Detailed implementation mode
[0038] The present application will be further described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings with respect to an intelligent counter for a shelf and an intelligent shelf, but it is not intended to limit the present application.
[0039] As shown by Figures 1 to 5 An intelligent counter for a shelf includes a box body 1 with an open upper end. A plurality of weighing sensors 4 are arranged on the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the box body 1, and a support plate 3 is arranged on the weighing sensors 4.
[0040] A controller 10 is arranged outside the box body 1, and the controller 10 is electrically connected to the weighing sensors 4.
[0041] The controller 10 is used to identify the types of items placed inside the box body 1, and calculate the number of items inside the box body 1 according to the types of items and the weight information transmitted by the weighing sensors 4.
[0042] There are two ways for the controller 10 to identify the types of items:
[0043] First, a plurality of buttons are arranged on the controller 10, and each button corresponds to a type of item. The types of items inside the box body 1 are identified by manually selecting the buttons.
[0044] Second, a camera device is arranged in the upper part of the inner cavity of the box body 1. The camera device is electrically connected to the controller 10, and an image recognition software is arranged inside the controller 10. The types of items inside the box body 1 are judged by analyzing the pictures taken by the camera device.
[0045] An intelligent shelf includes the above-mentioned intelligent counter for a shelf and a shelf body 14. A conveyor belt assembly is arranged on the shelf body 14. The conveyor belt assembly includes an internal support frame 15. Rotating rollers 16 are rotatably connected to both ends of the internal support frame 15. A conveyor belt 17 is sleeved on the rotating rollers 16. A horizontal plate is arranged on the top of the internal support frame 15, and the horizontal plate is arranged below the upper end surface of the conveyor belt 17 to support it. One of the rotating rollers 16 is connected to a motor 18, and the motor 18 is fixedly connected to the internal support frame 15.
[0046] The internal support frame 15 of the conveyor belt assembly is fixedly connected to the shelf body 14. Side baffles 19 fixedly connected to the shelf body 14 are arranged on both sides above the conveyor belt assembly. The side baffles 19 prevent the items supported above from falling during the operation of the conveyor belt 17.
[0047] At the end of the shelf body 14 in the longitudinal direction of the total length of the conveyor belt, there are two vertically arranged linear modules 11 arranged oppositely. The linear module 11 adopts an electric linear module. The box body 1 is arranged between the two linear modules 11, and the box body 1 is connected to the sliding part of the linear module 11 through a rotational drive assembly 12. The rotational drive assembly 12 can adopt an outer rotor motor, and the stator and rotor of the outer rotor motor are respectively fixedly connected to the outer wall of the box body 1 and the sliding part of the linear module 11. It can drive the box body 1 to rotate on the premise of reducing the occupied space.
[0048] The linear module 11 is connected to the shelf body 14 through a plurality of electric telescopic devices 13, and the telescopic device 13 can adopt an electric cylinder.
[0049] Through the cooperative connection of the linear module 11 and the rotational drive assembly 12, the lifting and rotation of the box body 1 are realized, which is convenient for automatically storing and retrieving items on the conveyor belt assembly.
[0050] To achieve the above purpose, the support plate 3 needs to be movable, and then push out the items inside the box body 1. An elevating assembly is arranged outside the box body 1, and the elevating assembly controls the up and down movement of the support plate 3.
[0051] The elevating assembly includes a winch 9, a cable 6 and a guiding mechanism. The guiding mechanism includes an upper pulley 7 and a lower pulley 8. The upper pulley 7 and the lower pulley 8 are respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the back plate of the box body 1. The winch 9 is arranged below the bottom surface of the box body 1, and the bottom of the box body 1 is supported by a support frame 2.
[0052] A vertical slideway 103 is arranged on the back plate of the box body 1. A T-shaped slider 302 protrudes from the back of the support plate 3, and the T-shaped slider 302 is slidably arranged inside the slideway 103.
[0053] The free end of the cable 6 is guided by the lower pulley 8 and the upper pulley 7 and then connected to the T-shaped slider 302 located outside the box body 1.
