Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of logistics warehousing stacker equipment, and particularly to a radar detection device based on a stacker. Background Art

[0002] When a stacker is working, an obstacle detector needs to be set to detect whether there are people or obstacles in the warehouse aisle. Therefore, the detector is a device that provides safety protection for the stacker and warehouse staff.

[0003] However, in the actual detection process, the stacker generally has a certain speed. Since most detectors are passive detections, that is, they will be detected only when there is a certain distance from the obstacle. But if the detection is inaccurate, it will cause the stacker to brake untimely, which will further cause losses to the staff and property. Moreover, the detectors are generally vulnerable parts. Once there is an impact with the obstacle, it will seriously affect the normal use of the detector. In this way, the working efficiency of the stacker is greatly reduced and it cannot meet the diversity requirements of complex on-site situations. Summary of the Invention

[0030] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts based on the embodiments of the present invention belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] Please refer toFigure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 FIG. Figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of the radar detection device based on the stacker of the present invention. Figure 2 is Figure 1 FIG. Figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of the bracket 10 of an embodiment of the radar detection device based on the stacker shown in FIG. Figure 1 . The present invention provides a radar detection device based on a stacker, including a bracket 10 and a radar detector 20. The bracket 10 is connected to the stacker. The bracket 10 includes a first mounting plate 110 and a second mounting plate 120. An included angle is set between the first mounting plate 110 and the second mounting plate 120, and the first mounting plate 110 is provided with a first through hole 1110. The radar detector 20 is connected to the second mounting plate 120. The radar detector 20 includes a main body 210 and a probe 220 connected to the main body 210. The main body 210 is electrically connected to the stacker through an electrical connection line passing through the first through hole 1110. Wherein, the probe 220 is arranged towards the first mounting plate 110 and is located in the mounting area 40 formed by the first mounting plate 110 and the second mounting plate 120, so as to avoid the impact on the probe 220 caused by the obstacles in the detection area and can actively detect the obstacles around the probe 220. It should be noted that the included angle between the first mounting plate 110 and the second mounting plate 120 is set to form the mounting area 40, and the probe 220 is arranged towards the first mounting plate 110 and is located in the mounting area 40. That is, the settings of the first mounting plate 110 and the second mounting plate 120 enable the impact formed by the collision to be absorbed when the stacker collides with an obstacle, so as to prevent the impact formed by the collision from damaging the probe 220, thereby improving the working service life of the probe 220. Further, the first mounting plate 110 is provided with a first through hole 1110, and the bracket 10 is used to be electrically connected to the stacker through an electrical connection line passing through the first through hole 1110. The terms "first", "second", and "third" in the present invention are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, the features defined with "first", "second", and "third" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features.

[0032] In an embodiment of the present invention, the first mounting plate 110 and the second mounting plate 120 are integrally bent. That is, the first mounting plate 110 and the second mounting plate 120 are integrally provided. In this way, the overall structure of the first mounting plate 110 and the second mounting plate 120 can be simplified, thereby reducing the production cost. The first mounting plate 110 can be bent on the basis of the second mounting plate 120, simplifying the production process. It can be understood that the first mounting plate 110 can also be detachably connected or fixedly connected to the second mounting plate 120. For example, the detachable connection can be: threaded connection, for example, the first mounting plate 110 and the second mounting plate 120 are installed and fixed by a screw rod. Or a plug-in connection, a limit groove is provided on the first mounting plate 110, and a limit post matching the limit groove is provided on the second mounting plate 120, and then the limit groove and the limit post are connected in cooperation. The fixed connection can be bonding or welding, etc., that is, the first mounting plate 110 is adhered to or welded to the second mounting plate 120. As long as the probe 220 is located within the installation area 40 formed by the first mounting plate 110 and the second mounting plate 120, the first mounting plate 110 and the second mounting plate 120 can prevent obstacles from damaging the probe 220.

