Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of conveying device technology, and in particular to a toothed fork roller conveyor. Background Technology

[0002] Forklifts are core material handling equipment in industrial logistics and warehousing, widely used for loading, unloading, stacking, and short-distance transportation. With the development of intelligent logistics and automated warehousing, the functional requirements for forklifts are increasing, especially for real-time monitoring of cargo weight. For example, in logistics sorting, inventory management, or billing scenarios, it is necessary to quickly obtain cargo weight information to improve operational efficiency and reduce manual intervention.

[0003] Traditional toothed fork roller conveyors typically do not have integrated weighing functions. After the goods are transported to the forklift, they need to be transferred to a separate weighbridge or electronic scale for weighing. This is inefficient, adds extra operating steps, and is prone to damage to goods or data errors due to multiple handling.

[0004] The existing solution is to install load cells on the bottom of the forklift, but this has problems such as complex installation, interference with forklift loading, and difficult maintenance. For example, installing load cells on the bottom of the forklift requires modifying the original forklift structure, raising the intermediate roller conveyor structure and affecting the pallet jack's loading; the sensors are susceptible to vibration and impact from the forklift, leading to decreased accuracy or shortened lifespan; and the limited space at the bottom makes quick installation and removal difficult.

[0035] Combination Figures 1 to 3 A toothed fork roller conveyor includes a drive module 10, a frame 20, and a weighing module 30.

[0036] The frame 20 includes a main frame 21, a middle frame 22, and side frames 23. The main frame 21, middle frame 22, and side frames 23 constitute the machine body. The main frame 21 is equipped with drive rollers. The middle frame 22 is equipped with multiple parallel-arranged first conveyor rollers 24. The side frames 23 are equipped with multiple parallel-arranged second conveyor rollers 25.

[0037] The drive module 10 is located on one side of the frame 20. The drive module 10 includes a drive source, a drive sprocket connected to the output end of the drive source, multiple driven sprockets, a first chain, and a second chain. Driven sprockets are provided at both ends of the transmission roller. A driven sprocket is provided at one end of the first conveying roller 24. A driven sprocket is provided at one end of the second conveying roller 25. The first chain meshes with the drive sprocket, the driven sprocket at one end of the transmission roller, and the driven sprocket of the first conveying roller 24. The second chain meshes with the drive sprocket, the driven sprocket at the other end of the transmission roller, and the driven sprocket of the second conveying roller 25. The drive source can be a servo motor and a reducer; the output end of the servo motor is connected to the input end of the reducer, and the output end of the reducer is connected to the drive sprocket. The drive source is started, which drives the drive sprocket to rotate. The drive sprocket transmits power to the driven sprocket at one end of the drive roller and the driven sprocket of the first conveyor roller 24 through the first chain. The drive roller transmits power to the driven sprocket of the second conveyor roller 25 through the second chain, so as to drive the second conveyor roller 25 to rotate.

[0038] Furthermore, the length of the first conveyor roller 24 is shorter than the length of the second conveyor roller 25. This design provides sufficient space for the forks of the toothed roller conveyor, preventing collisions between the forks and the rollers, thus achieving smoother and more labor-saving cargo handling. Simultaneously, this design better accommodates palletized goods of different shapes and sizes. The shorter middle roller reduces cargo swaying during transport, while the longer rollers on both sides provide more stable support, ensuring smooth cargo transport.

[0039] The weighing module 30 and the frame 20 are fixedly connected. Figure 4 and Figure 5 The weighing module 30 includes a base 31, a weighing unit 32, and a support member 33. The base 31 supports the weighing unit 32 and raises the machine body to a preset height. At least a portion of the support member 33 is fixedly connected to the side of the machine body, and at least a portion of the support member 33 is fixedly connected to the weighing module 30. Specifically, the support member 33 includes a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion that are bent. The first connecting portion is fixedly connected to the side of the side frame 23; the second connecting portion is fixedly connected to the weighing module 30. Fastening holes are provided on the first connecting portion, the second connecting portion, and the side of the side frame 23, and fasteners such as bolts are used to fix the first connecting portion to the side of the side frame 23 and the second connecting portion to the weighing module 30.

[0040] Furthermore, to ensure that pallets or goods can accurately enter and leave the conveyor during the conveying process and avoid deviation, the toothed fork roller conveyor also includes a guide module 40 located on the side of the machine body or at the feed end of the frame 20.

[0041] Specifically, the guiding module 40 includes a guide plate 41 located on the side of the machine body and a guide block located at the feed end of the frame 20. The first guide block 42 is located at the feed end of the central frame 22, and the second guide block 43 is located at the feed end of the side frame 23. Figure 1 As shown, the first guide block 42 and the second guide block 43 have different shapes. The different shapes of the guide blocks can better match the bottom structure of the pallet with the conveyor, ensuring that the pallet can enter the conveyor smoothly and steadily, and avoiding jamming or deviation caused by the mismatch of the pallet shape.

[0042] The installation principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0043] Four bases 31 are fixed to the ground with chemical bolts. Four weighing units 32 are respectively connected and fixed to the four bases 31 with bolts. Four support members 33 are connected and fixed to the four corners of the frame 20 with bolts. Finally, the four support members 33 are connected to the four weighing units 32 one by one with bolts.

[0044] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0045] The external weighing module 30 consists of a base 31, a weighing unit 32, and a support 33. The four bases 31 are fixed to the ground with chemical bolts, and the four weighing units 32 are respectively fixed to the four bases 31 with bolts. The four support 33 are fixed to the four corners of the frame 20 with bolts. Finally, the four support 33 are connected to the four weighing units 32 one by one with bolts. In this way, the weighing data can be recorded when the goods are transported to the forklift roller conveyor. Moreover, the external weighing module 30 does not interfere with the forklift operation and can also realize dynamic weighing.
