Referring to fig. 1 to 8, in order to realize the structural integral linkage of the roller unit 4 and the fork unit 2, the present invention provides a fork assembly of a handling apparatus, which includes: the lifting device comprises a lifting module 1, a fork unit 2, a link mechanism 3 and a roller unit 4, wherein the fork unit 2 comprises; the lifting module 1 in the example is a lifting hydraulic/oil cylinder, thereby, through the link mechanism 3, only the lifting/lowering movement of the lifting module 1 is controlled, the roller unit 4 can be simultaneously linked to perform retraction/release movement and the fork unit 2 can perform lifting/lowering movement, so that the roller unit 4 and the fork unit 2 can form synchronous and integrated linkage to ensure the consistency of each linkage unit, the rhythm is controllable, the interference among mechanisms and the problem of program phase executing cannot occur, and the reliability and stability are extremely high.
Specifically, in order to achieve the above-described interlocking effect of the link mechanism 3, the lifting/lowering movement of the lifting module 1 is actually performed by interlocking conversion of different movement directions by the link mechanism 3, so that, as shown in fig. 1 to 4, in this example, the link mechanism 3 preferably includes: the lifting link 31, the swing link 32 and the pull rod 33, wherein the swing link 32 is provided with P, N, B angular ends extending towards three different directions so as to form triangular vertex-shaped distribution, a first end (namely a third driving end of the link mechanism 3) of the lifting link 31 is in driving connection with a lifting end of the lifting module 1, a second end is in rotating connection with a P angular end of the swing link 32, each rotating connection in the example can be understood as a rotating shaft connection, a first end of the connecting arm 23 is in rotating connection with an N angular end (namely a second driving end of the link mechanism 3) of the swing link 32, and a first end of the pull rod 33 is in rotating connection with a B angular end of the swing link 32.
Through the design, the N-angle end of the swing rod 32 can be smartly used as a supporting point capable of lifting and rotating, at the moment, when the swing rod 32 is lifted/lowered by the lifting module 1 connected with the P-angle end, the N-angle end can synchronously lift/lower, so that conditions are created for lifting/lowering the linkage fork unit 2, and as shown in fig. 9 to 10, the P-angle end of the swing rod 32 can swing with the N-angle end as the supporting point, namely between the P1 position point and the P2 position point, so that the transmission traction is carried out, on one hand, the fork unit 2 connected with the N-angle end can be lifted/lowered to be linked, meanwhile, the B-angle end can also be linked to swing between the B1 position point and the B2 position point by taking the N-angle end as the supporting point, and then the linkage pull rod 33 can stretch/retract to provide transmission conditions for the linkage roller unit 4.
Further, as shown in fig. 2 to 8, in order to realize that the roller unit 4 can be integrally linked together with the pallet fork unit 2 to retract/retract at the fork teeth 22, the present example provides an exemplary scheme of hiding the roller unit 4 in the fork teeth 22 so that the fork teeth 22 can stably support the tray, wherein the abdomen of the fork teeth 22 is provided with a linking groove 221 to at least partially receive the roller unit 4 and the pull rod 33, wherein the roller unit 4 includes: the wheel frame 41 and the roller 42, wherein the wheel frame 41 is provided with M, A, C angular ends extending to three different directions so as to form triangular vertex-shaped distribution.
The C-angle end of the wheel frame 41 is forked and is rotatably connected with the roller 42, wherein the roller 42 can adopt a roller group or a single-wheel structure in an alternative example, the M-angle end of the wheel frame 41 is rotatably connected with the support at the linkage groove 221 of the fork 22 to form a rotation pivot, as shown in fig. 8, the a-angle end of the wheel frame 41 is rotatably connected with the second end (i.e. the first transmission end of the link mechanism 3) of the pull rod 33, and the pull rod 33 is connected with the second end in a stretching/shrinking manner, so that the second end of the pull rod 33 can swing between the A1 position point and the A2 position point, and the C-angle end can swing between the C2 position point and the C1 position point by taking the M-angle end as the pivot, so as to drive the roller 42 to stretch/retract from the linkage groove 221.
It should be noted that, in order to avoid the interference of the pull rod 33 during the linkage process, and meanwhile, the movable wheel frame 41 can be greatly swung in the linkage groove 221 of the narrow fork tooth 22, as shown in fig. 6 and 8, wherein the pull rod 33 is accommodated in the linkage groove 221, the first end and the second end of the pull rod 33 have arc-shaped fall relative to the rod body of the pull rod 33, so as to allow the first end of the pull rod 33 to swing in an arc shape (swing between the positions B1 and B2) below the N-angle end of the swing rod 32 during the transmission, and the second end of the pull rod 33 swings in an arc shape (swing between the positions A1 and A2) below the M-angle end of the wheel frame 41. In order to ensure the consistency of the synchronization of the fork unit 2 and the roller unit 4, the link mechanism 3 is preferably arranged in parallel with the center line L1 of the B, N angular end of the swing link 32 equidistant from the center line L2 of the M, A angular end of the wheel frame 41.
