For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the internal communication of two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0032] For the purposes of simplicity and illustration, the principles of the embodiments are mainly described by reference to examples. In the following description, many specific details are set forth to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments. However, it is obvious that for those of ordinary skill in the art, these embodiments may not be limited to these specific details in practice. In some instances, well-known methods and structures are not described in detail to avoid unnecessarily obscuring these embodiments. Additionally, all embodiments can be used in combination with each other.

[0033] As Figure 1-2 shown, the present application discloses an automated storage and retrieval system (AS / RS), including a placement section, a storage section 1, a handling section 2, a loading section 3, and a processing device 4.

[0034] As Figure 3 shown, the placement section 5 is specifically designed as a long tray, which can be used to stack long raw materials with a length of 3 - 20 m.

[0035] The storage section 1 has a number of storage units 11, and the storage unit 11 is specifically implemented as a long rectangular grid, which is used to accommodate at least one placement section, that is, the length and width of the storage unit 11 match the length and width of the placement section.

[0036] The handling section 2 is arranged on the side of the storage section 1, specifically on the side where the placement section enters and exits the storage unit, so that the handling section can handle the placement section. The handling section can specifically be a reach stacker (prior art, see CN116276251A), which can cooperate with the storage section to handle the placement section to realize the access of long raw materials.

[0037] The loading section 3 has a stockpiling area 31 and a feeding area 32. The stockpiling area 31 is arranged in at least one of the storage units, and the feeding area 32 is arranged in at least one other storage unit, and the feeding area and the stockpiling area are adjacent. Specifically, the loading section 3 is arranged at the bottom of the storage section 1, that is, at least two storage units at the bottom of the storage section 1 are used to arrange the stockpiling area 31 and the feeding area 32. Further, in order to facilitate the transfer of long raw materials between the stockpiling area 31 and the feeding area 32, at least two storage units above the stockpiling area 31 and the feeding area 32 are also left empty to leave space for the movement of long raw materials.

[0038] The processing device 4 is arranged at one end of the feeding area. The handling section transports the placement section from the storage section to the stockpiling area, and the long raw materials on the placement section enter the feeding area one by one from the stockpiling area, and then enter the processing device through the feeding area.

[0039] In the above technical solution, in the embodiment of the present application, by arranging the stock preparation area and the feeding area of the loading section in the storage unit, the processing equipment is embedded in the automated storage and retrieval system (AS / RS). After the handling section removes the placement section from the storage section, the placement section can be directly transported to the stock preparation area without repeated handling, improving the handling efficiency and saving logistics time and costs.

[0040] The feeding area is arranged on the side of the stock preparation area, and a material taking device 33 is arranged between the stock preparation area and the feeding area. The material taking device obtains a long material raw material from the feeding area and places the long material raw material in the stock preparation area. The material taking device 33 can take materials by means of jacking, magnetic attraction or clamping, which does not limit the present invention.

[0041]

Embodiment

[0042] The present application Figure 4 demonstrates a specific material taking method. As Figure 4 shown, the material taking device 33 includes a jacking device 331, a material guiding device 332 and a material feeding device 333. Among them, the jacking device 331 is arranged inside the stock preparation area 31, and a convex block is arranged on the top of the jacking device 331. The included angle formed by the convex block and the edge of the side of the stock preparation area 31 just clips a long material raw material. The jacking device 331 rises to be flush with the material guiding device 331, and the material guiding device 331 is inclined towards the feeding area 32, so that the long material raw material enters the feeding area 32 through the material guiding device 331. The material feeding device 333 is arranged at the bottom of the feeding area 32. The material feeding device 333 is specifically uniformly arranged rollers, which drive the long material raw material to move towards the processing equipment.

[0043] Although the above-described illustrative specific embodiments of the present application have been described to enable those skilled in the art to understand the present application, the present application is not limited to the scope of the specific embodiments. For those of ordinary skill in the art, as long as various changes are within the spirit and scope of the present application defined and determined by the appended claims, all application creations using the concept of the present application are within the scope of protection.
