[0043] like Figures 1 to 12 Figure 1 shows a loading robot for a cargo arrangement device according to one embodiment of the present invention. The loading robot automatically acquires the length, width, and height data of the cargo to be arranged using a 3D vision camera mounted on its front end, automatically calculates the number of boxes that can be arranged in each row, and automatically arranges the cargo in rows using the guide and arrangement mechanisms on the loader. The loading robot adaptively changes its position based on the acquired 3D data of the cargo, using parameters such as the guide and arrangement mechanisms. Therefore, the loading robot can automatically arrange cargo of varying sizes into rows without manual intervention, demonstrating its high adaptability. The cargo may be, but is not limited to, boxes, parcels, luggage, or bagged goods.

[0044] The loading robot of the cargo arranging device includes a loader 10, a temporary storage component 20, an arranging component 30, a guide component 40, an extension component 50, a baffle 60, a conveying platform 70 and a pusher 80, wherein the temporary storage component 20, the arranging component 30, the guide component 40, the extension component 50 and the baffle 60 are arranged on the loader 10, and can automatically arrange cargo 1 of different sizes in rows without manual intervention. Furthermore, the conveying platform 70 is movably connected to the temporary storage component 20, so that the cargo 1 can be transferred from the temporary storage component 20 to the interior of the vehicle via the conveying platform 70. Furthermore, the pushing component 80 is movably arranged on the frame 11, and the pushing component 80 can push the cargo 1 from the temporary storage component 20 to the conveying platform 70.

The first roller 12 is connected to the retractable roller line 13, which is freely retractable. When the loader 10 enters the interior of a carriage, the retractable roller 13 partially enters the carriage, and the optical distance detector 15 can obtain the three-dimensional parameters of the length, width, and height of the cargo. In actual application scenarios, three-dimensional parameters are extracted for cargo of different sizes as they pass through the optical distance detector 15. The cargo is then transported to the loader 10 via the retractable conveyor line 13, where the cargo is arranged in rows according to the three-dimensional data.

[0046] Preferably, the optical distance detector 15 may be, but is not limited to, a 3D camera, a grating, etc.

[0047] In actual application scenarios, when the loader 10 is traveling, the extension component 50 is in a retracted state, and the temporary storage component 20 is in its narrowest state, which facilitates the loader 10 to smoothly enter the interior of the carriage where the goods are to be placed. Furthermore, the loader 10 also includes a laser ranging sensor that can detect the front and left and right distances of the loader 10, and by real-time adjustment of each of the driving wheels 16, the loader 10 can automatically travel to the end of the carriage.

[0048] Furthermore, the conveying platform 70 includes a first storage platform 71 provided at one end of the temporary storage component 20, a second storage platform 72 capable of being aligned with the first storage platform 71, a supporting platform 73 provided at the lower layer of the second storage platform 72, and an extension member 74 accommodated inside the supporting platform 73. The extension member 74 can extend from the inside of the supporting platform 73, and the second storage platform 72 cooperates with the extension member 74 to transport the goods to the interior of the car. When the load is lifted up, the load is lifted up and the load is leveled, and the load is then loaded onto the load board 72 by the support means 73 . It is worth noting that the second storage platform 72 can change its height in the vertical direction to adapt to different stacking heights.

[0049] refer to Figure 3 The temporary storage assembly 20 of the loading robot of the cargo arranging device includes a second roller 21 and temporary storage areas 22 disposed on both sides of the second roller 21. The temporary storage assembly 20 is disposed on one side of the first roller 12 to facilitate receiving cargo conveyed from the first roller 12. Furthermore, the temporary storage area 22 may be, but is not limited to, a universal ball platform.

The guide assembly 40 is stacked on the first roller 12, and the first guide paddle 43 and the second guide paddle 45 are staggered with the first roller 12. The two ends of the first guide paddle 43 and the second guide paddle 45 are respectively provided on the two guide rails 42. In this embodiment of the present invention, the number of the guide rails 42 is preferably two.

