Some improved handcarts use simple jacking mechanisms to assist forklift operation, but have defects such as unstable jacking, inaccurate board positioning, and severe wear of parts, which cannot meet the efficient and safe operation requirements.
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to invent a handcart chassis structure. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0005] Preferably, the middle region of the chassis body is provided with a space for rotationally installing the shaft, the blocking plate is located on one side of one of the shafts, and the lifting cams fixedly installed on the three shafts do not interfere with each other.
[0006] Preferably, the worm wheel and the worm are located in the groove body, the space of the groove body allows the worm wheel and the worm to move, and the drive shaft allows the three shafts to synchronously and uniformly rotate through the worm and the worm wheel.
[0007] Preferably, the two ends of the shaft are respectively fixedly installed with lifting cams, the lifting cams on each shaft are mirror-symmetrically arranged, in the initial state, the convex part of the lifting cam faces downward, and the uppermost point of the convex part is lower than the upper surface of the chassis body.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0010] This invention drives the drive shaft by rotating the handle, which in turn meshes the worm gear with the worm wheel, thereby synchronously driving the three rotating shafts to rotate. This enables the lifting cam to quickly lift the plate, creating a gap between the plate and the chassis that allows the forklift forks to easily insert, significantly improving the forklift's picking efficiency and reducing the intensity of manual operation.
[0011] The baffle plate on the chassis body of this utility model works in conjunction with the lifting cam arranged in a mirror symmetry.

[0020] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 3 As shown:
[0021] This utility model provides a handcart chassis structure, including a chassis body 1, casters 2, baffles 3, shafts 4, grooves 5, worm gears 6, worms 7, drive shafts 8, handles 9, lifting cams 10, and rollers 11. Casters 2 are fixedly installed at the four corners of the chassis body 1, and baffles 3 are fixedly installed on one side above it. Three equally spaced shafts 4 are rotatably mounted on the chassis body 1. Each end of each shaft 4 rotatably passes into the groove 5 of the chassis body 1 and is fixedly connected to the worm gear 6 within the groove 5. The worm gear 6 meshes with the worm 7 fixedly mounted on the drive shaft 8. The drive shaft 8 is rotatably mounted on the chassis body 1, and a handle 9 is fixedly mounted at one end. Two lifting cams 10 are fixedly mounted on each shaft 4, and rollers 11 are rotatably mounted on each lifting cam 10.
[0022] Furthermore, the chassis body 1 is integrally formed from Q235 high-strength steel plate, with a hollowed-out space in the middle area created by stamping for the rotatable mounting of the shaft 4. A self-lubricating copper sleeve is embedded within the hollowed-out space to reduce frictional resistance during shaft 4 rotation. The baffle plate 3 is made of 8mm thick aluminum alloy plate and is fixed to one edge of the chassis body 1 by welding, located to the side of one of the shafts 4. The three shafts 4 are machined from 45# steel and arranged laterally at equal intervals. The shafts 4 are rotatably connected to the chassis body 1 via tapered roller bearings. The lifting cams 10 fixedly mounted on each shaft 4 have their motion trajectories precisely planned using 3D modeling to ensure they do not interfere with each other during rotation.
[0023] Furthermore, the worm gear 6 is made of tin bronze, a material with excellent wear resistance, and is precision machined after casting. The worm 7 is made of 40Cr alloy steel, which is tempered and then surface-hardened to enhance its wear resistance and strength. Both the worm gear 6 and the worm 7 are located within the groove 5, which is formed by a downward indentation from the chassis body 1 and is secured with a sealing cover plate by bolts. The internal space of the groove 5 is precisely calculated to ensure that the worm gear 6 and the worm 7 have sufficient movement space during transmission. The groove 5 is also filled with lithium-based grease to reduce wear on the transmission components. The drive shaft 8 is also made of 45# steel, and its two ends are mounted on the chassis body 1 via deep groove ball bearings. The drive shaft 8 and the worm 7 are connected by a flat key, ensuring that when the drive shaft 8 rotates, it can drive the three rotating shafts 4 to rotate synchronously and in the same direction through the meshing transmission between the worm 7 and the worm gear 6.
