Description

Tilting elevator and method for operating a tilting elevator

Technical Field

The invention relates to a tilting elevator, comprising: at least one guide rail for a conveyor carriage guided thereon, drawn by a cable and mounted movably on the tilting elevator, on which the containers can be placed, for moving the containers from an initial position into a loading position; the first and second cables are guided by the winch via at least one first cable drum for the first cable and a second deflection mechanism for the second cable to the transport carriage, and for moving the transport carriage, the first and second cables are arranged so as to be deflectable at the transport carriage in a movement-proof manner via the first transport carriage cable drum for the first cable and the second transport carriage cable drum for the second cable. The invention further relates to a method for operating such a tilting elevator.

Background

It is known for operating metallurgical furnaces to fill the scrap stored in a trench into a container, the so-called scrap container, which is pivotably supported in a tilting elevator and can be moved up to the edge of the loading opening of a loaded furnace shaft located on a metallurgical furnace vessel, where the container is pivoted by means of a tilting device arranged at the tilting elevator car in order to fill the scrap into the metallurgical furnace vessel through the loading opening, if the scrap container arrives at the top, the furnace shaft flaps are open and the scrap is given into the furnace shaft by tilting of the container, the scrap vehicle is moved by means of a winch as the rope is pulled.

A first task of the present invention is therefore to specify a tilting elevator which solves the above-mentioned problems. A second task of the invention is a method for operating such a tilting elevator.

The first task is solved by specifying a tilting elevator comprising: at least one guide rail for a conveyor carriage guided on the guide rail, drawn by a cable and mounted movably on the tilting elevator, on which conveyor carriage the containers can be placed, for moving the containers from an initial position into a loading position; a first cable and a second cable, which are guided by the winch via at least one first cable pulley for the first cable and a second deflection mechanism for the second cable toward the transport carriage and which, for moving the transport carriage, are arranged so as to be deflectable, secured against movement, at the transport carriage via a first transport carriage cable pulley for the first cable and a second transport carriage cable pulley for the second cable, wherein a compensating beam which is movable about a pivot point is provided, wherein the compensating beam (10) is mounted so as to be movable in a linear guide unit, and wherein the first cable is guided by the first deflection mechanism and the second cable is guided from the transport carriage toward the compensating beam via the second cable pulley and can be fastened at the compensating beam. The compensating beam is mounted in a movable manner in the linear guide unit. Advantageously, the compensating beam thus also fulfils the function of tensioning the rope. Thus, it can also be described as a tension weight.

The second task is solved by specifying a method for operating a tilting elevator comprising: at least one guide rail for a conveyor carriage guided on the guide rail, drawn by a cable and mounted movably on the tilting elevator, on which conveyor carriage the containers can be placed, for moving the containers from an initial position into a loading position; a first cable and a second cable, which are guided by the winch via at least one first cable disk for the first cable and a second deflection mechanism for the second cable toward the transport carriage and which, for moving the transport carriage, are arranged so as to be deflectable in a manner preventing movement at the transport carriage via a first transport carriage cable disk for the first cable and a second transport carriage cable disk for the second cable, wherein a cable compensation takes place via a compensation beam which can be moved about a pivot point, via which the first cable is guided and fastened via the first deflection mechanism and via which the second cable is guided and fastened from the transport carriage toward the compensation beam, wherein the compensation beam (10) is mounted movably in a linear guide unit with two guide elements, wherein the first guide element, in particular a slotted hole, and the second guide element are the pivot point, thereby creating a tension of the first rope and a tension of the second rope.

The transport carriage moves with the rope traction through the winch. The individual cables are thereby guided redundantly by the winch upward around the lower two cable guides. The first cable is then deflected by the first cable drum in the direction of the transport carriage. Where the rope is deflected by a first transport carriage rope drum and guided by a first deflection mechanism to a compensating beam. The second cable is then deflected at the first cable drum in the direction of the transport carriage and from there via the second transport carriage cable drum and via the second deflection mechanism to the compensating beam.

Here, the balance beam can be said to function as a seesaw. According to the invention, the compensating beam is responsible for the cable balancing in that both cables are always loaded with the same strength. If one rope is shorter than the other, the shorter rope experiences the entire load and the longer rope is not loaded at all without the counterweight. This is avoided by the compensating beam according to the invention, since it ensures a uniform loading of the two ropes. Furthermore, pulses are caused when the container/transport carriage is loaded. However, with the invention, this advantageously does not lead to an overload of the tensioned rope, but is damped by a slight lifting of the compensating beam. Thus, the balance beam also acts as a pulse buffer.

