[0002] The three-stage forklift mast, also known as a three-section mast or telescopic mast, is a device used to improve the vertical lifting capacity and spatial flexibility of forklifts. Compared with the two-stage mast, the three-stage mast achieves a higher lifting height and more precise cargo handling capacity by adding an intermediate section, and is particularly suitable for warehouses, logistics centers, and production facilities with limited space or high stacking requirements.

A high-pressure oil pipe 19 is arranged on the inner side of the cross beam close to the outer gantry 1 to prevent the high-pressure oil pipe 19 from being squeezed by the vehicle body. The three-way body weldment 13 communicates with the speed limit valve 14 and the high-pressure oil pipe 19.

[0022] In this embodiment, the front lifting assembly includes a middle cylinder 6, a middle chain 7, a triple pipeline one 11, a quadruple pipeline one 12, and a pipeline mounting base one 20. The middle cylinder 6 is arranged at the middle position of the inner gantry 3, making it more stable during operation. The movement direction of the output end of the middle cylinder 6 is vertically upward. A pipeline mounting base one 20 is arranged on the output end of the middle cylinder 6. One end of the chain of the middle cylinder 6 is connected to the inner gantry 3, and the other end is connected to the fork carriage 9. And the chain of the middle cylinder 6 slides around the side of the pipeline mounting base one 20. Preferably, a pulley is rotatably arranged on the side of the pipeline mounting base one 20, and the chain of the middle cylinder 6 is hung on the pulley, reducing the friction. The triple pipeline one 11 and the quadruple pipeline one 12 are respectively slidably arranged on the left and right sides of the pipeline mounting base one 20. After the triple pipeline one 11 and the quadruple pipeline one 12 are assembled, they do not affect the driver's line of sight, improving the driving safety.

[0023] In this embodiment, the rear lifting assembly includes side cylinders 5, side chains 4, a triple pipeline two 15, a quadruple pipeline two 16, a pipeline mounting base two 21, and a sprocket. The side cylinders 5 are arranged behind the outer gantry 1. Preferably, there are two side cylinders 5, which are respectively arranged on both sides behind the outer gantry 1, improving the lifting stability while leaving the field of vision in the middle of the gantry clear for the driver's observation. The movement direction of the output end of the side cylinders 5 is parallel to the movement direction of the output end of the middle cylinder 6. The output end of the side cylinders 5 is arranged on the middle gantry 2 and is used to drive the middle gantry 2 to lift and move. The sprocket is arranged on the rear of the middle gantry 2 through a wheel shaft. The side chain 4 is slidably hung on the sprocket, and one end of the side chain 4 is connected to the outer gantry 1, and the other end is connected to the inner gantry 3, and is used to drive the inner gantry 3 to lift and move when the middle gantry 2 lifts and moves. The pipeline mounting base two 21 is arranged behind the middle gantry 2. The triple pipeline two 15 and the quadruple pipeline two 16 are slidably hung on the pipeline mounting base two 21. And after the side chain 4, the triple pipeline two 15, and the quadruple pipeline two 16 are assembled, they do not block the driver's line of sight, improving the safety during use.

[0024] In this embodiment, it further includes a cargo retaining rack 8, which is arranged on the fork carriage 9 and behind the fork 10, and is used to increase the lateral support for the goods after picking up the goods on the shelf, avoiding the goods from tipping over and improving the practicality of the device.

[0025] In this embodiment, the outer gantry 1 is set as a C-shaped steel channel, and the middle gantry 2 and the inner gantry 3 are both set as J-shaped steel channels, which is convenient for assembly and connection, and while not affecting the strength of the gantry, it reduces the overall mass of the gantry, improving the economy of the device.

[0026] In this embodiment, the triple pipeline one 11 and the triple pipeline two 15 are connected by the transition joint one 17, and the quadruple pipeline one 12 and the quadruple pipeline two 16 are connected by the transition joint two 18. Both the transition joint one 17 and the transition joint two 18 are arranged on the inner gantry 3. The triple pipeline one 11, the triple pipeline two 15, the quadruple pipeline one 12, and the quadruple pipeline two 16 are all located between the cross beam and the fork frame 9, avoiding the possibility of extrusion damage to the pipelines when the gantry tilts backward, and improving the economy of the device.

[0027] Working principle: During use, the middle cylinder 6 and the side cylinder 5 are in the same oil circuit. The output end of the middle cylinder 6 extends first. The output end of the middle cylinder 6 drives the pipeline mounting seat one 20 to rise, causing the middle chain 7 to drive the fork frame 9 to rise relative to the inner gantry 3, thereby realizing the rise of the fork 10. At this time, the triple pipeline one 11 and the quadruple pipeline one 12 rise with the rise of the pipeline mounting seat one 20, and the pipelines will not entangle and block the driver's view; when the output end of the middle cylinder 6 is fully extended, the output end of the side cylinder 5 extends. The output end of the side cylinder 5 drives the middle gantry 2 to rise. The middle gantry 2 drives the pipeline mounting seat two 21 and the sprocket to move upward, causing the side chain 4 to drive the inner gantry 3 to rise accordingly. At this time, the triple pipeline two 15 and the quadruple pipeline two 16 slide with the rise of the middle gantry 2 and both move behind the side of the outer gantry 1, without affecting the driver's line of sight; and a cross beam is arranged at the bottom behind the outer gantry 1, and the pipelines of the triple pipeline one 11, the triple pipeline two 15, the quadruple pipeline one 12, and the quadruple pipeline two 16 are all arranged in front of the cross beam, avoiding the possibility of extrusion damage to the pipelines by the vehicle body.