[0054] In order to enable the weighing sensor 4 to perform effective weighing, the bottom of the slideway 103 is lower than the support surface of the weighing sensor 4.
[0055] At least two vertically arranged slideways 103 are arranged on the back plate of the box body 1. A T-shaped slider 302 fixedly connected to the support plate 3 is slidably arranged inside each slideway 103, and the free end of the cable 6 is connected to each T-shaped slider 302.
[0056] A horizontally arranged lifting rod 5 is slidably arranged outside the back plate of the box body 1. The free end of the cable 6 is fixedly connected to the central position of the lifting rod 5. A plurality of clamping sleeves 501 are arranged on the lifting rod 5, and the clamping sleeves 501 are sleeved on the T-shaped slider 302.
[0057] The top of the T-shaped slider 302 is provided with an upper limit plate 303, and the outer dimension of the upper limit plate 303 is larger than the outer dimension of the clamping sleeve 501.
[0058] In order to keep the lifting rod 5 sliding up and down in parallel arrangement, a vertically arranged rear sliding groove 102 is respectively provided on both sides of the back plate of the box body 1, and both ends of the lifting rod 5 are respectively slidably arranged inside the rear sliding groove 102.
[0059] The front end of the support plate 3 is provided with a vertical plate 301, and the two are vertically intersected. The front end of the box body 1 is arranged in an open manner, and front baffle plates 101 are provided on both sides of the opening to perform limit clamping on the vertical plate 301. In this way, after the support plate 3 is lifted, the weighing sensor 4 at the bottom of the box body 1 can be exposed, which is convenient for overhaul and replacement of the weighing sensor 4.
[0060] Steps for storing items in the intelligent shelf:
[0061] Put several items into the box body 1. The controller 10 determines the types of the items, and combines with the weight detected by the weighing sensor 4 to calculate the number of items inside the box body 1. The intelligent shelf is preset with the types of items stored on each layer, and the linear module 11 drives the box body 1 to move to the corresponding layer. The rotation drive assembly 12 drives the box body 1 to rotate until the opening of the box body 1 faces the conveyor belt 17 horizontally.
[0062] The connection part of the rotation drive assembly 12 and the box body 1 is located below the center of the box body 1. Therefore, after the box body 1 rotates 90°, the box body 1 can be placed on the upper end of the conveyor belt 17.
[0063] After the box body 1 rotates 90°, the lifting and lowering assembly drives the support plate 3 to move towards the opening position of the box body 1, and pushes the items inside the box body 1 onto the conveyor belt, completing the item storage step.
[0064] Steps for taking items:
[0065] Input the types and quantities of the items to be taken through the controller 10. The linear module 11 drives the box body 1 to the lower part of the conveyor belt 17 where the specified items are stored. The telescopic device 13 drives the linear module 11 and the box body 1 to move horizontally, so that the opening of the box body 1 partially overlaps with the end of the conveyor belt 17, and the items sliding down from the conveyor belt 17 can fall into the box body 1.
[0066] After the box body 1 is in place, the conveyor belt 17 moves, and the items above move to the end of the conveyor belt 17 and then fall into the box body 1. The weight is measured by the weighing sensor 4. When the weight reaches the threshold, the conveyor belt 17 stops moving, completing the work of quantitatively taking items, and at the same time, the quantity of the taken items is displayed on the display screen of the controller 10.
[0067] If too many items are taken, the extra items can be put back into the interior of the box body 1, and the steps of storing items in the intelligent shelf can be repeated.
[0068] During the above two steps, the controller 10 is connected to the material management system through the remote transmission module, and the access information of the items is recorded in real time to achieve intelligent statistics.
[0069] A human body recognition device, such as a fingerprint recognition device or a face recognition device, can be added to the controller 10. After the human body is recognized, the operation can be performed on it, and then the material management information can be completed.
[0070] The embodiments of the present application have been described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present application is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made without departing from the purpose of the present application within the scope of knowledge possessed by those of ordinary skill in the art.
