[0046] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0047] Example:

[0048] Please see Figure 1-10The present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0049] An information management device for automated storage and retrieval systems includes:

[0050] The main body of the shelving unit consists of an adjustment mechanism and an information management system.

[0051] Please see Figure 1-4 , Figure 6 and Figure 8-10 An adjustment mechanism is provided on the main body 1 of the shelf for adjusting the position of the information management unit. The adjustment mechanism consists of a lateral moving component 2 and a longitudinal moving component 3, as described in detail below:

[0052] The lateral movement component 2 is set on the rack body 1 and is used for the lateral movement of the information management mechanism. Specifically, the lateral movement component 2 includes a mounting screw 201, which is rotatably embedded between the outer walls of both sides of the rack body 1. The outer surface of the mounting screw 201 is threaded with a mounting screw block 202, and a mounting seat 203 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the mounting screw block 202.

[0053] The longitudinal moving component 3 is disposed on the transverse moving component 2 and is used for the longitudinal movement of the information management mechanism. Specifically, the longitudinal moving component 3 includes a limiting rod 301, which is fixedly installed on the top of the mounting base 203. The outer surface of the limiting rod 301 is movably fitted with a mounting plate 302. The bottom of the mounting base 203 is fixedly installed with a mounting rod 303. The outer surface of the mounting rod 303 is movably fitted with a drive frame 304, and the drive frame 304 and the mounting plate 302 are fixedly connected. The outer wall of the drive frame 304 is rotatably embedded with a mounting shaft 305. The outer surface of the mounting shaft 305 is fixedly fitted with a gear 306. A rack 307 is embedded on one side of the outer wall of the mounting rod 303, and the rack 307 and the gear 306 mesh.

[0054] In this embodiment, the rack body 1 is used for goods storage. The information management mechanism facilitates the input of goods. The rotation of the mounting screw 201 facilitates the horizontal movement of the mounting screw block 202 and the mounting base 203, which in turn facilitates the lateral position adjustment of the information management mechanism. The rotation of the mounting shaft 305 on the drive frame 304 facilitates the rotation of the gear 306. Since the gear 306 and the rack 307 on the mounting rod 303 mesh, the mounting plate 302 is moved on the limit rod 301 and the mounting rod 303, which in turn facilitates the longitudinal position adjustment of the information management mechanism. The lateral movement component 2 and the longitudinal movement component 3 in the adjustment mechanism can drive the information management mechanism to move in all directions on one side of the rack body 1, which facilitates the quick search and positioning of stored goods, saves the time and manpower wasted in manually searching for goods, and improves the efficiency of warehouse rack information management.

[0055] Please see Figure 3-4 , Figure 6 as well as Figure 9-10 The lateral movement component 2 also includes a fixing plate 204, which is fixedly installed between the top of the limiting rod 301 and the mounting rod 303. Two moving wheels 205 are installed at the bottom of the fixing plate 204. A limiting groove is correspondingly opened on the top of the shelf body 1. A first motor 206 is fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of the shelf body 1. The output end of the first motor 206 is fixedly connected to one end of the mounting screw 201.

[0056] The longitudinal moving assembly 3 also includes a worm gear 308 and a worm 309. The worm gear 308 is fixedly sleeved on the outer surface of the mounting shaft 305, and the worm 309 is rotatably embedded between the outer walls of the drive frame 304. The worm 309 and the worm gear 308 are engaged. A second motor 310 is fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of the drive frame 304, and the output end of the second motor 310 is fixedly connected to one end of the worm 309.

[0057] In this embodiment, the stability between the limiting rod 301 and the mounting rod 303 is improved by the fixing plate 204. The friction between the fixing plate 204 and the shelf body 1 is reduced by the cooperation of the moving wheel 205 on the fixing plate 204 and the limiting groove on the shelf body 1, thereby improving the use effect of the lateral movement component 2. The first motor 206 facilitates the rotation of the mounting screw 201, improving the ease of use of the lateral movement component 2. The second motor 310 facilitates the rotation of the worm gear 309. Since the worm gear 309 and the worm wheel 308 mesh, it is convenient to drive the mounting shaft 305 to rotate, improving the ease of use of the longitudinal movement component 3. At the same time, the cooperation of the worm gear 309 and the worm wheel 308 makes it convenient for the information management mechanism to stay stably when searching for goods, improving the use effect of the adjustment mechanism.