Further advantageous measures are recited in the dependent claims, which can be combined with one another as desired to achieve further advantages.

Preferably, the first transport carriage cable drum is smaller than the second transport carriage cable drum. With two cable drums of different sizes, it is possible for the cables to be guided parallel to one another to the upper cable drum/deflection mechanism without an angular offset.

The equalizer beam has a horizontal axis. Preferably, the balance beam has a slope about the horizontal axis of the level. That is, the equalizer bar is tilted forward, here in particular at ζ = 8 °. The vertical cable strand, i.e. the cable strand coming from the winch, for example, via the cable guide, is thus not contacted.

Preferably, the first cable drum is arranged parallel to the first deflection means and the second cable drum is arranged parallel to the second deflection means on a common axis. The common axis has a first end region and a second end region. In a preferred embodiment, the first cable drum and the first deflection means are arranged in the first end region, and the second cable drum and the second deflection means are arranged in the second end region. Furthermore, a lower first cable guide is provided, via which the first cable can be guided by the winch to the first cable drum and subsequently to the transport carriage, and a lower second cable guide is provided, via which the second cable can be guided by the winch to the second deflection means and subsequently to the transport carriage. The first cable can be guided by the transport carriage via the first deflection means to the compensating beam, and the second cable can be guided by the transport carriage via the second deflection means to the compensating beam. The first and second cords do not overlap at any time. The rope guide from the rope guide to the deflector mechanism/rope disc is substantially vertical.

In a preferred embodiment, the first cable drum and the first cable guide device and the second deflection means and the second cable guide device are oriented toward one another in a vertical plumb line.

Likewise, the first cable reel has a spacing from the first deflection mechanism that is equal to a spacing of the second cable reel and the second deflection mechanism.

Likewise, the first cable drum and the second cable drum have the same cable drum diameter, and the first deflection mechanism and the second deflection mechanism have the same deflection mechanism diameter. The cable drum diameter is greater than the deflection means diameter. In this case, of course, an inverted design is also possible.

The compensating beam can be designed as a two-sided lever with lever arms of the same length which are rotatably mounted at the pivot point. Thereby, the seesaw function for the balancing rope can be more preferably realized.

The equalizer bar is preferably fastened at the tilt elevator. Also, at least one sensor can be provided at the balance beam. In a preferred embodiment, the compensating beam is mounted so as to be movable in a linear guide unit. The linear guide unit is a long hole, in particular a vertical long hole, with which the lifting movement can be performed by the compensating beam. That is to say, the compensating beam can be pivoted not only about the pivot point, but also such that a guided and predetermined vertical movement is effected downwards or upwards. The vertical movement is limited by the elongated hole. The linear guide unit therefore comprises two guide elements, wherein the first guide element is designed as an elongated hole and the second guide element is designed as a pivot point. The pivot point of the compensating beam is therefore not fixed, but is guided by the pin and the slot. The slot can be milled into the compensating beam, for example, and is located in the middle between the two lever arms of the compensating beam; the pivot point can be designed as a pin. Advantageously, the compensating beam thus also fulfils the function of rope tensioning. Thus, it can also be described as a tension weight. If the transport carriage with the container reaches the lower loading position, the winch also continues to rotate slightly. The rope continues to be held under tension by lowering the equalizer beam. But before the balance beam is in its lower position, a proximity switch mounted, for example, at the balance beam causes the operation of the winch to stop. The cord now continues to remain under tension (as desired) and does not jump from the disc/deflector mechanism.

Preferably, at least one sensor can be provided at the balance beam. By means of the upward/downward movement of the compensating beam, the sensor can detect a correct movement into the lower end position of the transport carriage with the container when the transport carriage with the container is moved into the lower end position. The linear guide unit is therefore advantageously equipped with a sensor which detects the position of the lower part of the balance beam.

In a preferred embodiment, the winch comprises a drum, in particular a monoblock or catamaran drum, which is fastened to the winch frame, wherein the drum can be driven by an electric motor via a transmission. Also, the winch can have an overwind guard. In addition to the service brake, two disc brakes can advantageously be fastened. The overwind protection ensures correct winding of the rope on the drum and the slack rope detection triggers an emergency circuit breaker in an emergency. For emergency situations, two disc brakes are also fastened at the winch in addition to the service brake.

