Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、荷役車両の荷受台昇降装置、特に車体に昇降可能に支持される荷受台と、この荷受台及び車体間に配設されて該荷受台を上昇駆動し得る油圧シリンダと、この油圧シリンダに作動油を供給する油圧供給源とを備えた荷受台昇降装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
上記荷役車両の荷受台昇降装置は、例えば実公昭50−43856号公報、同51−44487号公報等に記載されるように従来公知である。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
上記従来の荷受台昇降装置においては、上昇中の荷受台が上限位置に到達した時に急激に減速して停止するため、その停止の際の衝撃で振動や騒音を生じ易く、また荷受台上の積載荷物がずれ動く虞れがある等の問題があった。
【0004】
また斯かる問題を解決するために、例えば荷受台の上昇過程で油圧供給源から油圧シリンダへ向かう作動油の流れを、荷受台が上限位置近くに達した以降に、荷受台に連動するブレーキ弁装置によって徐々に絞ることで荷受台を緩衝的に停止させることが考えられるが、この場合にブレーキ弁装置の作動ストローク(即ち荷受台の上昇変位)に対する作動油の絞り流量の変化割合を一定に設定すると、次のような不都合がある。例えばその一定の変化割合を比較的大きく(即ち上記作動油の流れを急速に絞るように)設定した場合には、ブレーキ弁装置が十分な緩衝効果を発揮することができないため、荷受台が上限位置に達した時の衝撃が比較的大きくなり、一方、その変化割合を比較的小さく(即ち上記作動油の流れを緩徐に絞るように)設定した場合には、十分な緩衝効果を得るのに作動ストロークの長いブレーキ弁装置を用いる必要があってブレーキ弁装置が大型化し、その上、荷受台の上昇過程でその上昇速度を早めに減速する必要があって、それだけ上昇所要時間が長くなってしまう。
【0005】
本発明は、斯かる事情に鑑みてなされたものであって、上記問題を解決することができる、荷役車両の荷受台昇降装置を提供することを目的とする。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記目的を達成するために請求項1の発明は、車体に昇降可能に支持される荷受台と、この荷受台及び車体間に配設されて該荷受台を上昇駆動し得る油圧シリンダと、この油圧シリンダに作動油を供給する油圧供給源とを備え、前記油圧供給源と油圧シリンダとの間には、荷受台の上昇過程で該油圧供給源から油圧シリンダへ向かう作動油の流れを荷受台が上限位置の近傍に達した以降徐々に絞ることで荷受台の上昇動作を緩衝的に停止させるブレーキ弁装置が介装される、荷役車両の荷受台昇降装置において、前記ブレーキ弁装置が、油圧供給源および油圧シリンダにそれぞれ連なる入,出力ポート、並びにその両ポートが開口するシリンダ孔を有する弁函と、その両ポート間の連通路をシリンダ孔との間に形成するように該シリンダ孔に嵌合されて所定の前進位置と後退位置との間を摺動し得る摺動弁と、この摺動弁を前進位置側に常時付勢する弁バネとを備え、前記摺動弁の外周部には、該弁の後方に向かうにつれて漸次小径となるように形成されて該弁の前進位置から後退位置への後退過程で前記連通路を徐々に絞るテーパ部が、前記後退過程の途中で該テーパ部後端が一方のポートの開口部後端を通過するように設けられ、摺動弁と荷受台との間には、荷受台が上限位置の近傍から上限位置にかけて上昇するのに連動して摺動弁を前進位置から後退位置まで後退させる連動機構が設けられること特徴とする
【0007】
また請求項の発明は、車体に昇降可能に支持される荷受台と、この荷受台及び車体間に配設されて該荷受台を上昇駆動し得る油圧シリンダと、この油圧シリンダに作動油を供給する油圧供給源とを備え、前記油圧供給源と油圧シリンダとの間には、荷受台の上昇過程で該油圧供給源から油圧シリンダへ向かう作動油の流れを荷受台が上限位置の近傍に達した以降徐々に絞ることで荷受台の上昇動作を緩衝的に停止させるブレーキ弁装置が介装される、荷役車両の荷受台昇降装置において、前記ブレーキ弁装置が、油圧供給源および油圧シリンダにそれぞれ連なる入,出力ポート、並びにその両ポートが開口するシリンダ孔を有する弁函と、その両ポート間の連通路をシリンダ孔との間に形成するように該シリンダ孔に嵌合されて所定の前進位置と後退位置との間を摺動し得る摺動弁と、この摺動弁を前進位置側に常時付勢する弁バネとを備え、前記摺動弁の外周部には、該弁が前進位置から所定の中間後退位置に後退する過程で一方のポートの開口部を通過して前記連通路を急速に絞る環状段部と、この環状段部の前側に連なって形成され該弁が前記中間後退位置より更に後退する過程で前記連通路を緩徐に絞るテーパ部とが設けられ、摺動弁と荷受台との間には、荷受台が上限位置の近傍から上限位置にかけて上昇するのに連動して摺動弁を前進位置から後退位置まで後退させる連動機構が設けられること特徴とし、更に請求項の発明は、請求項の発明の上記特徴に加えて、前記摺動弁の外周部には、前記連通路をシリンダ孔との間に形成する環状凹部が前記環状段部の後側に連続して形成されることを特徴としている。
【0008】
尚、本発明においては、荷受台の上昇に連動して摺動弁が移動する側を摺動弁の後側とし、またその反対側を同弁の前側とする。
【0009】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明の実施の形態を、添付図面に例示した本発明の実施例に基づいて以下に具体的に説明する。
【0010】
添付図面において、図1は、本発明の一実施例を示す車両後部の縦断側面図、図2は前記実施例の油圧制御回路図、図3は図1の3矢視部拡大図、図4は図3の4矢視より見た側面図、図5は、摺動弁が前進位置にある状態のブレーキ弁装置の全体縦断面図、図6は図5の6矢視部拡大図、図7は、ブレーキ弁装置の作動ストロークと絞り流量との関係を示すグラフ、図8は、ブレーキ弁装置の変形例を示す図6対応図、図9は図8の9−9線断面図である。
【0011】
先ず、図1において、荷役車両Tにおける車体1後部の左右両端部には左右一対のブラケット2がそれぞれ固設されており、それらブラケット2と荷受台3とは左右一対の平行リンク機構4を介して連動連結され、それら平行リンク機構4には、車体1の適所(例えば前記ブラケット2又は他のブラケット)に基部を回動可能に支持した左右一対の油圧シリンダ5のピストンロッド6の先部が回動可能に連結支持される。これにより、各油圧シリンダ5の伸縮作動に応じて各平行リンク機構4が作動して荷受台3を昇降回動させることができる。
【0012】