[0033] In an embodiment of the present invention, the second mounting plate 120 is perpendicular to the first mounting plate 110. That is, the included angle between the first mounting plate 110 and the second mounting plate 120 is 90 degrees. It should be noted that the included angle between the first mounting plate 110 and the second mounting plate 120 can also be an acute angle or an obtuse angle, for example, 30 degrees, 60 degrees, 120 degrees are all possible, as long as when encountering an obstacle, the first mounting plate 110 is located at the front end of the probe 220. Preferably, the included angle between the first mounting plate 110 and the second mounting plate 120 can be 90 degrees. The extension length of the first mounting plate 110 away from the side of the stacker for installation is greater than the thickness of the radar detector 20 in the same direction, so that when the side end of the radar detector 20 encounters an obstacle, it will also be abutted by the first mounting plate 110 and the second mounting plate 120 for the first time to protect the radar detector 20 from being damaged by the impact of the obstacle.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 3 is Figure 1 the schematic exploded view of the radar detection device based on the stacker at an angle shown in Figure 4 is Figure 1 the schematic exploded view of the radar detection device based on the stacker at another angle shown in Figure 5 is Figure 1The main detection view of the stacker-based radar detection device shown. A second through hole 1210 is provided on the second mounting plate 120, and at least a part of the projection of the probe 220 in the direction of the second mounting plate 120 overlaps with the second through hole 1210. Since the probe 220 of the radar detector 20 emits signals in all directions, the second through hole 1210 provided on the second mounting plate 120 can enable the signals of the radar detector 20 to also pass through the second through hole 1210 and be emitted and received outward. In this way, the detection result will not be affected, and the signals emitted by the radar can be diffused in all directions, so that the obstacle information in multiple directions such as the bottom, front, and side on one side can be detected. Furthermore, the stacker can give an early warning in advance to give enough reaction time to avoid damage to the detector by obstacles and prevent the stacker from injuring undetected personnel or property.

[0035] The radar detector 20 and the second mounting plate 120 are connected by bolts. That is, in an embodiment of the present invention, at least one first positioning hole 230 is provided on the radar detector 20, and at least one second positioning hole 1220 is provided on the side of the radar detector 20 facing the second mounting plate 120. The bolts sequentially pass through the first positioning hole 230 and the second positioning hole 1220 to connect the radar detector 20 and the second mounting plate 120. It can be understood that the second positioning hole 1220 can be a threaded hole, so that the bolt can cooperate with the threaded hole to realize the detachable connection between the radar detector 20 and the second mounting plate 120. In other embodiments, the radar detector 20 and the second mounting plate 120 can also be connected by connection methods such as welding.

[0036] It further includes a third mounting plate 130. The third mounting plate 130 is connected to the stacker. The third mounting plate 130 is arranged at an angle with the second mounting plate 120 and is adjacent to the first mounting plate 110. In an embodiment of the present invention, the third mounting plate 130 and the second mounting plate 120 are integrally bent, and the bending direction of the third mounting plate 130 is opposite to the bending direction of the first mounting plate 110. It can be understood that the third mounting plate 130 and the second mounting plate 120 can also be detachably connected and separately arranged. For example, connection methods such as plugging or bonding. The setting of the third mounting plate 130 facilitates the connection with the stacker, and the bending direction of the third mounting plate 130 is opposite to the bending direction of the first mounting plate 110. That is, the first mounting plate 110 is bent upward toward the probe 220, and the third mounting plate 130 is bent downward toward the probe 220.

[0037] At least one mounting hole 1310 is provided on the third mounting plate 130, and a bolt passes through the mounting hole 1310 to be fixedly connected to the stacker. Specifically, it can be connected to the lower crossbeam of the stacker. It can also be connected to other components on the stacker, as long as the radar detector 20 can detect obstacles in the advancing direction of the stacker.

[0038] In an embodiment of the present invention, a cushion plate 30 is further included, which is connected to the installation side of the third mounting plate 130 and the stacker. The material of the cushion plate 30 can be rubber. It can be understood that the third mounting plate 130 is also provided with a hole position corresponding to the mounting hole 1310 opened on the third mounting plate 130, so that the cushion plate 30 can be disposed between the third mounting plate 130 and the stacker to improve the installation stability of the stacker.

[0039] In summary, the present invention adopts an active detection method, and the radar detector 20 actively detects obstacles in the advancing direction of the stacker to make an avoidance in advance, thereby improving the feedback rate of the stacker and facilitating the debugging and maintenance of the radar detector 20, further improving the maintenance efficiency of the stacker, and adapting to the diverse requirements of the complex on-site conditions of the enterprise. The settings of the first mounting plate 110 and the second mounting plate 120 can protect the radar detector 20 from being damaged by the impact of obstacles. And the first through hole 1110 opened on the first mounting plate 110 can enable the radar detector 20 to form an electrical connection with the stacker through an electrical connection line. The second through hole 1210 provided on the second mounting plate 120 can enable the radar detector 20 to also detect obstacles on the side of the second mounting plate 120.

[0040] It should be noted that the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof in the embodiments of the present invention are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not limited to the listed steps or units, but optionally further includes steps or units not listed, or optionally further includes other components or units inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments, or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
