Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of handling equipment, and relates to an AGV carrier, in particular to a bin AGV carrier capable of automatically docking for loading and unloading. Background Art
[0002] Currently, indoor AGVs (Automatic Guided Vehicles) are mainly applied in warehouses and production workshops. The most common operation of AGV carriers in warehouses and production workshops is handling, and when handling, it is necessary to handle bins and bin racks. Existing AGV carriers can only handle bins or bin racks during handling, and manual assistance is required during handling. Therefore, there is a need for an AGV carrier that can handle both bins and bin racks and can automatically load and unload.
[0003] After retrieval, as disclosed in a Chinese patent document for an AGV carrier [Application No.: 202322589222.9; Publication No.: CN220886888U]. This AGV carrier includes a vehicle body and a carrier frame. An electric lifting rod is provided at the top of the vehicle body, and the carrier frame is provided at the top of the electric lifting rod. A plurality of electric telescopic rods are provided on the side wall of the inner cavity of the carrier frame, and a first clamping plate is provided at one end of the electric telescopic rod. Sliding grooves are symmetrically provided on the side walls of the two first clamping plates.
[0004] Although the two first clamping plates disclosed in this patent are convenient for fixing the four sides of the goods, however, this bin AGV carrier cannot handle bins on the ground and at heights, nor can it handle bin racks.
[0005] Therefore, we propose a bin AGV carrier capable of automatically docking for loading and unloading, which can stably handle bins at multiple positions, can perform automatic docking for loading and unloading, and can push bin racks. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The object of the present invention is to address the above problems existing in the prior art and propose a bin AGV carrier capable of automatically docking for loading and unloading. The technical problem to be solved by this invention is: how to achieve stable handling of bins at multiple positions for automatic docking for loading and unloading and pushing bin racks.
[0007] The object of the present invention can be achieved by the following technical solutions:
[0008] A bin AGV transporter capable of automatically docking for loading and unloading, comprising an AGV transporter. Support telescopic mechanisms are provided on both the left and right sides of the AGV transporter. Support gripper assemblies are rotatably provided at both ends of the support telescopic rod mechanisms. Drive motors six are provided at both ends of the support telescopic mechanisms. The output shafts of the two drive motors six are in transmission connection with the support gripper assemblies at the corresponding positions. A scissor lift assembly is provided on the AGV transporter. Symmetrically arranged robotic arm assemblies are rotatably provided on both the left and right sides of the scissor lift assembly. Clamping assemblies are provided on the robotic arm assemblies. A discharging assembly is hinged above the scissor lift assembly. The width of the scissor lift assembly is equal to the width of the discharging assembly. The sum of the width of the scissor lift assembly and the maximum width of the two robotic arm assemblies is less than or equal to the width of the AGV transporter.
[0009] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: The staff sets the positions of the bin and the bin shelf, and then starts the AGV transporter.
[0010] When transporting the bin shelf, the AGV transporter moves to the position of the bin shelf. The support telescopic mechanisms on both sides drive the support gripper assemblies at the corresponding positions to move. Subsequently, the output shafts of the four drive motors six drive the support gripper assemblies at the corresponding positions to move to the position of the bin shelf frame. The support gripper assemblies move to clamp the bin shelf frame. After clamping, the AGV transporter moves, driving the two support telescopic mechanisms and the support gripper assemblies at the corresponding positions to push the bin shelf to the set position. The two support telescopic mechanisms and the support gripper assemblies at the corresponding positions return to the initial position, completing one transportation.
[0011] When transporting the bin on the ground, the AGV transporter moves to the position of the bin. The support telescopic mechanisms on both sides drive the drive motors six and the support gripper assemblies at the corresponding positions to move. Subsequently, the output shafts of the four drive motors six drive the support gripper assemblies at the corresponding positions to move. The four support gripper assemblies abut against the ground. Then, the two robotic arm assemblies drive the clamping assemblies at the corresponding positions to move to the position of the bin. The two clamping assemblies move to clamp the bin and place the bin on the discharging assembly. The two clamping assemblies do not release the clamping. Subsequently, the AGV transporter drives the discharging assembly and the bin thereon to the set position. When discharging the bin, the two robotic arm assemblies move to drive the clamping assemblies at the corresponding positions to move. The two clamping assemblies form a slope at the rear side of the AGV transporter. The discharging assembly moves, and the bin thereon slides from the discharging assembly onto the slope. The two robotic arm assemblies and the two clamping assemblies are dynamically adjusted to enable the bin to slide quickly and stably from the slope to the set position. The two robotic arm assemblies and the two clamping assemblies return to the initial position, completing one transportation.
