The transmission structure is mounted on the mast structure and connected to the fork structure. The mast structure includes an upper mast and a lower mast, which are foldably connected. The support structure includes legs, which are foldably connected to the lower mast. The fork structure includes forks, which are mounted on a bracket and foldably connected to the bracket. The bracket is connected to the transmission structure.

[0006] Furthermore, the upper gantry is connected to the lower gantry via a first hinge mechanism, and a first pin for fixing the upper and lower gantry is provided between the upper and lower gantry.

[0007] Furthermore, the transmission structure includes a hydraulic system, which is mounted on the lower mast, and a handle is also mounted on the lower mast.

[0008] Furthermore, the fork structure also includes a sleeve, which is connected to the fork via a connecting shaft. The sleeve is mounted on the shaft and can rotate along the shaft. The shaft is mounted on a bracket, and the bracket is also provided with a baffle for supporting the connecting shaft.

[0009] Furthermore, a height sensor and a weight sensor are installed inside the sleeve.

[0010] Furthermore, the support structure also includes a bracket, which is mounted on the lower mast and has a rear wheel mounted on it.

[0011] Furthermore, the support leg is connected to the lower gantry via a second hinge mechanism, a second pin is provided between the lower gantry and the support leg, and a front wheel is also provided on the support leg.

[0012] Furthermore, the lower gantry is also equipped with fixing buckles for securing the support legs.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] Compared with general stackers, the folding structure used in this utility model greatly reduces the space occupied by the device. It features simple extension, quick loading, unloading and movement, and convenient transportation and storage, thus having high military and economic benefits.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0021] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0022] The following detailed description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, outlines some embodiments of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0023] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 A foldable intelligent stacker truck includes a mast structure, a support structure, a transmission structure, and a fork structure.

The support structure includes legs 20, which are foldably connected to the lower mast 5. The fork structure includes forks 16, which are mounted on a bracket 9 and are foldably connected to the bracket 9. The bracket 9 is connected to the transmission structure.

[0024] In this embodiment, the upper frame 1 is connected to the lower frame 5 through the first hinge mechanism 2, and a first pin 3 for fixing the upper frame 1 and the lower frame 5 is also provided between the upper frame 1 and the lower frame 5. In use, the upper frame 1 can be rotated upward to the vertical direction around the first hinge mechanism 2, and the upper frame 1 can be fixed to the lower frame 5 through the first pin 3.

[0025] In this embodiment, the transmission structure includes a hydraulic system 6, which is mounted on the lower mast 5. The lower mast 5 also has a handle 4, allowing for rapid transfer of the stacker truck. Furthermore, the hydraulic system 6 mainly includes a hydraulic cylinder, which drives the forks 16 to move up and down.

[0026] In this embodiment, the fork structure further includes a sleeve 8, which is connected to the fork 16 via a connecting shaft 15. The sleeve 8 is mounted on a shaft 7 and can rotate along the shaft 7. The shaft 7 is mounted on a bracket 9, and the bracket 9 is also provided with a baffle 12 for supporting the connecting shaft 15. In use, the fork 16 can be rotated to a forward horizontal position via the sleeve 8 around the shaft 7. At this time, the position of the fork 16 can be fixed by the baffle 12.

In use, the support leg 20 can be rotated around the second hinge mechanism 18, and after being laid flat, it can be fixed to the lower gantry 5 via the second pin 17.

[0029] In use, the support leg 20 is first rotated around the second hinge mechanism 18 and laid flat, then fixed to the lower mast 5 by the second pin 17. Next, the forks 16 are rotated around the shaft 7 via the sleeve 8 to a horizontal position. At this point, the position of the forks 16 can be fixed by the baffle 12. Finally, the upper mast 1 is rotated upwards around the first hinge mechanism 2 to a vertical position and fixed to the lower mast 5 by the first pin 3. The working structure of this invention is as follows. Figure 1 As shown in Figure 2, the folded structure is as shown in Figure 3.
