随着AGV技术的不断发展,越来越多的搬运工作可交由AGV叉车完成。由于AGV叉车无需人工操作,自动化程度高,因此,能够极大的降低人力成本,并缩短作业时间。With the continuous development of AGV technology, more and more handling tasks can be completed by AGV forklifts. Since AGV forklifts do not require manual operation and have a high degree of automation, they can greatly reduce labor costs and shorten operating times.
但随着AGV叉车的普及,使得AGV叉车的工作环境更加多样,当AGV叉车在一些地面凹凸不平的恶劣工作环境中作业时,无论是承载车还是举升车均面临着陷入凹坑或卡滞在凸包上导致整体叉车无法继续作业的情况。由于工作环境较难改变,因此,使得现阶段的AGV叉车的作业范围仍具有一定的局限性。However, with the popularity of AGV forklifts, the working environment of AGV forklifts has become more diverse. When AGV forklifts operate in some harsh working environments with uneven floors, both load-bearing trucks and lift trucks are faced with sinking into pits or getting stuck. The convex hull causes the entire forklift to be unable to continue working. Since the working environment is difficult to change, the current operating range of AGV forklifts still has certain limitations.
因此,急需提供一种叉车机器人及工作方法,以在一定程度上解决相关技术中存在的问题。Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a forklift robot and a working method to solve the problems existing in related technologies to a certain extent.

当承载装置在行走过程中遇到地面出现凸起时,由于第一调节机构与第一行走机构转动连接,因此,第一行走机构的行走轮对应的位置能够向接近承载外壳的方向运动,当行走轮经过凸起的最高点继续行进时,行走轮对应的位置向远离承载外壳的方向运动。由于在此过程中仅是第一行走机构产生相对承载外壳的运动,因此,使承载外壳的承载面始终保持在水平方向,从而能够在一定程度上提升整体叉车机器人的越障能力的同时,保证承载外壳的平稳,使运行以及运输货物过程中能够更加稳定。When the load-bearing device encounters a bulge on the ground during walking, since the first adjustment mechanism is rotationally connected to the first running mechanism, the corresponding position of the running wheel of the first running mechanism can move in a direction close to the load-bearing shell. When the running wheel continues to travel past the highest point of the protrusion, the corresponding position of the running wheel moves away from the load-bearing shell. Since only the first traveling mechanism moves relative to the load-bearing shell during this process, the load-bearing surface of the load-bearing shell is always kept in the horizontal direction, which can improve the obstacle surmounting ability of the overall forklift robot to a certain extent while ensuring that The stability of the load-bearing shell makes the operation and transportation of goods more stable.
而当承载装置带动举升装置移动的过程中,为避免由于举升装置遇到障碍产生卡滞影响整体叉车机器人的移动,本公开中通过在举升装置和驱动机构之间设置第二调节机构,且第二调节机构的一端与驱动机构活动连接,另一端与举升装置相连接,从而当举升装置 处于收入承载装置内的状态下运动遇到凸起时,举升装置远离第二调节机构的一端能够向上抬起,从而能够使举升装置越过地面凸起,在一定程度上避免由于举升装置在行进中与障碍相卡滞导致整体叉车无法行进的问题。When the carrying device drives the lifting device to move, in order to avoid jamming due to obstacles encountered by the lifting device and affecting the movement of the entire forklift robot, in the present disclosure, a second adjustment mechanism is provided between the lifting device and the driving mechanism. , and one end of the second adjustment mechanism is movably connected to the driving mechanism, and the other end is connected to the lifting device, so that when the lifting device is retracted into the bearing device and encounters a bulge during movement, the lifting device moves away from the second adjustment mechanism. One end of the mechanism can be lifted upward, allowing the lifting device to cross the bulge on the ground, thus avoiding to a certain extent the problem of the entire forklift being unable to move due to the lifting device getting stuck with obstacles during travel.
