Each group of tracks 1 comprises two oppositely arranged power supply rails 10.
[0064] Referring to Figures 2-4B The power supply rail 10 comprises a rail body 100, two slide contact wires 102 mounted on the inner side of the rail body 100, two anti-collision plates 103 respectively mounted on the inner side of the rail body 100 at both ends, two brush guide plates 105 respectively mounted on the rail body 100 and located between the slide contact wires 102 and the two anti-collision plates 103, two engaging members 106 respectively mounted on the rail body 100 and located between the slide contact wires 102 and the two brush guide plates 105, two pairs of power supply clamps 107 respectively mounted on the rail body 100 and contacting and clamping both ends of the two slide contact wires 102, a plurality of assembly plates 108 mounted on the inner side of the rail body 100 and respectively located between the rail body 100 and the slide contact wires 102, and a plurality of fixing seats 109 mounted on the outer side of the rail body 100 and used to fix the rail body 100 to the ground.
[0065] The guide rail body 100 comprises a straight guide rail body 1000 and guide rail guide parts 1002 extending outwardly at both ends of the guide rail body 1000. The anti-collision plates 103 are respectively installed on the guide rail guide parts 1002. The slide wire 102 is installed on the guide rail body 1000. The brush guide plates 105 are respectively installed at both ends of the guide rail body 1000. The inside of the guide rail body 100 forms a semi-closed containing space 1005 with openings at both ends and one side, and the slide wire 102, the anti-collision plates 103, the brush guide plates 105, the adapter 106, the power supply clip 107, and the assembly plate 108 are all installed in the containing space, which is provided with certain anti-collision protection and dust protection.
[0066] The cross section of the slide wire 102 is C-shaped, corresponding to a C-shaped brush sliding groove 1020. The brush guide plate 105 is provided with a brush guide groove 1050, which is tapered at one end close to the adapter 106. The adapter 106 is provided with a brush buffer groove 1060, which is trumpet-shaped at one end close to the brush guide plate, so as to relieve the impact of the conductive brush 317 (see Figure 15 ) entering the slide wire 102 from the brush guide plate 105.

The conductive brush 317 enters the brush sliding groove 1020 in sequence through the brush guide groove 1030, the brush guide groove 1050, and the brush buffer groove 1060, and keeps contact with the slide wire 102, so as to realize power taking from the slide wire 102.
[0067] Each group of tracks 1 forms a trumpet-shaped opening at both ends, facilitating the entry and exit of the robot 2 into the track 1 and facilitating the turning of the robot 2. The number of robots 2 can be selected according to the size of the site and the expected workload. Please refer to Figures 5-8 , the robot 2 comprises a base assembly 3, a walking mechanism 4 installed at the bottom of the base assembly 3, an electric box assembly 5 installed on the base assembly 3, a stand column assembly 6 installed on the base assembly 3 through the electric box assembly 5, a rocker arm assembly 7 installed on the stand column assembly 6, and a grabbing mechanism 8 installed on the lower side of the rocker arm assembly 7.

[0069] Please refer to Figures 7-9The column assembly 6 comprises a column 60, a rotating platform 62 mounted on the top of the column 60, a rotating motor 63 mounted on the rotating platform 62 and capable of driving the rotating platform 62, a first proximity switch 65, a second proximity switch 66 and a third proximity switch 67 mounted on the rotating platform 62. The rocker arm assembly 7 is mounted on the rotating platform 62, and through the first to third proximity switches 65, 66, 67, the rocker arm assembly 7 can be respectively controlled to keep in the initial position when standby, and the rotating platform 62 rotates the two limit swing positions of the rocker arm assembly 7. By controlling the rocker arm assembly 7 not to exceed the limit swing position, the robot's center of gravity is prevented from deviating too much to cause instability when the robot walks. And the standby of the rocker arm assembly 7 in the initial position can guarantee the center of gravity, which is beneficial to stable walking.
[0070] The rocker arm assembly 7 comprises a rocker arm housing 70, a moving mechanism 72 and a lifting mechanism 73 mounted in the rocker arm housing 70, a moving motor 75 mounted on the rocker arm housing 70 and capable of driving the moving mechanism 72, and a lifting motor 76 mounted on the rocker arm housing 70 and capable of driving the lifting mechanism 73. The rocker arm housing 70 is mounted on the rotating platform 62 of the column assembly 6 near the bottom of one end. The moving mechanism 72 can drive the lifting mechanism 73 to move. The lifting mechanism 73 is connected with the grabbing mechanism 8. The lifting mechanism 73 can drive the grabbing mechanism 8 to lift. When the moving mechanism 72 drives the lifting mechanism 73 to move, the lifting mechanism 73 drives the grabbing mechanism 8 to move. The rotating motor 63 drives the rotating platform 62 to drive the rocker arm housing 70 to rotate around the column assembly 6, the rocker arm housing 70 rotates around the column assembly 6 to drive the lifting mechanism 73 to rotate around the column assembly 6, and the lifting mechanism 73 rotates around the column assembly 6 to drive the grabbing mechanism 8 to rotate around the column assembly 6. Therefore, the grabbing mechanism 8 can realize rotation and movement in the horizontal direction and movement in the vertical direction, so as to adjust its position to grab the desired goods 200. Therefore, the present application is suitable for vertical picking into the basket.
[0071] The moving motor 75 and the lifting motor 76 are located on the side of the column assembly 6 away from the grabbing mechanism 8, so as to promote the balance of the gravity moment of the rocker arm assembly relative to the two ends of the column assembly 6, and the moving motor 75 and the lifting motor 76 are respectively located on the two sides of the column assembly 6, so as to promote the balance of the gravity moment of the rocker arm assembly relative to the two sides of the column assembly 6. Therefore, it is beneficial to the stable walking of the robot, especially to prevent side leaning when turning.
[0072] Please refer to Figure 10 and Figure 12The sensor mounting base 78 is installed with a laser height sensor 781, a reflective light measuring sensor 783, and a lifting origin proximity switch 785. The lifting origin proximity switch 785 is used to limit the lifting mechanism 73 to continue to pull up the grabbing mechanism 8, so as to avoid the collision between the grabbing mechanism 8 and the lifting mechanism 73. The lifting mechanism 73 has a chain 735, and the lifting of the grabbing mechanism 8 is realized by the upward and downward movement of the chain 735.
