DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The specific structure of the present invention is further described below.

[0019] The present invention is directed to an automatic storage and retrieval device for a movable rope-gripping device overhead passenger device chair, and the structure is as follows Figure 1-4 As shown, it includes a chair storage track 11, a recovery inclined slide 4, a distribution inclined slide 13 and a claw transfer slide 8. The chair storage track 11 is used to store the chair 1. The chair storage track 11 is provided with two ports for the chair 1 to enter and exit.

[0020] A transfer slide 8 with a circulating structure is provided above the chair storage track 11, and a transfer claw 9 is provided on the transfer slide; a linear drive device 6 is provided above the recovery inclined slide 4, and a recovery claw 7 is provided at the driving end of the linear drive device 6 to move along the inclined slide, and the recovery direction end of the wire rope 3 of the lifting chair 1 passes through the lower part of the recovery inclined slide 4, and the release direction end of the wire rope 3 of the lifting chair 1 passes through the lower part of the release inclined slide 13, the upper end of the recovery inclined slide 4 is connected to the input end of the chair storage track 11, and the upper end of the release inclined slide 13 is connected to the output end of the chair storage track 11.

[0021] A lower proximity sensor 5 is provided below the intersection of the recovery inclined slide 4 and the wire rope 3, and an upper proximity sensor is provided below the connection position of the recovery inclined slide 4 and the hanging chair storage track 11. The lower proximity sensor 5 is connected to the linear drive device 6, and the upper proximity sensor is connected to the drive device of the transfer claw.

[0022] Two groups of front and rear rollers 14, a roller frame 15 connecting the axes of the two rollers 14, and a connecting plate 16 below the rollers 14 are arranged above the transfer claw 9. The rollers 14 slide on the transfer slideway. A transfer claw is arranged in the middle position of the connecting plate 16. The transfer claw extends downward to the rear of the movable rope gripper 2 of the hanging chair 1 on the hanging chair storage track 11.

[0023] There are three groups of connecting plates 16, and the roller frame 15 and the three groups of connecting plates 16 form an isosceles trapezoidal structure, and the transfer claw is fixed in the middle of the lowest connecting plate 16. The linear drive device 6 is a cylinder, the cylinder body of the cylinder is fixed above the inclined slideway, and the piston end of the cylinder is provided with a recovery claw 7.

[0024] Chairlift recycling storage process

[0025] The chair is pressed against the wire rope 3 by the movable rope gripper 2 and moves along with the wire rope 3. When it moves to the recovery inclined slide 4, the chair continues to slide along the recovery inclined slide 4 by inertia, passing through the lower proximity sensor 5 installed on the sensor mounting frame. The proximity sensor detects the chair, and the linear drive device 6 is started, pushing the chair to slide along the recovery inclined slide 4 through the recovery claw 7. When the chair slides to the upper proximity sensor 10 installed on the sensor mounting frame, the transfer claw 9 is started and moves the chair to slide the length of the chair storage position to the chair storage track 11. The recovery claw 7 and the transfer claw 9 are both one-way claws, which push the chair in automatic mode and do not affect the manual pushing of the chair to complete its receiving and storage in manual mode.

[0026] Chair lift process

[0027] When someone needs to ride on the overhead passenger device, or there is no vacant space in the chair storage device, the operating claw 9 operates to travel the distance of a storage position, pushing the chair from the chair storage track 11 to the distribution inclined slide 13, and the chair slides down by gravity until the chair's movable rope gripper 2 contacts the wire rope 3, and then runs with the wire rope 3 to complete the transportation of people or chairs.

[0028] The invented device realizes the automation of chairlift recovery and release, and realizes real-time monitoring and dispatching on the well through the mine network, sensors and monitoring probes. There is no need for real-time management personnel to be on duty, and only regular maintenance and inspection personnel are required. The device has a low failure rate and is easy to maintain. The driving mechanism in the device is composed of a transmission chain, a cylinder, a sensor, etc. The parts have a simple structure and are universal standard parts, which are easy to use and maintain. The device requires low investment and low energy consumption. It is modified without affecting the original overhead passenger device. In addition, the device does not require high-power or non-standard equipment.
