[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0037] This application provides a powertrain for a transport vehicle, which will be described in detail below. It should be noted that the order of description of the following embodiments is not intended to limit the preferred order of the embodiments of this application. Furthermore, the descriptions of each embodiment have their own emphasis; parts not described in detail in a certain embodiment can be referred to in the relevant descriptions of other embodiments.

[0038] To address the technical problems in existing transport vehicle powertrains, such as haphazard wiring and low support strength due to single-sided support of the drive wheel 22, an embodiment of this application provides a transport vehicle powertrain. This is described in detail below.

[0039] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a powertrain for a transport vehicle includes...

[0040] 1. Seat body; 3. Hydraulic system; 2. Drive system; and 4. Controller.

[0041] The controller 4 is located on the right side of the base 1;

[0042] The drive system 2 includes a drive motor 21, a drive wheel 22 and a reduction device 23. The drive wheel 22 is mounted on the lower end of the base 1 via a wheel axle, and both ends of the wheel axle are engaged with the base 1.

[0043] The drive motor 21 is arranged in a left-right direction on the base 1. Its left side is the output end and is connected to the speed reduction device 23 for transmission, and its right side is the wiring end and is connected to the controller 4 for electrical connection.

[0044] Specifically, as an optional implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the seat 1 includes a middle seat 11, a left seat 12 and a right seat 13, and the controller 4 is located on the right side of the middle seat 11;

[0045] The drive wheel 22 is mounted between the left seat 12 and the right seat 13 via a wheel axle. The left seat 12 extends toward the rear of the middle seat 11 to form a motor mounting plate 14. A drive motor 21 is mounted on the right side of the motor mounting plate 14. The reduction device 23 is located on the left side of the left seat 12 and the motor mounting plate 14.

[0046] In this embodiment, a handle seat and a cylinder seat are provided on the intermediate seat 11. The handle seat and the cylinder seat are integrally formed with the intermediate seat 11. The handle seat is connected to a handle connector, and a hydraulic cylinder 34 is installed inside the cylinder seat.

[0047] In this embodiment, the hydraulic system 3 includes a hydraulic motor 31, an oil tank 32, a gear pump assembly (not shown in the figure), a solenoid valve 33, and a hydraulic cylinder 34. The hydraulic cylinder 34 is housed in a cylinder seat, the oil tank 32 is located outside the left side seat 12, the gear pump assembly is housed in the oil tank 32 and forms an oil circuit connection with the hydraulic cylinder 34, while also forming a transmission connection with the hydraulic motor 31. The solenoid valve 33 connects the hydraulic cylinder 34 and the oil tank 32, and is used to unload oil from the hydraulic cylinder 34. During operation, the drive motor 21 drives the gear pump assembly to work, and the gear pump assembly delivers hydraulic oil to the hydraulic cylinder 34, causing the hydraulic cylinder 34 to lift, thereby raising the forklift 61 of the pallet truck. The solenoid valve 33 is controlled by the controller 4. When the solenoid valve 33 connects the hydraulic cylinder 34 and the oil tank 32, the hydraulic cylinder 34 lowers.

[0048] The left end of the drive motor 21 is directly connected to the gear pump assembly, while the right end of the drive motor 21 extends into the housing 41 of the controller 4, facilitating its connection to the control panel inside the controller 4.

[0049] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, the controller 4 includes a housing 41, a cover plate 42, and a control panel. The housing 41 is structured together with the intermediate base 11. The cover plate 42 is mounted on the housing 41 by screws. The control panel is located inside the housing 41. A motor hole is provided on the right side of the intermediate housing, and the hydraulic motor 31 extends into the housing 41 from the motor hole.

[0050] Specifically, as an optional implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 4As shown, a first through hole 51 is provided on the motor mounting plate 14. The solenoid valve 33 is installed on the left side seat 12, and the wire connecting the solenoid valve 33 and the controller 4 passes through the first through hole 51, which provides a lot of constraint on the wire.

[0051] Specifically, as an optional implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a second through hole 52 is provided on the rear side of the housing 41 of the controller 4. The second through hole 52 is located next to the wiring terminal of the drive motor 21, and the wires of the drive motor 21 wiring terminal can almost directly enter the controller 4, greatly reducing the exposed wires at this point.

[0052] Specifically, as an optional implementation method in this embodiment, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a third through hole 53 for threading the handle power cord is provided on the front side of the housing 41 of the controller 4. The third through hole 53 is close to the handle base, and the wires extending from the handle can be directly threaded into the controller 4 through the third through hole 53, which facilitates wiring here.

[0053] In this embodiment, the reduction gear 23 is prior art; for details, please refer to the prior art document CN221296055U - Powertrain and transport vehicle on a transport vehicle. The reduction gear 23 consists of multiple reduction gear sets.

[0054] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the motor mounting plate 14 and the left seat 12 are on the same plane, forming a stepped opening between the motor mounting plate 14 and the rear side of the middle seat 11. This stepped opening can be used to install the drive motor 21, optimizing the entire powertrain structure and shortening the distance between the drive motor 21 and the controller 4. In contrast, in the powertrain and transport vehicle of the prior patent CN221296055U, the controller 4 and drive motor 21 are distributed left and right on the seat 1. This structure inevitably requires the drive motor 21's wires to cross the entire powertrain to connect to the controller 4, resulting in more exposed wires and affecting the overall user experience. Furthermore, in the prior patent, the drive wheel 22 uses single-sided support, which is insufficient in strength. In this embodiment, the drive wheel 22 is mounted between the left seat 12 and the right seat 13 via an axle, with support at both ends of the axle, making the drive wheel 22 more stable.

[0055] Another embodiment of this application provides a transport vehicle. This will be described in detail below.

[0056] like Figure 5 As shown, a transport vehicle includes

[0057] A fork carriage 61, with a connecting wheel assembly 62 disposed below the fork carriage 61;

[0058] The powertrain adopts the aforementioned transport vehicle powertrain, wherein a bearing bridge 63 is provided on the cylinder block of the powertrain, and the bearing bridge 63 is hinged to the connecting rod wheel assembly 62 to realize power transmission and support.
