Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Gegengewichtsgabelstapler mit einem in einem Aggregateraum angeordneten, als Dieselmotor ausgebildeten Verbrennungsmotor und einem Dieseltank.The invention relates to a counterbalance forklift with a arranged in an engine room, designed as a diesel engine internal combustion engine and a diesel tank.

Die Erfindung betrifft weiterhin eine Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte umfassend zumindest einen Gegengewichtsgabelstapler mit einem als Dieselmotor ausgebildeten Verbrennungsmotor und zumindest einen Gegengewichtsgabelstapler mit einem als Treibgasmotor ausgebildeten Verbrennungsmotor, wobei die Gegengewichtsgabelstapler jeweils ein Gegengewicht aufweisen.The invention further relates to a counterbalanced forklift fleet comprising at least one counterbalance forklift truck with an internal combustion engine designed as a diesel engine and at least one counterbalance forklift truck with an internal combustion engine designed as a propellant gas engine, the counterbalance forklifts each having a counterweight.

Bei verbrennungsmotorisch angetriebenen Gegengewichtsgabelstaplern sind Ausführungen mit einem als Dieselmotor ausgebildeten Verbrennungsmotor, sogenannte Dieselstapler, und mit einem als Treibgasmotor ausgebildeten Verbrennungsmotor, sogenannte Triebgasstapler, bekannt.In internal combustion engine driven counterbalance forklifts are versions with a trained as a diesel engine engine, so-called diesel forklift, and with a designed as a propellant engine internal combustion engine, known as traction gas forklift known.

Diese zwei Ausführungen von verbrennungsmotorisch betriebenen Gegengewichtsgabelstaplern befinden sich im Produktprogramm aller großen Hersteller von Gabelstaplern. Die verschiedenen, mit Dieselmotor oder Treibgasmotor ausgeführten Gegengewichtsgabelstapler eines Herstellers sind in dieser Patentanmeldung unter dem Begriff "Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte" zusammengefasst.These two versions of internal combustion counterbalanced forklifts are in the product range of all major forklift manufacturers. The various, with diesel engine or propellant gas running counterbalanced forklifts of a manufacturer are summarized in this patent application under the term "counterbalance forklift fleet".

Die Dieselstapler und Treibgasstapler einer Fahrzugbaureihe der Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte unterscheiden sich hierbei in der Regel lediglich hinsichtlich des verwendeten Verbrennungsmotors und der aus der unterschiedlichen Treibstoffart bedingten Nebenaggregate, beispielsweise der Treibstoffzuführung und der Abgasabführung.The diesel forklifts and LPG forklifts of a range of counterbalance forklift trucks generally differ only in terms of the internal combustion engine used and the ancillary components from the different types of fuel, for example the fuel supply and the exhaust gas removal.