各平行リンク機構4は、相互に平行な上下一対の揺動リンク7,8と、その各揺動リンク7,8の基端をブラケット2に回動自在に支持するための水平な支軸9,10と、鉛直方向に延びる直立支柱11と、両揺動リンク7,8の先端を直立支柱11に回動可能に連結するための水平なピン12,13とから構成される。各揺動リンク7,8の基端は支軸9,10に固着されており、その各支軸9,10がブラケット2により回動自在に貫通支持される。しかも一方の支軸9には、その半径方向外方に向けてアーム14が一体に突設されており、このアーム14の先端には、前記油圧シリンダ5のピストンロッド6の先端が回動自在に連結される。
【0013】
前記直立支柱11の下端には、荷受台3の基端が前記ピン12,13と平行な軸15を介して回動自在に支持される。しかも直立支柱11の上部と、荷受台3の先端とは、屈折可能な支持リンク16を介して連結されており、この支持リンク16が伸長状態にあるときに荷受台3が水平姿勢となる。尚、直立支柱11と荷受台3間には、図示はしないが荷受台を水平姿勢と鉛直姿勢との間で強制回動させる駆動手段や、荷受台を鉛直姿勢に保持する保持手段が必要に応じて設置される。
【0014】
かくして、支持リンク16を伸長させて荷受台3を水平姿勢に保持した状態で油圧シリンダ5を収縮させると、平行リンク機構4の作用により、荷受台3は図1の鎖線で示すように降下して接地し、またそれとは逆に油圧シリンダ5を伸長させると平行リンク機構4の作用により、荷受台3は図1の実線で示すように車体1の荷台17と同一平面上で該荷台17の後端縁に接触する上限位置3Uまで上昇する。
【0015】
図2において、油タンク18から作動油を汲み上げる油圧供給源としての油圧ポンプ19は吐出油路21に接続されており、この吐出油路21の下流側には一対の接続油路211 ,212 が並列に接続され、その両接続油路211 ,212 には、単動形シリンダより各々構成された左右一対の油圧シリンダ5の油圧室5aがそれぞれ接続される。吐出油路21の途中には、油圧ポンプ19から油圧シリンダ5側への作動油の流れを許容する逆止弁20と、本発明のブレーキ弁装置Vとがこの順序で上流側より直列に介装される。
【0016】
またその逆止弁20とブレーキ弁装置Vとの間の吐出油路21からは、各油圧室5aの作動油を油タンク18に還流させるための解放油路23が分岐されており、この解放油路23の途中には、該路23を開閉可能な解放弁26が介装される。この解放弁26は、解放油路23を通常は逆止弁22により遮断する一方、操作部材25への入力操作に応じて随時に開通可能であり、しかもその開通位置では作動油の還流量を任意に調整可能である。
【0017】
更に前記逆止弁20と油圧ポンプ19との間の吐出油路21からは、該ポンプ19の吐出油を油タンク18に還流させるためのリリーフ油路28が分岐されており、このリリーフ油路28の途中には、油圧ポンプ19の吐出圧に応動する従来周知のリリーフ弁24が接続され、そのリリーフ作用により油圧ポンプ19の吐出圧を所定圧以下に制限できるようになっている。
【0018】
図3,4を併せて参照して、ブレーキ弁装置Vは、ブラケット2に固着した支持板27に固定されており、平行リンク機構4の作動状態に応じて作動するように構成される。
【0019】
次に図5,6に基づいてブレーキ弁装置Vの具体的構成を説明する。ブレーキ弁装置Vは、油圧ポンプ19及び左右の油圧シリンダ5の油圧室5aにそれぞれ連なる入,出力ポート30,31、並びにその入,出力ポート30,31が軸方向に間隔をおいて開口するシリンダ孔32を有する弁函33と、そのシリンダ孔32に嵌合されて所定の前進位置A(図5実線位置)と後退位置C(図5鎖線位置)との間を摺動し得る摺動弁としてのスプール弁34と、該弁34を前進位置A側に常時付勢する弁バネ35とを備えている。その弁バネ35は、スプール弁34の後端面に凹設した盲孔34bの内端と、その盲孔34bの開口端を空間を存して覆うように弁函33の外面にネジ36により固着されたカバー板42との間に弾性圧縮状態で保持されており、またスプール弁34の前進位置は、該弁34と弁函33間に設けられる適宜のストッパ手段St(図示例では該弁34の後端部外周に係止されて弁函33の後端に係合し得るサークリップ等の係止具)により規制される。
【0020】
前記スプール弁34とシリンダ孔32との間には、入,出力ポート30,31相互を常に連通させる連通路40が形成される。尚、図示例では、ブレーキ弁装置Vから左右一対の油圧シリンダ5に作動油を分配供給すべく出力ポート31が弁函33の上部と側部にそれぞれ形成されており、その両出力ポート31に前記両接続油路211 ,212 がそれぞれ接続される。
【0021】
前記スプール弁34は、シリンダ孔32にそれぞれシールリングSを介して摺動可能に嵌合される前後一対のランド部34Lf,34Lrを外周に有しており、その両ランド部34Lf,34Lr間には、前記連通路40をシリンダ孔32との間に形成する環状凹部34gが設けられる。また前側のランド部34Lfの後部外周には、後方に向かうにつれて漸次小径となる円錐テーパ状のテーパ部34tが形成されており、そのテーパ部34tの後端部に環状段部34sが形成され、該段部34sの後側に前記環状凹部34gが連続する。
【0022】
特にテーパ部34tは、図6にも示す如くスプール弁34の後退過程の途中、即ち所定の中間後退位置Bで該テーパ部34t後端が前側のポート(図示例では出力ポート31)の開口部31a後端を通過するように(換言すれば、該テーパ部34tの後端がスプール弁34の前進位置Aでは該開口部31a後端よりも前側に位置し、また同弁34の後退位置Cでは該開口部31a後端よりも後側に位置するように)設けられる。このため、スプール弁34の後退過程でテーパ部34t後端が前側のポート31の開口部31a後端を通過するまでの間(即ち該弁34が前進位置Aから中間後退位置Bに至る間)は、テーパ部34tが前記連通路40の、該開口部31aに直接臨む部分を弁34の摺動方向に漸次絞り、またその通過後(即ち該弁34が中間後退位置Bから後退位置Cに至る間)は、テーパ部34tが前記連通路40の、該開口部31aよりも後方部分を弁34の径方向に漸次絞ることができるから、該テーパ部34tによって前記連通路40を2通りの絞り態様で徐々に絞ることが可能である。
【0023】
而して図6,7からも明らかなようにスプール弁34が前進位置Aから所定の中間後退位置Bに後退する過程では、前記環状段部34sが前側のポート31の開口部31aを通過することにより前記連通路40(特に該開口部31aに直接臨む部分)を急速に絞ることができ、次いでスプール弁34が前記中間後退位置Bより更に後退する過程では、前記テーパ部34tが前記連通路40を緩徐に絞ることができる。更に前記連通路40をシリンダ孔32と協働して形成する環状凹部34gを環状段部34sの後側に連続して形成したことにより、油圧ポンプ19からの作動油圧がスプール弁34自体に及ぼす前方及び後方へのスラストをバランス(相殺)させることができるから、それだけスプール弁34の摺動がスムーズにすることができる。
