Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of forklift control, and in particular to a forward-moving forklift lifting system that realizes buffering of a high-lifting gantry system. Background Art
[0002] In the fields of logistics warehousing and industrial production, reach truck operation is an important material handling tool, and its performance and safety directly affect work efficiency and operational safety. In high-lifting operations, due to the increase in cargo weight and lifting height, the gantry is prone to greater impact and vibration during the lifting and lowering process, which not only affects the stability of the cargo and the comfort of the operator, but may also cause damage and failure of the equipment. In addition, during the forward and retracting process of the forklift, if there is no effective buffering control, it is also prone to impact and instability. Therefore, it is of great significance to design a reach truck lifting system that realizes system buffering.
[0003] At present, most of the buffer systems for forklift gantry operations are equipped with buffer cylinders at both ends of lifting and retracting, and the impact energy is absorbed by the compression and release of the hydraulic oil in the cylinder. However, the buffering effect is not significant and does not meet the design concept of the high lifting gantry. If there is no stable buffer for the high lifting gantry, it will have a certain degree of impact on the stability and safety of the goods.

[0025] Disclosed in an embodiment of the present application is a reach-forklift lifting system that implements buffering of a high-lift gantry system, comprising: a controller 1, a telescopic buffer assembly, and a lifting buffer assembly.
[0026] Among them, the controller 1 is installed on the frame 2 of the forklift; the telescopic buffer assembly includes a telescopic signal receiving module and a telescopic signal transmitting module, the telescopic signal receiving module is installed on the pulley 3 of the forklift and is electrically connected to the controller 1, and the telescopic signal transmitting module is installed on the frame 2.

The controller 1 controls the pump motor of the forklift to reduce the opening of the throttle valve according to the signal transmitted by the telescopic signal receiving module or the lifting signal receiving module, thereby increasing the resistance of the hydraulic medium and achieving a buffering effect, or closes the throttle valve to stop the telescopic or lifting movement.
[0027] The telescopic buffer assembly is used to control the buffering action of the forward movement and retraction of the forklift mast, wherein the telescopic signal receiving module in the telescopic buffer assembly moves with the pulley 3, and the telescopic signal transmitting module in the telescopic buffer assembly is fixedly installed on the frame 2; when the pulley 3 moves to the position of the telescopic signal transmitting module, the telescopic signal receiving module first receives the buffering signal emitted by the telescopic signal transmitting module, and transmits the buffering signal to the controller 1, and the controller 1 sends an instruction to the pump motor according to the received buffering signal, and controls the pump motor to reduce the opening of the throttle valve in the hydraulic flow channel to increase the flow resistance of the hydraulic medium, thereby reducing the flow of the hydraulic medium to the hydraulic cylinder that controls the forward movement and retraction of the pulley 3, thereby slowing down the forward movement and retraction speed of the pulley 3, and achieving the buffering effect; after buffering for a period of time, the telescopic buffer signal module will receive the movement stop signal emitted by the telescopic signal transmitting module again, and transmit the movement stop signal to the controller 1, and the controller 1 sends an instruction to the pump motor according to the received movement stop signal, and controls the pump motor to close the throttle valve, so that the hydraulic cylinder that controls the forward movement and retraction of the pulley 3 stops working, thereby stopping the movement of the pulley 3.

[0029] The present application realizes system buffering of the lifting system of the forklift by setting up a telescopic buffer component and a lifting buffer component, and can slow down and buffer the forklift mast or side shifter 4 before it moves to the extreme position, so as to reduce the impact and vibration when it moves to the extreme position, thereby effectively protecting the safety of the goods, reducing the mechanical wear and hydraulic shock of the equipment, and extending the service life of the forklift.
[0030] In some embodiments, for example Figure 4 As shown, the telescopic signal receiving module includes a forward buffer wiring switch 111 and a retracting buffer wiring switch 112, and the forward buffer wiring switch 111 and the retracting buffer wiring switch 112 are respectively arranged on both sides of the pulley 3; the telescopic signal transmitting module includes a forward buffer induction source 121 and a retracting buffer induction source 122, and the forward buffer induction source 121 and the retracting buffer induction source 122 are respectively located on both sides of the frame 2; when the forward buffer wiring switch 111 receives the signal emitted by the forward buffer induction source 121 and transmits it to the controller 1, the controller 1 controls the pump motor to reduce the opening of the throttle valve; when the retracting buffer wiring switch 112 receives the signal emitted by the retracting buffer induction source 122 and transmits it to the controller 1, the controller 1 controls the pump motor to reduce the opening of the throttle valve.
[0031] The forward movement buffer wiring switch 111 is used to receive the signal emitted by the forward movement buffer induction source 121, and transmit the signal to the controller 1, so that the controller 1 can control the pump motor to reduce the throttle valve opening in the hydraulic channel, increase the flow resistance of the hydraulic medium, and thus achieve the forward movement buffer of the pulley 3. Similarly, the retraction buffer wiring switch 112 is used to receive the signal emitted by the retraction buffer induction source 122, and transmit the signal to the controller 1, so that the controller 1 can control the pump motor to reduce the throttle valve opening in the hydraulic channel, and thus achieve the retraction buffer of the pulley 3.
