Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of factory transportation, and particularly relates to a roller-type AGV capable of lifting and telescoping for loading and unloading goods. Background Art

At the same time, with the in-depth development of intelligence and the improvement of transportation efficiency, higher requirements have also been put forward for the loading and unloading methods of AGVs. Currently, for AGVs transporting materials in factories, most can only achieve passive loading and unloading of goods through external devices such as overhead cranes or forklifts. Especially when loading and unloading are required in an environment with a closed top space, overhead cranes or forklifts cannot be used at all, and it is very difficult to actively load and unload goods. With the rapid development of intelligent factories, it is very meaningful to develop an AGV that can actively load and unload in an environment with a closed top space.

[0036] One roller sprocket 23 on the roller adjacent to the roller drive motor is connected to the roller drive motor sprocket 20 through a chain 22, and the other roller sprocket 23 is connected to the adjacent roller sprocket 23 through a chain 22. With such a connection method, the roller drive motor sprocket 20 and the roller sprockets 23 are connected in pairs through the chains 22, so that all the first rollers 21 are connected into one body. Then, the power is transmitted through the roller drive motor to drive all the first rollers 21 to rotate, realizing the transmission of goods on the fixed fork assembly and the telescopic fork assembly.

[0037] The middle fixed fork 10 does not provide power during cargo transfer and only serves as a support.

[0038] The first telescopic assembly and the second telescopic assembly have the same structure, including a telescopic motor, a telescopic reduction gear, a gear 24, and several support rollers 25. The telescopic motor and the telescopic reduction gear are arranged on the inner side of the first telescopic roller bracket 18 or the second telescopic roller bracket 19, and are arranged on the side close to the roller drive motor. The output shaft of the telescopic motor extends to the outer bottom of the first telescopic roller bracket 18 or the second telescopic roller bracket 19, and a gear 24 that cooperates with the rack 13 is provided on the output shaft of the telescopic motor; Several support rollers 25 are rotatably arranged at the bottom of the first telescopic roller bracket 18 or the second telescopic roller bracket 19 through bearings.

[0039] The left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 are driven by a telescopic motor and a telescopic reduction gear. By the cooperation of the gear 24 and the rack 13, the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 are telescoped, and horizontally move under the guidance of the horizontal guide groove 29 on the guide plate 7, and rise or fall under the guidance of the vertical guide groove 30 after extending in place.

[0040] The first lifting device 26 and the second lifting device have the same structure. Several first lifting devices 26 are arranged at the bottom of the first telescopic roller bracket 18, and several first lifting devices 26 are arranged at intervals with the support rollers 25 at the bottom of the first telescopic roller bracket 18. Several second lifting devices are arranged at the bottom of the second telescopic roller bracket 19, and several second lifting devices are arranged at intervals with the support rollers 25 at the bottom of the second telescopic roller bracket 19.

[0041] The first guiding assembly and the second guiding assembly have the same structure, including several horizontal guiding wheels 27 and several vertical guiding wheels 28. The several horizontal guiding wheels 27 are horizontally distributed on the two side walls of the first telescopic roller bracket 18 or the second telescopic roller bracket 19, and the horizontal guiding wheels 27 are arranged below the chain 22. The vertical guiding wheels 28 are arranged at both ends of the two side walls of the first telescopic roller bracket 18 or the second telescopic roller bracket 19.

[0042] The outer side of the guide plate 7 is provided with a horizontal guide groove 29 corresponding to the horizontal guiding wheel 27 and a vertical guide groove 30 corresponding to the vertical guiding wheel 28.

[0043] When the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 extend outwards, the support roller 25 contacts the fork support platform 5, and the horizontal guide wheels 27 on both sides slide in the horizontal guide groove 29. After the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 extend in place, the lifting device extends and supports on the fork support platform 5, and the vertical guide wheels 28 on both sides slide in the vertical guide groove 30, thereby lifting the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12. After the lifting is in place, the top heights of the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 are flush with the left fixed fork 8 and the right fixed fork 10.

[0044] The width of the horizontal guide groove 29 is greater than the diameter of the horizontal guide wheel 27, and the width of the vertical guide groove 30 is greater than the diameter of the vertical guide wheel 28, thereby playing a guiding role in the extension and retraction of the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12.

[0045] The scissor lifting device 1 includes a passive fork arm, an active fork arm, a lifting upper platform, and a lifting oil cylinder. The lifting upper platform is fixedly arranged below the bracket 6.

The sliding ends of the passive fork arm and the active fork arm are slidably arranged above the vehicle body chassis of the transporter body 2 and below the lifting upper platform through linear guide rails. The two ends of the lifting oil cylinder are hinged to the passive fork arm and the active fork arm.

[0046] The scissor lifting device 1 adopts the existing technology.

[0047] Through the drive of the lifting oil cylinder, the lifting of the lifting upper platform is realized, and the overall lifting of the feeding device is completed, so that the height of the feeding device corresponds to that of the goods parking platform 3.

[0048] The transporter body 2 mainly includes a vehicle body chassis, a drive device, a navigation device, and an electrical control system, and can realize the longitudinal and lateral movement of the AGV, as well as functions such as turning in place and turning around.