【0024】
また弁函33内の、スプール弁34一側方には、前記連通路40をバイパスして入,出力ポート30,31間を短絡させるバイパス路41が形成される。このバイパス路36には、出力ポート31から入力ポート30側への作動油(即ち油圧シリンダ5から油タンク18への戻り油)の流れのみを許容するボール弁式の逆止弁37が介装され、この逆止弁37の開弁設定圧は、該弁37の戻しばね38を支持するバネ受け手段に兼用される調節ビス39を適宜回動操作して弁バネ38のセット荷重を調整することにより任意に調節可能である。而してこの逆止弁37は、解放弁26を任意に開弁操作することにより実行される荷受台3の下降過程で、荷受台3上に重い荷物があるような場合に、油圧シリンダ5から油タンク18側への戻り油の流れがスプール弁34(テーパ部34t)により絞られて遅くなるのを回避するために、入,出力ポート30,31間の差圧上昇に応じて開弁動作するものであり、これにより、荷受台3の下降動作をスムーズに行わせることができる。
【0025】
またスプール弁34と荷受台3との間には、荷受台3が上限位置Uの近傍3U′から上限位置3Uにかけて上昇するのに連動してスプール弁34を前進位置Aから後退位置Cまで後退させる連動機構Iが設けられる。この連動機構Iは、平行リンク機構4における支軸9の外端部に固設されてその外側方に延びる支持アーム52と、このアーム52の先端に螺合されて頭部がスプール弁34の、弁函33外に延出する外端部34aに当接し得る押圧部材としての押圧ボルト54とから構成され、このボルト54には、該ボルト54の支持アーム52に対する螺合位置を固定し得るロックナット53が螺合される。而して押圧ボルト54は、荷受台3が図1で実線に示す上限位置3Uないしはその近傍3U′にあるときだけ、スプール弁34の外端34aに当接して該弁34を後退動作させる。
【0026】
次に前記実施例の作用を説明する。油圧シリンダ5が収縮して荷受台3が図1鎖線で示すように下限位置にあるときには、前記押圧ボルト54はスプール弁34に当接していないので、スプール弁34は弁バネ35により前進位置Aに弾発保持され(図5実線参照)、この状態で出力ポート31の開口部31a(従って両ポート30,31間の連通路40)の通路断面積は最大である。
【0027】
ここで荷受台3を上昇させるべく油圧ポンプ19を作動させると、その吐出油は吐出油路21を経て油圧シリンダ5側に多量に供給され、これにより油圧シリンダ5は速やかに伸長し、その伸長動作に平行リンク機構4を介して連動する荷受台3が速やかに上昇動作する。
【0028】
荷受台3が上限位置3Uの近傍3U′に達すると、連動機構Iの押圧ボルト54がスプール弁34の外端に当接するようになり、これにより該弁34が後退動作を開始する。荷受台3の更なる上昇に連動してスプール弁34が後退動作するが、その後退動作に伴い、前記連通路40(従って油圧ポンプ19から油圧シリンダ5側への作動油の流れ)が徐々に絞られるため、上昇中の荷受台3を上限位置3Uに緩衝的に停止させることができる。従ってその停止の際の衝撃発生が抑えられるから、その衝撃に起因した振動や騒音の発生を効果的に防止できると共に、荷受台3上の積載荷物のずれ動きが効果的に抑えられる。
【0029】
その場合、前記連通路40(従って油圧シリンダ5に向かう上記作動油の流れ)は、スプール弁3が前進位置Aから所定の中間後退位置Bに後退する過程(図7のA→Bの区間)では該弁34の主として環状段部34sにより急速に絞られ、次いで同弁34が中間後退位置Bより更に後退する過程(図7のB→Cの区間)では該弁34のテーパ部34tにより緩徐に絞られるから、ブレーキ弁装置Vに必要な緩衝効果を発揮させて荷受台3の上限位置3U到着の際の衝撃緩和を図りながら、同弁34の作動ストロークを極力短くすることができ、それだけブレーキ弁装置Vの小型化が図られる。しかも荷受台3の上昇過程で荷受台3が上限位置3Uの近傍3U′に達するまでは上昇速度を特別に減速する必要がないことから、上昇所要時間を極力短縮して作業能率向上が図られる。
【0030】
また図8,9には、摺動弁としてのスプール弁34の変形例が示されている。即ち、先の実施例では、スプール弁34にテーパ部34tを設けるに当たり、該弁34の前側のランド部34Lfの後半部外周を円錐テーパ面より形成するようにしたが、この変形例では、前記ランド部34Lfの後半部外周を円柱状とし、且つその外周面に後方に向かうにつれて通路断面積(溝幅・溝底)が漸増するテーパ溝34tを前側のポート31の開口部31aに対応して少なくとも1条(図示例では複数条)形成し、これをテーパ部としている。而してこの変形例によっても、前記実施例と同様の作用効果が期待できる。
【0031】
以上、本発明の実施例について説明したが、本発明はその実施例に限定されることなく、本発明の範囲内で種々の実施例が可能である。例えば前記実施例では、車体1に平行リンク機構4を介して荷受台3を昇降回動可能に支持した形式の荷役車両に適用した一例を示したが、本発明では、車体に垂直昇降案内機構を介して荷受台を垂直昇降可能に支持した形式の荷役車両に適用してもよい。
【0032】
また前記実施例では、出力ポート31を入力ポート30よりも前側に配設して出力ポート31の開口部31aをスプール弁34の環状段部34s及びテーパ部34tが順次通過するようにしたものを示したが、本発明では、入力ポート30を出力ポート31よりも前側に配設して入力ポート30の開口部をスプール弁34の環状段部34s及びテーパ部34tが順次通過するようにしてもよい。
【0033】
更に前記実施例では、スプール弁34の外周に設けられるテーパ部34tの後端に環状段部34sを形成したものを示したが、本発明(請求項1・2)では、テーパ部34tの後端に段差部を介さずに環状凹部34gの底面を連続させるようにして、環状段部を省略してもよい。
【0034】
【発明の効果】
以上のように発明によれば、荷受台を上昇駆動し得る油圧シリンダと、この油圧シリンダに作動油を供給する油圧供給源との間に、荷受台の上昇過程で該油圧供給源から油圧シリンダへ向かう作動油の流れを荷受台が上限位置近傍に達した以降徐々に絞ることで荷受台の上昇動作を緩衝的に停止させるブレーキ弁装置を設けたので、このブレーキ弁装置の絞り作用により、上昇中の荷受台を上限位置に緩衝的に停止させることができ、従ってその停止の際の衝撃が緩和され、その衝撃に因る振動や騒音の発生を効果的に防止できると共に、荷受台上の積載荷物のずれ動きを抑えることができる。
