Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of positioning cabinet technology, specifically to an intelligent multi-station flexible line measuring tool positioning cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] To manage the large number and diverse types of flexible line measuring tools, intelligent tool cabinets with preliminary positioning functions have been designed. The core idea of ​​these cabinets is to number each storage drawer and connect it to a computer control system. When an operator needs a tool, they can enter its model number or code into the computer, and the system will attempt to locate the corresponding drawer.

[0003] In terms of operation, there are two main technical approaches. The first is the light-indicator type: an indicator light is installed on the panel of each drawer. After receiving a command, the control system will only light up the indicator light of the target drawer. Once the light is on, the staff needs to walk over and manually open the drawer to search for and retrieve the item. This method has a very low level of automation; it only solves the problem of finding the drawer, but not the action of retrieving it.

[0004] The second type is the single-drawer drive type: This solution attempts to achieve automatic opening and closing. It does this by equipping each drawer in the cabinet with a small electric push rod and corresponding control circuit. This push rod is fixedly installed on the cabinet frame and is only connected to the corresponding drawer.

[0005] When the computer issues a command, it activates the lever behind the drawer to push it out. Although this method achieves automatic pop-out, it can only push the drawer out. Since each drawer is in a different position, and there are many drawers, it is not possible to take out and put in flexible line measuring tools in the same position.

[0006] Therefore, we propose an intelligent multi-station flexible line gauge positioning cabinet to solve the problems mentioned above. Summary of the Invention

[0007] This invention provides an intelligent multi-station flexible line gauge positioning cabinet, which can solve the problem in the prior art where each drawer has a different position, making it impossible to take out and put in flexible line gauges in a unified position when there are many drawers.

[0008] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A smart multi-station flexible line measuring tool positioning cabinet includes a cabinet body with an opening at the front end. Multiple drawers are arranged equidistantly vertically within the cabinet body and slidably mounted therein. The cabinet body also includes multiple sets of locking components for closing the drawers. Furthermore, a pushing component for automatically pushing and pulling the drawers is located inside the cabinet body. A lifting component for raising and lowering the drawers is located on the inner side of the sliding frame. The pushing and lifting components work together to retrieve and place any drawer within the cabinet body. The cabinet also includes a control host for circuit control.

[0009] Preferably, the pushing component includes sliding guide rails symmetrically arranged on both sides of the inner wall of the cabinet. The sliding guide rails have guide grooves inside. A threaded rod is rotatably connected inside the guide groove of one side of the sliding guide rail, and a servo motor for driving the threaded rod to rotate is fixedly installed at the end of the guide groove. A first electromagnetic chuck is slidably connected between the two sliding guide rails. One end of the first electromagnetic chuck is threadedly connected to the threaded rod, and the end of the first electromagnetic chuck away from the threaded rod is slidably connected to the guide groove on the other side.

[0010] Preferably, the drawer is provided with guide support plates on both sides, the guide support plates slide in the guide groove, the drawer is made of magnetic material, and the first electromagnetic suction plate is attracted to the magnetic suction plate after being energized, which is used to push the drawer to slide.

[0011] Preferably, the bottom of the sliding frame is provided with guide wheels for sliding support, and first electric telescopic rods are installed on both sides of the sliding frame. The telescopic end of the first electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the end of the cabinet away from the opening. The first electric telescopic rod pushes the sliding frame to slide relative to the cabinet. The bottom of the cabinet is equipped with casters, and the bottom surfaces of the casters and guide wheels are on the same plane.

[0012] Preferably, the lifting assembly includes two sets of linear drive rails, longitudinal grooves are provided on the inner walls of both sides of the sliding frame, the linear drive rails are installed inside the longitudinal grooves, and a sliding seat is installed on the linear drive rails; a miniature electric push rod is installed on the sliding seat, and a second magnetic suction plate is fixedly installed on one end of the miniature electric push rod facing the inner side of the sliding frame.

[0013] Preferably, the inner wall of the sliding frame is provided with a shrinkage groove perpendicular to the longitudinal sliding groove direction, and the second magnetic suction plate is adapted to the internal space of the shrinkage groove.

[0014] Preferably, the locking assembly includes a lock base, a lock groove is provided at one end of the lock base near the outside of the drawer, and a miniature electric telescopic rod is installed on one side of the lock groove.

[0015] Preferably, a cover is provided at one end of the outer side of the drawer, and a latch adapted to the lock groove is provided on the inner side of the cover. The inner rod of the miniature electric telescopic rod extends out and passes through the latch to lock it.

