Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of warehousing equipment technology, and in particular to a stacking device. Background Technology
[0002] Stacking equipment is a specialized device that uses forks as a lifting mechanism to move and stack goods in warehouses, workshops, and other locations using automated racking systems. Currently, when using stacking equipment, warehouse personnel typically move goods that require weighing to the weighing station first, and then move them to subsequent processes or stack them on the racks. This undoubtedly causes significant inconvenience to warehousing operations and hinders the improvement of warehousing efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0003] In view of this, the present application aims to provide a stacking device that can improve the convenience and efficiency of warehousing operations, and also improve the durability of stacking equipment.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this application is implemented as follows: A stacking device includes a base, a lifting drive mechanism disposed on the base, and a forklift mechanism that moves up and down relative to the base under the drive of the lifting drive mechanism. The forklift mechanism includes a frame, and a fork assembly, a lifting assembly, and a weighing assembly mounted on the frame. The fork assembly is configured to be able to move up and down relative to the frame, and the lifting assembly and the weighing assembly are located below the fork assembly. Driven by the lifting component, the fork assembly can switch between the raised position and the lowered position. In the lowered position, the fork assembly is supported on the weighing component and can be weighed by the weighing component.
[0005] Furthermore, the frame is provided with a mounting slot, and the fork assembly has a base; The base is located within the mounting slot, and the mounting slot constrains the fork assembly to be able to move only relative to the frame.
[0006] Furthermore, the weighing assembly employs a weighing sensor disposed within the mounting slot, and in the lowered position, the base is supported on the weighing sensor.
[0007] Furthermore, the lifting assembly includes a cylinder mounted on the frame; When the cylinder rod extends, it can abut against the base and drive the fork assembly to rise to the raised position. When the cylinder rod retracts, the fork assembly descends to the lowered position and has a preset gap with the cylinder rod.
[0008] Furthermore, the cylinder is located at the bottom of the frame, and one end of the cylinder rod capable of abutting against the base is located in the mounting groove; and / or, The frame is equipped with a clamping block, which is located above the base. In the raised position, the cylinder rod cooperates with the clamping block to clamp the fork assembly.
[0009] Furthermore, the fork assembly employs telescopic forks, and the forks in the fork assembly, as well as the drive system that drives the forks to extend and retract, are disposed on the base.
[0010] Furthermore, the frame is provided with a protective frame, which encloses an accommodating space above the frame; The fork assembly is located in the receiving space, and the forks of the fork assembly can extend from one side of the protective frame.
[0011] Furthermore, the base has vertically arranged guide columns, and the frame moves up and down along the base via rollers that abut against the guide columns, with multiple sets of rollers facing different directions.
[0012] Furthermore, the lifting drive mechanism includes a rotary drive unit and a transmission chain driven by the rotary drive unit, with both ends of the transmission chain wound around the base and connected to the frame.
[0013] Furthermore, the base is provided with wheels at the bottom, and the base is provided with a driving mechanism to drive the wheels.
[0014] Compared with related technologies, this application has the following advantages: (1) The stacking device described in this application enables the fork assembly in the forklift mechanism to be raised and lowered relative to the frame, and a lifting assembly and a weighing assembly are provided in the forklift mechanism. On the one hand, when the fork assembly is in the lowered position, the weighing assembly can be used to weigh the goods on the fork assembly, which enables the forklift mechanism to have a weighing function. Compared with transporting the goods to the weighing equipment for weighing, it can improve the convenience of warehousing work and help improve the efficiency of warehousing work. On the other hand, when weighing is not required, the lifting assembly can be used to make the fork assembly in the raised position, which can also avoid the fork assembly pressing on the weighing assembly for a long time, which will have an adverse effect on the weighing assembly. It can increase the service life of the weighing assembly and also help improve the durability of the stacking equipment.
[0015] (2) A mounting slot is provided on the frame so that the base of the fork assembly is located in the mounting slot, and the base is constrained by the mounting slot to be able to be raised and lowered only in the mounting slot. This enables the fork assembly to be raised and lowered on the frame, and its structure is simple and easy to design and implement.
[0016] (3) The weighing component adopts a weighing sensor set in the mounting slot, which facilitates the arrangement of the weighing component on the rack and also facilitates the automated processing of the weight of goods, further improving the convenience of warehousing work.
[0017] (4) The lifting assembly uses a cylinder mounted on the frame. The technology is mature, the equipment cost is low, and the space occupied is small, which makes it easy to arrange on the frame.
