Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of industrial automation and intelligent warehousing technology, and in particular to an automated management system and method for a steel plate warehouse area. Background Art

[0002] With the acceleration of industrialization and the rapid development of the manufacturing industry, the demand for raw materials such as steel plates in heavy industrial fields such as shipyards and steel mills is growing, and their storage and management efficiency has become a key factor affecting production efficiency and cost control. However, at this stage, many companies still use the traditional steel plate warehouse management model, which relies on manual operation and experience judgment, and there are many problems and challenges that cannot be ignored.

[0003] In traditional steel plate warehouses, the handling and stacking of steel plates mainly rely on manual crane operation. This method not only requires operators to have high professional skills and rich experience, but also faces a huge burden of physical labor. Long-term, high-intensity working environment not only affects the physical and mental health of workers, but also easily leads to operational errors, which in turn affects work efficiency and safety.

[0004] The management of steel plates entering and leaving the warehouse often lacks systematic planning and records, resulting in random and disorderly placement of steel plates in the warehouse area. When it is necessary to extract steel plates of specific specifications or batches, it often takes a lot of time and manpower to search, greatly reducing the efficiency of material turnover. In addition, the chaotic stacking method also increases the risk of damage to the steel plates, such as collisions and scratches, further affecting product quality and cost control.

[0005] Due to the randomness of steel plate stacking, large steel plates are easily pressed on small steel plates, forming unreasonable stress distribution. After being under pressure for a long time, the steel plates are prone to obvious deflection on both sides along the length direction, which not only affects the appearance quality of the steel plates, but also increases the instability and difficulty during the lifting process. In order to ensure safe lifting, additional reinforcement measures or adjustment of the lifting point position are often required, further increasing the cost and time of the operation. In addition, when the steel plate has obvious deflection in the length direction, it will increase the difficulty of automatic lifting, which will lead to the inability to complete the automatic lifting operation.

[0006] In view of the above problems, the automated management of steel plate storage areas has become an inevitable choice for enterprises to improve production efficiency, reduce operating costs, and ensure production safety. By introducing modern scientific and technological means such as automated control systems, intelligent recognition technology, and high-precision positioning technology, intelligent management of the entire process of steel plate warehousing, storage, and outbound delivery can be achieved. Specifically, the system can automatically plan the storage location according to the specifications, batches, and other information of the steel plates, and accurately complete the handling and stacking of steel plates through automated handling equipment. At the same time, the use of intelligent recognition technology can quickly and accurately find and extract the required steel plates, significantly improving the material turnover efficiency. In addition, the automated storage solution can effectively avoid the deformation of steel plates caused by long-term pressure, ensuring product quality and production safety.

[0007] In summary, the traditional steel plate warehouse management model can no longer meet the needs of modern industrial production. The introduction of an automated management system will be an important way to solve current problems and improve the level of enterprise management. Summary of the invention

[0008] To this end, an embodiment of the present invention provides an automated management system and method for a steel plate warehouse area, which is used to solve the problems in the prior art that the management of steel plate warehouse areas relies on manual labor, resulting in heavy labor load for handling, chaotic storage, low search efficiency and easy deformation of steel plates.

[0018] Preferably, the warehouse management system can sort the steel plates according to the types required for the project and generate a work list to ensure that the steel plates are lifted to the formal storage area in a descending order to avoid deflection problems.

[0019] Preferably, when lifting multiple steel plates, the automated crane simulates manual operation methods and combines a visual recognition system and a weighing system to achieve accurate transportation of a specified number of steel plates.

[0020] Preferably, the visual recognition system collects video information of the process of lifting the steel plate through a camera device, identifies the timing of the steel plate falling, and jointly determines the number of the suspended objects with the weighing system.

[0036] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0037] Embodiment 1

[0038] The invention solves the problems that the existing technology relies on manual labor to manage the steel plate warehouse area, resulting in heavy handling labor load, chaotic storage, low search efficiency and easy deformation of steel plates. Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an automatic management system for a steel plate storage area, the system comprising:

[0039] The steel plate identification and storage module is used to scan and identify the position and shape of the steel plate, and transport the steel plate to the centering area for regularization processing by crane;

[0040] The warehouse area division module divides the warehouse area into the unloading area, unloading buffer area, centering area, temporary storage area and formal storage area, and classifies and stores steel plates according to steel plate specifications and project requirements;

[0041] The information-based warehousing module is used to identify the spray number on the steel plate or scan the delivery note, and enter the steel plate information into the warehouse management system;

[0042] Automated cranes, equipped with electromagnet or permanent magnet control systems, weighing systems and visual recognition systems, are used to automatically transport, check quantity and accurately lift steel plates;

[0043] The warehouse management system is used to generate a list of steel plate handling tasks based on steel plate specifications, project requirements and warehouse area division rules, and control automated cranes to complete steel plate warehousing, unloading and outbound operations.

