Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wire rope cleaning and lubrication technology, specifically a wire rope cleaning and lubrication device. Background Technology

[0002] As a key load-bearing component in lifting, transportation, and traction equipment, wire rope is widely used in container hoisting, cranes, and other technical fields. Its performance directly affects the safety and service life of the equipment. Cleaning and lubrication are the core aspects of wire rope maintenance. During operation, wire rope easily attracts impurities such as dust, sand, and metal shavings. These particles rub against each other between the strands, abrading the surface of the wire like sandpaper, leading to the propagation of micro-cracks and accelerating fatigue fracture. Surface residue can isolate lubricating oil, preventing it from playing its role in rust prevention. Traditional lubrication devices often fail to adequately lubricate the wire rope, resulting in poor lubrication performance. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a cleaning and lubrication device for steel wire ropes to improve the lubrication effect of steel wire ropes.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A cleaning and lubrication device for steel wire ropes, comprising: A wire rope sleeve has openings at the top and bottom. A brush is provided on one side of the inner wall of the wire rope sleeve. The wire rope passes through the wire rope sleeve. The brush is used to remove dust from the surface of the wire rope, thereby facilitating the subsequent lubrication of the wire rope. A wire rope lubrication assembly includes a sponge ball and a lubrication chamber. An oil inlet is located on one side of the lubrication chamber, through which lubricating oil enters the chamber. The sponge ball absorbs the lubricating oil. A first through-hole is evenly distributed around the perimeter of a wire rope sleeve. The sponge ball is placed within the first through-hole and rotates within it. When the wire rope passes through the wire rope sleeve, it drives the sponge ball to rotate, and the sponge ball applies lubricating oil to the surface of the wire rope.

[0005] Preferably, the sponge ball has a rotating shaft at both ends, and the sponge ball rotates around the rotating shaft. An elastic component is provided on one side of the rotating shaft. The elastic component includes a limiting rod, a spring, and a limiting block. The limiting block is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft. The surface of the limiting block has a second through hole. The limiting rod passes through the second through hole. One end of the spring is fixed to one end of the limiting rod, and the other end of the spring is fixed to one side of the second through hole.

[0006] Preferably, each of the two sets of rotating shafts has a fixed box on one side. One end of the fixed box is fixedly connected to the lubrication chamber. The fixed box is installed in the lubrication chamber and has a hollow structure. Both ends of the limiting rod are fixedly connected to the fixed box. The fixed box has a limiting groove on the side near the rotating shaft. The limiting block is placed in the fixed box. The rotating shaft passes through the limiting groove and is connected to the limiting block. When the wire rope passes through the wire rope sleeve, the rotating shaft slides in the limiting groove under the elastic force of the spring. The sponge ball is in close contact with the wire rope, thereby ensuring that the sponge ball evenly applies lubricating oil to the surface of the wire rope. When wire ropes of different sizes pass through the wire rope sleeve, the elastic force of the spring drives the limiting block to move in the fixed box, thereby driving the rotating shaft and the sponge ball to move, so that the sponge ball is in close contact with the wire rope.

[0007] Preferably, the outer wall surface of the lubrication chamber is provided with a mounting plate, and the surface of the mounting plate is provided with screw holes. The screw holes are used to install screws to fix the lubrication chamber and the wire rope sleeve, thereby fixing the device.

[0008] Preferably, the wire rope sleeve is provided with a detachable sleeve, which is fitted onto the inner wall of the wire rope sleeve. The surface of the detachable sleeve is uniformly provided with hemispherical covers, which are fitted onto the surface of the sponge ball. Sealing rings are fitted on both sides of the inner wall of the hemispherical cover. When the sponge ball is not in use, the hemispherical cover is fitted onto the surface of the sponge ball, and the sealing rings are used to prevent the leakage of lubricating oil adsorbed on the sponge ball.

[0009] Preferably, the outer wall of the detachable sleeve is provided with a slide rail, and the inner wall of the wire rope sleeve is uniformly provided with a slide groove, and the slide rail slides in the slide groove.

[0010] Preferably, a cover plate is provided on one side of the detachable sleeve, and an elastic rubber ring is provided on one side of the cover plate. When the hemispherical cover is fitted onto the sponge ball, the cover plate abuts against one side of the wire rope sleeve, and the elastic rubber ring is snapped onto the outer wall of the wire rope sleeve, thereby fixing the detachable sleeve onto the wire rope sleeve.

[0011] Beneficial effects: In the wire rope cleaning and lubrication device disclosed in this utility model, the wire rope passes through the wire rope sleeve, and the brush sweeps away the dust on the surface of the wire rope. When wire ropes of different sizes pass through the wire rope sleeve, the elastic force of the spring drives the limiting block to move in the fixed box, thereby driving the rotating shaft and the sponge ball to move, so that the sponge ball is in close contact with the wire rope, thus ensuring the lubrication effect of the wire rope. When the sponge ball is not in use, the hemispherical cover is fitted on the surface of the sponge ball, and the sealing ring is used to prevent the leakage of lubricating oil adsorbed on the sponge ball.

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. The following text is only used to describe a cleaning and lubrication device for steel wire rope of the present utility model, and does not strictly limit the protection scope of the specific claims of the present utility model.