[0032] Furthermore, the telescopic signal receiving module also includes a forward stop wiring switch 113 and a retraction stop wiring switch 114, the forward stop wiring switch 113 is arranged on the rear side of the forward buffer wiring switch 111, and the retraction stop wiring switch 114 is arranged on the front side of the retraction buffer wiring switch 112; when the forward stop wiring switch 113 receives the signal emitted by the forward buffer induction source 121 and transmits it to the controller 1, the controller 1 controls the pump motor to close the throttle valve to stop the forward movement of the pulley 3; when the retraction stop wiring switch 114 receives the signal emitted by the retraction buffer induction source 122 and transmits it to the controller 1, the controller 1 controls the pump motor to close the throttle valve to stop the retraction movement of the pulley 3.
[0033] The forward movement stop wiring switch 113 is used to receive the signal emitted by the forward movement buffer induction source 121, and transmit the signal to the controller 1, so that the controller 1 can control the pump motor to close the throttle valve, thereby stopping the forward movement of the pulley 3. Similarly, the retraction stop wiring switch 114 is used to receive the signal emitted by the retraction buffer induction source 122, and transmit the signal to the controller 1, so that the controller 1 can control the pump motor to close the throttle valve, thereby stopping the retraction movement of the pulley 3.
[0034] In some embodiments, for example Figure 1 As shown, the telescopic buffer assembly also includes a buffer cylinder and a retraction buffer shock absorber 8. Two buffer cylinders are provided, and the two buffer cylinders are respectively arranged at the two ends of the forward movement and retraction of the pulley 3, and the retraction buffer shock absorber 8 is arranged at the rear end of the pulley 3.
[0035] The buffer cylinder can further buffer the pulley 3 when the pulley 3 moves forward or retracts to the extreme position, so that the pulley 3 can stop moving more smoothly, thereby further ensuring the safety of the goods on the forklift mast.
[0036] The retraction buffer shock absorber 8 can further enhance the retraction buffer of the pulley 3 and achieve a significant shock absorbing effect.
[0037] In some embodiments, for example Figure 2 As shown, the lifting signal receiving module includes a first induction wiring switch 211, and the first induction wiring switch 211 is arranged on one side of the side shifter 4; the lifting signal transmitting module includes a first rising buffer induction source 221 and a falling buffer induction source 222, and the first rising buffer induction source 221 and the falling buffer induction source 222 are both arranged on the same side of the inner door frame 5, the first rising buffer induction source 221 is located at the upper part of the inner door frame 5, and the falling buffer induction source 222 is located at the lower part of the inner door frame 5; when the first induction wiring switch 211 receives the signal emitted by the first rising buffer induction source 221 or the falling buffer induction source 222 and transmits it to the controller 1, the controller 1 controls the pump motor to reduce the opening of the throttle valve.
[0038] The first induction wiring switch 211 is used to receive the signal emitted by the first rising buffer induction source 221 or the descending buffer induction source 222, and transmit the signal to the controller 1, so that the controller 1 can control the pump motor to reduce the throttle valve opening in the hydraulic channel, thereby achieving buffering of the side shifter 4 during the lifting or descending process.
[0039] Furthermore, the lifting signal receiving module further includes a second induction wiring switch 212 and a descending stop wiring switch 215, both of which are arranged on the other side of the side shifter 4 opposite to the first induction wiring switch 211, and the descending stop wiring switch 215 is arranged below the second induction wiring switch 212; the lifting signal transmitting module further includes a first rising stop induction source 223 and a descending stop induction source 224, and the first rising stop induction source 223 is arranged opposite to the first rising buffer induction source 221. On the other side of the inner door frame 5, the descent stop induction source 224 is set on the other side of the inner door frame 5 opposite to the descent buffer induction source 222; when the second induction wiring switch 212 receives the signal emitted by the first ascent stop induction source 223 and transmits it to the controller 1, the controller 1 controls the pump motor to close the throttle valve to stop the ascent movement of the side shifter 4; when the descent stop wiring switch 215 receives the signal emitted by the descent stop induction source 224 and transmits it to the controller 1, the controller 1 controls the pump motor to close the throttle valve to stop the descending movement of the side shifter 4.
[0040] The second induction wiring switch 212 and the descent stop wiring switch 215 are respectively used to receive the signals emitted by the first rise stop induction source 223 or the descent stop induction source 224, and transmit the signals to the controller 1, so that the controller 1 can control the pump motor to close the throttle valve, thereby realizing the stop of the lifting or descending movement of the side shifter 4.
