Tower lift

1. A tower lift comprising:

a main frame extending in a vertical direction;

a carriage including a lift frame having a rear surface and at least one support plate configured to be movable in the vertical direction along the main frame;

a weight disposed behind the carriage and configured to be movable in the vertical direction along the main frame;

a driving module disposed on the main frame and configured to move the carriage and the weight in the vertical direction using at least one timing belt;

an auto tensioner disposed on a lower portion of the main frame and connected with the carriage and the weight by a balance belt;

an upper alignment tool configured to align a horizontal position of the at least one timing belt;

at least one brake mounted to the carriage and disposed in close contact with the main frame; and

at least one carriage robot mounted to the carriage and disposed on the lift frame,

wherein the at least one brake is mounted on the rear surface of the lift frame and configured to activate during a failure mode to prevent the carriage from falling,

wherein the at least one carriage robot is mounted to the at least one support plate and configured to transport a receiving container,

wherein the driving module comprises a pair of diming belts having a first end portion connected with the carriage and a second end portion connected with the weight, respectively, a timing pulley configured in one piece and having a pair of gear portions engaged with the timing belts, and a motor and a reduction gear connected to a drive shaft coupled to rotate the timing pulley, and

wherein the upper alignment tool comprises a first upper alignment roller disposed between the timing belts, second upper alignment rollers disposed on both sides of the pair of timing belts, respectively, an upper fixed block to which the first upper alignment roller is mounted and upper movable blocks to which the second upper alignment rollers are mounted respectively and configured to be movable in a direction parallel with a central axis of the timing pulley.

2. The tower lift of claim 1 , wherein the upper alignment tool further comprises:

second upper fixed blocks disposed on both sides of the upper movable blocks, respectively; and

elastic members disposed between the upper movable blocks and the second upper fixed blocks, respectively.

3. The tower lift of claim 1 , wherein the upper alignment tool further comprises:

upper misalignment detection sensors for monitoring positions of the second upper alignment rollers to detect a misalignment state of the timing belts.

4. The tower lift of claim 1 , wherein the auto tensioner comprises:

a fixed pulley disposed below the carriage and the weight and on which the balance belt is engaged; and

a movable pulley disposed adjacent to the fixed pulley and configured to press an inner side of the balance belt downward to maintain a tension of the balance belt.

5. The tower lift of claim 4 , further comprising a lower alignment tool configured to align a horizontal position of the balance belt.

6. The tower lift of claim 5 , wherein the lower alignment tool comprises:

lower alignment rollers disposed adjacent to both sides of the balance belt, respectively, to prevent the balance belt from being disengaged from the fixed pulley; and

lower movable blocks to which the lower alignment rollers are mounted respectively and configured to be movable in a direction parallel with a central axis of the fixed pulley.

7. The tower lift of claim 6 , wherein the lower alignment tool further comprises:

lower fixed blocks disposed on both sides of the lower movable blocks, respectively; and

elastic members disposed between the lower movable blocks and the lower fixed blocks, respectively.

8. The tower lift of claim 6 , wherein the lower alignment tool further comprises:

lower misalignment detection sensors for monitoring positions of the lower alignment rollers to detect a misalignment state of the balance belt.
