[0038] See attached Figure 1 to Figure 2As shown, the embodiment of the present application provides an automated cold storage device, including a cold storage cabinet 1, a loading and unloading mechanism 3, and a conveying mechanism 4. Among them, the cold storage cabinet 1 is stored in the cold storage warehouse, the cold storage cabinet 1 is used to store goods, the loading and unloading mechanism 3 is used to store goods in the cold storage cabinet 1 or receive goods in the cold storage cabinet 1, and the conveying mechanism 4 is used to transport goods between the cold storage cabinet 1 and the manual work area. The manual work area is set outside the cold storage warehouse, and workers load and unload goods in the manual work area. During specific work, the worker puts the goods into the conveying mechanism 4, the conveying mechanism 4 delivers the goods to the cold storage cabinet 1, and the loading and unloading mechanism 3 deposits the goods into the cold storage cabinet 1, and when the goods need to be taken out of the cold storage cabinet 1, the transfer mechanism transfers the goods from the cold storage cabinet 1 to the conveying mechanism 4, and the conveying mechanism 4 transports the refrigerated goods to the manual work area, and the workers complete the unloading. It can be seen that by setting up the transfer mechanism and the conveying mechanism 4, unattended storage and retrieval of goods between the cold storage cabinet 1 and the manual working area is achieved, which avoids the harm to the health of workers caused by temperature differences when they stay in the cold storage for a long time, and reduces manual operations, which is conducive to improving work efficiency while improving the safety of workers.
[0039] Specifically:
[0040] See also Figure 1 As shown, the cold storage cabinet 1 includes several layers, each layer is provided with several storage compartments 101. It should be noted that the cold storage cabinet 1 shown in the figure in this embodiment has only two layers, which is only used for example and does not limit the specific number of layers of the cold storage cabinet 1. The number of layers can be customized according to the height of the cold storage warehouse. Figure 2 As shown, each storage compartment 101 is provided with an ejection mechanism 2 for pushing out goods, wherein the ejection mechanism 2 comprises an ejection cylinder 201 and an ejection push plate 202, wherein the ejection cylinder 201 is fixed to the inner bottom surface of the storage compartment 101, and the ejection push plate 202 is fixedly connected to the ejection cylinder 201. It can be imagined that when goods are stored in the storage compartment 101, the ejection cylinder 201 is in a natural state, and when the goods need to be taken out, the ejection cylinder 201 extends and pushes the ejection top plate to eject the goods.
[0041] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the loading and unloading mechanism 3 includes a transfer rail 31 and a loading and unloading assembly 32. The loading and unloading assembly 32 moves along the transfer rail 31 and is used to store goods into the storage compartment 101 and receive goods pushed out by the ejection mechanism 2. Specifically, as Figure 1As shown in the figure, each layer of storage grid 101 is correspondingly provided with a loading and unloading mechanism 3. Each loading and unloading component 32 corresponds to a set of transfer guide rails 31 arranged parallel up and down. The transfer guide rails 31 are arranged along the length direction of the cold storage cabinet 1 and fixed to the front side of the cold storage cabinet 1. One end of the transfer guide rails 31 significantly extends to the outside of the cold storage cabinet 1 to form a transition area. The conveying mechanism 4 is docked with the transition area. In the non-working state, the loading and unloading component 32 stops at the transition area, and at the same time, the loading and unloading component 32 completes the transfer of goods between the conveying mechanism 4 and the cold storage cabinet 1 in the transition area.
