Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of stacking equipment technology, specifically relating to a stacking machine with a cable guiding structure. Background Technology

[0002] Cables are required during the use of stacking equipment. These cables move up and down with the lifting mechanism, and are typically suspended to facilitate this movement. However, the cables are prone to swaying during this process, frequently causing them to be pulled by the lifting mechanism. Therefore, a stacker crane with a cable guiding structure was designed to solve this problem.

[0003] It should be noted that the above introduction to the technical background is only for the purpose of providing a clear and complete explanation of the technical solutions of this utility model and facilitating understanding by those skilled in the art. It should not be assumed that these technical solutions are known to those skilled in the art simply because they have been described in the background section of this utility model. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a stacker machine with a cable guiding structure.

[0005] To achieve the above and other related objectives, the technical solution provided by this utility model is: a stacker crane with a cable guiding structure, comprising:

[0006] The mounting bracket has a vertical fixing frame; the fixing frame is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket.

[0007] A lifting body, which is vertically movable and mounted on the mounting bracket;

[0008] The cable is located on one side of the lifting body and is vertically mounted on the mounting bracket;

[0009] A motion frame is mounted vertically on the mounting bracket, and one end of the cable passes through the motion frame and is connected to the lifting body. In this design, as the lifting body rises, one end of the cable rises with it, and the cable lifts the motion frame together. The upward movement of the cable provides guidance, avoiding the swaying problem of the cable in the suspended state and solving the problem of the lifting mechanism frequently pulling on the cable during vertical movement.

[0010] Furthermore, the motion frame includes a movable seat that is vertically movable on the fixed frame. The movable seat contains rotatable guide wheels. One end of the cable passes around the guide wheels. Two rows of rolling wheels are arranged on the side of the movable seat closest to the fixed frame, and these two rows of wheels abut against both sides of the fixed frame in the width direction. In this design, the rolling wheels can carry the motion frame vertically back and forth on the fixed frame during the lifting motion of the lifting body. Simultaneously, the guide wheels guide the movement of the cable, improving the stability of the motion.

[0011] Furthermore, an adapter is fixed to the side of the lifting body near the moving frame. The adapter is positioned higher than the moving frame, and one end of the cable is fixedly connected to the adapter. In this design, the cable first passes from top to bottom around one side of the guide wheel to the lower end of the guide wheel, and then extends from the other side of the guide wheel from bottom to top before connecting to the adapter. The adapter facilitates the installation and connection of the cable.

[0012] Furthermore, a railing is provided below the guide wheel, and the railing is fixed to the movable base. In this design, the railing can provide a certain degree of restraint for cables that pass around the guide wheel.

[0013] Furthermore, the mounting bracket includes a first horizontal beam, a second horizontal beam, a first vertical beam, and a second vertical beam. The first and second horizontal beams are horizontally aligned and vertically corresponding. The first and second vertical beams are of equal length and vertically fixed between the first and second horizontal beams. The lifting body is positioned between the first and second vertical beams. In this design, the lengths of the first and second vertical beams are set according to the required stacking height. Both the first and second horizontal beams have structures that allow them to be connected and installed with the stacking equipment. However, the connection structure is not a primary improvement protected by this patent and will not be elaborated upon here.

[0014] Furthermore, the lifting body includes a base; a mounting seat 1 is fixed to the side of the base near the first vertical beam; a mounting seat 2 is fixed to the side of the base near the second vertical beam, and the adapter seat is fixed to the mounting seat 2. Two rows of moving wheels are arranged on the side of the mounting seat 2 near the second vertical beam, with the two rows of moving wheels located on both sides of the second vertical beam and pressing against it. In this design, when the lifting body moves up and down, the moving wheels roll on the second vertical beam. Each row of moving wheels has two or more wheels to ensure stable operation.

[0015] Furthermore, mounting plates are fixed to both sides of the mounting base one. The two mounting plates are located on both sides of the vertical beam one and are parallel to the vertical beam one. A vertical rail is provided on the vertical beam one corresponding to the position of each mounting plate. The mounting plates are connected to the corresponding vertical rails via sliders. In this design, connecting the mounting plates to the vertical rails on the vertical beam one improves the straightness of the lifting body's vertical movement and enhances its motion accuracy.

