ATTACHMENT FOR STRADDLE CARRIER Filed Sept. 16, 1959 OVE F. CHRISTIANSEN ATTORNEY United rates li atenr 3,tl66,814 ATTAQHMENT FUR STRADDLE CARRIER Ove F. Christiansen, CopenhagemVanlose, Denmark, as-
Signor to Lars Arnhmr & Company, Copenhagen, Denmark Filed Sept. 16, 1959, Ser. No. 840,364 8 Claims. ill. 2l4392) This application relates an attachment for straddle carrier and the like, and more particularly to a lifting unit for the transportation of steel plates and the like.
Straddle carrier vehicles of known construction have gradually come to enjoy widespread application in the handling and transportation of long rod-shaped articles for example, wood trunks, pipes and the like. Various types of auxiliary equipment and attachments for straddle carriers have been utilized in the past to widen the field of application of the vehicle. The present invention relates to an attachment device in the form of a lifting unit which is especially suitable for the transportation of steel plates and the like.
It is known that by means of a conventional straddle carrier construction having the usual pivoted lifting hooks, that the vehicle can engage, lift and transport single or multiple plates which are chocked up on a support, but that it is especially difficult to enable the lifting hooks of the carrier to engage and remove one or more plates from the top of a stack of plates.
It is therefore an important object of the present invention to provide a lifting unit which is adapted to be associated with a straddle carrier and which is especially suitable for engaging and transporting one or more plates as aforesaid.
Another object is to provide a lifting unit of the type specified which reduces to a minimum the amount of space taken up by the attachment within the material handling space of the carrier structure.
A further object of the invention is to provide a device of the type contemplated which is capable of operating with maximum safety to personnel and equipment.
Still a further object of the invention is to generally improve the construction of attachment devices of the type contemplated.
These and other objects and advantages of the present invention, as will appear in the course of the description which follows below, are effected in the use of a vertically movable, longitudinally extending supporting frame having associated therewith a plurality of suspended lifting magnets; end portions of the magnet carrying supporting frame project substantially beyond both ends of the carrier and are provided with motor means, such as hydraulic cylinder and piston assemblies, for varying the efiective length of suspension members, such as cables, in order that the supporting frame may be raised and lowered as desired within the carrier body.
The arrangement of motor means on each opposite end portion of the magnet supporting frame aid-s in effecting the desirable result of maximizing the availability of space within the body of the straddle carrier; also, no interference with operator visibility results in the use of the preferred embodiment of the invention, and, at the same time, safe operation may be assured in the use of a motor design which limits to a predetermined maximum the load which can be transported by the carrier. Within the limitations of maximum safe loading, the lifting magnets can be designed to support readily a load of any given magnitude so that, together with the aforesaid motors, overloading of the carrier is avoided and a selected safety factor provided. Such construction is preferred to one wherein safety against overloading of the carrier is obtained by adjustment of the carrying capacity of the lifting ice magnets, in which case there is a risk that a load suspended from the magnets might be separated therefrom during transportation.
Suspension of the supporting frame on cables or equivalent means provides an advantage in that the frame is movable both longitudinally and transversely relative to the carrier when said frame is in a lowered position, whereby metal plates or other objects to be transported may be readily engaged even though the load lies in an inclined position relative to the carrier. When the straddle carrier is transporting such a load, it is, of course, desirable that the supporting frame be fixed in position relative to the carrier, which is readily accomplished in practice by locking the frame in relation to the carrier when the frame is in its upper position.
In a preferred embodiment of the lifting unit, the hydraulic cylinder motors are located lengthwise of the frame and each operates a suspension cable in a manner to be described. Preferably, the lifting unit has four independent hydraulic cylinder assemblies connected to a common pressure source, said cylinder assemblies being located side by side in pairs at each end of the supporting frame. Engine driven pumps which normally serve as a power source for operating the lifting books of the carrier may readily function as a common source for the hydraulic cylinder assemblies.