【0035】
また特に請求項の発明によれば、摺動弁の後退過程でテーパ部後端が一方のポートの開口部後端を通過するまでの間(即ちテーパ部後端が開口部後端より前側にある間)は、テーパ部が連通路の、該開口部に直接臨む部分を弁の摺動方向に漸次絞り、またその通過後(即ちテーパ部後端が開口部後端よりも後方に移動した後)は、テーパ部が連通路の、該開口部よりも後方部分を弁の径方向に漸次絞ることができ、その結果、該テーパ部によって連通路(従って荷受台の上昇過程で油圧供給源より油圧シリンダに向かう作動油の流れ)を2通りの絞り態様で効果的に絞ることができるから、ブレーキ弁装置に十分な緩衝効果を発揮させて荷受台の上限位置到着の際の衝撃発生を効果的に抑えることができ、しかもその緩衝特性の多様化を図ることができる。
【0036】
また特に請求項の発明によれば、入,出力ポート間の連通路(従って荷受台の上昇過程で油圧供給源より油圧シリンダに向かう作動油の流れ)を、摺動弁が前進位置から所定の中間後退位置に後退する過程では該弁の環状段部により急速に絞ることができ、次いで摺動弁が中間後退位置より更に後退する過程では該弁のテーパ部により緩徐に絞ることができる。その結果、ブレーキ弁装置に十分な緩衝効果を発揮させて荷受台の上限位置到着の際の衝撃緩和を図りながら、同弁の作動ストロークを極力短くすることができ、それだけブレーキ弁装置の小型化が図られ、しかも荷受台の上昇過程で荷受台が上限位置近傍に達するまでは上昇速度を特別に減速する必要がないことから、上昇所要時間を極力短縮して作業能率の向上が図られる。
【0037】
また特に請求項の発明によれば、摺動弁の外周部に、前記連通路をシリンダ孔との間に形成する環状凹部が環状段部の後側に連続して形成されるので、作動油圧が摺動弁自体に及ぼす軸方向スラストを前後にバランスさせることができ、それだけ摺動弁をスムーズに摺動させることができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a load receiving base lifting device for a cargo handling vehicle, in particular, a load receiving base supported so as to be movable up and down on a vehicle body, a hydraulic cylinder disposed between the load receiving base and the vehicle body and capable of driving the load receiving base upward, and a hydraulic pressure thereof. The present invention relates to a load receiving table lifting device including a hydraulic pressure supply source for supplying hydraulic oil to a cylinder.
[0002]
[Prior art]
The cargo receiving platform lifting device for the cargo handling vehicle is conventionally known as described in, for example, Japanese Utility Model Publication Nos. 50-43856 and 51-44487.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the conventional load receiving platform lifting device, when the rising load receiving platform reaches the upper limit position, it suddenly decelerates and stops, so that it is easy to generate vibration and noise due to the impact at the time of stopping, and on the load receiving platform. There were problems such as the possibility that the loaded luggage might move.
[0004]
In order to solve such a problem, for example, the flow of hydraulic oil from the hydraulic supply source to the hydraulic cylinder in the ascending process of the load receiving table is performed after the load receiving table reaches the upper limit position. It is conceivable to stop the load receiving base in a buffered manner by gradually reducing the pressure by the device. In this case, the rate of change in the throttle flow rate of the hydraulic oil with respect to the operating stroke of the brake valve device (that is, upward displacement of the load receiving base) is kept constant Setting it has the following inconveniences. For example, when the constant change rate is set to be relatively large (that is, the flow of the hydraulic oil is rapidly reduced), the brake valve device cannot exhibit a sufficient buffering effect, so the load receiving