The third generation "Monkey Car"

Patent number: ZL201510050884.6

1. Overview

The mining rope traction track type overhead passenger device is an updated product of the traditional "monkey car". It mainly consists of a driving device, a load-bearing track, a traction steel wire rope, a passenger device, a roundabout wheel device, a track adjustment device, a tensioning device, a safety protection device, and an electrical control device. It has the conditions of not falling off ropes, preventing rope detachment, and is suitable for tunnels with large slopes and multiple bends in the same direction or S-shaped bends; It is a new type of modern underground personnel transportation equipment with large transportation capacity, more comfortable riding, and higher safety performance.

  

The passenger device is divided into I-beam rail passenger device and angle steel rail passenger device. The passenger device mainly consists of roller components, roller brackets, cable grippers (patent number: ZL 201410620073.0), connecting plates, hanging chairs, etc.

3. Product advantages

3.1 Do not fall off the rope

 Due to the fact that the steel wire rope does not bear the load, the load is borne by the load-bearing track, and the rollers on the track run on the track. The rollers inside the track are connected to the gripper that clamps the steel wire rope, and there is a rope wheel group that supports the steel wire rope along the line. Therefore, there will be no phenomenon of rope dropping or detachment, which is the biggest advantage compared to traditional "monkey cars" and fundamentally eliminates the safety hazards of personal injury.

3.2 Rope pulleys and pressure pulleys without support

 Due to the absence of supporting and pressing rope pulleys at the slope changing points and straight sections in the system, the resistance during system operation is smaller and the operation is smoother and smoother.

3.3 Arbitrary turns

 It can adapt to complex tunnels with variable slopes, multiple turns, same direction turns, and S-shaped bends.

3.4 Adaptation to steep slopes
    Can adapt to the operation of tunnels with large slopes and variable slope points of ≤ 28 °.

3.5 Simple form of gripper

 The traditional "monkey car" fixed gripper, large slope detachable hanging gripper, and movable gripper have been replaced by a unified fixed gripper. When the hanging method is needed, only the hanging chair needs to be removed, thus achieving the transportation of people and materials in the track lane.

3.6 Large capacity

Compared with the operation mode of steel wire rope load-bearing and traction, the transportation volume exceeds 30% or more.

3.7 Simple management

 Due to being a fixed gripper, it has the advantages of not dropping ropes and not speeding, as well as convenient and simple management.

3.8 Transportation of personnel and materials in the same lane

 Due to the detachable hanging of the hanging chair, it is possible to achieve joint transportation of personnel and rail, improving transportation efficiency.
