[0002] With societal progress and business development, new demands have been placed on the efficiency and stability of existing logistics warehousing, necessitating the use of palletizing machines. Palletizing machines, also known as stacking cranes, are the most important lifting and transportation equipment in automated warehouses.

[0003] Currently, existing stacker cranes typically stack goods using transport racks. Therefore, different transport racks need to be used for goods of different sizes, or complex adjustments need to be made to the transport racks, resulting in poor applicability. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a cargo stacker compatible with various sizes of goods, aiming to solve the problem that existing cargo stackers typically stack goods using cargo transport racks, which requires changing different transport racks or making complex adjustments to the transport racks for goods of different sizes, resulting in poor applicability.

[0008] The clamping structure includes an electric telescopic cylinder, an assembly, and grippers. The electric telescopic cylinder is fixedly connected to the clamping frame and located on one side of the clamping frame. The assembly is fixedly connected to the output end of the electric telescopic cylinder and located on one side of the electric telescopic cylinder.
