[0052] Please refer to the attached Figure 1 , a logistics box, comprising: a bottom surface 1, a support leg 2 is arranged below the bottom surface 1, see Figure 2 A lifting portion 3 is provided below the bottom surface 1, and a limiting member 4 is provided above the bottom surface 1. Figure 3 The bottom surface 1 is also provided with a through hole 100, which passes through the bottom surface 1 from top to bottom. A movable member 5 is provided on the through hole 100, and the upper part of the movable member 5 is connected to the limit member 4, and the lower part of the movable member 5 is connected to the lifting part 3. The height of the support leg 2 is higher than the vertical movable distance of the movable member 5, so that when the limit member 4 contacts the bottom surface 1, the height of the lifting part 3 is higher than the bottom of the support leg 2. The movable member 5 is provided through the through hole 100 to connect the limit member 4 and the lifting part 3. Please refer to Figure 2 When the logistics box is in normal use, the movable part 5, the limiting part 4 and the lifting part 3 are all limited by their own weight downward, and the limiting part 4 is in contact with the bottom surface 1. At this time, the height of the lifting part 3 is higher than the bottom of the support leg 2, and the logistics box can still be placed or stored normally. Different from the prior art, the above technical solution can reduce the wear of the logistics box and increase the service life of the logistics box by setting the lifting part 3 below the bottom surface 1 and making the lifting part 3 contact with the supporting mechanism. In actual application examples, the supporting mechanism can be a forklift, a manipulator, a gripper, etc. Please refer to Figure 4 When the supporting mechanism lifts up the lifting part 3, the movable part 5 and the limiting part 4 move upward synchronously until the lifting part 3 is against the bottom surface 1 of the logistics box.
[0053] In an embodiment of the present application, the movable parts 5 may be provided with one, or at least two, such as four.
[0054] In one embodiment of the present application, the supporting portion 3 may be in the shape of a rectangular plate or an elliptical plate.
[0055] See also Figure 5 In one embodiment of the present application, four movable members 5 are provided, and the supporting portion 3 is in the shape of an elliptical plate.
[0056] See also Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present application, a sealing member 6 is provided between the through hole 100 and the movable member 5. The sealing member 6 may be made of rubber, plastic, metal, etc. First, it can provide friction between the through hole 100 and the movable member 5, so that when the lifting portion 3 of the logistics box is not supported, the movable member 5 can slowly descend without causing the limiting member 4 to hit the bottom surface 1 of the logistics box. On the other hand, the sealing member 6 can provide sealing properties to prevent splashing water, mosquitoes and other debris from entering the interior of the logistics box.
[0057] In one embodiment of the present application, the logistics box further includes a conductive portion 7, which is disposed on the movable member 5 (see Figure 6 ) or stopper 4 (see Figure 7 ), a contact switch 800 is also provided above the bottom surface 1, and the contact switch 800 enables the response circuit after contacting the conductive part 7, see Figure 8 When the supporting mechanism lifts up the lifting part 3, the movable part 5 and the limit part 4 move up synchronously until the lifting part 3 is against the bottom surface 1 of the logistics box, and the contact switch 800 contacts the conductive part 7. For example, a partition can be arranged above the bottom surface 1, and a contact switch 800 is arranged on the top of the partition. Or a bracket can be arranged above the bottom surface 1, and a contact switch 800 is arranged on the top of the bracket, etc. The response circuit is a circuit including electrical appliances, and when the contact switch 800 is contacted, the electrical appliances can respond. By setting the contact switch 800 and the response circuit, the logistics box can activate the electrical appliances according to whether the lifting part 3 is lifted, thereby obtaining two response states of whether it is lifted or not.
