Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of forklift production equipment, in particular to a forklift balance heavy carrier. Background Art

[0002] A forklift, also known as a forklift truck, refers to a lifting vehicle that uses a fork or other working device to load and unload goods by itself, and is commonly used for transporting large objects in a warehouse. The counterbalanced forklift is the most commonly used type. The forklift counterweight is mainly used to maintain the stability and balance of the forklift, balance the longitudinal tipping moment generated by the mass of the goods, ensure that the forklift will not tip over or roll over during operation, and can also improve the load-bearing capacity of the forklift.

[0003] The material of the forklift counterweight is generally cast iron, with low strength and ductility. Because the forklift counterweight has the characteristics of large mass, large volume, and complex shape, the main features of the overall shape of the existing forklift counterweight are the left mounting convex block 50, the right mounting convex block 51, the middle support part 52, and the bottom flange 53 on both sides (refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 ). When transporting it, it is necessary to avoid shaking or bumping as much as possible to prevent damage or deformation caused by bumping to the forklift counterweight, thus affecting subsequent use.

[0004] At present, for the transfer device of the forklift counterweight on the market, referring to the Chinese utility model patent CN 216375786U, this patent discloses a forklift counterweight transfer rack, which includes a horizontal bracket and a vertical hanging rack. The vertical hanging rack is vertically fixed on the top of the horizontal bracket. The vertical hanging rack includes two vertical channel steels symmetrically hanging on both side walls of the horizontal bracket, a rectangular tube 1 fixed between the side walls at the top ends of the two vertical channel steels, and hook plates hanging on both side walls at the top ends of the vertical channel steels for hanging the forklift counterweight.

[0005] When using the transfer rack of this patent, only the corresponding card slots inside the forklift counterweight are hooked by the hook plates. However, the overall weight of the forklift counterweight is large, and this hanging method will make the overall center of gravity of the forklift counterweight too high, and the load distribution is uneven. It is easy to be unstable and shake when moving due to the high center of gravity. Moreover, only the hook plates are used to position and support the forklift counterweight, and the longitudinal channel steel only supports the bottom of the counterweight without a positioning function. The hook plates and the longitudinal channel steel do not form a stable positioning for the forklift counterweight, and it may cause the counterweight to shake and slide during transportation or movement due to uneven road surfaces, resulting in bumps and damage to the forklift counterweight, affecting subsequent use. Summary of the Utility Model

[0006] The utility model provides a forklift balance heavy carrier, aiming to solve the problems that the existing forklift counterweight transfer rack is prone to slipping and causing bumps during the transfer or movement process, damaging the forklift counterweight, and affecting subsequent use, etc.

The first card slot and the second card slot are symmetrically arranged at the front end of the carrier body. When the forklift balance weight is inclined and positioned on the top of the carrier body, the left mounting lug and the right mounting lug of the forklift balance weight are supported and positioned in the first card slot and the second card slot, and the bottom flange of the forklift balance weight is clamped in the positioning slot.

[0009] Furthermore, the above carrier body further includes a relief groove for placing the middle support part of the forklift balance weight, and the relief groove is provided in the middle of the front end of the carrier body.

[0010] Furthermore, the above carrier body includes a first frame body, a second frame body, a third frame body and a fourth frame body which are stacked. The first frame body includes three parallel support brackets one. The three support brackets one are arranged at intervals, and the gap formed between two adjacent support brackets one is the slot;

[0011] The second frame body is fixedly provided at the top end of the first frame body. The second frame body is perpendicular to the first frame body. The second frame body includes a support bracket two and a support bracket three. Two parallel support brackets two are fixed at the front end of the top of the first frame body, and a support bracket three parallel to the support bracket two is fixedly provided at the rear end of the top of the first frame body;

[0012] The third frame body is fixedly provided at the top of the second frame body. The third frame body includes a support bracket four fixedly arranged between two adjacent support brackets two, and a support bracket five fixedly arranged between the support bracket two and the support bracket three at the foremost end. There are two support brackets four, and they are respectively arranged at the left and right ends of the support bracket two. There are two support brackets five, and they are arranged between the two support brackets four;

[0013] The fourth frame body is also fixedly provided at the top of the third frame body. The fourth frame body is perpendicular to the third frame body. The fourth frame body includes two support brackets six, and the two support brackets six are installed at intervals at the ends of the support bracket five;

[0014] A step groove is respectively formed between the two support brackets four and the support bracket two at the rearmost end, and the step groove forms the first card slot and the second card slot; The positioning slot is formed by enclosing between the two support brackets five and the two support brackets six; The relief groove is formed by enclosing between the two support brackets two and the two support brackets five.

[0015] Furthermore, the above first frame body, second frame body, third frame body and fourth frame body are made of wooden strips or channel steels.

[0016] From the above description of the structure of the present utility model, the present utility model has the following advantages:

[0017] The first card slot, the second card slot and the positioning slot of the forklift counterweight bracket of the utility model respectively position and support the left mounting protrusion, the right mounting protrusion and the bottom flange in the main structure of the overall shape of the forklift counterweight, forming a triangular stable structure positioning. When the forklift counterweight is reset on the top of the bracket, it is inclined, and the center of gravity of the forklift counterweight as a whole is also lowered. It has stronger stability when transporting or moving it, avoiding shaking that causes the forklift counterweight to slide off the bracket, causing damage to the forklift counterweight, affecting subsequent use.
