It should be noted that unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangements of components and steps, numerical expressions and numerical values ​​set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention.

[0026] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative in nature and is in no way intended to limit the present invention, its application, or uses.

[0027] Technologies, methods, and equipment known to ordinary technicians in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the technologies, methods, and equipment should be considered as part of the specification.

[0028] In all examples shown and discussed herein, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as merely exemplary and not limiting. Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values.

[0029] As an important part of forklifts, the need for charging, regular maintenance and replacement of batteries imposes strict requirements on the design of battery protection side panels. These side panels not only need to meet the requirements of reliability, stability and simple structure to ensure the safety and stability of the forklift during operation, but also need to be easy to open for daily maintenance and repair work. By adjusting the distance between the shock-absorbing pad and the battery side panel, the operator can finely control the size of the gap to achieve the best installation effect, ensuring that the battery side panel is not only fixed to the frame through the shock-absorbing pad, but also forms a secondary fixation with the frame through the latch pin and the frame fixing slot, thereby increasing the overall stability and safety.

[0030] The utility model proposes an embodiment of a forklift embedded battery side plate device, specifically, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a battery 2 is arranged in the middle of the frame 1 of the forklift, and a first battery side panel 3 and a second battery side panel 4 are arranged on opposite sides of the battery 2, respectively, and a handle 5 is arranged in the middle and upper parts of the first battery side panel 3 and the second battery side panel 4; the bottom of the first battery side panel 3 and the second battery side panel 4 are connected to the frame 1 by threads, and the upper parts of the first battery side panel 3 and the second battery side panel 4 are fixed with a locking pin 8, and the upper part of the frame 1 is provided with a frame fixing slot 9, and the upper parts of the first battery side panel 3 and the second battery side panel 4 are fixed to the upper part of the frame 1 by the locking pin 8 and the frame fixing slot 9. It should be noted that the first battery side panel 3 and the second battery side panel 4 are respectively installed on both sides of the battery for side protection of the battery; the handle 5 is arranged in the middle and upper parts of the first battery side panel 3 and the second battery side panel 4, so that the operator can easily carry or move the battery side panel and the battery when necessary. The bottom of the first battery side plate 3 and the second battery side plate 4 are fastened to the frame 1 by threaded connection. This connection is firm and reliable and can effectively prevent the side plates from loosening during the operation of the forklift. The latch pin 8 is a key component that cooperates with the frame fixing slot 9 to further fix the side plate to the frame and ensure the stability of the battery side plate in the vertical direction.

[0031] Specifically, the handle 5 is configured as a stamped notch, and the center of the stamped notch is a through hole. The shape of this stamped notch is convenient for the operator to insert the hand and apply force. The stamping process makes the edge of the notch smooth and not easy to scratch the hand, while maintaining the strength and stability of the structure. The through-hole structure can be used as an installation point for other accessories (such as lanyards, locks, etc.) when needed, and can also increase the friction between the handle and the operator's hand to a certain extent, improving the stability of the grip. On the other hand, the edge of the stamped notch has been processed to be smooth and without sharp angles, avoiding the risk of scratching the hand.

[0032] Specifically, the first battery side panel 3 and the second battery side panel 4 are C-shaped bent panels, and the upper and lower ends of the C-shaped bent panels are tightly fitted with the frame 1. The design of the C-shaped bent panels allows the side panels to have strong structural strength in the horizontal direction, and can withstand the weight of the battery and the lateral force generated during the travel of the forklift, which helps prevent the side panels from being deformed or damaged during long-term use. The upper and lower ends of the C-shaped bent panels are tightly fitted with the frame 1, which increases the contact area between the side panels and the frame, improves the connection stability between them, helps reduce the shaking of the battery side panels during the travel of the forklift, and ensures the stable installation of the battery. It also helps to improve the sealing between the battery side panels and the frame 1, preventing dust, moisture and other debris from entering the battery area and causing damage to the battery.

[0033] Specifically, two threaded holes are provided at the bottom of the first battery side plate 3 and the second battery side plate 4, and a screw and a nut 6 are provided corresponding to each threaded hole, and the vertical distance between the first battery side plate 3 and the second battery side plate 4 is adjusted by the screw and the nut 6. By rotating the nut 6, the position of the screw in the threaded hole can be changed, thereby adjusting the vertical distance between the first battery side plate 3 and the second battery side plate 4. This adjustment method is simple, fast and accurate.

