[0054] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the base mechanism 100 has an overall support effect for the entire machine, and includes a steering wheel bearing mechanism 101, a combined wheel bearing mechanism 102, an intermediate connector 130, and a counterweight assembly 104; the intermediate connector 130 further includes an upper bearing track 131, a lower bearing track 132, a rack beam 133, and a connecting beam 134; the upper bearing tracks 131 and the lower bearing tracks 132 are respectively two, and are arranged in parallel with each other; and the steering wheel bearing mechanism 101 and the combined wheel bearing mechanism 102 are respectively disposed on the two sides of the upper bearing track 131 and the lower bearing track 132, so as to form a rectangular base main-frame. Certainly, the base frame is not necessarily in a regular rectangular shape. Under the situation of ensuring the strength of the overall structure, the positions of the steering wheel bearing mechanism 101, the combined wheel bearing mechanism 102, the upper bearing track 131, and the lower bearing track 132 can be appropriately changed, which is commonly known and feasible. The structural assemblies can be independently dismantled and assembled, so as to satisfy the requirements for transition and transportation.

The rack beam 133 is disposed on the main frame of the base mechanism 100 without limiting specific positions as long as the rack beam does not conflict with the other components and can realize the functions thereof. For example, as shown in FIG. 2b, the rack beam is disposed under the lower bearing track 132.

[0056] As shown in FIG. 7, the steering and driving wheel assembly 110 includes a wheel drive apparatus 111, a double-tyre rim combination 112, a right angle support structure 113, and a toothless slewing bearing 114; the wheel drive apparatus 111 is preferably a hydraulic motor. The fixed and combined wheel assembly 120 includes a fixed support base 121, a combined balance cross-beam 122, a swing support center shaft 123, a double-tyre rim combination 112, and a right angle support structure 113. Wherein the steering and driving wheel assembly 110 can rotate, in a universal wheel manner, around a vertical axis thereof via the toothless slewing bearing 114; the fixed and combined wheel assembly 120 is fixed, and cannot rotate around the vertical central axis thereof furthermore, the fluctuation and instability of the entire machine due to an uneven ground road can be reduced via by combined balance cross-beam 122 and the swing support center shaft 123; and the approximate three-point support design can provide the maximum stability and ensure all the wheels to drive on the ground safely. The wheels used by the two are both the double-tyre rim combination 112, and the components for fixing the wheels are both the right angle support structure 113.

[0057] The steering and driving wheel assembly 110 and the fixed and combined wheel assembly 120 form a wheel drive assembly of the loader, and are main functional components for movement and operation of the entire machine; the steering and driving wheel assembly 110 and the fixed and combined wheel assembly 120 on the left and right sides adopt independent power structures, and can realize speed reduction, speed regulation, and zero speed brake by means of the cooperative operations of the power system assembly, the hydraulic control assembly, the electric control assembly, and the wireless remote control of the power system 160.

Therefore, under the cooperative operations of the power system assembly, the hydraulic control assembly, the electric control assembly, and the wireless remote control of the power system 160, when the horizontal adjustment cylinder 331 extends and retracts, the sling mechanism 300 performs horizontal left and right rotation around the horizontal adjustment hinge shaft 333, and the sling twist lock of the sling mechanism 300 is driven to align with the container hoisting hole; the comprehensive bearing capacity thereof satisfies a requirement for a maximum operating load, and electrically and hydraulically self-locking functions are provided.

[0071] As shown in FIG. 4, the intermediate gantry lifting mechanism 410 consists of a gantry lift cylinder 411 and a lift cylinder support 412; the lift cylinder supports 412 are two, and are respectively disposed at a lower end of the main-post outer-gantry assembly 210 of the combined gantry structure assembly 200, and on the intermediate gantry cross-beam 222 of the intermediate gantry cross-beam assembly 220; and the two ends of the gantry lift cylinder 411 are respectively connected to the two lift cylinder supports 412. Therefore, under the cooperative operations of the power system assembly, the hydraulic control assembly, the electric control assembly, and the wireless remote control of the power system 160, when the gantry lift cylinder 411 extends and retracts, the intermediate gantry cross-beam assembly 220 is driven to move up and down, then the hoisting frame combination structure 311 is driven to move up and down, and finally the sling mechanism 300 moves up and down; the bearing capacity thereof satisfies the requirement for the maximum operating load, and the electrically and hydraulically self-locking functions are provided.

