Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to an article distribution device and a distribution method, and more particularly to an automated instrument distribution device and a distribution method. Background Art

[0002] Underground work (such as underground coal mine work, underground metal mine work, etc.) is work with a special working environment and relatively high risks. In order to enable underground coal mine workers to be in a working environment with sufficient oxygen and the content of other gases such as carbon monoxide and methane not exceeding the standard, and to ensure the life safety of underground workers, managers need to distribute underground gas detectors to each underground worker for the underground workers to detect the content of various gases at their locations. The existing technology uses the method of manually distributing gas detectors to underground workers one by one, but the problem is that: due to the large number of underground workers and the small size of the gas detectors, problems such as missed distribution, over-distribution, or loss of gas detectors are likely to occur when distributing gas detectors.

[0003] Chinese Patent CN208784015U discloses an intelligent article distribution cabinet, which includes a cabinet body and several drawer-type single-layer cabinets arranged on the cabinet body from top to bottom, and also includes a controller equipped with a single-chip microcomputer, a display device and a login device electrically connected to the controller; several distribution boxes are arranged in each single-layer cabinet. However, the disadvantages are: the number of drawer-type single-layer cabinets is limited and cannot meet the demand for large-scale distribution of instruments, and due to the form of sub-packaging using several distribution boxes, the efficiency of managers in putting in instruments is relatively low.

If the reading is successful, the pickup window opens and Step 6 is executed; if the reading fails, the instrument board opens, the instrument enters the instrument recycling hopper, and the touch display screen prompts to re-perform the receiving and issuing of the instrument, and returns to Step 3.

[0021] Step 6: The receiving personnel take out the instrument from the pickup window to complete the instrument distribution; if the instrument is not received in time, the instrument board opens, and the instrument enters the instrument recycling hopper. At this time, if the instrument needs to be received again, return to Step 2.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0023] 1. The automatic instrument distribution device provided by the present invention adopts a fully automatic integrated structure composed of a housing, a conveying component and a stock cleaning component, which is convenient for processing and use, and the device occupies less space; a touch display screen and an identity recognizer are arranged on the housing, which has the advantages of user-friendly, clear and convenient operation process; the conveying component and the stock cleaning component arranged inside the housing cooperate with each other to ensure the correct and efficient issuing and replenishment of the instrument; a stock cleaning component is provided to prevent the instrument from staying for too long; a storage box and a storage box door are provided for storing instruments, maintenance tools or other items, making full use of the internal space and facilitating the management personnel to replenish goods; the protection plate adopts a closed box structure, which can effectively prevent the receiving personnel from dropping the instrument or other items inside the equipment when receiving the instrument, and at the same time prevents the receiving personnel from damaging the internal components of the equipment from the pickup window.

[0024] 2. The present invention is provided with a special steering plate with a certain inclination angle for the turning of the automatic instrument. Without the steering plate, the position where the instrument falls on the belt is not fixed, so that the reading and writing head may not be directly opposite to the reading and writing chip, resulting in failure to bind. When the steering plate is provided, when the instrument falls onto the belt along the inclined plane, its short side contacts the belt, and its back leans against the steering plate. Then the belt moves, and the short side of the instrument is driven by the frictional force to move towards the protection plate, but the back of the instrument is still blocked by the steering plate and cannot move with it. Finally, the instrument turns while moving, realizing the back contacting the belt, and the original short side contacting the belt faces the moving direction of the belt, that is, the long side of the instrument is flush with the moving direction of the belt at this time and the relative position is fixed. When the instrument moves to the protection plate in this state, its reading and writing chip is directly opposite to the reading and writing head, and the binding success rate is greatly increased.

[0025] 3. The automated instrument distribution device provided by the present invention is provided with a horizontally arranged conveyor. The conveyor uses a conveyor belt to transport instruments, ensuring the stable transportation of the instruments to the protective plate. The back plate in the cargo channel assembly is divided into multiple cargo channels by partitions, ensuring the correct distribution of different instruments and avoiding confusion. The propulsion device uses a propulsion block driven by a motor to push the instruments onto the conveyor belt of the conveyor, and together with the conveyor, efficiently completes the transmission of the instruments. The above-mentioned various modules cooperate with each other, enabling the overall device to operate unattended for 24 hours and efficiently, being applicable to various places and allowing the distribution of instruments at any time.

[0026] 4. The automated instrument distribution device provided by the present invention has at least four universal wheels provided at the lower end of the outer shell, facilitating the movement of the outer shell to adapt to different occasions.

[0027] 5. The automated instrument distribution device provided by the present invention is provided with a wireless communication module in the electric control box, which can be connected to the background management system, facilitating the operator to conduct real-time monitoring and inspection of the distribution device, and facilitating the distribution, recycling, and statistics of the instruments.

[0028] 6. The distribution method of the automated instrument distribution device provided by the present invention has the advantages of simple, fast operation and extremely low error rate. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