[0051] refer to Figure 5 The arrangement component 30 includes a paddle rack 31 provided on the frame 11, and a first arrangement paddle 32, a second arrangement paddle 33, a first arrangement paddle drive motor 34, a second arrangement paddle drive motor 35, an arrangement guide rail 36, and a synchronous wheel 37 provided on the paddle rack 31. The arrangement component 30 is provided on the temporary storage component 20. The arrangement component 30 is stacked on the second roller 21. The first arrangement paddle 32 and the second arrangement paddle 33 are staggered with the second roller 21. The two ends of the first arrangement paddle 32 and the second arrangement paddle 33 are respectively provided on the two arrangement guide rails 36. In this embodiment of the present invention, the number of the arrangement guide rails 36 is preferably two.

[0052] refer to Figure 6 The extension component 50 is respectively arranged on both sides of the temporary storage component 20 and the conveying platform 70, and the extension component 50 includes an extension plate 51, a translation plate 52 arranged on the extension plate 51, an extension guide rail 53 arranged between the extension plate 51 and the translation plate 52, a screw rod 54, elastic rods 55 respectively connected to the two ends of the translation plate 52, an elastic member 56 arranged inside the elastic rod 55, an extension member 57 connected to the translation plate 52 through two elastic rods 55, a range switch 58 arranged on the translation plate 52 and an extension motor 59 arranged on the extension plate 51.

[0053] The number of the extension components 50 is preferably four, the number of the elastic rods 55 and the elastic members 56 is preferably two, and the number of the expansion guide rails 53 is two.

[0054] Furthermore, the two extension components 50 are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the temporary storage component 20, so that the left and right sides of the temporary storage component 20 can be freely extended and retracted, and the temporary storage component 20 can be widened or narrowed, so as to be suitable for various truck compartments of different widths.

[0055] Furthermore, the range switch 58 may be, but is not limited to, a plunger-type range switch.

[0056] The extension guide rail 53, the screw rod 54, and the extension motor 59 are arranged on the extension plate 51, and the translation plate 52 is arranged on the extension guide rail 53 and connected to the screw rod nut of the screw rod 54. As the extension motor 59 is driven, the translation plate 52 translates back and forth. The elastic rod 55 and the range switch 58 are arranged on the translation plate 52. The elastic member 56 is arranged inside the elastic rod 55. The elastic member 56 is in a compressed state in the initial state, so that the elastic rod 55 can maintain a certain force to be ejected.

[0057] Preferably, the elastic member 56 may be, but is not limited to, a spring.

[0058] refer to Figure 7 The blocking piece 60 includes a blocking piece 61 and a guide rod cylinder 62. The blocking piece 60 is provided on the frame 11, and the guide rod cylinder 62 is provided on the blocking piece 61. The guide rod cylinder 62 provides power for the blocking piece 61. The blocking piece 61 is provided at the end of the temporary storage component 20 to prevent the goods from being excessively displaced or falling from the temporary storage component 20.

[0059] In a specific application scenario, after the loader 10 confirms the placement position inside the car compartment, the extension motor 59 of the extension assembly 50 drives the screw rod 54, and the screw rod 54 drives the extension member 57, so that the extension member 57 is in an expanded state, and the screw rod 54 continues to drive the extension member 57 to move. When the extension member 57 touches the inner wall of the car compartment, the inner wall of the car compartment generates a reaction force on the extension member 57, causing the elastic rod 55 to retract, and the elastic rod 55 compresses the spring 56. After the paddle of the elastic rod 55 toggles the range switch 58, the extension motor 59 reverses, so that the extension member 57 is separated from the inner wall of the car compartment. After separating to a preset distance, the extension motor 59 stops working, and the loader 10 is placed in the above-mentioned placement position.

