Definitions

  • the present disclosure is related to the field of jacks and lifts for use in safely raising and lowering heavy objects, in particular, wedge jacks and scissor lifts operated by linear actuators and that incorporate integral safety features.
  • jacks and lifting devices are used in a wide variety of industries for lifting many different types of loads.
  • Each of the various designs of jacks and lifting devices possesses distinct advantages and disadvantages. Thus, it is important to choose a design that is suited to the specific lifting requirements of the task at hand.
  • Scissor lifts which are well known, are very compact and possess low height profiles. These characteristics allow scissor lifts to function when limited clearance is available beneath a load. Scissor lifts are also advantageous because they are simple in design, and provide a stable and parallel movement of the load-bearing surface with respect to the base of the lift.
  • scissor lifts that are driven by horizontally-oriented actuators are very inefficient, particularly during the initial stage of the lift. During this initial stage, a relatively large amount of horizontal force is required to raise the load on the scissor lift because only a small percentage of the horizontal force is translated into vertical force.
  • Another well-known lifting apparatus is the wedge jack.
  • Wedge jacks are advantageous in that they are capable of lifting very heavy loads and are also very simple in design.
  • Shortcomings of wedge jacks include difficultly in designing a jack such that the load-bearing surface remains horizontally stationary as it moves vertically; issues with friction between the moving surfaces in the jack; and design constraints with respect to the positioning of the linear actuator that drives the jack as well as the overall housing of the jack, which must contain moving and stationary wedges over the range of the lift.
  • a wedge jack/scissor lift hybrid lifting apparatus is provided.
  • the hybrid lifting apparatus can comprise a wedge driven by a linear actuator, with the linear actuator fixed to a central trunnion of a scissor lift assembly and the wedge oriented within the scissor lift such that extending the actuator causes the wedge to raise the scissor lift, and retracting the actuator causes the wedge to lower the scissor lift.

  • the first and second sides can comprise a first scissor arm, a second scissor arm, an L-shaped upper frame member and an L- shaped lower frame member.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif hybride à décintreur/table élévatrice à ciseaux permettant de lever des charges lourdes, le dispositif comprenant un actionneur orienté horizontalement accouplé à un coin qui agit sur des rouleaux inférieurs et supérieurs accouplés à une table élévatrice à ciseaux. En fonctionnement, l'actionneur peut entraîner le coin entre les rouleaux, ce qui les écarte pour lever la table élévatrice à ciseaux. Lorsque l'actionneur se rétracte, le coin est enlevé et la table élévatrice à ciseaux se replie sous l'effet du poids de la charge. Le coin peut être d'une forme telle que la table élévatrice a une ou plusieurs positions de sécurité intrinsèque dans lesquelles les rouleaux sur la table élévatrice à ciseaux peuvent se placer dans des sièges sur le coin, ce qui empêche la table élévatrice à ciseaux de se replier en cas d'une défaillance d'actionneur. L'invention concerne aussi un mécanisme de sécurité facultatif à barre de retenue.