由于本公开提供的叉车机器人在作业时,需要使举升装置先伸出承载装置与托盘相对位,并将托盘举升后再收入承载装置。而当举升装置在伸出承载装置的过程中一旦遇到障碍,同样会影响整体叉车的作业。因此,本公开通过在承载外壳与举升装置之间设置的第三调节机构,当举升装置伸出时,由于举升装置与驱动机构之间设有第二调节机构,因此,第三调节机构能够将举升装置逐渐抬起并脱离地面,从而能够在一定程度上避免举升装置在伸出时遇到障碍导致无法继续伸出的问题。When the forklift robot provided by the present disclosure is operating, it is necessary for the lifting device to first extend out of the carrying device and position it relative to the pallet, and then lift the pallet and then retract it into the carrying device. Once the lifting device encounters an obstacle when extending out of the carrying device, it will also affect the operation of the entire forklift. Therefore, the present disclosure uses a third adjustment mechanism provided between the load-bearing shell and the lifting device. When the lifting device is extended, since the second adjustment mechanism is provided between the lifting device and the driving mechanism, the third adjustment mechanism The mechanism can gradually lift the lifting device off the ground, thereby avoiding to a certain extent the problem that the lifting device encounters obstacles when extending and cannot continue to extend.
而当举升装置在承载托盘后收入承载装置的过程中再次经过障碍时,通过第二调节机构同样能够在一定程度上避免举升装置出现卡滞的问题。When the lifting device passes an obstacle again when it is retracted into the carrying device after carrying the pallet, the second adjustment mechanism can also avoid the problem of jamming of the lifting device to a certain extent.
因此,本公开通过在对应位置设置的第一调节机构、第二调节机构以及第三调节机构,能够提高整体叉车的越障能力,使叉车机器人能够适应较恶劣的地形。Therefore, the present disclosure can improve the obstacle surmounting ability of the overall forklift through the first adjustment mechanism, the second adjustment mechanism and the third adjustment mechanism provided at corresponding positions, allowing the forklift robot to adapt to harsher terrains.

如图1-图6所示,本公开提供一种叉车机器人,该叉车机器人可以包括承载装置1、驱动装置以及举升装置7;承载装置1可以包括承载外壳101、第一行走机构以及第一调节机构103,第一调节机构103设置于承载外壳101和第一行走机构之间,且第一调节机构103与第一行走机构转动连接,以使承载外壳101的承载面能始终保持水平;驱动装置可 以包括驱动机构和第二调节机构4,驱动机构能够驱动举升装置7伸出或收入承载装置1,第二调节机构4的一端与驱动机构活动连接,另一端与举升装置7相连接;举升装置7和承载外壳101之间设有第三调节机构,第三调节机构能够在举升装置7伸出承载装置1的过程中将举升装置7抬离地面。As shown in Figures 1-6, the present disclosure provides a forklift robot. The forklift robot may include a carrying device 1, a driving device and a lifting device 7; the carrying device 1 may include a carrying shell 101, a first traveling mechanism and a first Adjustment mechanism 103. The first adjustment mechanism 103 is disposed between the bearing shell 101 and the first traveling mechanism, and the first adjustment mechanism 103 is rotationally connected to the first traveling mechanism so that the bearing surface of the bearing shell 101 can always remain level; drive The device may include a driving mechanism and a second adjusting mechanism 4. The driving mechanism can drive the lifting device 7 to extend or retract into the carrying device 1. One end of the second adjusting mechanism 4 is movably connected to the driving mechanism, and the other end is connected to the lifting device 7. ; A third adjustment mechanism is provided between the lifting device 7 and the bearing shell 101. The third adjustment mechanism can lift the lifting device 7 off the ground when the lifting device 7 extends out of the bearing device 1.
相对于相关技术,本公开提供的叉车机器人至少具有以下优势:Compared with related technologies, the forklift robot provided by the present disclosure has at least the following advantages:
本公开提供的叉车机器人,通过第一行走机构能够实现承载装置1的行走以及承载装置1带动举升装置7的行走,通过设置在承载外壳101和第一行走机构之间的第一调节机构103,能够实现承载外壳101和第一行走机构之间的相对运动。The forklift robot provided by the present disclosure can realize the walking of the carrying device 1 and the walking of the lifting device 7 driven by the carrying device 1 through the first traveling mechanism. The first adjusting mechanism 103 is provided between the carrying shell 101 and the first traveling mechanism. , enabling relative movement between the load-bearing shell 101 and the first walking mechanism.