platform is limited to the upper limit. When the position is reached, the impact will be relatively large, while if the rate of change is set to be relatively small (that is, the flow of hydraulic fluid will be throttled slowly), a sufficient buffering effect will be obtained. It is necessary to use a brake valve device with a long operating stroke, which increases the size of the brake valve device. In addition, it is necessary to decelerate the ascending speed early in the ascending process of the cargo cradle, and the time required for ascent increases accordingly. End up.

[0011]
First, in FIG. 1, a pair of left and right brackets 2 are fixed to the left and right ends of the rear part of the vehicle body 1 in the cargo handling vehicle T, and the bracket 2 and the load receiving table 3 are connected via a pair of left and right parallel link mechanisms 4. The parallel link mechanism 4 includes a tip portion of a piston rod 6 of a pair of left and right hydraulic cylinders 5 that rotatably supports a base portion at an appropriate position of the vehicle body 1 (for example, the bracket 2 or another bracket). It is connected and supported so as to be rotatable. Thereby, each parallel link mechanism 4 operates according to the expansion / contraction operation of each hydraulic cylinder 5, and the load receiving base 3 can be rotated up and down.
[0012]
Each parallel link mechanism 4 includes a pair of upper and lower swing links 7 and 8 parallel to each other, and a horizontal support shaft 9 for rotatably supporting the base ends of the swing links 7 and 8 on the bracket 2. , 10, an upright column 11 extending in the vertical direction, and horizontal pins 12 and 13 for rotatably connecting the ends of the swing links 7 and 8 to the upright column 11. The base ends of the swing links 7 and 8 are fixed to the support shafts 9 and 10, and the support shafts 9 and 10 are rotatably supported by the bracket 2. Moreover, an arm 14 is integrally provided on one of the support shafts 9 in the radially outward direction, and the tip of the piston rod 6 of the hydraulic cylinder 5 is rotatable at the tip of the arm 14. Connected to
[0013]
At the lower end of the upright support 11, the base end of the load receiving platform 3 is rotatably supported via a shaft 15 parallel to the pins 12 and 13. Moreover, the upper part of the upright support 11 and the tip of the load receiving table 3 are connected via a support link 16 that can be bent, and the load receiving table 3 is in a horizontal posture when the support link 16 is in the extended state. In addition, although not shown in figure, the drive means for forcibly rotating the load receiving table between the horizontal posture and the vertical posture and the holding means for holding the load receiving table in the vertical posture are necessary between the upright support column 11 and the load receiving table 3. Installed accordingly.