[0012] When transporting a high-positioned material box, the AGV carrier moves to the position of the material box. The two support telescopic mechanisms drive the drive motors six and the support jaw assemblies at the corresponding positions to move. Subsequently, the output shafts of the four drive motors six drive the support jaw assemblies at the corresponding positions to move. The four support jaw assemblies abut against the ground. Then, the scissor lift assembly drives the unloading assembly, the two robotic arm assemblies, and the two clamping assemblies to move upward. Subsequently, the two robotic arm assemblies drive the clamping assemblies at the corresponding positions to move to the position of the material box. The two clamping assemblies move to clamp the material box. The two robotic arm assemblies drive the clamping assemblies at the corresponding positions and the clamped material box to move, and place the material box on the unloading assembly. Then, the scissor lift assembly drives the unloading assembly, the two robotic arm assemblies, the two clamping assemblies, and the material box to move downward. The scissor lift assembly returns to the initial position. The two robotic arm assemblies drive the clamping assemblies at the corresponding positions to clamp the material box again. Subsequently, the AGV carrier drives the unloading assembly and the material box thereon to move to the set position. The two robotic arm assemblies drive the clamping assemblies at the corresponding positions to place the clamped material box at the set position. Then, the two robotic arm assemblies drive the clamping assemblies at the corresponding positions to return to the initial position, completing one transportation;
[0013] During transportation, when the weight of the material box exceeds the set value, the transportation stops and an alarm message is sent to remind the staff.

An avoidance hole two is formed on the inner side of the clamping arm, and an electric gripper two is detachably arranged at the end of the clamping arm.
[0024] With the above structure, when the output shaft of the driving motor four rotates, it reacts to make the mechanical telescopic arm and the driving motor four move. The mechanical telescopic arm drives the connecting arm and the clamping arm to move. The output shaft of the driving motor two drives the connecting arm to move, and the movement of the connecting arm drives the clamping arm to move.

[0025] The clamping component includes two fixed seats and a hinged clamping seat. The two fixed seats are fixed inside the clamping arm. A double-threaded electric lead screw member is arranged between the two fixed seats. Transmission blocks are arranged at both ends of the double-threaded electric lead screw member.

A double-threaded electric screw rod member 31 is arranged between the two fixed seats 34. Transmission blocks 32 are arranged at both ends of the double-threaded electric screw rod member 31. Two connecting rods 33 are hinged at both ends of the hinged clamping seat 35. The two connecting rods 33 at the same end are hinged to the transmission block 32 at the same end. A C-shaped clamping plate 30 is fixed on the side of the hinged clamping seat 35. A number of rollers are rotatably arranged on the inner end face of the C-shaped clamping plate 30. The number of rollers protrudes from the upper end face of the C-shaped clamping plate 30. When in the unclamped state, the C-shaped clamping plate 30 and the number of rollers thereon are embedded in the avoidance hole two 29, and the C-shaped clamping plate 30 is flush with the inner end face of the clamping arm 28.
[0066] In this embodiment, the double-threaded electric screw rod member 31 drives the two transmission blocks 32 to move in opposite directions. The two transmission blocks 32 drive the connecting rods 33 at the corresponding positions to move. The four connecting rods 33 cooperate to push the hinged clamping seat 35 to move. The hinged clamping seat 35 drives the C-shaped clamping plate 30 to move. The C-shaped clamping plate 30 slides in the avoidance hole two 29 and extends out of the avoidance hole two 29;
[0067] When unloading the material box, the two C-shaped clamping plates 30 move away from the avoidance hole two 29 and cooperate with each other to form a slope. The material box slides into the slope and lands on a number of rollers, and then slides down the slope from the rollers.
[0068] The unloading assembly 6 includes a unloading plate 36. The unloading plate 36 is hinged on the hinge seat two 14. Two symmetrically arranged embedding grooves four 39 are formed on the lower end surface of the unloading plate 36. The embedding grooves four 39 are located directly above the avoidance holes one 18 on the same side. Hinge seats four 38 are fixed at the front ends of the embedding grooves four 39. Hydraulic push rods two 37 are hinged on the hinge seats four 38 respectively. The bottoms of the hydraulic push rods two 37 are hinged on the bearing seats 13 at corresponding positions. A friction cushion plate is detachably arranged on the upper end surface of the unloading plate 36.
