no. 1 Embodiment approach 〕
[0031] A first embodiment of the picking system will be described with reference to the drawings. The picking system 1 of the present embodiment is installed, for example, in a distribution facility owned by a company that conducts e-commerce transactions, and is used to collect (sort out) necessary articles A from among a plurality of stored articles A and deliver them out of the warehouse.
[0032] Such as figure 1 As shown, the picking system 1 includes, as main components, a multi-level sorting device 2 , a container supporting device 3 arranged in line with the multi-level sorting device 2 , a conveyance device 4 , and an automatic warehouse 7 . In addition, the sorting system 1 of the present embodiment includes an article dismantling unit 8 and an empty container supply device 9 .
[0033] In the following description, the direction in which the multi-stage sorting device 2 and the container supporting device 3 are arranged is referred to as "arrangement direction Y". ...
no. 2 Embodiment approach 〕
[0082] Next, a second embodiment of the picking system will be described. Hereinafter, this embodiment will be described focusing on points different from the first embodiment described above. Points not particularly described are the same as those of the first embodiment described above.
[0083] Figure 10 It is a top view schematically showing main parts of the picking system 1 . Figure 11 It is a figure which schematically shows the main part of the picking system 1 seen along the arrangement direction of the arrangement direction Y. in addition, Figure 10 with Figure 11 They do not correspond to each other, but represent different operating states of the picking system 1 .
[0084] Such as Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, in this embodiment, the transport device 4 includes a transport conveyor 450 . Furthermore, in this example, the conveying device 4 includes a relay conveying device 420, a carry-out conveyor 430 that receives the actual storage container B...

Abstract
The purpose of the present invention is to implement a picking system capable of efficiently performing a series of operations from collection to delivery of articles in a limited space. Provided is apicking system (1) comprising: a plurality-of-tier sorting device (2) that sorts and discharges articles into one of entrances (21) of a plurality of tiers on the basis of an order; a container support device (3) capable of supporting housing containers (B) in a plurality of tiered container support portions (32) until a group of articles, that is, a set of articles for each order, is collected,and a conveying device (4) that conveys out the housing containers (B) in which articles are housed therein from the container support portions (32), and conveying empty housing containers (B) into the container support portions (32).
Description
technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a picking system (PICKING SYSTEM). Background technique [0002] For example, a company conducting e-commerce transactions stores various items in a distribution warehouse, and when an order is received, the purchased items may be directly delivered from the distribution warehouse to the buyer. In such a case, a picking system is used that collects necessary articles from among a plurality of stored articles and releases them from the warehouse. An example of this sorting system is disclosed in JP 2004-189417 A (Patent Document 1). [0003] This picking system includes a plurality of carriages 122 including sorting trays 121 that are tiltable in a direction perpendicular to the traveling direction as a sorting device. After the trolley 122 is driven to the intended sorting position, the sorting tray 121 is tilted to discharge the articles, and the discharged articles are received in the collection box B to be sorted. ...
