Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lifting mechanism technology, and in particular to a chain-driven flexible transmission lifting mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] In industrial production and many related fields, chain-driven flexible transmission lifting mechanisms are widely used in various equipment and scenarios requiring lifting functions. These mechanisms utilize the characteristics of chain drives to achieve relatively smooth and efficient lifting operations.
[0003] However, existing chain-driven flexible transmission lifting mechanisms have some significant shortcomings. A particularly prominent issue is that the support plate connected to this mechanism is typically only installed at the top of the lifting end. This design limitation prevents the installation of multiple support plates on the mechanism. In practical use, a single support plate severely limits the mechanism's load-bearing capacity.
[0004] In some industrial production processes, it is often necessary to lift multiple parts or large, heavy items at once. Existing chain-driven flexible lifting mechanisms, due to their limited load-bearing capacity, cannot simultaneously meet such demands. Either lifting operations must be performed in multiple stages, significantly reducing production efficiency; or their load-bearing limits are exceeded, and forced use may lead to mechanism failure or even damage, increasing maintenance costs and safety risks.

When the locking component contacts the locking bearing plate, the locking bearing plate moves together with the flexible lifting component.
[0008] Optionally, several support plates are formed with functional holes, and the size of the functional holes gradually increases along the direction of the support plate toward the supporting body; The size of the locking components gradually decreases along the direction from the support body towards the bearing plate, and the locking components correspond one-to-one with the bearing plate.
[0009] Optionally, the locking element is a locking column, which can be detachably installed on the flexible lifting element to adjust the distance between adjacent locking elements along the flexible lifting element.
[0010] Optionally, it also includes: A support frame is fixedly installed on one side of the support body, and several load-bearing plates are slidably installed on the support frame along the height direction of the support frame.

Detailed Implementation
[0018] To better explain and facilitate understanding of this utility model, a detailed description of its specific embodiments is provided below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In this document, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," etc., are used interchangeably with other directional terms. Figure 1 The orientation is used as a reference.
[0019] To better understand the above technical solutions, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein. Rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present invention can be understood more clearly and thoroughly, and that the scope of the present invention can be fully conveyed to those skilled in the art.
[0020] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment proposes a chain-driven flexible transmission lifting mechanism, including: a support body 100, with a flexible lifting member 200 extending from its interior; several bearing plates 300, overlapping and arranged on the top of the support body 100, with the flexible lifting member 200 penetrating through the bearing plates 300; at least two flexible lifting members 200, symmetrically arranged on both sides of the support body 100; and a locking member 400, disposed on the flexible lifting member 200, moving with the flexible lifting member 200. When the locking member 400 contacts and locks the bearing plate 300, the bearing plate 300 locked to it moves together with the flexible lifting member 200.
[0021] The chain-driven flexible lifting mechanism provided in this embodiment includes a support body 100, a flexible lifting component 200, a bearing plate 300, and a locking component 400. The flexible lifting component 200 extends from inside the support body 100, and a drive motor is installed inside the support body 100 to control the extension and lifting of the flexible lifting component 200. The bearing plate 300 is directly used to support items. Multiple bearing plates 300 are stacked on top of the support body 100. The flexible lifting component 200 penetrates through the bearing plate 300, with at least two flexible lifting components 200 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the support body 100. This symmetrical arrangement ensures that the bearing plate maintains balanced force during lifting, avoiding problems such as tilting, swaying, or even falling due to uneven force, further improving the stability and reliability of the entire lifting process. The locking component 400 is installed on the flexible lifting component 200 and can move along with it. When the locking component 400 contacts and engages with the support plate 300, the engaged support plate 300 will move up and down together with the flexible lifting component 200. The locking component 400 plays a key role in precisely controlling the lifting of the support plate. According to actual needs, the locking component 400 can be flexibly controlled to engage with support plates 300 at different positions, thereby achieving individual control of the lifting of one or more support plates, meeting the requirements of performing different operations simultaneously at different heights under complex process conditions.