The lifting unit of the present invention is preferably adapted to be used in combination with the lifting hooks of straddle carriers, as aforesaid, wherein the supporting frame of the lifting unit is suspended from an attachment comprising an auxiliary straddle structure which is adapted to be carried by the lifting hooks of the carrier. Thus, the auxiliary straddle structure can be used with carriers of conventional design, and can, along with the lifting unit and associated structure, be readily mounted and dis mounted as desired, whereby to relieve the straddle carrier for other applications.
In the drawings:
FIGURE 1 shows a straddle carrier in side elevation and equipped with a lifting unit and auxiliary straddle structure, according to the invention; and
FIGURE 2 is a front elevational view of the construction shown in FIGURE 1.
The straddle carrier, as illustrated, is of conventional design and comprises two forward supporting legs 1 and two rear supporting legs 2, pairs of laterally spaced longitudinal frame members 3 and 4, and transverse tubular frame portions 5. Each of the carrier legs is associated .with a dirigible wheel 6, at least one pair of which are drive wheels. The superstructure of the carrier supports in a conventional manner a housing 7 which contains the engine and affords an operator station.
The straddle carrier further includes known lifting hooks 8 which extend along each side of the carrier and are suspended in the frame thereof so that they are adapted to be raised and lowered, as well as being swingable inwardly and outwardly. The lifting hooks 8 are, for the present purpose, assumed to be locked in the position shown in the drawing, and carry an auxiliary straddle structure which includes a plurality of pairs of upwardly extending side members or legs 9 and a transversely extending member 10 which forms a bridge structure. Members 9 are connected together at the lower ends thereof and longitudinally of the carrier structure by a pair of stringer members 9'. Cushioning blocks 11 preferably depend from transverse tubular members 5 for engagement with the bridge member If when the auxiliary structure is raised, as shown, whereby to firmly hold the auxiliary structure in position during movement of the carrier.
The auxiliary straddle structure 9, 9', 1% has mounted see ers at each of its upper four corner portions an anchor block 12 to which is secured a cable 13 which is adapted to serve as a hoisting and carrying cable for a supporting magnet frame 14. The length of the supporting frame 14 preferably 'is substantially greater than that of the straddle carrier, as shown. Each cable 13 is associated with a hydraulic cylinder 15 which is mounted lengthwise on the supporting frame 14 by a bracket 15 beyond the adjacent end of the straddle carrier and the auxiliary straddle structure 9, 1-0. A piston rod 16 of each cylin- .der carries at its free end a sheave 17 and the associated cable 13 forms a bight between a guide sheave 13 on the upper side of the supporting frame 14 and a fixed point 19 on the associated hydraulic cylinder 15.
In the position shown in the drawing, the four piston rods 16 are fully extended, under which condition the supporting frame 14 is raised fully. In this position the supporting frame 14 may engage stops, not shown, and so be located positively in relation to the auxiliary structure 9, 10, and also in relation to the straddle carrier. ,An inward movement of the piston rods 16 causes the supporting frame 14 to be lowered by increasing the effective cable length in a vertical direction, i.e., by increasing the length of the piece of cable extending from each of the anchor blocks 12 to the corresponding sheave 18.
The supporting frame 14 has a plurality of freely suspended lifting magnets 20, each of which are carried by three chains or cables 21, as shown, and are mounted such that the bottom surfaces of the various magnets are co-planar so as to facilitate the engagement and carrying of a plate member 2-2, for example.
It will be understood that the free height or space with- .in the straddle carrier bridge is maximized by a construction which provides hydraulic cylinders 15 located at the free ends of the supporting frame 14. Of course, the said cylinders need not be mounted longitudinally of the supporting frame, as shown, but could be readily located transversely, or, less desirably, in an upright position. in the latter arrangement some interference with operator visibility is to be expected, as well as possibly undesirably increasing the total height of the carrier.