当承载装置1在行走过程中遇到地面出现凸起时,由于第一调节机构103与第一行走机构转动连接,因此,第一行走机构的行走轮1025对应的位置能够向接近承载外壳101的方向运动,当行走轮1025经过凸起的最高点继续行进时,行走轮1025对应的位置向远离承载外壳101的方向运动。由于在此过程中仅是第一行走机构产生相对承载外壳101的运动,因此,使承载外壳101的承载面始终保持在水平方向,从而能够在一定程度上提升整体叉车机器人的越障能力的同时,保证承载外壳101的平稳,使运行以及运输货物过程中能够更加稳定。When the carrying device 1 encounters a bulge on the ground during walking, since the first adjusting mechanism 103 is rotationally connected to the first traveling mechanism, the corresponding position of the traveling wheel 1025 of the first traveling mechanism can be moved closer to the bearing shell 101 When the running wheel 1025 continues to move past the highest point of the protrusion, the corresponding position of the running wheel 1025 moves away from the bearing shell 101 . Since only the first traveling mechanism moves relative to the load-bearing shell 101 during this process, the load-bearing surface of the load-bearing shell 101 is always maintained in the horizontal direction, thereby improving the obstacle surmounting capability of the entire forklift robot to a certain extent. , ensuring the stability of the load-bearing shell 101, making the operation and cargo transportation process more stable.
而当承载装置1带动举升装置7移动的过程中,为避免由于举升装置7遇到障碍产生卡滞影响整体叉车机器人的移动,本公开中通过在举升装置7和驱动机构之间设置第二调节机构4,且第二调节机构4的一端与驱动机构活动连接,另一端与举升装置7相连接,从而当举升装置7处于收入承载装置1内的状态下运动遇到凸起时,举升装置7远离第二调节机构4的一端能够向上抬起,从而能够使举升装置7越过地面凸起,在一定程度上避免由于举升装置7在行进中与障碍相卡滞导致整体叉车无法行进的问题。When the carrying device 1 drives the lifting device 7 to move, in order to avoid jamming due to the lifting device 7 encountering obstacles and affecting the movement of the entire forklift robot, in this disclosure, a lifting device 7 is provided between the lifting device 7 and the driving mechanism. The second adjustment mechanism 4, and one end of the second adjustment mechanism 4 is movably connected to the driving mechanism, and the other end is connected to the lifting device 7, so that when the lifting device 7 is in the state of being retracted into the carrying device 1, it encounters a bulge when it moves. When the lifting device 7 is moved, the end of the lifting device 7 away from the second adjustment mechanism 4 can be lifted upward, so that the lifting device 7 can cross the bulge on the ground, thereby avoiding to a certain extent the problem caused by the lifting device 7 getting stuck with obstacles during travel. The entire forklift cannot move.
由于本公开提供的叉车机器人在作业时,需要使举升装置7先伸出承载装置1与托盘相对位,并将托盘举升后再收入承载装置1。而当举升装置7在伸出承载装置1的过程中一旦遇到障碍,同样会影响整体叉车的作业。因此,本公开通过在承载外壳101与举升装置7之间设置的第三调节机构,当举升装置7伸出时,由于举升装置7与驱动机构之间设有第二调节机构4,因此,第三调节机构能够将举升装置7逐渐抬起并脱离地面,从而能够在一定程度上避免举升装置7在伸出时遇到障碍导致无法继续伸出的问题。When the forklift robot provided by the present disclosure is operating, the lifting device 7 needs to be extended out of the carrying device 1 to be positioned relative to the pallet, and then the pallet is lifted and then retracted into the carrying device 1 . Once the lifting device 7 encounters an obstacle when extending out of the carrying device 1, it will also affect the operation of the entire forklift. Therefore, the present disclosure uses the third adjustment mechanism provided between the load-bearing shell 101 and the lifting device 7. When the lifting device 7 is extended, since the second adjustment mechanism 4 is provided between the lifting device 7 and the driving mechanism, Therefore, the third adjustment mechanism can gradually lift the lifting device 7 off the ground, thereby avoiding to a certain extent the problem that the lifting device 7 encounters obstacles when extending and cannot continue to extend.
而当举升装置7在承载托盘后收入承载装置1的过程中再次经过障碍时,通过第二调节机构4同样能够在一定程度上避免举升装置7出现卡滞的问题。When the lifting device 7 passes an obstacle again while loading the tray into the carrying device 1 , the second adjustment mechanism 4 can also prevent the lifting device 7 from getting stuck to a certain extent.
因此,本公开通过在对应位置设置的第一调节机构103、第二调节机构4以及第三调节机构,能够提高整体叉车的越障能力,使叉车机器人能够适应较恶劣的地形。Therefore, through the first adjustment mechanism 103, the second adjustment mechanism 4 and the third adjustment mechanism provided at corresponding positions, the present disclosure can improve the overall forklift's obstacle surmounting capability and enable the forklift robot to adapt to harsher terrains.
