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.
- EP 2 653 339 A2 relates to a piggyback forklift truck and a method of operating same.
- EP 2 653 339 A2 discloses a truck-mounted forklift truck comprising a frame provided with mounting elements configured to mount the truck-mounted forklift truck on a truck; a set of forks; a number of wheels and a drive to drive at least some of the wheels for the purpose of displacing the truck-mounted forklift truck over a ground surface; a steering mechanism configured to drive at least some of the wheels of the truck-mounted forklift-truck; and a wheel suspension.
- US 4 520 903 A relates to a forklift vehicle.
- 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.
- truck-mounted forklifts are used in different situations. In some of these situations there will be limited available space for manoeuvring with the truck-mounted forklift. This may result in damage to the truck-mounted forklift during use and/or to objects in the immediate vicinity of the loading and unloading, including for instance stored goods.
- 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.
- the truck-mounted forklift can be connected with 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 truck is provided with a steering mechanism configured to steer at least one of the wheels of the truck-mounted forklift.
- a steering mechanism configured to steer at least one of the wheels of the truck-mounted forklift.
- Providing at least one steerable wheel makes it possible to manoeuvre the truck-mounted forklift and to set down and/or pick up cargo at the desired position.
- a plurality of wheels can also be steered with a steering mechanism.
- the steerable wheel, or the steerable wheels is/are rotatable through a steering angle.
- the steering angle is understood to mean the maximum angle of rotation of the wheel about a rotation axis extending substantially perpendicularly of the ground surface. This means that the steering angle can also be expressed as an angle in a plane equal or parallel to the ground surface over which the truck-mounted forklift is movable.
- the steering mechanism is provided with a steering cylinder which is configured to turn the steered wheel in the desired direction, and thereby to steer the truck-mounted forklift truck in the desired direction.
- the steering cylinder comprises a turning cylinder.
- a steering cylinder embodied as turning cylinder as alternative to a conventional steering mechanism, wherein use is made of arms and cylinders in such a conventional mechanism, provides an effective steering of the steerable wheel.
- an action of the cylinder can be translated directly into a turn of the steerable wheel in the desired direction.
- the steerable wheel is controlled directly with a rotation of the turning cylinder.
- the construction of the steering mechanism in the truck-mounted forklift truck according to the invention can be further simplified. From a viewpoint of cost, this has a favourable effect on the construction of the truck-mounted forklift and has the additional advantage that the steering mechanism takes up less space.
- the truck-mounted forklift can thereby take a more compact form, whereby manoeuvring with the truck-mounted forklift is for instance improved still further.
- the wheel suspension of the truck-mounted forklift truck according to the invention is here preferably adapted to the steering cylinder of the steering mechanism, such that the steered wheel is rotatable through the steering angle over said substantially vertical axis.
- the steering mechanism of the truck-mounted forklift truck according to the invention preferably enables a rotation through the steering angle of at least 160°, preferably at least 170°.
- the steering angle is preferably about 180°. This means that the steerable wheel can be turned through 180°. This provides a maximum flexibility for the manoeuvring of the truck-mounted forklift truck according to the invention.
- the turning cylinder is preferably provided as a hydraulic turning cylinder.
- the turning cylinder can here preferably make use of the already present hydraulic system of the truck-mounted forklift. This enables a cost-effective embodiment of the steering mechanism according to the invention. Alternatively, use can for instance be made of an electric turning cylinder.
- Providing the turning cylinder with a rotation axis and having this axis correspond, i.e. substantially coincide, with the substantially vertical axis over which the steered wheel is rotatable in use enables a direct steering of the wheel without transmission and/or arms being required. This enables a compact construction. Also provided hereby is a very small turning circle, which further improves the manoeuvring with the truck-mounted forklift truck in this embodiment according to the invention in a small space. This reduces the risk of damage to the truck-mounted forklift and/or goods or other objects or persons in the vicinity.
- the wheel suspension is provided integrated with the turning cylinder.
- a further advantage of integrating the wheel suspension with the turning cylinder is the relatively simple mounting and dismounting of the wheel suspension relative to the frame of the truck-mounted forklift truck which is made possible. This considerably simplifies maintenance and repairs. It is thus for instance possible to exchange the wheel suspension for a different wheel suspension. Repairs to the relevant component can then be made in a workshop, while the truck-mounted forklift remains operative. This increases the utility of the truck-mounted forklift truck according to the invention.
- the wheel suspension is preferably releasably attached only to the turning cylinder in mechanical manner. Such a simplification enables an even more effective mounting and dismounting of the wheel suspension of the truck-mounted forklift truck.
- At least three wheels of the truck-mounted forklift truck are provided with a steering mechanism for turning the steered wheel through a steering angle in a desired direction about a substantially vertical axis.
- Use can be made here of separate steering cylinders for the individual wheels, wherein at least some of the steering cylinders comprise a turning cylinder, or of partially different steering mechanisms. All wheels can preferably be steered through a steering angle of at least 160°, preferably at least 170° and more preferably about 180°. It is also possible to provide different steering angles for the different wheels, for instance a steering angle of about 180° for the rear wheel and a smaller steering angle for the front wheel/the front wheels.
- the invention also relates to a truck comprising a cargo space and a truck-mounted forklift 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:
- the manoeuvrability of the forklift truck is in particular greatly improved.
- the steering thus preferably comprises of being able to rotate the steered wheel through a steering angle of up to at least 160°, preferably at least 170°, and the steering angle most preferably amounts to about 180°. This greatly increases the steerability and manoeuvrability of the truck-mounted forklift truck.
- 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.

- wheel suspension 22 is provided with a substantially vertical carrier 38 and a substantially horizontal carrier 40, wherein carriers 38, 40 are mutually connected with corner profile 42. It will be apparent that other embodiments are also possible for suspension 22.
- rotation axis 32 of turning cylinder 30 corresponds to the rotation axis of steered wheel 10 which enables turning of steered wheel 10 in direction A through the steering angle.
- wheel axle 24 is connected to wheel suspension 22.
- Vertical carrier 38 is provided for this purpose with recess 44 so as to enable a compact construction method.
- sensor or stop 46 is further provided for further controlling rotation of steered wheel 10.
- Physical stop member 46 is preferably provided in cylinder 30 itself.
- Steered wheel 10 can rotate to the left or to the right around rotation axis 32. Rotating steered wheel 10 to the left or to the right in direction A enables manoeuvring of truck-mounted forklift 2.
- the steering angle in rotation direction A between a first extreme position ( figure 2 ) and a second extreme position ( figure 3 ) amounts to about 180°. It will be apparent that a different steering angle can also be realized with a truck-mounted forklift truck according to the invention.
- 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.
- a user steers truck-mounted forklift truck 2 using steering wheel 18, whereby turning cylinder 30 is rotated around rotation axis 32.
- Steerable wheel 10 moves in direction A ( figure 1 ) as a result of the rotation movement of cylinder 30.
- steerable wheel 10 can here be moved between the two extreme positions ( figures 2 and 3 ) through a steering angle of about 180°.
- An optimal manoeuvrability of truck-mounted forklift 2 is hereby provided. This manoeuvrability is further increased by having rotation axis 32 of turning cylinder 30 and the axis of rotation of steerable wheel 10, around which wheel 10 can turn in direction A, substantially coincide.