[0044] It can be seen from the above technical scheme that the present invention provides an automated management system for steel plate storage areas, which integrates functional modules such as steel plate identification and storage modules, storage area division modules, information storage modules, automated cranes and storage management systems. Through efficient automation technology and intelligent management strategies, the operating efficiency and storage utilization rate of the steel plate storage area are significantly improved, and the deflection problem caused by the mixed storage of steel plates of multiple specifications is effectively avoided, and precise handling and reduced manual intervention are achieved. The system is widely applicable to fields with complex steel plate management requirements such as shipyards and steel mills, and comprehensively improves production efficiency and operational safety.

[0045] The present invention relates to an automated management system for steel plate storage areas, which aims to optimize the storage, handling and outbound processes of steel plate storage areas through highly integrated automation technology and intelligent management strategies, significantly improve storage area utilization and operating efficiency, and reduce manual intervention and labor load. The system is particularly suitable for shipyards and steel plant storage areas with a variety of steel plate specifications and complex storage requirements.

[0046] In this embodiment, the system mainly includes the following core modules and functions:

[0047] Steel plate identification and storage module: This module integrates high-precision scanning equipment and can be fixed in the unloading area or moved with the crane to quickly and accurately identify the position, shape and other information of the steel plates entering the storage area. After identification, the steel plates are safely transported to the centering area through the electromagnet or permanent magnet control system equipped by the automated crane. In the centering area, a special 45-degree roller device is used to rotate and adjust the steel plates to align at one angle to achieve regular processing of the steel plates, ensuring neatness and efficiency of subsequent storage.

[0048] Warehouse area division module: This module divides the warehouse area into unloading area, unloading buffer area, centering area, temporary storage area and formal storage area. According to the specifications, thickness, length and project requirements of the steel plates, a flexible storage strategy is formulated to achieve classified storage and efficient management of steel plates. The division rules of the temporary storage area are differentiated according to the thickness and length of the steel plates to optimize space utilization and reduce deflection problems. This division rule is best divided according to the customer's steel plate specification statistics. If there is no relevant statistical data, it can be initially divided into multiple gears based on 10 mm thickness and 1 meter length.

[0049] Informationized warehousing module: This module uses a visual recognition system to identify the spray number on the steel plate, or uses a scanning device to read the delivery note information, and enters the detailed information of the steel plate into the warehouse management system. It realizes the informationized management of the steel plate and provides data support for subsequent storage, transportation and delivery.

[0050] Automatic crane: Equipped with electromagnet or permanent magnet control system, high-precision weighing system and advanced visual recognition system, it can realize automatic handling, quantity verification and accurate lifting of steel plates. When handling multiple steel plates lifting tasks, it simulates manual operation methods and combines visual recognition and weighing systems to ensure the lifting quantity is accurate.

[0051] Warehouse management system: Intelligently generate a list of steel plate handling tasks based on steel plate specifications, project requirements and warehouse division rules. Achieve precise control of automated cranes to complete the full process management of steel plate storage, unloading and outbound operations. Specially designed sorting algorithms ensure that steel plates are hoisted to the official storage area in descending order, effectively avoiding deflection problems and improving storage stability.

[0052] Specifically, for a single lifting operation: based on the task list generated by the warehouse management system, the steel plate handling task is directly executed, and the process is relatively straightforward.

[0053] For the lifting of multiple steel plates: For situations where multiple steel plates need to be lifted at one time, a solution combining visual recognition and a weighing system is introduced. The crane is equipped with a camera (a camera is installed on the crane end beam or under the driver's cab) to monitor the lifting process and adjust the magnetic attraction through an electromagnet (electropermanent magnet) to try to pick up the steel plates. The weighing system is used to preliminarily confirm the number of steel plates. If it exceeds the predetermined number, the magnetic attraction is gradually reduced. At the same time, the visual recognition system monitors signs of steel plates falling and stops reducing the magnetic attraction in time. Finally, the combination of visual recognition and weighing data can accurately control the number of steel plates being lifted to ensure safe and stable lifting. After the quantity is confirmed, the magnetic attraction is increased in the reverse direction to perform the task of reversing or outgoing storage.

[0054] The main process flow of the present invention is as follows:

[0055] Steel plate storage: Steel plates are transported to the unloading area by other means of transportation and scanned and identified by the steel plate identification storage module. Based on the identification results, the automated crane transports the steel plates to the centering area for regularization. After the steel plate information is entered into the warehouse management system, it is transported to the temporary storage area according to the classification rules, and finally transported to the formal storage area in sequence.

[0056] Steel plate transfer: According to the task list generated by the warehouse management system, the automated crane performs the steel plate transfer operation to ensure the optimization and adjustment of the warehouse layout.

[0057] Steel plate outbound delivery: Also based on the task list, the automated crane accurately lifts the designated steel plate to complete the outbound delivery process.