[0058] In one embodiment of the present application, the response circuit is an RFID circuit. RFID (Radio Frequency Identification, RFID) is wireless radio frequency identification technology, which is a type of automatic identification technology. Generally, the RFID circuit includes a transceiver antenna, an induction coil, etc., which is low in cost, simple in structure and low in failure rate. In normal conditions, such as when the logistics box is stored, the contact switch 800 is not in contact, and the RFID loop is open and will not be identified, which can save energy for the entire system. When the lifting part 3 of the logistics box is dragged by the lifting mechanism, it means that the logistics box is moving within the factory. If RFID is enabled, the reader in the preset area within the factory can read the ID information of the logistics box. Combined with the existing factory management system, it can be known where the logistics box should be transferred, etc. It is convenient for the identity identification of the logistics box during transfer and the transfer and distribution within the factory.
[0059] In one embodiment of the present application, the response circuit includes a signal receiver, a power supply and an optical acoustic response module. The optical acoustic response module is an electrical appliance that can emit optical signals or acoustic signals. In normal conditions, such as when the logistics box is stored, the contact switch 800 is not in contact, and the optical acoustic response module will not work. When the lifting portion 3 of the logistics box is dragged by the lifting mechanism, it means that the logistics box is moving within the factory, and the logistics box can identify its own movement state through optical and acoustic elements. Optical elements can include lights of preset colors, acoustic elements can be preset audio or ultrasonic signals, and so on.
[0060] In one embodiment of the present application, the response circuit includes a signal transceiver, a power supply, a digital-to-electric conversion module and a storage module. The digital-to-electric conversion module and the storage module can adopt existing commercially available products. In normal state, such as when the logistics box is stored, the contact switch 800 is not in contact, and the response circuit is open and will not be recognized, which can save energy for the entire system. When the lifting part 3 of the logistics box is dragged by the lifting mechanism, it means that the logistics box is moving within the factory area, and the response circuit is enabled. Then, the signal transmitter in certain areas of the factory area can send a signal to the response circuit, and the content of the storage module in the response circuit can be rewritten in combination with the prior art. The signal receivers in other areas can read the content stored in the storage module based on similar principles. The factory management system can know the information stored in the logistics box, such as the storage environment, storage ID, contents, etc. Through the above settings, the logistics box can interact with the outside world when moving within the factory area. Meet the setting needs of the intelligent factory area.
[0061] In one embodiment of the present application, please refer to Figure 7-Figure 8 , further comprising: an electronic cabin 8, wherein the electronic cabin 8 is disposed above the bottom surface 1, and the electronic cabin 8 contains the contact switch 800 and the response circuit. The electronic cabin 8 may be a partition designed parallel to the bottom plate. In some other embodiments, the electronic cabin 8 may be a space on the bottom plate with a "door"-shaped cross-section. In some embodiments, a contact switch 800 may also be disposed on the top plate of the electronic cabin 8, and components such as batteries and storage modules may also be contained therein to avoid collision. By designing the electronic cabin 8, the safety of internal electronic products can be improved.
[0062] In some other embodiments, the logistics box is further provided with a side wall 9, see Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The logistics box can generally be set in a rectangular shape, with four side walls 9 facing each other, and fork holes 10 are correspondingly set on the opposite side walls 9. Two fork holes 10 are set on each side wall 9. For example, when a forklift simply moves the logistics box and does not need the contact switch 800 to respond, the supporting mechanism such as the fork claw of the forklift can directly pass through the fork hole 10 to grab the logistics box. Fig.11The upper edge of the fork hole 10 is also hingedly provided with a baffle 11, such as the baffle 11 is arranged at the fork hole 10 through a hinge 12. The baffle 11 can cover the fork hole 10 when the fork claw does not grab through the fork hole 10, thereby ensuring the closedness of the logistics box.
[0063] See also Figure 2 As in another embodiment of the present application, a fork clamp 300 is further provided below the lifting portion 3. The fork clamp 300 can facilitate the positioning of the fork, for example, the operator of the forklift can adjust the spacing of the fork according to the position of the fork clamp 300, so as to better carry the logistics box.
[0064] It should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described in this article, this does not limit the scope of patent protection of the utility model. Therefore, based on the innovative concept of the utility model, changes and modifications to the embodiments described in this article, or equivalent structural or equivalent process changes made using the contents of the utility model specification and drawings, directly or indirectly applying the above technical solutions to other related technical fields are all included in the scope of protection of the utility model patent.
