Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tarpaulin covering devices, and particularly relates to a tarpaulin laying bracket for a forklift. Background Technique

[0002] Large hook-connected trucks all adopt open truck beds, which are convenient for loading goods. However, in case of rain or snow, the goods are easily damaged. Therefore, it is necessary to cover the truck bed with a large tarpaulin for waterproofing. The covering of the tarpaulin usually requires the driver to climb onto the roof and lay it by hand after the goods are loaded, so that the tarpaulin covers the goods on the entire carriage. If the loaded goods are large non-standard structural parts, it is difficult for the driver to straddle the tall parts with the tarpaulin; if the whole vehicle is loaded with easily damaged packages such as cardboard boxes, the driver cannot climb onto the goods pile to lay the tarpaulin. At the same time, there are also problems such as the large area and heavy weight of the tarpaulin, and it is time-consuming and laborious for the staff to operate by hand. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a tarpaulin laying bracket for a forklift to solve the problems put forward in the above background technique.

[0004] A tarpaulin laying bracket for a forklift includes a support frame, the support frame is arranged vertically, the bottom of the support frame is fixedly connected with a forklift arm connector, the forklift arm connector is arranged horizontally, the top of the support frame is provided with a cantilever, the cantilever is arranged horizontally, the arrangement direction of the cantilever is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the forklift arm connector, and a tarpaulin connection device is arranged on the cantilever.

[0005] Preferably, a stay rod is arranged at the top of the support frame, a diagonal rod is fixedly connected to the stay rod, a first end of the diagonal rod is fixedly connected to the top end of the stay rod, and a second end of the diagonal rod is fixedly connected to an end of the cantilever far away from the support frame.

[0006] Preferably, there are two forklift arm connectors, which are respectively located on the left and right sides of the bottom end of the support frame, and the forklift arm connector is a hollow rectangular tube structure.

[0007] Furthermore, an anti-slip and shock-absorbing sleeve is arranged inside the forklift arm connector, and the anti-slip and shock-absorbing sleeve is made of rubber.

[0008] Preferably, the length of the cantilever is three meters.

[0009] Preferably, the tarpaulin connection device is fixedly connected to the cantilever, there are several tarpaulin connection devices, the tarpaulin connection device includes a connection block, a flexible chain is fixedly connected to the bottom of the connection block, and an alligator clip is fixedly connected to the lower end of the flexible chain.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: The present utility model is sleeved on two forklift arms of a forklift through two forklift arm connectors, enabling the forklift to drive the present utility model to move. The cantilever on the support frame is three meters long, and its width is greater than the body width of a large truck of the existing specification. A plurality of tarpaulin connecting devices are fixedly connected to the cantilever. Each fixing block is connected to an alligator clip through a short flexible chain. The alligator clip can be clamped and fixed on the locking edge of the tarpaulin. A plurality of alligator clips can simultaneously lift the entire narrow edge of the tarpaulin to make it parallel to the cantilever. By lifting the present utility model with a forklift and then driving the forklift from the rear of the truck to the front, the tarpaulin can be easily and smoothly covered on the truck carriage. Subsequently, ropes are used to connect the carriage and the tarpaulin buckles on the tarpaulin, thus realizing the laying of the tarpaulin on the truck carriage. Using the present utility model in cooperation with a forklift can quickly lay and cover the tarpaulin rolled up along the short side of the tarpaulin on the carriage. The unevenness of the goods in the carriage does not affect the laying speed of the tarpaulin because the forklift itself has a lifting function, and at the same time, the support frame provided in the present utility model also has a certain height. Therefore, the covering and laying of the tarpaulin are more time-saving and labor-saving compared to the traditional manual laying method.

[0011] A plurality of tarpaulin connecting devices are fixedly connected to the cantilever at equal intervals, and the number of tarpaulin connecting devices used can be adjusted according to the specific width of the canvas. Because the weight of some thickened tarpaulins is relatively large, more alligator clips are required to clamp so that the forklift can smoothly lift the thickened tarpaulin, and the scope of application is larger.