[0034] Furthermore, a shock-absorbing pad 7 is provided at the lower end of the screw rod, and a frame countersunk hole 10 is provided at the bottom of the frame 1, and the shock-absorbing pad 7 can be accommodated in the frame countersunk hole 10. The shock-absorbing pad can protect the battery side plate, the frame 1 and the connecting parts therebetween from direct impact or wear. The coordinated use of the frame countersunk hole 10 and the shock-absorbing pad 7 can increase the connection area and friction between the battery side plate and the frame, thereby improving the strength and stability of the connection. The design of the frame countersunk hole 10 can also make the connection part between the battery side plate and the frame 1 more tidy and beautiful. The shock-absorbing pad 7 is hidden in the frame countersunk hole 10, reducing the entry and accumulation of external debris.

[0035] Specifically, the shock-absorbing pad 7 is configured as a fixed block made of rubber material. The rubber material has excellent elasticity and damping properties, and can effectively absorb and disperse the vibration and impact generated during the driving of the forklift, protecting the battery side plate, the frame 1 and other related components from damage.

[0036] Furthermore, the positioning pin 8 is configured as a stepped shaft structure with a large head at one end and a small head at the other end, and the small head end of the positioning pin 8 can fall into the frame fixing slot 9. The large head end of the positioning pin 8 usually has a larger diameter, which helps to provide a sufficient gripping area during the installation process, making it easier for the operator to insert or remove the positioning pin 8. The small head end of the positioning pin 8 has a smaller diameter and is designed to accurately fall into the frame fixing slot 9. This design ensures a tight fit between the positioning pin 8 and the frame fixing slot 9, improving the stability and reliability of the connection. Furthermore, the small head end of the positioning pin 8 matches the shape and size of the frame fixing slot 9, so that they can be precisely docked together. This precise docking ensures the stability of the battery side panel in the vertical direction and prevents the battery side panel from shaking or falling off during the driving of the forklift.

[0037] In the embodiment of the utility model, a preset safety distance is left between the battery 2 and the frame 1. If there is not enough safety distance between the battery 2 and the frame 1, the heat may be transferred to the frame 1, and even cause serious consequences such as fire or explosion. Therefore, the preset safety distance helps to ensure the effective dissipation of heat and prevent the occurrence of thermal runaway.

[0038] During the use of the forklift embedded battery side panel device of the utility model: when installing the first battery side panel 3 and the second battery side panel 4, the operator uses the handle 5 to drop the shock-absorbing pad 7 on the first battery side panel 3 and the second battery side panel 4 into the frame countersunk hole 10. At this time, if it is found that the gap between the frame 1 and the first battery side panel 3 or the second battery side panel 4 is too large or too small, the nut 6 on the shock-absorbing pad 7 can be loosened to adjust the appropriate distance between the shock-absorbing pad 7 and the first battery side panel 3 or the second battery side panel 4, and then the nut 6 can be tightened again. Observe whether the small end of the upper locking pin 8 of the first battery side panel 3 and the second battery side panel 4 falls correctly into the frame fixing slot 9 to ensure that the first battery side panel 3 and the second battery side panel 4 are fixed and do not move.

[0039] The utility model realizes multiple fixation of the battery side plate on the frame 1 through the bottom threaded connection and the upper locking pin 8 cooperating with the frame fixing slot 9, which greatly enhances the stability of the battery 2 and reduces the possibility of the battery 2 shaking during the driving or operation of the forklift. The design of the handle 5 enables the operator to easily move the battery side plate when the battery 2 needs to be replaced or maintained, thereby improving work efficiency. The protective function of the first battery side plate 3 and the second battery side plate 4 can effectively prevent the battery 2 from being directly impacted or damaged in an accident, and also reduces the safety hazards caused by the loosening or falling off of the battery 2, making the replacement and maintenance of the battery 2 simpler and faster, and reducing the maintenance cost and time.

[0040] The above describes in detail the structure, features and effects of the present invention based on the embodiments shown in the drawings, but the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that the technical features involved in the above embodiments and their preferred methods can be reasonably combined and matched into a variety of equivalent schemes by those skilled in the art without departing from or changing the design concept and technical effects of the present invention; therefore, the present invention is not limited to the scope of implementation as shown in the drawings, and all changes made in accordance with the concept of the present invention, or modifications to equivalent embodiments with equivalent changes, which still do not exceed the spirit covered by the specification and drawings, should be within the protection scope of the present invention.
