Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of clay model transportation technology, and in particular to a device for transporting clay models. Background Technology
[0002] Clay models are traditional car body models sculpted from clay in automotive design. Early car body models were mostly made of plaster and wood. Wooden models are characterized by minimal deformation, durability, and long-term preservation. Plaster is cheaper, but has lower strength and is not easily modified. In 1955, Japan first used industrial clay for car model design and development. In 1972, General Motors in the United States applied clay to car design and development models, freeing car design from the constraints of rigid plaster and wood. my country began using this technology in the early 1970s. Today, for almost all world-renowned automobile companies, creating clay models is a crucial part of the design process.
[0003] In the field of clay model technology for wind tunnel testing, it is often necessary to transport and transfer clay models, such as moving them from the storage area to the wind tunnel testing area, or vice versa. Forklifts are typically used for this purpose. Traditional forklifts simply insert their two forks into pre-drilled holes in the clay model's base, lift it to a certain height to separate it from the ground, and then move it for transport. However, because there is no effective restraint or fixation for the clay model, it is prone to sliding left and right. Furthermore, the limited width of the forklift forks makes it easy for the clay model to slide, tilt, or even fall off the forks, posing a significant safety hazard. Therefore, a device for transporting clay models is urgently needed to solve these technical problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model discloses a device for transporting clay models. It is equipped with a forklift body, a bottom frame body, and a top frame body. During operation, the clay model can be lifted as a whole and placed on the top frame body. Then, the forklift body and the bottom frame body can be used to transport and transfer the clay model. During the transportation and transfer process, the stability is high, and the clay model is not likely to slip or fall from the sides of the top frame body, effectively reducing safety hazards. After the clay model is transported and transferred to the target area, it can be unloaded. During loading and unloading of the clay model, the drive motor can drive two sets of rollers to rotate synchronously, so as to easily load and unload the clay model, smoothly enter and exit the top frame body, improve work efficiency, and reduce the labor intensity of workers.
[0005] By incorporating a limiting rod, mounting plate, first abutment knob, and second abutment knob, after the clay model is installed onto the top frame body, the first abutment knob can be loosened, and then the limiting rod can be rotated so that the top of its L-shaped bend faces upward, thus making the limiting rod stand upright. Then, by rotating the second abutment knob, it is brought into contact with the top frame body, thus providing auxiliary fixation for the limiting rod. In this way, during the transportation and transfer of the clay model, the limiting rod, in conjunction with the guardrail on the back of the top frame body, further limits the forward and backward movement of the clay model, effectively preventing it from sliding and falling off the top frame body, further reducing safety hazards. In summary, this solves the problems in the background technology.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0007] This utility model discloses a device for transporting clay models, comprising a forklift body and a top frame assembly. The forklift body is a manual hydraulic forklift. Two base plates are fixedly connected to one side of the forklift body, and a first slot is provided on the base plate. Multiple first moving wheels are provided on the bottom of both the forklift body and the base plates. A mounting frame is fixedly connected to the top of the two base plates. A lifting mechanism is installed inside the mounting frame, and a fork is connected to the bottom of the lifting mechanism. The fork is slidably connected to the mounting frame. A base frame body is provided on the top of the two base plates. One side of the base frame body matches and engages with the two first slots. A second slot is provided on the inner side of the base frame body away from the forklift body, and the second slot matches and engages with the base plate.
[0008] The top frame assembly includes a top frame body, inside which two sets of rollers are installed. Multiple rollers in the same set are connected by a first transmission mechanism. The top of the rollers is higher than the top of the top frame body. A drive motor is fixedly installed inside the top frame body. The drive motor is connected to the two sets of rollers by a second transmission mechanism. A third slot is provided at the bottom of the top frame body, and the third slot matches and engages with two forks.
[0009] Furthermore, the bottom of the base frame body is provided with a plurality of second moving wheels, which are symmetrically and evenly distributed on both sides of the bottom of the base frame body.
[0010] Furthermore, guardrails are fixedly connected to both sides and the back of the top frame body, and the guardrails are fixedly connected to the top frame body by welding.