[0016] Furthermore, a cable clamp is provided on the second vertical beam. The cable clamp holds the other end of the cable. The cable clamp includes a mounting post fixed to the second vertical beam and a pressure plate located outside the cable. The pressure plate locks the cable onto the mounting post using fasteners. In this design, the cable clamp serves to fix the other end of the cable.

[0017] Furthermore, a protective railing is provided at the upper end of the base. In this design, the protective railing can protect the materials on the lifting body.

[0018] Furthermore, the lower end of the mounting bracket is slidably mounted on a horizontal track. In this design, the mounting bracket can move back and forth on the horizontal track, facilitating the adjustment of its horizontal position.

[0019] Due to the application of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model compared with the prior art are as follows:

[0020] This utility model designs a stacker crane with a cable guiding structure. By adding an auxiliary structure to the stacking equipment, the cable is routed around the moving frame and then connected to the lifting body, which guides the movement of the cable. This allows the cable to move stably in the suspended state, avoiding frequent swaying of the cable and solving the problem of the lifting mechanism frequently pulling on the cable during up and down movement.

[0038] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more definite definition of the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0039] Example:

[0040] This embodiment provides a stacker crane with a cable guiding structure, including:

[0041] Mounting bracket 2, see appendix Figure 1 and attached Figure 2 As shown, a vertical fixing frame 25 is provided on the mounting bracket 2; the fixing frame 25 is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 2. The mounting bracket 2 includes a first horizontal beam 21, a second horizontal beam 22, a first vertical beam 23, and a second vertical beam 24. The first horizontal beam 21 and the second horizontal beam 22 are both horizontally arranged and vertically corresponding. The first vertical beam 23 and the second vertical beam 24 are of equal length and vertically fixed between the first horizontal beam 21 and the second horizontal beam 22. The lifting body 3 is arranged between the first vertical beam 23 and the second vertical beam 24. The lengths of the first vertical beam 23 and the second vertical beam 24 are set according to the required stacking height. The first horizontal beam 21 and the second vertical beam 22 are both provided with structures that can be connected and installed with stacking equipment. The connection structure is not the main improvement point that this patent needs to protect, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0042] Lifting body 3, see appendix Figure 1 and attached Figure 3As shown, the lifting body 3 is mounted on the mounting bracket 2 in a vertically movable manner; how the lifting body 3 on the stacking equipment achieves vertical movement through the driving device is existing technology, and the driving structure is not the main improvement point that this patent needs to protect, so this patent will not elaborate on it.

[0043] The lifting body 3 includes a base 31; a guardrail 36 is provided at the upper end of the base 31. The guardrail 36 can protect the materials on the lifting body 3. A mounting seat 32 is fixed to the side of the base 31 near the vertical beam 23; a mounting seat 33 is fixed to the side of the base 31 near the vertical beam 24. An adapter seat 37 is fixed to the mounting seat 33. Two rows of moving wheels 34 are provided on the side of the mounting seat 33 near the vertical beam 24. The two rows of moving wheels 34 are located on both sides of the vertical beam 24 and are pressed against the vertical beam 24. When the lifting body 3 moves up and down, the moving wheels 34 roll on the vertical beam 24. The number of moving wheels 34 in each row is greater than or equal to two to ensure stable operation.

[0044] Mounting plates 35 are fixed to both sides of mounting base 32. The two mounting plates 35 are located on both sides of vertical beam 23 and are parallel to vertical beam 23. A vertical rail 26 is provided on vertical beam 23 at the position corresponding to the mounting plate 35. The mounting plate 35 is connected to the corresponding vertical rail 26 via a slider. Connecting the mounting plate 35 to the vertical rail 26 on vertical beam 23 improves the linearity of the lifting body 3's vertical movement and enhances its motion accuracy. The mounting plates 35 also provide protection, protecting the internal structure (e.g., cable 1) and preventing oil splashes (in case of lubricating oil spillage). The width of both mounting plates 35 is greater than the distance from mounting base 32 to vertical beam 23, ensuring proper installation and protection.

[0045] Cable 1, see appendix Figure 1 and attached Figure 4 As shown, cable 1 is located on one side of the lifting body 3 and is vertically mounted on the mounting bracket 2; cable 1 is a flat cable and is made of PC / ABS plastic.

