CARRYING ROBOT
The present disclosure provides a carrying robot which includes a movement chassis, a shelving unit, and a carrying apparatus. The shelving unit is disposed on the movement chassis. The carrying apparatus includes a connecting base and a first goods fork assembly. A first end of the connecting base is connected to a side of the shelving unit. A second end of the connecting base extends in a horizontal direction away from the shelving unit. The connecting base moves vertically relative to the shelving unit.
The first goods fork assembly includes a first mounting plate which is connected to a side of the second end of the connecting base facing the movement chassis and two first side plates which are disposed opposite on two sides of the first mounting plate in a width direction of the first goods fork assembly.
Load clamping wear-plate systems
This invention relates to providing a system for improved wear protection for the lift plates of industrial lift trucks. More particularly this invention relates to providing a system for providing increased wear protection on replaceable lift-blade attachments for industrial forklifts and similar load-lifting trucks.
Fork assembly for forklifts
A fork assembly can include multiple forks configured to surround a load. Multiple attachments can be made on the forks to couple to straps for support a load. The fork assembly can further include multiple fork extensions having end attachments to couple to straps for pulling on the load. Alternatively, the fork assembly can include multiple fork lifters having blades rotatable between a non-lift position and a lift position. The fork extensions can also have blades rotatable between a non-pullable position and a pullable position. The blade rotation can be performed by a remote rotate mechanism by an operator operating the fork assembly. In some embodiments, the fork attachment assembly for a forklift or a forklift vehicle can include roller legs coupled at far ends of the fork beams or the fork extensions. The fork assembly can include roller legs coupled at far ends of the fork beams or the fork extensions. The fork assembly can include a clamping device coupled at a far end of the fork beam or the fork extension.
High visibility load clamp with asymmetrical gussets
An asymmetrical gusseted clamp assembly configured to be coupled to a lift truck and comprising a frame, two clamp jaws and two actuators. The clamp jaws each have gussets of different size to allow the two actuators to be separated vertically by a central gap, which is defined on the sides by two frame vertical beams. The central gap is of significant width so that the operator of the lift truck has a useable widow through which to view. As the configuration of the asymmetrical gusseted clamp assembly changes from open to closed, at no time is a majority of the view through the central gap obscured by the clamp jaws.
GRIPPER ASSEMBLY FOR PORTABLE BIOCHAR KILN
A gripper assembly for a portable biochar kiln and system is disclosed. An example of a gripper includes an attachment for connecting to a loader, the attachment having a mating surface configured for engagement with the biochar kiln. The example gripper assembly also includes a substantially C-shaped claw having a first arm and a second arm. The example gripper assembly also includes a motor on the attachment. The motor operates to open and close the first and second arms in a pinch-and-release motion to grasp and release the biochar kiln. The motor further operates to rotate the first and second arms to tilt the biochar kiln for dumping operations. The motor further operates to raise and lower the first and second arms to raise and lower the biochar kiln relative to the ground for moving operations.
BIDIRECTIONALLY EXTENSIBLE SIDE-SHIFTING LAYER-PICKING LOAD CLAMP ASSEMBLY
A layer-picking load-clamping and lifting assembly for mounting on a lift truck is capable of bidirectionally side-shifting a load-clamping assembly substantially straightly along a side-shifting length. The load clamping assembly has opposed clamp arms each selectively movable along a direction parallel to the side-shifting length so as to be selectively separable in a plurality of different possible relationships.
LIFTER FOR STACKED TRAYS
The lifter for stacked trays is a motorized lifting device for stacked trays, such as bread trays, and includes a substantially U-shaped base and a vertical frame. A moveable frame assembly is slidably mounted on the vertical frame. The moveable frame assembly includes a horizontal frame member and a pair of engaging swing arms. Rear ends of the engaging swing arms are respectively pivotally secured to a pair of horizontally opposed ends of the horizontal frame member. A motor selectively raises and lowers the moveable frame assembly. A pair of vertical rods are respectively mounted to the pair of engaging swing arms adjacent the rear ends thereof. When a stack of trays engage the pair of vertical rods, to rearward movement of the stack of trays causes the pair of engaging swing arms to rotate inwardly to contact the side edges of the adjacent tray in the stack.
Device for Traversing an Object
A device for allowing work to be carried out on or about an object includes at least one gripping arrangement. The at least one gripping arrangement is configured to grip and traverse the object so as to reach a desired location on the object and to anchor the device thereto for allowing the work to be carried out.
Systems and Methods for a Clamp With Power and Communications Contacts
A material handling vehicle may include a clamp assembly, the clamp assembly including a housing, a grip assembly, and a power source. The grip assembly may be pivotally engaged with the housing. The power source may be in electrical communication with the grip assembly. The grip assembly includes a lobe pivotally engaged with the housing and a contact supported by the lobe, the contact being electrically conductive.
Clamp force control system for lift truck attachment with secondary hydraulic force control circuit
The improved hydraulic system utilizes a secondary hydraulic force control circuit that changes the gripping force on the load independently of movement of the clamp arms.