[0016] Preferably, the control host is electrically connected to the servo motor, the first electric telescopic rod, the linear drive rail, the miniature electric push rod, the first electromagnetic chuck, the second magnetic chuck, and each miniature electric telescopic rod.

[0017] An automatic retrieval and placement method for an intelligent multi-station flexible line measuring tool positioning cabinet, the method comprising the following steps: First, the steps for accessing the target drawer are as follows: S1, the control host controls the miniature electric telescopic rod corresponding to the target drawer to retract, thereby releasing the lock; S2. Control the linear drive rail to move, causing the sliding seat and the second magnetic plate to move to the same height as the target drawer. Then control the micro electric push rod to extend, causing the second magnetic plate to move towards the inside of the cabinet. S3. Control the first electric telescopic rod to extend, push the sliding frame to move into the cabinet until the second magnetic plate contacts the side of the target drawer and is attracted by electricity; S4. Control the linear drive rail to retract, and use the second magnetic plate to pull the target drawer out from its storage position inside the cabinet so that it is fully accommodated in the internal space of the sliding rack. S5. Control the servo motor to drive the first electromagnetic suction plate to move along the sliding guide rail to the position corresponding to the target drawer in the sliding frame and then apply electricity to attract it. S6. Control the first electric telescopic rod to retract, and pull the sliding frame as a whole to move to the outside of the cabinet opening, so that the target drawer and its guide support plate are completely separated from the guide groove of the sliding guide rail; S7. Control the linear drive rail to run, causing the sliding bracket carrying the target drawer to descend to the preset pick-up / placement height at the bottom of the sliding bracket's travel.

[0018] It also includes reset or storage steps: S8. After the flexible line gauge in the target drawer is taken out or replaced, control the linear drive rail to raise the sliding frame to the height corresponding to the original storage layer. S9. Control the first electric telescopic rod to extend, push the sliding frame and the target drawer to move into the cabinet until the guide support plates on both sides of the target drawer are re-aligned with the guide groove of the sliding guide rail and partially inserted. S10. Control the servo motor to run in reverse, drive the first electromagnetic suction plate to move the target drawer along the guide groove into the cabinet until it is completely reset to the storage position inside the cabinet. S11. Control the miniature electric push rod to retract, so that the second magnetic suction plate disengages from the side of the drawer and retracts into the retraction groove, and then control the first electromagnetic suction plate to de-energize and release. S12. Control the extension of the miniature electric telescopic rod corresponding to the target drawer, so that its inner rod passes through the latch and locks the drawer.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are: I. In this invention, after receiving the access command, the control host first unlocks the drawer; then, the lifting assembly raises the second magnetic plate to the drawer height and extends it, while the pushing assembly is activated, pushing the drawer out of the cabinet into the sliding frame where it is attracted and fixed by the second magnetic plate; subsequently, the first electric telescopic rod pushes the entire sliding frame outward, completely detaching the drawer from the cabinet; finally, the lifting assembly lowers the sliding frame carrying the drawer to the same low position at its bottom to unlock the drawer; then, the lifting assembly raises the second magnetic plate to the drawer height and extends it, while the pushing assembly is activated, pushing the drawer out of the cabinet into the sliding frame. The drawer is held in place by a second magnetic plate; then, the first electric telescopic rod pushes the entire sliding frame outward, causing the drawer to detach completely from the cabinet; finally, the lifting assembly lowers the sliding frame carrying the drawer to a uniform low position at its bottom. This device can automatically transfer and lower target drawers of any height to a uniform low position at the bottom of the sliding frame, ensuring that staff can always complete the retrieval and placement of all flexible line measuring tools at the same comfortable and convenient height, without having to bend over or raise their hands to adapt to different floor heights. This truly realizes the "goods-to-person" operation concept, greatly improving operational efficiency, user experience, and the level of automation in warehouse management.

[0020] II. In another aspect of the present invention, during operation, the U-shaped frame is first raised and lowered to the outside of the corresponding drawer, the second electric telescopic rod extends, so that the first electromagnetic suction plate is magnetically fixed to the drawer's outer cover, the second electric telescopic rod retracts, and the drawer is pulled out. Before the drawer is disengaged from the guide groove, the miniature electric push rods on both sides of the sliding frame push the second magnetic suction plate to magnetically fix to the drawer side, preventing the drawer from falling off. The first electric telescopic rod pushes the sliding bracket outward, causing the drawer to disengage from the guide groove and move to the outside of the cabinet. The lifting assembly then raises and lowers the drawer, facilitating the access to flexible cables inside drawers of different heights. Through the movable sliding bracket and lifting assembly, in conjunction with the external linkage mechanism, automated access to all drawers within the cabinet is achieved. This design abandons the complex approach of equipping each drawer with an independent drive mechanism in existing technologies. Only a few core actuators are needed to serve all drawers, significantly simplifying the overall mechanical structure and greatly reducing manufacturing costs, maintenance complexity, and failure rate.

