Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of lifting devices and relates to an automatic lifting device suitable for use in a vacuum-sealed environment. Background Art

[0002] The existing lifting platforms mainly include single-screw lifting platforms, double-screw lifting platforms and scissor-type lifting platforms. Single-screw lifting platforms drive the platform up and down by driving the single screw to rotate forward and backward; double-screw lifting platforms drive the platform up and down by driving the two screws to rotate forward and backward at the same time; scissor-type lifting platforms adopt a double scissor-type structure and are driven to rise and fall by hydraulic cylinders. These lifting platforms are mainly used under atmospheric pressure.

[0003] In current domestic research, automatic lifting platforms in vacuum-sealed environments play a vital role. The automatic lifting platform can achieve precise height adjustment without destroying the vacuum environment, ensuring that experimental equipment or production tools can accurately reach the predetermined position. The automatic lifting platform effectively prevents outside air from entering the vacuum environment through a good sealing design, maintains the stability of the vacuum degree, and the reliable sealing performance of the automatic lifting platform ensures the smooth progress of the experiment. At the same time, operators can debug and maintain equipment without destroying the vacuum environment, greatly improving work efficiency. Since the risks brought by frequent destruction of the vacuum environment, such as equipment damage and personal injury caused by vacuum leakage, are avoided, work safety is also improved. However, if these existing devices are used directly in a vacuum environment, the single-screw lifting platform and the double-screw lifting platform have the following problems:

[0004] The friction between the screw and the nut is large, which is prone to wear after long-term operation, resulting in poor sealing and is not suitable for vacuum-sealed working environments;

[0005] (2) The transmission efficiency is relatively low, which limits the operating speed of the lifting platform. In some situations where rapid lifting is required, it may not meet the requirements of production efficiency.

[0006] (3) Low positioning accuracy. Due to the limitations of its structure and transmission mode, it is often difficult to achieve high-precision positioning accuracy. At the same time, other devices are required to achieve self-locking.

[0007] (4) During operation, the single screw is prone to vibration and impact, which may affect the stability of the platform;

[0008] (5) Poor environmental adaptability. The screw thread has high requirements for the working environment. Under harsh environmental conditions, it is prone to corrosion and damage, which affects the service life of the equipment.

[0009] Scissor-type lifting platforms have poor stability due to their structural limitations and are difficult to seal. Utility Model Content

[0016] Two self-locking screws are arranged inside the bracket, and the two self-locking screws are respectively located on the opposite ends of the jacking mounting plate.

[0017] The driven gear connected to the two self-locking screws is connected to the driving gear through the same transmission gear.

[0018] Three lifting shafts are installed between the lifting installation plate and the loading platform, and the midpoints of the three lifting shafts are distributed in a regular triangle.

[0019] Two sections of sealing bellows are provided on the outside of each lifting shaft, one section is located inside the bracket, and the other section is located between the bracket and the loading platform.
