Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0043] To address the technical problems existing in the prior art, this utility model provides a handling device. The handling device includes a support frame fixedly connected to a base plate. The support frame includes multiple foldable columns. When the columns are unfolded, the base plate and the columns together form a space for accommodating a vehicle. This handling device not only effectively protects the vehicle from damage during transportation but also facilitates recycling and reuse, thereby reducing vehicle packaging costs.

[0044] The specific structure of the handling device provided in the embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below.

[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the handling device includes a base plate 1, a support frame 2, and a bracket 4. The support frame 2 is fixedly connected to the base plate 1 and includes multiple foldable uprights 3. When the uprights 3 are unfolded, the base plate 1 and the uprights 3 together form a space for accommodating vehicles, allowing the handling device to transport vehicles of different models. Furthermore, the bracket 4 is mounted on the base plate 1 to support the vehicle, such as supporting the wheels. This handling device effectively protects the vehicle from damage during transportation. When the uprights 3 are folded, the handling device is easily retrievable and can be reused to pack other vehicles, reducing packing costs. This embodiment of the invention does not limit the type of vehicle; it can be a unicycle, a two-wheeled vehicle (such as a bicycle, motorcycle, or electric vehicle), a three-wheeled vehicle, or a four-wheeled vehicle, etc.

[0046] like Figure 3 As shown, when this handling device is used to pack a vehicle, multiple uprights 3 are in an unfolded state, and the wheels of the vehicle 6 are placed inside the support 4. The support 4 supports the vehicle 6, preventing damage during transportation. This handling device not only provides strong protection but also has low packing costs. Optionally, the support frame 2 can be made of stainless steel or iron, which not only effectively protects the vehicle from damage during transportation but also reduces the production cost of the handling device and the packing cost of the vehicle. Optionally, the uprights 3 can be made of square tubing, which helps to improve the durability and load-bearing capacity of the support frame 2. It should be noted that the number of uprights 3 in this embodiment of the invention is not limited and can be determined according to the type and size of the vehicle; it can be two, three, four, six, or eight.

[0047] It should be noted that a single transport device can pack one vehicle or multiple vehicles; this embodiment of the invention does not impose such a limitation. Specifically, a set of supports 4 can be installed on the base plate 1 to support one vehicle, such as... Figure 3As shown, multiple sets of brackets 4 can also be installed on the base plate 1, with each set of brackets 4 used to support one vehicle, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the transport device can carry five two-wheeled vehicles.

[0048] In one embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the column 3 includes a fixed column 31 and a telescopic column 32. The fixed column 31 has a hollow portion 311 and is fixedly connected to the base plate 1; moreover, the fixed column 31 has a locking portion 312 at the end away from the base plate 1. Further, the sliding portion 321 at one end of the telescopic column 32 is inserted into the hollow portion 311 through the locking portion 312 and can slide along the hollow portion 311 until the telescopic column 32 engages with the locking portion 312, so that the column 3 is in the unfolded state. The hollow portion 311 of the fixed column 31 is connected to the locking portion 312, and the sliding portion 321 at one end of the telescopic column 32 is inserted into the hollow portion 311 through the locking portion 312 and can slide along the hollow portion 311. When the telescopic column 32 engages with the locking portion 312, the column 3 is in the unfolded state. Therefore, when using this handling device to pack a vehicle, it is only necessary to drag the telescopic column 32 to slide it along the hollow part 311 of the fixed column 31 until the telescopic column 32 is engaged with the locking part 312 of the fixed column 31, so that the column 3 is in the unfolded state. This simplifies the vehicle packing operation steps, makes it easier for operators to pack vehicles, and helps to improve the vehicle packing efficiency.

[0049] Optionally, such as Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, a groove 313 is provided on the side of the fixed column 31, and a sliding part 321 is provided with a sliding member 322. The sliding member 322 is engaged in the groove 313 and can slide along the groove 313, so that the sliding part 321 can slide along the hollow part 311. The sliding member 322 of the telescopic column 32 is engaged in the groove 313 of the fixed column 31 and can slide along the groove 313. The length of the groove 313 determines the sliding distance of the sliding member 322, which in turn determines the sliding distance of the sliding part 321 of the telescopic column 32 within the hollow part 311 of the fixed column 31. By limiting the sliding distance of the sliding part 321 through the groove 313, it is convenient to put the column 3 in the unfolded state, while ensuring the firmness and stability of the column 3.

