Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a garment hanging conveying device, in particular to a pattern piece hanging conveying device and conveying method based on flexible production. BACKGROUND

[0002] The existing garment hanging conveying system is similar to the patent 202110503355.2, which is mainly composed of a running main rail, a running branch rail, a driving mechanism, a chassis and a hanger. The hanger is directly hung on the chassis, and the running main rail and the running branch rail are connected to each other through a steering mechanism, so that the chassis can be conveyed along the running main rail under the drive of the driving mechanism, and can be transferred to the designated running branch rail according to the requirement, and the hanger together with the garment can be taken off from the chassis by the corresponding work station of the running branch rail and processed. On this basis, in order to realize the conveying and discharging function of the garment, the existing garment hanging conveying system also sets up an FRID electronic tag identification system, that is, an FRID electronic tag is installed on the hanger, and an RFID identifier is installed at different positions of the running main rail and the outlet of each running branch rail, so that the system can identify the FRID electronic tag on each hanger at the identification position, and then obtain the current state and subsequent conveying direction of the garment corresponding to the hanger, so as to realize real-time monitoring of the garment during the manufacturing process.

[0003] However, the defect of the device is that the FRID electronic tag identification system is used to identify and input the state of the garment parts, which can realize the whole process monitoring of the garment parts during the manufacturing process, but the equipment cost is relatively high, which is difficult to meet the price demand of small production manufacturers for the garment hanging conveying device. Compared with the FRID electronic tag identification system, the two-dimensional code identification system can greatly reduce the monitoring cost, but due to the left and right shaking of the hanger during transportation, it is difficult for the code reader to accurately read the two-dimensional code on the hanger, so it cannot replace the FRID electronic tag identification system in the garment hanging conveying device, that is, the cost of the garment hanging conveying device is inevitably increased.

[0004] In addition, the method of identifying the current state of the garment by identifying the RFID electronic tag may also cause the system to identify the state of the garment that is inconsistent with the actual state of the garment due to problems such as RFID electronic tag failure loss or RFID identifier unable to identify in time. Once the RFID electronic tag cannot be identified in time, the system will judge that there is no hanger on the chassis, and then control the chassis to move in a cycle on the running branch rail without entering the next process, which affects the processing stability of the garment.

[0005] Therefore, the existing garment hanging conveying device has the problems of high equipment cost and poor stability. SUMMARY

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a garment hanging conveyor device and conveying method based on flexible production. It can reduce equipment costs and improve the operational stability of the device.

[0007] The technical solution of the present invention: A garment piece hanging conveying device based on flexible production includes a main running rail and a running support rail. The running support rail is arranged in a ring and is connected to the main running rail through a feeding station and a discharging station respectively. The feeding station is provided with a first guiding mechanism and a first detection unit, and the discharging station is provided with a second guiding mechanism and a second detection unit. Multiple operating stations are distributed at intervals on the running support rail, and each operating station is provided with a third detection unit. It also includes a chassis connected to the main running rail or the running support rail. The chassis is equipped with QR codes that cooperate with the first detection unit, the second detection unit and the third detection unit. A clothes hanger is connected to the lower end of the chassis. The chassis includes a support tube. A roller is rotatably connected to the upper end of the side wall of the support tube. The outside of the roller is rolled on the main running rail or the running support rail. A mounting base is fixedly connected to the bottom of the support tube. A clothes hanger is connected to the mounting base via a hanging assembly.

[0008] In the aforementioned garment hanging conveyor based on flexible production, the hanging assembly includes a clamp plate connected to the mounting base and a pressure block connected to the garment hanger. The clamp plate and the pressure block are interlocked with each other. The end of the pressure block extends to the outside of the clamp plate and forms a top. A trigger rod is slidably connected to the middle of the support tube. The lower end of the trigger rod is in contact with the top, and the upper end of the trigger rod extends to the outside of the support tube and is connected to an L-shaped detection plate.

[0009] In the aforementioned garment hanging conveyor based on flexible production, the pressure block is provided with symmetrical first limiting teeth on both sides, and the number of clamps is two and they are symmetrically arranged on the mounting seats on both sides of the pressure block. One end of the clamp is rotatably connected to the mounting seat, and the other end of the clamp is connected to the mounting seat through a first elastic element. The clamp forms a second limiting tooth on the side of the clamp that cooperates with the first limiting tooth. The second limiting tooth is used to unidirectionally limit the first limiting tooth after the first limiting tooth is engaged.

