AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing warehousing systems, the handling robots have a single way of picking up goods and cannot be flexibly configured, resulting in some equipment not being effectively utilized, affecting the efficiency of material box transportation. In addition, the handling robots and docking equipment are not connected smoothly, increasing costs.

Method used

A stacked bin picking system is provided, comprising a bin stacking storage area, a bin picking robot and inbound and outbound conveying equipment. The bin picking robot has a telescopic fork module and a lifting and rotating frame module, which can fork single-layer or multi-layer bins and realize the disassembly and conveying of multi-layer bins through a destacking device, which is suitable for different stacking requirements.

Benefits of technology

It improves the efficiency of material box transportation, enhances the applicability and space utilization of the material box picking robot, realizes the efficient coordination between the material box picking robot and other modules, and reduces the equipment cost.

Abstract

The present application relates to the technical field of intelligent warehousing, and discloses a stacked bin sorting system and method and a sorting robot. The stacked bin sorting system comprises a bin stacking storage area, a bin sorting robot, a warehouse exit conveying apparatus, and a sorting and packing platform; the bin stacking storage area is configured to store bins, and the bins are stacked and placed on the ground; the bin sorting robot is configured to destack and sort out bins waiting for warehouse exit and carry said bins to the warehouse exit conveying apparatus; the bin sorting robot has the function of single-layer temporary storage of the bins and / or stacking of the temporarily stored bins; the warehouse exit conveying apparatus is configured to receive the single-layer or multi-layer stacked bins waiting for warehouse exit carried by the bin sorting robot and to convey said bins to the sorting and packing platform; and when the multi-layer stacked bins waiting for warehouse exit need to be conveyed, the warehouse exit conveying apparatus is provided with a bin destacking device. The present application involves multiple bin pickup and bin storage modes suitable for different bin stacking amount requirements, and the bin sorting robot works in concert with different warehouse exit and warehouse entry apparatuses, thereby improving the conveying efficiency.
