The floating drive wheel includes drive wheel, drive wheel upper end is equipped with connecting shaft, further include first fixed plate, the middle part of first fixed plate is equipped with bearing, the middle part of first fixed plate is equipped with aperture, bearing is arranged in aperture, connecting shaft is worn and fixed on bearing;Further include second fixed plate, second fixed plate is parallelly arranged with first fixed plate, the middle part of second fixed plate is equipped with bearing, connecting shaft is worn in bearing, shock-absorbing spring is equipped between second fixed plate and first fixed plate, further include the guide column being arranged between first fixed plate and second fixed plate.

[0005] As one of preferred schemes of a kind of electric stacker driving wheel floating structure, first fixed plate is square, shock-absorbing spring is four and is arranged in the four corners of square first fixed plate, and guide column is arranged between shock-absorbing spring.

[0006] As one of preferred schemes of a kind of electric stacker driving wheel floating structure, connecting shaft middle part is hollow and is arranged in the middle part drive wheel wire harness.

[0007] As one of preferred schemes of a kind of electric stacker driving wheel floating structure, shock-absorbing spring middle part is worn with guide top pressure column, and the length of guide top pressure column is lower than shock-absorbing spring.

[0008] As one of preferred schemes of a kind of electric stacker driving wheel floating structure, guide top pressure column is fixed on first fixed plate or second fixed plate.

[0009] As one of the preferred solutions for the floating structure of the drive wheel of an electric stacker, the guide column and the guide top pressure column are provided with an outer shoulder at their lower ends, and the outer shoulder is mounted on the first fixed plate.

[0011] The advantages of this utility model are as follows: the combination of drive wheels and shock absorbers allows the stacker truck to use rigid wheels while also having good passability. When encountering uneven ground, the shock absorber wheels move downwards under the action of the shock absorber springs and contact the ground for driving. During stacking operations, the rigid wheels around the stacker truck help stabilize the vehicle body. The guide top pressure column guides the shock absorber springs and, when the compression degree is large, contacts the second fixed plate for limiting and preventing the spring from being over-compressed.
