Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of forklifts, and in particular to a forklift shoveling device. Background Technology

[0002] Forklifts are industrial handling vehicles. Their structure includes a body, lifting device, fork support frame and forks. They are essential equipment for loading, unloading and stacking palletized goods using the forks, and are used in pallet and container transportation.

[0003] However, due to the structural limitations of forklifts, their handling function is limited, and they can only handle palletized goods. For some loose goods (such as broken glass, etc.), forklifts cannot handle loose goods. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a forklift handling device. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a forklift carrying device, which aims to solve the technical problem that due to the structural limitations of forklifts, their carrying function is limited and they can only carry palletized goods. For some loose goods (such as broken glass, etc.), forklifts cannot carry loose goods.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows:

[0006] A forklift loading device includes a loading rack with a loading cavity extending through the top of the rack. A feed opening connects to the loading cavity on one side of the rack. Two fork slots are located on the other side of the rack for fork insertion. The fork slots extend along the width of the rack. Two unloading racks are located at the top of the rack, each with a movable opening extending through both sides for fork insertion.

[0007] When a forklift needs to move bulk goods, the forklift's forks are inserted into the fork slots. As the forklift moves, it moves the shovel rack, which scoops the bulk material into the shovel cavity for storage, facilitating the forklift's handling of the bulk goods. Once the shovel rack has transported the bulk material to the designated location, the forklift's forks are pulled out of the fork slots and inserted into the movable opening. Since both emptying racks are located on top of the shovel rack, there is no support point above the shovel cavity. When the forklift raises its forks, the shovel rack tilts due to the lack of support above the shovel cavity, thus emptying the bulk goods from the cavity and completing the unloading process.

[0008] Furthermore, in this application, the shovel rack has two stabilizing frames on one side, the stabilizing frames are located above the fork slots, the stabilizing frames have a limiting cavity inside, the limiting cavity extends through the top and bottom of the stabilizing frame, the stabilizing frame has a limiting opening on one side, the limiting opening communicates with the limiting cavity, the limiting opening is for the fork support frame to pass through, the limiting opening has a first fixing hole on one side, the stabilizing frame has a second fixing hole on one side, the second fixing hole communicates with the limiting opening, the second fixing hole has a first fixing bolt passing through the second fixing hole, and the insertion end of the first fixing bolt is threaded into the first fixing hole.

[0009] When the forklift forks are inserted into the fork slot, the fork support frame passes through the limiting opening and is inserted into the limiting cavity. The first fixing bolt passes through the second fixing hole, so that the first fixing bolt is threadedly engaged with the first fixing hole, thereby limiting the fork support frame located in the limiting cavity and preventing the shovel frame from coming out of the slot when shoveling material.

[0010] Furthermore, in this application, fastening blocks are provided on both sides of the limiting cavity, and the fastening blocks are elastic.

[0011] When the fork support frame is inserted into the limiting cavity, the fastening blocks on both sides of the limiting cavity are tightly attached to both sides of the fork support frame, thereby enhancing the stability of the fork support frame.

[0012] Furthermore, in this application, the material of the fastening block is rubber or sponge.

[0013] Furthermore, in this application, the top of the active opening is formed with a guide arc surface.

[0014] Furthermore, in this application, the top of the movable opening is provided with a contact block, the shape of which matches the guide arc surface, and the contact block is elastic.

[0015] Furthermore, in this application, the material of the contact block is rubber or sponge.

[0016] Furthermore, in this application, a guide slope is formed on one side of the feed opening, and the guide slope gradually slopes upward toward the shovel cavity.

[0017] Furthermore, in this application, the inside of the material shovel cavity is provided with a detachable material blocking slide plate, and the inside of the material shovel cavity is provided with sliding grooves on both sides, and the two sides of the material blocking slide plate slide in cooperation with the sliding grooves on both sides of the material shovel cavity.

[0018] Furthermore, in this application, a third fixing hole is provided on one side of the material blocking slide plate, and a fourth fixing hole is provided on one side of the material shovel frame. A second fixing bolt is inserted into the fourth fixing hole, and the second fixing bolt is threadedly engaged with the third fixing hole.

[0019] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] When a forklift needs to move bulk goods, the forklift's forks are inserted into the fork slots. As the forklift moves, it moves the shovel rack, which scoops the bulk material into the shovel cavity for storage, facilitating the forklift's handling of the bulk goods. Once the shovel rack has transported the bulk material to the designated location, the forklift's forks are pulled out of the fork slots and inserted into the movable opening. Since both emptying racks are located on top of the shovel rack, there is no support point above the shovel cavity. When the forklift raises its forks, the shovel rack tilts due to the lack of support above the shovel cavity, thus emptying the bulk goods from the cavity and completing the unloading process.

[0032] Reference Figures 1-6 In some specific embodiments, a forklift shoveling device includes a shoveling frame 1, with a shoveling cavity 2 inside the shoveling frame 1 extending through the top of the shoveling frame 1. A feeding opening 22 is provided on one side of the shoveling frame 1, which communicates with the shoveling cavity 2. Two fork slots 3 are provided on the other side of the shoveling frame 1, for inserting forks 21. The fork slots 3 extend along the width direction of the shoveling frame 1. Two dumping racks 4 are provided on the top of the shoveling frame 1, with movable openings 5 ​​inside the dumping racks 4 extending through both sides of the dumping racks 4, for inserting forks 21.

