[0021] Embodiment 1

[0022] Please refer to Figure 1, A gantry limiting device of the present utility model includes a fixed gantry 1 and a limiting device 3 arranged at the upper end of the fixed gantry 1. A sliding gantry 2 is arranged on the fixed gantry 1 and moves vertically along the fixed gantry 1. A gap 4 is provided between the limiting device 3 and the side surface of the sliding gantry 2. See Figure 4 , when the sliding gantry 2 is lifted and stretched, it causes the gantry to swing. The limiting device 3 abuts against the side surface of the sliding gantry 2 to limit the swing amplitude of the sliding gantry 2 not to exceed the range of the gap.

[0023] In this embodiment, the limiting device 3 is arranged on both sides of the fixed gantry 1. In other embodiments, the limiting device 3 is only arranged on one side of the fixed gantry 1, and the effect of limiting the swing amplitude of the sliding gantry can also be achieved.

[0024] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the limiting device 3 includes an adjustment plate 5 and an adjustment component 6. A threaded hole 7 is provided on the adjustment plate 5. The adjustment component 6 and the adjustment plate 5 are threadedly connected. The inner end of the adjustment component 6 and the side surface of the sliding gantry 2 are provided with the gap 4.

[0025] The range of the gap 4 is 1 mm - 3 mm. See Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 5 shown. The inner dotted line in Figure 5 shows the initial position of the sliding gantry 2, and the outer dotted line shows the maximum swing amplitude position of the sliding gantry. When the sliding gantry 2 is lifted and stretched, the sliding gantry 2 swings. When the sliding gantry 2 swings to the position of the outer dotted line in Figure 4 shown, the limiting device 3 abuts against the side surface of the moving gantry 2 to ensure that the swing amplitude of the sliding gantry 2 does not exceed the range of the gap shown in

[0026] The range of the gap 4 is 1 mm - 3 mm. Figure 3 In this embodiment, the adjustment component 6 is a combination of a nut 6 and a stud 9. See

[0027] , after the stud 9 passes through the nut 6 and the threaded hole 7 on the adjustment plate 5, a suitable gap 4 is left with the side surface of the sliding gantry 2, and then the nut 6 is tightened to the surface of the adjustment plate 5 to fix the stud 9. The gap 4 is the limiting range of the swing amplitude of the sliding gantry 2. In other embodiments, the adjustment component 6 can also be a screw or a bolt.

[0028] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the shape of the notch 10 is a straight line. In other embodiments, the shape of the notch 10 may be a cross.

The multi-stage sliding gantry is connected by a pulley 11. The limiting device 3 is used to limit the swing amplitude of the gantry between each two adjacent sliding gantry. Apart from this, the other structures are the same as those in embodiment 1. In other embodiments, the number of the multi-stage sliding gantry is more than three. In this embodiment, the multi-stage sliding gantry is a three-stage sliding gantry, and the sliding gantry located below in each two adjacent sliding gantry 2 is a secondary sliding gantry 21, and the upper end of the secondary sliding gantry is provided with the limiting device 3. By providing the limiting device 3 on the secondary sliding gantry 21 of each two adjacent sliding gantry, the swing amplitude of the sliding gantry between each two adjacent sliding gantry is limited, thereby limiting the swing amplitude of the entire gantry when lifting.

[0031] The gantry limiting device provided by the utility model can be applied to the forklift gantry system, the adjusting component 6 passes through the threaded hole 7 on the adjusting plate 5, and leaves a suitable gap 4 between the adjusting component 6 and the side of the sliding gantry 2, and the gap 4 is the limiting range of the swing amplitude of the sliding gantry 2. When the sliding gantry 2 is lifted and stretched, the sliding gantry 2 swings, and when the sliding gantry 2 swings to the maximum value of the gap 4, the side of the sliding gantry 2 will be supported by the inner end of the adjusting component 6, thereby limiting the swing amplitude of the sliding gantry 2 to not exceed the set gap range.

[0032] The utility model also provides a forklift gantry system, comprising the gantry limiting device described in any of the above technical solutions.
