[0006] TECHNICAL EFFECT
[0007] The present application converts the rotation of the motor into the translation of the slider through the crank slider mechanism and the ball screw mechanism, drives the connecting rod to rotate, and finally makes the load platform make reciprocating motion at the luggage rack and the luggage loading and unloading work point. The vertical ball screw is used for power supply to drive the four-bar linkage mechanism to move, and a certain distance is left between the screw and the driving rod, so that the load platform makes reciprocating motion at the luggage rack and the luggage loading and unloading work point, and a screw is added at the terminal to prolong the drop distance. Compared with the prior art, the present application can realize the curved motion of the load platform in the narrow space above the luggage rack, avoid collision with the fixed luggage rack, avoid the generation of dead point at the limit position, and ensure the safety and controllability of the whole process.
