The invention relates to a triple buffering device for an electric hoist. By adoption of the triple buffering device for the electric hoist, the problem that when an existing electric hoist is used for hoisting, buffering is insufficient, and consequentially the service life of a cable is short is effectively solved. According to the technical scheme, the triple buffering device for the electric hoist comprises an I-shaped beam, two first gears which can move left and right are arranged in each of grooves in the front and rear ends of the I-shaped beam, and the front end face and the rear end face of each first gear are each provided with a turning wheel which is concentric with the first gear; a circular groove is formed in the end face, corresponding to one first gear, of each turning wheel, and a compression spring is arranged in each circular groove; second gears which can move up and down are arranged above the two first gears on the same side, and a first tension spring is connected between the two turning wheels located on the same sides of the first gears; extension shafts are arranged at the centers of the second gears, a fixed plate is arranged below the I-shaped beam, the extending-ends of the extension shafts are connected with the fixed plate through second tension springs, and two first telescopic rods are arranged on the left and the right side of each second tension spring; and a limiting device is arranged on the fixed plate. The triple buffering device for the electric hoist is novel in concept and ingenious in structure.
