The two ends of the second guardrails are fixedly connected to the fixing plate and the second guardrail respectively.

[0017] The loading pallet has symmetrical movable plates on both sides of its bottom, and the unloading platform has movable grooves that slide with the movable plates.

[0018] The side wall of the fixing plate is provided with a fixing seat, and the fixing seat is fixedly connected to the traction end of the traction rope.

[0019] A plurality of U-shaped connecting plates are provided between the first fixing rod and the second fixing rod located on the same side. Two pins are symmetrically slidably inserted on both sides of each connecting plate. The first fixing rod and the second fixing rod are provided with insertion holes corresponding to the pins for insertion and engagement.

[0020] A battery and a hydraulic oil tank are respectively installed on the outside of the carriage, and a control terminal is installed in the driver's cab. The control terminal includes control components for the displacement component and control components for the top pressing component.

[0021] In practical use, this invention works as follows: When a cart loaded with duck baskets is transported, the push plate is close to the front plate. Under the magnetic attraction of the metal plate and the electromagnet, the limiting plate is pressed tightly against the push plate. Upon reaching the unloading platform at the slaughterhouse, the rear of the cart is close to the front of the unloading platform for easy rearward movement. The locked door is then opened to both sides. The displacement motor is started via the control terminal, and the worm gear drives the worm wheel, which in turn drives the threaded rod to rotate, thus pushing the unloading pallet towards one side of the unloading platform. Rollers ensure smooth movement on the unloading platform. When the limiting plate reaches the rear of the cart, it stops moving, and the cart and the limiting plate are fixedly connected by the limiting rod, thus limiting the position of the limiting plate within the cart. Simultaneously, the electromagnet is de-energized, releasing the magnetic attraction. Then, the loading pallet and the unloading pallet are aligned, ensuring the pallet is level. After the loading and unloading pallets are bound together using connecting plates, pins, and sockets, the displacement motor is activated to rotate and slowly retract the unloading pallet, moving it to one side of the truck bed. The electric winch releases sufficient traction rope, and under the action of the limit plate and top plate, all the stacked duck crates are gradually pushed onto the top surface of the transfer pallet. Once the unloading pallet is fully reset, the hydraulic cylinder is activated, and the top plate further pushes the duck crates onto one side of the loading pallet. Then, the locking state of the limit plate is released, and it is manually pushed to one side of the push plate. The electromagnet is energized to re-magnetically attract the limit plate, making it fit tightly against it to ensure space for re-transfer. The duck truck can then leave, and the electric winch retracts the traction rope, pulling the loading pallet away from the edge of the unloading platform before transferring the duck crates to the next process.

[0022] It should also be noted that the duck-shaped unloading vehicle connects to a power take-off (PTO), hydraulic pump, hydraulic lines, and other hydraulic system components via its chassis, which in turn connect to the hydraulic cylinders. The control unit for the top pressing component is an electromagnetic directional valve that controls the extension and retraction of the hydraulic cylinders. This electromagnetic directional valve is powered by the vehicle's battery. The control unit for the displacement component controls the forward and reverse rotation of the displacement motor, enabling automatic control of the unloading pallet to move forward and backward to a predetermined position. The battery provides power to the displacement motor.

[0023] Furthermore, a stepped unloading platform can be built to meet the overall unloading needs of duck carts of different specifications, and the specifications of related components can be adjusted accordingly.

[0024] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: it can move and unload the entire truckload of duck baskets as a whole, significantly improving unloading efficiency, requiring less manual intervention, and greatly reducing the labor intensity of operators during the unloading process of duck baskets.