[0011] Furthermore, two limiting rods are rotatably mounted on the front of the top frame body via two rotating connectors. The limiting rods are L-shaped, and an mounting plate is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the limiting rods. The mounting plate is L-shaped, and a first abutting knob and a second abutting knob are threaded through the mounting plate. The first abutting knob and the second abutting knob are respectively close to the two ends of the L-shaped bend of the mounting plate. The first abutting knob abuts and tightens against the front of the top frame body.
[0012] Furthermore, both the first and second abutment knobs are provided with anti-slip pads at their ends, and the anti-slip pads are made of rubber material.
[0013] Furthermore, the two limiting rods are designed to be symmetrically distributed along the center line of the front of the top frame body, and the two limiting rods are respectively close to the two sets of rollers.
[0014] The present invention has the following advantages over the prior art:
[0015] 1. This technical solution, by setting up a forklift body, a bottom frame body, and a top frame body, allows the clay model to be lifted and placed on the top frame body during operation. Then, the forklift body, in conjunction with the bottom frame body, can transport and transfer the clay model. During transportation and transfer, the stability is high, and the clay model is unlikely to slip or fall from the sides of the top frame body, effectively reducing safety hazards. After the clay model is transported and transferred to the target area, it can be unloaded. During loading and unloading of the clay model, the drive motor can drive two sets of rollers to rotate synchronously, so as to easily load and unload the clay model, smoothly enter and exit the top frame body, improve work efficiency, reduce the labor intensity of workers, and has high overall practicality.
[0016] 2. This technical solution, by setting a limiting rod, mounting plate, first abutment knob, and second abutment knob, allows the first abutment knob to be loosened after the clay model is installed onto the top frame body. Then, the limiting rod is rotated so that the top of its L-shaped bend faces upward, thus making the limiting rod stand upright. Then, by rotating the second abutment knob, it is pressed tightly against the top frame body, thus providing auxiliary fixation for the limiting rod. In this way, when transporting and transferring the clay model, the limiting rod, in conjunction with the guardrail on the back of the top frame body, further limits the forward and backward movement of the clay model, effectively preventing the clay model from sliding and falling off the top frame body, further reducing safety hazards, and demonstrating high practicality.

[0027] Reference Figures 1-6 A device for transporting clay models includes a forklift body 1 and a top frame assembly. The forklift body 1 is a manual hydraulic forklift. Two base plates 2 are fixedly connected to one side of the forklift body 1. A first slot 3 is provided at the base plate 2. Multiple first moving wheels 4 are provided at the bottom of both the forklift body 1 and the base plate 2. A mounting frame 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the two base plates 2. A lifting mechanism 6 is installed inside the mounting frame 5. A fork 7 is connected to the bottom of the lifting mechanism 6. The fork 7 is slidably connected to the mounting frame 5. A base frame body 8 is provided at the top of the two base plates 2. One side of the base frame body 8 matches and engages with the two first slots 3. A second slot 9 is provided on the inner side of the base frame body 8 away from the forklift body 1. The second slot 9 matches and engages with the base plate 2.
[0028] The top frame assembly includes a top frame body 10, inside which two sets of rollers 11 are installed. Multiple rollers 11 in the same set are connected by a first transmission mechanism 12. The top of the rollers 11 is higher than the top of the top frame body 10. A drive motor 13 is fixedly installed inside the top frame body 10. The drive motor 13 is connected to the two sets of rollers 11 by a second transmission mechanism 14. A third slot 15 is provided at the bottom of the top frame body 10. The third slot 15 is matched and engaged with two forks 7. The bottom of the top frame body 10 is in contact with the top of the bottom frame body 8.
[0029] The bottom of the base frame body 8 is provided with multiple second moving wheels 16, which are symmetrically and evenly distributed on both sides of the bottom of the base frame body 8; the top frame body 10 is fixedly connected to both sides and the back with guardrails 17, which are fixedly connected to the top frame body 10 by welding.
[0030] Two limiting rods 19 are rotatably mounted on the front of the top frame body 10 via two rotating connectors 18. The limiting rods 19 are L-shaped, and a mounting plate 20 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the limiting rods 19. The mounting plate 20 is L-shaped, and a first abutting knob 21 and a second abutting knob 22 are screwed through the mounting plate 20. The first abutting knob 21 and the second abutting knob 22 are respectively close to the two ends of the L-shaped bend of the mounting plate 20. The first abutting knob 21 abuts and tightens against the front of the top frame body 10.
