Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of cargo auxiliary loading equipment, and in particular to a fruit loading auxiliary loading device. Background Technology

[0002] When transporting fruits, they are generally packaged in cardboard boxes or plastic crates. Some fruits that are easily damaged by compression or are greatly affected by ambient temperature are sealed and protected with foam boxes. During loading, they are either manually stacked onto a handcart, transferred to the side of the truck bed, and then manually moved onto the truck bed and neatly arranged; or the boxes are automatically transported into the truck bed by a conveyor belt, and then manually stacked one by one inside the truck bed. It can be seen that when the fruit boxes are slightly larger, both methods require handling and transferring one box before and after loading. The former method involves a large amount of manual work, low efficiency, and high labor intensity. The latter method requires manual placement of fruit boxes onto a conveyor belt, and then the automatic loading is carried out by the conveyor belt. It only replaces the lifting work of fruit boxes, but after the individual boxes enter the truck bed, they still need to be moved and stacked one by one. Therefore, it only improves loading efficiency and reduces labor intensity to a certain extent, but the work efficiency and labor intensity of the fruit box stacking stage in the truck bed are not significantly improved.

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the current loading and conveying equipment so that it can better cooperate with other auxiliary tools to eliminate the above-mentioned defects. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. In the following detailed description, only certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention are described by way of illustration. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art will recognize that various modifications can be made to the described embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the drawings and description are illustrative in nature and not intended to limit the scope of the claims.

[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the fruit loading auxiliary device is used in conjunction with a handcart 1, such as a trolley, to load and stack fruit boxes containing fruits in bulk onto a transport vehicle. The fruit boxes are not limited to box or basket structures; any form of packaging that can be loaded onto the transport vehicle in bulk using the handcart 1 is included.

[0023] The fruit loading assistance device includes a frame 2, on which a loading area 3 is provided to facilitate the loading of the handcart 1 and is set at an angle. The frame 2 forms a bridge between the transport vehicle compartment and the ground. When in use, the handcart 1 is placed in the loading area 3, which can be easily transferred from the ground to the transport vehicle compartment. Through conventional operation, the fruit boxes can be unloaded from the handcart 1 and stacked in the compartment in one go.

[0024] Specifically, the frame 2 includes at least a ramp 201 that slopes upwards from the ground to facilitate the transition of the height difference between the transport vehicle's cargo compartment and the ground. The frame 2 also includes a transition frame 202 fixedly connected to the upper end of the ramp 201. The transition frame 202 is used to dock with the transport vehicle, allowing for the smooth and stable transfer of the handcart 1 from the frame 2 into the transport vehicle's cargo compartment when it reaches the height of the cargo compartment. The docking of the transition frame 202 with the transport vehicle can be achieved by placing the transition frame 202 against the edge of the transport vehicle's cargo compartment. The ramp 201 and the transition frame 202 each include several beams connected longitudinally and transversely. A support mesh plate 203 is fixedly installed on the top surface of each beam. The beams and the support mesh plate 203 work together to reduce the overall weight of the frame 2 to a certain extent. Additionally, wheels 4 are installed at the bottom of the frame 2 for easy movement and relocation, thus facilitating the transfer of the frame 2 to different loading locations. A handle 5 can also be installed on the frame 2 to facilitate pushing and pulling operations.

[0025] Transition plates 6 are provided at one or / and both ends of the frame 2 to facilitate the movement of the handcart 1 up and down, and the transition plates 6 are respectively inclined outward from the frame 2. In this embodiment, the transition plates 6 are respectively provided at the end of the ramp 201 that contacts the ground and at the end of the transition frame 202 that contacts the transport vehicle compartment, which can provide certain guidance and smooth transition for the handcart 1 to move up and down the frame 2.

[0026] The loading area 3 can also serve as the unloading area, allowing the handcart 1 to be unloaded from the vehicle after unloading. However, when using this area to unload, extra caution is required due to the presence of other components to prevent them from colliding with the bottom of the handcart 1, which could obstruct unloading and pose a safety hazard. Therefore, a loading area 7 with sufficient space can be reserved on one side of the frame 2, located within the loading area 3. This would increase the width of the frame 2, allowing the handcart 1 to descend unobstructed and safely from the transport vehicle to the ground.

