Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of cargo management equipment, and in particular to an automatic shipping device. Background Art
[0002] At present, automatic delivery devices generally use motor-driven crawlers or rotating coil springs to achieve automatic delivery. The number of each commodity stored is limited (usually 10-20), which is not suitable for selling small-packaged trial products. If existing vending machines are used to sell such products, the cost will be high. In addition, existing vending machines rely on precise control of the motor to achieve delivery. The motor rotates at a fixed angle to achieve crawler displacement and spring rotation, and the accuracy of delivery cannot be guaranteed. Furthermore, in terms of manufacturing cost, in order to achieve precise control of the motor, the above control method must use a stepper motor, which is relatively costly.

[0052] Embodiment 1:
[0053] An automatic delivery device, characterized in that: it includes a storage cavity 12 for storing commodities and goods, a rotating tallying mechanism matching the storage cavity 12 is provided in the storage cavity 12, the rotating tallying mechanism is used to push the commodities and goods in the storage cavity 12, and a delivery port 14 for delivering commodities and goods is provided on the storage cavity 12, the two ends of the rotating tallying mechanism are respectively movably inserted into the shells on both sides of the storage cavity 12, and a replenishment port 28 is provided on the shell, and also includes a drive control device, which is used to control the rotary tallying machine to drive the commodities and goods to be delivered.
[0054] Preferably, the rotary tallying mechanism includes a transmission shaft 23 movably inserted in the rotating hole of the shell on both sides of the storage cavity 12, and a columnar inner core 2 is installed on the transmission shaft 23 in the storage cavity 12. The storage cavity 12 is a cylindrical cavity coaxial with the inner core 2, and a gap is provided between the outer wall and each end face of the inner core 2 and the inner wall of the storage cavity 12 at the corresponding position, and a first limiting protrusion 27 is fixedly installed on the inner core protrusion 26 of the circumferential outer wall of the inner core 2, and the first limiting protrusion 27 is abutted and cooperated with a second limiting protrusion 31 fixedly installed on the shell. On the outer wall of the inner core 2 on both sides of the first limiting protrusion 27, a plurality of replenishing cavities 25 for placing commodity goods 35 are evenly spaced along its circumference, and one side of the replenishing cavity 25 is the inner core side wall 22, and the radial length of the replenishing cavity 25 is greater than the radial length of the replenishing port 28.
[0055] The main function of providing the first limiting protrusion 27 and the second limiting protrusion 31 is to stop the inner core 2 from rotating when it reaches the position along with the rotation axis.
[0056] Preferably, the shell is a detachable shell, and the shell is composed of an outer shell 1, a cover plate 3 fixed to the side of the outer shell 1 with an opening through the outer shell positioning hole 20 and the positioning protrusion, and a plurality of fan-shaped replenishment ports 28 and cover plate fixing holes 32 coaxially arranged with the rotating tallying mechanism are provided on the cover plate 3 along its surface circumference, and the second limiting protrusion 31 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the cover plate 3.
[0057] A circular protrusion 37 is provided at the center of the bottom of the cover plate 3, and a circular countersunk hole 30 is provided at the center of the circular protrusion 37.
[0058] A plurality of shell fixing holes 21 and cover plate positioning protrusions 33 are provided around the cover plate 3, which can fix the cover plate 3 on the shell 1 to form a whole with the shell 1. A plurality of fan-shaped replenishment openings 28 are also provided around the cover plate 3, which can replenish the replenishment cavity 25 of the inner core 2 by leaking out. Support columns 29 are provided between the fan-shaped replenishment openings 28, and a second limiting protrusion 31 is provided on one of the support columns 29. The second limiting protrusion 31 is used in conjunction with the first limiting protrusion 27 on the inner core 2. The main function is that the inner core 2 will stop rotating when it rotates forwards or backwards with the rotating shaft to this position.
[0059] A circular countersunk hole 30 (i.e. the aforementioned rotating hole) is provided at the center of the cover plate 3. After the cover plate 3 is fixed to the shell 1, the circular countersunk hole 30 is concentric with the circular through hole 13 on the shell 1 (i.e. the aforementioned rotating hole) and is used to fix the rotating axis of the inner core 2.