Bei Dieselstaplern mit einem als Dieselmotor ausgebildeten Verbrennungsmotor ist hierbei der Dieseltank innerhalb des Aggregateraums oder innerhalb des Gegengewichts angeordnet. Da jedoch der Bauraum innerhalb des Aggregateraums sowie innerhalb des Gegengewichts beschränkt ist und innerhalb des Aggregateraums neben dem Verbrennungsmotor auch weitere Komponenten, beispielsweise die Hydraulikanlage, eine Antriebsachse, die Elektrik bzw. Elektronik angeordnet werden muss, führt dieser eingeschränkte Bauraum innerhalb des Aggregateraums dazu, dass der Dieseltank nur wenig Bauraum beanspruchen darf und somit eine kleine Tankfüllmenge aufweist. Aufgrund dieser geringen Füllmenge kann es im Dauerbetrieb des Gegengewichtsgabelstaplers eines Dieselstaplers vorkommen, dass der Dieseltank mehrmals täglich aufgefüllt werden muss. Das Nachtanken des Dieselstaplers kann hierbei mit längeren Fahrstrecken zu einer innerbetrieblichen Tankstelle verbunden sein. Zudem ergibt sich durch die Anordnung des Dieseltanks im Aggregateraum oder innerhalb des Gegengewichts eine aufwändige Befülleinrichtung, beispielsweise ein getrennt vom Dieseltank angeordneter Befüllstutzen, der mittels Zuführschläuchen mit dem Dieseltank verbunden ist. In der Regel weist die Befülleinrichtung einen geringen Querschnitt auf, so dass ebenfalls der Befüllvorgang des Dieseltanks einen hohen Zeitaufwand erfordert.In diesel forklifts with an engine designed as a diesel engine here is the diesel tank within the aggregate space or within the Counterweight arranged. However, since the space is limited within the aggregate space and within the counterweight and within the unit room next to the engine also other components, such as the hydraulic system, a drive axle, the electrical system or electronics must be arranged, this limited space within the aggregate space causes the diesel tank can only take up little space and thus has a small tank filling quantity. Due to this small capacity, it may happen in continuous operation of the counterbalance forklift of a diesel forklift that the diesel tank must be refilled several times a day. The refueling of the diesel forklift truck can in this case be associated with longer journeys to an in-house filling station. In addition, the arrangement of the diesel tank in the aggregate space or within the counterweight results in a complex filling device, for example a filling nozzle arranged separately from the diesel tank, which is connected to the diesel tank by means of supply hoses. As a rule, the filling device has a small cross-section, so that likewise the filling process of the diesel tank requires a great deal of time.

Aus der DE 100 13 079 A1 ist ein Gegengewichtsgabelstapler mit einem als Dieselmotor ausgebildeten Verbrennungsmotor bekannt, bei dem der Dieseltank als tragendes Bauteil in den Fahrzeugrahmen integriert und von einem im Fahrzeugrahmen ausgebildeten Hohlraum gebildet ist. Ein derartiger Dieseltank ist jedoch aufwändig in der Herstellung. Zudem ist bei einer Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte, die neben Dieselstaplern zudem Gegengewichtsgabelstapler mit einem als Treibgasmotor ausgebildeten Verbrennungsmotor aufweisen, der Hohlraum nicht als Treibgasbehälter nutzbar, so dass der Treibgasstapler bei der Verwendung eines identischen Rahmens entweder einen hohen Herstellaufwand aufweist oder für den Treibgasstapler ein anderer Rahmen als für den Dieselstapler einer Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte herzustellen ist. Insgesamt ergibt sich somit für eine Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte, die sowohl Dieselstapler als auch Treibgasstapler umfasst, ein hoher Bauaufwand und Herstellaufwand.From the DE 100 13 079 A1 is a counterbalance forklift with a trained as a diesel engine internal combustion engine, in which the diesel tank is integrated as a structural component in the vehicle frame and formed by a formed in the vehicle frame cavity. However, such a diesel tank is expensive to manufacture. In addition, in a counterbalance forklift fleet, in addition to diesel forklift also counterbalance forklift with an engine designed as a propellant engine, the cavity is not usable as LPG tank, so that the LPG forklift using either an identical frame either has a high manufacturing effort or for the LPG forklift frame different than for to manufacture the diesel forklift of a counterbalanced forklift fleet. Overall, thus results for a counterbalance forklift fleet, which includes both diesel forklift and LPG forklift, a high construction cost and manufacturing costs.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Gegengewichtsgabelstapler mit einem als Dieselmotor ausgebildeten Verbrennungsmotor und eine Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte zur Verfügung zu stellen, die hinsichtlich der Anordnung des Dieseltanks verbessert sind und einen geringen Herstellaufwand aufweisen.The present invention has for its object to provide a counterbalance forklift with a trained as a diesel engine engine and a counterbalance forklift fleet available provide that are improved in the arrangement of the diesel tank and have a low manufacturing cost.

Diese Aufgabe wird hinsichtlich eines Gabelstaplers mit einem als Dieselmotor ausgebildeten Verbrennungsmotor erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass der Dieseltank an einer Außenseite des Gegengewichts angeordnet ist.This object is achieved in terms of a forklift with a trained as a diesel engine internal combustion engine according to the invention that the diesel tank is disposed on an outer side of the counterweight.

