Product Introduction
"The 'Di Niu' is a very common and widely used term in the industry. Its scientific name is manual hydraulic pallet truck, though it's sometimes directly referred to as a 'manual forklift' or simply a 'Di Niu vehicle.'"
Simply put, the "Di Niu" is a lightweight and compact handling device that requires no external power source and can be operated entirely by manual labor, making it ideal for short-distance transportation and stacking of goods. It is one of the commonly used handling tools in warehouses, workshops, supermarkets, freight stations, and other similar environments.
Main components
- Fork: The front section inserted beneath the pallet, typically made of steel and available in various sizes and thicknesses to accommodate different types of pallets.
- Handle: The part used by operators to push, pull, steer, and lift/lower the load.
- Hydraulic Lifting System: The Core Component. By pressing the handle up and down, the hydraulic pump is activated, forcing hydraulic oil into the cylinder. This action lifts the internal lifting frame, thereby raising the forks and the load upward.
- Steering wheels: Located at the handle end, typically two in number, they can rotate 360 degrees and enable flexible steering.
- Load-bearing wheels: Located at the front end of the forks, typically two in number, they are responsible for bearing the primary load and facilitating rolling motion.
- Control Lever/Safety Handle
Lift/Descent Control Lever: Controls the on/off of the hydraulic system, enabling cargo lifting and controlled slow descent.
Brake lever: Available on select models, it locks the wheels when used on slopes or to secure the vehicle in a fixed position.
How it works
The operator inserts the forks into the bottom of the pallet, then repeatedly presses the handle up and down—similar to operating a well pump. This action uses the hydraulic system to lift the load off the ground (typically 5–15 centimeters above the surface), making it easy to pull or push the goods to the desired location. Finally, the operator activates the lowering control lever to gently lower the load back onto the ground.
