Forklift hopper tipping device

Abstract

The utility model discloses a forklift hopper tipping device which comprises a hopper body, and a tipping assembly used for tipping materials in the hopper body is arranged at the bottom end of the hopper body. When tipping operation needs to be carried out, firstly, the hopper safety pin is pulled out, the fork frame of the forklift is tilted forwards to enable the hopper body to have a certain inclination angle, at the moment, the carrier roller rotationally connected into the groove in the top end of the iron shoe of the forklift can drive the hopper body to slide forwards, and when the sliding distance exceeds half of the length of the iron shoe of the forklift, the hopper body is pulled out. When the hopper body overturns due to weightlessness, the limiting connecting rod reaches the tail end of the sliding groove through the limiting sliding groove and the sliding rod and does not move forwards any more, the hopper body is limited by the limiting connecting rod and does not incline forwards or slide downwards any more, and at the moment, material dumping is completed. And when returning is needed, the fork teeth only need to fall down to be lifted by the ground or an object to finish returning, and the device does not need to be pushed by electric power or hydraulic power and is convenient and rapid to mount and dismount.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of forklift function expansion, in particular to a forklift hopper tipping device. Background Art

[0002] In steel production, a forklift is an industrial vehicle used for transporting and stacking goods. Forklifts can quickly and efficiently transport and stack goods, greatly shortening the loading and unloading time and improving the overall logistics efficiency. In actual production, most of the time when using a forklift is to transport steel pipe products. Sometimes when transporting materials that need to be dumped (such as slag powder), the forklift cannot directly transport them, and a forklift truck needs to be used. However, in the actual production of the inventor, the situation of transporting materials that need to be dumped is not much, and the weight is not large either. Therefore, it is not necessary to separately configure a forklift truck and coordinate borrowing, which is a waste of time and reduces production efficiency. When using a forklift and then directly placing a loading hopper, it is really inconvenient during transportation. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a forklift hopper tipping device to solve the problem that if a forklift wants to transport dumpable materials during use, it must replace the special machinery, resulting in inconvenient transportation.

[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solution: A forklift hopper tipping device includes a hopper body. At the bottom end of the hopper body, there is a tipping assembly for tipping the materials in the hopper body. The tipping assembly includes forklift shoes symmetrically arranged at the bottom end of the hopper body and a tipping frame fixed to one end of the forklift shoes. A chute is opened at the top end of the tipping frame, and a limiting connecting rod is slidably connected inside the chute. And connecting blocks rotatably connected to the limiting connecting rod are symmetrically and fixedly installed at the bottom end of the hopper body. A hopper safety pin is fixedly installed at one end of the forklift shoe.

[0005] As a further scheme of the utility model: A groove is opened at the top end of the forklift shoe, and a roller for reducing the sliding friction between the hopper body and the forklift shoe is rotatably connected inside the groove, and the rollers are symmetrically and evenly rotatably connected inside the groove.

[0006] As a further scheme of the utility model: One end of the roller is fixedly provided with a rotating shaft rotatably connected to the groove, and the rotating shafts are symmetrically fixed at both ends of the roller.

[0007] As a further scheme of the utility model: Limiting chutes for limiting the sliding of the limiting connecting rod are opened inside the tipping frame, and the limiting chutes are symmetrically opened at both ends inside the tipping frame.

[0008] As a further solution of the utility model: One end of the limiting connecting rod is fixedly provided with a sliding rod that slides in the limiting sliding groove, and the sliding rods are symmetrically fixedly arranged at both ends of the limiting connecting rod.

[0009] As a further solution of the utility model: One end of the forklift iron shoe is provided with a fixing groove for fixedly installing with the forklift fork teeth, and a locking top screw that is rotationally and penetratively connected to the bottom end of the fixing groove and abuts and fixes with the forklift fork teeth is provided.

[0010] As a further solution of the utility model: A connecting plate for fixing is fixedly installed in the middle of two groups of the forklift iron shoes, and the connecting plates are symmetrically fixedly installed in the middle of the two groups of forklift iron shoes.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:

[0012] 1. First, the fork teeth of the forklift are inserted into the fixing groove at one end of the forklift iron shoe, and then the locking top screw penetrates through the bottom end of the forklift iron shoe and abuts and fixes with the fork teeth of the forklift. The forklift iron shoe can be conveniently fixed at one end of the fork teeth of the forklift through the fixing groove and the locking top screw. When tilting operation is not required, the hopper body and the forklift iron shoe are locked through the hopper safety pin, and normal transportation operation can be carried out;

[0013] 2. When tilting operation is required, first pull out the hopper safety pin, and tilt the forklift fork carriage forward to make the hopper body have a certain inclination angle. At this time, the idler roller rotatably connected inside the top groove of the forklift iron shoe can drive the hopper body to slide forward. When the sliding distance exceeds half of the length of the forklift iron shoe, the hopper body will tip over due to weightlessness. At this time, the limiting connecting rod reaches the end of the sliding groove through the limiting sliding groove and the sliding rod and no longer moves forward, and the hopper body is no longer tilted forward and slides down due to the limitation of the limiting connecting rod. At this time, the dumping of the material is completed. When returning to the original position, only need to lower the fork teeth and lift it with the help of the ground or an object to complete the reset. This device does not require electric or hydraulic power to push, and is convenient and fast for installation and disassembly.

[0014] Therefore, this kind of forklift hopper tilting device has strong versatility, can be quickly installed on the forklift, and is used as a "forklift" for handling dumpable materials, improving the utilization rate of the forklift, reducing the cost of replacing vehicles, and improving the production work efficiency.
