Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a truck-mounted forklift truck.
  • a truck-mounted forklift is usually used in combination with a truck for thereby loading and/or unloading the cargo space of such a truck.
  • Truck-mounted forklifts are known in practice which are brought along by a truck in order to enable independent loading and/or unloading.
  • a truck-mounted forklift is usually provided here with mounting elements whereby the truck-mounted forklift can be mounted on the cargo space, particularly on a truck, and can be brought along by such a truck.
  • the forks of the truck-mounted forklift serve to pick up and/or set down the cargo.
  • Such truck-mounted forklift trucks are provided with a number of wheels, at least some of which are usually mounted on extendable wheel arms.
  • the minimum overhang length i.e. the space necessary behind the truck for mounting of a truck-mounted forklift to be brought along, can hereby remain limited.
  • a problem is here that the extending of the wheel arms for use reduces the robustness of the truck-mounted forklift due to for instance clearance occurring between the extendable parts of a wheel arm. This may result in undesirable situations with additional wear and possibly even unstable cargo on the lifting arms during use.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a truck-mounted forklift truck whereby the above stated problems are obviated or at least reduced, such that the loading and/or unloading of a cargo space using a truck-mounted forklift can be performed more efficiently.
  • truck-mounted forklift truck for loading and/or unloading a cargo space according to the invention, wherein the truck-mounted forklift truck is provided with:
  • the truck-mounted forklift truck can be connected to a truck with cargo space or loading space in simple manner by providing a frame with mounting elements. In this manner a truck-mounted forklift can be brought along during transport and is thereby immediately available for loading and/or unloading using the forks of the truck-mounted forklift. Use need therefore not be made of a forklift truck at the location in question.
  • the truck-mounted forklift is preferably provided here with a mast and associated drive in order to thereby further increase the utility of the truck-mounted forklift. Using the wheels and associated drive the truck-mounted forklift can be displaced over a ground surface, particularly during loading and/or unloading of a truck.
  • the truck-mounted forklift is preferably provided with a steering mechanism with which at least some of the wheels are steerable. It is hereby possible to manoeuvre the truck-mounted forklift in effective manner when displacing cargo.
  • a steering mechanism can take diverse forms, for instance with a gear rack construction or with a steering/turning cylinder.
  • By providing extendable arms the truck-mounted forklift can take a compact form relative to the overhang length. This has the advantage that the space necessary on the rear side of the truck during transport can remain limited. This prevents loading space being lost due to the use of a truck-mounted forklift.
  • the shaped guide according to the invention is configured to align wheel arms in lateral direction for the purpose of extending and preferably retracting thereof.
  • the undesired clearance in lateral direction is prevented or at least reduced. This increases the robustness of the truck-mounted forklift as a whole.
  • the undesired movement of the cargo as a result of clearance in the wheel arms or sub-parts thereof is hereby additionally prevented. This increases the stability of the cargo during displacement with the truck-mounted forklift. This reduces the risk of accidents.
  • wear is reduced and preferably concentrated on the wheel arm guide by the aligned extending and preferably retracting of the wheel arms and wheel arm parts using the shaped guide.
  • the lifespan of the wheel arm and thereby the truck-mounted forklift is hereby increased.
  • the maintenance costs are also reduced.
  • a further particular additional advantage is that inspection of possibly occurring wear is possible in simpler manner owing to the concentration thereof, preferably on the shaped guide.
  • the alignment in a vertical direction during use is ensured by the own weight of the truck-mounted forklift. This provides for alignment of the (sub-)parts of the wheel arm from the underside.
  • the lateral alignment is therefore brought about by the shaped guide.
  • This has the further advantage that relative tolerances for wheel arm parts need not be as precise. This simplifies production and mounting. This is particularly advantageous if wheel arms and wheel arm parts are manufactured from tubular profiles or bent plates. Such production can take place in simpler manner, whereby the cost price of the wheel arms in particular, and the truck-mounted forklift as a whole, can be limited.
  • the shaped guide is preferably provided with a guide groove.
  • This guide groove can be arranged in the outer wheel arm part or the inner wheel arm part.
  • an inner tubular part is provided extendably on an outer tubular profile.
  • These two wheel arm parts are thereby provided extendably and retractably relative to each other.
  • the guide groove is provided on at least one of these two parts.
  • the guide groove is provided on the inner part and a correspondingly shaped part (of the shaped guide) is arranged on the internal surface of the outer part. If desired, this can be attached as a separate part, of another material if desired.
  • the shaped guide is provided on the upper side of the wheel arm, particularly on and/or between the sub-parts of the extendable wheel arm.