[0023] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below, but it should be understood that the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments.

[0024] Example 1: Please see Figure 1-7 The present invention provides a technical solution: A smart multi-station flexible line measuring tool positioning cabinet includes a cabinet body 1 with an opening at the front end. Multiple drawers 2 are arranged inside the cabinet body 1, equidistantly distributed vertically and slidably disposed within the cabinet body 1. Multiple sets of locking components 6 for closing the drawers 2 are provided inside the cabinet body 1. A pushing component 3 for automatically pushing and pulling the drawers 2 is also provided inside the cabinet body 1. A lifting component 5 for raising and lowering the drawers 2 is provided on the inner side of a sliding frame 4. The pushing component 3 and the lifting component 5 cooperate to retrieve and place any drawer 2 inside the cabinet body 1. The cabinet body also includes a control host for circuit control. In the above scheme, when tools need to be retrieved, the control unit first controls the lifting component 5 to move to the height of the target drawer 2, the locking component 6 unlocks, and the pushing component 3 pushes the drawer 2 from the cabinet 1 into the sliding frame 4. The second magnetic plate 54 locks both sides of the drawer 2, causing the sliding frame 4 to slide outwards, and the drawer 2 disengages from the cabinet 1. Subsequently, the lifting component 5 inside the sliding frame 4 lowers the drawer 2, which carries the flexible wire measuring tool, to the same height as its bottom. In this way, regardless of where the original drawer 2 is located inside the cabinet, the tools can ultimately be retrieved and placed in a fixed, low position that is easy for personnel to operate, realizing convenient operation from goods to people. This solution solves the problem in the prior art where drawers 2 at different heights pop out at different positions, requiring personnel to operate them at different heights, by using a sliding frame 4 that can slide back and forth and its built-in lifting component 5.

[0025] In some specific embodiments, the pushing component 3 includes sliding guide rails 31 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the inner wall of the cabinet 1. The sliding guide rails 31 have guide grooves 32 inside. A threaded rod 34 is rotatably connected inside the guide groove 32 of one side of the sliding guide rail 31, and a servo motor 35 for driving the threaded rod 34 to rotate is fixedly installed at the end of the guide groove 32. A first electromagnetic suction plate 36 is slidably connected between the two sliding guide rails 31. One end of the first electromagnetic suction plate 36 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 34, and the end of the first electromagnetic suction plate 36 away from the threaded rod 34 is slidably connected to the guide groove 32 on the other side. The servo motor 35 drives the threaded rod 34 to rotate, and the rotation of the threaded rod 34 drives the first electromagnetic suction plate 36 to slide along the guide groove 32. The first electromagnetic suction plate 36 can push the drawer 2 outward along the guide groove 32, so that it enters the sliding frame 4. The first electromagnetic suction plate 36 magnetically engages with the inside of the drawer 2. When the drawer 2 needs to be reset, the first electromagnetic suction plate 36 engages with the inside of the drawer 2 and slides towards one end of the sliding guide rail 31, so that the drawer 2 retracts and resets.

[0026] In some specific embodiments, guide support plates 33 are provided on both sides of the drawer 2. The guide support plates 33 slide in the guide groove 32 to support the drawer 2 inside the cabinet 1 and to slide stably. The drawer 2 is made of magnetic material. After the first electromagnetic suction plate 36 is energized, it is attracted to the magnetic suction plate to push the drawer 2 to slide.

[0027] In some specific embodiments, the bottom of the sliding frame 4 is provided with guide wheels 41 for sliding support, and the sides of the sliding frame 4 are equipped with first electric telescopic rods 42. The telescopic end of the first electric telescopic rod 42 is fixedly connected to the end of the cabinet 1 away from the opening. The first electric telescopic rod 42 pushes the sliding frame 4 to slide relative to the cabinet 1. The bottom of the cabinet 1 is equipped with omnidirectional casters 11, and the bottom surfaces of the omnidirectional casters 11 and the guide wheels 41 are on the same plane. Through the guide wheels 41 and the first electric telescopic rods 42, the sliding frame 4 can be pushed to slide stably relative to the cabinet 1.

