Abstract
A vertical support for a transport robot includes a column assembly and a driving assembly. The vertical support includes a fixed column frame and a movable column frame movably arranged on the fixed column frame. The driving assembly includes a traction assembly and a retractable assembly connected to the traction assembly. The traction assembly is connected to the carrying device and configured to drive a carrying device of the transport robot to move relative to the movable column frame. The traction assembly includes two sets of traction assemblies located at two opposed sides of the carrying device respectively, the retractable assembly is configured to drive the two sets of the traction assemblies to synchronously drive the carrying device to ascend or descend.