[0060] When loading begins, the three-dimensional parameters of the length, width and height of the goods are obtained when the goods pass through the optical distance detector 15, and the number of boxes that can be arranged in each row is calculated through a preset program.

[0061] When the goods are transported to the first roller 12 of the loader 10, the goods reach the set position and trigger the beam sensor 14 provided on the first roller 12. The beam sensor 14 transmits a signal to the guide assembly 40, and the guide assembly 40 starts working. The first guide paddle 43 and the second guide paddle 45 of the guide assembly 40 are arranged crosswise with the roller of the first roller 12 and do not affect each other's movements. In the above process, the first roller 12 and the guide assembly 40 are installed on the frame 11. In the guide assembly 40, the first guide motor 44, the second guide motor 46 and the guide rail 42 are all installed on the guide frame 41. The first guide motor 44 and the second guide motor 46 respectively drive the synchronous wheel 47, and the first guide paddle 43 and the second guide paddle 45 can respectively move along a straight line.

[0062] When starting work, the first guide paddle 43 and the second guide paddle 45 are driven by the first guide motor 44 and the second guide motor 46 respectively to form a linkage, and the first guide paddle 43 and the second guide paddle 45 push the goods to a pre-calculated position. At the same time, the first guide paddle 43 and the second guide paddle 45 form a transmission channel, and the first roller 12 transports the goods to the second roller 21 of the temporary storage component 20.

[0063] Furthermore, in order to prevent the cargo from being transported beyond the temporary storage assembly 20 , the guide rod cylinder 62 of the blocking plate 60 is in a raised state, so that the blocking plate 61 is in a raised state, and the blocking plate 61 prevents the cargo from moving beyond the boundary of the temporary storage assembly 20 .

[0064] The first arrangement paddle drive motor 34, the second arrangement paddle drive motor 35 and the arrangement guide rail 36 of the arrangement assembly 30 are arranged on the paddle frame 31, and the first arrangement paddle 32 and the second arrangement paddle 33 are arranged on the arrangement guide rail 36. The first arrangement paddle drive motor 34 and the second arrangement paddle drive motor 35 respectively drive the synchronous wheel 37, so that the first arrangement paddle 32 and the second arrangement paddle 33 can move along a straight line respectively.

[0065] When the cargo triggers the sensor of the temporary storage assembly 20, the arrangement assembly 30 begins operation. The first arrangement paddle 32 and the second arrangement paddle 33 form a linkage, moving along a pre-set trajectory. The first arrangement paddle drive motor 34 drives the first arrangement paddle 32, shifting the cargo toward either side. When the number of boxes arranged on either side reaches the pre-calculated number, the first arrangement paddle 32 stops. When new cargo arrives, the second arrangement paddle drive motor 35 drives the second arrangement paddle 33, shifting the cargo toward the other side. When the number of boxes arranged on the other side reaches the pre-calculated number, the first and second arrangement paddles 32, 33 stop operating. At this point, the fully arranged boxes are temporarily stored in the temporary storage assembly 20.

[0066] refer to Figures 8 to 12 , is an arrangement method of the loading robot of the cargo arrangement device of the above embodiment of the present invention, such as Figure 8As shown, the number of the temporary storages 22 is preferably two, and the number of the extension components 50 is preferably two. The width of the carriage allows the loader 10 and part of the retractable roller 13 to enter the interior of the carriage. The goods are corrected in position by the first guide paddle 43 and the second guide paddle 45 through the first roller 12 and transported to the second roller 21. The goods are pushed to the temporary storage 22 on either side of the temporary storage component 20 by the first arrangement paddle 32 and the second arrangement paddle 33 through the second roller 21. In this embodiment, it is preferably pushed to the temporary storage 22 on the left first and then pushed to the temporary storage 22 on the right. In other embodiments of the present invention, it can also be pushed to the temporary storage 22 on the right first and then pushed to the temporary storage 22 on the left. The blocking piece 61 of the blocking piece 60 prevents excessive displacement of the goods.

