Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of AGV tractors, in particular to an AGV tractor. Background Art

[0002] In the field of automated logistics and intelligent manufacturing, automated guided vehicles play a vital role. They undertake tasks such as material handling and assembly line supply in warehouses, factories and various automated production lines, significantly improving operational efficiency and production flexibility. With the continuous improvement of the level of intelligence, the design and application of AGVs are constantly expanding. Among them, tractors, as a key transportation carrier, have a direct impact on the stability and efficiency of the entire logistics system.

[0003] However, in actual applications, the design of AGV tractor traction components often faces a common challenge: that is, during the traction process, due to the limitations of the structural design, the traction components cannot achieve precise lateral or longitudinal fine-tuning, which leads to easy offset when subjected to force. The root causes of this problem are diverse, and may involve factors such as insufficient rigidity of the traction device, inaccurate design of the guide mechanism, or lag in feedback adjustment of the control system. The consequences not only affect the traction efficiency, but may also lead to improper handling of materials during the traction process, increase equipment wear, and even cause safety accidents in extreme cases.

[0004] Specifically, when the AGV tractor is dragging heavy materials or driving on uneven ground, if the fixed traction point cannot flexibly adapt to the load changes, it will directly transmit asymmetric force to the traction object, causing yaw or tilt, thereby increasing driving resistance and reducing running stability. In addition, the fixed traction structure may also limit the operational flexibility of the AGV in a small space and reduce its adaptability in complex path planning.
