Detailed Implementation
[0022] The technical solution of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are some embodiments of this utility model, but not all embodiments.
[0023] Reference Figures 1 to 4A vertical unloading machine includes a vertically erected frame 10. Inside the frame 10 is a vertically arranged drive unit 20. In this embodiment, the drive unit 20 is a cylinder. The output end of the cylinder is fixedly connected to a mounting base 30. A horizontally arranged rotating shaft 31 passes through the mounting base 30. Rotatable sprockets 32 are respectively provided at both ends of the rotating shaft 31. An exposed window 11 is provided on one side of the frame 10. Inside the exposed window 11, two slide rails 12 are arranged at intervals along the length of the frame 10. Slider blocks 13 are provided on the slide rails 12. The side of the slider 13 facing away from the slide rail 12 is fixedly mounted on the slide rail 12. A movable plate 14 is fixedly connected. The side of the movable plate 14 facing away from the slider 13 is provided with a first connecting member 41. The side of the drive unit 20 is provided with a second connecting member 42. The first connecting member 41 is provided with a chain 43. The chain 43 passes around the sprocket 32 and connects downward to the second connecting member 42. The side of the movable plate 14 facing the slider 13 is provided with a movable seat 15. A movable arm 16 is pivotally connected to the movable seat 15.

The end of the swing arm 18 is connected to a fixing clamp for fixing the toilet.
[0024] In application, the drive unit 20 drives the mounting base 30 to move up and down, which in turn drives the chain 43 to move through the rotating shaft 31 and the sprocket 32. The movement of the chain 43 causes the first connecting member 41 to move accordingly, thereby causing the moving plate 14 to slide up and down along the slide rail 12. The movement of the moving plate 14 further drives the movable seat 15 and the movable arm 16, and transmits it to the pivot seat 17, so that the toilet held on the fixed clamp at the end of the swing arm 18 moves accordingly, thereby realizing the handling and transfer of the toilet, greatly improving the efficiency of toilets going on and off the production line, reducing the labor intensity of workers, and significantly improving the overall production efficiency.
[0025] Reference Figures 1 to 4The fixing clamp includes a fixing ring 51 passing through the end of the swing arm 18, a first hook 52 hooked on the fixing ring 51, a chain 53 connected to the bottom of the first hook 52, and a second hook 54 connected to the free end of the chain 53. A limiting member is hooked onto the second hook 54, and the limiting member has a positioning element for insertion and engagement with the toilet drain pipe. The limiting member includes an L-shaped connecting rod 551 and a limiting rod 552 fixedly disposed at the end of the connecting rod 551.

The positioning element includes a locking seat 552 locked to the limiting rod 552. 61. The bottom of the locking base 561 is fixedly provided with a positioning rod 562. The end of the positioning rod 562 is provided with a positioning part 5621 for extending into the toilet drain pipe. In use, the positioning part 5621 can be firmly inserted into the interface of the toilet drain pipe to ensure that it will not fall off when the toilet is lifted. The overall height of the fixing clamp can also be flexibly changed by adjusting the length of the locking chain 53 to adapt to the installation requirements of different models of toilets. In addition, the limiting part 5521 formed by bending the two ends of the limiting rod 552 downward can provide effective blocking when the toilet is slightly offset, improving the stability of the toilet when it is on and off the line.
[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The frame 10 is also provided with a controller 60 for controlling the drive unit 20 on one side. In this embodiment, the controller 60 can be a programmable controller. The rear side of the moving plate 14 is provided with two spaced fixing blocks 141. Each fixing block 141 is provided with a first chain connecting rod, which is the first connector 41 mentioned above. The second connector 42 is two spaced second chain connecting rods arranged on the rear side of the drive unit 20. There are two chains 43, which are located on both sides of the moving plate 14. Both chains 43 pass around the coaxial sprocket 32 and are connected to the second chain connecting rods on both sides of the rear of the drive unit 20. The bottom of the frame 10 is also provided with casters 101 and adjustable feet 102. In this way, when in use, the arrangement of chains 43 on both sides can ensure that the moving plate 14 moves up and down smoothly on the slide rail 13, avoiding tilting or jamming caused by uneven force on one side. In addition, the casters 101 and adjustable feet 102 at the bottom of the frame 10 further enhance the flexibility and stability of the equipment. The casters 101 allow the frame 10 to move easily between different working areas, while the adjustable feet 12 can make fine adjustments to the height after the frame 10 is positioned, ensuring that the entire frame 10 is in a horizontal state and improving the stability when loading and unloading toilets.