[0010] In the aforementioned garment hanging conveyor based on flexible production, the clamping plate is provided with side guards on both sides for laterally limiting the pressure block, and the second limiting tooth is located on the clamping plate between the two side guards.

[0011] In the aforementioned garment hanging conveyor based on flexible production, the lower end of the trigger rod extends into the mounting base and is threadedly connected to a limiting sleeve, and the top head and the limiting sleeve fit together.

[0012] In the aforementioned garment hanging conveyor based on flexible production, the mounting base is C-shaped, with clamping plates connected to both sides of the mounting base via rotating plates. The tops of the rotating plates on both sides are connected to each other via cross bracing plates. The cross bracing plates are used to unidirectionally limit the rotation angle of the clamping plates. The upper end of the pressure block is in contact with the cross bracing plates, and the upper end of the top head passes through the cross bracing plates and is in contact with the limiting sleeve.

[0013] In the aforementioned garment hanging conveyor based on flexible production, a second elastic element is connected between the limiting sleeve and the mounting base. The second elastic element is used to apply a squeezing force toward the pressure block to the limiting sleeve.

[0014] In the aforementioned garment hanging conveyor based on flexible production, the first detection unit includes a first detection component and a first code reader arranged at intervals along the main running rail conveying direction. Both the first detection component and the first code reader are located on the main running rail at the front end of the feeding station. The second detection unit includes a second detection component and a second code reader that are arranged at intervals along the conveying direction of the running support rail. Both the second detection component and the second code reader are located on the main running rail at the front end of the discharge station. The third detection unit includes a third detection component and a third code reader that are arranged at intervals along the transport direction of the running support rail. The first detection component, the second detection component, and the third detection component have the same structure, each including a first photoelectric sensor and a second photoelectric sensor arranged side by side, and both the first photoelectric sensor and the second photoelectric sensor are used to detect the detection board.

[0015] It also includes a conveying method based on the aforementioned garment hanging conveyor device for flexible production, the conveying method specifically being: The first detection unit scans the QR code on the chassis located on the main running rail. If the chassis meets the feeding requirements, the first guide mechanism controls the chassis to enter the running support rail; if the chassis does not meet the feeding requirements, the first guide mechanism controls the chassis to continue to be conveyed forward. An operator at any workstation issues a processing signal, and upon receiving the signal, the running support rail transports the chassis to that workstation. The third detection unit at the workstation scans the QR code on the chassis. If the chassis meets the processing requirements, the running support rail stops transporting the chassis, and the operator at the current workstation operates the chassis, clearing the processing signal. If the chassis does not meet the processing requirements, the running support rail controls the chassis to continue transporting forward. The chassis is transported to the discharge station by the running support rail, and the second detection unit at the discharge station scans the QR code on the chassis. If the chassis meets the discharge requirements, the second guide mechanism controls the chassis to enter the running main rail; if the chassis does not meet the discharge requirements, the second guide mechanism controls the chassis to continue to circulate along the running support rail.

[0016] In the aforementioned conveying method, the feeding requirement is that the first barcode reader reads the status of the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code as unprocessed, and the first detection component detects that a hanger is placed on the chassis. The discharge requirements are that the second barcode reader reads the status of the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code as "processed", and the second detection component detects that there is a hanger placed on the chassis. The processing signals include delivery signals and retrieval signals, and the processing requirements include delivery requirements and retrieval requirements; the delivery requirement is that the third barcode reader reads that the QR code is in an empty state, and the third detection component detects that no hanger is placed on the chassis; the retrieval requirement is that the third barcode reader reads that the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code is in an unprocessed state, and the third detection component detects that a hanger is placed on the chassis.

