[0002] Cranes are widely used in engineering construction, logistics handling, and other fields. The hinge support device is one of the core load-bearing components of a crane, mainly used to realize the relative rotation between the boom and the slewing platform and to transfer loads. Existing crane hinge support devices have several shortcomings in use: First, the support structure has poor wear resistance. After long-term exposure to alternating loads and friction, wear gaps easily appear, leading to loose connections and affecting the crane's operational stability. Second, the buffering performance is insufficient. When the crane starts, brakes, or is subjected to impact loads, severe vibrations easily occur at the hinge point, which not only reduces the service life of the device but may also cause safety hazards.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, there is an urgent need to design a crane hinge support device with good wear resistance and excellent buffering performance to improve the operational safety and economic efficiency of cranes. Utility Model Content

One end of each elastic buffer element is inserted into a fixing groove. A bearing is provided on the outer ring of the elastic buffer element, and the inner ring of the bearing abuts against one end of the elastic buffer element. The support base has a mounting groove for mounting the bearing. A reinforcing assembly is provided on the support base. The reinforcing assembly includes a reinforcing rod and a fixing nut. The support base includes a base plate and a connecting plate. The connecting plate is fixedly installed on both sides of the base plate.

[0018] 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.
[0019] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution: a crane hinge point support device, including a support base 1 and a hinge point shaft 2. The support base 1 has an internal mounting hole 3, and a wear-resistant sleeve 4 is fixedly embedded in the mounting hole 3. The hinge point shaft 2 passes through the wear-resistant sleeve 4, and the hinge point shaft 2 and the wear-resistant sleeve 4 are clearance-fitted. A buffer assembly is provided between the hinge point shaft 2 and the support base 1. The buffer assembly includes a movable ring 5 and several sets of elastic buffer members 6. The inner wall of the movable ring 5 is fixedly connected to the wear-resistant sleeve 4, and the outer ring of the movable ring 5 is provided with several fixing grooves 7. One end of the elastic buffer member 6... Inserted into the fixing groove 7, the outer ring of the elastic buffer 6 is provided with a bearing 8, and the inner ring of the bearing 8 abuts against one end of the elastic buffer 6. The support base 1 is provided with a mounting groove for installing the bearing 8. The support base 1 is provided with a reinforcing component, which includes a reinforcing rod 9 and a fixing nut 10. The support base 1 includes a base plate 11 and a connecting plate 12. The connecting plate 12 is fixedly installed on both sides of the base plate 11. The reinforcing rod 9 has a U-shaped structure and is sleeved on the outside of the connecting plate 12. The other end of the reinforcing rod 9 is detachably connected to the base plate 11.
[0020] Furthermore, the wear-resistant sleeve 4 is made of high-strength ceramic matrix composite material, and an annular oil groove 13 is formed on its inner wall. The annular oil groove 13 is evenly distributed along the axial direction of the wear-resistant sleeve 4, and the annular oil groove 13 is filled with solid grease.
[0021] In this embodiment, the solid grease in the annular oil groove 13 can form a continuous and stable lubricating film between the hinge shaft 2 and the wear-resistant sleeve 4, reducing dry friction.
[0022] Furthermore, connecting ears 14 are symmetrically fixedly installed on both sides of the base plate 11. The connecting ears 14 are provided with connecting holes, and the connecting ears 14 can be securely connected to the slewing platform of the crane or other basic components by bolts.
[0023] Furthermore, one end of the reinforcing rod 9 is provided with a threaded post, and the fixing nut 10 is installed on the threaded post.
[0024] In this embodiment, after the U-shaped open end of the reinforcing rod 9 is fitted onto the outer side of the connecting plates 12 on both sides, the threaded post at its end can extend through the mating holes 16 on both sides of the base plate 11 into the groove 15. By tightening the fixing nut 10, the reinforcing rod 9 can be firmly locked onto the support base 1, so that the connecting plates 12 on both sides are subjected to an inward preload, which effectively enhances the overall resistance to lateral deformation of the support base 1. Especially when the crane boom is subjected to lateral load, stress concentration can be avoided at the weld between the connecting plate 12 and the base plate 11.
[0025] Furthermore, the bottom of the base plate 11 is provided with an embedded groove 15, and the two sides of the base plate 11 are provided with mating holes 16. One end of the reinforcing rod 9 is inserted into the mating hole 16. When the fixing nut 10 is tightened, its top will not exceed the bottom surface of the base plate 11, ensuring the flatness of the support device during installation.
[0026] Furthermore, the elastic buffer 6 is a cylindrical rubber buffer block, one end of which is fixed in the fixing groove 7 of the outer ring of the movable ring 5 by interference fit, and the other end is in close contact with the end face of the inner ring of the bearing 8.
[0027] In this embodiment, when the crane starts, brakes, or the boom swings to generate an impact load, the axial movement of the hinge shaft 2 is transmitted to the moving ring 5 through the wear-resistant sleeve 4, and then the elastic buffer 6 converts the impact energy into elastic potential energy, effectively attenuating the vibration amplitude.
[0028] Furthermore, the bearing 8 is a self-aligning roller bearing, and its outer ring is interference-fitted with the mounting groove on the support seat 1. The bearing 8 can adjust the position of the buffer assembly to prevent severe local wear.
[0029] Furthermore, dustproof sealing caps 17 are provided at both ends of the wear-resistant sleeve 4, and the inner ring of the dustproof sealing cap 17 is tightly fitted to the outer wall of the hinge shaft 2.
[0030] In this embodiment, the dustproof sealing cover 17 can effectively prevent external dust, sand, rainwater and other impurities from entering the wear-resistant sleeve 4.
[0031] Working principle: During crane operation, when the boom drives the hinge shaft 2 to rotate, a lubrication layer is formed between the hinge shaft 2 and the wear-resistant sleeve 4 through the solid grease in the annular oil groove 13, reducing friction loss. The wear-resistant sleeve 4, made of high-strength ceramic matrix composite material, can withstand the wear of long-term alternating loads, extending the service life of the device. If the crane starts, brakes, or is subjected to impact loads, the axial impact force of the hinge shaft 2 will be transmitted to the movable ring 5 through the wear-resistant sleeve 4. The movable ring 5 drives the elastic buffer 6 to compress. The cylindrical rubber buffer block absorbs the impact energy through its own elastic deformation. At the same time, the self-aligning roller bearing 8 can adapt to the slight wobble of the hinge shaft 2, avoiding stress concentration. The U-shaped reinforcing rod 9 in the reinforcing assembly can effectively disperse the lateral load borne by the connecting plate 12, preventing the connecting plate 12 from deforming due to excessive force, and ensuring the structural stability of the support base 1. In addition, the connecting ears 14 on both sides of the base plate 11 can be fixedly connected to the crane slewing platform with bolts.