[0058] Embodiment 2

[0059] like Figure 2 As shown, the present invention provides a steel plate storage area automation management method, which uses the steel plate storage area automation management system of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, and specifically includes:

[0060] Step S1: Use the steel plate identification and warehousing module to scan and identify the position and shape of the steel plate, and use a crane to transport the steel plate to the centering area for regularization processing;

[0061] Step S2: using the warehouse area division module to divide the warehouse area into a discharge area, a discharge buffer area, a centering area, a temporary storage area and a formal storage area, and classify and store the steel plates according to the steel plate specifications and project requirements;

[0062] Step S3: Identify the spray number on the steel plate or scan the delivery note through the information storage module, and enter the steel plate information into the warehouse management system;

[0063] Step S4: the warehouse management system generates a steel plate handling task list according to steel plate specifications, project requirements and warehouse area division rules;

[0064] Step S5: The automated crane completes the steel plate warehousing, unloading and outbound operations according to the task list. When lifting multiple steel plates, the visual recognition system and weighing system are combined to achieve precise handling.

[0065] As an optional specific implementation method, during the warehousing process of steel plates, a strategy is set to give priority to processing the steel plates on the middle platform area. If there are unfinished tasks on the middle platform area, the steel plates will be temporarily stored in the temporary storage area.

[0066] Furthermore, the priority treatment strategy for the middle platform aims to improve the efficiency and regularity of steel plates entering the warehouse. By aligning the steel plates in the middle platform, it can ensure that the steel plates reach a certain regular state before entering the warehouse, which is convenient for subsequent storage and lifting.

[0067] Specifically, when the steel plate is delivered to the designated location (unloading area) by other transportation tools, the steel plate is first identified and put into storage. After the identification is completed, the warehouse management system will control the crane to automatically suck up the steel plate and transport it to the centering area equipped with 45-degree rollers according to the status of the steel plate and the real-time situation of the warehouse area. If there is no task in progress on the centering area, the alignment operation will be carried out directly; if there is already a task in progress, the system will give priority to the steel plate on the centering area to ensure that it is aligned as soon as possible and ready for storage.

[0068] Furthermore, the temporary storage area temporary storage strategy is designed to avoid congestion caused by steel plates waiting in the unloading area when there are unfinished tasks on the central platform area, while ensuring that the steel plates can be stored safely and orderly. The technical solution designs a temporary storage area as a transfer station.

[0069] Specifically, when there are unfinished tasks on the alignment area, the newly arrived steel plates will be temporarily stored in the temporary storage area. The division rules of the temporary storage area are based on the thickness and length of the steel plates to better utilize the space and reduce the mutual impact between steel plates of different specifications. Once the tasks on the alignment area are completed, the system will immediately arrange to transport the steel plates in the temporary storage area to the alignment area for alignment, and store them in the formal storage area according to certain rules.

[0070] Through the implementation of the above strategies, the technical solution effectively solved the problems of chaos and inefficiency in the steel plate storage process. It not only ensures that the steel plates reach a certain regular state before storage, but also can flexibly adjust the storage plan according to the actual situation of the warehouse area, improve the utilization rate and production efficiency of the warehouse area. At the same time, the technical solution also reduces the number and workload of crane operators, saving labor costs for the enterprise.

[0071] As an optional specific implementation method, during the process of steel plates being shipped out of the warehouse and being transported to the warehouse, the warehouse management system ensures that the steel plates are lifted to the formal storage area in order from large to small, so as to reduce the deflection problem of the steel plates along the length direction.

[0072] Specifically, the warehouse management system will first generate an optimized work list based on the specifications of the steel plates in the warehouse area, project requirements, etc. In this list, the lifting order of the steel plates has been reasonably sorted according to the size of the steel plates (mainly length and thickness) to ensure that large-sized steel plates can be lifted and processed first.

[0073] When the crane starts to perform the outbound or reverse warehouse task, the warehouse management system will monitor the crane's working status in real time and guide the crane to the designated steel plate storage location according to the instructions of the work list. During the lifting process, the crane will first try to lift and move the largest steel plate that is ranked first in the list. In this way, as the task progresses, the larger steel plates will be moved to the formal storage area first, leaving enough space for the subsequent movement of smaller steel plates.

[0074] If steel plates that are not arranged in order are found on the centering platform or temporary storage area, the warehouse management system will promptly adjust the crane's lifting path to ensure that the steel plates can be transported to the formal storage area in order from large to small. This orderly lifting method effectively avoids the deflection problem caused by small-sized steel plates being pressed under large-sized steel plates, and also improves the efficiency of steel plate outbound and reverse storage.

[0075] In summary, through the intelligent management of the warehouse management system and the precise operation of the crane, this technical solution successfully achieved the orderly lifting of steel plates during the process of outbound and inbound transportation, significantly reduced the deflection problem of steel plates along the length direction, and improved the efficiency and accuracy of warehouse management.
