Definitions

  • This present invention relates to a device for collecting and clamping loads for lift trucks or the like that allow to hoist and handle loads in the form of packages and, in particular, packed household appliances, inside warehouses and storehouses where goods are stored.
  • the innovation in question finds specific application in the sector of storage and handling of large household appliances such as refrigerators, dishwashers, washing machines but also small appliances such as microwave ovens, televisions or any other package that is usually but not necessarily prismatic in form, to be moved both individually and together with others.
  • lift trucks are self-propelled machines designed to handle packages mainly in storage warehouses or storehouses containing materials of a wide variety of types.
  • Known lift trucks include, on their fronts, plates which permit them to grasp packages to be handled only if said packages have vertical dimensions comparable to those of the plates, to avoid the packages from slipping out or being crushed given that no uniform pressure is being exerted on their side surfaces by the plates.
  • a collecting and clamping device that permits hoisting and movement of one or more loads of whatever shape, and in particular loads that are prismatic in shape, which consists of two vertical opposed plates coupled to sliding elements designed to slide on horizontal guides in a manner controlled by the user by specific controls.
  • Said sliding elements are placed in a central position with respect to said plates, each of which includes at least one grasping jaw with at least two pressure elements and a grasping segment on which the grasping jaw exerts pressure.
  • Said grasping segment is made of elastic material and it can be preloaded so that it is placed on a basically concave surface with respect to said loads generating the technical effect of exerting basically uniform pressure on each point of contact between said grasping segment and said loads.
  • the device is able to hoist and move one or more packages of different size and/or shapes and/or positioned according to whatever layout in the volume that is laterally defined by the two completely outspread plates.
  • the combination of the central position of the sliding elements with respect to the plates and the presence of at least two pressure elements provides uniform distribution, over the area of the grasping segments, of the pressure generated by clamping the plates on the packages to be hoisted and transported so that there are no important specific pressure gradients, with respect to the average value, which could generate either the risk of crushing the packages, if positive, or a less efficient grasping effect on the packages, if negative.
  • the invention is able to exert, on the upper and lower ends of the packages hoisted and transported, compound horizontal and vertical pressure that provides improved retention of the packages.
  • Said preload advantageously provides, in this innovation, a limited but effective elastic deformation capacity by said grasping segments when these clamp on the packages to be hoisted and transported in order to avoid the risk of crushing them.
  • the invention therefore, avoids the risk of package slipping or crushing that exists with the known technique.
  • Number 1 indicates a clamping device that allows to hoist and move loads of whatever shape, and in particular with a basically prismatic form, composed of two vertical opposed plates 2 and 3 each coupled to two sliding elements 4 and 5 each designed to slide on horizontal guides 6 and 7 in a manner controlled by the user by specific controls (not illustrated because they are known).
  • Said sliding elements 4 and 5 are placed in a central position with respect to said plates 2 and 3 which each includes grasping jaw 8, 9 shaped in order to have three separate pressure elements 10, 11 machined in a monolithic body so that they spread out at least forward from each of said grasping jaws 8, 9.
  • Each grasping jaw 8, 9 exerts pressure on a respective grasping segment 12, 13 made of elastic material to which it is connected and designed to be preloaded so that it is placed on a concave surface (not shown in the figures) with respect to said loads, generating the technical effect of exerting basically uniform pressure on each point of contact between said grasping segment 12, 13 and said loads. Consequently the device is able to hoist and move one or more packages of different size and/or shapes and/or positioned according to whatever layout in the volume that is laterally defined by the two completely outspread plates.
  • each grasping segment 12, 13 has a surface suitable for grasping the packages to be transported.
  • the grasping segments 12, 13 are reciprocally facing each other and occupy the same surface area and are consequently symmetrical and specular with respect to the center of gravity of the lift truck on which they are mounted.
  • the grasping segments 12, 13 are made of elastic material and, being preloaded, they have a convex shape which creates a cavity. As a consequence, the invention is able to exert, on the upper and lower ends of the packages hoisted and transported, compound horizontal and vertical pressure that provides improved retention of the packages.
  • Said preload advantageously provides, in this innovation, a limited but effective elastic deformation capacity by said grasping segments 12 and 13 that avoids the risk of crushing the packages when these clamp on the packages to be hoisted and transported.
  • the cavity of the grasping elements 12, 13 lengthens both in horizontal direction and in vertical direction.
  • the vertical radii of curvature are greater than or equal to the horizontal radii of curvature.
  • each of said grasping jaws 10, 11 is coupled and hinged to a covering element 14, 15 using means of connection and fastening, such as, for example a vertical pin, indicated by the reference number 19 in figure 4 , coupled to the front ends of said pressure elements 10 and 11.
  • Said covering element 14, 15, being in contact with the grasping segments 12 and 13, generates a more effective uniform distribution of clamping pressure on grasping segments 12 and 13.
  • said pressure elements 10 and 11 spread out from their relevant grasping jaw 8, 9 like the fingers from the palm of a hand.
  • the pressure elements 10, 11 are partially covered and connected together by specific flat shaped connecting elements 16,16' and 17,17' (see figures 2 and 3 ).
  • the presence of at least one proportional valve or at least one mechanical valve or at least another similar device is advantageously provided and functions to give the pistons the mechanical control to move the plates.