[0017] In the aforementioned conveying method, when the first barcode reader reads that the status of the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code is not empty, and the first detection component detects that no hanger is placed on the chassis, an alarm signal is issued; when the first barcode reader reads that the status of the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code is empty, and the first detection component detects that a hanger is placed on the chassis, an alarm signal is issued. When the second barcode reader reads that the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code is in a non-empty state, and the second detection component detects that no hanger is placed on the chassis, an alarm signal is issued; when the second barcode reader reads that the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code is in an empty state, and the second detection component detects that a hanger is placed on the chassis, an alarm signal is issued. When the third barcode reader reads that the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code is in a non-empty state, and the third detection component detects that no hanger is placed on the chassis, an alarm signal is issued; when the third barcode reader reads that the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code is in an empty state, and the third detection component detects that a hanger is placed on the chassis, an alarm signal is issued.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following characteristics: (1) By limiting the connection structure between the chassis and the hanger, the hanger can be fixed to the mounting base by the interlocking of the clamp and the pressure block during installation, thereby improving the connection stability between the chassis and the hanger; at the same time, after the hanger is installed in place, the pressure block can push out the trigger rod, so that the detection plate at the upper end of the trigger rod slides to the trigger position; on this basis, by using the first photoelectric sensor and the second photoelectric sensor arranged side by side, the positioning detection of the chassis and the position detection of the hanger can be realized, thereby improving the monitoring effect of clothing accessories; (2) By limiting the connection structure of the clamping plate, the connection stability and clamping effect of the clamping plate on the mounting base can be improved. Then, when the pressure block is installed in place, the clamping plates on both sides can apply the squeezing force to the pressure block under the action of the first elastic element to prevent the pressure block from loosening and falling off. At the same time, when the pressure block is removed with the clothes hanger, the cross brace can replace the pressure block to rotate and limit the clamping plate, preventing the clamping plate from being over-closed, which may cause the pressure block to fail to be fastened smoothly or the first elastic element to loosen and fall off. (3) Based on the above, by improving the conveying method, the present invention can also set the QR code on the chassis while realizing the monitoring and identification functions, thereby effectively improving the identification stability of the QR code compared with the clothes hanger, so that the QR code identification system can be applied to the hanging conveying device to monitor clothing accessories, thereby reducing the equipment cost of the present invention; furthermore, when the clothing accessory status entered by the QR code is inconsistent with the actual status, the present invention can also identify and alarm, thereby effectively improving the working stability of the present invention; Therefore, the present invention can reduce equipment costs and improve the working stability of the device.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, but this should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0022] Example 1. A garment piece hanging conveyor based on flexible production, configured as follows: Figures 1-2 As shown, it includes a main running rail 1, a running support rail 2, and a chassis 3. Both the main running rail 1 and the running support rail 2 are connected to a drive mechanism. The chassis 3 is rolled on the main running rail 1 or the running support rail 2. The drive mechanism is used to drive the chassis 3 to move forward along the main running rail 1 or the running support rail 2. The running support rail 2 is arranged in a ring and is connected to the main running rail 1 through a feeding station and a discharging station, respectively. Both the feeding station and the discharging station are equipped with a guide mechanism, which is used to adjust the track direction between the main running rail 1 and the running support rail 2, so that the main running rail 1 and the running support rail 2 are in a state of separation or connection.

[0023] The lower end of the chassis 3 is connected to a clothes hanger 4; the chassis 3 includes a support tube 5, and a roller 6 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the side wall of the support tube 5. The outside of the roller 6 is rolledly connected to the main running rail 1 or the running support rail 2. The bottom of the support tube 5 is fixedly connected to a mounting base 7, and the clothes hanger 4 is connected to the mounting base 7 via a hanging component.

[0024] The hanging assembly includes a clamping plate 8 connected to the mounting base 7 and a pressure block 9 connected to the hanger 4. The clamping plate 8 and the pressure block 9 are interlocked. The end of the pressure block 9 extends to the outside of the clamping plate 8 and forms a top head 10. A trigger rod 11 is slidably connected to the middle of the support tube 5. The lower end of the trigger rod 11 is in contact with the top head 10. The upper end of the trigger rod 11 extends to the outside of the support tube 5 and is connected to an L-shaped detection plate 12.

[0025] The pressure block 9 has symmetrical first limiting teeth 901 on both sides. There are two clamping plates 8, which are symmetrically arranged on the mounting seats 7 on both sides of the pressure block 9. One end of the clamping plate 8 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 7, and the other end of the clamping plate 8 is connected to the mounting seat 7 via the first elastic element 14. The clamping plate 8 forms a second limiting tooth 801 on the side close to the pressure block 9, which cooperates with the first limiting tooth 901. The second limiting tooth 801 is used to unidirectionally limit the first limiting tooth 901 after it is engaged.

[0026] The clamping plate 8 is provided with side guards 802 on both sides for laterally limiting the pressure block 9, and the second limiting tooth 801 is located on the clamping plate 8 between the two side guards 802.

[0027] The lower end of the trigger rod 11 extends into the mounting base 7 and is threadedly connected to the limiting sleeve 15, with the top head 10 and the limiting sleeve 15 fitting together.

