The steering system of the electric pallet truck is divided into two categories: mechanical steering system and power steering system according to the source of steering power.
The mechanical steering system of an electric pallet truck, also known as the human steering system, refers to the power provided by the driver to turn, and is generally used on a pallet truck with a small load. The power steering system refers to the steering operation by the driver, and the steering power is provided by the prime mover to achieve the steering effect. The power steering system can be subdivided into power steering and full hydraulic steering.
The steering system of electric pallet truck can also be divided into single wheel deflection, double wheel deflection, all wheel deflection and other types according to the number of steering wheels. The two-wheel deflection steering system has a large load-carrying capacity and stable steering. The two-wheel deflection steering system is the most used in the common specifications of the truck.
The truck manufacturer tells everyone: the components of the two-wheel deflection mechanical steering system of the electric truck are divided into two parts: one is the steering assembly, which mainly includes the control panel, steering rod and steering gear. The driver operates the steering through the control panel, and the steering is turned by the steering gear after being transmitted by the steering rod. The steering gear is a customized gear reduction device. The steering gear amplifies the operating force applied by the driver to improve the steering effect, and then transmits it to the steering wheel; the control panel is the control member, and the steering rod is the transmission shaft from the control panel to the steering gear. , the three work together, called the steering system. Proper operation and regular maintenance of the truck will prolong the service life of the truck.
The truck manufacturer tells everyone that electric trucks with large loads basically use power steering systems. If you need to customize or purchase a truck, please contact us. We have excellent products and professional technical support.