[0028] In some specific embodiments, the lifting assembly 5 includes two sets of linear drive rails 51. Longitudinal grooves are provided on the inner walls of both sides of the sliding frame 4. The linear drive rails 51 are installed inside the longitudinal grooves, and a sliding seat 52 is mounted on the linear drive rails 51. A miniature electric push rod 53 is mounted on the sliding seat 52. A second magnetic suction plate 54 is fixedly mounted on one end of the miniature electric push rod 53 facing the inner side of the sliding frame 4. The linear drive rails 51 can precisely control the sliding seat 52 to move up and down along the longitudinal grooves inside the sliding frame 4. The miniature electric push rod 53 mounted on the sliding seat 52 can extend and retract horizontally, pushing the second magnetic suction plate 54 to extend or retract. Through the cooperation of the above structures, the assembly can accurately position and push the second magnetic suction plate 54 to the side of the target drawer 2. After being attracted by electricity, the drawer 2 can be pulled into the sliding frame 4 or raised and lowered.

[0029] In some specific embodiments, a retraction groove perpendicular to the longitudinal slide groove is formed on the inner wall of the sliding frame 4. The second magnetic suction plate 54 is adapted to the internal space of the retraction groove. When the micro electric push rod 53 retracts, the second magnetic suction plate 54 will retract into the retraction groove on the inner wall of the sliding frame 4. This makes the surface of the second magnetic suction plate 54 flush with the inner wall surface of the sliding frame 4, preventing it from protruding when not in operation and hindering the movement or lifting operation of the drawer 2 within the sliding frame 4, thus ensuring the space and smoothness of the mechanism's operation.

[0030] Example 2: Please see Figure 1-7 Furthermore, in conjunction with Embodiment 1, the locking assembly 6 includes a lock base 61. A lock groove 62 is formed at one end of the lock base 61 near the outer side of the drawer 2. A miniature electric telescopic rod 63 is installed on one side of the lock groove 62. When the drawer 2 is fully closed, its outer cover 21 is embedded in the lock groove 62 of the lock base 61. Upon receiving a locking command from the control host, the miniature electric telescopic rod 63 extends its inner rod. The extended inner rod passes directly through the latch 22 inside the cover 21, thereby firmly locking the drawer 2 in the closed position and preventing it from being pulled open due to vibration or accident.

[0031] In some specific embodiments, a cover 21 is provided at one end of the outer side of the drawer 2, and a latch 22 adapted to the locking groove 62 is provided on the inner side of the cover 21. The inner rod of the miniature electric telescopic rod 63 extends out and passes through the latch 22 to lock it. When the drawer 2 is closed, the latch 22 also enters the locking groove 62. At this time, the inner rod of the miniature electric telescopic rod 63 extends out and passes through the hole on the latch 22, locking like a pin. When unlocking, the inner rod of the telescopic rod retracts, the latch 22 is released, and the drawer 2 can be moved.

[0032] In some specific embodiments, the control host is electrically connected to the servo motor 35, the first electric telescopic rod 42, the linear drive rail 51, the miniature electric push rod 53, the first electromagnetic chuck 36, the second magnetic chuck 54, and each miniature electric telescopic rod 63. The control host acts as the command center of the entire system, establishing electrical connections with the servo motor 35, the first electric telescopic rod 42, the linear drive rail 51, the miniature electric push rod 53, the first electromagnetic chuck 36, the second magnetic chuck 54, and all the miniature electric telescopic rods 63 via wires. This allows the control host to send precise start, stop, direction, and force commands to each actuator and receive their feedback signals, thereby coordinating a series of complex actions such as pushing, lifting, sliding, and locking to be completed automatically in sequence.

[0033] An automatic retrieval and placement method for an intelligent multi-station flexible line measuring tool positioning cabinet, the method comprising the following steps: First, the steps for accessing the target drawer 2 are as follows: S1, the control host controls the miniature electric telescopic rod 63 corresponding to the target drawer 2 to retract, thereby releasing the lock 22; S2. Control the linear drive rail 51 to run, drive the sliding seat 52 and the second magnetic plate 54 to move to the same height position as the target drawer 2, and then control the micro electric push rod 53 to extend, so that the second magnetic plate 54 moves towards the inside of the cabinet 1. S3. Control the first electric telescopic rod 42 to extend, push the sliding frame 4 to move into the cabinet 1 until the second magnetic plate 54 contacts the side of the target drawer 2 and is attracted by electricity; S4. Control the linear drive rail 51 to retract, and use the second magnetic suction plate 54 to pull the target drawer 2 out from its storage position inside the cabinet 1, so that it is completely accommodated in the internal space of the sliding rack 4. S5. Control the servo motor 35 to run, drive the first electromagnetic suction plate 36 to move along the sliding guide rail 31 to the position corresponding to the target drawer 2 in the sliding frame 4 and then apply electricity to attract it. S6. Control the first electric telescopic rod 42 to retract, and pull the sliding frame 4 as a whole to move to the outside of the cabinet 1 opening, so that the target drawer 2 and its guide support plate 33 are completely separated from the guide groove 32 of the sliding guide rail 31. S7. Control the linear drive rail 51 to run, driving the sliding frame 4 carrying the target drawer 2 to descend to the preset pick-up / placement height at the bottom of the sliding frame 4's stroke.