[0016] Example 1: As Figures 1-6 As shown, a cleaning and lubrication device for wire ropes includes: Wire rope sleeve 1, such as Figure 1 The wire rope sleeve 1 is open at the top and bottom. A brush 5 is provided on one side of the inner wall of the wire rope sleeve 1. The wire rope passes through the wire rope sleeve 1. The brush 5 is used to remove dust from the surface of the wire rope, thereby facilitating the subsequent lubrication of the wire rope. Wire rope lubrication components, such as Figure 3 As shown, the wire rope lubrication assembly includes a sponge ball 13 and a lubrication chamber 2. An oil inlet 8 is installed on one side of the lubrication chamber 2, through which lubricating oil enters the lubrication chamber 2. The sponge ball 13 absorbs the lubricating oil. The wire rope sleeve 1 is provided with first through holes 22 evenly around its perimeter. The sponge ball 13 is placed in the first through hole 22 and rotates within the first through hole 22. When the wire rope passes through the wire rope sleeve 1, it drives the sponge ball 13 to rotate, and the sponge ball 13 applies lubricating oil to the surface of the wire rope.

[0017] In Example 1, as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the sponge ball 13 has a rotating shaft 16 at both ends, and the sponge ball 13 rotates around the rotating shaft 16. An elastic component is provided on one side of the rotating shaft 16. The elastic component includes a limiting rod 18, a spring 19 and a limiting block 20. The limiting block 20 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 16. The surface of the limiting block 20 is provided with a second through hole 21. The limiting rod 18 passes through the second through hole 21. One end of the spring 19 is fixed to one end of the limiting rod 18, and the other end of the spring 19 is fixed to one side of the second through hole 21.

[0018] In Example 1, as Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, each of the two sets of rotating shafts 16 has a fixed box 15 on one side. One end of the fixed box 15 is fixedly connected to the lubrication chamber 2. The fixed box 15 is installed in the lubrication chamber 2 and has a hollow structure. Both ends of the limiting rod 18 are fixedly connected to the fixed box 15. The fixed box 15 has a limiting groove 17 on the side near the rotating shaft 16. The limiting block 20 is placed in the fixed box 15. The rotating shaft 16 passes through the limiting groove 17 and connects to the limiting block 20. When the wire rope passes through the wire rope sleeve 1, the spring 19 causes the rotating shaft 16 to slide within the limiting groove 17, and the sponge ball 13 adheres tightly to the wire rope, thereby ensuring that the sponge ball 13 evenly applies lubricating oil to the surface of the wire rope. When wire ropes of different sizes pass through the wire rope sleeve 1, the spring 19 causes the limiting block 20 to move within the fixed box 15, thereby causing the rotating shaft 16 and the sponge ball 13 to move, so that the sponge ball 13 adheres tightly to the wire rope.

[0019] In Example 1, as Figure 1 As shown, the outer wall surface of the lubrication chamber 2 is provided with a mounting plate 3, and the surface of the mounting plate 3 is provided with screw holes 7. The screw holes 7 are used to install screws to fix the lubrication chamber 2 and the wire rope sleeve 1 to fix the device.

[0020] Example 2: Figure 2 As shown, the wire rope sleeve 1 is provided with a detachable sleeve 4, which is sleeved on the inner wall of the wire rope sleeve 1. The surface of the detachable sleeve 4 is uniformly provided with hemispherical covers 11, which are sleeved on the surface of the sponge ball 13. Sealing rings 12 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the hemispherical cover 11. When the sponge ball 13 is not in use, the hemispherical cover 11 is sleeved on the surface of the sponge ball 13. The sealing rings 12 are used to prevent the leakage of lubricating oil adsorbed on the sponge ball 13.

[0021] In Example 2, as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the outer wall of the detachable sleeve 4 is provided with slide rails 9, and the inner wall of the wire rope sleeve 1 is uniformly provided with slide grooves 14, and the slide rails 9 slide within the slide grooves 14.

[0022] In Example 2, as Figure 2 As shown, a cover plate 10 is provided on one side of the detachable sleeve 4, and an elastic rubber ring 6 is provided on one side of the cover plate 10. When the hemispherical cover 11 is fitted onto the sponge ball 13, the cover plate 10 abuts against one side of the wire rope sleeve 1, and the elastic rubber ring 6 is snapped onto the outer wall of the wire rope sleeve 1, thereby fixing the detachable sleeve 4 onto the wire rope sleeve 1.

[0023] When the device is in use, if the sponge ball 13 is not in use, the cover plate 10 abuts against one side of the wire rope sleeve 1, the elastic rubber ring 6 is snapped onto the outer wall of the wire rope sleeve 1, the hemispherical cover 11 is fitted onto the surface of the sponge ball 13, and the sealing ring 12 is used to prevent the leakage of lubricating oil adsorbed on the sponge ball 13. When in use, the slide rail 9 slides out from the slide groove 14, the detachable sleeve 4 is removed, the wire rope passes through the wire rope sleeve 1, and the brush 5 sweeps away the dust on the surface of the wire rope. When wire ropes of different sizes pass through the wire rope sleeve 1, the elastic force of the spring 19 drives the limiting block 20 to move within the fixed box 15, thereby driving the rotating shaft 16 and the sponge ball 13 to move, so that the sponge ball 13 is in close contact with the wire rope, thus ensuring the lubrication effect of the wire rope.

[0024] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. For those skilled in the art, after learning the contents of the present utility model, they can make several equivalent changes and substitutions without departing from the principle of the present utility model. These equivalent changes and substitutions should also be considered to fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
