DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0027] The following further describes the present utility model in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can better understand the present utility model and be able to implement it, but the embodiments cited do not limit the present utility model.
[0028] Embodiment 1
[0029] Referring to Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, a lifting guide wheel structure of the present utility model includes,
[0030] support 1;
[0031] The rotating shaft 2 is arranged on the support 1.
[0032] The guide wheel bracket 3 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 2, and two symmetrically arranged guide wheel shafts 31 parallel to the rotating shaft 2 are rotatably arranged on the guide wheel bracket 3.
[0033] There are two guide wheels 4, and the two guide wheels 4 are respectively rotatably connected to the two guide wheel shafts 31.
[0034] Specifically, during the operation of the stacker, the guide wheels of the lifting guide wheel structure are in close contact with the lifting guide rail, playing a role of guiding and limiting, which can prevent the load platform connected thereto from swaying left and right during the lifting process, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the load platform during operation. And the guide wheels 4 run in close contact with the lifting guide rail. In this way, when the stacker picks up goods, the overall downward deflection of the load platform and the fork can be kept at a relatively small value, making the required lifting space for the goods relatively small, which brings the possibility of appropriately increasing the number of shelves and storing more goods.
[0035] Specifically, the two symmetrically arranged guide wheels 4 can rotate within a certain angle range around the rotating shaft 2 through the guide wheel bracket 3. In this way, when there is a large error or deformation in the straightness of the lifting guide rail, the guide wheels 4 can adaptively rotate within a certain range along with the contact surface with the lifting guide rail, thereby overcoming the occurrence of the load platform jamming situation due to the straightness error of the lifting guide rail or the deformation of the guide rail, ensuring the normal operation of the entire stacker. And the two movable guide wheels avoid the situation that a single guide wheel is overloaded when picking up goods, which can extend the service life of the guide wheels 4 (bearings) and reduce the use cost of the equipment.
[0036] In an embodiment of the present invention, the support 1 includes a base plate 11, and a groove body is vertically connected to one surface of the base plate 11. The groove body includes two connecting plates 12 arranged at intervals in the length direction thereof and parallel to the base plate 11, and the rotating shaft 2 is vertically connected between the two connecting plates 12.
[0037] In an embodiment of the present invention, one connecting plate 12 away from the base plate 11 is penetrated by one end of the rotating shaft 2, and a first limiting groove is vertically opened on the side surface of this end. A first clamping plate 13 embedded in the first limiting groove is connected to the connecting plate 12.
[0038] In an embodiment of the present invention, a plurality of kidney-shaped holes 14 are symmetrically opened on the base plate 11. The base plate 11 can be connected to the load platform at the kidney-shaped holes 14 through fasteners, and small-range position adjustment can be performed through the kidney-shaped holes, so as to ensure the relative position between the guide wheels 4 and the lifting guide rail.
[0039] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the guide wheel bracket 3 includes two parallel support plates 32. A center plate corresponding to the position of the center line is vertically connected between the two support plates 32. Moreover, two side plates symmetrically arranged on both sides of the center plate are vertically connected between the two support plates 32. Two accommodation positions are formed between the two side plates and the center plate, and the two guide wheels 4 are respectively arranged in the two accommodation positions.
[0040] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the two guide wheel shafts 31 are vertically connected between the two support plates 32 and are respectively located in the two accommodation positions. One end of each of the two guide wheel shafts 31 extends outside the support plate 32 on the same side. At the same time, a second limit groove is vertically opened on the side surface of the section where the guide wheel shaft 31 extends outside the support plate 32, and a second clamping plate 33 embedded in the second limit groove is horizontally connected to the support plate 32. Specifically, the first clamping plate 13 and the second clamping plate 33 are both rectangular plate structures and are respectively connected to the support 1 and the guide wheel bracket 3 by bolts. The shapes and sizes of the first clamping plate 13 and the second clamping plate 33 match the shapes and sizes of the first limit groove and the second limit groove. The two clamping plates respectively clamped in the first limit groove and the second limit groove can limit the axial movement of the rotating shaft 2 and the guide wheel shaft 31, and prevent the rotating shaft 2 and the guide wheel shaft 31 from detaching from their respective structures. More preferably, an oil injection channel extending from one end of the guide wheel shaft 31 to its circumferential surface can be opened on the guide wheel shaft 31, and an oil pressing oil cup 5 is arranged at the input end of the oil injection channel, which is convenient for injecting lubricating oil between the guide wheel 4 and the guide wheel shaft 31, and improving the smoothness and service life of the guide wheel 4 during operation.
[0041] In an embodiment of the present utility model, coaxially arranged shaft holes are vertically opened on the sides of the two support plates 32 away from the guide wheel 4, and a shaft sleeve coaxial with the shaft holes is vertically connected between the two support plates 32. The guide wheel bracket 3 is rotationally connected to the rotating shaft 2 through the shaft sleeve.
[0042] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the guide wheel bracket 3 is rotationally connected to the rotating shaft 2 through an oil-free bushing 6. The oil-free bushing 6 can still maintain lubricity without oil supply or reducing the number of oil supply times, and it has a large bearing pressure and can be used in heavy-load occasions.
[0043] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the guide wheel 4 adopts a cylindrical roller bearing. The cylindrical roller bearing has good radial load bearing capacity and can meet the transfer of heavy goods; and different specifications and models of bearings can be replaced according to actual situations to meet different use requirements.
