[0023] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention.

[0024] The terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this invention, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more.

[0025] In the description of this invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

The adjustable receiving device 1 receives material from the lifting platform 5 and also has an adjustment function, allowing adjustment of the position of the pressing arm according to the height of the vertical coil. The adjustable receiving device 1 is installed on the top of the lifting mechanism 4, with one end fixed and the other end sliding, to accommodate the horizontal extension and retraction of the scissor brace of the lifting mechanism 4 during the lifting process. The head of the horizontal-to-vertical conversion cylinder 2 is connected to the adjustable receiving device 1, and the tail is connected to the mobile transport vehicle; the extension and retraction of the cylinder controls the lifting and retraction of the adjustable receiving device. The lifting power cylinder 3 provides lifting power to the lifting mechanism 4.

[0028] Example 2

[0029] Based on the above embodiment, a high / low position detection device 6 is provided on one side of the lifting mechanism. This device controls the high and low positions of the lifting mechanism 4 through detection elements, ensuring accurate material receiving and safe unloading. The high / low position detection device can be implemented using limit switches or photoelectric switches; that is, a low-position limit switch or photoelectric switch is set, and a high-position limit switch or photoelectric switch is also set. When the limit switch or photoelectric switch detects the lifting mechanism, it is considered that the lifting mechanism has reached the low or high position.
