Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of front moving forklift, especially to a hydraulic system for front moving oil cylinder of forklift and a trolley of front moving forklift. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the scenarios of logistics storage, supermarket distribution and industrial production, the front moving forklift becomes the preferred handling tool in the space-limited environment such as the narrow passageway of warehouse, the shelf area of supermarket and the workshop of factory, due to its convenient loading, high maneuverability and driving stability. The core design feature of the forklift is that the mast structure can be flexibly moved forward along the preset track of the leg, effectively shortening the operation distance for picking up or storing goods from the dense shelf. As to the working mechanism of the front moving forklift, the trolley assembly can be precisely moved forward and backward along the leg track under the direct drive of the front moving oil cylinder. The realization of this action relies on the accurate flow distribution of the reversing valve group. When the operator activates the forward moving instruction through the control console, the reversing valve group responds quickly, opens the oil path channel connected with the front moving oil cylinder, and allows the high-pressure hydraulic oil to be transmitted to the front moving oil cylinder through the high-pressure rubber tube, thereby driving the trolley to move forward or backward as needed.

[0003] However, in the actual operation process, especially in complex working conditions, such as when the forklift is simultaneously walking and moving forward, if an emergency braking situation occurs, the trolley will have a tendency to continue moving forward due to inertia. At this time, the actual speed of the trolley may exceed the driving speed of the front moving oil cylinder, causing the state of the trolley being actively driven by the front moving oil cylinder to change to a passive situation where the trolley drags the front moving oil cylinder to move. This unexpected state will quickly reduce the pressure in the inlet chamber of the front moving oil cylinder, forming a negative pressure environment, and thus causing the risk of air being sucked into the hydraulic system. Once air is mixed into the hydraulic oil, the compressibility of the oil will be significantly increased, directly affecting the stable operation of the hydraulic system, causing the operation precision to decrease, the movement of the trolley in the leg track to become unstable, and even causing the trolley to shake, which seriously affects the operation precision and safety of the forklift.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] ​The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of the utility model.

[0026] The implementation of the utility model will be described in detail below in combination with specific embodiments.

[0027] Embodiment 1

[0028] In the embodiments of the utility model, in combination with the reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 , a hydraulic system specially applied to a forklift front moving oil cylinder is provided, which mainly comprises a front moving oil cylinder 1, a balancing device 2 and a multi-way valve group 3. The front moving oil cylinder 1 establishes a connection relationship with the balancing device 2 through a first pipeline 4 and a second pipeline 5, and the balancing device 2 is connected with the multi-way valve group 3 through a third pipeline 6 and a fourth pipeline 7, and the multi-way valve group 3 is further connected with an oil source through a specific pipeline. In this system architecture, the balancing device 2 undertakes a very important function, that is, it can accurately balance the oil pressure between the first pipeline 4 and the second pipeline 5, so as to ensure the stability and reliability of the whole hydraulic system. Specifically, the first pipeline 4 is connected with the first oil port of the front moving oil cylinder 1, and correspondingly, the second pipeline 5 is connected with the second oil port of the front moving oil cylinder 1. In the working process of the hydraulic system, when the first oil port is filled with oil, under the driving action of the oil pressure, the piston rod of the front moving oil cylinder 1 will move forward, thereby realizing the forward moving operation of the forklift; when the second oil port is filled with oil, the oil pressure will cause the piston rod of the front moving oil cylinder 1 to retract, so that the forklift returns to the corresponding initial position or completes other specific action requirements. Under the effective balancing action of the balancing device 2 on the oil pressure, the running safety and stability of the whole hydraulic system are also fully guaranteed, and the equipment failure and operation risk caused by unbalanced oil pressure are reduced.

[0029] In the embodiment, the balancing device 2 specifically adopts a hydraulic balance valve. When the first one-way valve in the hydraulic balance valve connected with the first pipeline 4 is opened, the hydraulic oil provided by the oil source can flow into the first oil port of the forward-moving oil cylinder 1 through the first pipeline 4, so as to realize the oil inlet operation of the first oil port. At the same time, the oil passage in the hydraulic balance valve connected with the second pipeline 5 is synchronously conducted, so that the hydraulic oil in the second oil port of the forward-moving oil cylinder 1 can flow back along the conducted oil passage, thereby realizing the oil return process of the second oil port. Conversely, when the second one-way valve in the hydraulic balance valve connected with the second pipeline 5 is opened, the hydraulic oil will flow into the second oil port of the forward-moving oil cylinder 1 through the second pipeline 5, so as to achieve the oil inlet state of the second oil port. In this case, the oil passage in the hydraulic balance valve connected with the first pipeline 4 is also correspondingly conducted, so as to make the hydraulic oil in the first oil port flow back, thereby completing the oil return operation of the first oil port. The application of the hydraulic balance valve in the hydraulic system of the forward-moving oil cylinder of the forklift truck ingeniously utilizes the cooperative working mechanism of the internal one-way valve and oil passage, accurately and efficiently controls the oil inlet and oil return processes of the two oil ports of the forward-moving oil cylinder 1, effectively balances the oil pressure between the first pipeline 4 and the second pipeline 5, and ensures the stability and reliability of the forward-moving oil cylinder of the forklift truck during the extension and retraction operation of the piston rod.

