[0059] Now, exemplary embodiments according to the present application will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, these exemplary embodiments can be implemented in a variety of different forms and should not be interpreted as being limited to the embodiments described herein. It should be understood that these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of this application thorough and complete, and to fully convey the concepts of these exemplary embodiments to those of ordinary skill in the art. In the accompanying drawings, for the sake of clarity, the thickness of layers and regions may be exaggerated, and the same reference numerals are used to represent the same devices, and thus their descriptions will be omitted.

[0060] Combine Figures 1 to 9 As shown, according to a specific embodiment of the present application, a vehicle lifting device is provided.

[0061] Specifically, if Figure 1 、 Figure 5As shown, the vehicle lifting device includes a positioning shell 10, a support frame 20, a clamping mechanism 30 and a lifting mechanism 40. The positioning shell 10 includes a shell body 11. The shell body 11 has a receiving space 100 with an opening on one side. The receiving space 100 is used to receive the vehicle. The support frame 20 extends along the length direction of the positioning shell 10. The support frame 20 includes a frame body 21 and a guide shaft 22. The frame body 21 is movably connected to the shell body 11. The guide shaft 22 is arranged in the frame body 21. The support frame 20 is two. The two support frames 20 are located on opposite sides of the accommodating space 100; the clamping mechanism 30 is arranged in the support frame 20, and the clamping mechanism 30 is used to clamp the vehicle; the lifting mechanism 40 is arranged in the support frame 20, and one end of the lifting mechanism 40 is movably connected to the guide shaft 22 through the transmission assembly 50, and the other end of the lifting mechanism 40 is movably connected to the shell body 11 at least along the height direction of the shell body 11; wherein, the lifting mechanism 40 is used to drive the frame body 21 to move along the height direction of the shell body 11 to lift the vehicle.

[0062] Using the technical solution of this embodiment, the accommodation space 100 of the housing body 11 is used to accommodate a vehicle. When the vehicle is moved into the accommodation space 100, the support frames 20 located on both sides of the vehicle (on both sides of the accommodation space 100) can clamp the vehicle through the clamping mechanisms 30. Then, the support frames 20 are lifted by the lifting mechanisms 40 inside the support frames 20 on both sides of the vehicle. The support frames 20 then drive the clamping mechanisms 30 inside the frame body 21 to lift the vehicle. Since the clamping mechanisms 30 are now clamping the vehicle, the lifting mechanisms 40 can lift the vehicle. That is, through the coordinated action of the clamping mechanisms 30 and the lifting mechanisms 40, the vehicle is precisely clamped and then stably lifted. Moreover, by adding a guide shaft 22 and a transmission assembly to the mechanical transmission of both the clamping mechanisms 30 and the lifting mechanisms 40, the use of motors can be reduced, thereby reducing costs. At the same time, the vehicle is suitable for outdoor use and can effectively cope with various outdoor vehicle clamping, lifting, and transporting environments, ensuring the normal lifting and transporting of vehicles and reducing the risk of vehicle damage during operation.

[0063] Specifically, if Figure 6As shown, the lifting mechanism 40 includes a lifting slider 41 and a roller 42. The lifting slider 41 is movably connected to the guide shaft 22 via a transmission assembly 50. Along the width direction of the positioning housing 10, at least a portion of the roller 42 protrudes from the side wall of the lifting slider 41. The roller 42 is movably connected to the housing body 11. The lifting slider 41 is used to drive the roller 42 to move, thereby driving the frame body 21 to move along the height direction of the housing body 11. The lifting slider 41 can slide along the extension direction of the guide shaft 22 via the transmission assembly 50, thereby driving the roller 42 to move. Due to the relatively movable connection between the roller 42 and the housing body 11, when the roller 42 is driven by the lifting slider 41, the roller 42 moves along the height direction of the housing body 11, and in turn drives the frame body 21 to move along the height direction of the housing body 11. Through the coordinated cooperation between the roller 42 and the lifting slider 41, and the coordinated cooperation between the roller 42 and the shell body 11, mechanical linkage is achieved to lift the frame body 21, thereby driving the vehicle to be lifted, thereby enhancing the overall stability of the mechanical device and improving the safety and accuracy of the handling operation.

