Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of tool cart design, and particularly relates to a two-wheel drive self-propelled cart. Background Art
[0002] At present, during the overhaul of factory equipment, workers generally need to carry a lot of special tools. The existing carrying method is usually to place the special tools on a tool cart, and the worker pushes the tool cart forward. After reaching the designated position, the tool cart is stopped, and the worker takes the special tools from the tool cart to carry out the overhaul work.
[0003] However, when the equipment is large, the worker usually has to observe the equipment first. After the observation is completed, the worker returns to the place where the tool cart is placed, and then pushes the tool cart to the position that needs to be overhauled. In addition, manual repeated pushing of the tool cart is required to change to different positions. Such a processing method causes the worker to be distracted and waste time in operating the tool cart, and the work efficiency is low.
[0004] In the prior art, there is a two-wheel remote control solution that can control the movement and turning of the cart. However, there is currently no solution to apply this technology to a tool cart. When applying it to a tool cart, not only the stability of the whole vehicle during high-speed movement needs to be considered, but also whether the cart will collide with operators, pets, equipment and other items. In addition, for convenient use, it is also necessary to consider how the cart follows the operator for movement. At the same time, the activity area of the cart in the workshop also needs to be considered to prevent the cart from leaving the workshop together with the operator. Therefore, it is necessary to design a two-wheel drive self-propelled cart to solve this technical problem. Content of the Utility Model