[0030] Embodiment 2

[0031] In combination with reference Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the embodiment provides a carriage of a forward-moving forklift truck, which mainly consists of a carriage frame 8 and the hydraulic system for the forward-moving oil cylinder of the forklift truck as described in detail in Embodiment 1. The hydraulic system is installed on the carriage frame 8, and the carriage frame 8 is arranged on the base of the forklift truck. The fixed end of the forward-moving oil cylinder 1 is installed on the base of the forklift truck, and the driving end is installed on one side of the carriage frame 8. During the operation of the forklift truck, the extension and retraction movement of the forward-moving oil cylinder 1 can effectively push the carriage frame 8 to slide smoothly forward and backward on the base of the forklift truck, thereby meeting the demand of the forklift truck for adjusting the position of the goods during different operation scenarios. In addition, the carriage is also equipped with an oil supply device 9, which is fixedly installed on the forklift truck. The oil supply device 9 mainly includes an oil tank 901 and a power mechanism 902 connected with the oil tank 901. The oil tank 901 as a key component for storing hydraulic oil provides sufficient oil source guarantee for the continuous operation of the entire hydraulic system; and the power mechanism 902 is responsible for providing necessary power for the transmission of hydraulic oil, so as to ensure that the hydraulic oil can stably and efficiently circulate in the system. The multi-way valve group 3 is connected with the power mechanism 902 through the fifth pipeline 10 and the sixth pipeline 11, so as to realize the accurate distribution and adjustment of the hydraulic oil.

[0032] In order to enhance the durability of the pipeline and protect it from the outside environment, the fourth pipeline 7 and the fifth pipeline 10 are wrapped with a plastic chain 12, and the plastic chain 12 is made of plastic material. The plastic chain 12 has the advantages of light weight, good flexibility, corrosion resistance and the like. While protecting the pipeline from external environmental interference (such as friction, collision, dust, etc.), it can effectively reduce the negative impact of the weight of the chain 12 itself on the overall performance of the forklift, and can adapt to the frequent motion changes of the forklift in complex operating environments, ensuring the stability and safety of the pipeline during long-term use. In the selection of pipeline materials, the first pipeline 4, the second pipeline 5, the third pipeline 6, the fourth pipeline 7, the fifth pipeline 10 and the sixth pipeline 11 are all selected from high-pressure rubber pipes. The high-pressure rubber pipe has good pressure resistance, flexibility and wear resistance, and can meet the transmission requirements of high-pressure oil in the forklift hydraulic system, effectively reducing the risk of pipeline leakage and other faults, greatly improving the reliability and durability of the entire hydraulic system. In addition, the multi-way valve group 3 is also connected with the pipeline for supplying oil to the forklift lifting cylinder and tilting cylinder. This design enables the multi-way valve group 3 to control the forward movement, lifting and tilting of the forklift, and by reasonably distributing the flow direction and pressure of the hydraulic oil, it can meet the diversified operation requirements of the forklift in different operating tasks, further improving the overall operating efficiency and flexibility of the forklift, enabling it to efficiently and stably complete various tasks in complex and variable cargo handling scenarios.

[0033] In the design scheme of the present application, a hydraulic balance valve is introduced innovatively, which plays a core role in precisely controlling the speed of the forklift forward movement cylinder drive pulley moving forward and backward. During the operation of the hydraulic system, when the hydraulic balance valve detects that the pressure in the forward movement cylinder 1 oil inlet chamber is decreasing, the control mechanism inside it starts immediately, gradually reducing the flow of hydraulic oil in the return pipeline. In this way, the speed of the pulley can be effectively regulated, and it gradually slows down. In this way, the pressure in the forward movement cylinder 1 oil inlet chamber can always be maintained within a stable numerical range, effectively avoiding the occurrence of negative pressure. This stable pressure environment ensures that the pulley can run at a stable and predictable speed during forward and backward movement. Whether in conventional operating scenarios such as cargo handling, loading and unloading, or in some special working conditions with high requirements for speed stability, the accuracy, stability and safety of forklift operation can be ensured.

[0034] It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, without departing from the principles of the present application, the present application can be improved and modified in many ways, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the scope of protection of the claims of the present application.
