The study is based on an analysis of collected data and on model calculations of the economic value. Analyses of data, calculations of economic value and profitability of the proposed business model give positive results, which fully confirm the thesis that the integration of renewable energy sources and new modern technologies in the logistic processes can improve energy management.展开更多

We select the appropriate motor according to parameters of original manual forklift, which was analyzed by SolidWorks. We make the detailed design of the speed reducer according to the selected motor＇s rated speed and other parameters, and design the reduction speed ratio, reduction speed form, size of gear drive, meshing parameters, force analysis of gear and strength check. In this paper, we electrify the traditional manual forklift eventually.展开更多

It is important to analyze their failures and to assess their reliability. In this paper, the failure distribution, failure modes and laws of failure distribution of railway forklifts are analyzed based on the field data. The comprehensive assessment of the reliability level of the railway forklifts is also presented according to the reliability index system of forklifts.展开更多
