Simulation Analysis of Hydraulic Lifting Mechanism of a Forklift

Lifting action of forklift is the most common working condition. In this paper, the structure of the hydraulic lifting system of forklift truck is analyzed in detail and the mathematical model is established. On this basis, the MATLAB simulation model of forklift lifting system is established. The simulation results show that the energy consumption(149706J) and efficiency (49.05%) under the rated load and rated lift height. Through the analysis and research of the energy consumption and efficiency of forklift truck lifting system, it lays a theoretical foundation for the future research of forklift truck energy saving.
