DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0026] The following is a further detailed description of the present invention in conjunction with specific embodiments:

[0027] A vertical lifting device for material transportation is used to lift materials at a first working position at a lower location to a second working position at a higher location.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, it includes a storage bin 1 and a discharge bin 2 respectively installed at the first station and the second station. Among them, the bottom end of the storage bin 1 is provided with an opening, and a guide trough 3 is provided at the opening, and the material in the storage bin 1 slides into the guide trough 3. The guide trough 3 is inclined, with an angle of 15° with the horizontal plane, and the end away from the storage bin 1 is set as an outlet end with a lower height, and a vibration device 5 installed on a base 4 is provided below the guide trough 3, and the material in the guide trough 3 slides toward the outlet end driven by the vibration device 5.

[0029] Side plates 41 (one of which is hidden) are fixed on both sides of the base 4. A baffle 6 is hinged on the side plate 41 at a position corresponding to the outlet end. The baffle 6 is connected to the material guide trough 3 through a traction member 7 to stop the material in the material guide trough 3.

[0030] Specifically, the traction member 7 can be an elastic member such as a spring or a rubber band. One end of the traction member 7 is connected to the material guide trough 3, and the other end is connected to the end of the baffle 6 away from the hinge end. Through its own elasticity, the baffle 6 closes the outlet end of the material guide trough 3 without external force to prevent the internal material from scattering.

[0031] The transport bin 8 is driven by the lifting mechanism 9 to circulate between the first station and the second station so as to transfer the materials from the storage bin 1 to the discharge bin 2 .

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the lifting mechanism 9 includes a frame 91 fixed on the base 4 in the vertical direction, the inner wall of the frame 91 is laid with a guide rail in the vertical direction and a lifting carrier 92 is arranged in conjunction with the guide rail, the transport bin 8 is carried on the lifting carrier 92, and a driving motor 93 is installed on the top of the frame 91. The execution end of the driving motor 93 is connected to the lifting carrier 92 through a double-speed chain (not shown), and the transport bin 8 is carried to circulate between the first station and the second station.

[0033] like Figure 3As shown, the adjacent sections of the lifting carrier 92 and the baffle 6 are respectively provided with abutting portions and abutted portions. In this embodiment, the abutting portion is set as a push rod 921 extending toward the baffle 6 on the transport bin 8, and the abutted portion is set as a cross bar 61 fixed on the baffle 6 perpendicular to the push rod 921. When the lifting carrier 92 carrying the transport bin 8 descends from the second station to the first station, the push rod 921 abuts against the cross bar 61, so that the cross bar 61 slides on the push rod 921 while overcoming the traction force of the traction member 7, thereby driving the baffle 6 to flip around the hinged end, so that the material in the guide trough 3 flows into the transport bin 8 through the baffle 6, and the loading action of the transport bin 8 is realized.

[0034] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the transport bin 8 realizes the unloading action of conveying the material into the discharge bin 2 through the guide unloading mechanism. The guide unloading mechanism includes a guide block 21 fixed to the inner wall of the discharge bin 2, and a guide groove 81 is provided on the transport bin 8 corresponding to the guide groove 81. When the transport bin 8 enters the second station, the guide block 21 enters the guide groove 81. At this time, the lifting carrier 92 continues to lift upward, so that the transport bin 8 rotates around the hinged end with the lifting carrier under the joint action of the guide unloading mechanism and the lifting mechanism 9, and tilts downward to dump the material inside into the discharge bin 2, realizing the unloading action.

[0035] When working:

[0036] 1. Taking the case where the initial position of the transport bin 8 is at the second station as an example, the transport bin 8 is lowered to the first station under the action of the lifting mechanism 9. Figure 3 As shown, in the first station, the push rod 921 on the lifting carrier 92 abuts against the cross bar 61 on the baffle 6, driving the baffle 6 to flip and open.

[0037] 2. Start the vibration device 5 to pour the material in the storage bin 1 through the guide chute 3 and the opened baffle 6 into the transport bin 8.

[0038] 3. The lifting mechanism 9 lifts the transport bin 8 toward the second station. In this process, the baffle 6 is reset under the action of the traction member 7 to close the outlet of the guide trough 3.

[0039] 4. If Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, when the transport bin 8 enters the second workstation, the guide block 21 thereon enters the guide groove 81 on the inner wall of the discharge bin 2. At this time, the lifting vehicle 92 continues to move upward, so that the transport bin 8 rotates around the hinged end with the lifting vehicle under the joint action of the guide unloading mechanism and the lifting mechanism 9, and tilts downward to dump the internal material into the discharge bin 2.

For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the utility model is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and the utility model can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic features of the utility model. Therefore, no matter from which point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive.
