[0034] As shown in Fig.4, the movable robot 20 formed including: the main frame 21 which have plurality of the horizontal and vertical supporting bars which rotable by the swivel joints 22 and have the protruding supporting frame 23 in the form of bracket, at least two pairs of wheels 24 which fitted rotable on the side of the bottom frame of the main frame 21 to make the movable robot 20 moving on the guide rail system 10 by the wheel driving motor (not shown in the figures), and plurality of the hydraulic cylinders-pistons 25 which disposed on the main frame 21 to change the angle and the balance of the main frame 21.

[0035] As shown in Fig.2 and Fig.4a, the cabin 50 is formed with a rectangular frame 51 and other conventional components such as housing, door system, signaling electrical system, etc. (not shown in the figures) which are used to transport people and objects. Basically, the cabin 50 is similar to the conventional cabins; therefore, a detailed description of cabin 50 will be omitted.

[0036] As shown in Fig.4, Fig.5 and Fig.5a, the vertical guiding rope mechanism 30 is formed with a pair of rope guiding pulleys 31 which are disposed at the two ends of the protruding supporting frame 23 of the main frame 21 and a pair of vertical guiding ropes 32 which are moveable on two rope guiding pulleys 31 : one end of each vertical guiding rope 32 is fixed to the guiding rope crab 33; pair of rope stretching weights 34 are fixed to the other ends of two vertical guiding ropes 32; and rope stretching weight locks 35 are disposed on pair of the rope stretching weights 34. According to the preferred embodiment, the rope stretching weight locks 35 are electromagnetic ones.

[0037] As shown in Fig.4, Fig.5 and Fig.5a, the cabin operating mechanism 40 is formed with a cabin rope crab 41 which is actuated by using a motor (not shown in the figures) (according to the preferred embodiment, the cabin rope crab 41 is independent on the guiding rope crab 33 of the vertical guiding rope mechanism 30), the first cabin operating pulley 42, the second cabin operating pulley 43 which is rotable and parallel to the first cabin operating pulley 42, and the first and second cabin operating ropes 44 and 45 which can move on the first and second cabin operating pulleys 42 and 43 to make the cabin 50 move up and down on the vertical guiding rope mechanism 30 (a detailed description will be mentioned below).

[0038] With reference to Fig.5 and Fig.5a, the distance between the first and second cabin operating pulleys 42 and 43 is determined based on the width of the cabin 50 so that the cabin 50 is always balanced. This distance is preferably in the middle of the cabin 50. The present invention is limited to specific distance.

[0039] According to the preferred embodiment, the first and second cabin operating pulleys 42 and 43 are similarly structured to perform similar functions; the first and second cabin operating ropes 44 and 45 are similarly disposed and have the same functions.

In particular, pair of vertical guiding ropes 32 of vertical guiding rope mechanism 30 is inserted between each pair of guide pulleys 612 so that two pairs of guide pulleys 612 of the hoist control mechanism 60 can rotate to move on pair of vertical guiding ropes 32 through the cabin operating mechanism 40.

[0044] As shown in Fig.6, the cabin locking and guiding mechanism 62 formed with the first mounting bracket pair 621, three guiding-braking fixed pulleys 622 which disposed rotable to form a line on the pair of the first mounting bracket 621 and be side one of the vertical guiding rope 32, the pair of the second mounting bracket 623 which is fixed to the pair the first mounting bracket 621, two guiding-braking movable pulleys 624 which are able to rotate to form a line on the second mounting bracket pair 623 disposed to the three guiding-braking fixed pulleys 622, a interlocking bar 625 which is placed horizontally and can rotate in a seesaw rotation on the pair of the second mounting bracket 623, a locking component 626 which consists of a locking thrust axis 626a which disposed at an inclined angle a=15° from the vertical direction and the upper end of which rests on an end one of the interlocking bar 625, and a locking spring 626b attached to a lower end of the locking thrust shaft 626a so that it is always in state of pushing the locking thrust shaft 626a upwards to move horizontally two guiding-braking movable pulleys 624 to press the vertical guiding rope 32 abuting on three guiding-braking pulleys 622; and a unlocking cylinder 627 is installed on the frame 51 of the cabin 50, the free end of which abuts on the other end of the interlocking bar 625 to adjust the balance of the locking spring 626b.

[0045] As shown in Fig.7, each one of the vertical guiding rope stretching and fixing assembly 70 placed on the ground and consists of a base plate 71, a guide hollow pillar 72 which has a guide hole 73 which formed at the center axis and a cone-shaped mouth 74 corresponding to the shape of the rope stretching weight

33 of the vertical guiding rope mechanism 30 so that the rope stretching weight

34 can be placed therein, a rope stretching hydraulic cylinder 75 disposed in the guide hole 73; when the rope stretching weight 34 is placed inside the the cone- shaped mouth 74, the rope lock set 34 of the vertical guiding rope mechanism 30 will be actuated to lock the rope stretching weight 33 to the rope stretching cylinder 75 to stretch the vertical guiding rope 32.