[0022] Through the coordinated operation of the various components, this technical solution overcomes the limitations of existing chain-driven flexible transmission lifting mechanisms, realizes the effective setting and flexible control of multiple load-bearing plates, greatly improves the load-bearing capacity and applicability of the mechanism, and can better meet the requirements of lifting operations for goods in modern industrial production and diverse application scenarios.
[0023] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in some examples, several support plates 300 are formed with functional holes 301, and the size of the functional holes 301 gradually increases along the direction of the support plate 300 toward the support body 100; the size of the locking member 400 gradually decreases along the direction of the support body 100 toward the support plate 300, and the locking member 400 corresponds one-to-one with the support plate 300.
[0024] In this technical solution, several support plates 300 are formed with functional holes 301. Along the direction from the support plate 300 toward the support body 100, the size of each support plate 300 gradually increases. The gradually increasing functional holes 301 allow locking members 400 at different positions to pass through and engage with the corresponding support plates 300. The locking members 400, along the direction from the support body 100 toward the support plate 300, gradually decrease in size and are used in conjunction with the functional holes 301. Each locking component 400 is responsible for locking and driving only one corresponding carrier plate 300, ensuring that individual operation of each carrier plate is possible. In practical applications, such as when complex processes require processing, assembling, and inspecting different items at different heights simultaneously, different locking components 400 can be controlled to engage or disengage with their respective carrier plates 300, achieving independent lifting control of multiple carrier plates 300. This greatly improves the flexibility and functionality of the chain-driven flexible transmission lifting mechanism in practical applications.
[0025] In some instances, the locking element 400 is a locking post, which is detachably mounted on the flexible lifting element 200 to adjust the distance between adjacent locking elements 400 along the flexible lifting element 200.
[0026] In this technical solution, the locking component 400 is a locking post that fits well with the functional hole 301 of the bearing plate 300. The locking component 400 is detachably installed on the flexible lifting component 200. In different production processes, if it is necessary to change the number of items carried at the same time, or if the worn locking component 400 needs to be replaced after long-term use of the mechanism, the detachable installation method makes these adjustments easy and convenient, without the need for large-scale disassembly or modification of the entire mechanism, which can effectively reduce maintenance costs and downtime.
[0027] The detachable feature further extends to the important function of adjusting the distance between adjacent locking elements 400 along the flexible lifting element 200. Different tasks may have different requirements for the spacing between the support plates. By changing the distance between adjacent locking elements 400, the vertical spacing between the support plates 300 can be adjusted accordingly.
[0028] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in some examples, it also includes: a support frame 500, which is fixedly installed on one side of the support body 100, and several bearing plates 300 are slidably installed on the support frame 500 along the height direction of the support frame 500.
[0029] In this technical solution, a support frame 500 is fixedly installed on one side of the support body 100. Along the height direction of the support frame 500, several bearing plates 300 are slidably installed on the support frame 500, providing a precise running track and guidance for the vertical lifting and lowering of the bearing plates 300. When multiple bearing plates 300 are overlapped and need to be lifted simultaneously or individually, the support frame 500 provides reliable lateral support for the bearing plates 300, preventing them from shifting, swaying, or twisting during lifting and lowering. Through cooperation with the support frame 500, the bearing plates 300 can smoothly rise or fall along a designed straight trajectory, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the items during loading and lifting, thus helping to improve product quality and work efficiency.
[0030] The sliding connection between the bearing plate 300 and the support frame 500 makes the movements of the various components inside the mechanism more coordinated and unified. When the flexible lifting component 200 drives the locking component 400 and the bearing plate 300 that is locked to it to rise and fall, the support frame 500, as an auxiliary support structure, can constrain and guide the movement of the bearing plate 300 in real time, making the entire lifting system smoother and more harmonious during operation, and reducing noise, wear and malfunctions caused by uncoordinated movements between components.
