DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The utility model is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0020] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the utility model provides a clamping shuttle vehicle, including a frame 1. The frame 1 is the main structure of the entire shuttle vehicle and is used to support and install other components. Specifically, the frame 1 is made of square tubes of the same specification but different lengths. The material of the square tube must meet the strength and rigidity requirements of use.

[0021] A running mechanism 2 is installed at the bottom of the frame 1. The running mechanism 2 of the shuttle is a crucial part of the shuttle system, which is responsible for supporting and driving the shuttle to move on the track.

[0022] Specifically, the traveling mechanism 2 includes traveling wheels 21 installed at the four corners of the bottom of the frame 1 and a motor 22 installed on the left and right traveling wheels 21 at either the front or rear end. The traveling wheels 21 are the parts that directly contact the track and are made of wear-resistant and high-strength materials, such as polyurethane or rubber. The motor 22 is the power source of the traveling mechanism 2. Specifically, the motor 22 is installed on the left and right traveling wheels 21 at the front end, and can drive the shuttle vehicle to move straight or turn by controlling the speed.

[0023] In addition, the running mechanism 2 also includes a wheel axle and a guide mechanism. The wheel axle is a component connecting the running wheel 21 and the drive motor 22, and it needs to bear the weight of the shuttle and the force generated during the running. Preferably, the wheel axle is made of high-strength steel to ensure its stability and durability. The guide mechanism is used to ensure the stability of the running wheel 21 on the track and prevent it from deviating from the track. The guide mechanism consists of a guide wheel and a guide groove, and the guide wheel rolls in the guide groove to keep the shuttle in the correct position on the track.

[0024] Two lifting mechanisms 3 are symmetrically installed in the frame 1. The lifting mechanisms 3 at each end include a first hydraulic cylinder 31, a first support assembly 32 and a lifting platform 33. The first hydraulic cylinder 31 is vertically fixedly installed on the frame 1 to provide power for lifting materials. The integrated oil tank 5 is filled with hydraulic oil, which is the working medium of the first hydraulic cylinder 31. First support assemblies 32 are fixedly installed at both ends of the first hydraulic cylinder 31 for supporting and guiding the lifting and lowering of the lifting platform 33. The first support assembly 32 includes a guide rail and a slider. The guide rail is vertically fixedly installed on the frame 1, and the slider is slidably installed on the guide rail. The output end of the first hydraulic cylinder 31 and the movable end of the first support assembly 32 are fixedly connected to the lifting platform 33. Three left, middle and right connecting parts are evenly spaced in the length direction of the lifting platform 33. The middle connecting part is connected to the output end of the first hydraulic cylinder 31, and the left and right connecting parts are respectively connected to the sliders, which can ensure the stability of the lifting and lowering of the lifting platform 33. When the first hydraulic cylinder 31 is working, the lifting platform 33 is driven to move up and down on the guide rail through telescopic movement, thereby achieving height adjustment of the clamping mechanism 4.

[0025] The lifting platform 33 is a frame structure, in the middle of which is provided a bottom plate for installing the clamping mechanism 4. The frame structure can reduce the weight of the lifting platform 33 to the maximum extent, and reduce the load of the first hydraulic cylinder 31. Preferably, the lifting platform 33 is assembled using a light aluminum alloy material, which can ensure sufficient strength and rigidity of the lifting platform 33.

[0026] Each jacking mechanism 3 is equipped with a clamping mechanism 4, which is used to clamp and carry materials. The clamping mechanism 4 includes a second hydraulic cylinder 41, a second support assembly 42 and a clamping plate 43. The second hydraulic cylinder 41 is fixedly installed horizontally on the jacking platform 33 of the jacking mechanism 3 to provide power for the clamping plate 43 to clamp the material. The second support assemblies 42 are fixedly installed at both ends of the second hydraulic cylinder 41 to support and guide the opening and closing of the clamping plate 43. The second support assembly 42 has the same components as the first support assembly 32, both of which include guide rails and sliders. The difference lies in the different specifications of the components. The output end of the second hydraulic cylinder 41 and the movable end of the second support assembly 42 are fixedly connected to the clamping plate 43. When the second hydraulic cylinder 41 is working, the clamping plate 43 is driven to open and close through telescopic movement to achieve clamping and release of the material.

[0027] The clamping plate 43 is a key component of the clamping mechanism 4, and is provided with a lifting part 431 for lifting the material and a clamping part 432 for clamping the material. The lifting part 431 can lift the material to a certain height when clamping the material, so as to facilitate the handling and stacking of the material. The clamping part 432 can firmly clamp the material to ensure the stability of the material during the handling process. In addition, a positioning part 433 is also provided on the clamping plate 43, which is used to position the material before clamping the material to ensure the accuracy and stability of the clamping. The positioning part 433 is specifically a truncated cone-shaped column fixedly installed at the front end of the clamping part 432, and the corresponding matching holes are arranged on the material, so that accurate positioning can be achieved, which is simple and convenient. When the material is transported, the shuttle car first positions it, then clamps it, and finally lifts it to a certain height for transportation.

[0028] An integrated oil tank 5 and a power supply 6 are also installed on the top of the frame 1. The integrated oil tank 5 provides hydraulic oil for the shuttle car to ensure the normal operation of the hydraulic cylinder. The power supply 6 provides electrical energy for the motor 22 and other electrical equipment of the shuttle car to ensure the normal operation of the shuttle car.

[0029] The clamping shuttle provided in this embodiment has a simple structure, convenient operation, and a high degree of automation. The clamping mechanism 4 is driven by the first hydraulic cylinder 31 and the second hydraulic cylinder 41 to lift and open and close the clamping mechanism 4, so as to clamp and carry the material quickly and accurately. At the same time, the shuttle can be moved flexibly to meet different handling requirements through the setting of the walking mechanism 2. In addition, the lifting part 431, the clamping part 432, and the positioning part 433 provided on the clamping plate 43 further improve the stability and accuracy of the clamping, and ensure the safety of the material during the handling process.

[0030] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions under the concept of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, some improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the present invention should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
