WAREHOUSE CARGO ELEVATOR FOR LOGISTICS SYSTEM Technical Field The present invention relates to the technical field of logistics transportation, in particular to a warehouse cargo elevator for a logistics system.

Background Art With development of urbanization and progress of logistics technology, underground logistics receive attention increasingly. Various theoretical researches and practical breakthroughs are conducted on underground logistics technologies at home, including underground logistics network planning to operation and maintenance management. Effective delivery of cargoes at a terminal node is the last and important link of an underground logistics system. The space and time efficiencies are improved effectively when the target cargoes are conveyed normally from underground to ground.

Nowadays, the latest concept about a transportation mode of a terminal node of underground logistics proposed at home is designed according to a residential building. Single household batched transportation is achieved by a vertical transportation pipeline, but there are malpractices to be perfected: (1) the transportable cargo range is lack of flexible adjustment, the sizes of cargoes are limited by section of the pipeline, and only can articles of certain dimensions be transported; (2) the transportation mode is complex in design, and transportation is carried out based on household, so that a pipeline paving plan is not economical and high in design difficulty; and (3) the transportation space is used not intensively, and although the way of delivery to household ensures precise transportation, the unit transportation residual space is wasted if the transportation quantity is small.

Summary of the Invention The present invention provides a warehouse cargo elevator for a logistics system. The warehouse cargo elevator is simple in structure, reduces the waste of residual spaces effectively by containing and conveying cargoes automatically, and is more economical and practical, so that the cargoes are delivered effectively in civil buildings with a large logistics quantity demand.