Durch diese Anordnung des Dieseltanks bei einem als Dieselstapler ausgebildeten Gegengewichtsgabelstapler ergeben sich eine Reihe von Vorteilen. Durch den Entfall des Dieseltanks innerhalb des Aggreteraums bzw. innerhalb des Gegengewichts steht innerhalb des Aggregateraums bzw. innerhalb des Gegengewichts mehr Bauraum für weitere Komponenten oder Aggregate zur Verfügung, beispielsweise eine als Dieselpartikelfilter ausgebildete Abgasreinigung. Zudem kann durch den Entfall des Dieseltanks innerhalb des Aggregateraums bzw. innerhalb des Gegengewichts bei Gegengewichtsgabelstaplern mit kleinen Tragfähigkeiten der Aggregateraum verkleinert werden und somit ein kompakter Dieselstapler erzielt werden. Durch die Anordnung des Dieseltanks an der Außenseite des Gegengewichts kann zudem auf einfache Weise ohne die Abmessungen des Gabelstaplers durch einen vergrößerten Aggregateraum zu vergrößern, die Füllmenge des Dieseltanks vergrößert werden, so dass längere Betriebszeiten mit einer Tankfüllung erzielbar sind und aufwändiges und zeitintensives Nachtanken vermieden werden kann. Darüber hinaus kann der an der Außenseite des Gegengewichts angeordnete Dieseltank mit einer einfach aufgebauten Befülleinrichtung, beispielsweise einem am Dieseltank angeordneten Befüllstutzen, versehen werden, die einerseits leicht zugänglich ist und andererseits mit einem großen Füllquerschnitt für ein leichtes und schnelles Betanken ausgeführt werden kann, so dass eine schnelle und direkte Betankung des Dieseltanks ohne aufwändige Zuführschläuche erzielbar ist. Insgesamt ergibt sich somit ein als Dieselstapler ausgebildeter Gegengewichtsgabelstapler, der mit einer verbesserten Anordnung des Dieseltanks versehen ist und einen geringen Bauaufwand und Herstellaufwand verursacht.This arrangement of the diesel tank in a designed as a diesel forklift counterbalance forklift, there are a number of advantages. The elimination of the diesel tank within the Aggreteraums or within the counterweight is within the aggregate space or within the counterweight more space for other components or aggregates available, for example, designed as a diesel particulate filter exhaust gas purification. In addition, can be reduced by the elimination of the diesel tank within the aggregate space or within the counterweight in counterbalanced forklifts with small load capacities of the unit space and thus a compact diesel forklift can be achieved. Due to the arrangement of the diesel tank on the outside of the counterweight can also be easily increased without the dimensions of the forklift by an enlarged unit space, the capacity of the diesel tank can be increased, so that longer operating times can be achieved with a tank filling and consuming and time-consuming refueling avoided can. Moreover, the diesel tank arranged on the outside of the counterweight can be provided with a simply constructed filling device, for example a filling nozzle arranged on the diesel tank, which on the one hand is easily accessible and on the other hand can be designed with a large filling cross section for easy and fast filling, so that a quick and direct refueling of the diesel tank can be achieved without complex feed hoses. Overall, this results in a designed as a diesel forklift counterbalance forklift, which is provided with an improved arrangement of the diesel tank and causes low construction costs and manufacturing costs.

Besondere Vorteile ergeben sich, wenn der Dieseltank gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltungsform der Erfindung an der Oberseite des Gegengewichts befestigt. Eine derartige Anordnung des Dieseltanks an der Oberseite des Gegengewichts benachbart zum Fahrerschutzdach ergibt eine geschützte Anordnung des Dieseltanks am lastfernen Bereich des Gegengewichtsgabelstaplers, wodurch eine Beschädigung des Dieseltanks durch vom Hubgerüst herunterfallenden Teilen wirksam vermieden werden kann. Zudem ist bei dieser Anordnung des Dieseltanks der Dieseltank durch das Gegengewicht wirksam vor Beschädigungen beim Anfahren geschützt.Particular advantages arise when the diesel tank attached according to a preferred embodiment of the invention at the top of the counterweight. Such an arrangement of the diesel tank at the top of the counterweight adjacent to the driver's shelter roof provides a protected arrangement of the diesel tank on remote area of the counterbalance forklift, whereby damage to the diesel tank can be effectively avoided by falling from the mast parts. In addition, in this arrangement of the diesel tank, the diesel tank is effectively protected by the counterweight from damage when starting.

