Problems solved by technology

[0002] The AGV transportation system is an unmanned transportation system that uses a large number of AGV equipment. In order to ensure the normal operation of many AGV equipment, it is necessary for the central management system to uniformly control multiple AGV equipment in the AGV transportation system. When the AGV transportation system is in operation, the central management The system assigns transportation tasks to different AGV devices. Every time an AGV device completes a transportation task, the AGV device feeds back the task completion information to the central management system. The next transportation task, the above-mentioned transportation task assignment mode, the data processing requirements for the central management system, and the high communication quality of the network environment where the AGV transportation system is located lead to relatively high construction and maintenance costs for the central management system and network environment equipment. High, and when the production personnel adjust the production process, they need to readjust the data on the central management system, resulting in increased production costs. In addition, the AGV equipment communicates with the central management system, and the data interaction is frequent, sometimes causing network delays. The timing problem caused the central management system to repeatedly issue tasks to the AGV equipment, seriously affecting the overall operation of the AGV transportation system

Embodiment 1

[0042] see figure 1 , the AGV guide rail system of this embodiment includes a central management system 1 and a magnetic guide rail 3, the magnetic guide rail 3 extends from the starting point platform 2 to each processing station, and the magnetic guide rail 3 is provided with a number of site markers 4, so The site marker 4 is provided with a number, and the number information and destination site information are stored in the site marker 4 .

[0043] The central management system 1 is used to designate the first destination site to the AGV (not shown in the figure), and is used for information interaction between the AGV and peripheral equipment when the AGV is moving, and involves complex calculations.

[0044] The manufacturing process of the AGV guide rail system is as follows: the production personnel make the station markers 4, and the production personnel lay the station markers 4 on the corresponding positions of the magnetic guide rails 3 according to the numbers. ...

Embodiment 2

[0070] Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for using the AGV guide rail system of the first embodiment above, including the following steps:

[0071] (a) Designate the first destination station to the AGV on the starting platform;

[0072] (b) The AGV starts and moves along the magnetic guide rail;

[0073] (c) The AGV moves to the destination site, completes the production tasks on the current site, and detects the markers of the current site to obtain the destination site information of the next destination site;

[0074] (d) AGV moves to the next destination site according to the destination site information;

[0075] (e) loop steps (c) to (d) until the AGV completes the production task;

[0076] (f) The AGV returns to the starting platform after completing the production task.

[0077] Preferably, in step (a), the first destination sites of several AGVs starting simultaneously from the starting point platform are different.

[0078] Designati...

Embodiment 3

[0096] This embodiment serves as an improved solution of the second embodiment, and further improves the solution of the first embodiment.

[0097] For the situation of relatively flexible multiple AGV production tasks:

[0098] Preferably, in step (d), when several AGVs move to the same destination site, several AGVs are sorted according to the number of completed destination sites from most to least, and the AGV entry order is obtained, and several AGVs are entered in order according to the AGV entry order Enter the destination site.

[0099] In the above setting method, by sorting several AGVs moving to the same destination station according to the number of completed destination stations from more to less, determine the AGV that is closest to completing the production task, and make it enter the destination station first, so that the The AGV prioritizes the completion of production tasks, which can improve the working efficiency of the AGV transportation system. At the sa...

Abstract

The invention provides an AGV guide rail system. The AGV guide rail system comprises a magnetic guide rail, wherein the magnetic guide rail extends from a starting point platform to each processing station, the magnetic guide rail is provided with a plurality of station markers corresponding to the starting point platform to each processing station, the station markers are provided with numbers, and number information and destination station information are stored in the station markers. The invention further provides a using method of the AGV guide rail system. According to the AGV guide railsystem, the station markers storing the number information and the destination station information are arranged on the magnetic guide rail, and when an AGV moves to the station markers, the next destination station can be obtained by reading the destination station information on the station markers.
