Abstract

The present disclosure is related to an electric pallet truck. The electric pallet truck includes a frame, a lifting unit, and a walking unit. The lifting unit is configured to adjust a height of the frame. The walking unit is configured to drive the frame to move. The lifting unit includes a lifting mechanism fixedly connected to the frame and a hydraulic mechanism configured to control a lifting of the lifting mechanism. The walking unit includes a driving mechanism configured at a bottom of the lifting mechanism.

Claims (64)

1. An electric pallet truck, comprising:

a frame;

a lifting unit adjusting a height of the frame; and

a walking unit driving the frame to move; wherein:

the lifting unit includes a lifting mechanism fixedly connected to the frame and a hydraulic mechanism controlling lifting of the lifting mechanism, the walking unit includes a driving mechanism disposed on a bottom of the lifting mechanism;

wherein: the driving mechanism includes a gear transmission unit and a gear box accommodating the gear transmission unit;

the lifting mechanism includes a bearing component;

the gear box is located at a bottom of the bearing component;

the gear transmission unit includes a second motor fixed on the gear box, a drive gear rotatably connected with the second motor, and a gear sleeve rotatably connected with the drive gear;

the gear sleeve is fixedly connected with a driving wheel;

a rotation of the second motor drives a rotation of the drive gear and a rotation of the gear sleeve;

the gear transmission unit includes a shaft gear disposed between the drive gear and the gear sleeve; and

the shaft gear is coaxially disposed with the drive gear and meshes with the gear sleeve;

the gear transmission unit includes a pinion gear disposed between the second motor and the drive gear; and

the pinion gear is sleeved on a motor shaft of the second motor and meshes with the drive gear.

2. The electric pallet truck of claim 1 , wherein:

the electric pallet truck includes a power supply unit disposed on an end of the frame; and

the power supply unit is supplying power to at least one of the hydraulic mechanism or the driving mechanism.

3. The electric pallet truck of claim 2 , wherein:

the hydraulic mechanism is disposed on the end of the frame, and the hydraulic mechanism is located on the power supply unit.

4. The electric pallet truck of claim 2 , wherein:

the power supply unit includes a power connector and a box battery connected to the power connector; and

a connection between the power connector and the box battery is a quick-plug type.

5. The electric pallet truck of claim 4 , wherein:

the frame is provided with a mounting part fixing the power connector;

the power connector is provided with a plug component;

the box battery is provided with a power supply port; and

the movement of the box battery relative to the power connector along a first direction can realize a connection and a separation between the plug component and the power supply port.

6. The electric pallet truck of claim 5 , wherein:

the mounting part includes a mounting groove disposed on a plate of the frame.

7. The electric pallet truck of claim 1 , wherein:

the lifting mechanism includes the bearing component and a cylinder seat fixed on the bearing component; and

an end of a piston rod on the cylinder seat is fixedly connected to the frame.

8. The electric pallet truck of claim 7 , wherein:

the hydraulic mechanism includes an oil tank disposed on the frame, a valve group disposed on the oil tank, a first motor configured on the valve group and controlling the valve group, and a relay configured on a side of the first motor; and

the valve group is connected to the piston rod through a lifting oil pipe.

9. The electric pallet truck of claim 1 , wherein:

the electric pallet truck includes a link unit connected with the frame and the lifting unit;

the link unit includes a support shaft fixedly disposed on the frame, a first rib and a second rib rotatably disposed on the support shaft;

a first end of the first rib is connected with the lifting unit; and

a first end of the second rib is connected with the frame.

10. The electric pallet truck of claim 9 , wherein:

a second end of the first rib is rotatably connected with the bearing component of the lifting mechanism; and

a second end of the second rib is rotatably connected with a push rod of the frame.

11. The electric pallet truck of claim 9 , wherein:

the first rib is connected with the second rib through a spacer.

12. The electric pallet truck of claim 1 , wherein:

the electric pallet truck includes a control unit connected with the driving mechanism;

an accelerator is configured on an operating rod of the control unit; and

the accelerator is adjusting a rotation rate of the second motor.

13. The electric pallet truck of claim 7 , wherein:

a side of the power supply unit is provided with a baffle;

the baffle is fixedly installed on the frame; and

the end of the piston rod is fixedly connected with the baffle.

14. The electric pallet truck of claim 13 , wherein:

the frame includes a plate; and

the baffle is fixedly disposed on the plate.

15. The electric pallet truck of claim 13 , wherein:

a side of the baffle is provided with a first cover;

the first cover is fixed on the frame; and

a side of the driving mechanism is provided with a second cover.

16. The electric pallet truck of claim 15 , wherein:

the electric pallet truck includes a switch; and

the switch is provided on at least one of the baffle, the piston rod, or the first cover.
