[0024] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0025] As attached Figure 1-2 As shown, the vehicle body and pallet obstacle avoidance detection device of the four-way shuttle vehicle is characterized by: comprising a four-way shuttle vehicle 1, a pallet 3 with goods, a Y-direction track 22 and an X-direction track 21 that are staggered horizontally and vertically; the four-way shuttle vehicle 1 can run along the track direction of the Y-direction track 22 and the X-direction track 21; shelf supports 23 are arranged on both sides of each of the Y-direction tracks 22, and the pallet 3 is supported on the shelf supports 23; the four-way shuttle vehicle 1 is provided with a lifting structure 12 that can be raised and lowered;
[0026] When the lifting structure of the four-way shuttle 1 is not lifted, the four-way shuttle can freely shuttle under the pallet 3 when running along the Y track 22; the front and rear sides of the lifting structure 12 in the Y direction are respectively provided with a pallet Y+ distance detection sensor 14 and a Y- distance detection sensor 13; when the lifting structure 12 is in the lifted state, the Y+ distance detection sensor 14 and the Y- distance detection sensor 13 are flush with the height of the pallet 3 supported on the shelf support 23.
[0027] As attached Figure 1-3 As shown, the pallets on the shelf supports 23 are all carrying goods. When the lifting structure 12 of the four-way shuttle 1 is not lifted, there is a certain gap between the lifting structure 12 of the four-way shuttle 1 and the pallets 3 placed on the shelf supports 23, so that the four-way shuttle 1 can freely pass under the shelf supports 23 where the pallets are placed; when the four-way shuttle 1 is lifted, the lifting structure 12 of the four-way shuttle 1 lifts up the pallets 3 with goods, and cannot freely move under the pallets on the shelf supports 23. The lifting structure 12 of the four-way shuttle 1 is set at the top of the four-way shuttle 1, and the body 11 of the four-way shuttle 1 is below the lifting structure 12. The body 11 is provided with wheels that cooperate with the X-direction track 21 and the Y-direction track 22, so that the four-way shuttle 1 can run and walk on the X-direction track 21 and the Y-direction track 22; the body 11 will not rise with the lifting of the lifting structure 12.
[0028] As attached Figure 1-3As shown, the body 11 of the four-way shuttle 1 is provided with an X+ direction distance sensor 17 and an X- direction distance sensor 18 on the front and rear sides in the X direction respectively; the body 11 of the four-way shuttle 1 is provided with a Y+ direction distance sensor 16 and a Y- direction distance sensor 15 on the front and rear sides in the Y direction respectively; the Y+ distance detection sensor 14, the Y- distance detection sensor 13, the Y+ direction distance sensor 16, the Y- direction distance sensor 4215, the X+ direction distance sensor 17 and the X- direction distance sensor 18 are all laser distance measuring sensors; the laser distance measuring sensor can only detect other four-way shuttles or other obstacles at the same height as the laser distance measuring sensor; that is, when the Y+ distance detection sensor 14 and the Y- distance detection sensor 13 follow the lifting structure 12 to rise to the same height as the pallet 3 placed on the shelf support 23, the Y+ distance detection sensor 14 and the Y- distance detection sensor 13 can detect that there is a pallet 3 on the shelf support 23 of the Y-direction track 22.
[0029] As attached Figure 3 As shown, when the lifting structure 12 is in the lifting state, the Y+ distance detection sensor 14 and the Y- distance detection sensor 13 respectively detect the distance between the pallet 3 on the shelf support 23 and the four-way shuttle 1 in the direction of each Y-direction track 22, that is, the distance between the pallet 3 on the shelf support 23 and the pallet 3 lifted up on the four-way shuttle 1.
[0030] When the four-way shuttle 1 runs on the X-direction track 21, the X+ direction distance sensor 17 and the X- direction distance sensor 18 respectively detect the distance between the four-way shuttle 1 and the obstacle in the positive and negative directions of the X-direction track; when the four-way shuttle 1 runs on the Y-direction track 22, the Y+ direction distance sensor 16 and the Y- direction distance sensor 15 respectively detect the distance between the four-way shuttle 1 and the obstacle in the positive and negative directions of the Y-direction track.
