[0020] Figure 2 It is the electrical design drawing of the pulse multi-storey elevator of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. This embodiment is implemented based on the technical solution of the present invention, and provides a detailed implementation method and specific operation process, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0022] Example 1

[0023] like Figure 1As shown, the pulse multi-storey elevator provided by the present invention includes a main frame spanning multiple floors, and a hoist tray is arranged in the main frame, which is driven by a driving motor to reciprocate between the main frame and each floor. Two sets of object detection photoelectric sensors are arranged in parallel in the hoist tray to detect whether the cargo area is loaded in the hoist tray.

[0024] The main frame is provided with a pair of loading start and stop switches and a pair of unloading start and stop switches on each floor. These switches are respectively connected to the upstream and downstream conveying devices of the corresponding floors to realize linkage control of the loading and unloading process of the elevator.

[0025] The main frame is provided with an interference detection sensor at the upper and lower positions near the floor of each floor. The interference detection sensor adopts a proximity switch. If an object is detected approaching when the hoist pallet is loading on that floor, a stop command is issued to avoid a collision.

[0026] The main frame is provided with hoist pallet detection sensors between each layer. These hoist pallet detection sensors adopt proximity switches to detect the position of the lowering pallet and then control the braking timing through contactors.

[0027] At the bottom of the main frame, below the lowest position of the elevator pallet, there are two sets of item drop detection photoelectric sensors. The two sets of item drop detection photoelectric sensors are arranged parallel to the width direction of the main frame. When the goods loaded on the elevator pallet fall from above, the item drop detection photoelectric sensors will be triggered and the staff will be reminded and alarmed.

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the main components of the circuit part of the pulse multi-storey elevator of the present invention include: frequency converter, contactor, drive motor and brake. The three-phase power supply provides three-phase power supply for the vertical lifting drive motor of the pulse multi-storey elevator after passing through the frequency converter U1; for the brake, the three-phase power supply first passes through a contactor KM1, and then rectified by a rectifier to supply power to the brake. A DSC isolation switch box is set between the frequency converter U1 and the drive motor and between the contactor KM1 and the rectifier.

[0029] The inverter is connected to an encoder and a high-frequency braking resistor R1. The inverter's signal receiving interface includes: input interfaces for rising, falling, motor high speed, and motor low speed signals; the inverter's signal output interface includes: output interfaces for hoist start and stop signals. It can realize functions such as precise start and stop, precise acceleration and deceleration, and abnormal reset for controlling pulse multi-layer elevators.

[0030] The signal input end of contactor KM1 is connected to the hoist pallet detection sensor, and the inverter is connected to the contactor KM1 and the inverter U1 signal to receive and feedback the output synchronization control signal. The timing of brake activation is controlled through contactor KM1 by using the proximity switch of the lowering pallet to prevent the hoist from slipping.

[0031] In this embodiment, the model of the drive motor is MGA30040; the model of the frequency converter is FC-360H15KT4E20H2BXCDXXSXXXXAXBX; and the model of the encoder is MG450.

[0032] The preferred specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above. It should be understood that a person skilled in the art can make many modifications and changes based on the concept of the present invention without creative work. Therefore, any technical solution that can be obtained by a person skilled in the art through logical analysis, reasoning or limited experiments based on the concept of the present invention on the basis of the prior art should be within the scope of protection determined by the claims.
