Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of battery moving clamp technology, specifically to a forklift battery lifting clamp. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of forklift batteries, individual batteries, as core components, need to go through multiple transfer processes. In addition to the standardized operation of assembling them into power boxes in batches, some semi-finished batteries or spare batteries are often stored in pallets, large containers and other turnover containers.

[0003] Due to capacity requirements, individual batteries are often designed as vertical cuboid structures (with a height of over 500mm), and their weight generally exceeds 20kg, with no dedicated handles on the surface. When these scattered batteries need to be lifted from the storage container and placed on a trolley on the side of the storage container for individual sampling and inspection, it is difficult for workers to find a stable point of leverage when lifting them because there are no protrusions around the individual batteries.

[0004] To facilitate handling, some workers remove the electrolyte filler cap from the top of the individual battery to lift it, using the filler port as a fulcrum. This repeated removal and installation of the filler cap is time-consuming, far exceeding the time required to move the battery from its container to another, reducing work efficiency. Furthermore, improper sealing during removal and installation can lead to electrolyte leakage during subsequent use. Secondly, some workers, to save time, do not use protective tools and directly reach into the filler port with their bare hands, using the inner wall of the filler port as a leverage point to lift it, posing a significant safety risk. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a forklift battery lifting clamp that can effectively lift individual batteries without disassembling the electrolyte plug, thereby improving work efficiency and avoiding electrolyte leakage caused by secondary disassembly and assembly, thus reducing safety risks.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is: a forklift battery lifting clamp, comprising:

[0007] The support frame includes two horizontally spaced support rods, the distance between which is not less than the width of the battery;

[0008] A clamping plate, the upper end of which is rotatably connected to the support rod;

[0009] A handle is fixed to the upper end of the clamping plate. The handle has a straight rod-shaped gripping part, and the angle between the gripping part and the clamping plate is greater than 90°.

[0010] When the two handles are lifted, the two clamping plates rotate inward around the support rod, and together they clamp the battery from both sides.

[0011] A further improvement of this utility model is that a rotating cylinder is rotatably connected to the support rod, and the clamping plate is fixedly mounted on the rotating cylinder.

[0012] A further improvement of this utility model is that the support frame further includes two side rods respectively disposed at both ends of the two support rods, and a reinforcing rod disposed between the two side rods.

[0013] A further improvement of this utility model is that the included angle between the gripping part and the clamping plate is less than 120°.

[0014] A further improvement of this utility model is that the clamping plate includes a clamping surface and an outer surface opposite to the clamping surface, and the included angle between the clamping surface and the outer surface is less than 15°.

[0015] A further improvement of this utility model is that the two handles are staggered.

[0016] A further improvement of this utility model is that the clamping surface of the clamping plate is provided with an elastic protrusion, the thickness of which is greater than 5mm.

[0017] A further improvement of this utility model is that the elastic protrusions are provided in at least two rows, spaced apart vertically on the clamping surface of the clamping plate.

[0018] A further improvement of this invention is that each row of elastic protrusions is linearly arrayed along the length of the clamping plate.

[0019] A further improvement of this utility model is that the elastic protrusion is a hemispherical protrusion with a thickness of 2cm.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0021] This invention uses a handle to control two clamps to clamp the individual battery cells, thereby effectively lifting the cells without disassembling the electrolyte plug, thus improving work efficiency and avoiding electrolyte leakage caused by secondary disassembly and assembly, reducing safety risks.

[0022] The handle of this invention is staggered, allowing for a more comfortable natural hand position during operation and reducing mutual interference. Furthermore, the staggered design may help balance the clamp's center of gravity, resulting in more stable hand control.

[0023] In this invention, the clamping surface of the clamping plate is provided with elastic protrusions. The elastic protrusions contact the surface of the battery, increasing the contact area and improving the stability of clamping. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The present invention will be further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0028] Example 1: Combination Figures 1-2 It is known that a forklift battery lifting clamp includes:

[0029] The support frame 1 includes two horizontally spaced support rods 2, the distance between which is not less than the width of the battery;

[0030] Clamping plate 3, the upper end of which is rotatably connected to support rod 2;

[0031] A handle is fixed to the upper end of the clamping plate 3. The handle has a straight rod-shaped gripping part 4, and the angle between the gripping part 4 and the clamping plate 3 is greater than 90°.

[0032] When the two handles are lifted, the two clamping plates 3 rotate inward around the support rod 2, and together they clamp the battery from both sides.

[0033] A rotating drum 5 is rotatably connected to the support rod 2, and a clamping plate 3 is fixedly mounted on the rotating drum 5.

[0034] The two handles are offset. See also Figure 1 One handle is located slightly to the left of the center of the clamping plate, and the other handle is located slightly to the right of the center of the other clamping plate. When both handles are lifted, one rotates counterclockwise and the other rotates clockwise, thus clamping the battery.

[0035] The handle includes a curved portion fixedly connected to the rotating drum 5, with one end of the curved portion fixedly connected to the rotating drum 5 and the other end fixedly connected to the grip portion.

[0036] The support frame 1 also includes two side rods 6 respectively located at both ends of the two support rods 2, and a reinforcing rod 7 located between the two side rods 6.

[0037] Preferably, the angle between the gripping part 4 and the clamping plate 3 is less than 120°. More preferably, the angle between the gripping part 4 and the clamping plate 3 is 105°.

[0038] The clamping plate includes a clamping surface and an outer surface opposite to the clamping surface, and the included angle between the clamping surface and the outer surface is less than 15°.

[0039] The clamping surface of the clamping plate 3 is provided with elastic protrusions 8, the thickness of which is greater than 5mm. Preferably, the elastic protrusions 8 are provided in at least two rows, spaced apart vertically on the clamping surface of the clamping plate 3. Preferably, the elastic protrusions 8 are made of rubber.

[0040] Optionally, the elastic protrusion 8 can be a long strip protrusion.

[0041] Optionally, the elastic protrusions are hemispherical protrusions with a thickness of 2 cm. Each row of elastic protrusions 8 is linearly arrayed along the length of the clamping plate 3.

[0042] The working principle of the forklift battery lifting clamp provided by the utility model is as follows: When in use, the support frame 1 is placed on the upper end of the single battery, and the two clamping plates 3 are located on both sides of the battery respectively. The operator holds the two gripping parts 4 with both hands, lifts the gripping parts 4, and the two clamping plates 3 close together to clamp the battery between them. Then the battery can be lifted and moved.