[0064] Furthermore, if Figure 6 As shown, the housing 11 is provided with a groove 110, within which the roller 42 is movably positioned. At least a portion of the groove 110 extends along the height of the housing 11. The roller 42 has a raised position within the groove 110, as well as a lowered position within the groove 110. The groove 110 in the housing 11 provides a precise trajectory for the roller 42, ensuring it follows a fixed path. This reduces deviations and instabilities during movement, and improves the accuracy and reliability of the overall mechanical device. The movement of the roller 42 within the groove 110 further optimizes the mechanical device's performance in outdoor environments. During transport, the roller 42 can accurately switch between the raised and lowered positions. This precise control enables the mechanical device to stably lift and lower vehicles, ensuring safe and stable transport even in heavy rain, flooded areas, and potholes, significantly improving operational efficiency and safety.

[0065] In this embodiment, the working principle of the cooperation between the lifting mechanism 40 and the rolling groove 110 on the housing body 11 is as follows:

[0066] like Figure 6As shown, the rolling groove 110 has extension space in both the height and length directions of the housing body 11. The rolling groove 110 is generally Z-shaped. The guide shaft 22 transmits the driving force to the lifting slider 41 through the transmission assembly 50. Since the lifting slider 41 is connected to the roller 42, the lifting slider 41 drives the roller 42 to move within the rolling groove 110. The extension direction of the rolling groove 110 restricts the movement direction of the roller 42, so that the roller 42 drives the lifting slider 41 along the extension direction of the rolling groove 110. Since the lifting mechanism 40 is connected to the frame body 21, the lifting mechanism 40 drives the frame body 21 to move together. This enables the lifting slider 41 to move in the height direction of the housing body 11, thereby driving the frame body 21 and the vehicle to be lifted.

[0067] It should be noted that the extension direction of the rolling groove 110 can be set arbitrarily to make the lifting process of the vehicle smoother and more stable. The interaction between the roller 42 and the rolling groove 110 on the shell body 11 improves the lifting capacity of the equipment and ensures the stability of the vehicle during the lifting process.

[0068] Furthermore, if Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 6 As shown, the transmission assembly 50 includes a clutch 51 and a screw 52. A second transmission gear 510 is provided at one end of the clutch 51, and the second transmission gear 510 is transmission-connected to the guide shaft 22. One end of the screw 52 is connected to the other end of the clutch 51, and a clamping mechanism 30 is provided on the screw 52, ​​or a lifting mechanism 40 is provided on the screw 52. A second transmission gear 510 is provided at one end of the clutch 51. The guide shaft 22 can transmit the driving force to the clutch 51 through gear transmission. One end of the lead screw 52 is connected to the other end of the clutch 51, allowing the clutch 51 to transmit the driving force transmitted by the guide shaft 22 to the lead screw 52. The lead screw 52 is mounted with a clamping mechanism 30 or a lifting mechanism 40. The lead screw 52 uses the linear motion generated by the rotation of the thread. When the clamping mechanism 30 is provided on the lead screw 52, ​​it can drive the clamping mechanism 30 to switch the state of clamping the vehicle. When the lift mechanism 40 is provided on the lead screw 52, ​​it can drive the lift slider 41 to move along the extension direction of the lead screw 52 to lift the vehicle. By utilizing the transmission characteristics of the clutch 51 and the lead screw 52, ​​power transmission and control of the clamping mechanism 30 and the lift mechanism 40 are achieved, greatly improving the adaptability and efficiency of the equipment in outdoor transportation scenarios. The fast response of the clutch 51 and the precise displacement control of the lead screw 52 enable the equipment to quickly adjust its execution strategy under different conditions.

[0069] Furthermore, if Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 6As shown, a driven transmission gear 221 is disposed at one end of the guide shaft 22. The guide shaft 22 is also provided with at least one first transmission gear 220, which meshes with a second transmission gear 510. The guide shaft 22 is used to transmit at least one driving force. The guide shaft 22 receives the driving force of the power system via the driven transmission gear 221. The power is then transmitted to the clutch 51 via the first transmission gear 220 disposed on the guide shaft 22 and the second transmission gear 510 disposed at one end of the clutch 51. This power drives the lead screw 52 to move the clamping mechanism 30 or the lifting mechanism 40 in a predetermined direction, thereby clamping or lifting the vehicle. The alignment of the driven transmission gear 221 and the first transmission gear 220 on the guide shaft 22, as well as the second transmission gear 510 on the clutch 51, significantly improves the performance of the transport mechanism. The precise meshing between the gears ensures accurate power transmission, avoids loss and instability during power transmission, effectively addresses the challenges of complex terrain and changing weather conditions, and ensures safe and efficient vehicle transport. In addition, the guide shaft 22 can achieve refined control of the actuator through the coordination of gears, improve the flexibility of the lifting equipment, and provide the possibility for intelligent transportation.