The transport carriage also has at least two front wheels with a track for moving the transport carriage on at least one guide rail. Preferably, the transport carriage comprises at least two main supports, wherein the first transport carriage cable loop and the second transport carriage cable loop can be integrated into the main supports, so that the first cable and the second cable run outside the track of the transport carriage.

The cable run thereby runs outside the track of the transport carriage, in particular of the waste vehicle. The conveying carriage cable drum can be integrated into a main support of the vehicle. The position of the transport carriage cable drum is thus located in the region of the center of gravity of the container. Thus, the synchronization of the vehicle is almost the same in the upward and downward running. Thus, for waste vehicles, the falling/fallen waste does not damage the rope. Preferably, the first transport carriage cable pulley and the second transport carriage cable pulley are of different sizes, so that the cables do not rub against one another. The transport carriage plate is integrated into a main support of the vehicle. It is thereby avoided that, if the waste material falls from the vehicle in an unfavorable situation during the lifting of the container, in particular of the waste material container, this waste material can fall between the rails and can damage the cable.

Furthermore, it is avoided that waste material caught in the vehicle flaps can migrate under the vehicle and damage the cable.

In a special embodiment, the compensating beam has a damping, in particular a hydraulic damping or a spring. Thereby a buffered rope balance can be achieved.

Tilting elevators are particularly suitable for performing the method according to the invention. Likewise, tilting elevators can be used in particular in steel mills, but are not limited to this application.

Detailed Description

While the invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to a preferred embodiment, the invention is not limited to the disclosed example. Variants therein can be derived by the person skilled in the art without leaving the scope of protection of the invention, which is defined, for example, by the following patent claims.

Fig. 1 shows a tilting elevator 3 with a guide rail 5 for a conveying carriage 4 guided at the guide rail, which is drawn by a cable and is mounted movably on the tilting elevator 3, on which conveying carriage 7 is placed, which serves to move the container 7 from an initial position a into a loading position B with a loading opening 6 for a metallurgical vessel (not shown) in a melting system, first of all, the conveying carriage 4 is located in the initial position a, in which initial position a the container 7 filled with scrap is drawn in the direction of the loading position B, in which loading position B the scrap located in the container 7 is emptied into a loading shaft (not shown) when the container 7 is tilted about a pivot axis (not shown) running transversely to the longitudinal direction of the guide rail 5 and perpendicularly to the drawing plane in the region of the front of the container, the guide rail 5 has a gradient α relative to the horizontal plane, the container 7 moves with the cable.

Fig. 2 shows in schematic part a tilting elevator 3 according to the invention. The tilting elevator has a first rope 1a and a second rope 1 b. The first and

second cables

1a, 1b are guided redundantly by the winch 8 around the lower first cable guide 12a to the first cable drum 11a and around the lower second cable guide 12b to the second deflection device 22 b. The cable 1a is then deflected by the smaller cable drum 11a in the direction of the transport carriage 4 (fig. 1). In the transport carriage 4 (fig. 1), the first transport carriage cable loop 44a is guided in a deflected manner in the direction of the first deflection means 22a and thus the first cable 1a is guided in the direction of the compensating beam 10. The cable 1b is then deflected by the second deflection means 22b in the direction of the transport carriage 4 (fig. 1). In the transport carriage 4 (fig. 1), the cable is now guided around the second transport carriage cable plate 44b in a deflected manner toward the second cable plate 22b and thus the second cable 1b is guided toward the compensating beam 10. The pivot point 9 of the compensating beam 10 is located on a displaceable slide (Kulissenstein). The guide of the slide is fastened at the steel structure of the tilting elevator 3. The compensating beam 10 is thereby fastened indirectly via the pivot point 9 at the tilting elevator 3. It is to be noted that the first transport carriage cable disc 44a has a smaller diameter than the second transport carriage cable disc 44 b. It is thereby possible to guide the

cables

1a, 1b parallel to one another to the

cable drums

11a, 11b or to the deflection means 22a, 22b without angular offset. Furthermore, the first cable drum 11a and the second cable drum 11b have a smaller cable drum diameter 33 than the first deflection means 22a and the second deflection means 22 b.

