It can complete tasks such as stacking and transporting goods by adjusting the height of the loading platform.

[0003] The existing stacker is a device that uses a lifting device to adjust the height of the loading platform to stack different goods on the loading platform. However, the following problems exist during the use of the stacker: Problem 1: Due to the limited height space, the weight of the goods and the height of the goods are certain, and the allowable height of the warehouse is certain. In order to store more goods and achieve the greatest possible space utilization, the distance between the highest point of the stacker and the loading platform can only be compressed as much as possible. The size of the movable pulley installed in the loading platform is determined by the diameter of the wire rope. Therefore, the greater the weight of the loading platform plus the goods, the larger the movable pulley in the loading platform and the higher the height of the loading platform. When the height of the goods is lower than the height of the top surface of the loading platform, it is a waste of height space; Problem 2: The structure adopts a T-type guide rail for linear elevator connection, which has high processing accuracy and installation difficulty. At the same time, this structure is not convenient for using counterweights, the reduction motor is large, the cost is increased, and debugging is difficult.

The column 1, the upper crossbeam 2 and the walking beam 3 form a frame structure. The frame structure reduces the volume of the equipment and plays a role in saving space. A lifting drive motor 5 is installed at the lower part of the right side of the column 1. A cargo platform 10 is installed on the inner side of the column 1. The cargo platform 10 drives the goods to be lifted and transported. A lifting chain 6 is wound around the outside of the lifting drive motor 5 to pull the cargo platform 10 up and down. When the lifting chain 6 is active, the lifting chain 6 drives the height of the cargo platform 10 to be pulled and adjusted. A second sprocket 8 is installed inside one side of the upper crossbeam 2, and two sides of the upper crossbeam 2 are installed inside. The third sprocket 9, the second sprocket 8 and the third sprocket 9 drive the lifting chain 6 to limit its moving trajectory, and the lifting chain 6 drives the height of the cargo platform 10 to be pulled and adjusted. An auxiliary frame 13 is installed on the left side of the column 1, and a pulley 15 is installed inside the upper beam 2. A steel wire rope 17 is wrapped around the outside of the pulley 15. A counterweight 18 is fixed to one end of the steel wire rope 17, and the other end is fixed to the upper part of the cargo platform 10. The counterweight 18 increases the upward pulling force on the cargo platform 10 to avoid the cargo platform 10 being too heavy, resulting in excessive torque when the lifting drive motor 5 reverses rotation, resulting in increased energy consumption. A counterweight 18 is fixed to one end of the steel wire rope 17.

[0030] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5The lifting drive motor 5 includes a motor frame 51, which is installed on the side of the column 1. A motor 52 is installed inside the motor frame 51, and two sets of fourth sprockets 53 are installed on the outside of the output shaft of the motor 52. Two sets of fifth sprockets 54 are installed inside the motor frame 51 and on the side of the motor 52. The lifting chain 6 is wound around the outside of the fourth sprocket 53 and the fifth sprocket 54 in sequence. By starting the motor 52, the motor 52 drives the fourth sprocket 53 to rotate. At the same time, the fifth sprocket 54 is installed on both sides of the fourth sprocket 53, that is, the fourth sprocket 53 drives the fifth sprocket 54 to rotate. At the same time, the lifting chain 6 is wound around the fourth sprocket 53, that is, during the starting process of the motor 52, the fourth sprocket 53 and the fifth sprocket 54 can be driven to rotate, and the movement of the lifting chain 6 is controlled. The lifting chain 6 drives the overall height of the cargo platform 10 to be pulled and moved.

Holding wheels 12 are installed on both sides of the cargo platform 10, wherein the holding wheels 12 are fitted on the outside of the column 1, and a safety clamp is installed outside the cargo platform. It is used in conjunction with the traction wheel, wire rope and speed limiting wheel. When the cargo platform 10 sinks downward, the cargo platform descends faster than the speed limit of the speed limiting wheel. The safety clamp is locked by the connecting rod on the cargo platform, which is fitted on the T-shaped guide rail 4 for the elevator installed inside the column 1, to prevent the cargo platform 10 from falling and causing damage to the overall structure of the cargo platform 10, and plays a role in preventing the equipment from sinking and causing damage.

[0034] See also Figure 6There are three groups of pulleys 15 installed, and the three groups of pulleys 15 are arranged crosswise with each other.

The gravity of the counterweight 18 is used to pull the cargo platform 10. The counterweight is lighter than the total weight of the cargo platform and the cargo. A wire rope is used to connect the cargo platform and the counterweight. The wire rope structure has a low cost. Increasing the counterweight can reduce the power of the reduction motor and achieve energy saving.

[0035] See also Figure 7 The front end of the upper crossbeam 2 is fixed with a polyurethane buffer limit device that limits the moving trajectory of the cargo platform. A lifting eye screw 14 is installed on the upper part of one side of the cargo platform 10. The wire rope 17 passes through the wire rope clamp 16 and is fixed to the upper part of the lifting eye screw 14. It is wound around the lower end of the upper crossbeam 2 through the wire rope pulley 15. The wire rope 17 extends to the inside of the wire rope pulley 15. The polyurethane buffer limit device limits the moving trajectory of the cargo platform 10 to ensure that the overall up and down movement of the cargo platform 10 remains stable.
