Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of stacker crane technology, and in particular to a lifting device for a stacker crane and its assembly structure. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of modern intelligent warehousing technology, automated logistics systems with stacker cranes as the core equipment have emerged. This technology integrates high-precision positioning, multi-dimensional motion control and intelligent scheduling algorithms to achieve efficient coordination of operations such as goods entering and leaving the warehouse, sorting and turnover, and thus gives rise to vertical handling execution mechanisms with lifting device components as the core.

[0003] In related technologies, traditional hoisting device designs employ a support-driven drive system, using an interference fit between the shaft hole and a locking disc to achieve structural fixation. The drive shaft end relies on a mounted bearing for radial constraint, and the overall architecture is assembled from standardized purchased components. This design mode meets basic functional requirements through modular configuration and has the advantage of rapid deployment.

[0004] However, the aforementioned standardized design still faces technical bottlenecks:

[0005] First, the interference fit between the support shaft hole and the locking plate makes the assembly accuracy extremely sensitive to machining tolerances, making disassembly difficult and easily causing structural damage during later maintenance.

[0006] Second, the rigid constraint of mounted bearings, under long-term dynamic load, may lead to wear failure of the drive shaft due to the cumulative effect of radial runout, and may even cause shaft breakage under extreme working conditions.

[0007] Third, while the integration solution of purchasing components from multiple vendors reduces the manufacturing cost of individual units, the adaptation losses and redundant designs caused by differences in interface standards actually increase the total life cycle cost of the system.

[0008] Therefore, the reliability defects and cost optimization issues of the aforementioned core components remain unresolved. Utility Model Content

[0009] In response to the shortcomings of the existing production technology, the applicant provides a lifting device and its assembly structure for a stacker crane, thereby avoiding interference fit between the shaft hole and the locking plate, and making it easier for inspectors to observe the internal operation of the lifting device components, thus facilitating maintenance.

[0010] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:

[0011] A lifting device for a stacker crane, comprising:

[0012] Lifting components and supports;

[0013] The lifting assembly includes a lifting reduction motor;

[0014] The lifting reduction motor is connected to the drive shaft via a locking disc;

[0015] The drive shaft is sequentially configured along the axial direction with a synchronous pulley, a flat key, a spacer, a first oil retainer ring, a bearing, a second oil retainer ring, and a washer.

[0016] The synchronous pulley is located on the opposite side of the locking disc from the lifting reduction motor;

[0017] The spacer is mounted on the drive shaft and is in close contact with the side of the timing pulley;

[0018] The first oil baffle is mounted on the drive shaft and is in close contact with the spacer.

[0024] In one embodiment, the upper end of the support is provided with a notch, the shape of which matches the contour of the locking disc, in order to avoid the locking disc from being sucked together due to interference fit between the mounting surface of the support.

[0025] In one embodiment, the inner hole of the bearing flange mates with the outer ring of the bearing and is fixed by the bearing outer ring pressure plate; the mounting surface of the bearing flange and the mounting surface of the support are connected by bolts.

[0026] In one embodiment, the timing pulley is fixed to the drive shaft by a flat key, and the spacer is in close contact with the side of the timing pulley to limit axial displacement.

[0027] In one embodiment, the first oil baffle and the second oil baffle are located on both sides of the bearing and are pressed together by washers to form a sealing structure.

[0028] In one embodiment, the brass grease fitting is mounted on the side of the bearing flange for injecting lubricant into the bearing.

[0029] On the other hand, this utility model also provides an assembly structure for a lifting device for a stacker crane, including the above-mentioned lifting device and a dust cover;

[0030] The support is fixed to the lower crossbeam of the stacker crane;

[0031] The lifting assembly is connected to the support via a bearing flange and is capable of rotating about the drive shaft axis.

[0032] In one embodiment, the dust cover covers the exterior of the lifting assembly.

[0033] In one embodiment, the dust cover is detachably mounted on the support and covers the lifting assembly to provide dust protection and safety shielding.

[0034] In one embodiment, the mounting surface of the support and the locking disc are connected by bolts, and the mounting position of the locking disc corresponds to the notch of the support to facilitate disassembly and maintenance.

[0035] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0036] This utility model has a compact structure and replaces the traditional mounted bearing with a bearing flange: the inner hole of the bearing flange fits with the outer ring of the bearing, and is fixed by the bearing outer ring pressure plate, which can avoid shaft breakage and wear; at the same time, the notch at the upper end of the support is adapted to the contour of the locking plate, eliminating the interference fit problem during disassembly and shortening maintenance time.

[0037] This utility model also has the following advantages:

[0039] (2) The synchronous pulley of this utility model is fixed to the drive shaft by a flat key, the spacer limits the axial displacement, and the shaft end pressure plate strengthens the shaft end to ensure transmission stability.

[0040] (3) The dust cover of this utility model can be detachably configured on the support and cover the lifting assembly to achieve dust prevention and safety shielding, and reduce the failure rate. Attached Figure Description

[0053] like Figures 1-3The accompanying drawing shows a structural schematic diagram of a lifting device for a stacker crane according to an embodiment of the present invention; for ease of description, the drawing only shows the structure related to the embodiment of the present invention.

[0054] In this embodiment, a lifting device for a stacker crane is provided, including a lifting assembly 100;

[0055] Furthermore, the lifting assembly 100 includes a lifting reduction motor 1, a locking disc 2, a drive shaft 3, and transmission components;

[0056] The output end of the lifting gear motor 1 is fixedly connected to the drive shaft 3 through the locking plate 2. The locking plate 2 is fastened with bolts to ensure the reliability of power transmission.

[0057] Among them, the following components are assembled sequentially along the axial direction on drive shaft 3:

[0058] Synchronous pulley 4: is fixed to drive shaft 3 via flat key 5 to achieve power transmission;

[0059] Spacer 6: It fits tightly against the right end face of the timing pulley 4, restricting its axial displacement;

[0060] First oil baffle ring 7: It is set tightly against the spacer 6 to form a sealing structure with subsequent components;

[0061] Bearing 8: Installed close to the first oil retainer ring 7, with the outer ring of bearing 8 fitting into the inner hole of bearing flange 9;

[0065] In this embodiment, a brass grease nipple 14 is installed on the side of the bearing flange 9 for injecting lubricant into the bearing 8 to extend its service life.

[0066] Please continue reading. Figure 3 In this embodiment, the upper end of the support 200 is provided with a notch, the shape of which matches the contour of the locking disc 2 to avoid suction caused by interference fit during installation.