[0031] As attached Figure 1-3 As shown, when the four-way shuttle 1 lifts the pallet 3 with goods, the Y+ distance detection sensor 14 and the Y- distance detection sensor 13 are flush with the height of the pallet 3 supported on the shelf support 23. The Y+ distance detection sensor 14 and the Y- distance detection sensor 13 detect whether there are other pallets on the shelf support 23 on the Y-direction track 22 at the same height. When it is detected that the distance between other pallets and the vehicle body 11 is reduced to the deceleration setting value, the four-way shuttle 1 starts to decelerate; when the distance between other pallets and the vehicle body 11 is reduced to the braking setting value, the four-way shuttle 1 starts to brake and the speed is reduced to 0. At the same time, when the four-way shuttle 1 lifts the pallet with goods, the X+ direction distance sensor 17, the X- direction distance sensor 18, the Y+ direction distance sensor 16 and the Y- direction distance sensor 15 can also detect other four-way shuttles on the X-direction track and the Y-direction track that are not in the lifting state in real time.
[0032] Therefore, when the four-way shuttle 1 is not lifted, six laser distance measuring sensors detect the distance between the four-way shuttle 1 and other four-way shuttles in the moving direction to avoid collision; when the four-way shuttle 1 is lifted, four laser distance measuring sensors are on the body 11 of the four-way shuttle 1, and two laser distance measuring sensors are at the same height as the pallet 3 of the shelf support 23; when the four-way shuttle 1 is lifting the pallet with goods, when the four-way shuttle 1 is running on the X-direction track, the Y+ distance detection sensor 1 of the four-way shuttle 1 4 and Y-distance detection sensors 13 detect the pallets 3 on the shelf supports 23 of the Y-tracks on both sides and upload them to the inventory management system, so as to detect the errors in the placement of goods on the shelves in real time; when the four-way shuttle 1 is running on the Y-track, the Y+ distance detection sensor 14 and Y-distance detection sensor 13 of the four-way shuttle 1 detect whether there is a pallet 3 on the shelf support 23 in the moving direction of the four-way shuttle 1, and detect the distance, so as to decelerate and brake the four-way shuttle 1 to stop, so as to avoid the collision between the four-way shuttle 1 and the pallet on the shelf support 23.
[0033] As attached Figure 1-3 As shown, the Y+ distance detection sensor 14 and the Y- distance detection sensor 13 of the four-way shuttle 1 detect the distance between the pallet 3 on the shelf support 23 on the Y-track 22 and the four-way shuttle 1. By the length of the distance, it is determined how many goods are placed on the Y-track 22, that is, how many pallets are placed. If a pallets are detected, but b pallets are recorded on the network, when a and b are not equal, it can be determined that the placement of the goods and the pallets with goods is wrong, and it can be adjusted in time. The X+ direction distance sensor 17, the X- direction distance sensor 18, the Y+ direction distance sensor 16 and the Y- direction distance sensor 15 of the four-way shuttle 1 detect the distance data with other obstacles in the running direction of the four-way shuttle 1 in real time and transmit them to the PLC control module. When the first set value is reached, the deceleration is performed; when the second set value is reached, the brake is applied. The first set value is larger than the second set value, and the first set value and the second set value can be set according to the running requirements of the four-way shuttle 1.

[0036] As attached Figure 6-7 As shown, the obstacle avoidance sensor module is composed of a Y+ distance detection sensor 14, a Y- distance detection sensor 13, a Y+ direction distance sensor 16, a Y- direction distance sensor 15, an X+ direction distance sensor 17 and an X- direction distance sensor 18; the Y+ distance detection sensor 14, the Y- distance detection sensor 13, the Y+ direction distance sensor 16, the Y- direction distance sensor 4215, the X+ direction distance sensor 17 and the X- direction distance sensor 18 all include positive and negative power poles, a 458A port and a 458B port.
