1.What is a stair climbing dolly?

The stair climbing dolly is a new type of stair loading tool. It makes the use of its own operating system to achieve the purpose of moving goods up and down the stairs. The stair climbing dolly is powered by a lithium battery and its electronic controller is equipped with the function of monitoring the machine during operation to ensure superior performance. Its power source is a rechargeable lithium battery, which can be taken out and replaced. The charging progress is displayed on the control panel. The stair climbing dolly is foldable and detachable as a whole. Removing the lever when packing reduces the overall size and makes it easier to transport.

This kind of electric stair climbing dolly is widely used in logistics, water delivery, moving, furniture, home appliances and other industries, as well as factories, offices, residential buildings, outdoors and other places.

2.What are the types of stair climbing

2.1Movable wheeled stair climbing dolly

This type of stair climbing dolly applies star wheel structure instead of the original wheels. The star wheel rotation can push the dolly to complete the movement of going up and down the stairs. This type of dolly is mostly used manually, so the load capacity is relatively small, and it can only carry small volume or light weight goods.

2.2Crawler dolly

Crawler dolly has two additional climbing tracks. These tracks are long and can cover 2 to 3 steps at the same time. The two tracks are rolled to drive the whole dolly up and down the stairs. The crawler dolly is driven by lithium batteries and has a wide range of applications with a large load capacity and can carry loads of up to 400 kg. The most common heavy-duty stair climbing dolly is the crawler type, as this tool enables semi-automatic stair climbing and stair descent, saving labor.

Technical features: safety, high efficiency, labor saving, high load capacity, and wide application.

2.3Supported stair climbing dolly

The supported stair climbing dolly is equipped with two supporting legs. The two supporting legs are supported downward on the steps, which can help lift the whole dolly and goods to a higher step to achieve the action and purpose of going up and down the stairs. Most of this type of stair climbers are battery driven and suitable for loads up to 250 kg.

Technical features: simple structure, small size, easy to carry, but there may be some damage to the stairs.

 

3.What are the advantages of our stair climbing

3.1 Advantages of electric stair climbing dollys

a.High degree of automation

The control panel of electric stair climbing dolly is simple and easy to control. One key control can go up and down the stairs. Our dolly is equipped with safety brake system.

b.Safety

The electric stair climbing system is safe and reliable. Both the load-bearing setting and speed setting of the stair dolly are in line with human safety standards. This greatly improves safety.

c.Flexibility

Electric stair climbing dolly can be folded and easy to carry. The overall structure is made of aluminum alloy, the body is light and easy to carry.

d.Cost control

One person can operate the electric floor climbing dolly instead of 3-5 people to carry. That is to say, the work task that previously required five people can be completed by one person with the help of electric dolly.

3.2 Material and structure

Material: Our main materials include carbon steel and aluminum alloy. Aluminum alloy is more lightweight, high strength and durable, easy to carry.

Battery: It is recommended to apply lithium battery for the stair climbing dolly. Lithium battery has high cost but relatively light weight. Lead-acid batteries are about 4-5 times heavier than lithium batteries.

Safety: The use of high-strength aluminum alloy can improve the safety during the operation process, to protect the safety of the operator and the safety of the goods.

Tires: Solid tires are wear-resistant and anti-puncture, more suitable for use in harsh environments. Pneumatic tires have better shock resistance and can provide better cushioning in the process of handling heavy goods such as home appliances and fragile goods, reducing the risk of cargo breakage.

 

4. What scenes can the stair climbing dolly be applied to?

The electric stair climbing dolly is suitable for all logistics companies, storage warehouses, moving companies, bars, decoration companies, construction sites, liquor manufacturers, office buildings, hotels, hospitals, shopping malls, supermarkets, etc.

The following items are recommended to be carried:

a.home appliances and furniture: air conditioners, washing machines, refrigerators and freezers, TVs, sofas, etc.

b.building decoration materials: cement, tiles, marble and other heavy building materials.

c.Others: cases of liquor, cases of goods, liquefied gas tanks, medical equipment, etc.

Suitable for construction material handling

 

4.1 Load capacity of the stair climbing dolly

The load capacity of an electric stair climbing dolly is the maximum weight that a stair climber can safely work with.

Depending on the application scenario and the goods, the floor climbing dolly also has different load-bearing capacity. Light duty dollys have a load capacity of less than 100KG. Medium duty dollys have a load capacity of 200KG or less. Heavy-duty dollys have a load capacity of 400KG.

The same load specification is suitable for different goods and different scenarios to use. The light type dolly is more suitable for use in office buildings, apartments and residential buildings. Medium-sized floor climbing dollys have many styles and are widely used. Most industries have a need for them, from delivery to construction to retail. Heavy duty stair climbing dollys are more used for industrial handling, manufacturing, chemical, logistics companies, etc.

In actual use, if the weight of the goods exceeds the load limit of the dolly, it will be overloaded for the motor and significantly shorten the service life of the machine. So it is recommended not to exceed the safe load in use.

 

5. How to use the stair climbing dolly correctly?

5.1 Precautions

a. Before using the electric stair climbing dolly, check whether each part of it can operate normally, and also ensure that there is no debris in the operation site to hinder the use.

b. Do not overload the operation. The electric dolly will affect the normal use and shorten the service life of the dolly if the load exceeds the limit.

c. When the electric stair climbing dolly is working, do not carry out other work on both sides of the machine to avoid accidents.

d. If the machine breaks down during transportation, stop the transportation immediately and continue to move the goods after troubleshooting.

e.After using the electric stair climbing dolly, disconnect the power supply, clean up in time to ensure that there is no problem before really ending the operation.

f. There are precise parts inside the stair climbing dolly, do not let the stair climbing dolly get wet or contact with corrosive objects.

6. How to transport the stair climbing

For 1 or 2 pcs, we recommend to deliver by express (via DHL, Fedex, UPS etc.), which needs 7-10 working days.

For bigger quantity we recommend to deliver by sea, which needs 30-45 working days.