[0018] (5) The cylinder is located at the bottom of the frame, and the end of the cylinder rod that can abut against the base is located in the mounting groove. This makes full use of the relatively ample space at the bottom of the frame, which further facilitates the arrangement of the cylinder on the frame. At the same time, it simplifies the arrangement structure of the cylinder on the frame, which helps to reduce the design and manufacturing cost of the frame.
[0019] By installing clamping blocks on the frame, and when the fork assembly is in the raised position, the cylinder rod can cooperate with the clamping blocks to clamp the fork assembly, which can increase the positional stability of the fork assembly in the raised position and help ensure the smoothness of the fork assembly in picking up or stacking goods.
[0020] (6) The fork assembly adopts telescopic forks, which allows the forks in the fork assembly to have a larger extension length, thereby improving the working capacity of the fork assembly and better adapting to the working needs of different scenarios.
[0021] (7) By setting a protective frame on the frame and making the fork assembly located in the receiving space based on the protective frame, the collision between the fork assembly and the goods picked up and external facilities can be avoided during the tooling process, which is conducive to improving the safety of the fork assembly and the goods picked up.
[0022] (8) The frame is raised and lowered along the base by rollers that abut against the guide column, and the rollers are in multiple groups with different orientations. The rolling contact between the frame and the base reduces the friction between the frame and the base during the raising and lowering process, which can increase the smoothness of the frame raising and lowering movement. At the same time, the use of multiple groups of rollers with different orientations can also effectively prevent the frame from falling off the guide column, which is conducive to ensuring the stability of the frame raising and lowering movement relative to the base.
[0023] (9) The lifting drive mechanism adopts a rotary drive unit and a transmission chain driven by the rotary drive unit. The structure is simple, easy to design and assemble, and also helps to ensure the smoothness of the lifting movement of the forklift mechanism.
[0024] (10) By setting a walking wheel at the bottom of the base and a walking drive mechanism to drive the walking wheel, the stacking device can have the function of walking and carrying, which can greatly improve the quality of use of the stacking device. Attached Figure Description

[0026] To make the technical solution and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

In addition, if terms such as "first" or "second" appear, they are also used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0029] Furthermore, in the description of this application, unless otherwise expressly defined, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "connector" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application in light of the specific circumstances.
[0030] In this application, the terms "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "example," "specific example," or "some examples," etc., refer to a specific feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with that embodiment or example, which is included in at least one embodiment or example of this application. In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples.
[0031] The present application will now be described in detail through exemplary embodiments. However, it should be understood that, without further description, elements, structures, and features in one embodiment may be advantageously incorporated into other embodiments.
[0032] The embodiments of this application provide a stacking device for forking or stacking goods. Through its innovative structural design, the stacking device of this embodiment can improve the convenience of warehousing operations, increase warehousing efficiency, and also enhance the durability of the stacking equipment.
[0033] In related technologies, some goods, such as spools in the wire harness manufacturing industry, need to be weighed before use. For these goods requiring weighing, warehouse personnel typically move the goods to the weighing equipment first when using stacking devices, and then move them to subsequent processes or stack them on shelves. This undoubtedly increases the space and time occupied, causing significant inconvenience to warehousing operations and hindering the improvement of warehousing efficiency.
[0034] In view of this, in order to overcome the shortcomings of related technologies, the stacking device in this embodiment combines... Figures 1 to 11 As shown, the overall design includes a base 1, a lifting drive mechanism 2 mounted on the base 1, and a forklift mechanism 3 that is lifted and lowered relative to the base 1 under the drive of the lifting drive mechanism 2.
[0035] The forklift mechanism 3 includes a frame 301, and a fork assembly 304, a lifting assembly 306 and a weighing assembly 308 mounted on the frame 301. The fork assembly 304 is configured to be able to lift and lower relative to the frame 301, while the lifting assembly 307 and the weighing assembly 308 are located below the fork assembly 304.
[0036] Furthermore, driven by the lifting component 307, the fork assembly 304 can switch between the raised position and the lowered position. In the lowered position, the fork assembly 304 is supported on the weighing component 308 and can be weighed by the weighing component 308.
[0037] Therefore, with the above configuration, by allowing the fork assembly 304 in the forklift mechanism 3 to be raised and lowered relative to the frame 301, and by providing a lifting assembly 307 and a weighing assembly 308 in the forklift mechanism 3, this embodiment not only allows the weighing assembly 308 to weigh the goods on the fork assembly 304 when the fork assembly 304 is in the lowered position, but also enables the forklift mechanism 3 to have a weighing function. Compared with the existing method of moving goods to a weighing device for weighing, this improves the convenience of warehousing work and helps to improve the efficiency of warehousing work.
