Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of warehouse management, and in particular to an integrated data analysis device for warehouses with return risk early warning. Background Technology
[0002] Modern warehouses generally adopt digital fully automated management systems. Their standard outbound process is as follows: after receiving order information, the management system uses a loading mechanism (such as a robotic arm) to take the designated goods from the storage location and place them on the conveyor belt. The conveyor belt then transports the goods and loads them onto a transport vehicle to complete the outbound process.
[0003] However, this highly automated process has a critical blind spot in state perception. During the process of goods being clamped and transported by the loading mechanism and during the storage of goods in the warehouse, the goods themselves may be damaged (such as deformed, broken, or damaged packaging) due to factors such as abnormal equipment operation, accidental collision or stacking pressure. Because existing systems primarily focus on process execution (picking, moving, and placing), they lack mechanisms for real-time and effective detection of the physical condition of goods (especially damage). As a result, damaged goods during automated operations cannot be identified and intercepted in a timely manner, and thus enter subsequent transmission and loading stages unnoticed, ultimately being shipped out as "qualified products." This outflow of damaged goods not only violates quality management principles but also triggers a series of negative impacts in subsequent stages. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a data analysis device for integrated warehouses with return risk warning, which sorts out goods with damaged outer packaging through a visual inspection mechanism, thereby reducing the risk of returns due to product quality issues.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by the integrated data analysis device for lake warehouses with return risk early warning disclosed in this utility model is: The device includes a first conveyor belt, a second conveyor belt, and a vision inspection mechanism. One end of the first conveyor belt is equipped with a barcode scanning device, and the other end of the first conveyor belt is equipped with a material pushing mechanism. One end of the second conveyor belt is close to one end of the first conveyor belt. The second conveyor belt is inclined and has a transparent plate running through its middle. The other end of the second conveyor belt is equipped with a sorting mechanism, an OK shipping area, and an NG shipping area. The vision inspection mechanism photographs five sides of the goods and a sixth side of the goods through the transparent plate.
[0006] As a preferred embodiment, the system further includes a control system, an identification system, and a detection system. The pushing mechanism and the sorting mechanism are both electrically connected to the control system, the identification system and the detection system are both electrically connected to the control system, the barcode scanning device is electrically connected to the identification system, and the visual inspection mechanism is electrically connected to the detection system.
[0007] As a preferred embodiment, the visual inspection mechanism includes two symmetrical first cameras, a second camera, a third camera, a fourth camera, and a fifth camera. The two first cameras respectively photograph the first and second sides of the goods, the second camera photographs the third side of the goods, the third camera photographs the fourth side of the goods, the fourth camera photographs the fifth side of the goods, and the fifth camera photographs the sixth side of the goods through a transparent plate.
[0008] As a preferred embodiment, the pushing mechanism includes a pushing cylinder, the output shaft of which is fixedly connected to a pushing plate, and the output shaft of the pushing cylinder pushes the pushing plate closer to the second conveyor belt.
[0009] As a preferred embodiment, the pushing mechanism includes a sorting cylinder, the output shaft of which is fixedly connected to a sorting plate, and the output shaft of the sorting cylinder pushes the sorting plate closer to the NG shipping area.
[0010] The beneficial effects of the integrated data analysis device for warehouses with return risk early warning disclosed in this utility model are: An external loading mechanism places goods on the first conveyor belt, which then transfers them to a pushing mechanism. The pushing mechanism then pushes the goods to the second conveyor belt, which moves the goods closer to the OK and NG shipping areas. During this process, as the goods pass by a barcode scanner and a vision inspection mechanism, the barcode scanner scans the goods' QR code to obtain the product information and ID recorded by the management system. The vision inspection mechanism scans six sides of the goods to detect bumps and surface damage. If there is no damage, the goods are marked OK on the ID; if damaged, they are marked NG. If the goods are marked OK, the second conveyor belt continues to push them into the OK shipping area. If they are marked NG, the second conveyor belt stops, and the sorting mechanism pushes them into the NG shipping area. This process sorts damaged goods before they leave the warehouse, ensuring the quality of shipped products and reducing the return rate due to quality issues. Attached Figure Description

[0015] The present invention will be further described and illustrated below with reference to specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings: Please refer to Figures 1-3 .
