[0035] Among them, the first electric slider 7 is installed on both sides of the lower surface of the electric clamp 14, and the first electric slider 7 is in a perpendicular state to the second electric slider 8. The first guide rails 3 are fixed on both sides of the upper surface of the fixed plate 1 corresponding to the first electric slider 7, and the fixed plate 1 can fix and limit the first guide rails 3; the first guide rails 3 are in a horizontal state, and the first electric sliders 7 are slidingly connected with the corresponding first guide rails 3 in the horizontal direction. The second guide rails 4 are fixed on both ends of the upper surface of the movable plate 10 corresponding to the second electric slider 8, and the first guide rails 3 help to limit the first electric slider 7.

[0036] The second guide rails 4 are perpendicular to the first guide rails 3, and the second electric sliders 8 are slidably connected to the corresponding second guide rails 4 in the horizontal direction, and the second guide rails 4 help to limit the second electric slider 8; the second guide rails 4 are horizontal, and the second guide rails 4 are matched with the fourth guide rails 6, and the matching between the second guide rails 4 and the fourth guide rails 6 facilitates the second electric slider 8 to move onto the fourth guide rail 6; the connecting plates 11 are vertical, and the third guide rails 5 are fixed in the middle of the opposite surfaces of the connecting plates 11, and the third guide rails 5 are vertical, and the connecting plates 11 can fix and limit the third guide rails 5.

[0037] The third electric sliders 9 are installed on the two end surfaces of the connecting block 12 corresponding to the third guide rails 5. The third electric sliders 9 are slidably connected to the corresponding third guide rails 5 along the vertical direction. The third guide rails 5 help to limit the third electric sliders 9; the hydraulic cylinder 13 is in a horizontal state, and a matching retention hole 15 is opened in the middle part of the connecting block 12 corresponding to the output rod of the hydraulic cylinder 13. The retention hole 15 runs through the two side surfaces of the middle part of the connecting block 12, and the retention hole 15 on the connecting block 12 helps to limit the output rod of the hydraulic cylinder 13.

[0038] The working principle of the utility model is: during use, the lower surfaces of the fixing plate 1 and the fixing block 2 are made to correspond to the positions where the outside world needs to be installed, so that the lower surfaces of the fixing plate 1 and the fixing block 2 are matched and fitted with the positions where the outside world needs to be installed, and the external shelves are assembled between adjacent fixing blocks 2, and the fixing plate 1 and the fixing block 2 are further installed between the positions where the outside world needs to be installed, so as to facilitate the stable use of the fixing plate 1 and the fixing block 2, the fixing plate 1 can support and limit the various components assembled on the fixing plate 1, which is helpful for the stable use of the various components assembled on the fixing plate 1, and the fixing block 2 can support and limit the various components assembled on the fixing block 2, which is convenient for the stable use of the various components assembled on the fixing block 2.

[0039] When storing or taking out items on different shelves, it is necessary to move the second electric slider 8 in the horizontal direction to correspond to the fourth guide rail 6 on the fixed block 2 corresponding to the shelf, and open the first electric slider 7 on the first guide rail 3. When the first electric slider 7 is opened, the first electric slider 7 will move in the horizontal direction along the first guide rail 3. The fixed plate 1 can limit the first electric slider 7 through the first guide rail 3, which is helpful to stably move the first electric slider 7.

[0041] When it is necessary to store or take out items at different heights on the shelf, the third electric slider 9 on the third guide rail 5 is opened. When the third electric slider 9 is in the open state, the third electric slider 9 will move in the vertical direction along the third guide rail 5. When the third electric slider 9 moves in the vertical direction, it can drive the hydraulic cylinder 13 and the electric clamp 14 to move in the vertical direction through the connecting block 12, so as to adjust the height of the electric clamp 14. After the height of the electric clamp 14 is adjusted to match the height of the items that need to be stored or taken out on the shelf, the hydraulic cylinder 13 is opened. When the hydraulic cylinder 13 is in the open state, the output rod of the hydraulic cylinder 13 will move horizontally along the retention hole 15 on the connecting block 12. The output rod of the hydraulic cylinder 13 can drive the electric clamp 14 to move toward the shelf, and further clamp and take out the items on the shelf through the electric clamp 14, or cancel the clamping to store and place the items, so as to store or take out the items on the shelf.

[0042] During use, the shuttle machine helps to store and retrieve goods at different heights on the shelves. When goods at different heights on the shelves need to be stored and retrieved, it is convenient to save manpower and material resources, and no external device is required to store and retrieve the goods on the shelves, which helps to store and retrieve goods at different heights on the shelves, so as to facilitate the use of the shuttle machine.
