Forklift Pinions

Pinion for Forklift - The main axis, referred to as the king pin, is found in the steering machine of a lift truck. The first design was a steel pin which the movable steerable wheel was mounted to the suspension. As it could freely revolve on a single axis, it restricted the degrees of freedom of movement of the rest of the front suspension. In the nineteen fifties, when its bearings were substituted by ball joints, more detailed suspension designs became available to designers. King pin suspensions are nevertheless utilized on several heavy trucks in view of the fact that they could lift much heavier weights.

New designs no longer limit this device to moving similar to a pin and today, the term may not be utilized for an actual pin but for the axis around which the steered wheels turn.

The KPI or also known as kingpin inclination can also be called the SAI or steering axis inclination. These terms describe the kingpin when it is positioned at an angle relative to the true vertical line as viewed from the front or back of the lift truck. This has a major effect on the steering, making it tend to return to the straight ahead or center position. The centre location is where the wheel is at its peak point relative to the suspended body of the lift truck. The motor vehicles weight tends to turn the king pin to this position.

The kingpin inclination also sets the scrub radius of the steered wheel, which is the offset between projected axis of the tire's communication point with the road surface and the steering down through the king pin. If these items coincide, the scrub radius is defined as zero. Although a zero scrub radius is possible without an inclined king pin, it requires a deeply dished wheel in order to maintain that the king pin is at the centerline of the wheel. It is a lot more sensible to slant the king pin and utilize a less dished wheel. This likewise supplies the self-centering effect.