[0016] The present invention discloses a data analysis device for integrated warehouse and lake warehouse with return risk early warning, comprising a first conveyor belt 2, a second conveyor belt 3, a visual inspection mechanism 6, a control system, an identification system and a detection system; In this embodiment, the first conveyor belt 2 and the second conveyor belt 3 are preferably both roller conveyor belts. One end of the first conveyor belt 2 is provided with a barcode scanning device, which is electrically connected to the identification system. The scanning device is used to scan the QR code on the goods and send it to the identification system. The identification system extracts the product information and ID of the goods. The product information of the goods includes the length and width dimensions of the six sides of the goods.
[0017] The other end of the first conveyor belt 2 is provided with a pushing mechanism 4, and one end of the second conveyor belt 3 is close to one end of the first conveyor belt 2. The pushing mechanism 4 includes a pushing cylinder 41. The pushing cylinder 41 is fixedly connected to one side of the first conveyor belt 2. The pushing cylinder 41 of the pushing mechanism 4 is electrically connected to the control system. The output shaft of the pushing cylinder 41 is fixedly connected to a pushing plate 42. The output shaft of the pushing cylinder 41 pushes the pushing plate 42 closer to the second conveyor belt 3. Furthermore, a first infrared sensor is fixedly connected to the pusher cylinder 41. The first infrared sensor faces upwards from the pusher plate 42. The first infrared sensor is electrically connected to the control system. When there is cargo in front of the pusher plate 42, it will block the first infrared sensor. The first infrared sensor will transmit the blocked signal to the control system.
[0018] The second conveyor belt 3 is laid at an angle, and a transparent plate 31 runs through the middle of the second conveyor belt 3. Some rollers on the middle of the second conveyor belt 3 are removed to make the middle of the second conveyor belt 3 free up an installation position. The transparent plate 31 is placed in the installation position and fixedly connected to the second conveyor belt 3. The inclined second conveyor belt 3 allows the goods to slide across the transparent plate 31.
[0019] The other end of the second conveyor belt 3 is equipped with a sorting mechanism 5, an OK shipping area and an NG shipping area, with the sorting mechanism 5 and the NG shipping area located on both sides of the second conveyor belt 3 respectively. Furthermore, the pushing mechanism 4 includes a sorting cylinder 51; the output shaft of the sorting cylinder 51 is fixedly connected to a sorting plate 52, the sorting cylinder 51 of the sorting mechanism 5 is electrically connected to the control system, and the output shaft of the sorting cylinder 51 pushes the sorting plate 52 closer to the NG shipping area. Furthermore, a second infrared sensor is fixedly connected to the sorting cylinder 51. The second infrared sensor faces upwards from the sorting plate 52. When there are goods in front of the sorting plate 52, the second infrared sensor will be blocked, and the blocked signal will be transmitted to the control system.
[0020] The visual inspection unit 6 photographs five sides of the goods, and the visual inspection unit 6 photographs the sixth side of the goods through the transparent plate 31. The visual inspection unit 6 includes two symmetrical first cameras 61, second cameras 62, third cameras 63, fourth cameras 64 and fifth cameras 65. Furthermore, the two first cameras 61 are fixedly connected to both sides of the first conveyor belt 2 respectively. The first cameras 61 are located between the barcode scanning device and the material pushing mechanism 4. The two first cameras 61 are opposite to each other, and the two first cameras 61 respectively photograph the first side and the second side of the goods. Furthermore, the second camera 62 is fixedly connected to the other end of the first conveyor belt 2, and the second camera 62 captures the third side of the goods; Furthermore, the third camera 63 is suspended above the first conveyor belt 2, and the third camera 63 photographs the fourth side of the goods; Furthermore, the fourth camera 64 is fixedly connected to one end of the second conveyor belt 3, and the fourth camera 64 photographs the fifth side of the goods; Furthermore, the fifth camera 65 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the second conveyor belt 3. The fifth camera 65 is located below the transparent plate 31, and the fifth camera 65 photographs the sixth side of the goods through the transparent plate 31.
