[0043] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a hanger picking mechanism for a lifting machine and a lifting device including the hanger picking mechanism. The hanger picking mechanism includes a chain 1, a picking hook 2, a spring 3, a screw plug 4, and a retaining spring 5. The chain 1 drives the picking hook 2 to rotate, and the picking hook 2, in conjunction with the spring 3, screw plug 4, and retaining spring 5, effectively picks up hangers one by one. This ensures stable operation of the device through the coordinated action of the components, avoids damage to the hangers, and meets the needs of the production line. The specific configuration is as follows:
[0044] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The chain 1 is configured as a closed ring structure, which can rotate cyclically under the drive of an external drive device. The chain 1 has several sets of chain shafts 11, and the spacing between two adjacent sets of chain shafts 11 is set to 100-500mm to adapt to different lifting speeds and hanger spacing requirements.
[0045] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The pickup hook 2 is configured as a plate-type structure, and one side of the pickup hook 2 is flexibly mounted on a set of chain shafts 11, so that the pickup hook 2 can rotate around the chain shafts 11.
[0046] The pickup hook 2 has a sliding hole 21, a transmission part 22, and a hook groove 23. The sliding hole 21 is opened inside the pickup hook 2, and the width of the sliding hole 21 is greater than the diameter of the chain shaft 11. The pickup hook 2 is sleeved on an adjacent set of chain shafts 11 through the sliding hole 21, so that when the pickup hook 2 rotates, the adjacent set of chain shafts 11 can be moved corresponding to the sliding hole 21.
[0047] One end of the spring 3 is fixedly connected to the pickup hook 2 via the plug 4, and the other end of the spring 3 is fixedly connected to another set of chain shafts 11. The spring 3 is a cylindrical helical spring with an elastic coefficient ranging from 1 to 15 N / mm.
[0048] The transmission part 22 protrudes from the lower part of the pickup hook 2 on the side away from the chain 1. The hook groove 23 has a U-shaped opening structure and is located on the lower part of the pickup hook 2 on the side away from the chain 1, and is located below the transmission part 22. When the pickup hook 2 moves to the elevator inlet and encounters several hangers arranged in the same direction as the chain 1, the transmission part 22 of the pickup hook 2 contacts the hangers in sequence, thereby pressing the pickup hook 2 towards the chain 1. At this time, the pickup hook 2 rotates around the chain shaft 11, the spring 3 is compressed, and the hook groove 23 at its lower part also moves inward, preventing it from contacting the hangers. The two sets of hooks work together to prevent the hangers from getting caught. When the pick-up hook 2 reaches the last set of hangers, since there are no more hangers to follow, the transmission part 22 of the pick-up hook 2 is no longer subjected to the pressure of the hangers. Under the elastic restoring force of the spring 3, the pick-up hook 2 and its lower hook groove 23 return to their initial positions. The hook groove 23 works with the last set of hangers to hook the hangers. Then, another set of pick-up hooks 2 continues to run with the chain 1. When the other set of pick-up hooks 2 reaches the entrance of the elevator, the above process is repeated, thereby lifting the hangers at the entrance one by one to meet the production line's production and delivery requirements for lifting each hanger.
[0049] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 The plug 4 is assembled with the pickup hook 2; wherein, the plug 4 is made of metal and is cylindrical in shape, one end of the plug 4 is provided with an external thread, and the pickup hook 2 is provided with an internal thread hole that mates with the plug 4. The plug 4 is assembled to the pickup hook 2 by means of threaded connection, which is secure and facilitates adjustment of the compression degree of the spring 3.
[0050] Please refer to Figure 2 The retaining ring 5 is assembled on two adjacent sets of chain shafts 11 on which the pickup hook 2 is installed, and the retaining ring 5 is located on the outer side of the pickup hook 2. The retaining ring 5 matches the groove on the chain shaft 11 to axially limit the pickup hook 2, prevent the pickup hook 2 from moving axially on the chain shaft 11 or falling off, ensure the assembly stability between the pickup hook 2 and the chain 1, and ensure the normal operation of the device.
[0051] As a preferred embodiment, the inner side of the hook groove 23 may be provided with anti-slip texture, the depth of which is 0.5-1mm. This can increase the friction between the hook groove 23 and the hanger, prevent the hanger from falling out of the hook groove 23 during the lifting process, and further ensure the stability of the hanger conveying.
[0052] As another preferred embodiment, the surface of the transmission part 22 is provided with a polished surface to reduce the friction between the transmission part 22 and the hanger, reduce wear when the hanger comes into contact with the transmission part 22, and protect the hanger from damage.
[0053] Although the present invention has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, some modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, all such modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present invention fall within the scope of protection claimed by the present invention.
