The conveying and lifting worktable 2 is installed in front of the conveying worktable 1. A horizontal fixed frame 3 is installed on the upper wall of the conveying worktable 1, and a vertical fixed frame 4 is installed on the upper wall of the lifting worktable 2. The vertical fixed frame 4 has two sliding grooves 5 and a transmission hole 6. A transmission structure is installed in the transmission hole 6, and a vertical conveying structure is fitted on the transmission structure. A horizontal conveying structure is installed on the horizontal fixed frame 3.

[0023] Please see Figure 2 The transmission structure includes: a transmission shaft 7, a sprocket 8, two transmission boxes 9, and two support platforms 10; the transmission shaft 7 is installed in the transmission hole 6, the sprocket 8 is fitted on the transmission shaft 7, the two transmission boxes 9 are respectively connected to the two end faces of the transmission shaft 7, and the two support platforms 10 are respectively installed on the two sides of the vertical fixed frame 4 and connected to the bottom of the two transmission boxes 9.

[0024] Please see Figure 3The vertical conveying structure includes: two conveyor chains 11, four fixing buckles 12, a vertical conveying frame 13, two lifting platforms 14, two electric push rods 15, and two guide sleeves 16; the two conveyor chains 11 are respectively engaged with sprockets 8, the four fixing buckles 12 are respectively fixed to the front end of the two conveyor chains 11, the vertical conveying frame 13 is installed on the front wall of the four fixing buckles 12, the two lifting platforms 14 are installed on the front wall of the vertical conveying frame 13, the two electric push rods 15 are respectively installed on the upper wall of the two lifting platforms 14, and the two guide sleeves 16 are respectively fitted on the two lifting platforms 14 and connected to the two electric push rods 15.

[0025] Please see Figure 4 The horizontal conveying structure includes: three sets of chain conveyor belts 17, four support ribs 18, and two structural stabilizers 19; the three sets of chain conveyor belts 17 are respectively installed in the horizontal fixed frame 3, the four support ribs 18 are respectively connected to the horizontal fixed frame 3 and the conveying worktable 1, and the two structural stabilizers 19 are respectively installed in the horizontal fixed frame 3.

[0026] Please see Figure 3 The rear ends of the two conveyor chains 11 are connected to counterweights 20. When in use, the counterweights 20 can adjust the tension of the two conveyor chains 11 on the sprockets 8.

[0027] Please see Figure 3 The counterweight 20 and the vertical conveyor frame 13 are respectively equipped with auxiliary sliders 21. When in use, the counterweight 20 moves downward along the two slides 5 through the auxiliary sliders 21.

[0028] Please see Figure 1 Safety chamfers are provided on the edges of both the conveyor worktable 1 and the lifting worktable 2. During use, the safety chamfers can prevent operators from being scratched by the equipment.

[0029] In Example 1, in this example, two transmission boxes 9 drive sprockets 8 to rotate via transmission shafts 7. The sprockets 8 drive two transmission chains 11. When the two transmission chains 11 are in motion, the vertical conveyor frame 13 moves upward along the two slides 5 under the action of the auxiliary slider 21 via four fixing buckles 12.

[0030] Specifically, during vertical conveying, the two transmission boxes 9 drive the sprockets 8 to rotate via the transmission shaft 7. The sprockets 8 drive the two conveyor chains 11. When the two conveyor chains 11 are in motion, the vertical conveyor frame 13 moves upward along the two slides 5 under the action of the auxiliary slider 21 via the four fixing buckles 12. During this period, the two lifting platforms 14 move together with the vertical conveyor frame 13. At the same time, the counterweight 20 moves downward along the two slides 5 via the auxiliary slider 21. The counterweight 20 can adjust the tension of the two conveyor chains 11 on the sprockets 8. By setting the two transmission boxes 9, the two lifting platforms 14 can move up and down in a cyclic manner.

[0031] Example 2: In this example, among the three sets of chain conveyor belts 17, the middle layer of three sets of chain conveyor belts 17 runs in the opposite direction to the upper and lower two sets of three sets of chain conveyor belts 17. The middle layer is responsible for input, and the upper and lower two layers are responsible for output. It works in conjunction with the two lifting platforms 14 to achieve cyclic conveying.

[0032] Specifically, among the three sets of chain conveyor belts 17, the middle layer of three sets of chain conveyor belts 17 runs in the opposite direction to the upper and lower layers of three sets of chain conveyor belts 17. The middle layer is responsible for input, and the upper and lower layers are responsible for output. When the middle layer chain conveyor belt 17 transports goods, two electric push rods 15 drive two guide sleeves 16 to move forward along two lifting platforms 14, so that the goods fall on the upper guide sleeves 16. Then, the two electric push rods 15 drive the two guide sleeves 16 to reset, and the two lifting platforms 14 rise. When they are aligned with the upper and middle chain conveyor belts 17, the two guide sleeves 16 move forward, placing the goods from the upper guide sleeves 16 onto the upper chain conveyor belt 17. At the same time, the goods from the middle layer chain conveyor belt 17 are placed onto the lower lifting platform 14. Then, the two lifting platforms 14 move downward. The upper lifting platform 14 receives the goods, and the lower lifting platform 14 places the goods onto the lower chain conveyor belt 17, and so on.
