[0042] Start the servo motor and contact the brake limit, so that the servo motor 353 drives the screw rod 350 to rotate, which can adjust the upper and lower positions of the synchronous frame 347. The synchronous frame 347 drives the guide rod 345 to rise and fall linearly inside the guide sleeve 344, thereby driving the upper support ring 346 to move up and down, which is used to adjust the specifications between the upper support ring 346 and the lower support ring 343 to meet the loading and use of hydrogen cylinders of different specifications.

[0043] As another embodiment provided by the present invention, the KBK flexible overhead crane is composed of KBK flexible overhead crane 1 and KBK flexible overhead crane 2 5. KBK flexible overhead crane 1 is located directly above the hydrogen cylinder frame 3, and KBK flexible overhead crane 2 5 is located above one side of the loading lifting and pushing mechanism 2.

[0051] The specific workflow is:

[0052] 1) Manually operate a forklift to drag multiple hydrogen cylinders to the side of the loading lifting and pushing mechanism 2, check the on-site condition of the equipment, power on the equipment, and perform an operation test on the equipment;

[0053] 2) Manually operate the KBK flexible overhead crane 1 to hoist the hydrogen cylinder frame 3 above the frame roller conveyor line 6, and use the positioning device to fix the hydrogen cylinder frame 3 on the frame roller conveyor line 6;

[0054] 3) Manually operate the KBK flexible overhead crane 25 to hoist the hydrogen cylinders on the forklift one by one onto the loading pallet 28, and simultaneously use the positioning mechanism 272 to position the hydrogen cylinders;

[0055] 4) Start the lifting bracket 29, first control the supporting arm 291 to descend to the lowest position, then control the saddle 292 to move, so that the supporting arm 291 moves to the lower side of the hydrogen cylinder located above the loading support plate 28, and use the supporting arm 291 to lift the hydrogen cylinder and transfer it to the loading frame corresponding to the hydrogen cylinder frame 3, that is, the hydrogen cylinder is aligned with the center of the upper support ring 346 and the lower support ring 343;

[0056] 5) Start the loading, lifting and pushing mechanism 2 to adjust the three degrees of freedom of the push rod 26 so that the support seat 45 at the end of the push rod 26 contacts one end of the hydrogen cylinder, thereby fixing and lifting the one end of the hydrogen cylinder;

[0057] 6) Start the docking push-in lifting mechanism 4 to adjust the docking rod 44 in three degrees of freedom, so that the docking rod 44 is inserted into the interior of the hydrogen cylinder frame 3 and the bracket 45 at the end of the docking rod 44 contacts the other end of the hydrogen cylinder, thereby fixing and lifting the other end of the hydrogen cylinder;

[0058] 7) Simultaneously start the loading lifting and pushing mechanism 2 and the docking pushing and lifting mechanism 4, causing the connecting rod 44 and the push rod 26 to move linearly synchronously, so that the hydrogen cylinder is located inside the upper support ring 346 and the lower support ring 343. At this time, the loading lifting and pushing mechanism 2 and the docking pushing and lifting mechanism 4 are controlled to move in the opposite direction, causing the connecting rod 44 and the push rod 26 to return to their original positions;

[0059] 8) Following steps 1-7 above, place multiple hydrogen cylinders sequentially into the loading space within the hydrogen cylinder frame 3. After the hydrogen cylinder frame 3 is loaded, the operator activates the servo motor 353, which uses the screw rod 350 and screw nut 351 to move the synchronous frame 347 downward. The synchronous frame 347 then drives the upper support ring 346 downward. Finally, the brake is applied to lock the screw rod 350, thereby securing the hydrogen cylinders within the frame using the upper support ring 346 and the lower support ring 343.

[0060] 9) Release the positioning device on the frame roller conveyor line 6 so that the hydrogen cylinder frame 3 can move on the frame roller conveyor line 6, start the drive motor to drive the conveying roller 62 to operate, and transport the hydrogen cylinder frame 3 to the forklift below for transfer.

[0061] The above description is merely illustrative of certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. It goes without saying that those skilled in the art will be able to modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and description are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims.
