[0021] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0022] like Figure 1-2 As shown, a lifting platform vehicle comprises a frame assembly 1, a lifting assembly 2 and a monitoring assembly 3. The frame assembly 1 comprises a frame 11 and a driving platform 12 which can be lifted and lowered on the frame 11. The driving platform 12 is used for a driver to stand and operate. The lifting assembly 2 comprises a lifting chain 21 arranged on the frame 11 in a vertical direction. The lower end of the chain is connected to the frame 11, and the upper end of the chain is connected to the driving platform 12. The monitoring assembly 3 comprises a contact switch 31 and a contact block 32. The contact block 32 is fixed to the lower end of the lifting chain 21 and is used to limit the lower end of the lifting chain 21. The upper end of the lifting chain 21 is wound around the fixed pulley and connected to the driving platform 12. The gravity of the driving platform 12 can drive the lifting chain 21 to straighten. Once the lifting chain 21 is loose, the contact block 32 will move downward. When it drops to a preset height, the contact block 32 will abut against the contact switch 31, and then the contact switch 31 sends a signal to determine that the lifting chain 21 is loose, so that maintenance can be carried out in time to improve safety performance.

[0023] Of course, in this embodiment, the lifting assembly 2 also includes a lifting cylinder, the fixed pulley is fixed on the piston rod of the lifting cylinder, and the lifting cylinder is used to drive the fixed pulley to move up and down, and then drive the driving platform 12 to move up and down.

[0024] In order to provide an alarm to the driver, the monitoring component 3 also includes an alarm, which is electrically connected to the contact switch 31. After the contact switch 31 senses the signal, it transmits the signal to the alarm and issues an alarm through the alarm, so that the driver can receive information that the lifting chain 21 is loose.

[0025] In order to trigger the contact switch 31, a truncated cone-shaped abutment portion 321 is provided at the lower part of the contact block 32. The diameter of the upper part of the abutment portion 321 is larger than the diameter of the lower part of the abutment portion 321. When the contact block 32 drops to a preset height, the side of the abutment portion is in contact with the contact switch 31. Of course, the preset height can be designed according to actual needs. The inclined edge is used to abut the contact switch 31, which can ensure its connection with the contact switch 31 and avoid damage to the contact switch 31 caused by direct downward pressure of the contact block 32.

[0026] In order to achieve the positioning of the lower end of the lifting chain 21, a positioning plate 111 extending outward is provided on one side of the bottom of the frame 11, and the lower end of the lifting chain 21 is set as a connecting end 211, which can pass through the positioning plate 111 and be located below the positioning plate 111. The contact block 32 is located on the connecting end 211 and can abut against the bottom of the positioning plate 111. As mentioned above, under normal circumstances, due to the gravity of the driving platform 12, the lower end of the lifting chain 21 can be driven to move upward, which drives the contact block 32 to abut against the positioning plate 111 to limit the lower end of the lifting chain 21 from continuing to move upward.

[0027] Specifically, in order to facilitate the replacement of the contact block 32 and the adjustment of the position of the contact block 32, a threaded section is provided on the connecting end 211, and the contact block 32 is movably sleeved on the connecting end 211. A locking nut 212 is provided on the threaded section. The locking nut 212 can abut against the bottom of the contact block 32 and cooperate with the bottom of the positioning plate 111 to clamp the contact block 32. When the locking nut 212 is unscrewed, the contact block 32 can be removed, which is convenient for replacing the contact block 32 and also convenient for the installation and disassembly of the lifting chain 21. At the same time, the position of the contact block 32 can be adjusted by the locking nut 212.

[0028] In order to provide protection for the driver, the frame assembly 1 also includes a roof guard 13 located on the top of the frame 11. The roof guard 13 is located directly above the driving platform 12 to provide protection for the driver's head to prevent debris from falling and injuring the driver.
