Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of warehousing, and in particular to an automated three-dimensional warehouse. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, automated storage and retrieval systems (AS / RS) are widely used in the logistics and warehousing field. Conventional designs often adopt fixed storage rack structures, which can realize automated storage and retrieval of goods, but their storage space is fixed and it is difficult to flexibly adjust according to actual warehousing needs.
[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, this patent proposes an automated storage and retrieval system (AS / RS) solution that allows for flexible adjustment of storage space as needed, thereby resolving the technical problems mentioned above. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The main objective of this invention is to propose an automated three-dimensional warehouse, which aims to solve the problem that traditional warehouses use fixed storage racks, making it difficult to flexibly adjust them according to actual storage needs.
[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, this invention proposes an automated three-dimensional warehouse, comprising an automatic conveyor for the automatic transfer of stored goods. The automatic conveyor has multiple storage racks located inside the warehouse on its side. Each storage rack contains multiple fixed trays for storing goods. Each storage rack has a telescopic component inside its open end, which can be used to increase or decrease the storage space.
[0006] Preferably, the telescopic component includes a retractable frame, which is provided on the outside of one open end of the storage rack, and the retractable frame is provided with a plurality of transverse partitions located on the outside of the fixed tray.
[0007] Preferably, each of the multiple transverse partitions has an extension tray corresponding to one of the multiple fixed trays at its inner end, and the fixed trays near the display rack and the extension trays away from the display rack are both inclined.
[0008] Preferably, the storage rack has multiple bracket grooves located at the lower end of multiple fixed trays on both sides of the end near the collection rack, and multiple stop bar grooves located at the upper end of multiple fixed trays on both sides of the storage rack near the collection rack.
[0009] Preferably, the outer ends of the plurality of bracket slides are connected to limiting slides formed on the outer wall of the storage rack, and a tray frame connected to the outside of the unfolding rack is slidably connected inside the bracket slide, and a telescopic groove is formed inside the upper end of the tray frame.
[0010] Preferably, the expansion tray is slidably connected inside the telescopic groove, and multiple support springs located inside the telescopic groove are provided on both sides of the lower end of the expansion tray. A limiting slider located inside the limiting groove is connected to the outer end of the tray frame away from the unfolding frame.
[0011] Preferably, a limiting stop bar connected to the outside of the unfolding frame is inserted inside the stop bar groove, and the limiting stop bar is located directly above the telescopic groove. A fixing bolt that passes through the inside of the extension tray is inserted inside the cross partition, and the fixing bolt can slide up and down inside the cross partition and can be threaded into the inside of the fixing tray. Beneficial effects
[0012] 1. This invention, by setting up telescopic components, allows storage racks to be flexibly adjusted between storage space and space occupation according to storage needs. This allows warehouses to increase storage capacity by unfolding the storage racks and reduce space occupation by retracting them, thereby maximizing the use of warehouse space.
[0013] 2. The telescopic assembly of the present invention unfolds and retracts through the sliding cooperation of the tray frame and the tray groove, and the limiting stop bar and the stop bar groove. It can also prevent the telescopic assembly from completely detaching from the storage rack through the limiting slider and the limiting groove, thus ensuring the safety and stability of the telescopic assembly's unfolding and retraction.
[0014] 3. In the unfolded state, the present invention can automatically pop the expansion tray out of the storage cavity and align it with the fixed tray without manual adjustment. The expansion tray, the cross partition and the fixed tray can be connected by a through thread through the fixing bolts to form a rigid whole, so that the storage rack can maintain structural stability in the maximum space state.
[0015] 4. When the present invention is retracted, simply pull out the fixing bolt and push the retracting frame backward. The inclined surfaces between the extended tray and the fixed tray will slide against each other, guiding the extended tray to slide smoothly back under the fixed tray for storage. At the same time, in the retracted state, the support spring will keep the extended tray tightly against the lower end of the fixed tray, which plays a good limiting role, prevents the storage rack from shaking, and ensures the stability of the storage equipment in the non-working state.

[0019] 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 a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0020] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives of the invention, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the present invention provides an automated storage and retrieval system (AS / RS), including an automatic conveyor 1 for automatic transport of stored goods. The automatic conveyor 1 has multiple storage racks 2 located inside the warehouse on its side. Each storage rack 2 has multiple fixed trays 3 inside, and the stored goods are placed on the multiple fixed trays 3. A telescopic component is provided inside one open end of the storage rack 2, which can be used to increase or decrease the storage space. During the storage process, the stored goods can be automatically transported by the automatic conveyor 1 and placed on the multiple fixed trays 3 inside the multiple storage racks 2.
[0021] The storage rack 2 can be expanded and retracted in conjunction with the telescopic components. When the storage rack 2 is expanded, the storage space is increased, and when the storage rack 2 is retracted, the space occupied is reduced, allowing the storage rack 2 to be flexibly adjusted in terms of storage capacity and space occupation according to storage needs.