[0060] Preferably, the drive control device includes a drive mechanism for driving the rotary tallying mechanism to rotate, a main control circuit board 4, and a detection component for detecting the shipping status of the commodity goods 35.
[0061] The innovation of this application lies in the mechanical structure. The control part of this application adopts the existing technology, which is not included in the protection scope of the application. It belongs to the equipment and technology that are well known to technicians in this field and can be directly purchased and used.
[0062] like Fig.31 As shown, the main controller microcontroller model on the main control circuit board 4 is STM32ZET6.
[0063] Preferably, the driving mechanism includes a driven synchronous wheel 9 fixedly connected to the end of the transmission shaft 23 extending outside the housing, a driving motor 7 fixed to the housing through a driving motor 7 seat 6, a driving synchronous wheel 8 fixedly connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 7, the driven synchronous wheel 9 and the driving synchronous wheel 8 are connected by a synchronous belt 10, and the driving motor 7 is connected to the main control circuit board 4 and a main power supply 11 through a control line. Fig.28 Motor drive circuit diagram: Control chip model: L9170
[0064] The input terminals in1 and in2 of the chip are connected to pins 46 and 45 of the unit controller respectively, and the output terminal P10 of the chip is connected to the DC drive motor 7. When the input signal of in1 is 1 and the input signal of in2 is 0, the motor rotates forward. When the input signal of in1 is 0 and the input signal of in2 is 1, the motor rotates reversely.
[0065] Preferably, the detection component includes a left partition 16 and a right partition 15 fixedly installed at the delivery port 14, and an infrared detection circuit board 5 is fixedly installed on one side of the right partition 15 through a detection circuit board fixing column 19. An infrared detection circuit board 5 is provided with an infrared reflection tube 34 on the side surface facing the delivery port 14, and a left plate detection through hole 18 and a right plate detection through hole 17 for the infrared reflection tube 34 signal to pass through are provided on the left partition 16 and the right partition 15 of the delivery port 14 directly opposite to the infrared reflection tube 34, and the infrared detection circuit board 5 is connected to the signal input end of the main control circuit board 4.
[0066] like Fig.30 , Communication bus circuit diagram: U3 is the communication chip model: TJ1050
[0067] CAN_TX is the signal transmitting end and CAN_RX is the signal receiving end. These two ends are respectively connected to the microcontroller (for example, connected to pins 33 and 32 of the unit controller), and CANH and CANL are connected to the communication line.
[0068] When the microcontroller transmits a signal through CAN_TX, the signal is compiled by the communication chip and sent to the two ends of CANH and CANL, and then transmitted to other communication chips through the connecting line.
[0069] When the communication signal is received at both CANH and CANL ends, the signal is compiled by the communication chip and sent to CAN_RX, and then sent to the microcontroller by CAN_RX.
[0070] The maximum reflection distance of the infrared reflection tube 34 can be adjusted and set. The infrared reflection tube 34 includes an infrared transmitting end and an infrared receiving end. The detection through hole will not block the infrared light, so it will not reflect the infrared light. When goods pass through the delivery port 14, the infrared reflection tube 34 is blocked by the goods, and the plastic film on the surface of the goods can reflect the infrared light. The infrared detection circuit board 5 is connected to the signal input end of the main control circuit board 4, and the infrared detection signal can be sent to the main control circuit board 4. The main control circuit board 4 can detect the successful delivery of the device by judging the signal.
[0071] Preferably, the storage cavity 12 is coaxially arranged with a central axis of the rotary tallying mechanism and both are horizontal axes, and the delivery port 14 is arranged obliquely below the storage cavity 12 .
[0072] Shipping process:
[0073] 1. After replenishment is completed, the goods are loaded into the replenishment cavity 25 of the inner core 2, and the part provided with the first limiting protrusion is blocked so that the goods cannot be stored. The first limiting protrusion is located above the delivery port 14, blocking the delivery port 14 to prevent the goods from falling out.