[0050] Optionally, such as Figure 2 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the engaging portion 312 has a first groove 314 recessed towards the base plate 1, and the sliding portion 321 is provided with a locking block 323. When the locking block 323 is engaged in the first groove 314, the telescopic post 32 engages with the engaging portion 312. When the locking block 323 disengages from the first groove 314, the sliding portion 321 can slide along the hollow portion 311. The shape of the first groove 314 is the same as the shape of the locking block 323, so that the locking block 323 can be stably engaged in the first groove 314, preventing the locking block 323 from moving within the first groove 314. It should be noted that the shape of the first groove 314 and the locking block 323 is not limited in this embodiment of the utility model, as long as the positioning of the fixing post 31 and the telescopic post 32 can be achieved.

[0051] Optionally, both the first groove 314 and the locking block 323 are wedge-shaped. The wedge-shaped structure can position the fixed column 31 and the telescopic column 32, ensuring that the locking block 323 can be stably engaged in the first groove 314 and easily disengaged from the first groove 314, facilitating the folding of the column 3 and thus the retrieval of the transport device. Alternatively, both the first groove 314 and the locking block 323 are semi-circular. The semi-circular structure can position the fixed column 31 and the telescopic column 32, ensuring that the locking block 323 can be stably engaged in the first groove 314 and easily disengaged from the first groove 314, facilitating the folding of the column 3 and thus the retrieval of the transport device.

[0052] Optionally, such as Figure 6 As shown, the fixed column 31 has an opening 315 on the side without the sliding groove 313. The opening 315 is connected to the hollow part 311 and the snap-fit ​​part 312. The sliding part 321 can pass through the opening 315 and fold towards the base plate 1, so that the column 3 is in a folded state. The opening 315 on the side of the fixed column 31 without the sliding groove 313 is to remove the restriction of the fixed column 31 on the telescopic column 32 when the column 3 is in the folded state, so that the telescopic column 32 can fold freely towards the base plate 1, thereby reducing the area occupied by the handling device and facilitating the recycling of the handling device.

[0053] In another embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 8 As shown, the conveying device also includes a cover plate 5, and a through hole 51 is provided at the edge of the cover plate 5; as Figure 3 As shown, the column 3 has a limiting member 37 at the end away from the base plate 1. A through hole 51 passes through this end of the column 3 away from the base plate 1, and the limiting member 37 restricts the cover plate 5 to this end of the column 3 (the end away from the base plate 1). Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 9As shown. Adding a cover plate 5 to the top of the support frame 2 not only improves the overall robustness and stability of the support frame 2, but also further enhances the protection of the vehicle 6.

[0054] It should be noted that the number of through holes 51 is the same as the number of columns 3, and the opening position of the through holes 51 also corresponds to the position of the columns 3. Each column 3 passes through its corresponding through hole 51, and the cover plate 5 is restricted to the end of the column 3 away from the base plate 1 by the limiting member 37 on each column 3.

[0055] Optionally, such as Figure 7 As shown, the column 3 has a second groove 33 at its end near the base plate 1, and the shape of the second groove 33 is adapted to the shape of the end of the column 3 away from the base plate 1. Therefore, the columns 3 of the two conveying devices can be stacked together, as shown. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, with the column 3 in a folded state, the columns 3 of the two conveying devices can be stacked together for easy retrieval of the conveying devices. Figure 10 As shown, when the column 3 is in the unfolded state, the columns 3 of the two handling devices can be stacked together, which helps to improve handling efficiency and maximize the transport loading rate.