[0070] In this embodiment, if Figure 4 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 As shown, the first transmission gear 220 can be a single-tooth or multi-tooth cylindrical transmission gear, and can be a single-tooth transmission gear or a multi-tooth transmission gear as needed. That is, by adjusting the number of teeth of the transmission gear, the movement amplitude of the clamping mechanism 30 or the lifting mechanism 40 can be adjusted to ensure precise control of the vehicle clamping or lifting movement and maintain vehicle stability.

[0071] Furthermore, if Figure 2 、 Figure 3As shown, the clamping mechanism 30 includes a movable slider 31 and a clamping rod 33. The movable slider 31 is movably mounted on the lead screw 52 along the extension direction of the lead screw 52, ​​and a movable rod 32 is provided on the movable slider 31; one end of the clamping rod 33 is provided on the frame body 21, and the other end of the clamping rod 33 is rotatably connected to the movable rod 32; wherein, the clamping rod 33 has a clamping state for clamping the vehicle, and the clamping rod 33 has a releasing state for releasing the vehicle, and the movable slider 31 is used to drive the movable rod 32 to move, thereby driving the clamping rod 33 to switch states. The movable slider 31 rotates along the extension direction of the screw 52 through the screw 52, ​​so that the movable slider 31 can move linearly along the extension direction of the screw 52, ​​that is, the power required by the clamping mechanism 30 is transmitted through the screw 52. One end of the clamping rod 33 is fixed to the frame body 21, and the other end is rotatably connected to the movable rod 32. This allows the clamping rod to flexibly switch between clamping the vehicle and releasing the vehicle. When the movable slider 31 moves along the screw 52, ​​the movable rod 32 will correspondingly drive the clamping rod 33 to adjust its position, thereby triggering the clamping state or release state switching of the clamping rod 33. In the clamping state, the clamping rod 33 can firmly fix the vehicle to prevent the vehicle from sliding during transportation. The linkage between the movable slider 31 and the movable rod 32 realizes the clamping and releasing actions of the clamping rod 33, thereby adapting to the transportation requirements of different vehicle models and improving the versatility and transportation efficiency of the equipment.

[0072] In this embodiment, one end of the clamping rod 33 is arranged on the frame body 21, and the middle section of the clamping rod 33 is connected to the movable rod 32. When the movable slider 31 moves, it can drive the movable rod 32 to move, and the movable rod 32 can then drive the clamping rod 33 to rotate with the fixed connection point between the clamping rod 33 and the frame body 21 as the rotation center. When the clamping rod 33 rotates to be perpendicular to the movable slider 31, the clamping rod 33 is in a clamping state of clamping the vehicle. When the clamping rod 33 rotates to be parallel to the movable slider 31, the clamping rod 33 is in a release state of releasing the vehicle.

[0073] Furthermore, if Figure 1 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 As shown, there are multiple transmission assemblies 50, at least one lead screw 52 is movably connected to the lifting slider 41, at least one lead screw 52 is movably connected to the moving slider 31, and the lead screw 52 is connected to the guide shaft 22 through the clutch 51. Through the cooperation of multiple transmission assemblies 50, independent control of the lifting mechanism 40 and the clamping mechanism 30 is achieved, thereby improving the control accuracy and response speed of the equipment, and improving the handling efficiency and safety of the equipment. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. Figure 7 、 Figure 8As shown, the two transmission assemblies 50 are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of a guide shaft 22, the clamping mechanism 30 is connected to the transmission assembly 50 located on the lower side of the guide shaft 22, and the lifting mechanism 40 is connected to the transmission assembly 50 located on the upper side of the guide shaft 22. The guide shaft 22 can be engaged with the two second transmission gears 510 separately or simultaneously through one or more first transmission gears 220. Since the second transmission gear 510 is arranged at one end of the clutch 51, the second transmission gear 510 can be connected to or disconnected from the screw 52 through the clutch 51, thereby realizing transmission control of the two transmission assemblies 50 through a guide shaft 22, that is, logically, the vehicle can be clamped by the clamping mechanism 30 first, and then the vehicle can be lifted by the lifting mechanism 40.

