[0002] With the intelligent and automated development of the warehousing and logistics industry, shuttles, as a key component of automated warehousing systems, are constantly expanding their application scenarios, gradually extending from traditional ground racking systems to overhead racking systems. Overhead shuttles, also known as suspended shuttles or rail-mounted shuttles, achieve efficient storage and retrieval of goods in three-dimensional space by running on tracks on top of racks. This design makes full use of the vertical height of the storage space, greatly improving the storage density and operational efficiency of the warehouse. In overhead shuttle systems, the performance of the shuttles directly determines the operating efficiency and reliability of the entire system.

[0003] However, current shuttle vehicles typically require a sling to suspend the cargo during operation. When transporting heavy cargo under suspension, the cargo may sway due to inertia, which can cause significant drag on the shuttle vehicle and lead to deformation, causing considerable inconvenience. Therefore, this applicant proposes a reinforced shuttle vehicle body structure to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0028] Example 1:

[0029] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a reinforced shuttle car body structure includes:

[0030] Shuttle mechanism 1 and hoisting mechanism 2 mounted at the bottom of shuttle mechanism 1;

[0031] The shuttle mechanism 1 includes a frame 11, a reinforcing frame 12 is fixedly installed inside the frame 11, a traveling frame 13 is rotatably installed on the top of the reinforcing frame 12, and a limit groove 18 is opened at the bottom of the frame 11. A positioning wheel 19 is rotatably installed on the inner wall of the limit groove 18.

[0032] The hoisting mechanism 2 includes a winch 25 fixedly installed inside the frame 11. A suspension frame 21 is hoisted at the bottom of the winch 25. Limiting wheels 23 are rotatably installed on both sides of the suspension frame 21. A guide seat 24 corresponding to the limiting wheel 23 is fixedly installed at the top of the suspension frame 21.

[0033] As can be seen from the above, by using the reinforcing frame 12 to support the interior of the frame 11 during use, the structural strength of the frame 11 is improved, which can effectively withstand the weight of the goods and various external forces during operation, reduce structural deformation, and improve the performance. By installing a cargo support frame at the bottom of the suspension frame 21, it is convenient to load the goods. The winch 25 can easily drive the suspension frame 21 to move up and down, which can facilitate the lifting and lowering of the goods.

[0034] By moving the suspension frame 21 upwards, the ramp at the top of the guide seat 24 facilitates the guidance of the positioning wheel 19. The positioning wheel 19, in contact with the guide seat 24, rolls quickly into the space between the limiting wheels 23, allowing for rapid positioning of the suspension frame 21. This enables the suspension frame 21 to accurately and quickly enter the limiting groove 18, allowing it to be integrated with the frame 11. The limiting groove 18 effectively prevents the suspension frame 21 from swaying during cargo suspension and transport, thus preventing the cargo from exerting a significant drag force on the frame 11 and causing deformation. This provides greater convenience for users.

[0035] Depend on Figure 1 It can be seen that a track frame 3 is provided between the walking frame 13, and the walking frame 13 and the track frame 3 are slidably installed through the track wheel 15. Track grooves 32 are provided on both sides of the track wheel 15 for the track wheel 15 to move.

[0036] As can be seen from the above, the gravity of the frame 11 enables the track wheel 15 to be supported and rolled in the track groove 32, making it less likely for the track wheel 15 to fall off the track groove 32. This allows the traveling frame 13 to move along the track frame 3, making it convenient for the frame 11 to carry goods for transportation.

[0037] For details, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a drive gear 16 is rotatably mounted on the top of the track wheel 15 on the walking frame 13, and tooth grooves 31 that mesh with the drive gear 16 are opened on both sides of the track frame 3.

[0038] As can be seen from the above, the rotation of the drive gear 16 enables the drive gear 16 to mesh with the tooth groove 31, which facilitates the movement of the traveling frame 13. At the same time, the limiting effect of the drive gear 16 on both sides of the track frame 3 can prevent the frame 11 from tilting and effectively prevent derailment.

[0039] For details, please refer to Figure 3 As shown, a motor 17 is fixedly installed on the top of the walking frame 13, and the output end of the motor 17 is fixedly connected to the drive gear 16.

[0040] As can be seen from the above, the motor 17 can provide power to the drive gear 16, which can easily drive the drive gear 16 to rotate, and facilitate the movement of the frame 11.

[0041] Example 2:

[0042] refer to Figure 3As shown, the walking frame 13 and the reinforcing frame 12 are rotatably installed together via a pivot 14. The reinforcing frame 12 is integrally formed using high-strength steel.

[0043] As can be seen from the above, the rotating shaft 14 can make the traveling frame 13 rotate at a certain angle. When traveling to the curved position of the track frame 3, the traveling frame 13 can rotate accordingly, which makes it convenient for the frame 11 to make turning operations. The reinforced frame 12, which is integrally formed of high-strength steel, can strengthen the overall strength and rigidity of the frame 11 and reduce the occurrence of deformation.

[0044] refer to Figure 4 As shown, a sling 26 is fixedly installed between the winch 25 and the suspension frame 21, and the suspension frame 21 has a mounting hole 22.

[0045] As can be seen from the above, the winch 25 can easily retract and extend the sling 26, and can easily drive the suspension frame 21 to rise and fall. The mounting holes 22 can be used to easily install the rack for loading goods with bolts, which facilitates the loading and transportation of goods.

[0046] refer to Figure 5 As shown, the top of the limiting groove 18 is provided with a receiving cavity 110, which corresponds to the guide seat 24.

[0047] As can be seen from the above, when the suspension bracket 21 moves upward into the limiting groove 18, the guide seat 24 can be inserted into the receiving cavity 110, so that the suspension bracket 21 can be combined with the limiting groove 18.

[0048] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
