Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of forklift technology, and in particular to a small modular detachable forklift. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional small forklifts are typically unibody designs, making them bulky and inconvenient to carry for work. Their size and weight pose significant transportation challenges. Furthermore, the steel frames of traditional small forklifts, typically made of U-shaped, C-shaped, or other channel steel, often lack sufficient rigidity under their rated load capacity, causing the forks to tilt forward when lifted to a certain height. Additionally, the multiple pulley systems used in traditional small forklifts to drive the forks result in prolonged use of the wire rope winding machine, leading to deformation and shortening the rope's lifespan, making it prone to breakage.
[0003] Therefore, a small, modular, detachable forklift is needed to solve the aforementioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

Detailed Implementation
[0030] The principles and features of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only for explaining this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0031] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a small modular detachable forklift includes a bracket, a base, and a fork arm mechanism 8.
[0032] The base includes two parallel flat plate supports 2, with a second connecting plate 7 detachably connected between them. This connection can be made via bolts or quick-connection using pins and holes. A bending bracket 3 is fixed to the front end of each flat plate support 2, and a roller is mounted on the bending bracket 3, with a roller locking pedal. A roller is also mounted on the end of the second connecting plate 7 furthest from the bending bracket 3. The bending bracket 3 is bent upwards to facilitate the installation of larger rollers.
[0033] The support system comprises two sets of parallel support units, each including a support arm 4 and a diagonal arm 5, both of which are cylindrical. A top connecting rod 9 is detachably connected between the tops of the two support arms 4, and the top of the diagonal arm 5 is detachably connected to the top connecting rod 9. The bottoms of both support arms 4 and diagonal arms 5 are detachably mounted on the flat plate support 2. Preferably, the bottom of the diagonal arm 5 is detachably mounted on the bent support 3. The included angle between the support arms 4 and diagonal arms 5 is an acute angle, forming a triangle with the flat plate support 2 for greater structural stability. Both ends of the diagonal arm 5 have circular holes, and the top connecting rod 9 and the bent support 3 have corresponding connecting holes, allowing for quick installation and removal of the diagonal arm 5 using pins or bolts.
[0034] The support arm 4 includes a first connecting pipe 41 and a second connecting pipe 42. The first connecting pipe 41 has a connector and a connector hole at both ends, and the second connecting pipe 42 has connectors at both ends. The first connecting pipe 41 and the second connecting pipe 42 are connected by a connector. A bottom connector hole is provided through the flat plate bracket 2, and the lower end of the second connecting pipe 42 is inserted into the bottom connector hole. The top connecting rod 9 has two top connector holes, and the upper end of the first connecting pipe 41 is inserted into the top connector holes for easy installation and disassembly. A first connecting plate 6 is fixedly connected between the two second connecting pipes 42.
[0035] The fork arm mechanism 8 includes two fork arms 81, one end of which is bent. A mounting plate 82 is detachably connected between the bent ends of the two fork arms 81 via bolts. A motor 83 is mounted on the mounting plate 82, and a winding reel 85 is mounted on the output end of the motor 83. A steel wire rope is wound on the winding reel 85. One end of the steel wire rope is connected to the top connecting rod 9, which can be quickly connected via a hanging ring. Two support plates are fixed on the mounting plate 82, and both ends of the winding reel 85 pass through the two support plates, with the winding reel 85 rotatably connected to the support plates. Side plates 86 are fixed on both sides of the mounting plate 82, and two guide wheels 87 are mounted on the side plates 86. The two guide wheels 87 are located on both sides of the support arm 4, and they roll in contact with the support arm 4. The support arm 4 is held by the two guide wheels 87, and the outer edge of the guide wheels 87 is provided with an arc-shaped groove adapted to the support arm 4, allowing the fork arm mechanism 8 to move only in a straight line along the support arm 4 when moving up and down. A control box bracket 84 is fixed on the mounting plate 82, and a control box 1 is mounted on the control box bracket 84.
[0036] Working principle: The forklift is moved by pushing or pulling the two diagonal arms 5. The raising and lowering of the fork arms 81 is achieved by the forward and reverse rotation of the motor 83, which extends or retracts the wire rope. When portable transport is required, the top connecting rod 9 is disassembled from the diagonal arms 5 and support arms 4, and the lower ends of the diagonal arms 5 and support arms 4 are removed from the base. The support arm 4 can be separately separated into a first connecting pipe 41 and a second connecting pipe 42. The fork arm mechanism 8 is then disassembled from the support arms 4, and its components are disassembled. Finally, the base is separated, and the second connecting plate 7 is disassembled from the two flat brackets 2. The disassembled components can be placed in the trunk of a car for greater portability.
