Here is the design we've used variations of since '96.
It's a simple chain loop and one box extrusion sliding inside another.
It doesn't get much simpler.
The top cross member is stationary and mounted to the inner extrusion.
The motor is stationary at the bottom of the robot, and the chain is linked to the lower cross member to drive the whole assembly up.
