Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air source heat pump handling technology, and in particular to a special tooling for transporting air source heat pumps by forklift. Background Technology

[0002] An air source heat pump is a device that operates on the reverse Carnot cycle, transferring heat energy from a low-temperature heat source to a high-temperature heat source to provide heating and cooling. Its working principle involves a compressor system absorbing heat from the air to produce hot water or provide heating, while also offering cooling capabilities in summer.

[0003] Since air source heat pumps are relatively precise devices, forklifts are currently mainly used for loading and transporting them. However, due to the large weight of the equipment, shaking is inevitable during transport. In poor site conditions, this can easily cause the heat pump to tip over. Therefore, a special tooling for handling is needed to solve the current problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a special tooling for transporting air source heat pumps by forklifts. By connecting a connector box to the bottom of the heat pump, the forklift forks are inserted into the connector box during transport, improving the stability of the heat pump on the forks. Furthermore, by using two friction blocks to abut against the upper surfaces of the two forks, a stable insertion operation of the forks is achieved.

[0005] The technical solution adopted to solve the above technical problems is: a special tooling for transporting air source heat pump forklifts, including a heat pump body, forks, a connector box, two spring rods and two friction blocks. The connector box is connected to the bottom of the heat pump body, the forks are inserted into the connector box, the two spring rods pass through the two sides above the connector box respectively, the spring rods are slidably connected to the connector box, the two friction blocks correspond one-to-one with the spring rods, the friction blocks are connected to the lower end of the spring rods, and the friction blocks are used to abut against the forks.

[0006] Furthermore, it also includes a sliding frame, two pressure plates, and two inclined block pressure members. The sliding frame is slidably connected to the inside of the plug-in box, the two pressure plates are respectively connected to both sides of the sliding frame, the fork pushes the pressure plates, and the two inclined block pressure members are respectively connected to both sides of the sliding frame. The inclined block pressure members pass through the upper side of the plug-in box and are slidably connected to the plug-in box. After the inclined block pressure members slide with the pressure plates, they press down on the friction block and abut against the fork.

[0007] Furthermore, it also includes a guide rod and a first spring. The guide rod is connected inside the plug-in box and passes through the sliding frame. The guide rod is slidably connected to the sliding frame. The first spring is sleeved on the guide rod and provides elastic force to the sliding frame.

[0008] Furthermore, it also includes a guide rail, a guide shoe, a second spring, and two guide arc blocks. The guide rail is connected to the bottom of the heat pump body, the guide shoe is connected to the upper side of the plug box, the plug box is slidably connected to the guide rail through the guide shoe, the plug box is connected to both sides of the plug box, and the two guide arc blocks are respectively connected to both sides inside the plug box. The guide arc blocks provide guidance for the fork to abut against the pressure plate.

[0009] Furthermore, it also includes two third springs, each corresponding to one of the spring rods. The third springs are sleeved on the spring rods and provide a restoring force for the spring rods.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By connecting a plug box to the bottom of the heat pump, the forklift forks are inserted into the plug box during transportation, which improves the stability of the heat pump on the forks. The two friction blocks abut against the upper surfaces of the two forks, further realizing the stable insertion operation of the forks. The specific abutting operation of the friction blocks is that the forks drive the pressure plate, causing the sliding frame to slide in the plug box. The sliding frame drives the two inclined block pressure pieces to slide. After sliding, the inclined block pressure pieces press down on the spring rod and the friction blocks, so that the friction blocks abut against the forks, thereby realizing the stable transportation operation of the heat pump and preventing the heat pump from tipping over during transportation.

[0016] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0017] like Figures 1-4 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a special tooling for transporting air source heat pump forklifts, including a heat pump body 1, a fork 2, a connector box 3, two spring rods 4, and two friction blocks 5. The connector box 3 is connected to the bottom of the heat pump body 1, the fork 2 is inserted into the connector box 3, the two spring rods 4 pass through the two sides above the connector box 3 respectively, and the spring rods 4 are slidably connected to the connector box 3. The two friction blocks 5 correspond one-to-one with the spring rods 4, and the friction blocks 5 are connected to the lower end of the spring rods 4. The friction blocks 5 are used to abut against the fork 2.

[0018] It also includes a sliding frame 6, two pressure plates 7 and two inclined block pressure pieces 8. The sliding frame 6 is slidably connected to the inside of the plug box 3. The two pressure plates 7 are respectively connected to the two sides of the sliding frame 6. The fork rod 2 pushes the pressure plates 7. The two inclined block pressure pieces 8 are respectively connected to the two sides of the sliding frame 6. The inclined block pressure pieces 8 penetrate through the upper side of the plug box 3. The inclined block pressure pieces 8 are slidably connected to the plug box 3. After the inclined block pressure pieces 8 slide with the pressure plates 7, they press down on the friction block 5 and abut against the fork rod 2.