[0042] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the loading and unloading component 32 includes a picking trolley 320, a driving unit 321, an elastic clamping arm unit 322, and a jacking unit 323. Among them, the picking trolley 320 includes a "C"-shaped frame body. The side of the frame body facing the storage grid 101 is designed as an open picking port to facilitate the entry and exit of goods from the picking trolley 320. The upper and lower outer sides of the frame body are provided with rollers 3201. The transfer guide rails 31 are provided with guide rail grooves 310 along the length direction. The frame body is installed in the guide rail grooves 310 through the rollers 3201 and thus moves along the transfer guide rails 31. The driving unit 321 includes a smooth rod 3210, a lead screw 3211, and a driving motor 3212. The smooth rod 3210 and the lead screw 3211 are arranged parallel along the length direction of the cold storage cabinet 1 and are rotatably connected to the bracket for supporting the transfer guide rails 31. A connecting part is integrally formed on the back of the frame body of the vehicle. The connecting part is provided with parallel threaded holes and smooth through holes. The lead screw 3211 is threadedly connected to the threaded holes, and the smooth rod 3210 is slidably connected to the smooth through holes, so that the frame body is installed on the smooth rod 3210 and the lead screw 3211. The driving motor 3212 is传动连接于丝杆3211的一端,从而通过驱动电机3212的正反转动使得取货小车320能够沿着转运导轨31来回移动,到达每一个置物格101进行装取货物。
[0043] As described above, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 It should be noted that there is an unclear expression "传动连接于丝杆3211的一端" in the original text. It might need to be further clarified to ensure a more accurate translation. The above translation is based on the existing text as much as possible.As shown, the elastic clamp arm unit 322 includes a side arm 3220 and a clamp arm 3223. The side arm 3220 is fixedly arranged on both sides of the pickup cart 320. A guide column 3221 is vertically arranged on the inner side of the side arm 3220. The clamp arm 3223 is movably mounted on the guide column 3221. A spring 3222 is also mounted on the guide column 3221 between the clamp arm 3223 and the side wall. Both ends of the spring 3222 are fixedly connected to the side wall and the clamp arm 3223 respectively. At the same time, the clamp arm 3223 is provided with a wedge-shaped guiding surface on the side of the pickup port. It can be imagined that when the picking cart 320 moves to the front of the corresponding storage compartment 101 to pick up the goods, the ejection cylinder 201 pushes the goods out of the storage compartment 101, and the goods gradually enter between the clamping arms 3223 under the guidance of the wedge-shaped guide surface. The clamping arms 3223 are gradually stretched open, and the spring 3222 reacts on the clamping arms 3223 to clamp the goods in the picking cart 320.
[0044] Others, such as Figure 4 As shown, the push-in unit 323 includes a push-in cylinder 3230 and a push-in push plate 3231. The push-in cylinder 3230 is fixed to the inner side of the pickup trolley 320 and extends toward the pickup port. The push-in push plate 3231 is fixedly connected to the push-in cylinder 3230. It can be imagined that when storing goods in the storage compartment 101, the pickup trolley 320 moves to the front of the storage compartment 101, and the push-in cylinder 3230 extends to drive the push-in push plate to push the goods from the pickup trolley 320 into the storage compartment 101 to complete the refrigeration.
[0045] In this embodiment, the conveying mechanism 4 is a traditional roller conveying mechanism 4 or a belt conveying mechanism 4, which will not be described in detail here. Of course, in a preferred embodiment, in order to prevent the goods from falling, baffles can be optionally set on both sides of the conveying frame of the conveying mechanism 4 along the length direction.
[0046] From the above content, it can be seen that the working principle of an automated cold storage device provided in the embodiment of the present application is:
[0047] When the goods are refrigerated, the worker puts the goods into the conveying mechanism 4 in the manual work area, and the conveying mechanism 4 transports the goods to the transition area. The picking cart 320 waits in the transition area. The goods use inertia to enter between the clamping arms 3223, and the clamping arms 3223 clamp the goods. By controlling the drive motor 3212, the picking cart 320 accurately reaches the storage compartment 101 one by one, stops after reaching the front of the storage compartment 101, and uses the pushing cylinder 3230 to push the goods into the storage compartment 101, and returns to the transition area to wait for the next goods until all the storage compartments 101 are full.
[0048] When it is necessary to take out the refrigerated goods, the driving motor 3212 is controlled to make the pickup trolley 320 accurately reach the storage compartment 101, and the goods are pushed out by the ejection cylinder 201. The goods enter between the clamping arms 3223 and are clamped by the clamping arms 3223. After the goods are completely out of the storage compartment 101, the pickup trolley 320 moves to the transition area and pushes the goods out of the conveying mechanism 4 by nailing into the cylinder (at this time, the power assembly of the conveying mechanism 4 is reversed), and the conveying mechanism 4 transports the goods to the manual working area, and the workers complete the unloading.
[0049] To sum up, the embodiment of the present application provides an automated cold storage device, which realizes unattended storage and retrieval of goods between the cold storage cabinet and the manual work area by setting up a transfer mechanism and a conveying mechanism, thereby avoiding the harm to the health of workers caused by temperature differences when they stay in the cold storage for a long time, and reducing manual operations, which is conducive to improving work efficiency while improving the safety of workers.
[0050] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
