Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of forklift component technology, specifically a forklift component for a loader. Background Technology

[0002] Loaders are mainly used for shoveling and loading bulk materials such as soil, sand, gravel, lime, and coal. They are widely used in earthmoving construction in highways, railways, and buildings. By replacing the loaders with different auxiliary working devices, they can also be used for bulldozing, lifting, and loading and unloading other materials such as timber. For example, by replacing the loaders with forklift components, the loaders can use the forks of the forklift components to move materials, thus achieving multiple uses for one machine.

[0003] When assembling forklift components onto a loader, a plug-in shaft is typically used to connect the components to the loader. However, during installation, due to the relatively heavy weight of the forklift components, it is usually necessary to adjust the position of the loader to align the forklift components with the loader. However, since there is a certain distance between the loader cab and the installation location, and the installation location may have some obstruction to the view, aligning the loader and forklift components is relatively troublesome and not conducive to installing the forklift components onto the loader. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a forklift assembly for a loader to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A forklift assembly for a loader includes a fork module. The fork module is provided with an adjustment module and two positioning modules. The fork module includes a fixed frame and two fork rods. A fixed rod that is slidably connected to the two fork rods is fixedly connected inside the fixed frame. Four connecting plates and two connecting plates are fixedly connected to the fixed frame. Two hook seats are fixedly connected to the top of the fixed frame. The adjustment module includes an adjustment frame and a hooking mechanism. The hooking mechanism is disposed inside the adjustment frame. Two support blocks are fixedly connected to the bottom of the adjustment frame. Two universal wheels are fixedly connected to the support blocks. The hooking mechanism can hook with the two hook seats. The four connecting plates are arranged in pairs. The two pairs of connecting plates are respectively disposed on the sides of the fixed frame. The two connecting plates are located between the two pairs of connecting plates. The sides of the fork rods are in contact with the bottom side of the fixed frame.

[0007] Furthermore, the hooking mechanism includes a positioning plate and two hook blocks;

[0008] Both hook blocks are fixedly connected to the bottom of the positioning plate. The bottom end of the hook block contacts the interior of the adjacent hook seat. Both the hook block and the hook seat are L-shaped. The bottom horizontal section of the hook block abuts against the top horizontal section of the hook seat.

[0009] Furthermore, the adjusting frame is rotatably connected to an adjusting screw that is screwed into the positioning plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the bottom end of the adjusting screw is rotatably connected to a limiting rod, the limiting rod is fixedly connected to two round rods that are fixedly connected to the adjusting frame, the positioning plate is slidably connected to the two round rods, and the limiting rod is located at the bottom of the positioning plate.

[0011] Preferably, the hook seat has a positioning groove, and the hook block is fixedly connected to a positioning block that is slidably connected to the positioning groove. Both the positioning groove and the positioning block are conical.

[0012] Furthermore, the positioning module includes a connecting seat, a positioning ring, and a plug-in rod;

[0013] A positioning ring is disposed on one side of the connecting seat, and the positioning ring is fixedly connected to two sliding rods that are slidably connected to the connecting seat;

[0014] The plug rod is fixedly connected to the positioning ring.

[0015] Furthermore, the fixed frame is provided with two fixed rings fixedly connected to the adjacent connecting plate, the fixed rings are provided with limit grooves, and the connecting seat is fixedly connected with two limit blocks that are slidably connected to the inner side of the adjacent limit groove. The two fixed rings are respectively located on the two outer connecting plates, and the connecting seat is sleeved on the side of the corresponding fixed ring.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0017] The universal wheels are fixedly connected to the support block. The hook mechanism can hook the hook seat, so that the adjustment frame can be supported by the hook mechanism. At this time, the adjustment frame can be pushed to move and adjust the position of the fork module so that the mounting holes on the connecting plate 1 are aligned with the mounting holes of the loader. The position of the fork module can be adjusted by adjusting the adjustment module. During the adjustment process, the alignment of the connecting plate 1 with the loader can be checked in time, which is conducive to the quick alignment of the connecting plate 1 with the loader and facilitates the installation of the fork module on the loader.

