AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In existing automated warehouses, each aisle is equipped with only one stacker crane, resulting in slow handling speed and limiting the single specification of goods. Especially with the development of warehouse management software, handling equipment hinders the speed of goods processing.

Method used

The automated storage and retrieval system (AS/RS) is equipped with multiple non-interfering single-layer longitudinal transport channels, independent vertical shafts on each layer, and horizontal cross passages at the bottom of the same row. It is also equipped with various handling equipment and AS/RS management software to enable rapid storage and retrieval of goods.

Benefits of technology

Through multi-channel design and the coordination of various handling equipment, rapid storage and retrieval of goods are achieved, improving handling speed and flexibility of goods specifications, reducing equipment interference and overlap, and enhancing the efficiency of automated warehouses.

Abstract

This invention discloses a multi-channel automated parking system and its application method for rapid storage and retrieval. The multi-channel automated parking system is housed within a dense, integrated automated racking system. Multiple shuttle cars are placed on staggered, non-interfering single-layer longitudinal aisles, along with multiple matching independent vertical shafts. This allows for simultaneous longitudinal and vertical transport of multiple layers and goods. Multiple entrances / exits and transverse aisles can be configured as needed, housing multiple continuous transition conveyors. Combined with corresponding warehouse management software and various sensors, the system performs tasks such as scanning and identifying goods upon entry and exit, data collection, goods location determination, handling process analysis, conveyor path optimization, and time allocation. It also provides electronic control for information and instruction transmission and reception for the various handling equipment, achieving multi-layered relay-style collaborative operations and thus realizing intelligent and rapid storage and retrieval of goods throughout the warehouse.