可以理解的是,为保证举升装置7的伸出量,因此,本公开中第二调节机构4与举升 装置7远离伸出端的一端相连接,举升装置7的伸出端为当举升装置7伸出承载装置1时首先探出的一端。相应地,本公开中第三调节机构实际上是将举升装置7的伸出端抬离地面,因此,如图5所示,第三调节机构位于接近举升装置7伸出端的位置。It can be understood that in order to ensure the extension amount of the lifting device 7, in this disclosure, the second adjustment mechanism 4 is connected to an end of the lifting device 7 away from the extension end, and the extension end of the lifting device 7 is when lifted. The end of the lifting device 7 that first protrudes when it extends out of the carrying device 1 . Correspondingly, in the present disclosure, the third adjustment mechanism actually lifts the extended end of the lifting device 7 off the ground. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 5 , the third adjustment mechanism is located close to the extended end of the lifting device 7 .

In this implementation, the second adjustment mechanism 4 may include a connecting seat 403 and a movable piece 404; the connecting seat 403 is connected to the connecting component 3, and chute 4031 extending in the vertical direction is formed on both sides of the connecting seat 403. The movable part 404 includes a mounting part 4042 and a connecting part 4041. One end of the connecting part 4041 extends into the chute 4031. inside, and the connecting part 4041 can reciprocate in the chute 4031 along the extension direction of the chute 4031. The other end of the connecting part 4041 is connected to one end of the mounting part 4042, and the other end of the connecting part 4041 is connected to the lifting device 7 .
在此种实施方式中,本公开提供的活动件404的连接部4041的一端伸入滑槽4031内,并始终保持在滑槽4031内,连接部4041的另一端与安装部4042相连接,安装部4042用于连接举升装置7,从而通过活动件404在滑槽4031内的滑动,实现举升装置7相对丝杆的运动,进而在一定程度上降低举升装置7在移动过程中出现卡滞的问题。In this embodiment, one end of the connecting portion 4041 of the movable component 404 provided by the present disclosure extends into the chute 4031 and is always kept in the chute 4031. The other end of the connecting portion 4041 is connected to the mounting portion 4042. The part 4042 is used to connect the lifting device 7, so that the movement of the lifting device 7 relative to the screw rod is realized through the sliding of the movable member 404 in the chute 4031, thereby reducing the jamming of the lifting device 7 during the movement to a certain extent. stagnation problem.
可以理解的是,由于连接座403上的滑槽4031沿竖直方向延伸,因此,在此种实施方式中,举升装置7的运动方向也为在竖直方向,而考虑到当举升装置7的伸出端首先接触障碍时,由于举升装置7具有一定长度,活动件404可能会出现相对滑槽4031无法运动的问题,导致举升装置7的卡滞。因此,在此种实施方式中,还可在连接部4041位于滑槽4031内的一端设置能够沿竖直方向伸缩的油缸或气缸等结构,从而在举升装置7跟随承载装置1运动的过程中,通过油缸或气缸直接将举升装置7抬离地面,避免举升装置7与地面相接触对承载装置1的运动产生影响的问题。而当需要举升装置7伸出举升待转运托盘时,再将举升装置7放回至地面。It can be understood that since the chute 4031 on the connecting base 403 extends in the vertical direction, in this embodiment, the movement direction of the lifting device 7 is also in the vertical direction. Considering that when the lifting device When the extended end of 7 first contacts an obstacle, since the lifting device 7 has a certain length, the movable part 404 may be unable to move relative to the chute 4031, causing the lifting device 7 to become stuck. Therefore, in this embodiment, a structure such as an oil cylinder or a cylinder that can expand and contract in the vertical direction can also be provided at one end of the connecting portion 4041 located in the chute 4031, so that when the lifting device 7 follows the movement of the carrying device 1 , the lifting device 7 is directly lifted off the ground through the oil cylinder or air cylinder, so as to avoid the problem that the lifting device 7 is in contact with the ground and affects the movement of the carrying device 1 . When it is necessary to extend the lifting device 7 to lift the pallet to be transferred, the lifting device 7 is returned to the ground.