[0018] By fixing the connector rod on the positioning ring, the connector rod can be inserted into the mounting hole of the loader, and the connecting seat can be sleeved on the fixing ring. During the adjustment of the height of the fork module, when the limiting block contacts the inner wall of the corresponding limiting groove, the sliding rod will be in a horizontal state, that is, the first connecting plate and the mounting hole on the loader are at the same height. At this time, the positioning module can be removed from the first connecting plate and the loader. After adjusting the module to drive the fork module to move horizontally, so that the first connecting plate and the mounting hole on the loader are roughly aligned, the connector rod can be inserted into the mounting hole of the first connecting plate and the loader. Through the conical end of the connector rod, the first connecting plate can be moved closer to the mounting hole of the loader, thereby aligning the mounting holes of the first connecting plate and the loader, which facilitates the subsequent installation of the fork module on the loader.

Detailed Implementation

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-4 In this embodiment of the present invention, a forklift assembly for a loader includes a fork module 100. The fork module 100 is provided with an adjustment module 200 and two positioning modules 300. The fork module 100 includes a fixed frame 110 and two fork rods 120. A fixed rod 111 is fixedly connected inside the fixed frame 110 and slidably connected to the two fork rods 120. The side of the fork rod 120 contacts the bottom side of the fixed frame 110. The fixed rod 111 can limit the position of the fork rod 120. The fork rod 120 can slide along the fixed rod 111 to adjust the distance between the two fork rods 120 as needed. The fixed frame 110 is fixedly connected to... There are four connecting plates 130 and two connecting plates 140. The top of the fixed frame 110 is fixedly connected to two hook seats 160. The adjustment module 200 includes an adjustment frame 210 and a hooking mechanism 220. The hooking mechanism 220 is located inside the adjustment frame 210 and can be hooked to the two hook seats 160. The bottom of the adjustment frame 210 is fixedly connected to two support blocks 211. The support blocks 211 are fixedly connected to two casters 212. The four connecting plates 130 are arranged in pairs. The two sets of connecting plates 130 are respectively arranged on both sides of the fixed frame 110. The two connecting plates 140 are located between the two sets of connecting plates 130.

[0027] Specifically, the hook mechanism 220 can hook the hook seat 160, allowing the adjusting frame 210 to support the fixed frame 110 via the hook mechanism 220. At this time, the adjusting frame 210 can be directly pushed to move, causing the caster wheel 212 to roll on the ground. Then, the position of the fork module 100 can be adjusted via the adjusting module 200, aligning the mounting holes on the connecting plate 130 with the mounting holes on the loader. During the adjustment process, the alignment of the connecting plate 130 with the loader can be checked in time, which is beneficial for the quick alignment of the connecting plate 130 with the loader and facilitates the installation of the fork module 100 on the loader. After the adjustment is completed, the hook mechanism 220 can be disengaged from the hook seat 160, and then the adjusting module 200 can be removed from the fork module 100. Example

[0028] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the hooking mechanism 220 includes a positioning plate 221 and two hook blocks 222;

[0029] Both hook blocks 222 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the positioning plate 221. The bottom end of the hook block 222 contacts the interior of the adjacent hook seat 160. Both the hook block 222 and the hook seat 160 are L-shaped. The bottom horizontal section of the hook block 222 abuts against the top horizontal section of the hook seat 160. The hook seat 160 is provided with a positioning groove 161. The hook block 222 is fixedly connected to a positioning block 223 that is slidably connected to the positioning groove 161. Both the positioning groove 161 and the positioning block 223 are conical. The positioning plate 221 can support the hook seat 160 through the hook block 222, and then support the fork module 100 through the hooking mechanism 220.

[0030] In practice, the position of the movable adjustment module 200 is adjusted so that the bottom end of the hook block 222 is inserted into the hook seat 160. Then, the hooking mechanism 220 can be moved upward, and the hook block 222 drives the positioning block 223 to move upward, thereby allowing the positioning block 223 to be inserted into the positioning groove 161, so that the hook seat 160 is connected to the hook block 222. The positioning block 223 and the positioning groove 161 prevent the hook seat 160 from rotating or moving relative to the hook block 222.

[0031] The length of the positioning block 223 can be increased as needed to improve the stability of the connection between the hook seat 160 and the hook block 222.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the adjusting frame 210 is rotatably connected to an adjusting screw 230 that is screwed into the positioning plate 221. The bottom end of the adjusting screw 230 is positioned by a limiting rod 240. The bottom end of the adjusting screw 230 is rotatably connected to the limiting rod 240. The limiting rod 240 is fixedly connected to two round rods 241 that are fixedly connected to the adjusting frame 210. The positioning plate 221 is slidably connected to the two round rods 241. The positioning plate 221 can move up or down along the round rods 241. The adjusting frame 210 can limit the position of the limiting rod 240 by the two round rods 241. The limiting rod 240 is located at the bottom of the positioning plate 221.