[0074] 2. After receiving the smoke-emission command, the main control circuit board 4 controls the motor to rotate and starts the infrared detection circuit board 5 below the delivery port 14. The infrared transmitter on the infrared detection circuit board 5 emits infrared light, but because there is no shielding that can reflect infrared light at the delivery port 14, the infrared receiver cannot receive infrared light. The driving motor 7 drives the inner core 2 to rotate counterclockwise through the synchronous belt 10, and the limit partition at the blocked replenishment cavity 25 gradually leaves the delivery port 14, and the partition at the next replenishment cavity 25 for storing goods gradually rotates to the delivery port 14. Fig.29 Among them, U5 and U6 are integrated infrared transmitter and receiver heads, which can transmit and receive infrared signals; U4 is the operational amplifier chip of the infrared detection part, model LM393; PIN_1 and PIN_2 are connected to pins 39 and 21 of the unit controller respectively; LM393_OUT1 and LM393_OUT2 are connected to pins 38 and 22 of the unit controller;
[0075] When the signal of pins 39 and 21 is 1, 3.3V power is provided to the infrared transmitter VCC_3.3V, and the infrared transmitter emits infrared light. The infrared light is reflected to the infrared receiver, and the infrared receiver sends the signal to the operational amplifier chip, which processes the signal and sends it to the controller through LM393.
[0076] 3. After the replenishment cavity 25 for storing goods rotates to the delivery port 14, the goods inside are affected by gravity and fall downward, blocking the delivery detection through hole. The infrared light emitted by the infrared detection circuit board 5 is reflected because it is blocked by the goods, and the infrared light is reflected to the infrared receiving head.
[0077] 4. The goods continue to fall downward under the influence of gravity and leave the delivery detection through hole, and the infrared detection circuit board 5 returns to a state where the infrared receiving head cannot receive infrared light.
[0078] 5. The infrared detection circuit board 5 sends the transmitted and received information to the main control circuit board 4. The main control circuit board 4 determines whether the shipment is successful based on the signal. If the shipment is unsuccessful, the motor continues to rotate until the shipment is successful.
[0079] 6. After the shipment is successful, the main control circuit board controls the motor to rotate clockwise for a certain distance and then stop, to prevent the goods from being affected by external forces such as shaking and accidental shipment.
[0080] Replenishment process:
[0081] 1. After the equipment enters the replenishment process, the main control circuit board 4 controls the drive motor 7 to rotate in the opposite direction. The drive motor 7 drives the inner core 2 to rotate in the opposite direction through the synchronous belt 10 and the synchronous wheel until the first limit protrusion 27 of the inner core 2 collides with the second limit protrusion 31 (or the cover limit protrusion) of the outer shell 1, and then the inner core 2 stops rotating. After the inner core 2 stops rotating, the drive motor 7 is locked, causing the drive motor 7 to be blocked. After the drive motor 7 is blocked, the current detection circuit detects that the current of the drive motor 7 increases instantly, and feeds back the information to the main control circuit board 4. The main control circuit board 4 controls the drive motor 7 to stop rotating.
[0082] 2. After the driving motor 7 stops rotating, the goods are placed into the replenishment cavity 25 for replenishment.
[0083] There is no innovation in the circuit control part, and the commonly used control circuit boards and controllers on the market can be used. The programming of the control language can be directly implemented by using the existing simple programming. It is obvious to those skilled in the art. The relevant description of the circuit and the control part is provided as follows:
[0084] 1. The circuit and control part is mainly composed of a main power supply 11, a main control circuit board 4, an infrared detection circuit board 5, and a drive motor 7. The main control circuit board 4 is mainly composed of a motor drive circuit and a current detection circuit. The infrared detection circuit board 5 is mainly an infrared detection circuit composed of multiple infrared reflective tubes 34. Each infrared reflective tube includes an infrared transmitting end and an infrared receiving end. The infrared transmitting end can emit specific infrared light. When there is an object blocking the infrared reflective tube 34, the surface of the object can reflect the infrared light and reflect the infrared light to the infrared receiving end; when there is no object blocking the infrared reflective tube 34, the infrared light cannot be reflected to the infrared receiving end. Therefore, the signal from the infrared receiving end can be used to determine whether there is an object blocking the infrared reflective tube (general technology) through the program.
[0085] 2. The motor driving circuit can control the motor to rotate forward, reverse and stop; the current detection circuit can monitor the current of the driving motor 7 in real time. When the driving motor 7 is blocked, the current of the driving motor 7 will increase instantly, and the motor can be controlled by the program to stop the motor; the infrared detection circuit includes a plurality of infrared reflection tubes 34, and its infrared transmitting end can emit specific infrared light at a fixed time according to the requirements of the program, and its infrared receiving end can monitor the reflected infrared light in real time. The infrared detection circuit board 5 is set at the delivery port 14, and the program can be used to determine whether the delivery is successful.
