What is the structure of the hydraulic system of the electric pallet truck?
The hydraulic system is a very important part of the electric pallet truck. Each electric pallet truck is composed of power device, working device and other parts. The power device transmits power to the working device by means of the intermediate device to make the working light work. This intermediate device is called transmission device for short. Hydraulic system is one of the transmission devices, which is applied to all kinds of electric forklifts. Next, the pallet truck manufacturer will introduce the composition of the hydraulic system.

The hydraulic system of the electric pallet truck is started by the oil pump motor during steering and operation, which drives the gear oil pump to rotate. The oil is supplied to the full hydraulic steering gear through the monostable diverter valve. The steering gear is operated to supply oil to the steering cylinder to make the vehicle turn. The excess oil is supplied to the multi-way diverter valve to complete lifting, tilting and other work. The hydraulic system of electric pallet truck is mainly composed of the following five parts. The first part is the power component: hydraulic oil pump. It is driven by the motor to convert mechanical energy into liquid pressure energy and provide pressure oil with certain pressure and flow to the system. The second part is the control element: hydraulic control valve. It includes overflow valve, monostable diverter valve, multiple directional valve, one-way throttle valve, one-way valve, full hydraulic steering gear, etc. The pallet truck manufacturer told you that their function is to control the flow direction, pressure and flow of hydraulic oil to meet the working requirements of the hydraulic system.
The third part of the hydraulic system on the electric pallet truck is the actuating element, which includes various hydraulic cylinders, such as lifting cylinder, tilt cylinder, translation cylinder and steering cylinder. Their function is to transform the pressure energy of the liquid into mechanical energy and make the load move. The fourth part is auxiliary components, including oil tank, oil pipe, pipe joint, oil filter, etc. Their functions are to store, transport and filter hydraulic oil, as well as heat preservation, cooling and sediment impurities. The pallet truck manufacturer told you that the fifth part is the transmission medium: hydraulic oil. Its function is to transmit energy, and has the function of lubrication and cooling.

This is the composition of the hydraulic system of the electric pallet truck. Understanding this knowledge can not only broaden our horizons, but also be useful in the repair and maintenance of electric pallet trucks. The pallet truck manufacturer recommends that forklift operators study hard to improve their business level.
