Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tower crane equipment technology, and in particular to a counterweight adjustment and locking structure inside the counterweight boom of a tower crane. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of construction engineering, tower cranes are core lifting equipment, and the accuracy of the counterweight adjustment of their counterweight boom directly affects the stability and safety of the equipment's operation. As construction heights continue to increase and lifting loads become increasingly complex, tower cranes need to adjust the position of the counterweight blocks inside the counterweight boom in real time according to different working conditions to maintain the overall torque balance and avoid overturning accidents caused by counterweight imbalance. The counterweight adjustment system of the tower crane counterweight boom usually adopts a combination structure of "motor drive + brake locking". The specific working process is as follows: the transmission mechanism is driven by a servo motor or stepper motor to drive the counterweight block to slide along the guide rail inside the counterweight boom to the target position. After the position is calibrated, the counterweight block is locked and fixed by the electromagnetic brake built into the motor.
[0003] Since the braking capacity of an electromagnetic brake is directly affected by factors such as power supply stability, brake pad wear, and electromagnetic coil aging, when there is a temporary power outage or voltage fluctuation at the construction site, the electromagnetic brake may fail instantly due to power loss and cannot effectively lock the counterweight, posing a safety hazard. In view of the above reasons, this application proposes an internal counterweight adjustment and locking structure for tower crane balance boom. Utility Model Content

[0021] Example like Figure 1-6 As shown, the present invention proposes a counterweight adjustment and locking structure for the internal counterweight of a tower crane balance boom, comprising a balance boom body 1, a sliding plate 2 movably disposed inside the balance boom body 1, slide rails 3 provided on both sides of the inner wall of the balance boom body 1, two sets of guide wheels 4 fixedly disposed at the bottom of the sliding plate 2, the guide wheels 4 and slide rails 3 being movably connected, a rotating roller 5 and a rotating roller 6 movably disposed at the top of the balance boom body 1, a rotating roller 7 movably disposed at the top of the sliding plate 2, mounting seats provided on both sides of the rotating roller 5 and the rotating roller 6, a drive motor 8 provided on one side of each of the two sets of mounting seats, a steel cable wound around the outer wall of the rotating roller 7, the two ends of the steel cable being fixedly connected to the outer walls of the rotating roller 5 and the rotating roller 6 respectively, a connecting column 9 fixedly disposed at the bottom of the sliding plate 2, a counterweight mechanism 10 fixedly disposed at the bottom of the connecting column 9, a locking mechanism 11 provided on both sides of the connecting column 9, the locking mechanism 11 being used to lock the counterweight mechanism 10, thereby improving equipment safety; The locking mechanism 11 includes a toothed plate 111 and a horizontal plate 112. The toothed plate 111 is located above the horizontal plate 112. Two vertical plates 113 are fixedly mounted on the top of the horizontal plate 112. A protective cover 114 is provided on the outside of the two vertical plates 113. Limiting grooves are provided on both sides of the toothed plate 111. Limiting strips 116 are provided on the inner walls of the front and back sides of the protective cover 114. The limiting strips 116 are movably connected to the limiting grooves. Passing grooves 117 are provided on both sides of the protective cover 114 for the toothed plate 111 to pass through. An inspection door 115 is provided on the front of the protective cover 114. The protective cover 114 is used for waterproofing. The dustproof protective cover 114 has a movable locking frame 118 inside, which is located between two vertical plates 113. The two sides of the locking frame 118 are movably connected to the two vertical plates 113 respectively. The bottom inner wall of the protective cover 114 is fixed with a push rod motor 119 and a spring 1110. The output end of the push rod motor 119 is in contact with the bottom of the locking frame 118, and the top of the spring 1110 is in contact with the locking frame 118. The components of the two locking mechanisms 11 are the same. The teeth of the locking frame 118 and the bottom of the tooth plate 111 in the two locking mechanisms 11 are opposite, which can realize bidirectional locking of the counterweight mechanism 10. A cleaning component 12 is fixedly provided on one side of the protective cover 114. The cleaning component 12 is used to clean impurities attached to the surface of the toothed plate 111. The cleaning component 12 includes two support plates 121. The same cleaning plate 125 is movably provided above the two support plates 121. The top of each of the two support plates 121 is fixedly provided with an internal threaded cylinder 122. The two internal threaded cylinders 122 are movably provided with threaded rods 123. An adjusting ring 124 is fixedly provided on the outside of the threaded rods 123. The threaded rods 123 and the internal threaded cylinders 122 can realize the quick disassembly and assembly of the cleaning plate 125, which is convenient for subsequent replacement. The top of each of the two threaded rods 123 is movably connected to the bottom of the cleaning plate 125. The cleaning component 12 can clean impurities on the bottom tooth surface of the toothed plate 111, which can reduce the wear between the lock frame 118 and the toothed plate 111, and can ensure the fitting accuracy and improve the locking stability.
[0022] In this embodiment, there is a distance between the output end of the push rod motor 119 and the lock frame 118, allowing the lock frame 118 to rotate freely. The bottom of the protective cover 114 has multiple through holes for quickly draining rainwater from the protective cover 114. When the position of the counterweight mechanism 10 needs to be adjusted, if the counterweight mechanism 10 is to be moved to the right, the push rod motor 119 on the front of the equipment is activated by the controller. The push rod motor 119 presses the lock frame 118, causing its end to separate from the toothed plate 111. The drive motor 8 and multiple rotating rollers work together to make the slide plate 2 drive the counterweight mechanism 10 to move on the balance arm body 1. The rotating roller 5, rotating roller 6, rotating roller 7 and drive motor 8 in this scheme all use the components in the publication number CN212954031U, and their working principle is the same as that in this scheme. When the counterweight mechanism 10 moves, the lock frame 118 on the back of the equipment engages with the teeth at the bottom of the toothed plate 111. When the lock frame 118 After separating from the inclined surface of the current tooth, the spring 1110 pushes the locking frame 118 to reset and lock onto another tooth, achieving one-way locking of the tooth plate 111. After adjustment, the controller starts the push rod motor 119 on the front of the equipment to retract its output end. Under the push force of the spring 1110, the locking frame 118 resets and locks onto the tooth at the bottom of the tooth plate 111. Together with the locking mechanism 11 on the back, it achieves two-way locking of the counterweight mechanism 10. When the tooth plate 111 moves, the bristles on the cleaning plate 125 fit against the tooth at the bottom of the tooth plate 111, achieving cleaning of impurities on the tooth surface. This can effectively reduce the wear between the locking frame 118 and the tooth plate 111. When replacing the cleaning plate 125, the two adjusting rings 124 are rotated counterclockwise at the same time. The two adjusting rings 124 drive the two threaded rods 123. When the threaded rods 123 are dislodged from the inner threaded cylinder 122, the cleaning plate 125 can be removed and replaced.
[0023] The above specific embodiments are merely several optional embodiments of this utility model. Based on the technical solution of this utility model and the relevant teachings of the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can make various alternative improvements and combinations to the above specific embodiments.