[0028] The mounting base 7 is C-shaped. The two sides of the mounting base 7 are connected to the clamping plate 8 via rotating plates 701. The tops of the two rotating plates 701 are connected to each other via cross bracing plates 702. The cross bracing plates 702 are used to limit the rotation angle of the clamping plate 8 in one direction. The upper end of the pressure block 9 is in contact with the cross bracing plates 702. The upper end of the top head 10 passes through the cross bracing plates 702 and is in contact with the limiting sleeve 15.

[0029] A second elastic element 16 is connected between the limiting sleeve 15 and the mounting base 7. The second elastic element 16 is used to apply a squeezing force toward the pressure block 9 to the limiting sleeve 15.

[0030] It also includes a detection component installed on the main running rail 1 or the running branch rail 2. The detection component includes a first photoelectric sensor 17 and a second photoelectric sensor 18 arranged side by side, and both the first photoelectric sensor 17 and the second photoelectric sensor 18 are used to detect the detection plate 12.

[0031] This embodiment, through structural limitations of the suspended conveyor device, enables the detection of the positioning of the chassis 3 and the presence of the hanger 4 on the chassis 3. In use, the operator installs the hanger 4 with clothing accessories onto the chassis 3. During installation, the pressure block 9 at the upper end of the hanger 4 is inserted between the two side clamps 8 on the mounting base 7, causing the clamps 8 to open outwards as the pressure block 9 is pressed in, and engaging with the first limiting teeth 901 on both sides of the pressure block 9 after the pressure block 9 is fully inserted. When the end of the pressure block 9 is in contact with the cross brace 702, the operator cannot press the pressure block 9 further inwards, indicating that the pressure block 9 is fully engaged. The top head 10 then presses against the limiting sleeve 15, causing the limiting sleeve 15 to overcome the elastic force of the second elastic element 16 and drive the trigger rod 11 to rise and fall to the trigger position.

[0032] When the chassis 3 is transported along the main running rail 1 or the running branch rail 2, the detection component detects the detection plate 12 on the chassis 3. If the first photoelectric sensor 17 is not triggered and the second photoelectric sensor 18 is triggered, it means that the chassis 3 has moved to the detection position and there is no clothes hanger 4 on the chassis 3. If the first photoelectric sensor 17 and the second photoelectric sensor 18 are triggered at the same time, it means that the chassis 3 has moved to the detection position and there is a clothes hanger 4 on the chassis 3.

[0033] Example 2. A garment hanging conveyor device based on flexible production, configured as follows: Figure 3As shown, it includes a main running rail 1, a running support rail 2, and a chassis 3. Both the main running rail 1 and the running support rail 2 are connected to a drive mechanism. The chassis 3 is rotatably connected to the main running rail 1 or the running support rail 2. The drive mechanism is used to drive the chassis 3 to move forward along the main running rail 1 or the running support rail 2. The running support rail 2 is arranged in a ring and is connected to the main running rail 1 through a feeding station and a discharging station respectively. The feeding station is equipped with a first guide mechanism and a first detection unit, and the discharging station is equipped with a second guide mechanism and a second detection unit. Multiple operating stations are distributed at intervals on the running support rail 2, and each operating station is equipped with a third detection unit.

[0034] Both the first guide mechanism and the second guide mechanism are used to adjust the track direction of the running support rail 2. When the first guide mechanism is in the first track position, the running main rail 1 and the running support rail 2 are separated from each other, and the chassis 3 on the running main rail 1 continues to be transported forward under the drive of the drive mechanism. When the first guide mechanism is in the second track position, the running support rail 2 and the running main rail 1 are connected to each other, and the first guide mechanism turns the chassis 3 during the movement, so that the chassis 3 is separated from the running main rail 1 and enters the running support rail 2. Similarly, when the second guide mechanism is in the first track position, the main running rail 1 and the running branch rail 2 are separated from each other, and the chassis 3 on the running branch rail 2 is circulated along the running branch rail 2 under the drive of the drive mechanism; when the second guide mechanism is in the second track position, the running branch rail 2 and the main running rail 1 are connected to each other, and the second guide mechanism turns the chassis 3 during its movement, so that the chassis 3 disengages from the running branch rail 2 and enters the main running rail 1 to continue forward transportation.

[0035] The chassis 3 is equipped with a QR code 13 that cooperates with the first detection unit, the second detection unit and the third detection unit. The lower end of the chassis 3 is connected to a clothes hanger 4. The chassis 3 includes a support tube 5. The QR code 13 is attached to the middle of the side wall of the support tube 5. The upper end of the side wall of the support tube 5 is rotatably connected to a roller 6. The outside of the roller 6 is rolledly connected to the main running rail 1 or the running support rail 2. The bottom of the support tube 5 is fixedly connected to a mounting base 7. The clothes hanger 4 is connected to the mounting base 7 via a hanging component.