[0014]
Thus, when the hydraulic cylinder 5 is contracted while the support link 16 is extended to hold the load receiving table 3 in a horizontal posture, the load receiving table 3 is lowered as shown by the chain line in FIG. When the hydraulic cylinder 5 is extended on the contrary, by the action of the parallel link mechanism 4, the load receiving platform 3 is placed on the same plane as the loading platform 17 of the vehicle body 1 as shown by the solid line in FIG. It rises to the upper limit position 3U that contacts the rear edge.
[0015]
In FIG. 2, a hydraulic pump 19 as a hydraulic supply source that pumps hydraulic oil from the oil tank 18 is connected to a discharge oil passage 21, and a pair of connection oil passages 21 1 , 21 is provided downstream of the discharge oil passage 21. 2 are connected in parallel, and hydraulic oil chambers 5a of a pair of left and right hydraulic cylinders 5 each composed of a single-acting cylinder are connected to both connecting oil passages 21 1 and 21 2 , respectively. In the middle of the discharge oil passage 21, a check valve 20 that allows the flow of hydraulic oil from the hydraulic pump 19 to the hydraulic cylinder 5 side and the brake valve device V of the present invention are connected in series from the upstream side in this order. Be dressed.
[0016]
A release oil passage 23 for returning the hydraulic oil in each hydraulic chamber 5a to the oil tank 18 is branched from the discharge oil passage 21 between the check valve 20 and the brake valve device V. A release valve 26 capable of opening and closing the passage 23 is interposed in the middle of the oil passage 23. The release valve 26 normally shuts off the release oil passage 23 by the check valve 22, and can be opened at any time according to an input operation to the operation member 25. It can be adjusted arbitrarily.
[0017]
Further, a relief oil passage 28 for returning the discharge oil of the pump 19 to the oil tank 18 is branched from the discharge oil passage 21 between the check valve 20 and the hydraulic pump 19. A known relief valve 24 that responds to the discharge pressure of the hydraulic pump 19 is connected in the middle of 28, and the discharge pressure of the hydraulic pump 19 can be limited to a predetermined pressure or less by the relief action.
[0018]
3 and 4 together, the brake valve device V is fixed to the support plate 27 fixed to the bracket 2 and is configured to operate according to the operating state of the parallel link mechanism 4.
[0019]
Next, a specific configuration of the brake valve device V will be described with reference to FIGS. The brake valve device V includes input and output ports 30 and 31 connected to the hydraulic pump 19 and the hydraulic chambers 5a of the left and right hydraulic cylinders 5, respectively, and a cylinder in which the input and output ports 30 and 31 are opened at intervals in the axial direction. A valve box 33 having a hole 32, and a sliding valve which is fitted in the cylinder hole 32 and can slide between a predetermined forward position A (solid line position in FIG. 5) and a reverse position C (FIG. 5 chain line position). And a valve spring 35 that constantly urges the valve 34 toward the forward position A. The valve spring 35 is fixed to the inner end of the blind hole 34b recessed in the rear end surface of the spool valve 34 and the outer surface of the valve box 33 with screws 36 so as to cover the open end of the blind hole 34b with a space. The spool plate 34 is held between the cover plate 42 and the cover plate 42 in an elastically compressed state, and the forward position of the spool valve 34 is determined by appropriate stopper means St (the valve 34 in the illustrated example) provided between the valve 34 and the valve casing 33. The rear end of the rear end portion of the valve box 33 and can be engaged with the rear end of the valve casing 33.
[0020]
A communication passage 40 is formed between the spool valve 34 and the cylinder hole 32 to always allow the input and output ports 30 and 31 to communicate with each other. In the illustrated example, output ports 31 are formed at the upper and side portions of the valve box 33 so as to distribute and supply the hydraulic oil from the brake valve device V to the pair of left and right hydraulic cylinders 5. Both the connecting oil passages 21 1 and 21 2 are connected to each other.
[0021]
The spool valve 34 has a pair of front and rear land portions 34Lf and 34Lr slidably fitted to the cylinder hole 32 via a seal ring S on the outer periphery, and between the land portions 34Lf and 34Lr. Is provided with an annular recess 34g that forms the communication passage 40 with the cylinder hole 32. Further, a conical taper-shaped taper portion 34t having a gradually decreasing diameter toward the rear is formed on the rear outer periphery of the front land portion 34Lf, and an annular step portion 34s is formed at the rear end portion of the taper portion 34t. The annular recess 34g continues on the rear side of the step 34s.
[0022]
In particular, the tapered portion 34t is in the middle of the retreating process of the spool valve 34 as shown in FIG. 6, that is, the opening portion of the port (the output port 31 in the illustrated example) whose rear end is the front end at the predetermined intermediate retracted position B. 31a so that it passes through the rear end (in other words, the rear end of the tapered portion 34t is located in front of the rear end of the opening 31a in the forward position A of the spool valve 34, and the reverse position C of the valve 34 Then, it is provided so that it may be located behind the rear end of the opening 31a. For this reason, until the rear end of the tapered portion 34t passes through the rear end of the opening portion 31a of the front port 31 during the backward movement of the spool valve 34 (that is, while the valve 34 reaches the intermediate backward position B from the forward movement position A). The taper portion 34t is gradually throttled in the sliding direction of the valve 34 at the portion of the communication passage 40 that directly faces the opening 31a, and after the passage (that is, the valve 34 is moved from the intermediate retracted position B to the retracted position C). Since the taper portion 34t can gradually narrow the rear portion of the communication passage 40 from the opening portion 31a in the radial direction of the valve 34, the taper portion 34t allows the communication passage 40 to be separated in two ways. It is possible to gradually squeeze in the aperture mode.