[0037] As attached Figure 4-10 As shown, the positive and negative poles of the discharge port end of the battery 41 in the battery module 4 are respectively electrically connected to the positive and negative poles of the DC IN end of the PLC-AP power supply switch module 51 in the PLC control module; the positive and negative poles of the DCOUT end of the PLC-AP power supply switch module 51 are electrically connected to the positive and negative poles of the power supply of the Y+ distance detection sensor 14, the Y- distance detection sensor 13, the Y+ direction distance sensor 16, the Y- direction distance sensor 15, the X+ direction distance sensor 17 and the X- direction distance sensor 18.
[0038] As attached Figure 8-10 As shown, the PLC control module includes a first communication module 53 and a second communication module 54; the 458A+ port of the first communication module 53 is electrically connected to the 458A ports of the Y+ direction distance sensor 16, the Y- direction distance sensor 15, the X+ direction distance sensor 17 and the X- direction distance sensor 18; the 458B- port of the first communication module 53 is electrically connected to the 458B ports of the Y+ direction distance sensor 16, the Y- direction distance sensor 15, the X+ direction distance sensor 17 and the X- direction distance sensor 18; the 458A+ port of the second communication module 54 is electrically connected to the 458A ports of the Y+ distance detection sensor 14 and the Y- distance detection sensor 13; the 458B- port of the second communication module 54 is electrically connected to the 458B ports of the Y+ distance detection sensor 14 and the Y- distance detection sensor 13.

For example, the number of pallets on a certain Y-axis track is uploaded to the network, and the information is reported to the inventory management system. The uploaded data is compared with the original recorded data on the network. When an error occurs in the comparison, it can be determined that the goods are placed incorrectly, thereby providing real-time feedback on inventory errors; adjustments can be made in a timely manner to correct errors.
[0040] As attached Figure 1-3 As shown, when the four-way shuttle 1 is running on the X-direction track 21 and the Y-direction track, once an obstacle appears in the running direction, the four-way shuttle 1 can automatically slow down and stop smoothly to avoid collision between the vehicles, and can also identify abnormal goods on the X-direction track 21. When the four-way shuttle 1 is running on the Y-direction track 22 with goods, the four-way shuttle 1 can not only identify obstacles in the running direction, but also identify the abnormal location of the goods when the goods inventory is abnormal, and the vehicle body can automatically slow down and stop to avoid collision between the cargo pallets and collision between the four-way shuttles 1.
[0041] Example
[0042] As attached Figure 1-3 As shown, four directional distance sensors are set in the four running directions of the four-way shuttle 1, and two distance detection sensors are set in the two directions of the Y-direction track of the lifting structure 12; the six sensors are connected to the PLC controller through 485 communication. When the software scheduling system of the four-way shuttle 1 has a vehicle path conflict or needs to avoid the intersection, the four-way shuttle 1 senses the vehicle in front through the bottom layer's own sensor, thereby performing a deceleration and stop action to avoid the collision of the vehicle with other vehicles; a working method is proposed:
[0043] When the four-way shuttle 1 is traveling in a certain direction, the laser distance sensor in the current direction will provide real-time feedback on the position of the obstacle from the four-way shuttle 1 in the direction of travel; when the obstacle is lower than the first set value from the vehicle body, the vehicle body 11 will decelerate slowly; during the deceleration process, the position values of the obstacle and the four-way shuttle 1 will be detected in real time. Once it is lower than the second set value for deceleration and stop, the speed of the vehicle body 11 will be slowed down to 0, so that the four-way shuttle 1 will stop slowly, and an alarm will be issued for the obstacle in front to prevent the collision of the vehicle body. Secondly, when the pallet is not placed accurately in the storage location, i.e., in the Y-direction track 22, the four-way shuttle 1 can detect whether there is a pallet in the storage location through the Y+ distance detection sensor 14 and the Y- distance detection sensor 13. Once a pallet is detected in front, the four-way shuttle 1 will automatically decelerate and stop, and issue an alarm to avoid collision between pallets and cause the goods to fall from the shelf and cause losses.
[0044] The above is only a description of the preferred embodiment of the present invention. Ordinary technicians in this technical field can make several modifications and optimizations based on the above disclosure without departing from the above basic principles. These improvements and optimizations should be regarded as the understood protection scope of the present invention.
