Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of logistics equipment, and more precisely to a transmission component of a clamping telescopic fork. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous increase in logistics freight volume, the requirements for cargo storage density and transportation efficiency in this field are also constantly increasing. Correspondingly, the adoption rate of automated storage and retrieval systems (AS / RS) and automated sorting centers is also increasing. Telescopic forks are an important piece of equipment in AS / RS, enabling precise and efficient storage, retrieval, or transfer of goods from racks such as high-bay racks and flow racks.

[0003] Traditional telescopic forks typically extend from the bottom of the cargo to lift it, thus enabling loading and unloading. However, there is significant room for improvement in stability and safety. Clamping telescopic forks, a new type of fork combining telescopic and clamping functions, can firmly grip cargo through a clamping device, ensuring stability and safety during handling. Furthermore, the demand for forks designed for handling toy boxes has been increasing in recent years, and clamping telescopic forks are crucial handling equipment for toy boxes; therefore, the demand for clamping telescopic forks is also continuously growing.

[0004] The assembly of clamp-type telescopic forks is inefficient due to the numerous motor drive components and complex, cumbersome installation process. The gears on the drive shaft of the clamp-type telescopic fork transmit significant force, making them prone to wear after prolonged use and requiring replacement. Furthermore, the motor itself requires regular maintenance, often necessitating disassembly and replacement during subsequent maintenance, making the disassembly and assembly process quite troublesome.

[0005] In summary, there is a need in this field for a technical solution that can reduce the difficulty of assembling clamp-type telescopic forks, improve production efficiency, and facilitate maintenance and replacement. Utility Model Content
