Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of straddle carriers, in particular to a straddle carrier with adjustable lifting points. Background Art
[0002] Container straddle carriers are the main type of container loading and unloading equipment, usually responsible for horizontal transportation from the front of the wharf to the yard and container stacking at the yard. At present, container transporters are responsible for lifting, transporting and transferring containers to the destination for unloading. This requires that the transporter can quickly and accurately align its lifting device with the container when lifting the container, and prevent the container from shaking during the transportation and transfer process. The existing technology has the following defects: the transporter has a rigid structure. When encountering obstacles such as potholes or gravel during driving, it is easy to bump and cause the container to shake, posing a transportation safety hazard.
[0003] In the published Chinese patent application, publication number: CN220703037U, patent name: container handling vehicle, this prior art is to fix one end of the first bracket along the first direction to the third bracket, and hinge the other end along the first direction to the second bracket. When the driving mechanism of the second bracket encounters obstacles such as potholes or gravel during driving, the second bracket itself can swing around the hinge point to reduce the shaking of the first bracket, thereby reducing the shaking of the container and ensuring the smooth transportation of the container; when the driving mechanism of the third bracket encounters obstacles such as potholes or gravel during driving, the third bracket and the second bracket can swing around the hinge point as a whole to reduce the shaking of the first bracket, thereby reducing the shaking of the container. The container handling vehicle has a simple structure and stable transportation, and effectively ensures the transportation and installation of the container.
[0004] Although the prior art can solve the above problems, it has certain limitations in its specific implementation. In the specific implementation process, the transport vehicle frame rides on the container, and the support legs on the two length sides of the transport vehicle are at a certain distance from the two side walls of the container, and these two distances are inconsistent, that is, the transport vehicle is not directly above the container. In this case, when the transport vehicle lifts the container, the lifting rope of the transport vehicle cannot lift the container vertically. Due to the inclination of the lifting rope, after the container is lifted off the ground, the container shakes to a certain extent, resulting in the risk of the transport vehicle tipping over and the support legs being damaged by the collision with the container.
[0005] In summary, in order to solve the problems existing in the prior art, this case is proposed to solve them. Utility Model Content

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific circumstances. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, not all embodiments.
[0030] See also Figures 1 to 5 The utility model provides a technical solution: a straddle carrier with adjustable lifting points, which is used for container transportation, and includes a frame 1, on which two parallel auxiliary beams 3 are fixedly mounted, and an adjusting cylinder 4 is mounted on the outer side wall of each auxiliary beam 3, and the adjusting cylinder 4 is slidably connected to the auxiliary beam 3.
[0031] The lateral position of the adjusting cylinder 4 can be adjusted by sliding the adjusting cylinder 4 on the auxiliary beam 3 , that is, the position of the adjusting cylinder 4 relative to the vehicle frame 1 can be adjusted.
[0032] The inner lower space of the frame 1 constitutes the container lifting position, and the four corners of the container are all lifting parts. A lifting device is arranged on the frame 1, and the lifting device includes two lifting mechanisms, which are respectively arranged at the ends where the width of the upper part of the frame 1 is located, and the lifting mechanisms lift the two lifting parts at the ends where the width of the container is located.
[0033] The lifting device is used to lift the container on the frame 1. The two lifting mechanisms are used to synchronously hang the two ends of the container. The four corners of the container are all lifting parts, wherein the four corners refer to the corners of the container at the four directions.
[0034] The lifting mechanism includes a driving component 6 and two flexible steel members. The driving component 6 is transversely arranged on the frame 1. The middle parts of the two flexible steel members are wound around the outer wall of the adjustment cylinder 4.