[0049] The transporter body 2 adopts the existing technology.

[0050] In the specific implementation, the process of unloading goods is as follows: The goods are located above the feeding device, the scissor lifting device 1 is in the lowest position, the transporter body 2 moves to the corresponding position of the goods parking platform 3 through the navigation device, and accurate parking positioning can be realized by scanning the ground two-dimensional code through the PGV camera. After the parking positioning is completed, the front end of the feeding device is at a fixed distance from the feeding port of the goods parking platform 3, and the telescopic fork assembly of the feeding device is aligned with the fork support platform 5 in the goods parking platform 3.

[0051] The scissor lift device 1 lifts the feeding device until it stops when the bottom of the support roller 25 under the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 is flush with the fork support platform 5. At this time, the height of the first roller 21 above the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 is lower than the height of the first roller 21 above the left fixed fork 8 and the right fixed fork 10. Driven by the telescopic motor, the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 extend into the cargo parking platform 3 through the gear 24 - rack 13 mechanism. The horizontal guide wheels 27 on both sides of the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 slide in the horizontal guide groove 29, ensuring that the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 can finally accurately stop on the fork support platform 5 in the cargo parking platform 3.

[0052] When the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 extend in place, the first lifting device 26 and the second lifting device extend downward simultaneously. Under the guidance of the vertical guide groove 30, through the combined action of multiple lifting devices, the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 are lifted as a whole until the first roller 21 on the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 is higher than the cargo support platform 4 in the cargo parking platform 3, but the height of the first roller 21 on the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 is still lower than the height of the first roller 21 on the left fixed fork 8 and the right fixed fork 10, that is, the height of the first roller 21 on the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 is between the height of the cargo support platform 4 and the height of the first roller 21 on the left fixed fork 8 and the right fixed fork 10.

[0053] Start the roller drive motors in the left fixed fork 8, the right fixed fork 10, the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12. The goods start to be transported from above the left fixed fork 8, the middle fixed fork 9 and the right fixed fork 10 to above the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12. After the goods are completely transported into the cargo parking platform 3, stop the roller drive motors, retract the first lifting device 26 and the second lifting device until the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 stop on the fork support platform 5. At this time, the height of the cargo support platform 4 is higher than the height of the first roller 21 on the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12, that is, the goods are placed on the cargo support platform 4.

[0054] Start the telescopic motors in the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 to reverse until the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 are completely retracted in place. The scissor lift device 1 descends to the original position, and the transporter body 2 drives away from the loading position, waiting for the next instruction. Here, the unloading of the goods is completed.

[0055] The process of loading goods is as follows: Before loading, the goods are located on the goods support platform 4 within the goods parking platform 3. The entire AGV is in the parking area, and the scissor lift device 1 is in the lowest position. When the AGV receives the instruction to load goods, the transfer vehicle body 2 moves to the corresponding position of the goods parking platform 3 through the navigation device, and realizes precise parking positioning by scanning the ground two-dimensional code through the PGV camera. When the parking positioning is completed, the front end of the feeding device is at a fixed distance from the feeding port of the goods parking platform 3, and the telescopic fork assembly of the feeding device aligns with the fork support platform 5 within the goods parking platform 3.

[0056] The scissor lift device 1 raises the feeding device until the bottom of the support rollers 25 below the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 is flush with the fork support platform 5 and then stops. At this time, the height of the first rollers 21 above the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 is lower than the height of the first rollers 21 above the left fixed fork 8 and the right fixed fork 10. Driven by the telescopic motor, the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 extend into the goods parking platform 3 through the gear 24 and rack 13 mechanism. The horizontal guide wheels 27 on both sides of the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 slide in the horizontal guide grooves 29 to ensure that the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 can finally accurately stop on the fork support platform 5 within the goods parking platform 3.

[0057] When the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 extend in place, the first lifting device 26 and the second lifting device extend downward at the same time. Under the guidance of the vertical guide grooves 30, through the combined action of multiple lifting devices, the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 are lifted as a whole. When the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 lift the goods, the lifting device continues to lift until the bottom of the goods is higher than the first rollers 21 on the left fixed fork 8 and the right fixed fork 10 by a certain height and then stops.

[0058] Start the roller drive motors inside the left fixed fork 8, the right fixed fork 10, the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12. Since there is a height difference between the first rollers 21 on the left fixed fork 8 and the right fixed fork 10 and the first rollers 21 on the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12, the goods can be transferred from above the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 to above the left fixed fork 8 and the right fixed fork 10. After the goods are completely transferred to the left fixed fork 8 and the right fixed fork 10, stop the roller drive motors, and retract the first lifting device 26 and the second lifting device until the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 stop on the fork support platform 5.

[0059] Reverse the telescopic motors inside the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 until the left telescopic fork 11 and the right telescopic fork 12 are completely retracted into place, the scissor lift device 1 descends to the original position, and the transporter body 2 drives away from the loading position, waiting for the next instruction. Thus, the loading of the goods is completed.

[0060] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