[0031] The ends of the first contact knob 21 and the second contact knob 22 are provided with anti-slip pads 23, which are made of rubber material; the two limiting rods 19 are symmetrically distributed along the center line of the front of the top frame body 10, and the two limiting rods 19 are respectively close to the two sets of rollers 11.
[0032] In the specific implementation process, during work, the clay model can be lifted as a whole and placed on the top frame body 10. Then, the clay model can be transported and transferred using the forklift body 1 in conjunction with the bottom frame body 8. During transportation and transfer, the bottom frame body 8, along with the base plate 2, the first moving wheel 4, and the second moving wheel 16, can provide auxiliary support for the top frame body 10, ensuring its stability. The width of the top frame body 10 is sufficient to accommodate the clay model, and with the guardrails 17 on both sides, the clay model can be effectively restrained, preventing it from slipping or falling off the sides of the top frame body 10, thus effectively reducing safety hazards. This ensures the clay model can be transported and transferred to the target area. After that, the clay model can be unloaded. During the loading and unloading of the clay model, the drive motor 13, in conjunction with the second transmission mechanism 14 and the first transmission mechanism 12, can synchronously drive the two sets of rollers 11 to rotate, so as to easily load and unload the clay model, smoothly enter and exit the top frame body 10, improve work efficiency, and reduce the labor intensity of the workers. When transporting the clay model to the storage area, if the storage area is high, such as in the case of stacked storage, the lifting mechanism 6 can be activated to move the truck upward and lift the top frame body 10, thereby lifting the clay model. After the clay model is lifted to a suitable height, it can be unloaded.
[0033] After the clay model is installed onto the top frame body 10, the first abutment knob 21 can be loosened, and then the limiting rod 19 can be rotated so that the top of its L-shaped bend faces upward, thus making the limiting rod 19 stand up. Then, by rotating the second abutment knob 22, it can be made to abut and tighten against the top frame body 10, thereby providing auxiliary fixation for the limiting rod 19. In this way, when transporting and transferring the clay model, the limiting rod 19, in conjunction with the guardrail 17 on the back of the top frame body 10, can further limit the front and rear movement of the clay model, thereby effectively preventing the clay model from moving back and forth on the top frame body 10 and slipping and falling, further reducing safety hazards and making it highly practical.
[0034] The bottom of the base frame 8 is provided with multiple second moving wheels 16. The multiple second moving wheels 16 are symmetrically and evenly distributed on both sides of the bottom of the base frame 8 to provide auxiliary moving support for the base frame 8, improve the stability of the base frame 8, and thus improve the stability of the top frame 10 and the clay model.
[0035] Among them, guardrails 17 are fixedly connected to both sides and the back of the top frame body 10. The guardrails 17 are fixedly connected to the top frame body 10 by welding in order to effectively limit the left and right sides and the back side of the clay model, thereby effectively preventing the clay model from slipping left and right and causing safety accidents.
[0036] The limit rod 19 can be rotated and adjusted to facilitate the loading of the clay model onto the vehicle. For example, when loading, ensure that the limit rod 19 is in a horizontal state to avoid blocking the entrance of the top frame body 10. After loading, rotate the limit rod 19 to make it stand up and fix it, effectively preventing the clay model from accidentally slipping and falling from the front of the top frame body 10, improving safety and reducing safety hazards.
[0037] Among them, the ends of the first abutting knob 21 and the second abutting knob 22 are provided with anti-slip pads 23. The anti-slip pads 23 are made of rubber material to increase the abutting friction between the first abutting knob 21 and the second abutting knob 22 and the top frame body 10, thereby improving the auxiliary fixing effect on the limiting rod 19.
[0038] The two limiting rods 19 are symmetrically distributed along the center line of the front of the top frame body 10, and the two limiting rods 19 are close to the two sets of rollers 11 so that the clay model can be uniformly limited.

These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the utility model to the specific implementations described. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification.