[0074] Furthermore, if Figure 1 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 9 As shown, the vehicle lifting device also includes a drive assembly 60, which is disposed on the housing body 11. The drive assembly 60 includes a drive shaft 61 and a drive motor 62. Drive shaft 61 is provided with a driving transmission gear 611 at both ends. The drive shaft 61 is also provided with a driving gear 612. The driving transmission gear 611 meshes with the driven transmission gear 221. The output end of the drive motor 62 is at least connected to the driving gear 612 for transmission. The drive motor 62 is used to provide driving force. The driving transmission gears 611 at both ends of the drive shaft 61 mesh with the driven transmission gear 221 on the guide shaft 22, thereby establishing a direct transmission path from the drive motor 62 to the guide shaft 22. The drive motor 62 transmits power to the drive shaft 61 via the driving gear 612 on the drive shaft 61. The power is then transmitted to the clamping mechanism 30 or the lifting mechanism 40 through the multi-drive shaft 61, the guide shaft 22, and the transmission assembly 50, thereby enabling the device to clamp and lift the vehicle.

[0075] It should be noted that drive assembly 60 not only ensures the generation of sufficient driving force but also, through precise control of the gear transmission, ensures that power is accurately distributed where it is needed. The meshing of active transmission gear 611 and driven transmission gear 221, and the connection between drive gear 612 and drive shaft 61, together form an efficient power transmission chain. This chain enables the mechanical device to flexibly adjust power output according to operational requirements to cope with different working conditions and environmental conditions, such as rainy days and potholes outdoors. Through precise control of the drive motor, the mechanical device can achieve micron-level motion adjustment in key links such as clamping, lifting, and lowering, greatly improving the safety of the handling process and the stability of the vehicle.

[0076] Specifically, if Figure 9As shown, the drive shaft 61 is movably arranged on the shell body 11, and the drive gear 612 is transmission-connected to the output end of the drive motor 62 through the transmission chain 613. The drive shaft 61 has a lifting engagement position for driving the active transmission gear 611 to rise, and the drive shaft 61 has an initial position for driving the active transmission gear 611 to descend, wherein, when the roller 42 is in the lifting position, the drive shaft 61 is in the lifting engagement position, and when the roller 42 is in the descending position, the drive shaft 61 is in the initial position. Since the lifting mechanism 40 is arranged in the frame body 21, when the lifting mechanism 40 moves in the height direction along the rolling groove 110, the frame body 21 is driven by the roller 42 to move in the height direction. A guide shaft 22 engaged with the drive shaft 61 is also provided in the frame body 21. In order to ensure that the power required by the lifting mechanism 40 during the lifting process can be continuously provided by the driving end, the drive shaft 61 is also required to be set as a structure that can move along the height direction of the shell body 11, so that the active transmission gear 611 and the driven transmission gear 221 remain in a meshing state.

[0077] In this embodiment, if Figure 9 As shown, the drive gear 612 is connected to the output end of the drive motor 62 via a transmission chain 613. The drive gear 612 can be rotatably disposed on the housing body 11 along the circumference of the output end of the drive motor 62, with the output end of the drive motor 62 as the center. The drive motor 62 transmits power to the drive shaft 61 through the drive gear 612 and transmission chain 613. The drive shaft 61 adjusts to the corresponding transmission position according to the current working requirements (lifting or lowering). This precise control not only improves the handling efficiency of the equipment, but also ensures safety and stability during operation.

[0078] Furthermore, the clamping mechanism 30 includes a sensor assembly, which is mounted on the clamping rod 33 and is used to collect at least the clamping force of the clamping rod 33 on the vehicle. By integrating the sensor assembly into the clamping rod 33 of the clamping mechanism 30, the sensor assembly can monitor and collect real-time clamping force data of the clamping rod 33 while the vehicle is being held. This function not only helps ensure the safety and stability of the vehicle during handling but also provides critical information feedback for the automated control of the mechanical device.

[0079] It should be noted that the guide shaft 22 may be provided with a signal transmission line or the guide shaft 22 as a whole may be provided as a light rod or other signal transmission device. In addition to the power transmission function, the guide shaft 22 may also provide real-time feedback of the clamping force signal of the clamping rod 33 collected by the sensor component, thereby realizing automatic clamping, lifting and other operations on the vehicle, thereby improving the overall automation and intelligent performance of the equipment.

[0080] Furthermore, the vehicle lifting device includes a control module, which is disposed on the housing 11 and is electrically connected to the drive motor 62, the sensor assembly, and the transmission assembly 50. The control module is configured to receive electrical signals from the sensor assembly and, based on these signals, control the operating state of the drive motor 62 and the transmission assembly 50. The control module receives electrical signals from the sensor assembly, which contain key information regarding clamping force, device status, and environmental conditions. By analyzing this data in real time, the control module accurately understands the device's operating status and external operating conditions. Based on this collected data, the control module can quickly make decisions and adjust the operating state of the drive motor 62 and the transmission assembly 50. For example, if the clamping force exceeds a safety threshold, the control module will immediately command the drive motor to reduce its output power or adjust the angle of the clamping rod through the transmission assembly to prevent damage to the vehicle. The control module is also responsible for coordinating the interaction between the drive motor 62, the sensor assembly, and the transmission assembly 50 to ensure the harmonious operation of the entire system. By integrating and coordinating the operation of various subsystems, the control module achieves intelligent control of the device, improving its intelligence and ease of operation.