  • a further shaped guide is still more preferably provided on the underside of the wheel arm. It is otherwise likewise possible to provide the shaped guide only on the underside. Providing two separate shaped guides, respectively on the underside and the upper side of the wheel arm, improves the guiding still further and intensifies the above stated effects further.
  • a further advantage of providing a shaped guide as separate component, or at least a part of a shaped guide as separate component, is that the shaped guide thereby preferably also functions to concentrate wear and that mounting and removal of the shaped guide is in addition made relatively simple. This makes maintenance and repairs considerably simpler because it is for instance possible to remove and replace this component of the wheel arm in simple manner.
  • the guide is here for instance screwed fixedly to the tubular profile.
  • a further advantage is that by using the guides no additional filling is required on the sides between the separate sub-parts of the wheel arm. This simplifies production and mounting and additionally reduces the resistance during extending or retracting of the wheel arms.
  • the wheel arm is formed wholly or partially from two sub-parts which are mutually connected with at least one lateral weld.
  • Providing separate parts for a sub-part of the wheel arm achieves that, instead of a tubular profile as starting material, it is possible to use sheet material as starting material.
  • This sheet material can be bent in relatively simple manner with for instance an angle bending machine, after which separate parts are then mutually connected, preferably with a longitudinal weld on the side of the wheel arm for thereby providing said lateral weld.
  • a weld is arranged on the side of the inner sub-part of the wheel arm, since alignment is in a currently preferred embodiment realized by providing the guides on the upper side and/or underside of the wheel arm.
  • the weld can be completely welded through, whereby the connection between the separate parts of the inner sub-part of the extendable wheel arm in particular can be made extremely strong and robust.
  • the guide groove is provided with a V-shaped groove.
  • V-shaped groove results in a self-centering, i.e. self-aligning, effect in that during the relative movement the separate sub-parts of the wheel arm are themselves urged into the correct position, and are held therein, by the shape. This results in an effectively guiding element.
  • the V-shaped groove is provided here with two legs which are arranged at an angle in a range of 2-25°, preferably in the range of 5-20°.
  • An effective guide groove which can be realized in simple manner, can hereby be provided. In a currently preferred embodiment it is thus for instance possible to mutually connect two separate parts of an (inner) sub-part of the wheel arm via two lateral welds and to provide them with a shaped guide on the upper side and underside.
  • the V-shaped groove can hereby be bent in effective manner in an angle bending machine, which groove can thereby also be realized sufficiently accurately.
  • a V-shaped groove is provided both on the upper side and the underside of the wheel arm.
  • the angle on the upper side is for instance about 20°, and on the underside about 10°. It has been found that a good stability for the wheel arm is obtained hereby. It will be apparent that other angles are also possible according to the invention.
  • the shaped guide preferably comprises a separate guide plate which can be mounted separately on for instance the inner side of the outer tube of the wheel arm.
  • This guide plate is preferably provided from a plastic material, such that the plastic wear part is realized. As already stated above, this enables an effective use including maintenance and repairs.
  • the truck-mounted forklift truck further comprises one or more load carriers configured to carry cargo during displacement of the truck-mounted forklift in a lateral direction, and provided with a tilting mechanism for moving the load carrier downward and an unfolding mechanism for simultaneously unfolding a support.
  • Providing a tilting mechanism and an unfolding mechanism also enables a support to be unfolded during lowering of the load carrier from a folded-up position. This has the advantage that the overhang length remains limited. This makes transport with the truck-mounted forklift according to the invention more effective.
  • the invention also relates to a truck comprising a cargo space and a truck-mounted forklift truck as described above, wherein the truck is provided with coupling elements configured to be able to couple the truck-mounted forklift to the truck in co-action with the mounting elements of the truck-mounted forklift.
  • the invention further also relates to a method for loading and/or unloading a cargo space of a truck, comprising the steps of:
  • cargo can be transported in effective manner with the truck-mounted forklift truck as described above. This is because the robustness and stability are increased, such that dangerous situations are also avoided.
  • Truck-mounted forklift truck 2 ( figure 1 ) is provided with frame 4, wherein front wheel 6 and second front wheel 8 are arranged on the front side.
  • Steered wheel 10 is provided on the rear side.
  • front wheels 6, 8 are provided fixedly and in a second embodiment also provided steerably.
  • truck-mounted forklift truck 2 is provided with mast construction 12 with forks 14 for picking up and setting down cargo.
  • truck-mounted forklift 2 is further provided with cab 14 with seat 16 and steering system 18.
  • wheels 6, 8 are provided on the front side of truck-mounted forklift 2, arranged on wheels arms 20.
  • Two load carriers 22 are further arranged in the shown embodiments.