[0036] The hanging assembly includes a clamping plate 8 connected to the mounting base 7 and a pressure block 9 connected to the hanger 4. The clamping plate 8 and the pressure block 9 are interlocked. The end of the pressure block 9 extends to the outside of the clamping plate 8 and forms a top head 10. A trigger rod 11 is slidably connected to the middle of the support tube 5. The lower end of the trigger rod 11 is in contact with the top head 10. The upper end of the trigger rod 11 extends to the outside of the support tube 5 and is connected to an L-shaped detection plate 12.

[0037] The pressure block 9 has symmetrical first limiting teeth 901 on both sides. There are two clamping plates 8, which are symmetrically arranged on the mounting seats 7 on both sides of the pressure block 9. One end of the clamping plate 8 is rotatably connected to the mounting seat 7, and the other end of the clamping plate 8 is connected to the mounting seat 7 via the first elastic element 14. The clamping plate 8 forms a second limiting tooth 801 on the side close to the pressure block 9, which cooperates with the first limiting tooth 901. The second limiting tooth 801 is used to unidirectionally limit the first limiting tooth 901 after it is engaged.

[0038] The clamping plate 8 is provided with side guards 802 on both sides for laterally limiting the pressure block 9, and the second limiting tooth 801 is located on the clamping plate 8 between the two side guards 802.

[0039] The lower end of the trigger rod 11 extends into the mounting base 7 and is threadedly connected to the limiting sleeve 15, with the top head 10 and the limiting sleeve 15 fitting together.

[0040] The mounting base 7 is C-shaped. The two sides of the mounting base 7 are connected to the clamping plate 8 via rotating plates 701. The tops of the two rotating plates 701 are connected to each other via cross bracing plates 702. The cross bracing plates 702 are used to limit the rotation angle of the clamping plate 8 in one direction. The upper end of the pressure block 9 is in contact with the cross bracing plates 702. The upper end of the top head 10 passes through the cross bracing plates 702 and is in contact with the limiting sleeve 15.

[0041] A second elastic element 16 is connected between the limiting sleeve 15 and the mounting base 7. The second elastic element 16 is used to apply a squeezing force toward the pressure block 9 to the limiting sleeve 15.

[0042] The first detection unit includes a first detection component and a first code reader that are arranged at intervals along the conveying direction of the main running rail 1. Both the first detection component and the first code reader are located on the main running rail 1 at the front end of the feeding station. The first code reader is located on one side of the QR code 13 in the horizontal direction. The second detection unit includes a second detection component and a second barcode reader that are arranged at intervals along the conveying direction of the running support rail 2. The second detection component and the second barcode reader are both located on the main running rail 1 at the front end of the discharge station. The second barcode reader is located on one side of the QR code 13 in the horizontal direction. The third detection unit includes a third detection component and a third barcode reader, which are arranged at intervals along the conveying direction of the running support rail 2. The third barcode reader is located on one side of the QR code 13 in the horizontal direction. The first detection component, the second detection component, and the third detection component have the same structure, each including a first photoelectric sensor 17 and a second photoelectric sensor 18 arranged side by side. Both the first photoelectric sensor 17 and the second photoelectric sensor 18 are used to detect the detection plate 12.

[0043] Compared with Embodiment 1, this embodiment further optimizes the detection mechanism of the chassis 3 based on the hanging assembly. Through the coordinated arrangement of the first detection unit, the second detection unit and the third detection unit, the first detection unit can identify the QR code 13 on the chassis 3 and detect the status of the clothes hanger 4 on the chassis 3 before the chassis 3 is transported to the first guide mechanism, thereby determining whether the chassis 3 needs to enter the running support rail 2 or continue to be transported forward along the running main rail 1.

[0044] Similarly, when an operator at any workstation needs to deliver or retrieve a piece, the third detection unit at the workstation can scan and identify the status of the garment accessories on the chassis 3 in the same way, thereby selecting the chassis 3 that meets the requirements and parking it at the workstation, making it convenient for the operator to carry out the operation.