Zweckmäßigerweise ist an dem Gegengewicht ein Befestigungsflansch zur Befestigung des Dieseltanks ausgebildet. Mit einem am Gegengewicht ausgebildeten Befestigungsflansch kann der Dieseltank auf einfache Weise am Gegengewicht direkt befestigt werden.Conveniently, a mounting flange for attachment of the diesel tank is formed on the counterweight. With a mounting flange formed on the counterweight, the diesel tank can be attached directly to the counterweight in a simple manner.

Ein geringer Bauaufwand ist hierbei erzielbar, wenn der Befestigungsflansch von mindestens einer Befestigungsbohrung gebildet ist. Befestigungsbohrungen können im Gegengewicht auf einfache Weise hergestellt werden.A low construction cost is achieved here, if the mounting flange is formed by at least one mounting hole. Mounting holes can be easily made in the counterweight.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltungsform der Erfindung ist an dem Befestigungsflansch eine Haltevorrichtung befestigt, an der der Dieseltank befestigbar ist. Mit einer derartigen Haltevorrichtung, beispielsweise einer plattenförmigen Flanschplatte, die am Befestigungsflansch des Gegengewichts befestigt ist und an der der Dieseltank befestigbar ist, kann auf einfache Weise eine flächige Auflage des Dieseltanks erzielt werden, so dass der Dieseltank vor Erschütterungen und Schwingungen und dadurch bedingter Beschädigungen wirksam geschützt werden kann. Weiterhin können hierbei zwischen dem Dieseltank und der Haltevorrichtung schwingungsdämpfende Gummielemente angeordnet werden, so dass der Schutz des Dieseltanks vor Beschädigungen durch Schwingungen oder Erschütterungen weiter verbessert werden kann.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, a holding device is attached to the mounting flange, on which the diesel tank can be fastened. With such a holding device, such as a plate-shaped flange plate, which is fastened to the mounting flange of the counterweight and to which the diesel tank can be fastened, a flat support of the diesel tank can be achieved in a simple manner, so that the diesel tank from shocks and vibrations and consequent damage effectively can be protected. Furthermore, in this case vibration-damping rubber elements can be arranged between the diesel tank and the holding device, so that the protection of the diesel tank from damage by vibrations or shocks can be further improved.

Zweckmäßigerweise ist der Dieseltank an der Haltevorrichtung lösbar befestigt ist. Mit Befestigungsschrauben, Spannbändern oder Spanngurten kann der Dieseltank auf einfache Weise an der Haltevorrichtung befestigt werden.Conveniently, the diesel tank is releasably secured to the holding device. With fastening screws, straps or straps, the diesel tank can be easily attached to the fixture.