[0034] It also includes reset or storage steps: S8. After the flexible line gauge in the target drawer 2 is taken out or replaced, control the linear drive rail 51 to lift the sliding frame 4 to the height corresponding to the original storage layer. S9. Control the first electric telescopic rod 42 to extend, push the sliding frame 4 and the target drawer 2 to move into the cabinet 1 until the guide support plates 33 on both sides of the target drawer 2 are re-aligned with the guide grooves 32 of the sliding guide rail 31 and partially inserted. S10. Control the servo motor 35 to run in reverse, drive the first electromagnetic suction plate 36 to move the target drawer 2 along the guide groove 32 into the cabinet 1 until it is completely reset to the storage position inside the cabinet. S11. Control the miniature electric push rod 53 to retract, so that the second magnetic suction plate 54 disengages from the side of the drawer 2 and retracts into the retraction groove, and then control the first electromagnetic suction plate 36 to de-energize and release. S12. Control the extension of the miniature electric telescopic rod 63 corresponding to the target drawer 2, so that its inner rod passes through the latch 22 and locks the drawer 2.

[0035] Example 3: Please see Figure 8 Furthermore, in conjunction with Embodiment 1, it is further obtained that the pushing component 3 is canceled and replaced with an outer linkage component. The outer linkage component includes a U-shaped frame 71 with its opening facing the drawer 2. The two sides of the U-shaped frame 71 are fixedly connected to the sliding seats 52. The sliding seats 52 on both sides inside the sliding frame 4 drive the U-shaped frame 71 to rise and fall. A second electric telescopic rod 72 is fixedly installed in the middle of the U-shaped frame 71. A first electromagnetic suction plate 36 is installed at one end of the second electric telescopic rod 72 on the inner side of the U-shaped frame 71. During operation, the U-shaped frame 71 is first raised and lowered to the outside of the corresponding drawer 2. The second electric telescopic rod 72 extends, so that the first electromagnetic suction plate 36 is magnetically fixed to the outer cover 21 of the drawer 2. The second electric telescopic rod 72 retracts, pulling out the drawer 2. Before the drawer 2 is disengaged from the guide groove 32, the miniature electric push rods 53 on both sides of the sliding frame 4 push the second magnetic suction plate 54 to magnetically fix it to the side of the drawer 2 to prevent the drawer 2 from falling. The first electric telescopic rod 42 pushes the sliding frame 4 outward, causing the drawer 2 to disengage from the guide groove 32 and move to the outside of the cabinet 1. The lifting component 5 can lift the drawer 2, making it convenient to take out and put in the flexible wires inside the drawers 2 of different heights. Moreover, this solution solves the problem that a cabinet with dozens or even hundreds of drawers 2 needs to be equipped with dozens to hundreds of completely independent motors, push rods, brackets and wiring. It avoids the abnormally complex and crowded internal structure of the entire cabinet 1 caused by the traditional structure, and reduces manufacturing costs.

[0036] The working principle of this intelligent multi-station flexible line gauge positioning cabinet is as follows: When the control host receives the storage and retrieval command, it first controls the miniature electric telescopic rod 63 corresponding to the target drawer 2 to retract, thereby releasing the lock on the drawer 2; then, the lifting component 5 drives the second magnetic suction plate 54 to rise to the height of the drawer 2 and extend it, while the pushing component 3 (or the outer linkage component in embodiment three) is activated, pushing the drawer 2 out of the cabinet into the sliding frame 4 and being attracted and fixed by the second magnetic suction plate 54; subsequently, the first electric telescopic rod 42 pushes the entire sliding frame 4 to slide outward, so that the drawer 2 is completely separated from the cabinet body 1; finally, the lifting component 5 lowers the sliding frame 4 carrying the drawer 2 to the same low position at its bottom. Thus, regardless of where the original drawer 2 is located, the flexible line gauge can be retrieved and placed at a fixed and easily operable height, realizing automated storage and retrieval of "goods to person", and fundamentally solving the problem of high cost and complex structure caused by equipping each drawer 2 with a separate drive mechanism.

[0037] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely a few specific examples of the present invention.
