Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of transport machinery, in particular to an up-and-down stair structure of a transport vehicle and a transport vehicle. Background Art

[0002] There are many mechanical structures currently used for transport vehicles to go up and down stairs, the most common ones include the following:

[0003] 1. Planetary Wheel Intelligent Stair Transporter: This type of transporter uses planetary wheels to achieve arbitrary curved motion, including rotation, curved turns, and stair climbing. However, its adaptability to real-world scenarios is insufficient, and it may encounter adaptability issues in complex stair environments, resulting in limited universal applicability.

[0004] 2. Wheel-type stair climbing devices: These devices can put significant pressure on the stair edges when climbing, potentially damaging the stair structure. Furthermore, they create significant resistance when used on flat ground, making turning difficult, and can be unstable and subject to significant fluctuations in the center of gravity.

[0005] 3. Gear-and-Four-Bar Mechanism Handling Device: This device utilizes gears and a four-bar mechanism to move goods up and down stairs through the reciprocating motion of wheels. The connecting rod outputs a rotational motion, with adjustable angle and speed, improving handling efficiency and reducing labor intensity. However, current designs require complex control systems to ensure precise operation and are susceptible to damage.

[0006] 4. Tracked passenger stair climbers: Traditional tracked stair climbers are heavy and costly. New designs utilize a wheel-track hybrid mechanism, reducing the weight of the structure. The design includes a track drive mechanism, a wheel-switch mechanism, a wheelchair-mounting adjustment mechanism, and a motion control system. However, this structure is more complex, resulting in an increased failure rate and reduced reliability, while still being relatively heavy. Furthermore, the complex design of the hybrid mechanism increases maintenance difficulty and costs.

[0007] 5. Leverage-based auxiliary mechanical device: A lever-based "eagle claw" sliding sleeve design allows for smooth sliding around the bends of stair handrails, allowing heavy objects to be evenly dragged along the handrail's slope, improving handling efficiency and convenience. However, this requires the construction of a track and is ineffective for unsupported stairways.

[0008] In summary, the current stair climbing mechanical structures have their own advantages and disadvantages. In practical applications, a stair climbing device that is more optimized, simple in structure, can work reliably, and is easy to maintain is needed. Utility Model Content