[0067] like Figure 9 As shown, the box width is set to L, and the value of L is measured by the optical distance detector 15;

[0068] The extension width of the left extension member 57 of the left extension assembly 50 is set to a. The value of a can be calculated by the actual number of revolutions of the extension motor 59 during operation and the lead of the screw 54 through the extension motor 59 and the screw 54. The width of the temporary storage area 22 is set to b. b is a fixed value. The actual value can be measured with a ruler according to the structure. Set L1 = a + b.

[0069] The width of the second roller 21 is set to L2, where L2 is a fixed value and the actual value can be measured with a ruler according to the structure;

[0070] The extension width of the right extension member 57 of the right extension assembly 50 is set to c. The value of c can be calculated by the actual number of revolutions of the extension motor 59 during operation and the lead of the screw 54 through the extension motor 59 and the screw 54. The width of the temporary storage area 22 is set to b. b is a fixed value. The actual value can be measured with a ruler according to the structure. Set L3 = b + c.

[0071] The distance from the left side of the first roller 12 to the temporary storage area 22 on the left side is set to L4, where L4 is a fixed value and the actual value can be measured with a ruler according to the structure;

[0072] The distance from the right side of the first roller 12 to the temporary storage 22 on the right side is set to L5, where L5 is a fixed value and the actual value can be measured with a ruler according to the structure;

[0073] The conveying line width of the first roller 12 is set to L6. L6 needs to be at least twice the box width L, so as to ensure that when the boxes are arranged in the temporary storage assembly 20, the arranged boxes will not block the passage of the subsequently conveyed boxes. For example, if the maximum width of the boxes to be arranged is 450 mm, the conveying line width of the first roller 12 can be set to 1000 mm, so as to ensure that boxes with an L value of less than 450 mm can be compatible and arranged at the same time;

[0074] It is worth noting that when the temporary storage assembly 20 is arranged, it is first necessary to determine whether the box needs to be arranged to the left or right after reaching the second roller 21;

[0075] When arranging, the number of arranged boxes in the temporary storage component 20 is set to n, the maximum number of boxes allowed on the left side of the temporary storage component 20 is set to n1, and the maximum number of boxes allowed in the temporary storage component 20 is set to n2;

[0076] When working, the value of n can be calculated by the counting function of the beam sensor 14;

[0077] Mode (n1 is an integer after removing the decimal point, and 30mm is the cumulative value of the gap error reserved for the box placement). Since L1, L2 and L can all be calculated, the value of n1 can be obtained; through the formula (n2 is an integer after removing the decimal point, and 30mm is the accumulated value of the gap error reserved for the box placement), so that the value of n2 can be obtained;

[0078] (1) When n satisfies the following formula at the same time, the arrangement paddle structure 30 is arranged in a box on the left side of the temporary storage component 20:

[0079] 0= <n<n1;

[0080] in, (n1 is an integer after removing the decimal point)

[0081] At this time, the first arrangement paddle 32 moves to the left to paddle the box conveyed to the second roller 21 to the left to a fixed position;

[0082] At this time, if Figure 10 (There is a problem with the order) is a schematic diagram of the steps when the boxes are arranged to the left side of the temporary storage component 20;

[0083] (2) When n satisfies the following formula at the same time, the arrangement paddle structure 30 is arranged in a box on the right side of the temporary storage component 20:

[0084] n1<=n <n2-1;

[0085] in, (n1 is an integer after removing the decimal point), (n2 is an integer after removing the decimal places);

[0086] At this time, the second arrangement paddle 33 moves rightward to move the box conveyed onto the second roller 21 to the right to a fixed position;

[0087] At this time, if Figure 11 (There is a problem with the order) is a schematic diagram of the steps when the boxes are arranged to the right side of the temporary storage component 20;

[0088] (3) When n satisfies the following formula at the same time, the arrangement paddle structure 30 arranges the last box in the temporary storage assembly 20:
