the rope buckle 2 inside or outside the rope 1, as well as adjust the number of rope bundles 10 and rope segments 11 in the rope 1. This achieves diversification of the design form of the rope-tooth combination structure, thereby effectively meeting different working conditions. The drive wheel 4 has multiple toothed grooves 40, and the roller 3 can be engaged in the toothed grooves 40. This arrangement allows the rope 1 to bear the weight of the load 41, and the cooperation structure between the roller 3 and the toothed grooves 40 can prevent the rope 1 from slipping, thus meeting the working conditions of single-sided large load transmission of the rope-tooth combination structure.

[0053] Finally, it should be noted that the above-described embodiments are merely specific implementations of this application, used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and not to limit them. The scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto.