[0081] Furthermore, if Figure 5 As shown, the positioning shell 10 also includes a plurality of moving wheels 12, which are arranged on the shell body 11 along the circumference of the shell body 11. The moving wheels 12 are transmission-connected to the output end of the drive motor 62, and the moving wheels 12 are used to drive the positioning shell 10 to move. The moving wheels 12 are directly connected to the output end of the drive motor 62 through a transmission mechanism, which means that the power of the drive motor 62 can be directly and efficiently converted into the rotation of the moving wheels 12, driving the equipment forward or backward, and realizing precise positioning and handling actions. By adopting the moving wheels 12 distributed circumferentially of the shell body 11 and the direct transmission connection with the drive motor 62, the equipment not only obtains a powerful mobility, but also enhances the flexibility and adaptability of operation, providing an efficient, safe and intelligent outdoor handling solution for the commodity automobile handling industry.

[0082] The present application also provides a preferred embodiment of a vehicle lifting device. Through the design of the lifting device, it can adapt to handling operations in multiple outdoor environments and solve various discomfort problems caused by using vehicle-lifting robots outdoors.

[0083] Specifically, the vehicle clamping function and the vehicle body lifting function are achieved through a mechanical structure, which mainly includes a positioning housing 10, a clamping mechanism 30, and a lifting mechanism 40. These components are connected through gears, a transmission shaft, and a clutch. The specific principles and steps of clamping the vehicle are as follows:

[0084] The clamping rod 33 on the side close to the drive component 60 is first adjusted to a clamping state and slides along the extension direction of the guide shaft 22 toward the side away from the drive component 60 until the clamping rod 33 contacts the wheel. The sensor component on the clamping rod 33 detects the pressure on the clamping rod 33 and transmits the signal to the control module through the guide shaft 22. After the control module determines that the wheel is clamped, it sends a control signal to move the clamping mechanism 30 on the side of the drive component 60 through the control principle of the guide shaft 22 and the transmission component 50, and unfolds the clamping rod 33 of the clamping mechanism 30 until all the clamping rods 33 contact the wheel of the vehicle. The information is then transmitted to the control module through the sensor component, and the control module determines that the clamping is completed.

[0085] After the equipment stably clamps the vehicle, the control module can choose to lift the vehicle according to user needs, or the control module can automatically lift the vehicle according to a pre-set mode. When the control module determines that a lifting operation is required, the control module transmits the driving force to the transmission component 50 through the guide shaft 22. The transmission component 50 drives the lifting slider 41 to move along the screw 52, ​​and the lifting slider 41 drives the roller 42 to move in the rolling groove 110, thereby realizing the lifting of the frame body 21, the clamping mechanism 30 and the vehicle through the cooperation of the roller 42 and the rolling groove 110.

[0086] It should be noted that the vehicle lifting equipment in this embodiment can be used for storing, lifting and transporting vehicles indoors, and can also be used for transporting vehicles outdoors, or for outdoor parking and other scenarios. When the vehicle lifting equipment is used for outdoor parking or transport, since the vehicle can be lifted to a certain height, in the face of weather conditions such as rain and snow, the vehicle can be prevented from being in a low environment, causing rainwater to submerge the vehicle and affect the vehicle.

[0087] It can be seen from the above description that the vehicle lifting equipment in the above embodiment has the following beneficial effects: through the design of the adaptive clamping mechanism 30 and the lifting mechanism 40, automatic clamping and lifting of vehicles with different wheelbases are realized, which significantly improves the handling efficiency and flexibility. The overall structure reduces the use of servo motors, reduces equipment costs, and enhances the adaptability and reliability of the equipment in complex outdoor environments. In addition, by integrating sensor components and control modules, the equipment can monitor the clamping force in real time to ensure the safety of the vehicle during the handling process. At the same time, the addition of moving wheels makes the movement of the equipment in the parking lot more flexible, further improving the efficiency of the handling operation. Overall, the vehicle lifting equipment of the present application provides an efficient, safe and low-cost solution for outdoor commodity vehicle handling operations.