[0024] Furthermore, each end of the rotating shaft 4 is fixedly mounted with a lifting cam 10 by high-strength bolts. The lifting cam 10 is made of ductile iron QT400-18 and is milled by a CNC machining center. The two lifting cams 10 on each rotating shaft 4 are arranged in a mirror symmetrical manner. In the initial state, the protrusion of the lifting cam 10 faces downward, and the highest point of the end opposite the protrusion is 50mm lower than the upper surface of the chassis body 1. This design ensures that the plate can be placed stably on the chassis body 1 when the lifting function is not in use.
[0025] Furthermore, the roller 11 is a deep groove ball bearing roller made of polyurethane-coated material, which has good wear resistance and shock absorption. The roller 11 is rotatably connected to the protrusion of the lifting cam 10 through a shaft core in the inner hole, and the two ends of the shaft core are fixed to the lifting cam 10 by snap rings. A U-shaped groove is pre-machined at the protrusion of the lifting cam 10, and the size of the groove is adapted to the shape of the roller 11 to ensure that the roller 11 can rotate flexibly in the groove. During the process of lifting the plate, when the roller 11 contacts the lower surface of the plate, the sliding friction is converted into rolling friction.
[0026] The working principle is as follows: First, in the initial state, the protrusions of the lifting cams 10 on the three rotating shafts 4 are all facing downwards, and the highest point of the end opposite to the protrusion is 50mm lower than the upper surface of the chassis body 1. The plate is placed stably on the chassis body 1. At this time, the plate is in full contact with the chassis body 1, and the chassis body 1 directly bears the weight of the plate.
[0027] When a forklift is needed to remove the sheet metal, the operator rotates the handle 9 mounted on one end of the drive shaft 8, causing the drive shaft 8 to rotate around its own axis. The rotation of the drive shaft 8 drives the worm gear 7 fixedly mounted on it to rotate synchronously. The worm gear 7 meshes with the worm wheel 6 in the groove 5. Due to the special transmission structure of the worm gear 7 and the worm wheel 6, the rotation of the three worm gears 7 can simultaneously drive the three worm wheels 6 to rotate synchronously in the same direction, thereby driving the three rotating shafts 4 fixedly connected to the worm wheels 6 to rotate synchronously in the same direction. The rotation of the rotating shaft 4 causes the lifting cams 10 fixedly mounted at both ends to rotate accordingly. Since the two lifting cams 10 on each rotating shaft 4 are arranged in a mirror symmetrical manner, and the protrusions of the lifting cams 10 are equipped with rollers 11, during the rotation of the lifting cams 10, the rollers 11 first contact the lower surface of the sheet metal, and as the lifting cams 10 continue to rotate, the rollers 11 roll on the lower surface of the sheet metal, gradually lifting the sheet metal.
[0028] During the lifting process, since the baffle plate 3 is located to the side of one of the rotating shafts 4, the plate will move towards the baffle plate 3 under the push of the roller 11 until it contacts the baffle plate 3 and is restricted by the baffle plate 3, thereby achieving precise positioning of the plate on the chassis body 1 and ensuring that the plate is in a position that the forklift fork arm can accurately align.
[0029] When the lifting cam 10 rotates to the position where the protrusion faces upward, the plate is fully lifted. At this time, a sufficient gap is formed between the plate and the chassis body 1, and the forklift fork arm can be easily inserted into the gap to complete the plate picking operation.
[0030] After the goods are picked up, the operator turns the handle 9 in the opposite direction, causing the drive shaft 8 to drive the worm gear 7 to rotate in the opposite direction. This, in turn, drives the rotating shaft 4 and the lifting cam 10 to rotate in the opposite direction through the worm wheel 6, until the lifting cam 10 returns to its initial state, i.e., the protrusion is facing down, ready for the next operation.
[0031] Any technical solution that achieves the above-mentioned technical effects by utilizing the technical solution described in this utility model, or by designing a similar technical solution inspired by the technical solution described in this utility model, falls within the protection scope of this utility model.