[0038] Meanwhile, in this embodiment, when weighing is not required, the lifting component 307 can be used to raise the fork component 304 to avoid the fork component 304 pressing on the weighing component 308 for a long time, which would have an adverse effect on the weighing component 308. This can increase the service life of the weighing component 308 and also improve the durability of the stacking equipment.
[0039] Based on the above overview, specifically, it is worth noting that, continuing as follows... Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the base 1 in this embodiment may include, for example, a base 101 and a guide column 102 fixed to the base 101. The base 101 serves as the bottom foundation of the entire base 1, and the guide column 102 is mainly used to guide the forklift mechanism 3 to rise and fall relative to the base 1. Additionally, in some embodiments, a tooling table 4 and a guardrail 5 located on one side of the guide column 102 may also be provided in the base 1.
[0040] The tooling table 4 is located near the top of the guide column 102 and can be fixed to the guide column 102. The guardrail 5 is located below the workbench 4 and can be fixed between the workbench 4 and the base 101. In addition, multiple guardrails 5 can be set in different directions. In this way, by setting guardrails 5, a safe area can be enclosed on the base 1. The electrical control devices of the stacking device and other structures can be set in this safe area. At the same time, the guardrails 5 can also be used as ladders to allow workers to climb onto the workbench 4 so that they can perform some necessary high-altitude operations on the workbench 4.
[0041] In this embodiment, in some exemplary implementations, the following continues to be combined Figures 4 to 8 as well as Figure 11 As shown, based on the guide column 102 vertically arranged on the base 1, the frame 301 in the forklift mechanism 3 can be raised and lowered along the base 1 by means of rollers 303 that abut against the guide column 102, and the rollers 303 can also be configured to face different directions in multiple groups.
[0042] At this point, it is understandable that the frame 301 is raised and lowered along the guide post 102 in the base 1 by the rollers 303 that abut against the guide post 102, and the rollers 303 are in multiple sets with different orientations. The rolling contact between the frame 301 and the guide post 102 reduces the friction between the frame 301 and the guide post 102 during the raising and lowering process, which can increase the smoothness of the raising and lowering movement of the frame 301. At the same time, the use of multiple sets of rollers 303 with different orientations can also effectively prevent the frame 301 from falling off the guide post 102, which is conducive to ensuring the stability of the raising and lowering movement of the frame 301 relative to the base 1.
[0043] In a specific implementation, for example, a lifting seat 302 can be provided on one side of the frame 301, and each roller 303 can be mounted on the lifting seat 302. Furthermore, for multiple sets of rollers 303 facing different directions, as an example, it may include a first roller group 3031 and a second roller group 3032.
[0044] In this design, the rotation axis of roller 303 in the first roller group 3031 is perpendicular to the rotation axis of roller 303 in the second roller group 3032. The first roller group 3031 specifically cooperates with the guide plate 102a on the side of the guide post 102. By positioning the guide plate 102a between the two rollers 303 in the first roller group 3031, the lifting seat 302, i.e., the frame 301, is guided in its lifting and lowering motion. The rollers 303 in the second roller group 3032 directly abut against the side of the guide post 102, thus providing guidance and also cooperating with the first roller group 3031 to constrain the lifting seat 302, i.e., the frame 301, to only be able to move up and down along the guide post 102.
[0045] In this embodiment, it remains the same. Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments, the lifting drive mechanism 2 may include, for example, a rotary drive unit 201 and a transmission chain 202 driven by the rotary drive unit 201. The two ends of the transmission chain 202 are wound around the base 1 and connected to the frame 301 in the forklift mechanism 3.
[0046] At this point, the lifting drive mechanism 2 adopts a rotary drive unit 201 and a transmission chain 202 driven by the rotary drive unit 201. Obviously, it has the advantages of simple structure and easy design and assembly. At the same time, the transmission chain 202 is used to drive the lifting of the forklift mechanism 3, which also helps to ensure the smoothness of the lifting movement of the forklift mechanism 3.
[0047] In practical implementation, the aforementioned rotary drive unit 201 can generally be a motor mounted on the base 101, and a reducer is also provided at the output end of the motor to drive the transmission chain 202 to rotate after deceleration. The two ends of the transmission chain 202 can be mounted on the guide post 102 via sprockets. See also... Figure 11 As shown, the transmission chain 202 can also be connected to two connecting seats 3021 distributed vertically in the lifting seat 302 to achieve the connection with the frame 301.
