[0019] Example 1, asFigures 1 to 5 As shown, the reciprocating lifting machine described in the present application is applied to the layer changing operation of the material box in the light conveying line. The principle of the device operation is that the control system makes a judgment when the material box passes. If the buffer area of one layer of the conveying line is not full, the material box directly enters the buffer area of one layer. If the buffer area of one layer is full, the reciprocating lifting machine described in the present application lifts and transfers the material box to the buffer area of two layers. Subsequently, all mechanisms of the reciprocating lifting machine return to the original position to wait for the execution of the next action.

[0020] The reciprocating lifting machine comprises a main frame 1.1 as a device base. A reciprocating lifting support 1.2 is slidably connected to one side of the main frame 1.1. A jacking cylinder assembly 1.3, a gas source control system 1.8 for controlling the telescopic stroke of the cylinder, and a movable pulley chain assembly 1.6 are arranged on the other side of the main frame 1.1. The jacking cylinder assembly 1.3 is drivenly connected to the reciprocating lifting support 1.2 through the movable pulley chain assembly 1.6 to drive the reciprocating lifting support 1.2 to vertically reciprocate. A roller line 1.4 for horizontally conveying the material box is installed on the reciprocating lifting support 1.2.

[0021] The main body structure of the reciprocating lifting support 1.2 is composed of a roller line support frame and a guide wheel, which is the main moving component of the reciprocating lifting mechanism. The reciprocating lifting support 1.2 cooperates with the jacking cylinder assembly and the movable pulley assembly to complete the lifting action of the material box.

[0022] The jacking cylinder assembly 1.3 is vertically installed at the bottom of the main frame 1.1. The output shaft end of the jacking cylinder assembly 1.3 is connected to the movable pulley assembly of the movable pulley chain assembly 1.6 to drive the movable pulley assembly to vertically ascend and descend. In turn, the chain drives the reciprocating lifting support 1.2 to ascend and descend.

[0023] The movable pulley chain assembly 1.6 comprises a fixed pulley assembly installed on the main frame 1.1, a movable pulley assembly connected to the output shaft end of the jacking cylinder assembly 1.3, and a chain assembly closed looped between the fixed pulley assembly and the movable pulley assembly. The chain assembly is fixedly connected to the reciprocating lifting support 1.2.

[0024] In order to improve the safety performance, two pairs of vertically symmetrical limiting blocks 1.9 are arranged on the lifting track of the reciprocating lifting support 1.2 and the inside of the main frame 1.1. The limiting blocks 1.9 are used to limit the reciprocating lifting support 1.2 at the two ends of the maximum stroke, thereby preventing the overstroke and the resulting damage to the gas pipe and other safety accidents.

[0025] In order to cooperate with the design and use of the above-mentioned mechanical limiting mechanism, at least one set of photoelectric detection assembly 1.10 is arranged on the side of the main frame 1.1. The photoelectric detection assembly 1.10 is arranged in pairs according to the different heights and the number of buffer areas of the light conveying line body, and is used to detect and assist in positioning during the lifting process of the reciprocating lifting support 1.2.

[0026] Further, a protective net 1.7 can be arranged outside the main frame 1.1 on the side of the jacking cylinder assembly 1.3, the air source control system 1.8 and the dynamic pulley chain assembly 1.6 for protection of the internal power transmission assembly.

[0027] The reciprocating lifting support 1.2 is an L-shaped structure with a vertical part 1.2.1 and a horizontal part 1.2.2 welded together, and a set of guide wheels 1.2.3 are arranged at the four corners of the vertical part 1.2.1 through bearing shafts, the four sets of guide wheels 1.2.3 are divided into two groups on the vertical sides and are slidingly nested in the vertical slides inside the main frame 1.1, and the vertical part 1.2.1 is fixedly connected to the chain assembly in the dynamic pulley chain assembly 1.6; the horizontal part 1.2.2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the roller line 1.4, and a set of rubber buffer pads 1.2.4 are arranged at the four corners of the horizontal part 1.2.2.

[0028] Under the drive of the jacking cylinder assembly 1.3, the cylinder rod extends and drives the dynamic pulley assembly to move upward, the chain assembly transmits an upward force to the reciprocating lifting support 1.2, the guide wheels 1.2.3 are constrained by the side slides of the main frame 1.1, and the reciprocating lifting support 1.2 can only drive the roller line 1.4 to move in the vertical direction, and the speed of upward movement is twice the extension speed of the cylinder rod.

[0029] In order to improve the conveying efficiency of the material box and the positioning accuracy during conveying, a set of blocking mechanisms 1.5 are arranged inside the roller line 1.4, which include two sets of cranks 1.5.1 mounted on the side of the roller line frame 1.4.1 and a set of stop cylinders 1.5.2, the two ends of each set of cranks 1.5.1 are shaft-connected to the roller line frame 1.4.1, and one end of each set of cranks 1.5.1 is coaxially connected to a set of stop rods 1.5.3, the output shaft end of the stop cylinder 1.5.2 is coaxially connected to the other end of one set of cranks 1.5.1 opposite to the stop rod 1.5.3, and a set of connecting rods 1.5.4 are transversely connected between the two sets of stop rods 1.5.3; under the drive of the stop cylinder 1.5.2, one set of cranks 1.5.1 rotates around the shaft and drives one set of stop rods 1.5.3 to move in a circular motion, the other set of stop rods 1.5.3 synchronously moves in a circular motion under the transmission of the connecting rod 1.5.4, and the other set of cranks 1.5.1 at the far end synchronously rotates around the shaft;

[0030] When the blocking control instruction is triggered, the cylinder rod of the blocking cylinder 1.5.2 is extended, the blocking rod 1.5.3 drives the connecting rod 1.5.4 to rotate to the highest point of the circumference, at this time, the connecting rod 1.5 is 10-20mm higher than the roller surface of the roller line 1.4, so as to prevent the material box from continuing to move forward. When the reset instruction is received, the cylinder rod of the blocking cylinder 1.5.2 is retracted, the blocking rod 1.5.3 drives the connecting rod 1.5.4 to rotate to the lowest point of the circumference, at this time, the connecting rod 1.5 is lower than the roller surface of the roller line 1.4, and the material box can continue to travel along the roller line 1.4.

[0031] As the above content, the embodiments given in the drawings are only preferred schemes for realizing the purpose of the present application. Those skilled in the art can be inspired by the embodiments and directly deduce other alternative structures meeting the design concept of the present application. Other structure features obtained by the embodiments also belong to the scope of the present application.