[0069] In this embodiment, the staff replaces the appropriate friction cushion plate according to the shape and specification of the material box. When unloading the material box, the telescopic ends of the two hydraulic push rods two 37 extend simultaneously, pushing the hinge seats four 38 at corresponding positions, thereby pushing the unloading plate 36 and the material box thereon, so that the unloading plate 36 forms a certain angle with the upper end surface of the lifting cover. The material box overcomes the friction force with the unloading plate 36, and then the material box slides down from the unloading plate 36. The friction cushion plate adjusts the sliding angle and speed of the material box at the beginning of sliding through the friction force with the material box.
[0070] The working principle of the present invention: The staff sets the parameters on the control computer, replaces the appropriate friction cushion plate according to the shape and specification of the material box, and then starts the AGV carrier 1;
[0071] When carrying the material box shelf, the AGV carrier 1 moves to the position of the material box shelf. The support telescopic mechanisms 3 on both sides drive the support jaw assemblies 4 at corresponding positions to move. That is, the output shafts of the two drive motors three 40 drive the two support arms 19 at corresponding positions to move away from the embedding grooves one 9. Then the four electric telescopic rods drive the support telescopic rods 33 at corresponding positions to extend. Then the output shafts of the four drive motors six drive the hinge seats three 21 at corresponding positions to move, adjusting the positions of the hinge seats three 21, the electric push rods 23 and the electric jaws one 24. The output shafts of the four drive motors one 22 drive the electric push rods 23 and the electric jaws one 24 at corresponding positions to move and adjust the positions. Then the telescopic ends of the electric push rods 23 drive the electric jaws one 24 to clamp on the material box shelf frame at the position of the material box shelf frame. The electric jaws one 24 move to clamp the material box shelf frame. After clamping, the AGV carrier 1 moves, driving the two support telescopic mechanisms 3 and the support jaw assemblies 4 at corresponding positions to push the material box shelf to the set position, completing one transportation;
[0072] When transporting the ground bin, the AGV carrier 1 moves to the bin. The support telescopic mechanisms 3 on both sides drive the corresponding drive motors six and the support jaw assemblies 4 to move. Subsequently, the output shafts of the four drive motors six drive the corresponding support jaw assemblies 4 to move. The four support jaw assemblies 4 abut against the ground. That is, the output shafts of the four drive motors six drive the corresponding hinge seats three 21 to rotate. The four hinge seats three 21 drive the corresponding electric push rods 23 and the electric grippers one 24 to rotate, so that the electric push rods 23 and the electric grippers one 24 face the ground. Subsequently, the telescopic ends of the four electric push rods 23 drive the corresponding electric grippers one 24 to move, so that the electric grippers one 24 abut against the ground. Subsequently, the two robotic arm assemblies 5 drive the corresponding clamping assemblies 8 to move to the bin position. That is, the output shafts of the two drive motors four rotate, and the reaction causes the corresponding mechanical telescopic arms 25 and the drive motors four to move. The two mechanical telescopic arms 25 drive the corresponding connecting arms 27 and the clamping arms 28 to move. The output shafts of the two drive motors two 26 drive the corresponding connecting arms 27 to move. The two connecting arms 27 drive the corresponding clamping arms 28 to move. The output shaft of the drive motor five rotates, and the reaction causes the clamping arm 28 to move. The clamping arm 28 drives the clamping assembly 8 to move. The two clamping assemblies 8 move to clamp the bin and place the bin on the unloading assembly 6. That is, the two double-threaded electric screw rod members 31 drive the two corresponding transmission blocks 32 to move in the opposite direction. The four transmission blocks 32 drive the corresponding connecting rods 33 to move. The four connecting rods 33 on the same side cooperate to push the hinge clamping seats 35 to move. The two hinge clamping seats 35 drive the corresponding C-shaped clamping plates 30 to move. The two C-shaped clamping plates 30 leave the corresponding avoidance holes two 29. The two C-shaped clamping plates 30 cooperate to clamp the bin and place the bin on the unloading plate 36. The two clamping assemblies 8 do not release the clamping. Subsequently, the AGV carrier 1 drives the unloading plate 36 and the bin thereon to move