Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of forklift parking devices, specifically a fixed-point positioning parking device for forklifts to catch leaking engine oil. Background Technology

[0002] Forklifts are key equipment in the industrial logistics field, mainly used for loading, unloading, stacking and short-distance transportation of palletized goods. They play an irreplaceable role in warehousing logistics, manufacturing, ports, railway stations and other scenarios.

[0003] In the prior art, Chinese Patent No. CN218786496U discloses a forklift parking platform, including a fixed base, an mounting plate mounted on the upper surface of the fixed base, fixing bolts and support rods mounted on the upper surface of the mounting plate, a fixing block mounted on one side of the support rod, and a rotating shaft mounted on one side of the fixing block. The rotating shaft and the fixing block are rotatably engaged. A connecting gear and a power gear are mounted on the upper surface of the rotating shaft, and a connecting belt is mounted on the upper surface of the connecting gear. The connecting gear and the connecting belt are rotatably engaged. By installing a rotating motor, a lifting plate, and a rotating shaft, the rotating motor and the connecting shaft are rotatably engaged, controlling the rotation of the rotating motor to drive the rotating shaft to rotate via the power belt. At the same time, the supporting shaft on one side of the rotating shaft is rotated, causing the rotating rope to move the lifting plate up and down. In use, the forklift is controlled to be parked on the lifting plate, and then the rotating motor is controlled to lower the lifting plate, placing the forklift below the ground, which can save parking space.

[0004] Based on the above information, forklifts are prone to leaking engine oil when parked. The leaked oil drips onto the parking platform, which not only pollutes the working environment but also easily causes slippage, leading to safety accidents and increasing cleaning costs. Moreover, existing forklift parking platforms are mostly flat designs, lacking anti-slip and positioning functions, which can easily cause vehicles to slide and roll away. Therefore, we propose a fixed-point positioning parking device for forklifts to catch leaking engine oil. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a fixed-point positioning and parking device for forklifts to catch leaking engine oil, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that forklifts are prone to leaking engine oil when parked. The leaked engine oil drips onto the parking platform surface, which not only pollutes the working environment, but also easily causes slippage, leading to safety accidents and increasing cleaning costs. Moreover, existing forklift parking platforms are mostly flat designs, lacking anti-slip and positioning functions, which easily leads to problems such as vehicle sliding and rollaway.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a fixed-point positioning and parking device for forklift oil leakage, comprising a parking steel plate, a bearing base at the bottom of the parking steel plate, an mounting block fixedly installed on the outer wall of the bearing base, a pad at the end of the parking steel plate, a limit baffle fixedly installed on the outer wall of the parking steel plate, a limit groove formed on the outer wall of the parking steel plate, an infrared sensor fixedly installed at the end of the parking steel plate, an audible and visual alarm fixedly installed on the outer wall of the bearing base, and a recycling mechanism at the bottom of the parking steel plate for receiving forklift oil leakage.

[0007] Furthermore, the bearing base is made of I-beam steel, and two sets of bearing bases are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the parking steel plate, and the distance between the two sets of bearing bases is the same as the wheel track of the forklift.

[0008] Furthermore, two sets of mounting blocks are symmetrically arranged on the side wall of the bearing base, and the mounting blocks are connected to the mounting base by bolts.

[0009] Furthermore, the pad is located at the rear of the parking steel plate, and the top of the pad is designed to form an 8° angle with the ground. The width of the pad is the same as the width of the parking steel plate, and both the pad and the outer wall of the parking steel plate are provided with anti-slip texture.

[0010] Furthermore, the limiting baffle is located at the end of the parking steel plate away from the pad block, and two sets of limiting baffles are symmetrically arranged. The distance between the two sets of limiting baffles is the same as the wheel track of the forklift. The limiting baffle is made of high-strength alloy steel.

[0011] Furthermore, two sets of limiting grooves are symmetrically provided at the end of the parking steel plate near the limiting baffle, and the corners of the limiting grooves are in contact with the outer wall of the forklift's front wheel for initial positioning of the forklift.

