Description

Lifting system and fork type AGV
Technical Field
The invention relates to a lifting system and a fork type AGV.
Background
The lifting system of present common fork AGV car has: hydraulic lifting systems and electric lifting systems. The hydraulic lifting system drives the hydraulic pump through the motor, and the on-off of the oil way is controlled through the hydraulic valve group, so that the stretching of the lifting hydraulic cylinder is controlled, and the lifting of the fork is realized. Hydraulic lifting systems are commonly used in pallet stackers, and the fork AGVs retrofitted from pallet stackers, are the largest in number in the industry. The electric lifting system is commonly provided with a screw rod lifting system and a chain lifting transmission. The screw rod lifting system generally connects the screw rod with a driving motor, the nut and the fork are relatively fixed, and the nut and the fork are lifted and lowered by driving the screw rod to rotate through the motor. The chain of the chain lifting system is arranged on the driving chain wheel and the driven chain wheel, the driving chain wheel is driven to rotate through the motor, the chain is driven to move around the chain wheel, the pallet fork and the chain are relatively fixed, and the lifting can be achieved along with the movement of the chain.
However, the above hydraulic lifting system has the following disadvantages:
1) the lifting speed is not high. The full load lifting speed of the pallet stacker and the AGV transformed by the pallet stacker in the current market is about 0.1-0.15 m/s;
2) the rate of descent cannot be controlled. According to the common tray stacker and the hydraulic lifting system for transforming the AGV in the current market, the principle of a hydraulic valve group determines that only the lifting speed can be controlled, the descending speed cannot be controlled, and the descending speed mainly depends on the load weight.
3) The stop position accuracy is not high. The stop position precision of the hydraulic lifting system is usually 2-3 mm, and accurate stop cannot be realized.
4) Periodic maintenance and replacement of spare parts is required. The hydraulic lifting system needs to replace hydraulic oil, filter elements and vent plugs regularly, otherwise the working performance is easy to decline.
5) There is a risk of leakage. If the hydraulic lifting system is not enough in sealing condition, oil leakage is easy to occur, and the working environment is polluted, so that the hydraulic lifting system is not suitable for working conditions with high requirements on cleanliness.
The screw rod lifting system has the following defects:
1) the load capacity is small. The lead screw has a helix angle which affects the lifting bearing capacity and the lifting speed, and in order to meet the requirement of higher lifting speed, the helix angle cannot be too small, so the bearing weight cannot be too large. Therefore, lead screw lifting systems are typically used in lighter cargo conditions.
2) Has higher requirement on environmental cleanliness. If metal chips or particles exist in the working environment, when the metal chips or particles are rolled into the screw-nut pair, thread damage can be caused, and the movement precision is further influenced.
The chain lifting system has the following defects: the transmission stability is poor. The structural characteristics of the chain drive determine that the instantaneous speed and the instantaneous transmission ratio are variable and therefore shock and noise are present.