The first cable disk 11a is arranged parallel to the first deflection means 22a and the second cable disk 11b is arranged parallel to the second deflection means 22b on the common axis 13. In this case, a first cable disk 11a and a first deflection means 22a are arranged in the region of a first end of the axis, and a second cable disk 11b and a second deflection means 22b are arranged in the region of a second end of the axis 13. Furthermore, the first cable reel 11a has a spacing from the first deflection means 22a which is equal to the spacing of the second cable reel 11b and the second deflection means 22 b.

The drive means of the winch 8 comprise a one-piece drum fastened to the winch frame. Such a drum is driven by an electric motor 17 via a transmission 19. The overwind protection ensures correct winding of the

rope

1a, 1b on the drum and the slack rope detection triggers an emergency circuit breaker in an emergency. For emergency situations, two disc brakes (not shown) are also fastened at the winch 8 in addition to the service brakes 18.

The first rope 1a and the second rope 1b are thereby fastened at the movable equalizing beam 10. The compensating beam 10 has a pivot point 9 about which it can move.

Fig. 3 shows such a compensating beam 10 in particular. The compensating beam 10 is designed here as a two-sided lever with lever arms of the same length which are mounted so as to be pivotable at the pivot point 9. The balance beam 10 has a horizontal axis 14. Preferably, the balance beam 10 has a slope around such a horizontal axis 14 that is, the balance beam 10 is inclined forward, here in particular at ζ = 8 °. The vertical cable strand, i.e. the cable strand coming from the winch 8 (fig. 2), for example, via the cable guides 12a, 12b (fig. 2), is thus not contacted.

The balance beam 10 is movably supported in the linear guide unit. The linear guide unit comprises a vertical slot 16 as a first guide element, by means of which a lifting movement can be carried out by means of the compensating beam 10, and a pivot point 9 as a second guide element. The elongated hole 16 can be milled, for example, and the pivot point 9 is a pin.

The compensating beam 10 on the one hand assumes the function of rope balancing. The counterweight 10 is responsible for the rope balancing in that both

ropes

1a, 1b are always loaded with the same strength. If one rope is shorter than the other, the shorter rope experiences the entire load and the longer rope is not loaded at all without the counterweight 10. To avoid this, a compensating beam 10 is installed, which acts approximately as a seesaw, and which ensures a uniform loading of the two

cables

1a, 1 b.

The second function of the balance beam 10 is to tension the rope. The compensating beam can therefore also be referred to as a tensioning weight. The pivot point 9 of the compensating beam 10 is not fixed but is guided by a pin and a vertical slot 16. If the container 7 (fig. 1) reaches the lower initial position a (fig. 1), the winch 8 (fig. 2) also slightly continues to rotate. The

ropes

1a, 1b continue to be held under tension by lowering the balance beam 10. Before the balance beam 10 is in its lower position, the proximity switch 20 causes the operation of the winch 8 (fig. 2) to stop. The

ropes

1a, 1b now continue to remain (as desired) under tension and do not jump from the rope drum.

The third function of the balance beam 10 is that of a pulse buffer. When the container 7 is loaded (fig. 1) a pulse is caused. However, this does not lead to overloading of the tensioned rope, but rather is damped by a slight lifting of the tensioning weight.

Also, at least one sensor (not shown), but preferably two sensors, is provided at the balance beam 10. These sensors are advantageously arranged in or at the linear guide unit. By means of the upward/downward movement of the compensating beam 10, the sensor can detect a correct movement into the container 7 or the transport carriage 4 (fig. 1) when the transport carriage 4 (fig. 1) is moved into the lower initial position a (fig. 1).

The linear guide unit is integrated into the steel structure.

The container 7 (fig. 1) comprises at least two front wheels for moving the transport carriage 4 (fig. 1) on at least one guide rail. Furthermore, the transport carriage 4 (fig. 1) comprises at least two main carriages. The first conveying carriage cable loop 44a (fig. 2) and the second conveying carriage cable loop 44b (fig. 2) can be integrated into the main support as a first variant different from the above description, such that the first cable 1a and the second cable 1b run outside the track of the conveying carriage 4 (fig. 1). This prevents waste material from falling between the rails and damaging the cable when it falls from the container 7 (fig. 1) in an unfavorable situation during the lifting of the waste material vehicle. Furthermore, when the container 7 (fig. 1) is tilted, not all the waste material can slide out of the container 7 (fig. 1), but can be tilted (verkanten) below the container flaps. This skewed scrap also damages the ropes if the elevator is moved downward again. However, this is now avoided.