[0022] Preferably, the telescopic assembly includes a retractable frame 4. The storage rack 2 has a retractable frame 4 installed outside one open end, and the retractable frame 4 has multiple transverse partitions 5 located outside the fixed trays 3 inside. The storage rack 2 has multiple bracket grooves 7 located at the lower ends of the multiple fixed trays 3 on both sides of the end near the retractable frame 4, and multiple stop bar grooves 8 located at the upper ends of the multiple fixed trays 3 on both sides of the end near the retractable frame 4. The outer ends of the multiple bracket grooves 7 are connected to limiting grooves 9 opened on the outer wall of the storage rack 2. The bracket grooves 7 are slidably connected to a tray frame 10 connected to the outside of the retractable frame 4 inside the bracket grooves 7. The outer end of the tray frame 10 is connected to the side away from the retractable frame 4. A limiting slider 13 is located inside the limiting groove 9, and a limiting stop bar 14 connected to the outside of the unfolding rack 4 is inserted inside the stop bar groove 8. During the unfolding and retraction of the storage rack 2, the unfolding rack 4 is connected to the storage rack 2 through the insertion between the tray frame 10 and the limiting stop bar 14 and the tray groove 7 and the stop bar groove 8. It can also unfold and retract with the storage rack 2 through the sliding between the tray frame 10 and the limiting stop bar 14 and the tray groove 7 and the stop bar groove 8. The tray frame 10 can be limited by the locking between the limiting groove 9 and the limiting slider 13, so that the unfolding rack 4 can be smoothly unfolded and retracted with the storage rack 2 without completely detaching.
[0023] Preferably, each of the multiple transverse partitions 5 has an extension tray 6 corresponding to a plurality of fixed trays 3 at its inner end. The fixed trays 3 are inclined at the end near the stacking frame 4 and the extension trays 6 are inclined at the end away from the stacking frame 4. The upper end of the tray frame 10 has a telescopic groove 11. The extension trays 6 are slidably connected inside the telescopic groove 11. Multiple support springs 12 located inside the telescopic groove 11 are provided on both sides of the lower end of the extension trays 6. The limiting stop bar 14 is located directly above the telescopic groove 11. A fixing bolt 15 is inserted into the transverse partition 5 and passes through the extension tray 6. The fixing bolt 15 can slide up and down inside the transverse partition 5 and can be threaded. Connected inside the fixed tray 3, during the adjustment of the storage space of the storage rack 2, since the partition 5 and the two tray frames 10 form a storage cavity for the extension tray 6 to extend and retract, and the extension tray 6 is elastically connected to the inside of the telescopic groove 11 by multiple support springs 12, when the retractable rack 4 is not extended outside the storage rack 2, the retractable rack 4 is attached to the outside of the storage rack 2, and the extension tray 6 is stored inside the storage cavity to reduce space occupation. It is also tightly attached to the lower end of the fixed tray 3 by multiple support springs 12 to limit the storage rack 2 and the telescopic component in the retracted state, ensuring the structural stability of the storage rack 2 in the retracted state.
[0024] Furthermore, when the display rack 4 is unfolded outside the storage rack 2, the tray rack 10 is pulled out from inside the tray slide groove 7, and the limiting slider 13 slides inside the limiting slide groove 9, which in turn pulls out the limiting stop bar 14 from inside the stop bar slide groove 8. At the same time, the extension tray 6 is pulled out from the lower end of the fixed tray 3, and the pulling out is limited by the limiting slide groove 9 and the limiting slider 13, so as to prevent the telescopic component from completely detaching from the storage rack 2.
[0025] Furthermore, when the extension tray 6 is completely pulled out from the lower end of the fixed tray 3, the extension tray 6 can pop out from inside the telescopic groove 11 under the action of multiple support springs 12, and fit against the lower end of the two limit stops 14 and the upper end face of the fixed tray 3, so that the fixed tray 3 inside the storage rack 2 can be combined with the extension tray 6 to form a new storage tray, thereby increasing the storage capacity of the storage rack 2. At the same time, the inclined surface of the extension tray 6 is aligned and fitted with the inclined surface of the fixed tray 3. At this time, the fixing bolt 15 is inserted into the transverse partition 5 and extends through the extension tray 6 to the inside of the fixed tray 3 for threaded connection, fixing the position of the fixed tray 3, the transverse partition 5 and the extension tray 6, so that the structure of the storage rack 2 in the unfolded state is firm and stable.
[0026] Furthermore, when retracting the extension tray 6, since the inclined surfaces between the extension tray 6 and the fixed tray 3 can slide against each other, pulling out the fixing bolt 15 and pushing the retracting frame 4 backward will cause the inclined surfaces between the extension tray 6 and the fixed tray 3 to slide against each other, allowing the extension tray 6 to slide back to the lower end of the fixed tray 3 for storage, making it more convenient to retract the telescopic component.
[0027] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structural transformations made using the contents of the present invention's specification and drawings under the inventive concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present invention.
