[0026] Advantageously, the chain includes chain links 16 hinged at both ends, with mounting plates 17 provided on the chain links 16 , and an intermediate rod 18 fixedly provided between the mounting plates 17 in the front and rear chains.

[0027] Advantageously, the loading device includes a box body 25, which is fixed to the middle rod 18, and an internal sliding cavity 36 is provided in the box body 25, a slide groove 23 is provided on one side of the internal sliding cavity 36, and an inner cavity 24 is provided on one side of the slide groove 23, a sliding box body 21 is provided to slide in the internal sliding cavity 36, an open loading cavity 31 is provided in the sliding box body 21, and the opening of the loading cavity 31 is away from the slide groove 23, and an elastic component is provided in the inner cavity 24 so that the sliding box body 21 can continue to be pulled to slide out of the internal sliding cavity 36 only after the elastic component is triggered after being pulled.

[0028] Advantageously, a plurality of plug-in rods 26 are provided at the bottom of the box body 25, and a plurality of mating seats 19 are provided on one side of the intermediate rod 18. The plug-in rods 26 are inserted into the mating seats 19 and fixed. The fixing method can be fixed by fasteners, specifically bolts and nuts, and through holes are provided in the mating seats 19 and the plug-in rods 26, so that the bolts pass through the through holes, and then the nuts are used to fix the bolts.

[0029] Advantageously, handles 22 are provided on the front and rear end surfaces of the sliding box 21 .

[0030] Advantageously, the elastic component includes a bottom block 41 arranged at the bottom of the sliding box 21, and end inclined surfaces 35 are provided on the front and rear sides of the bottom block 41. A shell 32 is provided on the left and right sides of the inner cavity 24, and an elastic slider 34 is provided to slide in the shell 32. A plurality of springs 33 are provided on one side of the elastic slider 34, and the springs 33 are elastically connected to the inside of the shell 32. A clamping groove 42 is provided on the left and right sides of the bottom block 41, and the elastic slider 34 is elastically pushed against the clamping groove 42 by the spring 33.

[0031] When the equipment is working, a loading device can be set on one side of the middle rod 18 according to actual needs, and the reduction motor 11 can be used to drive the rotating shaft 14 to rotate so that the chain can run continuously. The equipment is set between two floors, and the items on the upper and lower floors can be transferred through the loading device.

[0032] In specific application scenarios, it can be set between the warehouse and the workshop or between the workshops. When set between the warehouse and the workshop, it can be set as the outgoing material of the warehouse or the incoming material of the workshop; when set between the workshops, it can be set as the transfer of materials between the workshops.

[0033] When personnel take out the materials loaded in the box body 25, there are two situations. The first middle situation is when the box body 25 is located at the upper side of the equipment. At this time, the loading chamber 31 in the sliding box body 21 opens upwards, and the personnel pulls the slide slot 23 to slide the sliding box body 21 out of the internal sliding chamber 36. Since the loading chamber 31 is a box-type structure, but an open loading chamber 31 is provided inside, after the sliding box body 21 slides out, workpieces or tools can be loaded into the loading chamber 31; in the second situation, the box body 25 is transported downward to the lower position along the chain. At this time, the loading chamber 31 in the sliding box body 21 is set downward. At this time, the personnel moves by pulling the sliding box body 21. Since the loading chamber 31 opens downwards, the workpieces or tools in the loading chamber 31 can be dropped downwards. When receiving tools or workpieces, personnel need to set up a collection container. If necessary, soft structures such as buffer plates can also be provided to avoid damage to the workpieces or tools after falling down.

[0034] When a person pulls the sliding box 21, since a bottom block 41 is provided at the bottom of the sliding box 21, in the initial state, the elastic slider 34 is engaged with the engaging groove 42. The person needs to pull the sliding box 21 with force so that the bottom block 41 moves with the sliding box 21 and pushes the elastic slider 34, causing the elastic slider 34 to squeeze the spring 33. After the elastic slider 34 is completely disengaged from the engaging groove 42, the sliding box 21 can be slid out.

[0035] After the sliding box 21 is slid back into the internal sliding cavity 36, since the end inclined surfaces 35 are provided on the front and rear sides of the bottom block 41, the end inclined surfaces 35 abut against the engaging groove 42, and the elastic slider 34 can also be elastically slid into the shell 32 until the engaging groove 42 is opposite to the elastic slider 34, so that the spring 33 elastically pushes and then the elastic slider 34 abuts against the engaging groove 42 to engage.

[0036] The above is only a specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any changes or substitutions that are not conceived through creative work should be included in the protection scope of the present invention; therefore, the protection scope of the present invention should be based on the protection scope defined in the claims.