[0072] As shown in FIG. 5, the combined gantry inclination mechanism 420 consists of a gantry inclination cylinder 421 and an inclination cylinder support 422. The inclination cylinder supports 422 are two, and are respectively disposed at an upper end of the main-post outer-gantry assembly 210 of the combined gantry structure assembly 200, and an upper end of the canting-pull structure combination 231 of the combined gantry canting-pull assembly 230; and the two ends of the gantry inclination cylinder 421 are respectively connected to the two inclination cylinder supports 422. Therefore, under the cooperative operations of the power system assembly, the hydraulic control assembly, the electric control assembly, and the wireless remote control of the power system 160, when the gantry inclination cylinder 421 extends and retracts, the combined gantry structure assembly 200 is driven to rotate around a combined gantry connection hinge shaft 240 and inclines, and the sling mechanism 300 inclines forward, so as to satisfy a requirement for alignment and unlocking of a sling twist lock and a container hoisting hole. The bearing capacity thereof satisfies the requirement for the maximum operating load, and the electrically and hydraulically self-locking functions are provided.

[0073] As shown in FIG. 6, the combined gantry translation mechanism 430 consists of a gantry translation cylinder 431, a translation cylinder support 432, a cylinder head gear 433, an upper moving rack 434, and a lower fixed rack 435. The upper moving rack 434 is disposed under the canting-pull structure bottom-beam 232 of the combined gantry canting-pull assembly 230; the lower fixed rack 435 is disposed on the rack beam 133 of the intermediate connector 130; the translation cylinder support 432 is disposed on one side of the intermediate connector 130 of the base mechanism 100 adjacent to the steering wheel bearing structure 101 (namely disposed on the inner side of the base); one end of the gantry translation cylinder 431 connected to the translation cylinder support 432, and the other end is connected to the cylinder head gear 433; furthermore, the cylinder head gear 433 is disposed between the upper moving rack 434 and the lower fixed rack 435, such that the gantry translation cylinder 431 can drive the two racks to move relatively.

[0074] Therefore, under the cooperative operations of the power system assembly, the hydraulic control assembly, the electric control assembly, and the wireless remote control of the power system 160, when the gantry translation cylinder 431 extends and retracts, the cylinder head gear 433 drives the upper moving rack 434 to move left and right relative to the lower fixed rack 435, and then drives the combined gantry structure assembly 200 to entirely move left and right, so as to finally satisfy a requirement for the left and right movement of the sling mechanism 300 and the loaded container. The bearing capacity thereof also satisfies the requirement for the maximum operating load, and the electrically and hydraulically self-locking functions are provided.

[0075] In addition, in the loader, the base mechanism 100 and the combined gantry structure assembly 200 are mount bearing components of all the mechanisms and apparatuses, and the other components are directly or indirectly mounted on the two; the steering and driving wheel assembly 110 and the fixed and combined wheel assembly 120 form a wheel drive assembly.

[0076] The steering and driving wheel assembly 110 and the synchronously-steering assembly 150 are disposed under the steering wheel bearing mechanism 101; and the fixed and combined wheel assembly 120 is disposed under the combined wheel bearing mechanism 102. The upper bearing track 131 and the lower bearing track 132 of the intermediate connector 130 bear the maximum load transferred from bearing side cross-beam 233 and the bearing wearable slide block 234 of the combined gantry structure assembly 200. The rack beam 133 and the upper rack mounting base beam 235 are used to mount the upper moving rack 434 and the lower fixed rack 435. The intermediate connector 130 is a connector which can be split into a left and a right structures, and has high enough strength and rigidity. The rear-mounted counterweight assembly 104 is an assembly to ensure the stability of the entire machine during operation, and is also an assembly in a separable structure form.
