[0023] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this utility model.

[0024] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 6 As shown:

[0025] Example 1: This utility model provides a suspended transport container, including a transport vehicle 1, a support plate 2 is provided below the transport vehicle 1, and an adjustment plate 3 is symmetrically provided above the support plate 2. The adjustment plate 3 is movably connected to the support plate 2, and a fixing frame 4 is fixedly installed on both sides of the support plate 2. The fixing frame 4 is provided with a sliding hole 5 inside.

[0026] It also includes a bidirectional lead screw 6, which is installed in the fixed frame 4. Each fixed frame 4 has an externally powered motor 7 on one side. The output shaft of the motor 7 is connected to the bidirectional lead screw 6. Each bidirectional lead screw 6 is symmetrically provided with a movable drive block 8. The drive block 8 passes through the sliding hole 5 and is connected to the adjustment plate 3. A connecting component is provided between the bottom of the transport vehicle 1 and the top of the fixed frame 4.

[0027] It should be noted that by installing a bearing plate 2 below the transport vehicle 1, and symmetrically sliding an adjusting plate 3 above the bearing plate 2, the bearing plate 2 and the adjusting plate 3 together form a material conveying container. The material can be placed on the bearing plate 2 and the adjusting plate 3 and transported by the transport vehicle 1. When encountering materials of different shapes, the motor 7 can be started, which will drive the bidirectional lead screw 6 to rotate, causing the block 8 and the adjusting plate 3 to slide in the sliding hole 5, thereby causing the two adjusting plates 3 to move in opposite directions, increasing the overall material bearing area. This allows for flexible adjustment according to materials of different volumes, improving the efficiency of material conveying.

[0028] In this embodiment, anti-slip strips 9 are symmetrically distributed at intervals on the top of the bearing plate 2 and the adjustment plate 3, and buffer strips 10 are provided on the opposite surfaces of the two adjustment plates 3. The buffer strips 10 are components made of foam material.

[0029] It should be noted that by installing anti-slip strips 9 on the top of the bearing plate 2 and the adjusting plate 3, the friction force after the material comes into contact with the bearing plate 2 and the adjusting plate 3 can be increased, thus preventing the material from sliding during transportation and improving the safety of transportation.

[0030] A buffer strip 10 is provided on the opposite side of the two adjustment plates 3 so that when the two adjustment plates 3 approach each other, the buffer strip 10 will eventually come into contact with each other, thus preventing the two adjustment plates 3 from colliding directly and causing damage to the adjustment plates 3.

[0031] In this embodiment, the top of the support plate 2 and near both sides are provided with downward mounting grooves 11. A strip guide rail 12 is fixedly installed in the mounting groove 11. Each adjustment plate 3 is provided with a mating block 13 symmetrically at the bottom. The mating block 13 and the strip guide rail 12 cooperate with each other.

[0032] It should be noted that the strip guide 12 is set in the mounting groove 11, which can hide the strip guide 12, thereby reducing the gap between the bearing plate 2 and the adjustment plate 3. The cooperation block 13 cooperates with the strip guide 12 to make the adjustment plate 3 move more smoothly and avoid jamming.

[0033] In this embodiment, the top of the back end of the adjusting plate 3 is provided with a guard plate 14, and the inside of the driving block 8 is provided with a fixedly connected ball nut 15. The ball nut 15 cooperates with the bidirectional lead screw 6. The middle part of the bidirectional lead screw 6 is provided with a positioning plate 16, and one side of the positioning plate 16 is fixedly connected to the fixing frame 4.

[0034] It should be noted that by setting a guardrail 14 on the adjusting plate 3, the guardrail 14 can block the material at the edge after the material is placed on the adjusting plate 3 or the bearing plate 2, thus preventing the material from falling during transportation and improving transportation safety. By setting a positioning plate 16 in the middle of the bidirectional lead screw 6, the bidirectional lead screw 6 can rotate within the positioning plate 16, which improves the stability of the movement of the bidirectional lead screw 6.

[0035] In this embodiment, the connecting assembly includes a mounting post 17, a guide post 18, a connecting post 19, and fastening bolts 20. The mounting post 17 is symmetrically fixedly connected to the bottom of the transport vehicle 1. The bottom of the mounting post 17 is provided with a guide groove 21. The vertical cross section of the guide groove 21 is "T" shaped. The guide post 18 is movably connected in the guide groove 21 and cooperates with it. The length of the guide post 18 is the same as the length of the guide groove 21.

[0036] In this embodiment, fastening bolts 20 are spaced apart on the outer wall of mounting post 17. After guide post 18 is inserted into guide groove 21, fastening bolts 20 are locked into guide post 18. Connecting posts 19 are spaced apart at the bottom of guide post 18, and the bottom of connecting post 19 is fixedly connected to the top of fixing frame 4.

[0037] It should be noted that, through the designed connecting components, the mounting column 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the transport vehicle 1, and the guide column 18 can be inserted into the guide groove 21 from one end and slide therein. The length of the guide column 18 is designed to be consistent with the guide groove 21, so that when the guide column 18 is fully inserted into the guide groove 21, the fastening bolt 20 can be locked in the hole opened on the guide column 18, thereby realizing the installation of the transport vehicle 1 and the transport container. Moreover, it can be quickly disassembled when no longer needed, which is efficient and convenient.

[0038] In the above embodiment, a hoist trolley is installed inside the transport vehicle 1. The transport vehicle 1 is installed on a track, and its movement on the transport track can be automated through electronic control. In the initial state, the two adjusting plates 3 are attached together above the bearing plate 2. When the material is small in volume, it can be placed directly on the two adjusting plates 3 and transported by the transport vehicle 1. When encountering materials of different volumes or a large quantity of materials, the two motors 7 are started. The motors 7 are connected to the bidirectional lead screw 6 and drive it to rotate. The bidirectional lead screw 6 has ball nuts 15, which are fixedly connected to the driving block 8, causing the driving block 8 to move in the sliding hole 5. The other end of the driving block 8 is fixedly connected to the adjusting plate 3. The mating block 13 at the bottom of the adjusting plate 3 slides on the strip guide rail 12. The two adjusting plates 3 move away from each other, gradually exposing the bearing plate 2. When adjusted to a suitable position, the material can be placed on the adjusting plate 3 and the bearing plate 2. This allows for flexible adjustment according to different volumes of materials, improving the efficiency of material conveying.

[0039] The embodiments of this utility model are given for the purpose of illustration and description. Although embodiments of this utility model have been shown and described above, it is understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the utility model. Those skilled in the art can make changes, modifications, substitutions and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of this utility model.
