MECHANICAL LOAD REDUCER

Abstract

The invention relates to a multipurpose and ergonomic mechanical load lowerer that operates entirely on mechanical principles, enabling the safe and incremental lowering of loads to the ground, featuring pallet carrying arms (3), a locking gear turning arm (1), a chain gear transmission mechanism (6), braked steering wheels (4), a weight-sensing spring system (5) and a main carrier body frame (2), which is manually operated without requiring energy and provides portability on different surface conditions, allowing the load to be moved incrementally by gravity over inclined platforms, warning the user if the load exceeds its carrying capacity, offering low-cost production and maintenance advantages, requiring no user training, and applicable in all types of logistics, warehouse, field and operational environments.

Description

1 TARIFF MECHANICAL LOAD REDUCER Technical Area 5 The invention describes the movement of palletized loads without the use of any electrical or hydraulic system. fully mechanical system that ensures safe and controlled lowering to the ground. designed with a human-operated, lockable structure to prevent uncontrolled discharge. 10 portable, energy-free devices with a geared turning handle, suitable for warehouse and field use. mechanical load carriers offer an economical and safe alternative for unloading goods. is related The Invention's Infrastructure The handling and unloading of palletized loads is crucial for industrial production and logistics. It is one of the fundamental elements of operations. The history of systems developed for this purpose, It dates back especially to the mid-20th century, and first appeared in the 1950s. Motorized forklift and pallet truck systems, which are becoming increasingly common, offer a solution to this need. These systems have been developed to lift loads to high racks and load them onto trucks. It is used in operations such as unloading from vehicles, and over time... They have become industrial standards. Manual pallet trucks, which were developed over time as an alternative to forklifts, are particularly noteworthy. Since the 1970s, in small and medium-sized enterprises, in narrow spaces and under 25 It has begun to be preferred in bulk cargo handling operations. However, both systems... Suitable only for transporting and lifting functions, controlled removal of palletized loads from the vehicle. It offers the user limited options for downloading in this way. Therefore, Unloading pallets safely from trucks or similar vehicles is still risky. It is a process. 30 Among the loading and unloading systems available on the market today are fixed ramp systems. mobile inclined sleds, hydraulic platforms, crane lifting equipment and wheeled rails These systems are available. However, all of these systems are either very expensive or... 2 It requires regular maintenance or creates a need for special space and infrastructure. Fixed ramps take up a lot of space and are designed according to vehicle height. They cannot be adjusted. Hydraulic systems, on the other hand, are energy-dependent and have maintenance costs. The height is high. Also, uncontrolled incline systems or sliding platforms, This causes the load to shift suddenly, jeopardizing both material and user safety. It puts it at risk. National project with application number 2021 / 019509 and titled “New Generation Elevator Pallet Truck” The patent application includes the ability to lift loads to certain heights for both unloading and transporting. By providing this, it will reduce workload and time loss, and address the shortage of manpower in 10 areas. This product is designed to provide ease of use and efficiency for handling heavy loads. The mechanical load reducer invention was developed to address all these problems. operating entirely on mechanical principles, independent of external energy, and low It is a portable system that can be produced at a low cost. 15 to be unloaded from high-vehicle transport vehicles. It is possible to lower the pallets to the ground safely under the control of one person. It makes it possible. One of the most notable innovations of the mechanical load lowering invention is the interlocking gear turning lever. The goal is to ensure the load is lowered gradually and evenly. This lever, pallet 20 The gear mechanism that moves the carrying handles is connected to the system and is only accessible to the user. It can rotate with the command. Thus, the load moves over the inclined rails by the effect of gravity. While gliding, thanks to arm control, the speed is constant and it can be stopped. It is able to descend. This feature is not available in current sliding systems and this This situation is one of the key technical advantages that distinguishes the invention from existing products. 25 Additionally, the system includes braked steering wheels that allow the device to be positioned as desired. It allows for easy transport while also ensuring the load is secured during unloading. This feature allows the device to reverse on sloping surfaces, at the top of hills, or when climbing ramps. This prevents it from slipping, which is a critical detail for the operator's safety. 30 is happening. The invention also includes a weight-sensing spring that warns the user about the load limit. The system includes a mechanical stress system that applies when the load-carrying capacity is exceeded. 3 It creates a response or gives an audible warning to the user. In current solutions... There is no such early warning system; it generally relies on user experience and intuition. Control is performed based on this. This innovation prevents overloading caused by user error. This prevents further damage and extends the mechanical life of the device. The advantages of the mechanical load reducer invention can be listed as follows: • Energy independence: The invention requires no electrical or hydraulic systems. It is not audible; it is entirely mechanical. • Gradual and safe lowering: The geared lever in the invention controls the lowering speed of the load. It can be controlled and sudden ejaculations can be prevented. 10 • Locking mechanism: Provides one-way movement and prevents recoil or falling. It eliminates the risk. • Portability and stability: Mobile thanks to the braked wheel system. However, it has a structure that can be fixed during download. • Load limit warning: Weight-sensing spring system warns of 15 seconds if user capacity is exceeded. They are being informed accordingly. • Low cost and maintenance-free: The invention is for electronic components. Because it does not involve anything else, maintenance costs are low. • Compact and modular design: Easy to store, flexible to manufacture. It has. 20 • Wide range of applications: From small businesses to logistics centers, everywhere. It can be used in areas of varying scales. The purpose of this invention is to protect workers, especially those operating forklifts, during loading and unloading. 25 products loaded onto pallets that are not available and must be unloaded by hand. to protect against injuries resulting from dropping and lifting heavy loads, also making it accessible to all businesses by reducing costs and time spent. to provide. The structural and characteristic features and all the advantages of the invention are given in Figure 30 below. And thanks to the detailed explanation provided, it will be understood more clearly, and therefore... This assessment is also made taking these figures and detailed explanations into consideration.