[0056] In another embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 4 As shown, the support frame 2 also includes a crossbeam 34, which connects two uprights 3 that fold in the same direction. In this embodiment of the invention, there are four uprights 3, two of which fold towards each other with the other two uprights 3, as shown. Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, this design minimizes the space occupied by the folded transport device. Since a crossbeam connects two uprights 3 folding in the same direction, a single folding operation can cause both uprights 3 to fold simultaneously towards the base plate 1. Therefore, only two folding operations are needed to change the transport device from an unfolded state to a folded state, which helps improve the recovery efficiency of the transport device. Similarly, only two unfolding operations are needed to change the transport device from a folded state to an unfolded state, thereby improving packaging efficiency.

[0057] Optionally, such as Figure 4 As shown, when the columns 3 are in the unfolded state, pluggable connecting beams 38 can be used to fix them between the two columns 3 to improve the reliability and stability of the support frame 2 in the unfolded state. Especially when the support frame 2 is large, it is necessary to further install connecting beams 38. When it is necessary to fold the columns 3, the connecting beams 38 are pulled out from the columns 3.

[0058] In another embodiment of this utility model, such as Figure 11 As shown, the support 4 includes a first support 41 and a second support 42, and the first support 41 and the second support 42 are respectively arranged at the edges on the opposite sides of the bottom plate 1. The first support 41 and the second support 42 are respectively used to support the front wheels and the rear wheels of the vehicle 6, ensuring the stability of the vehicle 6 within the support frame 2 and preventing the vehicle 6 from being damaged during transportation. Optionally, the first support 41 includes two parallel first support plates 411, and the front wheels are placed between the two first support plates 411 to prevent the vehicle 6 from moving on the bottom plate 1. Similarly, the second support 42 includes two parallel second support plates 421, and the rear wheels are placed between the two second support plates 421 to prevent the vehicle 6 from moving on the bottom plate 1.

[0059] Optionally, the bottom plate 1 where the first support 41 is located and the bottom plate 1 where the second support 42 is located are respectively inclined downward towards the outside of the bottom plate 1, and the bottom plate 1 where the first support 41 is located and the bottom plate 1 where the second support 42 is located are respectively inclined downward in opposite directions, so that the front wheels and the rear wheels of the vehicle 6 are respectively stuck on the bottom plate 1 where the first support 41 is located and the bottom plate 1 where the second support 42 is located, preventing the vehicle 6 from moving on the bottom plate 1. Optionally, the bottom plate 1 where the first support 41 is located and the bottom plate 1 where the second support 42 is located are in a V-shaped configuration, that is, the bottom plate 1 where the first support 41 is located is the left stroke (丿) of the V shape, and the bottom plate 1 where the second support 41 is located is the right stroke (㇏) of the V shape.

[0060] Optionally, as Figure 11 shown, a blocking member 43 is provided at the end of the first support 41 far from the second support 42, and a rotating member 44 is provided at the end of the second support 42 far from the first support 41. One end of the rotating member 44 is hinged to the second support 42, and the other end is detachably connected to the second support 42; wherein, the blocking member 43 and the rotating member 44 are used to abut against the wheels of the vehicle 6 to limit the vehicle 6 within the support frame 2. Optionally, the blocking member 43 can be fixed at the ends of the two parallel first support plates 411, and this end is far from the second support 42. Optionally, the rotating member 44 can be fixed at the ends of the two parallel second support plates 421, and this end is far from the first support 41. One end of the rotating member 44 is hinged to one of the second support plates 421, and the other end is detachably connected to the other second support plate 421.

[0061] Optionally, the rotating member 44 and the second support 42 are detachably connected by a D-shaped pin. When the vehicle 6 needs to be carried into the support frame 2, the D-shaped pin between the rotating member 44 and the other second support plate 421 is opened, the vehicle enters the support frame 2, the front and rear wheels of the vehicle 6 are respectively clamped within the first support 41 and the second support 42, and then the D-shaped pin is inserted between the rotating member 44 and the other second support plate 421, so that the vehicle 6 is restricted within the support frame 2.

[0062] Optionally, the bracket 4 also includes a third bracket 45 disposed between the first bracket 41 and the second bracket 42. On the one hand, it can guide the front wheels of the vehicle 6 into the first bracket 2, and on the other hand, it can support the vehicle 6, so that the handling device can be adapted to different vehicle models.