[0019] In the above embodiments, by connecting the plug box 3 to the bottom of the heat pump, the forklift fork 2 is inserted into the plug box 3 during transportation, which improves the stability of the heat pump on the fork 2. The two friction blocks 5 abut against the upper surfaces of the two fork 2, further realizing the stable insertion operation of the fork 2. The specific abutting operation of the friction blocks 5 is that the fork 2 drives the pressure plate 7, so that the sliding frame 6 slides in the plug box 3. The sliding frame 6 drives the two inclined block pressure pieces 8 to slide. After sliding, the inclined block pressure pieces 8 press down the spring rod 4 and the friction blocks 5, so that the friction blocks 5 abut against the fork 2, thereby realizing the stable transportation operation of the heat pump and preventing the heat pump from tipping over during transportation.

[0020] Specifically, it also includes a guide rod 9 and a first spring 10. The guide rod 9 is connected inside the plug-in box 3 and passes through the sliding frame 6. The guide rod 9 is slidably connected to the sliding frame 6. The first spring 10 is sleeved on the guide rod 9 and provides elastic force to the sliding frame 6.

[0021] In the above embodiments, the guide rod 9 provides stable support for the sliding of the sliding frame 6. After the fork rod 2 is pulled out, the first spring 10 causes the sliding frame 6, the pressure plate 7, and the inclined block pressure member 8 to reset.

[0022] Specifically, it also includes a guide rail 11, a guide shoe 12, a second spring 13, and two guide arc blocks 14. The guide rail 11 is connected to the bottom of the heat pump body 1, the guide shoe 12 is connected to the upper side of the plug box 3, the plug box 3 is slidably connected to the guide rail 11 through the guide shoe 12, the second spring 13 is connected to both sides of the plug box 3, and the two guide arc blocks 14 are respectively connected to both sides inside the plug box 3. The guide arc blocks 14 provide guidance for the fork 2 to abut against the pressure plate 7.

[0023] In the above embodiments, during the process of inserting the fork 2 into the plug box 3, it is difficult for the fork 2 to align with the pressure plate 7. Therefore, a guide arc block 14 is provided. After the fork 2 abuts against the guide arc block 14, the plug box 3 will slide slightly left and right on the guide rail 11 to adjust its position. After the fork 2 is inserted into the plug box 3, due to the action of the guide arc block 14, the fork 2 abuts against the pressure plate 7 accurately. The second spring 13 causes the plug box 3 to reset after the transportation is completed.

[0024] Specifically, it also includes two third springs 15, which correspond one-to-one with the spring rod 4. The third springs 15 are sleeved on the spring rod 4 and provide the spring rod 4 with a restoring force.

[0025] In the above embodiments, after the transportation is completed, the third spring 15 acts on the spring rod 4, causing the spring rod 4 to move upward and reset.

[0026] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: During the handling operation, the forklift is controlled so that the fork 2 is roughly aligned with the connector box 3. The fork 2 is inserted into the connector box 3. The guide arc block 14 causes the connector box 3 to adjust its position slightly left and right. During this process, the connector box 3 slides left and right on the guide rail 11 through the guide shoe 12. After the fork 2 enters the connector box 3, due to the action of the guide arc block 14, the fork 2 is precisely aligned with the pressure plate 7. The tip of the fork 2 pushes the pressure plate 7 to slide, and the pressure plate 7 drives the sliding frame 6 to slide. At this time, the first spring 10 is in a compressed state, and the sliding frame 6 drives the inclined block pressure pieces 8 on both sides. The inclined surface of the pressure piece 8 contacts the upper end of the spring rod 4, squeezing the spring rod 4 and causing it to move downward. The downward movement of the spring rod 4 drives the friction block 5 to move downward. After the friction block 5 moves downward, it abuts against the upper surface of the fork 2. At this time, the spring rod 4 is compressed to a certain extent, realizing a stable connection between the plug rod and the heat pump. After the transfer is completed, the plug rod is pulled out. Due to the action of the first spring 10, the sliding frame 6, the pressure plate 7, and the inclined block pressure piece 8 are reset. The inclined block pressure piece 8 is separated from the upper end of the spring rod 4. Due to the action of the third spring 15, the spring rod 4 and the friction block 5 are reset. Due to the action of the second spring 13, the plug box 3 slides and resets on the guide rail 11.

[0027] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model.
