Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transfer trolley technology, specifically a manual / automatic trolley for cargo transfer. Background Technology

[0002] Cargo transfer trolleys used in logistics transportation are manual pushing and pulling handling vehicles, also known as handcarts. These trolleys are typically used to transport small, lightweight goods, reducing transportation difficulty, making it easier to transport goods, and preventing them from tripping during transport. However, current cargo transfer trolleys are generally driven manually or automatically, which reduces their flexibility and makes them unsuitable for different application scenarios. Therefore, we propose a manual-automatic integrated trolley for cargo transfer to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model specifically adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A manual / automatic trolley for cargo transfer includes a U-shaped base plate. A U-shaped load-bearing tube is fixed to the bottom of the U-shaped base plate. A left power steering wheel, a right power steering wheel, a left power directional wheel, and a right power directional wheel are mounted on the bottom of the U-shaped load-bearing tube via pads. Four positioning tubes are fixed to the top of the U-shaped base plate, and a top plate is fixed to the top of the four positioning tubes. A handrail is provided on one side of the top plate and fixed to the top of the U-shaped load-bearing tube. An electrical control box is fixed to the surface of the handrail. A door is hinged to the front of the electrical control box, and two material scanning sensors are fixed to the back of the electrical control box.

[0006] Furthermore, the top of the top plate is fixed with four limiting feet by bolts.

[0007] Furthermore, U-shaped mounting blocks are fixed on both sides of the top of the U-shaped base plate, and limit scanning sensors are installed on one inner wall of each U-shaped mounting block.

[0008] Furthermore, the handrail is made of stainless steel, and the surface of the handrail is fixed with an anti-slip protective cover.

[0009] Furthermore, both the left and right power steering wheels are power steering wheels with self-locking functions.

[0010] Furthermore, each of the ventilation holes on both sides of the electrical control box is fixed with an annular frame, and each annular frame is fixed with a dustproof net.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a manual / automatic integrated trolley for cargo transfer, which has the following advantages:

[0012] This utility model, by setting up a U-shaped base plate, a U-shaped load-bearing tube, a left power steering wheel, a left power directional wheel, a right power steering wheel, a right power directional wheel, a positioning tube, a top plate, a handrail, an electrical control box, and a material scanning sensor, allows for both manual and automatic operation of this handcart for cargo transfer. Users can choose between manual or automatic modes according to their actual needs, flexibly adapting to different working environments and task requirements. Furthermore, the material scanning sensor and limit scanning sensor installed on the cart effectively prevent collisions when used in automatic mode, protecting the safety of personnel and goods.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model. Example

[0018] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown in the figure, an embodiment of this utility model proposes a manual / automatic trolley for cargo transfer, including a U-shaped base plate 1. A U-shaped load-bearing tube 2 is fixed to the bottom of the U-shaped base plate 1. A left power steering wheel 3, a right power steering wheel 5, a left power directional wheel 4, and a right power directional wheel 6 are installed at the bottom of the U-shaped load-bearing tube 2 via pads. Four positioning tubes 7 are fixed to the top of the U-shaped base plate 1. A top plate 8 is fixed to the top of the four positioning tubes 7. A handrail 9 is fixed to the top of the U-shaped load-bearing tube 2 on one side of the top plate 8. The handrail 9 is made of stainless steel, and the surface of the handrail 9 is fixed with... The anti-slip protective cover 16 and the handrail 9 are made of stainless steel, making them more durable. The anti-slip protective cover 16 increases the friction between the worker's hand and the surface of the handrail 9, thus achieving an anti-slip effect. An electrical control box 10 is fixed to the surface of the handrail 9. Annular frames 17 are fixed to the ventilation holes on both sides of the electrical control box 10. Dustproof nets 18 are fixed inside the annular frames 17. The ventilation holes allow for ventilation and heat dissipation inside the electrical control box 10, while the dustproof nets 18 block dust and lint from the outside air. To prevent objects from entering the electrical control box 10 and affecting the normal operation of its internal components, a door 11 is hinged to the front of the electrical control box 10. Two material scanning sensors 12 are fixed to the back of the electrical control box 10. When using this manual / automatic trolley for cargo transfer, after placing the goods on top of the top plate 8, the material scanning sensors 12 can read the information on the goods' labels, eliminating the need for manual recording and greatly reducing the time spent on manual data entry. Furthermore, it ensures that each item is accurately recorded, preventing omissions or duplicate scans. The left and right power steering wheels 3 and 5 are mainly used for the overall direction control and steering assistance of the trolley, providing a more flexible and precise operating experience. The left and right power directional wheels 4 and 6 are responsible for providing forward and backward driving force, ensuring that the trolley can complete the transportation task efficiently and stably. The electrical control box 10, material scanning sensor 12, and the left and right power steering wheels 3, 4, 5, and 6 used in the trolley are all existing technologies, so their electrical connections are not described in detail here.

[0019] like Figure 1 As shown, in some embodiments, the top of the top plate 8 is fixed with four limit feet 13 by bolts. The limit feet 13 can effectively prevent the goods placed on the top plate 8 from exceeding the safe range.

[0020] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in some embodiments, U-shaped mounting blocks 14 are fixed on both sides of the top of the U-shaped base plate 1, and limit scanning sensors 15 are installed on the inner wall of one side of the U-shaped mounting blocks 14. The limit scanning sensors 15 can monitor obstacles on both sides of the trolley. When an approach or impending collision is detected, an alarm is issued in time or the trolley is automatically stopped to avoid accidents. Especially in narrow passages or multi-person working environments, it can remind operators to pay attention to the surrounding situation.

[0021] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the left power steering wheel 3 and the right power steering wheel 5 are both power steering wheels with self-locking function. Because they have self-locking function, they can limit the movement of the trolley when it stops carrying goods, thus preventing the trolley from moving on its own.

[0022] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
