Loading Platform Abutting Parts Prevent Tipping
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conveyance systems that lift and move loading platforms are prone to tipping over during transportation, posing a risk of instability and rattling.
Innovation Solution
A conveyance system design where the loading platform has abutting parts that contact the lower surface of a conveyance vehicle, providing additional support and stability by lifting the mounting unit from below, with the abutting parts arranged to maximize contact area and prevent tipping.

Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Productivity
If the loading platform is lifted by the conveyance vehicle during conveyance, then the loading platform can be transported, but the loading platform may tip over
Solution Approach 1:
The support function is segmented into multiple abutting parts distributed across the loading platform. These parts are arranged to provide distributed support points that prevent tipping while enabling conveyance, transforming a single-point lift into a multi-point stable support system
Solution Approach 2:
The abutting parts are pre-positioned on the loading platform before conveyance begins. This preliminary arrangement ensures that when the conveyance vehicle lifts the platform, the support structure is already in place to prevent tipping, eliminating the need for reactive stabilization measures

AI summary
A conveyance system that reduces the risk of a loading platform tipping over during conveyance while the loading platform is lifted by a conveyance vehicle is achieved. A conveyance system according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a loading platform including a mounting unit and a conveyance vehicle. The loading platform is conveyed by the conveyance vehicle while the mounting unit is lifted from below by the conveyance vehicle. The loading platform has an abutting part below the mounting unit that abuts a lower surface of the conveyance vehicle when the conveyance vehicle lifts the mounting unit.