[0027] In this embodiment, a drive motor 8 is fixedly installed on the frame 2. A vehicle body conveying device for transferring the handcart 1 is connected to the drive motor 8. The vehicle body conveying device is located in the loading area 3, and a vehicle body clamping plate 9 for locking the handcart 1 is arranged and installed on the vehicle body conveying device. The transition frame 202 is relatively tall, so the installation space formed below it is also relatively large. The drive motor 8 can be fixedly installed at the bottom of the transition frame 202 via the motor frame 2. Driven by the drive motor 8, the handcart 1 can be transferred from the ground to the transport vehicle along the frame 2 through the cooperation of the vehicle body clamping plate 9 and the vehicle body conveying device. To facilitate better locking and cooperation between the vehicle body clamping plate 9 and the handcart 1, a reinforcing baffle 10 or a reinforcing baffle bar can be fixedly welded to the low end of the frame of the handcart 1.

[0028] Specifically, the vehicle body conveying device includes drive sprockets 11 arranged and installed along the frame 2. For example, one drive sprocket 11 is installed at the lower end of the climbing frame 201, and two drive sprockets 11 are installed on the transition frame 202. A drive chain 12 is sleeved between each drive sprocket 11, and a tension sprocket 13 that meshes with the drive chain 12 is arranged and installed at the bottom end of the frame 2 to support and transmit the drive chain 12. Each drive sprocket 11 is installed on the frame 2 through the cooperation of bearings, bearing seats, and rotating shafts. One of the drive sprockets 11 is connected to the power output end of the drive motor 8. The two can be connected by belt drive, chain drive, etc., and the transmission wheel used to complete the connection is installed coaxially with the drive sprocket 11.

[0029] Each of the vehicle body clamps 9 is fixedly installed on the drive chain 12. When the drive motor 8 drives each wheel to rotate, the drive chain 12 begins to drive the vehicle body clamps 9 fixedly installed thereon to move forward. At this time, if the handcart 1 is engaged with the vehicle body clamp 9, it will drive the handcart 1 to move synchronously. The two wheels of the handcart 1 are located on both sides of the drive chain 12 and supported on the frame 2, that is, the handcart 1 can move along the frame 2 into the compartment of the transport vehicle.

[0030] To ensure the stability of the connection between the frame 2 and the transport vehicle, a docking anti-detachment device is provided on the frame 2 to prevent displacement of the frame 2 and the separation from the transport vehicle during frequent loading and unloading of the handcart 1. Specifically, the docking anti-detachment device includes at least one anti-detachment limiting rod 14 detachably installed through the frame 2. In this embodiment, the anti-detachment limiting rod 14 is inserted into the end of the transition frame 202, and the lower end of the anti-detachment limiting rod 14 extends into the gap between the side panel 15 and the floor 16 of the transport vehicle. After the anti-detachment limiting rod 14 is inserted into the gap between the side panel 15 and the floor 16, the two will limit it, so that the frame 2 will neither collide with the floor 16 due to displacement nor move away from the floor 16, thereby ensuring the stability of the handcart 1 when loading and unloading. Of course, the docking anti-detachment device can also be fixed to the transport vehicle by setting pull ropes, clamps, etc. on the frame 2.

[0031] In this embodiment, the frame 2 is lifted and pushed / pulled using the handle 5 to reach the carriage position. It is then manually connected to the carriage of the transport vehicle, and the anti-detachment limiting rod 14 is inserted for anti-detachment limiting. The drive motor 8 is started, causing the drive chain 12 to move cyclically. Fruit boxes are stacked sequentially on the handcart 1, and the handcart 1 is pushed to the lower end of the frame 2 until the vehicle body clamp 9 can lock onto the bottom of the handcart 1's frame. As the drive chain 12 moves, under the locking action of the vehicle body clamp 9, the handcart 1 is gradually transferred from the ground along the frame 2 into the carriage of the transport vehicle. During the entire loading process, one loading personnel is required to support the handcart 1. After the handcart 1 enters the carriage, it is manually pushed to the target position, and the fruit boxes are unloaded and stacked in one go. Then, the handcart 1 is moved along the unloading area 7 to the ground for the next loading task. After loading is completed, remove the anti-detachment limiting rod 14 from the frame 2, and then move the frame 2 to the next loading position using the handle 5.

Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The embodiments were chosen and described in order to better illustrate the principles and practical application of the utility model, and to enable those skilled in the art to understand the utility model and design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for a particular purpose.
