Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0029] The following reference Figures 1 to 6 This application describes a forklift travel brake control linkage mechanism and a forklift according to some embodiments thereof.
[0030] See Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an embodiment of this application provides a forklift driving brake control linkage mechanism, including: a base assembly 1, a brake master cylinder 2, a brake rocker arm assembly 3, a brake pedal assembly 4, and a brake pedal angle sensor 7; wherein, the brake master cylinder 2 is connected to the brake rocker arm assembly 3; the brake rocker arm assembly 3 and the brake pedal assembly 4 are respectively rotatably connected to the base assembly 1, and the brake pedal assembly 4 can rotate relative to the base assembly 1 to contact the brake rocker arm assembly 3, and can push the brake rocker arm assembly 3 to rotate synchronously relative to the base assembly 1 to drive the brake master cylinder 2 to operate; the brake pedal angle sensor 7 is fixed to the base assembly 1, and the brake pedal angle sensor 7 is used to detect the rotation angle of the brake pedal assembly 4.
[0031] Based on the structure described above, the working process of the forklift driving brake control linkage mechanism provided in this application is as follows: When the brake pedal 42 of the brake pedal assembly 4 is pressed, the brake pedal assembly 4 rotates. At this time, the brake pedal assembly 4 is not in contact with the brake rocker arm assembly 3, and the brake master cylinder 2 does not move. The brake light switch adjustment component 5 described below is disengaged from the brake light switch 6 under the drive of the brake pedal assembly 4, and the brake light indicates braking. The brake pedal angle sensor 7 outputs an angle signal to the controller to realize power cut-off and motor braking. The controller can control the magnitude of the motor braking torque according to the detected angle data, that is, to realize vehicle micro-movement. When the brake pedal 42 is pressed again, the brake pedal assembly 4 contacts the brake rocker arm assembly 3. The brake rocker arm assembly 3 drives the brake master cylinder 2 to move, realizing hydraulic braking.
[0032] As can be seen, this application provides a novel forklift driving brake control linkage mechanism that can achieve segmented braking. When the brake pedal 42 is pressed, the power is first cut off and the motor brakes. During this segment, the braking torque of the motor can be controlled by the signal provided by the controller to achieve micro-movement of the vehicle. When the brake pedal 42 is pressed again, hydraulic braking is achieved. In other words, in this solution, the angle signal of the pedal 42 can be output in real time. When the brake master cylinder 2 is not activated, the power and motor braking can be cut off to achieve the micro-movement function of the vehicle, thereby realizing the micro-movement controllability and operational safety of the forklift.
[0033] Furthermore, preferably, the forklift travel brake control linkage mechanism also includes the aforementioned controller, and the controller is communicatively connected to the brake light switch 6 and the brake pedal angle sensor 7 respectively. In addition, the controller is also communicatively connected to the motor in the forklift, and can control the magnitude of the motor braking torque through the signal provided by the controller.
[0034] It should be noted that the forklift's driving brake control linkage mechanism may not include a controller. Instead, the brake pedal angle sensor 7, brake light switch 6, etc., can be connected to the forklift's own main controller. The specific choice depends on the actual needs.
[0035] In one embodiment of this application, preferably, as shown below, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the brake pedal angle sensor 7 includes a fixed part and a rotating part; wherein, the fixed part is fixed to the base assembly 1, and the rotating part is rotatably connected to the fixed part, the rotating part is fixedly connected to the brake pedal assembly 4, and the brake pedal assembly 4 can synchronously drive the rotating part to rotate relative to the fixed part.
[0036] As can be seen from the structure described above, when the pedal 42 of the brake pedal assembly 4 is pressed, the entire pedal 42 assembly rotates relative to the base assembly 1, which in turn drives the rotating part of the brake pedal angle sensor 7 to rotate relative to its fixed part. The rotation angle of the pedal 42 can be detected in real time by the brake pedal angle sensor 7, and the magnitude of the motor braking torque can be controlled by the signal provided by the controller to achieve micro-movement of the vehicle.
[0037] It should be noted that the structure of the brake pedal angle sensor 7 is not limited to the above. A non-contact angle sensor can also be used, that is, there is no need to connect the brake pedal angle sensor 7 to the pedal 42 assembly, etc. The specific choice depends on the actual needs.
[0038] In one embodiment of this application, preferably, as shown below, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the brake rocker arm assembly 3 includes a first mounting shaft 31, a first adapter 32, a mating part 33, a mounting base 34, a pin 35, and a mating part 33; wherein, the first mounting shaft 31 is rotatably connected to the base assembly 1; The first adapter 32 and the mating part 33 are both fixed to the outer wall of the first mounting shaft 31, and the mating part 33 is connected to the first adapter 32. The pedal 42 assembly can rotate relative to the mating part 33 so that the pedal 42 assembly can contact or separate from the mating part 33. The moving part 22 of the brake master cylinder 2 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 34, and the mounting base 34 and the first adapter 32 are rotatably connected by a pin 35. As can be seen from the structure described above, the first mounting shaft 31 is used to achieve a rotational engagement with the bushing 103 of the base assembly 1 described below, thereby realizing the rotational connection between the brake rocker arm assembly 3 and the base assembly 1; the mating part 33 plays the role of engaging with the bearing 44. That is to say, when the brake pedal 42 is pressed, the bearing 44 can contact the mating part 33, and as the pedal is pressed further, the bearing 44 pushes the mating part 33 to rotate, thereby causing the connecting part to drive the mounting base 34 to rotate, thereby forcing the moving part 22 of the brake master cylinder 2 to move and perform the braking action.
[0039] In one embodiment of this application, preferably, as shown below, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the pedal 42 assembly includes a second mounting shaft 41, a pedal 42, a support shaft 43, and a bearing 44; wherein, along the axial direction of the first mounting shaft 31, the second mounting shaft 41 is disposed on the side of the first mounting shaft 31 and is rotatably connected to both the first mounting shaft 31 and the base assembly 1, and the second mounting shaft 41 is rotatable relative to the first mounting shaft 31 and the base assembly 1.

