[0028] Embodiment:

[0029] Please refer to Figures 1-4A new type of truck restraint comprises a fixed seat 1, a lifting frame 2 is slidably connected inside the fixed seat 1, a tension spring assembly 3 is arranged between the lifting frame 2 and the fixed seat 1, a swing arm rod 4 is rotatably connected to the lifting frame 2, a limit hook 5 and a driven gear plate 6 are fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the swing arm rod 4, and the limit hook 5 is located in the lifting frame 2, a driving motor 7 is fixedly connected to the lifting frame 2, and a gear plate torque limiter 8 is fixedly connected to the output end of the driving motor 7, a transmission chain 9 is transmission-connected between the gear plate torque limiter 8 and the driven gear plate 6, and a sensing mechanism 10 is arranged between the lifting frame 2 and the swing arm rod 4, and the sensing mechanism 10 is used to control the rotation angle of the swing arm rod 4.

[0030] In this embodiment, the rotation time of the limit hook 5 can be set by the sensing mechanism 10, so that the limit hook 5 stops after reaching a suitable rotation angle. The fixing seat 1 is installed on the loading and unloading platform. When the rear end of the truck is close to the loading and unloading platform and the height of the rear end from the ground is low, the rear end of the truck first contacts the lifting frame 2, and the lifting frame 2 is pressed down by the rear end of the truck. The tension spring assembly 3 pulls the lifting frame 2 so that the lifting frame 2 always corresponds to the rear end of the truck. Then, the driving motor 7 controls the gear disk torque limiter 8 to rotate, and the gear disk torque limiter 8 rotates the driven gear disk 6 through the transmission chain 9, and the driven gear disk 6 drives the swing arm rod 4 to rotate, so that The limit hook 5 is rotated to contact the rear end of the truck. The limit hook 5 is resisted by the rear end of the truck. The geared disc torque limiter 8 limits the limit hook 5 from continuing to rotate in the form of slipping, thereby protecting the limit hook 5 from overload and preventing the drive motor 7 and the limit hook 5 from being damaged. After the limit hook 5 rotates to the set rotation time, the sensing mechanism 10 controls the limit hook 5 to stop, thereby hooking the anti-collision tail rod at the rear end of the truck for restriction. When the height of the rear end of the truck is located on the upper side of the lifting frame 2, the drive motor 7 is directly started to rotate the limit hook 5. The limit hook 5 rotates to a certain angle to hook the anti-collision tail rod at the rear end of the truck for restriction.

[0031] Specifically, the sensing mechanism 10 includes a sensor assembly 101, a fixing sleeve 102, an annular groove 103, a sensing block 104 and a positioning bolt 105. The sensor assembly 101 is fixedly connected to the lifting frame 2, the fixing sleeve 102 is fixedly connected to the circumferential surface of the swing arm rod 4 and corresponds to the sensor assembly 101, the annular groove 103 is excavated on the fixing sleeve 102, the sensing block 104 is slidably connected in the annular groove 103, the positioning bolt 105 is threadedly connected to the sensing block 104, and one end of the positioning bolt 105 corresponds to the annular groove 103.

[0032] In this embodiment, during the process of the swing arm rod 4 driving the limit hook 5 to rotate, the fixed sleeve 102 will be driven to rotate. The fixed sleeve 102 drives the induction block 104 to rotate. When the induction block 104 rotates to correspond to the inductor assembly 101, the limit hook 5 reaches the set rotation time, and the drive motor 7 stops running. Among them, the induction block 104 can adjust its position on the fixed sleeve 102 through the annular groove 103. After the adjustment of the induction block 104 is completed, it is fixed by contacting the inner wall of the annular groove 103 through the rotation positioning bolt 105, thereby changing the detection time of the inductor assembly 101 and adjusting the rotation angle of the limit hook 5.

[0033] Specifically, one end of the positioning bolt 105 is rotatably connected with a friction block 11, and the friction block 11 corresponds to the annular groove 103.

[0034] In this embodiment, when the positioning bolt 105 rotates, it drives the friction block 11 to move. By contacting the inner wall of the annular groove 103 through the friction block 11, the friction force can be increased, further improving the stability of the induction block 104.

[0035] Specifically, a bearing sleeve 12 is fixedly connected to the lifting frame 2, and the swing arm rod 4 is rotatably connected within the bearing sleeve 12.

[0036] In this embodiment, the bearing sleeve 12 reduces the friction force when the swing arm rod 4 rotates, making the rotation of the swing arm rod 4 on the lifting frame 2 more convenient.

[0037] Specifically, a support plate 13 is fixedly connected to the lifting frame 2, and the swing arm rod 4 is rotatably connected within the support plate 13.

[0038] In this embodiment, the support plate 13 is used to support the swing arm rod 4, enabling the swing arm rod 4 to further maintain the stability of rotation.

[0039] Specifically, a pulley 14 is rotatably connected to the lifting frame 2, and the pulley 14 is slidably connected within the fixed seat 1.

[0040] In this embodiment, the lifting frame 2 slides within the fixed seat 1 through the pulley 14, and the pulley 14 makes the sliding of the lifting frame 2 smoother.

[0041] Specifically, one end of the lifting frame 2 away from the fixed seat 1 is movably hinged with a grounding guide rod 15 through a hinge shaft, and the grounding guide rod 15 is located on one side of the limit hook 5.

[0042] In this embodiment, when the rear of the vehicle presses down the lifting frame 2, the grounding guide rod 15 bends and contacts the ground. The grounding guide rod 15 is common knowledge for those skilled in the art, and will not be elaborated too much in this utility model.

[0043] Working principle: The fixed seat 1 is installed on the loading and unloading platform. The sensing block 104 adjusts its position on the fixed sleeve 102 through the annular groove 103. After the adjustment of the sensing block 104 is completed, it is fixed by contacting the inner wall of the annular groove 103 by rotating the positioning bolt 105, thereby changing the detection time of the sensor assembly 101. When the height of the rear of the truck from the ground is relatively low near the rear of the loading and unloading platform, the rear of the truck first contacts the lifting frame 2. The lifting frame 2 is pressed down by the rear of the truck, and the tension spring assembly 3 pulls the lifting frame 2 to make the lifting frame 2 always correspond to the rear of the truck. Then, the driving motor 7 controls the rotation of the gear disc torque limiter 8. The gear disc torque limiter 8 drives the driven gear disc 6 to rotate through the transmission chain 9. The driven gear disc 6 drives the swing arm rod 4 to rotate, thereby causing the limit hook 5 to rotate and contact the rear of the truck. The limit hook 5 is resisted by the rear of the truck, and the gear disc torque limiter 8 limits the continuous rotation of the limit hook 5 in the form of slipping to protect the limit hook 5 from overload. During the process of driving the limit hook 5 to rotate, the swing arm rod 4 will drive the fixed sleeve 102 to rotate. The fixed sleeve 102 drives the sensing block 104 to rotate. When the sensing block 104 rotates to correspond to the sensor assembly 101, the limit hook 5 reaches the set rotation time, and the driving motor 7 stops rotating. The limit hook 5 hooks and restricts the anti-collision tail rod of the rear of the truck. When the height of the rear of the truck is above the lifting frame 2, the driving motor 7 is directly started to make the limit hook 5 rotate. The limit hook 5 rotates to a certain angle to hook and restrict the anti-collision tail rod of the rear of the truck.

[0044] The above is only the preferred specific implementation mode of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, according to the technical solution of the present invention and its improved concept, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