此处需要补充说明的是,由于本公开中举升装置7包括第二行走机构,且第二行走机构为多个辅助轮702,当辅助轮702采用万向轮1026时,万向轮1026与地面相接触不会影响承载装置1的转弯及转向等运动过程。但当采用普通轮体时,辅助轮702与地面相接触便会影响承载装置1的转弯及转向等过程。而本公开采用上述设置油缸或气缸的方式将举升装置7抬离地面,使辅助轮702可以采用任意形式的轮体,从而仍能够在一定程度上降低成本和整体叉车的适配能力。What needs to be supplemented here is that since the lifting device 7 in the present disclosure includes a second traveling mechanism, and the second traveling mechanism is a plurality of auxiliary wheels 702, when the auxiliary wheels 702 adopt the universal wheels 1026, the universal wheels 1026 and The contact with the ground will not affect the turning and turning process of the bearing device 1 . However, when an ordinary wheel body is used, the contact between the auxiliary wheels 702 and the ground will affect the turning and steering processes of the carrying device 1 . However, the present disclosure uses the above-mentioned method of arranging oil cylinders or air cylinders to lift the lifting device 7 off the ground, so that the auxiliary wheels 702 can adopt any form of wheel body, thereby still reducing the cost and the adaptability of the overall forklift to a certain extent.

It is configured that when the lifting device 7 extends out of the carrying device 1, the guide assembly 6 contacts the lifting assembly 5 and is lifted off the ground under the guidance of the inclined side of the guide assembly 6.
本公开中的抬升组件5可以包括容纳箱501、弹性件、连接件以及导向轮503,容纳箱501设置在承载外壳101的侧壁上,弹性件和连接件均设置在容纳箱501内,且弹性件沿 竖直方向延伸,弹性件的一端与容纳箱501的底部相抵接,另一端与连接件相连接,容纳箱501上开设有沿竖直方向延伸的导向孔502,导向轮503的轮轴伸入导向孔502与连接件相连接,从而通过弹性件能够使导向轮503在竖直方向上往复运动。The lifting assembly 5 in the present disclosure may include an accommodating box 501, an elastic member, a connecting member and a guide wheel 503. The accommodating box 501 is provided on the side wall of the load-bearing shell 101, the elastic member and the connecting member are both disposed in the accommodating box 501, and The elastic member extends in the vertical direction, one end of the elastic member is in contact with the bottom of the accommodation box 501, and the other end is connected to the connector. The accommodation box 501 is provided with a guide hole 502 extending in the vertical direction, and the axle of the guide wheel 503 is The extending guide hole 502 is connected to the connecting member, so that the guide wheel 503 can reciprocate in the vertical direction through the elastic member.
如图6所示,本公开中的导向组件6与导向轮503相接触的一侧为倾斜设置,形成倾斜部,且导向组件6的延伸方向为举升装置7伸出或收入承载装置1的运动方向。导向组件6设置在举升装置7的伸出端的侧壁上,当举升装置7的伸出端伸出承载装置1时,导向组件6与导向轮503相接触并在倾斜部的导向下逐渐抬起,当举升装置7收入承载装置1时,举升装置7的伸出端在导向组件6的导向下逐渐接近地面,并与地面相接触。As shown in FIG. 6 , the side of the guide assembly 6 in contact with the guide wheel 503 in this disclosure is inclined to form an inclined portion, and the extension direction of the guide assembly 6 is when the lifting device 7 extends or retracts into the carrying device 1 direction of movement. The guide assembly 6 is arranged on the side wall of the extended end of the lifting device 7. When the extended end of the lifting device 7 extends out of the carrying device 1, the guide assembly 6 contacts the guide wheel 503 and gradually moves under the guidance of the inclined portion. Lift, when the lifting device 7 is retracted into the carrying device 1, the extended end of the lifting device 7 gradually approaches the ground under the guidance of the guide assembly 6 and contacts the ground.
此处需要补充说明的是,如图6所示,本公开中导向组件6始终与导向轮503相接触,且容纳箱501内的弹性件为弹簧,弹簧的弹力大于空载状态下的举升装置7的重量。因此,当举升装置7伸出时,导向轮503能够保持在导向孔502的顶端,从而实现举升装置7的伸出端脱离地面。当举升装置7承载托盘及货物举升时,托盘及货物的重量必然大于弹簧的弹力,从而使导向轮503下移至导向孔502的底部,实现举升装置7的第二行走机构与地面的接触。What needs to be supplemented here is that, as shown in Figure 6, in this disclosure, the guide assembly 6 is always in contact with the guide wheel 503, and the elastic member in the accommodation box 501 is a spring, and the elastic force of the spring is greater than the lifting force in the no-load state. Weight of device 7. Therefore, when the lifting device 7 is extended, the guide wheel 503 can be kept at the top of the guide hole 502, so that the extended end of the lifting device 7 is lifted off the ground. When the lifting device 7 lifts the pallet and the goods, the weight of the pallet and the goods must be greater than the elastic force of the spring, so that the guide wheel 503 moves down to the bottom of the guide hole 502 to realize the second traveling mechanism of the lifting device 7 and the ground. s contact.
