Abstract

Scissor lifts are widely used in industry. The selection of a configuration of lift table system plays an important role since this depends on the working requirements of the systems and also the type of lift object. In this paper, based on the parametric dimension technique, the mathematical model of the configuration and the load calculation for the double-stage scissor lifts, which depends on the design parameters, were investigated in order to enhance the operation of scissor lift systems (e.g., lifting height, loading, and stability). A 2D-model of the system was constructed and simulated in the Working Model software to verify the accuracy of the proposed method. The results obtained from the simulation indicate that by adjusting the mounting positions of cylinders, the elevation of the platform and reactions on joints of the components can be calculated, which assists in improving the performance of the system. Furthermore, the results also prove the practical significance in the calculating process and dimensional design of scissor lifts, especially for double-stage structures.