to the set position. When unloading the bin, the two robotic arm assemblies 5 move to drive the corresponding clamping assemblies 8 to move. The two clamping assemblies 8 form a ramp at the rear side of the AGV carrier 1. The unloading assembly 6 moves. That is, the telescopic ends of the two hydraulic push rods two 37 extend simultaneously, pushing the corresponding hinge seats four 38, thereby pushing the unloading plate 36 and the bin thereon, so that the unloading plate 36 forms a certain angle with the upper end surface of the lifting cover. The bin overcomes the friction force between the friction cushion plate on the unloading plate 36. Subsequently, the bin slides from the unloading plate 36 onto the ramp and lands on several rollers. The two robotic arm assemblies 5 and the two clamping assemblies 8 dynamically adjust, so that the bin quickly and stably slides from the several rollers to the set position. The friction cushion plate adjusts the starting sliding angle and the sliding speed of the bin through the friction force with the bin. The two robotic arm assemblies 5 and the two clamping assemblies 8 return to the initial position, completing one transportation;
[0073] When transporting the high-positioned material box, the AGV carrier 1 moves to the position of the material box. The two support telescopic mechanisms 3 drive the corresponding drive motor six and the support jaw assemblies 4 to move. Subsequently, the output shafts of the four drive motors six drive the corresponding support jaw assemblies 4 to move. The four support jaw assemblies 4 abut against the ground. Then, the scissor lift assembly 2 drives the unloading assembly 6, the two robotic arm assemblies 5, and the two clamping assemblies 8 to move upward. That is, the telescopic ends of the two hydraulic push rods 17 drive the rear side of the scissor lift 16 to slide on the sliding rail 12, causing the scissor lift 16 to perform a lifting motion, thereby driving the lifting cover 15 to perform a lifting motion. Subsequently, the two robotic arm assemblies 5 drive the corresponding clamping assemblies 8 to move to the position of the material box. The two clamping assemblies 8 move to clamp the material box. The two robotic arm assemblies 5 drive the corresponding clamping assemblies 8 and the clamped material box to move, and place the material box on the unloading assembly 6. Then, the scissor lift assembly 2 drives the unloading assembly 6, the two robotic arm assemblies 5, the two clamping assemblies 8, and the material box to move downward. The scissor lift assembly 2 returns to the initial position. The two robotic arm assemblies 5 drive the corresponding clamping assemblies 8 to clamp the material box again. Subsequently, the AGV carrier 1 drives the unloading assembly 6 and the material box thereon to move to the set position. The two robotic arm assemblies 5 drive the corresponding clamping assemblies 8 to place the clamped material box at the set position. Then, the two robotic arm assemblies 5 drive the corresponding clamping assemblies 8 to return to the initial position, completing one transportation;
[0074] During transportation, the electric gripper two 42 assists in transporting the material box and the goods inside the material box. When several weighing sensors detect that the pressure exceeds the set value, the transportation is temporarily stopped, and an alarm message is sent to the staff through the control computer.
[0075] In summary, the AGV carrier 1 transports the material box to the set position, and the support telescopic mechanism 3 and the support jaw assembly 4 cooperate to clamp the material box shelf, and cooperate with the AGV carrier 1 to realize the pushing and transporting of the material box shelf;
[0076] The ground is supported by the support telescopic mechanism 3 to ensure the structural stability during the transportation of the material box and prevent tipping;
[0077] Through the cooperation of the robotic arm assembly 5 and the clamping assembly 8, the material box can be automatically transported horizontally, the automatic docking of loading and unloading can be completed, and the material box on the ground can be transported to be placed on the unloading assembly 6, which is convenient for the horizontal transportation of the material box. And the clamping assembly 8 maintains the clamping state during transportation to ensure stable transportation and prevent the material box from falling;
[0078] Through the cooperation of the scissor lift assembly 2 and the unloading assembly 6, the material box is driven to lift, realizing the docking of loading and unloading at different heights;
[0079] The unloading assembly 6 is tilted to make the material box slide onto the slope formed by the cooperation of the robotic arm assembly 5 and the clamping assembly 8 for dynamic adjustment, and the material box is quickly and stably unloaded.