As can be seen from the structure described above, the second mounting shaft 41 is rotatably connected to the first mounting shaft 31 and the base assembly 1. The first mounting shaft 31 and the base assembly 1 support the second mounting shaft 41, making the second mounting shaft 41 more stable. The support part supports the shaft 43, and the bearing 44 cooperates with the mating part 33.

[0042] It should be noted that: one of the first mounting shaft 31 and the second mounting shaft 41 may be provided with a shaft hole, and the other may be provided with a mating shaft part, which is rotatably inserted into the shaft hole. Of course, it is not limited to this. The two can also be rotatably connected by a bushing 103, etc., so that the first mounting shaft 31 and the second mounting shaft 41 can rotate freely on their own without causing the other to rotate.
[0043] In one embodiment of this application, preferably, as shown below, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the base assembly 1 includes a base plate 101, multiple support plates 102, and multiple bushings 103; wherein, the support plates 102 are fixed on the base plate 101, and the support plates 102 form mounting grooves, and the bushings 103 are fixed in the mounting grooves; a first mounting shaft 31 is rotatably connected to at least one bushing 103 in one of the mounting grooves, and a second mounting shaft 41 is rotatably connected to at least another bushing 103 in one of the mounting grooves; the fixing part of the brake pedal angle sensor 7 is fixed to the base plate 101. As can be seen from the structure described above, multiple support plates 102 support the corresponding bushings 103 and the aforementioned first mounting shaft 31 and second mounting shaft 41, thereby supporting the pedal 42 assembly and the rocker arm assembly.
[0044] Furthermore, preferably, both the base plate 101 and the support plate 102 are arranged in a vertical direction and are perpendicular to each other to meet the usage requirements. Of course, this is not the only option.

One end of the torsion spring 13 abuts against the base plate 101, and the other end of the torsion spring 13 abuts against the auxiliary limiting groove 421 of the pedal 42. As can be seen from the structure described above, the torsion spring 13 can be used to reset the pedal assembly 42.
[0046] Furthermore, preferably, the auxiliary limiting groove 421 is formed on the side of the pedal 42 near the base plate 101, and the auxiliary limiting groove 421 is L-shaped. Of course, it is not limited to this.

At this time, the brake pedal assembly 4 is not in contact with the brake rocker arm assembly 3, and the brake master cylinder 2 does not operate. The brake light switch adjustment component 5, as described below, disengages from the brake light switch 6 under the action of the brake pedal assembly 4, and the brake light indicates braking. The brake pedal angle sensor 7 outputs an angle signal to the controller to realize power cut-off and motor braking. The controller can control the magnitude of the motor braking torque based on the detected angle data, that is, to achieve micro-movement of the vehicle. When the brake pedal 42 is pressed again, the brake pedal assembly 4 contacts the brake rocker arm assembly 3, and the brake rocker arm assembly 3 drives the brake master cylinder 2 to operate, realizing hydraulic braking.
[0049] Furthermore, by providing the first adapter 8, the brake light switch adjustment component 5 at a specific position can be connected to the brake pedal assembly 4, thereby allowing the brake light switch adjustment component 5 to rotate as the brake pedal assembly 4 rotates, thus causing it to contact or separate from the brake light switch 6.