[0046] Exercise rack 4, see appendix Figure 4 and attached Figure 5 As shown, the motion frame 4 is mounted on the mounting bracket 2 in a vertically movable manner. One end (end A) of the cable 1 passes through the motion frame 4 and is connected to the lifting body 3. The end (end A) of the cable 1 passing through the motion frame 4 is the moving end, which is connected to the drive device on the lifting body 3. The height of the moving end of the cable 1 rises and falls with the movement of the lifting body 3. The other end (end B) of the cable 1 is the fixed end, which is mounted on the mounting bracket 2 and connected to the power supply.

[0047] The motion frame 4 includes a movable seat 41 that is vertically movable on a fixed frame 25. The movable seat 41 contains rotatable guide wheels 42. One end of the cable 1 (end A) passes over the guide wheels 42. Two rows of rolling wheels 43 are located on the side of the movable seat 41 closest to the fixed frame 25. These two rows of wheels 34 are respectively positioned on both sides of the fixed frame 25 in the width direction and can roll back and forth along the length direction of the fixed frame 25. The rolling wheels 43 can carry the motion frame 4 vertically back and forth on the fixed frame 25 during the lifting movement of the lifting body 3. Simultaneously, the guide wheels 42 guide the movement of the cable 1, improving stability. A railing 44 is located below the guide wheels 42 and is fixed to the movable seat 41. The railing 44 provides a certain degree of restraint for the cable 1 passing over the guide wheels 42.

[0048] See appendix Figure 4 and attached Figure 5 As shown, an adapter 37 is fixed on the side of the lifting body 3 near the moving frame 4. The adapter 37 is set higher than the moving frame 4, and one end (end A) of the cable 1 is fixedly connected to the adapter 37. The cable 1 first goes from top to bottom around one side of the guide wheel 42 to the lower end of the guide wheel 42, and then extends from the other side of the guide wheel 42 from bottom to top before connecting to the adapter 37. The adapter 37 is designed to facilitate the installation and connection of the cable 1.

[0049] See appendix Figure 1 and attached Figure 6 As shown, a cable clamp 5 is installed on the second vertical beam 24. The cable clamp 5 is designed to hold the other end (B end) of the cable 1. The cable clamp 5 includes a mounting post 51 fixed on the second vertical beam 24 and a pressure plate 52 located on the outside of the cable 1. The pressure plate 52 locks the cable 1 to the mounting post 51 with fasteners. The cable clamp 5 serves to fix the other end of the cable 1. Here, the other end (B end) of the cable 1 refers to its fixed section on the second vertical beam 24, not its physical end. After the cable 1 is fixed at this point, it will be bent downwards to connect to the power supply. The downwardly bent portion of the cable 1 is usually located inside the second vertical beam 24, so from the outside, the fixed position looks like an end of the cable 1.

[0050] See appendix Figure 1 As shown, the lower end of the mounting bracket 2 is mounted on a horizontal track 6, which can move left and right. The mounting bracket 2 can move back and forth on the horizontal track 6, facilitating the adjustment of the horizontal position of the mounting bracket 2.

[0051] As the lifting body 3 rises, one end of the cable 1 rises along with it, and the cable 1 carries the motion frame 4 up with it. The upward movement of one end of the cable 1 serves as a guide. When the lifting body 3 descends, one end of the cable 1 (end A) descends, and the motion frame 4 descends slowly under its own weight. The distance of descent is limited by the position of the cable 1, which is equivalent to a "follow-up" state. This avoids the cable 1 swaying due to following up when suspended, and solves the problem that the lifting mechanism often pulls on the cable 1 when moving up and down.

[0052] This utility model designs a stacker crane with a cable guiding structure. By adding an auxiliary structure to the stacking equipment, the cable is routed around the moving frame and then connected to the lifting body, which guides the movement of the cable. This allows the cable to move stably in the suspended state, avoiding frequent swaying of the cable and solving the problem of the lifting mechanism frequently pulling on the cable during up and down movement.

[0053] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of this utility model. Their purpose is to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of this utility model and implement it. They cannot be used to limit the protection scope of this utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of this utility model should be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