Through the design, the link mechanism 3 can form swinging extension/retraction linkage between the pull rod 33 and the wheel frame 41 and the swing rod 32 in a narrow space so as to swing slightly, and after the pull rod 33 is driven to extend/retract, the wheel frame 41 is driven to swing greatly, so that the linkage roller unit 4 is retracted/released at the linkage groove 221 of the fork tooth 22, meanwhile, due to the floating form of the rod body of the pull rod 33, the pull rod 33 can be hidden in the abdomen of the fork tooth 22 in a smaller space, thereby greatly reducing the space setting requirement of the abdomen linkage groove 221 of the fork tooth 22, saving the cost, and ensuring that the abdomen of the fork tooth 22 is not blocked any more as long as the position of the hidden roller unit 4 at the front part of the fork tooth 22 is controlled to pass through the tray, so that a sufficient adjusting space is reserved for the extension of the fork tooth 22 into the tray.
In addition, in order to further improve the consistency of linkage synchronization of the link mechanism 3 and the reliability of the transmission structure, in an alternative example, the swing rods 32 are connected via a synchronization shaft 321 to form synchronization, and in a preferred example, two ends of the synchronization shaft 321 are respectively connected near the P-angle end of each swing rod 32.
Further, in order to enhance the stability of the transmission structure between the link mechanism 3 and the fork unit 2, as shown in fig. 9 to 14, in an alternative example, the fork assembly of the handling apparatus further includes: a guide mechanism, wherein examples of the guide mechanism include: the guide member and the guided member are exemplified by the guide wheel 5 and the roller slide rail 6 in this embodiment, and those skilled in the art may implement other equivalent alternatives, such as a slider and a ball guide scheme, so that other alternative embodiments of the guiding mechanism are within the scope of the disclosure without departing from the concept of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 11 to 14, the roller rail 6 may be fixed on a carrying device, where the carrying device may be a carrying device on which the fork assembly of the present invention may be installed, in which the roller rail 6 may be connected to a frame 8 on the carrying device, and the guide wheel 5 is connected to a first end of the lifting link 31, where the guide wheel 5 is coupled to the roller rail 6, so that the guide wheel 5 is constrained by the roller rail 6, and the first end of the lifting link 31 will move along the guiding direction of the guide member, so as to ensure that the moving track during the linkage of the first end will not deviate, so as to enhance the structural stability of the transmission mechanism.
Further, in order to prevent the link mechanism 3 from collapsing or damaging the structure due to excessive driving, in an alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 13 to 14, the linkage arm 23 is further provided with a carrying table 231, and the position on the structure frame where the roller rail 6 is located on the lifting/lowering path of the carrying table 231, and when the fork unit 2 is lifted to the limit, the carrying table 231 is abutted against the roller rail 6.
Specifically, because the roller slide rail 6 is fixed in position on the structure frame, the guide wheel 5 at the first end of the lifting connecting rod 31 is ensured to be displaced at the position point between the S2 and the S1 in the lifting process by presetting the track length of the roller slide rail 6, so that the preset lifting limit distance is reserved between the bearing table 231 and the bottom of the roller slide rail 6 while the track cannot be separated, the roller slide rail 6 can be used as a safety limit, the guiding and limiting effects can be realized at the same time, the transmission limit is avoided, and the transmission reliability of the mechanism is improved.
Further, in order to better guide the lifting track of the fork unit 2, the stability of the transmission structure between the link mechanism 3 and the fork unit 2 is enhanced, in an alternative example, as shown in fig. 13 to 14, a bracket 211 is further provided on the back plate 21 of the fork unit 2, the guide wheel 5 is connected to one side of the bracket 211, the guide member is a double-sided roller sliding rail or is formed by attaching a pair of roller sliding rails 6 back to back, and the brackets 211 and the guide wheels 5 on the first end of the lifting link 31 are respectively matched with the sliding rails on the two sides of the double-sided roller sliding rail, so that each guide wheel 5 is constrained by the double-sided roller sliding rail, and the fork unit 2 and the first end of the link together move along the guiding direction of the double-sided roller sliding rail.
Further, since the top surface of the fork teeth 22 generates surface friction when the pallet is being fork-fetched, and thus, in order to skillfully utilize the retractable/setting characteristics of the roller unit 4, as shown in fig. 1 to 14, in an alternative example, a skylight 222 is provided on the fork teeth 22 at the position where the roller unit 4 is received, by setting the diameter size of the roller, when the roller unit 4 is received in the linkage groove 221, the roller 42 can be at least partially protruded from the skylight 222 to the outside of the fork teeth 22. Therefore, when the fork teeth 22 fork the tray to pass through the position of the skylight 222, the roller 42 is driven to rotate, so that the friction resistance between the fork teeth 22 and the tray is reduced, and the smooth insertion of the fork teeth 22 into the tray is facilitated.
In summary, through the fork assembly of the handling equipment provided by the invention, the linkage structure of the lifting module 1, the fork unit 2, the link mechanism 3 and the roller unit 4 is skillfully designed, so that the integrated linkage of the roller unit 4 and the fork unit 2 is realized in a compact space, the synergy of each linkage unit is ensured, and the reliability is superior to that of the linkage control scheme of a plurality of independent mechanisms. In addition, as shown in fig. 15 to 17, by this scheme, the fork unit 2 is in a non-lifted state, the roller unit 4 is in a contracted state, so that the fork teeth 22 can be in a suspended state when entering the field-shaped tray 7, and after the fork teeth 22 are in place, the fork unit 2 is lifted and adjusted at this time, the roller unit 4 can be integrally linked to extend out of the ground, so that the fork teeth 22 and the roller can be prevented from impacting with the field-shaped tray 7 during the loading/unloading operation, and the field-shaped tray is particularly adapted. In addition, after the fork unit 2 lifts the carrying tray, the roller unit 4 can also provide bearing support for the fork teeth 22, so as to further improve the freight operation stability.