[0023]
6 and 7, in the process in which the spool valve 34 is retracted from the advance position A to the predetermined intermediate retract position B, the annular step 34s passes through the opening 31a of the front port 31. As a result, the communication passage 40 (particularly, the portion directly facing the opening 31a) can be rapidly throttled, and in the process in which the spool valve 34 is further retracted from the intermediate retracted position B, the tapered portion 34t is moved to the communication passage. 40 can be squeezed slowly. Further, the annular recess 34g that forms the communication passage 40 in cooperation with the cylinder hole 32 is formed continuously on the rear side of the annular step 34s, so that the hydraulic pressure from the hydraulic pump 19 affects the spool valve 34 itself. Since the forward and rearward thrust can be balanced (cancelled), the spool valve 34 can be smoothly slid accordingly.
[0024]
A bypass passage 41 is formed in the valve box 33 on one side of the spool valve 34 to bypass the communication passage 40 and short-circuit the output ports 30 and 31. This bypass passage 36 is provided with a ball valve type check valve 37 that allows only the flow of hydraulic oil from the output port 31 to the input port 30 (that is, return oil from the hydraulic cylinder 5 to the oil tank 18). The set valve opening pressure of the check valve 37 adjusts the set load of the valve spring 38 by appropriately rotating an adjusting screw 39 that is also used as a spring receiving means for supporting the return spring 38 of the valve 37. Can be arbitrarily adjusted. Thus, the check valve 37 is provided in the hydraulic cylinder 5 when there is heavy load on the load receiving table 3 in the descending process of the load receiving table 3 that is executed by arbitrarily opening the release valve 26. In order to prevent the return oil flow from the oil tank 18 to the oil tank 18 side from being throttled and slowed down by the spool valve 34 (taper portion 34t), the valve is opened in response to an increase in the differential pressure between the input and output ports 30 and 31. Thus, the descending operation of the load receiving platform 3 can be performed smoothly.
[0025]
Further, between the spool valve 34 and the load receiving platform 3, the spool valve 34 is moved back from the forward movement position A to the backward movement position C in conjunction with the rise of the load receiving rack 3 from the vicinity 3 U ′ of the upper limit position U to the upper limit position 3 U. An interlocking mechanism I is provided. This interlocking mechanism I is fixed to the outer end portion of the support shaft 9 in the parallel link mechanism 4 and extends outward from the support arm 52, and is screwed into the tip of the arm 52 so that the head portion of the spool valve 34. , And a pressing bolt 54 as a pressing member that can come into contact with the outer end 34 a extending to the outside of the valve casing 33, and a screwing position of the bolt 54 with respect to the support arm 52 can be fixed to the bolt 54. The lock nut 53 is screwed. Thus, the pressing bolt 54 abuts against the outer end 34a of the spool valve 34 and moves the valve 34 backward only when the load receiving platform 3 is at the upper limit position 3U shown in FIG.
[0026]
Next, the operation of the embodiment will be described. When the hydraulic cylinder 5 is contracted and the load receiving platform 3 is at the lower limit position as shown by a chain line in FIG. 1, the pressing bolt 54 is not in contact with the spool valve 34, so the spool valve 34 is moved forward by the valve spring 35. In this state, the passage cross-sectional area of the opening 31a of the output port 31 (therefore, the communication passage 40 between the ports 30 and 31) is maximum.
[0027]
Here, when the hydraulic pump 19 is operated to raise the load receiving platform 3, a large amount of the discharged oil is supplied to the hydraulic cylinder 5 side through the discharge oil passage 21, whereby the hydraulic cylinder 5 is quickly expanded and expanded. The load receiving platform 3 that is linked to the operation via the parallel link mechanism 4 is quickly moved up.
[0028]
When the load receiving platform 3 reaches the vicinity 3U 'near the upper limit position 3U, the pressing bolt 54 of the interlocking mechanism I comes into contact with the outer end of the spool valve 34, whereby the valve 34 starts to move backward. The spool valve 34 retreats in conjunction with the further elevation of the load receiving platform 3, and the communication passage 40 (therefore, the flow of hydraulic oil from the hydraulic pump 19 to the hydraulic cylinder 5 side) gradually moves along with the retraction operation. Since it is narrowed down, the ascending load receiving tray 3 can be bufferedly stopped at the upper limit position 3U. Therefore, since the occurrence of an impact at the time of stopping is suppressed, the generation of vibration and noise due to the impact can be effectively prevented, and the displacement movement of the load on the load receiving platform 3 can be effectively suppressed.