[0048] In this embodiment, we continue to combine Figures 7 to 10 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments, to enable the fork assembly 304 to be raised and lowered on the frame 301, for example, a mounting slot 306a may be provided on the frame 301, and the fork assembly 304 may also have a base 3041 located in the mounting slot 306a, thereby constraining the fork assembly 304 to be raised and lowered only relative to the frame 301.
[0049] Thus, it can be understood that by setting a mounting slot 306a on the frame 301, the base 3041 of the fork assembly 304 is located in the mounting slot 306a, and the base 3041 is constrained by the mounting slot 306a to be able to be raised and lowered only within the mounting slot 306a, the fork assembly 304 can be raised and lowered on the frame 301, and it has the advantages of simple structure and easy design and implementation.
[0050] In specific implementation, it is worth noting that, as an example, the aforementioned mounting groove 306a may be formed by a mounting base 306 in the frame 301, and to enable the base 3041 to be raised and lowered in the mounting groove 306a, a base plate 30411 may be provided at the bottom of the base 3041.
[0051] The shape of the base plate 30411 matches the mounting slot 306a and is slightly smaller than the mounting slot 306a. Thus, by utilizing the two oppositely arranged mounting slots 306a on the frame 301 and the two oppositely arranged base plates 30411 on the base 3041, each base plate 30411 is set in its corresponding mounting slot 306a, thereby enabling the base 3041, i.e. the fork assembly 304, to be raised and lowered on the mounting slot 306a, i.e. the frame 301.
[0052] It should be noted that when the fork assembly 304 is raised or lowered relative to the frame 301, the guide effect on the base plate 30411, i.e., the base 3041, is mainly achieved by the side wall of the mounting groove 306a. In some feasible embodiments, a guide mechanism can be further provided between the frame 301 and the base 3041. This guide mechanism includes a guide rod disposed on one of the frame 301 and the base 3041, and a guide hole disposed on the other. The guide rod is vertically arranged and inserted into the guide hole. The guide rod and guide hole work together to reduce the possibility of collision between the base plate 30411 and the side wall of the mounting groove 306a, thereby improving the smoothness of the raising and lowering of the fork assembly 304.
[0053] In a specific implementation, taking the aforementioned guide rod set on the base 3041 and the aforementioned guide hole set on the frame 301 as an example, the guide rod can be fixed to the bottom of the base plate 30411, and the guide hole can be arranged on the mounting base 306, located at the bottom of the mounting groove 306a. However, when setting the above guide rod and guide hole, care should be taken to avoid interference with the lifting assembly 307 and weighing assembly 308 set on the frame 301.
[0054] In this embodiment, it remains the same. Figure 8As shown, in some exemplary embodiments, the weighing component 308 may, for example, employ a load cell disposed in the mounting slot 306a, and the base 3041 is supported on the load cell when the fork assembly 304 is in the lowered position.
[0055] Understandably, the use of a load cell in the mounting slot 306a for the weighing assembly 308 facilitates its placement on the frame 301. Furthermore, the connection between the load cell and related control devices facilitates the automated processing of cargo weight, thereby further enhancing the convenience of warehousing operations.
[0056] This embodiment still refers to Figure 8 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments, the lifting assembly 307 may include, for example, a cylinder mounted on the frame 301. When the cylinder rod extends, it can abut against the base 3041 and drive the fork assembly 304 to rise to the raised position. When the cylinder rod retracts, the fork assembly 304 can descend to the lowered position and has a preset gap with the cylinder rod.
[0057] It is understandable that the lifting assembly 307 uses a cylinder mounted on the frame 301, which has the advantages of mature technology, low equipment cost, small cylinder space occupation, and easy arrangement on the frame 301.
[0058] Furthermore, in specific implementations, in some exemplary embodiments, the cylinder is preferably located at the bottom of the frame 301 and specifically disposed at the bottom of the mounting base 306, while the end of the cylinder rod that can abut against the base 3041 is also located in the mounting groove 306a.
[0059] In this way, by positioning the cylinder at the bottom of the mounting base 306 in the frame 301, and ensuring that the end of the cylinder rod that abuts against the base 3041 is located in the mounting groove 306a, the ample space at the bottom of the frame 301 can be fully utilized, further facilitating the arrangement of the cylinder on the frame 301. At the same time, compared to arranging the cylinder in other positions, this obviously simplifies the cylinder arrangement structure on the frame 301 and eliminates the need for a structure on the base 3041 for abutting the cylinder rod, thus reducing the design and manufacturing costs of the frame 301 and the base 3041.