[0031] The support frame 500 works in conjunction with the support body 100 and the load-bearing plate 300 to further improve the structural design of the chain-driven flexible transmission lifting mechanism, significantly enhancing the stability, accuracy, and overall performance of the mechanism during load-bearing and lifting processes, enabling it to operate more reliably and efficiently in various industrial application scenarios.
[0032] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some examples, the support frame 500 has movable grooves 501 formed on both sides along its height direction; the bearing plate 300 is provided with rollers 600, which are rotatably mounted in the movable grooves 501.
[0033] In this technical solution, the support frame 500 forms movable grooves 501 on both sides along its height direction. The movable grooves 501 provide a track and guide for the movement of the support plate 300. The movable grooves 501 stipulate that the support plate 300 can only move in a straight line along the height direction of the support frame 500, effectively preventing lateral displacement or swaying of the support plate 300 during lifting and lowering, and ensuring the stability and accuracy of its movement. For example, in practical applications, if the movement of the support plate 300 loses its guidance, it will cause the position of the items placed on it to shift, affecting the entire operation process. For example, in material handling or processing equipment, this will directly affect product quality.
[0034] The movable slots 501 on both sides enable the support frame 500 to provide support for the bearing plate 300 while also enhancing the rigidity of the overall structure. This allows for better dispersion of various forces generated by the bearing plate 300 during lifting and lowering, such as gravity and inertial forces, thus preventing excessive local stress from causing structural damage.
[0035] Rollers 600 are installed on the support plate 300 and are rolled in the moving groove 501, which transforms sliding friction into rolling friction. The friction force of rolling friction is relatively small, which can greatly reduce the resistance of the support plate 300 during the lifting process. The smaller friction force can also reduce the wear between parts and extend the service life of the mechanism.
[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in some instances, a buffer 700 is also included, disposed on the lower end face of the support plate 300, for reducing the impact force when adjacent support plates 300 come into contact.
[0037] In this technical solution, the buffer 700 is disposed on the lower end face of the support plate 300. In the chain-driven flexible transmission lifting mechanism, multiple support plates 300 are stacked along the height direction and each has independent lifting function. During actual operation, due to the influence of various factors such as operating speed, control accuracy, and material loading, adjacent support plates 300 will inevitably generate impact force when they come into contact. If this impact force is not controlled and mitigated, it may bring many adverse effects: When adjacent bearing plates 300 approach and contact each other, the buffer 700 can absorb and disperse the impact force through its own elastic deformation, converting kinetic energy into its own elastic potential energy, thereby prolonging the impact time and reducing the peak value of the instantaneous impact force. In this way, the mechanical components of the equipment are protected, the stability and reliability during operation are improved, and it helps to ensure the long-term stable operation of the equipment, thereby improving production efficiency and product quality.
[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, in some examples, it also includes: a plurality of auxiliary support members 800, which are equidistantly arranged along the height direction of the support frame 500. When the auxiliary support members 800 extend out of the support frame 500, the auxiliary support members 800 are used to assist in supporting the bearing plate 300.
[0039] In this technical solution, several auxiliary support components 800 are equidistantly arranged along the height direction of the support frame 500, so that the bearing plate 300 can receive regular auxiliary support throughout the entire lifting stroke. When the bearing plate 300 rises to a certain height, it corresponds precisely to an auxiliary support component 800 at a certain position. This makes the lifting process of the bearing plate 300 more stable and reduces swaying or deviation caused by uneven force.
[0040] The portion of the auxiliary support 800 extending out of the support frame 500 can effectively contact and act on the support plate 300, ensuring that it can reliably perform its auxiliary support function on the support plate 300. If the auxiliary support 800 does not extend out of the support frame 500, it cannot contact the support plate 300.
[0041] For example, the support member 800 is driven by a drive source and may be a telescopic rod.