[0012] Furthermore, the recycling mechanism includes an oil receiving tray set at the bottom of the parking steel plate, and a caster wheel is fixedly installed at the bottom of the oil receiving tray. A liquid level sensor is provided on the outer wall of the oil receiving tray, and an oil receiving port is opened on the outer wall of the parking steel plate.

[0013] Furthermore, the oil inlet has a grid-like design and is located in the middle of the parking steel plate. The oil receiving tray is located below the oil inlet, and two sets of casters are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the oil receiving tray.

[0014] Furthermore, both the liquid level sensor and the infrared sensor are electrically connected to the audible and visual alarm, and the audible and visual alarm is electrically connected to an external control platform.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0016] 1. This is a fixed-point parking device for forklifts to catch leaking engine oil. Through a recycling mechanism, it achieves efficient prevention and convenient management of engine oil pollution. The oil receiving tray at the bottom of the parking steel plate can collect leaked engine oil during forklift parking in real time, avoiding direct dripping of oil onto the ground, which would cause environmental pollution and slippage hazards. The oil inlet adopts a mesh design, which can ensure that the engine oil flows smoothly into the oil receiving tray and effectively block debris from entering, improving the reliability of the recycling system. The universal wheels at the bottom of the oil receiving tray support its flexible pulling, which is convenient for staff to clean the waste oil regularly. This significantly reduces the cost of manual cleaning and eliminates the environmental risks and safety hazards caused by engine oil leakage from the source.

[0017] 2. The pads at the ends of the parking steel plates feature a sloping design and an anti-slip textured surface. Combined with the forklift's own weight, this guides the wheels smoothly into the parking area. The symmetrically arranged high-strength alloy steel limiting baffles and limiting grooves at the front form a double limiting mechanism. The former physically prevents the forklift from over-parking, while the latter utilizes the weight of the wheels sinking into the grooves to achieve initial positioning, ensuring that the forklift is in a precise parking position both laterally and longitudinally. In addition, the anti-slip textured design of the pads and parking steel plates further enhances tire friction, effectively suppressing slippage and reducing the risk of forklift collisions. This also makes the site space planning more orderly and improves the overall utilization rate of the storage or production area.

[0018] 3. Infrared sensors monitor in real time whether forklifts enter the designated parking area and feed the signal back to the control system. The liquid level sensor built into the oil pan continuously tracks the oil level. When the preset threshold is reached, it immediately triggers the audible and visual alarm via electrical connection, alerting staff to take action with a dual warning of bright red light and buzzer sound. At the same time, the linkage mechanism between the audible and visual alarm and the external control platform can synchronize abnormal information to the management terminal, significantly reducing the frequency of manual inspections and improving the timeliness and accuracy of abnormal situation handling, which is in line with the modern industrial trend of intelligent and unmanned management.

[0026] 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.

[0027] Example 1: Please refer to Figure 1-3 This utility model provides the following technical solution: a fixed-point positioning and parking device for forklift oil leakage, including a parking steel plate 1, a bearing base 2 at the bottom of the parking steel plate 1, and an mounting block 201 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the bearing base 2, a pad 3 at the end of the parking steel plate 1, a limit baffle 5 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the parking steel plate 1, a limit groove 101 formed on the outer wall of the parking steel plate 1, an infrared sensor 6 fixedly installed at the end of the parking steel plate 1, and an audible and visual alarm 9 fixedly installed on the outer wall of the bearing base 2. The bearing base 2 is made of I-beam steel, and two sets of bearing base 2 are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the parking steel plate 1, with the distance between the two sets of bearing base 2 being the same as the wheel track of the forklift. The mounting block 201 is located on the bearing base... Two sets of mounting blocks 201 are symmetrically arranged on the side wall of the seat 2, and the mounting blocks 201 are connected to the mounting blocks by bolts. The pad block 3 is located at the rear of the parking steel plate 1, and the top of the pad block 3 is designed to form an 8° angle with the ground. The width of the pad block 3 is the same as the width of the parking steel plate 1. The outer walls of the pad block 3 and the parking steel plate 1 are provided with anti-slip texture 4. The limiting baffle 5 is located at the end of the parking steel plate 1 away from the pad block 3, and two sets of limiting baffle 5 are symmetrically arranged. The distance between the two sets of limiting baffle 5 is the same as the wheel track of the forklift. The limiting baffle 5 is made of high-strength alloy steel. Two sets of limiting grooves 101 are symmetrically opened at the end of the parking steel plate 1 near the limiting baffle 5, and the corners of the limiting grooves 101 fit against the outer wall of the forklift's front wheel for initial positioning of the forklift.

