Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of warehousing technology, and in particular to a reconfigurable intelligent warehousing device. Background Art

[0002] With the progress and development of society, the application of computers is becoming more and more popular. At present, most companies use intelligent equipment in warehouse management, which effectively reduces manual collection and sorting, improves human resource savings, and improves accuracy. Therefore, it can be seen that the current warehousing technology basically meets people's needs, but there are still some problems.

[0003] Existing warehousing technology requires manual labor to obtain information, organize materials, and obtain them within a fixed time. Most warehousing technologies are single and the placement of goods is uniform, which reduces efficiency and accuracy. Existing technology is to set storage locations of different specifications in advance according to customer needs, but when the storage location requirements change during use, the equipment cannot be adjusted. Therefore, a reconfigurable intelligent warehousing equipment is urgently needed to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0004] The object of the present invention is to provide a reconfigurable intelligent storage device to solve the problem of adjusting storage space size proposed in the above background technology.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions: a reconfigurable intelligent storage equipment, comprising a shelf, wherein a warehouse partition is opened inside the shelf, a guide rail is arranged at the front end of the shelf, and a transfer mechanism is slidably connected to the upper end of the guide rail, the upper end of the transfer mechanism is movably connected to a control system, and the right end of the control system is movably connected to an RFID terminal, and the right end of the RFID terminal is fixedly mounted on an insert arm.

[0006] Preferably, slots with certain intervals are set in the shelf, and bin spacers can be inserted into the slots. The bin spacers have corresponding numbers, and the bin spacers can only be inserted into corresponding slots.

[0007] Preferably, the compartment spacer is attached with an RFID anti-metal tag, and the compartment spacer and slot numbers are written in the tag, and the RFID terminal reads the compartment spacer number.

[0008] Preferably, the storage shell is made of metal material, forming a metal closed cavity as a whole, and external labels cannot be scanned.

[0009] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: the reconfigurable intelligent storage equipment can store goods of different sizes and automatically read the corresponding information in the RFID anti-metal tag. The operator does not need to worry about time and can adjust the size of the storage space at any time. The system will control the operation of the storage, automatically calculate the number and size of the storage spaces inside the storage equipment, and store material boxes of different sizes in the corresponding storage spaces, thereby improving practicality and ease of use.

[0014] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only 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.

[0015] See also Figure 1-3 An embodiment of the present invention is a reconfigurable intelligent storage device, comprising a shelf 1, a warehouse partition 2 is provided inside the shelf 1, a guide rail 3 is provided at the front end of the shelf 1, and the guide rail 3 has an upper end slidingly connected to a transfer mechanism 4, the upper end of the transfer mechanism 4 is movably connected to a control system 7, and the right end of the control system 7 is movably connected to an RFID terminal 6, and the right end of the RFID terminal 6 is fixedly mounted on an arm 5.

[0016] Slots with certain intervals are set in the shelf 1, and the bin spacers 2 can be inserted into the slots. The bin spacers 2 have corresponding numbers, and the bin spacers 2 can only be inserted into the corresponding slots, so as to facilitate reading of information.

[0017] The compartment spacer 2 is attached with an RFID anti-metal tag 8, and the compartment spacer 2 and slot numbers are written in the tag. The RFID terminal 6 reads the number of the compartment spacer 2 to facilitate scanning of information.

[0018] The storage shell is made of metal material, forming a metal closed cavity as a whole, ensuring that no external labels will be scanned during the scanning process and thus cause erroneous judgments.

[0019] Working principle: When placing different goods, first adjust the partition plate 2 according to the needs, take the unloaded partition plate 2 out of the storage equipment and store it in the designated location, operate the operation panel to make the system scan automatically, start the RFID terminal 6, and continuously collect the surrounding RFID tag information, then the transfer mechanism 4 moves slowly along the guide rail 3, and the arm 5 rises a specified distance to perform the next round of scanning. If it is not completed, perform a second round of scanning again. If the entire warehouse scan is completed, the system will count the internal storage situation based on the RFID tag information and the corresponding slot information, and finally display the internal situation remotely or locally.

[0020] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be considered as limiting the claim to which it relates.
