Description

Although it has simple structure and low cost, it still cannot fully meet the market demand for stacking storage operation under the condition of insufficient height. Specifically, it is easy to be affected by the vehicle body structure arrangement, and the center of gravity position deviates to one side, which makes the whole vehicle attitude unbalanced. The driving wheel or auxiliary universal wheel far from the center of gravity is easy to be suspended, or the driving force is insufficient due to insufficient ground pressure, which causes skidding phenomenon, and even the whole vehicle attitude is unstable during stacking operation, which causes overturning phenomenon.