此处需要进一步补充说明的是,上述容纳箱501内设置的弹性件也可采用油缸或气缸等结构替代,动作过程相同,在此不再赘述。What needs to be further explained here is that the elastic member provided in the above-mentioned holding box 501 can also be replaced by a structure such as an oil cylinder or an air cylinder. The action process is the same and will not be described again here.
可选地,如图7所示,本公开中举升装置7可以包括安装架701、第二行走机构、举升机构703以及承载平台704;安装架701沿承载装置1的长度方向延伸,第二行走机构与安装架701相连接,举升机构703能够沿竖直方向伸缩,且举升机构703的一端与安装架701相连接,另一端与承载平台704相连接;举升机构703在收缩状态下,承载平台704的承载面的水平高度不超过承载外壳101的承载面的水平高度。Optionally, as shown in Figure 7, the lifting device 7 in this disclosure may include a mounting frame 701, a second traveling mechanism, a lifting mechanism 703 and a bearing platform 704; the mounting frame 701 extends along the length direction of the bearing device 1, and The two traveling mechanisms are connected to the mounting frame 701. The lifting mechanism 703 can telescope in the vertical direction, and one end of the lifting mechanism 703 is connected to the mounting frame 701, and the other end is connected to the bearing platform 704; the lifting mechanism 703 is retracting. In this state, the horizontal height of the bearing surface of the bearing platform 704 does not exceed the horizontal height of the bearing surface of the bearing shell 101 .
作业时,滑块301在丝杆上运动实现安装架701的伸出和收入,从而实现举升机构703的伸出或收入。当滑块301驱动安装架701伸出承载外壳101并运动至托盘的对应位置时,举升机构703伸展起升,从而能够使承载平台704抬升,进而能够通过承载平台704稳定的将待转运托盘及托盘上承载的货物抬起。During operation, the slider 301 moves on the screw rod to extend or retract the mounting bracket 701, thereby extending or retracting the lifting mechanism 703. When the slider 301 drives the mounting bracket 701 to extend out of the load-bearing shell 101 and move to the corresponding position of the pallet, the lifting mechanism 703 extends and lifts, thereby lifting the load-bearing platform 704, and then stably transporting the pallet to be transferred through the load-bearing platform 704. and lift the goods carried on the pallet.
待起升高度高于承载外壳101的水平高度时,滑块301驱动安装架701收入承载外壳101并回复至初始位置。之后举升机构703收缩下落,从而能够将托盘及货物下落至承载外壳101上,完成对托盘及货物的拿取。When the lifting height is higher than the horizontal height of the bearing shell 101, the slider 301 drives the mounting bracket 701 to retract the bearing shell 101 and return to the initial position. Afterwards, the lifting mechanism 703 contracts and falls, so that the pallet and the goods can be dropped onto the load-bearing shell 101 to complete the picking up of the pallet and the goods.
此处需要补充说明的是,由于本公开中的举升机构703在收缩状态下,承载平台704的承载面的水平高度不超过承载外壳101的承载面的水平高度,因此,当举升机构703收缩至极限位置后,承载平台704上的托盘和货物由承载外壳101进行承载。由于上述导向组件6始终与导向轮503相接触,因此,当承载平台704将承载的托盘和货物放置在承载 外壳101上后,举升装置7的整体重量小于弹簧的弹力,从而弹簧通过导向轮503再次将举升装置7抬起并脱离地面,进而能够在一定程度上使承载装置1的移动更加顺利。It should be supplemented here that since the lifting mechanism 703 in the present disclosure is in the retracted state, the horizontal height of the bearing surface of the bearing platform 704 does not exceed the horizontal height of the bearing surface of the bearing shell 101. Therefore, when the lifting mechanism 703 After shrinking to the extreme position, the pallets and goods on the loading platform 704 are carried by the loading shell 101 . Since the above-mentioned guide assembly 6 is always in contact with the guide wheel 503, when the load-bearing platform 704 places the loaded pallets and goods on the load-bearing shell 101, the overall weight of the lifting device 7 is less than the elastic force of the spring, so the spring passes through the guide wheel 503. 503 lifts the lifting device 7 again and off the ground, which can make the movement of the carrying device 1 smoother to a certain extent.