Die oben genannte Aufgabe wird hinsichtlich einer Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte dadurch gelöst, dass das Gegengewicht jedes Gegengewichtsgabelstaplers mit einem Befestigungsflansch versehen ist, an dem ein Dieseltank eines Gegengewichtsgabelstapler mit einem als Dieselmotor ausgebildeten Verbrennungsmotor befestigt ist und ein Treibgasbehälter eines Gegengewichtsgabelstaplers mit einem als Treibgasmotor ausgebildeten Verbrennungsmotor befestigt ist. Hierdurch wird bei einer Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte ermöglicht, dass an dem Befestigungsflansch, an dem ein Treibgasbehälter eines als Treibgasstapler ausgebildeten Gegengewichtsgabelstaplers der Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte befestigt ist, bei einem als Dieselstapler ausgebildeten Gegengewichtsgabelstapler der Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte der Dieseltank befestigt werden kann. Hierdurch kann bei der Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte für einen Dieselstapler und einen Treibgasstapler ein identischer Rahmen und ein identisches Gegengewicht verwendet werden, wodurch sich ein geringer Bauaufwand und somit ein geringer Herstellaufwand für die Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte ergibt. Zudem wird erzielt, dass bei der Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte bei einer Fahrzeugbaureihe mit geringer Tragfähigkeit der Bauraum innerhalb des Aggregateraum sowohl bei Treibgasstaplern als auch bei Dieselstaplern optimal ausgenutzt werden kann, da bei Dieselstaplern der Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte kein Bauraum für einen Dieseltank innerhalb des Aggregateraums vorgehalten werden muss, der bei Treibgasstaplern der Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte ungenutzt bleibt, wodurch Dieselstapler und Treibgasstapler einer Gegengewichtsgabelstaplerflotte mit kompakten Abmessungen herstellbar sind.The above object is achieved in terms of a counterbalanced forklift fleet in that the counterweight of each counterbalance forklift truck is provided with a mounting flange to which a diesel tank of a counterbalance forklift with an engine designed as a diesel engine is mounted and a propellant container of a Counterweight forklift is mounted with a designed as a propellant engine engine. As a result, in a counterbalance forklift fleet, it is possible to attach the diesel fuel tank to the attachment flange on which a propellant gas container of a counterbalanced forklift truck constructed as a propellant gas stacker is mounted on a counterbalanced forklift truck designed as a diesel forklift. As a result, an identical frame and an identical counterweight can be used in the counterbalance forklift fleet for a diesel forklift and a LPG forklift, resulting in a low construction cost and thus a low production cost for the counterbalance forklift fleet. In addition, it is achieved that in the counterbalance forklift fleet in a vehicle series with low carrying capacity of the space within the engine compartment can be optimally utilized both for LPG trucks and diesel forklifts, as in diesel forklifts of the counterbalance forklift fleet no space for a diesel tank must be kept within the unit space, which at Unprepared forklift trucks of the counterbalance forklift fleet, whereby diesel stacker and LPG forklift of a counterbalanced forklift fleet can be produced with compact dimensions.

Sofern gemäß eine bevorzugten Ausgestaltungsform der Erfindung der Befestigungsflansch an der Oberseite des Gegengewichts angeordnet ist, wird eine geschützte Anordnung des Treibgasbehälters und des Dieselbehälters vor Beschädigungen gegen vom Hubgerüst herunterfallende Teile und gegen Anfahren ermöglicht.If, according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the fastening flange is arranged on the upper side of the counterweight, a protected arrangement of the propellant gas tank and of the diesel tank is made possible against damage falling from the mast and parts against starting.

Der Befestigungsflansch kann mit geringem Bauaufwand von mindestens einer Befestigungsbohrung gebildet werden.The mounting flange can be formed with low construction costs of at least one mounting hole.

Sofern an dem Befestigungsflansch eine Haltevorrichtung befestigbar ist, an der der Dieseltank oder der Treibgasbehälter befestigbar ist, ist ein geschützte Anordnung und Befestigung des Treibgasbehälters bzw. des Dieseltanks vor Erschütterungen und Schwingungen erzielbar.If a holding device can be fastened to the fastening flange, to which the diesel tank or the propellant gas container can be fastened, a protected arrangement and fastening of the propellant gas tank or of the diesel tank against shocks and vibrations can be achieved.

Der Dieseltank oder der Treibgasbehälter kann hierbei an der Haltevorrichtung lösbar befestigt sein, insbesondere mittels Spanngurten oder Spannbändern. Hierdurch sind einerseits eine einfache Befestigung des Dieselbehälters an der Haltevorrichtung und andererseits ein einfacher Wechsel des Treibgasbehälters erzielbar.The diesel tank or the propellant gas container can in this case be detachably fastened to the holding device, in particular by means of tension straps or tension straps. As a result, on the one hand a simple attachment of the diesel tank to the holding device and on the other hand a simple change of the propellant container can be achieved.