[0045] When the chassis 3 moves along the running support rail 2 to the second guide mechanism, the third detection unit can scan and identify the status of the clothing accessories on the chassis 3. If the clothing accessory has been processed, the second guide mechanism controls the chassis 3 to leave the running support rail 2 and enter the running main rail 1. If the clothing accessory has not been processed or the chassis 3 is in an empty state without a hanger 4 installed, the chassis 3 continues to circulate and transport along the running support rail 2.

[0046] With the above-mentioned coordination, this embodiment can use QR code 13 to replace the FRID electronic tag identification system to monitor the garment hanging conveyor device, thereby effectively reducing the overall equipment cost of the device.

[0047] Example 3. Conveying method: This conveying method uses the garment hanging conveyor device of Example 2 to convey the chassis 3, specifically as follows: The first detection unit scans the QR code on the chassis located on the main running rail. If the chassis meets the feeding requirements, the first guide mechanism controls the chassis to enter the running support rail; if the chassis does not meet the feeding requirements, the first guide mechanism controls the chassis to continue to be conveyed forward. An operator at any workstation issues a processing signal, and upon receiving the signal, the running support rail transports the chassis to that workstation. The third detection unit at the workstation scans the QR code on the chassis. If the chassis meets the processing requirements, the running support rail stops transporting the chassis, and the operator at the current workstation operates the chassis, clearing the processing signal. If the chassis does not meet the processing requirements, the running support rail controls the chassis to continue transporting forward. The chassis is transported to the discharge station by the running support rail, and the second detection unit at the discharge station scans the QR code on the chassis. If the chassis meets the discharge requirements, the second guide mechanism controls the chassis to enter the running main rail; if the chassis does not meet the discharge requirements, the second guide mechanism controls the chassis to continue to circulate along the running support rail.

[0048] The feeding requirements are that the first barcode reader reads the status of the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code as unprocessed, and the first detection component detects that a hanger is placed on the chassis. The discharge requirements are that the second barcode reader reads the status of the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code as "processed", and the second detection component detects that there is a hanger placed on the chassis. The processing signals include delivery signals and retrieval signals, and the processing requirements include delivery requirements and retrieval requirements; the delivery requirement is that the third barcode reader reads that the QR code is in an empty state, and the third detection component detects that no hanger is placed on the chassis; the retrieval requirement is that the third barcode reader reads that the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code is in an unprocessed state, and the third detection component detects that a hanger is placed on the chassis.

[0049] When any workstation sends a delivery signal, the chassis is first transported to the current workstation by the running support rail. The third detection component reads the QR code on the chassis and checks the hangers on it to determine if the chassis meets the delivery requirements. If the clothing accessory information corresponding to the QR code is empty, and the third detection component detects that no hangers are placed on the chassis, the chassis is deemed to meet the requirements. The chassis stops transporting, and the operator places the processed clothing accessory onto the chassis using a hanger. Simultaneously, the system changes the QR code status from empty to processed. If the chassis does not meet the requirements, it is directly sent away from the workstation, and the next chassis is detected.

[0050] Similarly, when any workstation sends a pickup signal, the chassis is first transported to the current workstation by the running rail. The third detection component reads the QR code on the chassis and detects the hangers on it to determine if the chassis meets the delivery requirements. If the clothing accessory information corresponding to the QR code is unprocessed, and the third detection component detects a hanger on the chassis, the chassis is deemed to meet the requirements. The chassis stops transporting, and the operator removes the hanger. Simultaneously, the system changes the QR code status from unprocessed to empty. After the hanger is removed, the chassis continues to be transported forward along the running rail. If the chassis does not meet the requirements, it is directly sent away from the workstation, and the next chassis is detected.

[0051] When the first barcode reader reads that the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code is not in an empty state, and the first detection component detects that no hanger is placed on the chassis, an alarm signal is issued; when the first barcode reader reads that the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code is in an empty state, and the first detection component detects that a hanger is placed on the chassis, an alarm signal is issued to the system to remind the operator to handle the situation. When the second barcode reader reads that the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code is not in an empty state, and the second detection component detects that no hanger is placed on the chassis, an alarm signal is issued; when the second barcode reader reads that the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code is in an empty state, and the second detection component detects that a hanger is placed on the chassis, an alarm signal is issued to the system to remind the operator to handle the situation. When the third barcode reader reads that the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code is not in an empty state, and the third detection component detects that no hanger is placed on the chassis, an alarm signal is issued; when the third barcode reader reads that the clothing accessory corresponding to the QR code is in an empty state, and the third detection component detects that a hanger is placed on the chassis, an alarm signal is issued to the system to remind the operator to handle the situation.