[0014] The following will combine specific embodiments and the attached Figure 1 to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model.

[0015] A tarpaulin laying bracket for a forklift includes a support frame 1. The support frame 1 is formed by welding four structural columns and multiple connecting rods. Both the structural columns and the connecting rods are square tube structures, with high structural strength and can play a good supporting role. The support frame 1 is arranged in the vertical direction and can play a role in raising the working surface to a certain extent.

[0016] The bottom of the support frame 1 is fixedly connected with a forklift arm connector 2. The forklift arm connector 2 is arranged horizontally, which facilitates the connection between the forklift arm connector 2 and the forklift. Thus, the forklift can lift the forklift arm connector 2 for operation. There are two forklift arm connectors 2, and the two forklift arm connectors 2 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the bottom end of the support frame 1. The forklift arm connector 2 is a hollow rectangular tube structure. During use, the two forklift arms of the forklift can be connected to it through the holes in the center of the forklift arm connector 2, and then the forklift arm connector 2 and the support frame 1 thereon can be lifted. A non-slip shock-absorbing sleeve 21 is arranged inside the forklift arm connector 2. The non-slip shock-absorbing sleeve 21 is made of rubber and is laid on the inner wall of the rectangular hole of the forklift arm connector 2. When the forklift arm extends into the forklift arm connector 2, the metal forklift arm contacts the non-slip shock-absorbing sleeve 21. The rubber non-slip shock-absorbing sleeve 21 has a relatively large friction coefficient with the metal, which can prevent the risk of slipping and falling when the forklift lifts and moves this device.

[0017] A cantilever 3 is arranged at the top of the support frame 1. The cantilever 3 is arranged horizontally. The first end of the cantilever 3 is fixedly connected with the support frame 1, and the second end of the cantilever 3 is in a suspended state. The setting direction of the cantilever 3 is perpendicular to the setting direction of the forklift arm connector 2. The forklift arm connector 2 is arranged in the front-back direction, while the cantilever 3 is arranged in the left-right direction. When the forklift picks up this device and walks from the rear of the truck to the front, the cantilever 3 can pass over the truck carriage. A tarpaulin connecting device 4 is arranged on the cantilever 3. The length of the cantilever 3 is three meters. The width of the truck carriage is generally between 2.3 - 2.5 meters. The side of the tarpaulin is connected to the cantilever 3 through the tarpaulin connecting device 4. By the forklift lifting this utility model and passing over the truck carriage, the tarpaulin can be easily covered on the carriage, which is convenient and fast.

[0018] A stay rod 31 is arranged at the top of the support frame 1. The stay rod 31 coincides with the support rod. A tie rod 32 is fixedly connected to the stay rod 31. The first end of the tie rod 32 is fixedly connected to the top end of the stay rod 31, and the second end of the tie rod 32 is fixedly connected to the end of the cantilever 3 far away from the support frame 1. The tie rod 32 can offset a part of the gravity of the cantilever 3 and prevent the cantilever 3 from breaking.

[0019] The tarpaulin connecting device 4 is fixedly connected to the cantilever 3. There are seven tarpaulin connecting devices 4. The tarpaulin connecting device 4 includes a fixing block 41. A flexible chain 42 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the fixing block 41. The lower end of the flexible chain 42 is fixedly connected to an alligator clip 43. The alligator clip 43 is used to clamp and fix the edge of the tarpaulin, which is convenient for installation and disassembly. According to different tarpaulins, different numbers of tarpaulin connecting devices 4 are required. If it is a plastic tarpaulin, its weight is light, and only two tarpaulin connecting devices 4 are needed to be connected to both ends of one side of the plastic tarpaulin on the left and right sides of the cantilever 3, and it will not fall off. If it is a three-proof tarpaulin or a silicone tarpaulin, whose weight is heavier than that of the plastic tarpaulin, more tarpaulin connecting devices 4 are required for connection to prevent the tarpaulin from falling off the tarpaulin connecting device 4 when the forklift drags and deploys the tarpaulin through the present utility model, thus delaying the work.