Wherein the movable fixing element 4042 has an abuting end 4042a having a cone-shaped end corresponding to the cone-shaped concave 3014 of the positing rail 4014, thereby always generating the elastic friction between the abuting end 4042a of the movable fixing element 4042 and the cone-shaped concave 3014 of the positing rail 4014 by the compression of the connecting spring 4043.

[0064] As shown in Fig.14, the brake mechanism 405 formed with plurality of pairs of the brake devices 4051 which arranged symmetrically on pairs of the brake linking bar 4057 on both sides of the positing rail 4014 of the horizontal running vehicle 401. Wherein each one of the brake devices 4051 formed with the brake shaft 4052, the brake assembly 4053 has plurality of the brake pads 4053a mounted movable on brake shaft 4052 by the brake springs 4054 which usually compressed, the pairs of the brake releasing cylinders 4055 and the pair of the brake releasing pistons 4056 which can be moved in cylinders by the hydraulic driving source (not shown in figures). Because the brake spring 4054 is always in compression state, so that the brake assembly 4053 always generate the braking efficiency on the inside surfaces of the middle portion 3013 of the vertical guiding rail 301, thereby the vertical running vehicle 402 located on the positing rail 4014 of the horizontal running vehicle 401 or the vertical guiding rail 301 of the vertical guiding rail system 3 in case the vertical running vehicle 402 being on the vertical guiding rail system 3 (has running thereon).

[0065] As shown in Fig.14, the brake mechanism 405 futher includes the screws 4058 for adjusting the compression forces of the brake spring 4054, that is adjusting the braking force of the brake assembly 4053 to impact on the positing rail 4014 of the horizontal running vehicle 401 and the vertical guiding rail 301 of the vertical guiding rail system 3.

[0066] The operating principles of the hoisting system according to the second embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with the main components as follow:

[The operation of the navigation mechanism 1]

[0067] The movable robot 4 is usually on the top of the rotation wheel 102 to be the position I in Fig.8, (however, the movable robot 4 is also on the top of one of pairs of the horizontal guiding rail 201), when the controlling system commands the movable robot 4 to move, for example, on the left side of the building B, the rotation wheel 102 will rotary and match the positing rail 104 with pairs of the guiding rails 201 of the horizontal guiding rail system 2 on the left side of the building 1 by the rotation wheel driving actuator 103.

[The operation of the horizontal running vehicle 401 of the movable robot 4] [0068] As shown in Fig.8, the wheel driving engine 4013 operates to drive the pairs of the wheels 4012 rotating so that the horizontal running vehicle 401 moves to the above comer of the left side and to be located in the position II in Fig.8 by the horizontal arrester 202 of the horizontal guiding rail system 2, that is, the pairs of the wheels 4012 rotary on the top of the horizontal guiding rail 201.

[The operation of the horizontal running vehicle 402]

[0069] As above described and shown in Fig.8, Fig.10 va Fig.14, the horizontal running vehicle 402 usually located on the positing rail 4014 of the horizontal running frame 401 1 by the hoisting mechanism 403 and the brake mechanism 405. When the pairs of the positing rail 4014 of the horizontal running frame 4011 at the same ordinate as the pairs of the vertical guiding rail 301 of the vertical guiding rail system 3, the brake mechanism 405 commanded to release the brake effect (See Fig.14) and the hoisting mechanism 403 releases the vertical running vehicle 402 moves on the pairs of the vertical guiding rail 301 by the weight of the vertical running vehicle 402 to moves down to the predetermined locations according to controlling system.

[The operation of brake mechanism 405]

[0070] As above described and shown in Fig.8 and Fig.14, the brake mechanism 405 usually generate the brake effect (close), that is the brake assembly 4053 usually impact the brake effect to the middle portion 3013 of the positing rail 4014 by the propulsive force of the spring 4045. When the brake mechanism 4045 commanded to release the brake effect, the brake releasing piston 4056 will be moved in the brake releasing cylinder 4055 to pull the brake assembly 4053 separating from the middle portion 3013 of the positing rail 4014 by the hydraulic driving source (no shown in firgures), at the same time it also compresses further the spring 4054. When the brake mechanism 405 commanded to generate the brake effect again in case of stopping at a predetermined position or in case of breaking the rope 4036, the brake releasing piston 4056 stopped and the brake springs 4054 push the brake assembly 4053 abuting on the middle portion 3013 of the pairs of the vertical guiding rail 301. [Operation of hoisting mechanism 403]

[0071] In the operation of releasing the vertical running vehicle 402 moving down: the rope crab 4031 releases the vertical running vehicle pulling rope 4036 through rope supporting pulley 4032, in this operation, the brake mechanism 405 has released.

[0072] In the operation of pulling of vertical running vehicle 402 moving up: the rope crab 4031 rolls the vertical running vehicle pulling rope 4036 through the rope supporting pulley 4032, in this operation, the brake mechanism 405 has released.