  • wheel arm 20 is provided with a first sub-part 24 and second sub-part 26 ( figures 2, 3 ).
  • first sub-part 24 is embodied as an outer tubular profile which is mounted fixedly on frame 4 of truck-mounted forklift 2.
  • inner sub-part 26 is embodied as a tubular profile which is slidable in first sub-part 24.
  • wheel guide 28 is formed by the V-shaped groove 30, arranged in inner, i.e. in use front, sub-part 26 in longitudinal direction thereof, and guide 32 which is secured to fixed sub-part 24 of wheel arm 20.
  • guide 32 is arranged on the upper side of wheel arm 20, between sub-parts 24, 26.
  • a second wheel guide 34 with an inverse V-shaped groove 36 and second guide 38 is also provided on the underside of wheel arm 20.
  • drive 40 which makes it possible to extend or retract sub-parts 24, 26 relative to each other.
  • front sub-part 26 is provided from separate parts, particularly upper part 42 and lower part 44 ( figure 3 ).
  • both parts are manufactured using an angle bending machine and then mutually connected using weld 46.
  • Weld 46 extends in the longitudinal direction on side 48 of wheel arm 20.
  • upper shaped guide 28 is therefore arranged on upper side 50 of wheel arm 20 and second guide 32 on underside 52 of wheel arm 20.
  • space 54 is available between sub-parts 24, 26. This enables and/or simplifies production tolerances and welds 46.
  • guide 32, 38 is provided with a plastic material. If desired, a wear indicator can be provided here which indicates whether guide 32, 38 has to be replaced.
  • wheel guides 32, 38 are provided with two legs 56, 58 ( figure 3 ). Legs 58 are provided at angle ⁇ to the horizontal. In the shown embodiment angle ⁇ lies in the range of 2-25°. It will be apparent that other angles and shapes are likewise possible according to the invention. In the shown embodiment legs 56, 58 are provided to fit substantially against respectively the upper side and underside of sub-part 26. Wheel guides 32, 38 are as it were provided truncated by the truncation at the position where legs 56, 58 converge in order to reduce friction, among other things.
  • Load carriers 22 ( figure 4 , 5 ) carry the cargo particularly during the lateral displacement of goods.
  • a lateral displacement wheels 6, 8, 10 of truck-mounted forklift 2 are in the shown embodiment placed completely laterally, whereby the truck-mounted forklift is displaceable in lateral direction B instead of in forward direction A.
  • load carriers 22 then contribute to a greater stability in that, in the case of two load carriers 22, they are arranged at a greater mutual distance than forks 14 of truck-mounted forklift 2.
  • a load carrier 22 is secured to frame 4 of truck-mounted forklift 2 using support 60. Support 60 is thereby mounted fixedly on truck-mounted forklift 2.
  • Carrier part 62 is rotatable around shaft 64.
  • connecting rod 66 as unfolding mechanism, support 68 is folded down automatically when load carrier 22 is moved downward around rotation shaft 64 in rotation direction C.
  • support 68 is provided with foot 70.
  • control of load carriers 22 takes place using cylinder 74.
  • Automatic folding down and folding up of load carriers 22 is hereby simplified for a user. If desired, it is possible to perform such a movement manually.
  • truck-mounted forklift 2 is usually connected to the rear side of a truck and/or mounted on or onto the loading floor thereof in a manner known in practice. This is usually possible without loss of cargo space or loading space of the relevant truck or trailer.
  • the forks of mast construction 12 are herein for instance inserted into box beams of trucks.
  • support is found here on an additional frame and/or truck-mounted forklift 2 is fastened to the truck using chains.
  • truck-mounted forklift 2 When the desired location is reached, truck-mounted forklift 2 is uncoupled from the truck in known manner and then used to load and/or unload goods from the cargo space of the truck. During use a user steers truck-mounted forklift truck 2.
  • Inner (front) sub-part 26 of wheel arm 20 here performs a translating movement relative to the outer sub-part 24 of wheel arm 20.
  • the shaped guide guides the front sub-part during the extending movement.
  • a reverse movement is performed. If desired, it is possible not to extend wheel arm 20, or not to extend it wholly, during use. This has the advantage that it is possible to get close to cargo.
  • truck-mounted forklift 2 it is for instance possible to provide a plurality of steerable wheels 10, for instance also on the front side, in combination with shown wheels 6, 8. All wheels are hereby preferably steerable.
  • front wheel 8 ( figure 1 ) is for instance turned using a cylinder or, alternatively, with a separate turning cylinder 30.
  • Wheel 6, 8 is here operatively connected to a frame part which is rotatable round a substantially vertical axis, or a rotation axis having at least a relatively large vertical component. This also applies to front wheel 6.