[0041] Furthermore, the lifting signal transmitting module also includes an anti-smashing sensing source 225, which is arranged on the same side of the inner door frame 5 as the first rising stop sensing source 223 and the descending stop sensing source 224, and the anti-smashing sensing source 225 is arranged close to the descending stop sensing source 224; when the forklift door frame is not raised as a whole and the side shifter 4 is descending, the second induction wiring switch 212 can normally receive the signal emitted by the anti-smashing sensing source 225 and transmit it to the controller 1, and the controller 1 controls the pump motor to close the throttle valve to stop the descending movement of the side shifter 4; when the forklift door frame is raised as a whole and the side shifter 4 is descending, the second induction wiring switch 212 will not receive the signal emitted by the anti-smashing sensing source 225, and the side shifter 4 continues to descend.
[0042] The setting of the anti-smash sensing source 225 can prevent the cargo on the side shifter 4 from colliding with the front axle of the forklift frame 2, causing damage to the cargo; among them, only when the forklift mast is not raised as a whole and the side shifter 4 is performing lifting and lowering movements alone, the signal emitted by the anti-smash sensing source 225 will be received by the second induction wiring switch 212. If the forklift mast is raised as a whole, the side shifter 4 is far away from the front axle of the forklift frame 2, even if the side shifter 4 drops to the bottom of the forklift inner mast 5, it will not collide with the front axle of the forklift frame 2, thereby not affecting the safety of the cargo.
[0043] In some embodiments, the length of the signal emission area of the first rising buffer induction source 221 is longer than the length of the signal emission area of the first rising stop induction source 223, and the length of the signal emission area of the falling buffer induction source 222 is longer than the length of the signal emission area of the falling stop induction source 224. On the same height plane, a part of the signal emission area of the first rising stop induction source 223 is located above the first rising buffer induction source 221, and the other part overlaps with the signal emission area of the first rising buffer induction source 221, and the signal emission area of the falling stop induction source 224 is located below the falling buffer induction source 222.
[0044] The first rising buffer induction source 221 and the descending buffer induction source 222 with longer signal transmission area can enable the side shifter 4 to receive buffering for a sufficiently long time, thereby avoiding the buffering time being too short, resulting in insufficient buffering and causing the goods on the side shifter 4 to be subjected to a greater impact and damage the goods; the setting position of the first rising stop induction source 223 and the descending stop induction source 224 can ensure that the side shifter 4 quickly connects to the movement stop after receiving sufficient buffering, so that the entire buffering process is smoothly connected without pause, and the buffering effect is good.
[0045] In some embodiments, for example Figure 3 As shown, the lifting signal receiving module also includes an upper buffer induction wiring switch 213, which is arranged at the upper end of one side of the outer door frame 7; the lifting signal transmitting module also includes a second lifting buffer induction source 226, which is arranged at the lower part of one side of the middle door frame 6; when the upper buffer induction wiring switch 213 receives the signal emitted by the second lifting buffer induction source 226 and transmits it to the controller 1, the controller 1 controls the pump motor to reduce the opening of the throttle valve.
[0046] The setting of the upper end buffer induction wiring switch 213 and the rising buffer induction source can buffer the middle mast 6 that is rising or falling, thereby reducing the vibration generated by the forklift middle mast 6 when it moves to the extreme position, thereby ensuring the stability of the goods during the lifting process and preventing the goods from being damaged; the upper end buffer induction wiring switch 213 is used to receive the signal emitted by the rising buffer induction source and transmit the signal to the controller 1, so that the controller 1 can control the pump motor to reduce the throttle valve opening in the hydraulic flow channel, thereby achieving buffering of the forklift middle mast 6 during the lifting process.
[0047] Furthermore, the lifting signal receiving module also includes an upper stop sensing wiring switch 214, which is arranged at the upper end of the other side of the outer door frame 7 opposite to the upper end buffer sensing wiring switch 213; the lifting signal transmitting module also includes a second rising stop sensing source 227, which is arranged at the lower part of the other side of the middle door frame 6 opposite to the second rising buffer sensing source 226; when the upper end stop sensing wiring switch 214 receives the signal emitted by the second rising stop sensing source 227 and transmits it to the controller 1, the controller 1 controls the pump motor to close the throttle valve to stop the rising movement of the middle door frame 6.
[0048] The setting of the upper stop sensing wiring switch 214 and the second rising stop sensing source 227 can stop the movement of the forklift's middle mast 6 that has been subjected to the buffering effect; the upper stop sensing wiring switch 214 is used to receive the signal emitted by the second rising stop sensing source 227, and transmit the signal to the controller 1, so that the controller 1 can control the pump motor to close the throttle valve, thereby stopping the movement of the forklift's middle mast 6.
[0049] In some embodiments, for example Figure 1 As shown, the lifting buffer assembly also includes a descent buffer shock absorber 9 and a descent buffer plate 10. The descent buffer shock absorber 9 is arranged at the top of the outer mast 7, and the descent buffer plate 10 is arranged at the top of the middle mast 6. When the middle mast 6 descends to the limit, the descent buffer plate 10 cooperates with the descent buffer shock absorber 9 to achieve buffering of the middle mast 6.