[0058] Please see Figure 6 and Figure 8 Limiting strips 4 are fixedly connected to the inner walls on both sides of the drive frame 304, and corresponding limiting grooves are opened on the outer walls on both sides of the mounting rod 303.

[0059] In this embodiment, the sliding stability of the mounting plate 302 on the mounting rod 303 and the limiting rod 301 is further improved by the cooperation of the limiting strip and the limiting groove.

[0060] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6-7 An information management mechanism is provided on the adjustment mechanism for managing the goods information on the shelf body 1. The information management mechanism consists of an information input component 5 and a search component 6, as described in detail below:

[0061] The information entry component 5 is mounted on the mounting plate 302 and is used for entering goods information. Specifically, the information entry component 5 includes a scanner 501, which is fixedly mounted on one side of the outer wall of the mounting plate 302. A scanning panel 502 is provided on one side of the outer wall of the scanner 501. The information entry component 5 also includes a printer 503, which is fixedly mounted on one side of the outer wall of the mounting plate 302. A printing outlet is provided on one side of the outer wall of the printer 503.

[0062] The search component 6 is mounted on the mounting plate 302 and is used for goods search. Specifically, the search component 6 includes a mounting frame 601, which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one side of the mounting plate 302. A camera 602 is fixedly mounted on the outer wall of one side of the mounting frame 601. The search component 6 also includes a laser pointer 603 and a buzzer 604, both of which are fixedly mounted on the outer wall of the mounting frame 601.

[0063] In this embodiment, the scanning panel 502 on the scanner 501 facilitates the input of goods, the printer 503 facilitates the printing of information based on the input information, and the printing outlet facilitates the removal of information labels. The mounting frame 601 is fixed on the mounting plate 302, which facilitates the movement of the camera 602 and the laser pointer 603 with the adjustment mechanism. The camera 602 facilitates the monitoring of goods on the shelf body 1, the laser pointer 603 facilitates the indication of goods to be removed, and the buzzer 604 facilitates reminders, thereby improving the efficiency of goods information management. The scanner 501, camera 602, laser pointer 603, and buzzer 604 are all existing technologies and will not be described in detail here.

[0064] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 5 A storage battery 7 is fixedly installed between the inner walls of the mounting frame 601.

[0065] In this embodiment, the storage battery 7 provides convenient power to the information management organization.

[0066] Working principle: In the initial state, the information management unit is located on one side of the shelf body 1 and close to the ground. When goods are entered, the information of the goods is entered by the scanner 501, and the information of the goods is printed into a label by the printer 503. The label is affixed to the surface of the goods and placed on the shelf body 1. When the goods are taken out, the first motor 206 and the second motor 310 are started. The first motor 206 drives the mounting screw 201 to rotate, which drives the mounting screw block 202 and the mounting base 203 to move to the corresponding position. The moving wheel 205 on the fixing plate 204 cooperates with the limiting groove on the shelf body 1 to improve the stability of the movement of the mounting base 203 and the fixing plate 204. The second motor 310 drives the worm gear... When rod 309 rotates, it engages with worm gear 308 to drive mounting shaft 305 on drive frame 304 to rotate, which in turn drives gear 306 to rotate. Since gear 306 meshes with rack 307 on mounting rod 303, it drives mounting plate 302 to move between limit rod 301 and the outer surface of mounting rod 303, thus moving information management mechanism. With the cooperation of camera 602, the information management mechanism moves to the location of goods to be retrieved. Laser indicator 603 emits laser light, illuminating the surface of goods to be retrieved. At the same time, buzzer 604 is activated to remind the person retrieving the goods. Meanwhile, scanner 501 records the information of goods to be retrieved, improving the efficiency of warehouse racking information management.