[0029]
In this case, the communication passage 40 (and thus the flow of the hydraulic oil toward the hydraulic cylinder 5) is a process in which the spool valve 3 is retracted from the advance position A to a predetermined intermediate retract position B (section A → B in FIG. 7). Then, the valve 34 is throttled rapidly mainly by the annular step 34s, and then in the process in which the valve 34 is further retracted from the intermediate retracted position B (section B → C in FIG. 7), the valve 34 is gradually slowed by the tapered portion 34t. Therefore, it is possible to shorten the operation stroke of the valve 34 as much as possible while exerting the buffering effect required for the brake valve device V and reducing the impact when the upper limit position 3U of the load receiving table 3 arrives. The size of the brake valve device V can be reduced. Moreover, it is not necessary to decelerate the rising speed until the receiving platform 3 reaches the vicinity 3U 'near the upper limit position 3U during the rising process of the receiving platform 3, so that the required time for raising is shortened as much as possible to improve the work efficiency. .
[0030]
8 and 9 show a modified example of the spool valve 34 as a sliding valve. That is, in the previous embodiment, when providing the tapered portion 34t to the spool valve 34, the outer periphery of the rear half of the land portion 34Lf on the front side of the valve 34 is formed from the conical tapered surface. The outer periphery of the rear half of the land portion 34Lf has a cylindrical shape, and a tapered groove 34t whose passage cross-sectional area (groove width / groove bottom) gradually increases toward the rear of the outer peripheral surface corresponds to the opening 31a of the front port 31. At least one strip (a plurality of strips in the illustrated example) is formed, and this is a tapered portion. Thus, this modification can also be expected to have the same effect as the above-described embodiment.
[0031]
As mentioned above, although the Example of this invention was described, this invention is not limited to the Example, A various Example is possible within the scope of the present invention. For example, in the above-described embodiment, an example is shown in which the present invention is applied to a cargo handling vehicle of a type in which the load receiving platform 3 is supported on the vehicle body 1 via the parallel link mechanism 4 so as to be capable of moving up and down. You may apply to the cargo handling vehicle of the type which supported the load receiving stand so that vertical raising / lowering was possible.
[0032]
In the above embodiment, the output port 31 is disposed in front of the input port 30 so that the annular step portion 34s and the taper portion 34t of the spool valve 34 sequentially pass through the opening 31a of the output port 31. In the present invention, the input port 30 is disposed in front of the output port 31 so that the annular step 34s and the tapered portion 34t of the spool valve 34 pass through the opening of the input port 30 sequentially. Good.
[0033]
Further, in the above-described embodiment, the annular step portion 34s is formed at the rear end of the tapered portion 34t provided on the outer periphery of the spool valve 34. In the present invention (claims 1 and 2), the rear portion of the tapered portion 34t is provided. The bottom of the annular recess 34g may be continuous without the stepped portion at the end, and the annular stepped portion may be omitted.
[0034]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, between the hydraulic cylinder that can drive the load receiving table up and the hydraulic supply source that supplies hydraulic oil to the hydraulic cylinder, the hydraulic supply source supplies the hydraulic pressure in the ascending process of the load receiving table. A brake valve device is provided to stop the ascending operation of the load receiving buffer in a buffering manner by gradually reducing the flow of hydraulic oil toward the cylinder after the load receiving base reaches the vicinity of the upper limit position. The ascending load cradle can be buffered to the upper limit position, so that the shock during the stop can be mitigated, and vibration and noise caused by the shock can be effectively prevented, and the load cradle It is possible to suppress the shifting movement of the upper load.
[0035]
According aspect of the present invention in particular 1, while in the retracted course of sliding valve operating until the tapered rear end passes through the opening rear end of one port (i.e. the front tapered portion rear end than the opening rear end The taper is gradually throttled in the sliding direction of the valve in the direction of the valve, and after the passage (that is, the rear end of the taper moves backward from the rear end of the opening). After that, the taper part can gradually narrow the rear part of the communication path from the opening part in the radial direction of the valve. As a result, the taper part supplies hydraulic pressure in the process of raising the communication path (and hence the load receiving platform). The flow of hydraulic oil from the power source toward the hydraulic cylinder) can be effectively throttled in two ways of throttling, so that the shock is generated when the upper limit position of the load receiving platform is reached with the brake valve device exhibiting sufficient buffering effect. Can be effectively suppressed, and the buffer characteristics can be diversified. It is possible.
[0036]
In particular, according to the invention of claim 2 , the communication valve between the input and output ports (therefore, the flow of hydraulic oil from the hydraulic supply source toward the hydraulic cylinder in the ascending process of the load receiving platform) In the process of retreating to the intermediate retracted position, the valve can be rapidly throttled by the annular stepped portion of the valve, and then in the process of further retreating the slide valve from the intermediate retracted position, the valve can be gently throttled by the tapered portion. As a result, the stroke of the valve can be shortened as much as possible while exerting a sufficient buffering effect on the brake valve device to mitigate the impact when the upper limit position of the cargo cradle arrives. In addition, since it is not necessary to decelerate the rising speed until the load receiving table reaches the vicinity of the upper limit position in the process of ascending the load receiving table, it is possible to improve the working efficiency by shortening the time required for rising as much as possible.
[0037]
In particular, according to the invention of claim 3 , the annular recess that forms the communication path with the cylinder hole is formed continuously on the rear side of the annular step portion in the outer peripheral portion of the sliding valve. The axial thrust exerted by the hydraulic pressure on the sliding valve itself can be balanced back and forth, and the sliding valve can be slid smoothly.