[0033] In practice, the adjusting screw 230 can limit the height of the positioning plate 221, thereby limiting the height of the hook block 222. After the positioning block 223 is roughly aligned with the positioning groove 161, the adjusting screw 230 can be rotated. Since the round rod 241 prevents the positioning plate 221 from rotating, the positioning plate 221 can be moved upward along the adjusting screw 230, causing the hook block 222 to drive the positioning block 223 upward, inserting the positioning block 223 into the positioning groove 161. The hook block 222 hooks the hook seat 160, and then the adjusting screw 230 can continue to rotate, causing the hook block 222 to continue to move upward, thereby causing the hook block 222 to drive the fixed frame 110 upward through the hook seat 160, so that the fork 120 is separated from the ground, making it easier to adjust the position of the fork module 100 through the adjusting module 200.

[0034] A rectangular slot can be made at the top of the adjusting screw 230, and an L-shaped rod can be set at the top of the adjusting screw 230, with the bottom end of the L-shaped rod being rectangular. This allows the bottom end of the L-shaped rod to be inserted into the rectangular slot, and then the adjusting screw 230 can be rotated by pulling the L-shaped rod, thereby adjusting the height of the hooking mechanism 220 and detaching the fork module 100 from the ground. Alternatively, a motor frame can be set on the top surface of the adjusting frame 210, and a power motor can be set on the motor frame, so that the output end of the power motor is connected to the top of the adjusting screw 230 for transmission. The power motor can directly drive the adjusting screw 230 to rotate, thereby adjusting the height of the hooking mechanism 220. Example

[0035] Based on Example 1, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the positioning module 300 includes a connecting seat 310, a positioning ring 320, and a plug-in rod 330;

[0036] A positioning ring 320 is disposed on one side of the connecting seat 310. The positioning ring 320 is fixedly connected to two sliding rods 321 that are slidably connected to the connecting seat 310. The sliding rods 321 can slide along the inside of the connecting seat 310. The positioning ring 320 is connected to the connecting seat 310 through the sliding rods 321. A plug rod 330 is fixedly connected to the positioning ring 320. The end of the plug rod 330 away from the positioning ring 320 is tapered. The fixing frame 110 is provided with two fixing rings 150 that are fixedly connected to the adjacent connecting plate 130. The fixing ring 150 has a limit groove 151. The connecting seat 310 is fixedly connected to two limit blocks 311 that are slidably connected to the inner side of the adjacent limit groove 151. The two fixing rings 150 are respectively located on the two outer connecting plates 130. The connecting seat 310 is sleeved on the side of the corresponding fixing ring 150.

[0037] In specific implementation, after moving the fork module 100 closer to the loader via the adjustment module 200, the connector rod 330 can be inserted into the mounting hole of the loader, and the connecting seat 310 can be fitted onto the fixing ring 150. Then, the adjusting screw 230 can be rotated to adjust the height of the hook mechanism 220 and the fork module 100. At this time, the fixing ring 150 will drive the connecting seat 310 to move upward, changing the angle of the sliding rod 321 and causing the connecting seat 310 to rotate relative to the fixing ring 150. This causes the limiting block 311 to rotate within the limiting groove 151. After the limiting block 311 contacts the inner wall of the corresponding limiting groove 151, the sliding rod 321 will be in a horizontal state, and the inner side axis of the connecting seat 310 and the inner side axis of the positioning ring 320 will be at the same height, i.e., the connecting plate 13 When the mounting holes on the loader and the connecting plate 130 are at the same height, the positioning module 300 can be removed from the connecting plate 130 and the loader. Then, the fork module 100 can be moved horizontally by the adjusting module 200 to roughly align the connecting plate 130 with the mounting holes on the loader. The connector rod 330 can then be inserted into the fixing ring 150 and gradually inserted into the mounting holes of the connecting plate 130 and the loader. Through the tapered end of the connector rod 330, the connecting plate 130 can be moved closer to the mounting holes of the loader, aligning the mounting holes of the connecting plate 130 and the loader. The connector rod 330 can then be removed, and the connecting plate 130 can be installed on the loader through the connector shaft. The connecting plate 140 can also be connected to the loader to facilitate the installation of the fork module 100 on the loader.

[0038] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0039] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