[0028] When the forklift needs to be parked, the driver manipulates the forklift to smoothly drive into the pad 3 at the rear of the parking steel plate 1. The tilt angle of the pad 3 and the anti-slip pattern 4 work together to reduce the resistance of the forklift going up and down the slope, and to prevent slippage by increasing the friction between the tire and the contact surface. After the front wheels of the forklift enter the parking steel plate 1, they first embed into the limiting groove 101 and use the weight of the forklift to achieve initial positioning to prevent the vehicle from sliding laterally. At the same time, the forklift continues to move forward until the front wheels touch the limiting baffle 5, and achieves longitudinal limitation through physical blocking to ensure that the forklift is accurately parked in the preset area.

[0029] Infrared sensor 6 continuously monitors whether the forklift enters the designated parking area. When the forklift triggers the infrared sensing signal, the signal is transmitted to the external control platform via electrical connection to confirm that the forklift has started parking operations. If the forklift does not fully enter or deviates from the parking area, the infrared sensor 6 is not triggered, and the system can issue a warning through the audible and visual alarm 9 to remind the driver to adjust the position.

[0030] Example 2: Please refer to Figure 4-6 Based on Embodiment 1, a recycling mechanism is also disclosed, the specific structure of which is as follows: The bottom of the parking steel plate 1 is provided with a recycling mechanism for receiving oil leaked from the forklift. The recycling mechanism includes an oil receiving tray 7 set at the bottom of the parking steel plate 1, and a caster wheel 701 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the oil receiving tray 7. A liquid level sensor 8 is provided on the outer wall of the oil receiving tray 7. An oil inlet 102 is opened on the outer wall of the parking steel plate 1. The oil inlet 102 is designed in a grid pattern and is located in the middle of the parking steel plate 1. The oil receiving tray 7 is located below the oil inlet 102. Two sets of caster wheels 701 are symmetrically arranged at the bottom of the oil receiving tray 7. The liquid level sensor 8 and the infrared sensor 6 are both electrically connected to the audible and visual alarm 9, and the audible and visual alarm 9 is electrically connected to the external control platform.

[0031] If the forklift leaks oil during parking, the oil flows into the bottom oil collection tray 7 along the oil inlet 102 on the surface of the parking steel plate 1. The mesh-like oil inlet 102 can filter impurities and prevent blockage, ensuring smooth oil recovery. The universal wheels 701 at the bottom of the oil collection tray 7 support its front and rear pulling. When it is necessary to clean up waste oil, the staff can unlock the self-locking mechanism of the universal wheels 701 to easily pull out the oil collection tray 7. After the waste oil collection is completed, it is pushed back to its original position and locked, realizing full-process control of oil pollution.

[0032] The level sensor 8 on the outer wall of the oil tray 7 monitors the oil level in real time and synchronizes the data to the control platform. When the oil level reaches the preset warning level, the level sensor 8 sends a signal to the audible and visual alarm 9, triggering a bright red flashing light and a buzzer alarm to remind staff to replace or clean the oil tray 7 in time. At the same time, the linkage mechanism between the audible and visual alarm 9 and the control platform can synchronize the alarm information to the plant monitoring center or the mobile terminal of the management personnel, realizing remote monitoring and rapid response to abnormal situations, greatly improving the automation level of forklift parking management, reducing manual intervention, and ensuring operational safety and environmental cleanliness.