[0086] 3. Shipping process:
[0087] The main control board controls the driving motor 7 to rotate forward, and the driving motor 7 drives the inner core 2 to rotate forward through the synchronous belt 10 and the synchronous wheel. After the storage partition containing the goods rotates to the delivery port 14, the goods fall downward due to the influence of gravity. Because the infrared detection circuit board 5 is set at the delivery port 14, the goods will inevitably block the infrared reflective tube 34 during the downward fall. Therefore, when the motor driver detects that the infrared receiving end receives the infrared light, the motor is controlled to stop rotating, and the delivery is successful. After the process is completed, the driving motor 7 can be controlled to rotate in the opposite direction at a smaller angle, so that the next delivery partition containing the goods is away from the delivery port 14 by a certain angle, which can prevent accidental delivery due to the shaking of the inner core 2 and the outer shell 1.
[0088] Special case: When there is no product in the equipment or the product has been sold out, if the main control board still issues a command to let the drive motor 7 rotate in the forward direction, the drive motor 7 will continue to rotate until the limit protrusion of the inner core 2 collides with the limit protrusion 38 of the outer shell (or the limit protrusion 33 of the cover plate). After the limit protrusion collides, the inner core 2 stops rotating. After the inner core 2 stops rotating, the motor locks, causing the motor to stall. After the motor stalls, the current detection circuit detects that the current of the drive motor 7 increases instantly, and feeds back the information to the main control circuit board 4. The main control circuit board 4 controls the motor to stop rotating.
[0089] Embodiment 2: The difference from Embodiment 1 is that:
[0090] Preferably, the storage cavity 12 is coaxially arranged with the central axis of the rotary tallying mechanism and both are vertical axes, the delivery port 14 is arranged at the bottom of the storage cavity 12, and the driving mechanism is installed at the bottom of the shell.
[0091] The shipping equipment of Example 1 is a vertical structure, which is placed vertically when in use. When placed in batches, multiple devices can be placed side by side for use, occupying less space. Most of the structure of the shipping equipment of Example 2 is the same as the equipment structure of Example 1, except that it is placed horizontally, and goods are shipped from below. A picking space is provided below the shipping port 14 of Example 2 to facilitate users to pick up goods.

After the inner core stops rotating, the drive motor is locked, causing the drive motor to be blocked. After the drive motor is blocked, the current detection circuit detects that the current of the drive motor increases instantly, and feeds back the information to the main control circuit board, and the main control circuit board controls the drive motor to stop rotating; After the driving motor stops rotating, put the goods into the replenishment cavity for replenishment; Shipping process of automatic shipping equipment: After the replenishment is completed, the goods are loaded into the replenishment cavity of the inner core, and the portion provided with the first limiting protrusion is blocked and therefore the goods cannot be stored; the first limiting protrusion is located above the delivery port, blocking the delivery port to prevent the goods from falling out; After receiving the smoke emission command, the main control circuit board controls the driving motor to rotate and starts the infrared detection circuit board under the delivery port. The infrared transmitter on the infrared detection circuit board emits infrared light, but because there is no shielding that can reflect infrared light at the delivery port, the infrared receiver cannot receive the infrared light. After the replenishment cavity for storing goods rotates to the delivery port, the goods inside fall downward due to the influence of gravity, blocking the delivery detection through hole. The infrared light emitted by the infrared detection circuit board is reflected because it is blocked by the goods, and the infrared light is reflected to the infrared receiving head; The goods continue to fall downward under the influence of gravity and leave the delivery detection through hole, and the infrared detection circuit board returns to the state where the infrared receiving head cannot receive infrared light; The infrared detection circuit board sends the transmitted and received information to the main control circuit board, and the main control circuit board determines whether the shipment is successful based on the signal. If the shipment is unsuccessful, the drive motor continues to rotate until the shipment is successful. After the shipment is successful, the main control circuit board controls the drive motor to rotate clockwise for a certain distance and then stop, to prevent the goods from being affected by external forces of shaking and causing accidental shipment.