[0021] The first camera 61, the second camera 62, the third camera 63, the fourth camera 64, and the fifth camera 65 are all electrically connected to the detection system, and the identification system and the detection system are both electrically connected to the control system.
[0022] For ease of understanding, the specific process of this embodiment is described below. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-4 The cargo management method in this embodiment includes: 101. Send the information of the goods to be shipped to the management system. The management system allocates the goods and marks them with IDs. Then, the goods are transferred to the first conveyor belt 2 by the external loading mechanism to start the shipping process.
[0023] 102. The first conveyor belt 2 carries the goods from one end of the first conveyor belt 2 to the other end of the first conveyor belt 2. Along the way, the goods pass through the barcode scanning device, which scans the QR code on the goods and sends it to the identification system. The identification system reads the product information (length and width dimensions of the six sides) and ID of the goods. The identification system sends the read product information and ID to the detection system through the control system.
[0024] 103. During the journey, the cargo passes through the first camera 61, the second camera 62, and the third camera 63. The first camera 61, the second camera 62, and the third camera 63 capture images of the cargo and transmit them to the inspection system. The inspection system measures the length and width of each face, determines whether there are any chipped corners caused by bumps, and inspects each face for any dents, pits, or damage. The inspection results of the first, second, third, and fourth faces of the cargo are marked in the cargo ID. If there is no damage, it is marked OK in the cargo ID; if there is damage, it is marked NG. When the goods move to the end of the first conveyor belt 2, they block the first infrared sensor. After receiving feedback from the first infrared sensor, the control system controls the pusher cylinder 41 to push the goods into the second conveyor belt 3 through the pusher plate 42. The second conveyor belt 3 carries the goods from one end to the other end, passing the fourth camera 64 along the way. When the goods pass over the transparent plate 31, they pass above the fifth camera 65. The fourth camera 64 and the fifth camera 65 capture images of the goods and transmit them to the detection system. The detection system measures the length and width of each surface, determines whether there are any missing corners caused by bumps, and detects whether there are any defects such as dents, pits and breaks on each surface. The detection results of the fifth and sixth surfaces of the goods are marked in the goods ID. If there is no damage, it is marked OK in the goods ID; if there is damage, it is marked NG. After completing the inspection, the visual inspection agency 6 sends the inspection results to the control system.
[0025] 104. When the goods move to the end of the second conveyor belt 3, the goods block the second infrared sensor. After receiving feedback from the second infrared sensor, the control system distinguishes between the goods and the sensor. If the goods are marked OK, the control system controls the second conveyor belt 3 to continue running and pushes the goods into the OK shipping area. The control system then feeds back the outbound information to the management system to complete the outbound process. If the goods are marked NG, the control system stops the second conveyor belt 3 and then controls the sorting cylinder 51 to push the goods into the NG shipping area through the sorting plate 52.
[0026] 105. After damaged goods are pushed into the NG shipping area, the control system marks the goods ID as a first inspection. At the same time, the control system transmits the goods ID to the management system, which records the damage record of the goods. The management system matches a goods of the same type with the goods ID to start a new round of outbound process. In the new round of outbound process, the goods ID belongs to the second inspection, so that the loss of the goods is recorded in the management system.
[0027] This utility model provides an integrated data analysis device for warehouses with return risk early warning. An external feeding mechanism places goods on a first conveyor belt, which then transfers them to a pushing mechanism. The pushing mechanism then pushes the goods to a second conveyor belt, which moves the goods closer to the OK and NG shipping areas. During this process, as the goods pass by a barcode scanner and a visual inspection mechanism, the barcode scanner scans the goods' QR code to obtain the product information and ID recorded by the management system. The visual inspection mechanism scans six sides of the goods to detect bumps and surface damage. If there is no damage, the goods are marked OK on the ID; if damaged, they are marked NG. If the goods are marked OK, the second conveyor belt continues to run and pushes them into the OK shipping area. If the goods are marked NG, the second conveyor belt stops running and the sorting mechanism pushes them into the NG shipping area. This achieves sorting of damaged goods before they leave the warehouse, ensuring the quality of shipped products and reducing the return rate due to quality issues.
[0028] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