[0060] In some exemplary embodiments of this embodiment, a clamping block 309 may also be provided on the frame 301, which is located above the base 3041, and when the fork assembly 304 is in the raised position, the cylinder rod of the cylinder may also cooperate with the clamping block 309 to clamp the fork assembly 304.
[0061] At this time, by setting a clamping block 309 on the frame 301, and when the fork assembly 304 is in the raised position, the fork assembly 304 can be clamped by the cooperation of the raised cylinder rod and the clamping block 309. This embodiment can increase the positional stability of the fork assembly 304 in the raised position, which helps to ensure the smoothness of the fork assembly 304 picking up or stacking goods.
[0062] For specific implementation, see Figure 7 As shown, as an example, the clamping block 309 can be fixed to the top of the frame 301, and clamping blocks 309 are respectively provided at each mounting slot 306a. In addition, when the fork assembly 304 is lifted to the raised position by the lifting assembly 307, the base plate 30411 in the base 3041 can abut against the clamping block 309, so that the cylinder rods on the upper and lower sides of the base plate 30411 and the clamping block 30411 can be used to clamp the fork assembly 304.
[0063] In this embodiment, combined with Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments, the fork assembly 304 may be, for example, a telescopic fork, and the fork 3042 in the fork assembly 304 and the drive system 3043 that drives the fork to extend and retract are disposed on the base 3041.
[0064] In specific implementation, the fork assembly 304 can be a product with an existing telescopic fork with two-stage forks 3042. Furthermore, it is understood that using telescopic forks in the fork assembly 304 allows the forks 3042 to have a larger extension length, improving the working capacity of the fork assembly 304 and enabling it to better adapt to the working needs of different scenarios.
[0065] In this embodiment, the following continues... Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some exemplary embodiments, a protective frame 305 may be provided on the frame 301, and the protective frame 305 forms a receiving space Q above the frame 301. The fork assembly 304 is located in the receiving space Q, and the forks 3042 of the fork assembly 304 can extend from one side of the protective frame 305 for picking up or stacking goods.
[0066] It is understandable that by setting a protective frame 305 on the frame 301, and with the protective frame 305 forming a receiving space Q, the fork assembly 304 is located in the receiving space Q, which can prevent the fork assembly 304 and the goods being forked from colliding with external facilities during the tooling process, thus improving the safety of the fork assembly 304 and the goods being forked.
[0067] In this embodiment, it is worth noting that, for example, a support leg can be provided on the base 101 of the aforementioned base 1, so that the entire stacking device remains stationary while goods are picked up and stacked in a fixed position.
[0068] However, as a preferred embodiment, in some exemplary embodiments, this embodiment may also have a base 1 with wheels at the bottom and a driving mechanism for driving the wheels on the base 1.
[0069] The aforementioned traveling wheels and traveling drive mechanism can both be existing mature products. Furthermore, it is understood that by installing traveling wheels at the bottom of the base 1 and providing a traveling drive mechanism to propel the wheels, the stacking device can acquire traveling and transporting capabilities, significantly improving its usability.
[0070] It is worth noting that, regarding the stacking device of this embodiment, based on the above exemplary implementations, in specific implementation, as a preferred embodiment, it is still composed of... Figures 1 to 11 As shown, it may include, for example, a base 1, a lifting drive mechanism 2 disposed on the base 1, and a forklift mechanism 3 that is lifted and lowered relative to the base 1 under the drive of the lifting drive mechanism 2.
[0071] The forklift mechanism 3 includes a frame 301, and a fork assembly 304, a lifting assembly 306, and a weighing assembly 308 mounted on the frame 301. The base 3041 of the fork assembly 304 is located in a mounting slot 306a on the frame 301, allowing the fork assembly 304 to rise and fall relative to the frame 301. The lifting assembly 307 and the weighing assembly 308 are located below the fork assembly 304. The lifting assembly 307 uses a cylinder mounted on the frame 301, and the weighing assembly 308 uses a load cell mounted in the mounting slot 306a. The end of the cylinder rod that abuts against the fork assembly 304 is also located in the mounting slot 306a.
[0072] In addition, a clamping block is provided on the frame 301 to cooperate with the cylinder to clamp the fork assembly 304. The fork assembly 304 adopts telescopic forks and is equipped with wheels and a travel drive mechanism on the base 1. Driven by the lifting component 3047, the fork assembly 304 can switch between the raised position and the lowered position. In the lowered position, the fork assembly 304 is supported on the weighing component 308 and can be weighed by the weighing component 308.