[0033] With the above technical solution, when a forklift needs to transport bulk goods, the forklift's forks 21 are inserted into the fork slots 3, so that when the forklift moves, it drives the shovel frame 1 to move. The feeding opening 22 of the shovel frame 1 shovels the bulk material into the shovel cavity 2 for storage, which facilitates the forklift's transport of bulk goods. After the shovel frame 1 transports the bulk material to the designated location, the forklift's forks 21 are pulled out of the fork slots 3 and inserted into the movable opening 5. Since both dumping racks 4 are set on the top of the shovel frame 1, there is no support point above the shovel cavity 2. When the forklift raises the forks 21, the shovel frame 1 will tilt due to the lack of support point above the shovel cavity 2, thereby dumping the bulk goods out of the shovel cavity 2 and completing the unloading of bulk goods.

[0034] It should be noted that the material rack 1 is suitable for transferring loose goods on the ground to another vacant ground.

[0035] Reference Figures 1-4 In some specific embodiments, two stabilizing frames 8 are provided on one side of the shovel frame 1. The stabilizing frames 8 are located above the fork slot 3. A limiting cavity 9 is opened inside the stabilizing frame 8. The limiting cavity 9 passes through the top and bottom of the stabilizing frame 8. A limiting opening 13 is opened on one side of the stabilizing frame 8. The limiting opening 13 is connected to the limiting cavity 9. The limiting opening 13 is used for the fork support frame to pass through. A first fixing hole 11 is opened on one side of the limiting opening 13. A second fixing hole 12 is provided on one side of the stabilizing frame 8. The second fixing hole 12 is connected to the limiting opening 13. A first fixing bolt 14 passes through the second fixing hole 12. The insertion end of the first fixing bolt 14 is threadedly engaged with the first fixing hole 11.

[0036] With the above technical solution, when the fork 21 of the forklift is inserted into the fork slot 3, the fork support frame passes through the limiting opening 13 and is inserted into the limiting cavity 9. The first fixing bolt 14 passes through the second fixing hole 12, so that the first fixing bolt 14 is threadedly engaged with the first fixing hole 11, thereby limiting the fork support frame located in the limiting cavity 9 and preventing the shovel frame 1 from coming out of the slot fork 21 when shoveling material.

[0037] Reference Figures 1-4 In some specific embodiments, fastening blocks 10 are provided on both sides of the limiting cavity 9, and the fastening blocks 10 are elastic.

[0038] With the above technical solution, when the fork support frame is inserted into the limiting cavity 9, the fastening blocks 10 on both sides of the limiting cavity 9 are tightly attached to both sides of the fork support frame, thereby enhancing the stability of the fork support frame.

[0039] Reference Figures 1-4 In some specific embodiments, the material of the fastening block 10 is rubber or sponge.

[0040] Reference Figure 6 In some specific embodiments, the top of the movable opening 5 is formed with a guide arc surface 6.

[0041] With the above technical solution, when the forklift lifts the forks 21, the guide arc surface 6 of the shovel frame 1 will roll along the forks 21 of the forklift, thereby facilitating the guidance of the tilt position of the shovel frame 1.

[0042] Reference Figure 6 In some specific embodiments, the top of the movable opening 5 is provided with a contact block 7, the shape of the contact block 7 matches the guide arc surface 6, and the contact block 7 is elastic.

[0043] With the above technical solution, when the forklift forks 21 come into contact with the movable opening 5, a certain collision will occur. The impact force of the collision is buffered by the elastic contact block 7, thereby extending the service life of the movable opening 5.

[0044] Reference Figure 6 In some specific embodiments, the material of the contact block 7 is rubber or sponge.

[0045] Reference Figures 1-2 In some specific embodiments, a guide slope 20 is formed on one side of the feed opening 22, and the guide slope 20 gradually slopes upward toward the shovel cavity 2.

[0046] With the above technical solution, when the feeding opening 22 of the shovel rack 1 shovels material, the guide slope 20 guides the bulk material to the shovel cavity 2, thereby facilitating the storage of bulk material.

[0047] Reference Figures 1-3 In some specific embodiments, the material shovel cavity 2 is provided with a detachable material blocking slide plate 16 inside, and the material shovel cavity 2 is provided with sliding grooves 15 on both sides inside, and the two sides of the material blocking slide plate 16 slide in cooperation with the sliding grooves 15 on both sides of the material shovel cavity 2.

[0048] With the above technical solution, when the shovel frame 1 is transported, the baffle plate 16 slides into the chute 15, so that the baffle plate 16 blocks the inside of the shovel cavity 2, thereby preventing bulk materials from spilling out of the feed opening 22 during movement.

[0049] Reference Figure 4 In some specific embodiments, a third fixing hole 17 is provided on one side of the material blocking slide plate 16, and a fourth fixing hole 18 is provided on one side of the material shovel frame 1. A second fixing bolt 19 is inserted into the fourth fixing hole 18, and the second fixing bolt 19 is threadedly engaged with the third fixing hole 17.

[0050] With the above technical solution, when the material stop slide plate 16 slides into the slide groove 15, the second fixing bolt 19 passes through the fourth fixing hole 18, and the second fixing bolt 19 is threadedly engaged with the third fixing hole 17, thereby facilitating the fixing of the position of the material stop slide plate 16.

[0051] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.
