[0034] The specific implementation of a shuttle guide device of the utility model is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] See attached Figure 1 , 2 The shuttle guide devices 1 are arranged at the four corners of the shuttle 2, and guide the forward and backward movement of the shuttle 2 in the X direction and the forward and backward movement in the Y direction. The four guide devices 1 are arranged symmetrically in pairs, and the wheel edges of the guide wheels 5 of the four guide devices 1 protrude from the front, back, left, and right sides of the shuttle 2 or the outermost sides of the wheels of the shuttle 2.

[0036] The guide device 1 comprises a guide support 3 arranged on the side of the shuttle vehicle 2, a guide shaft 4 is vertically fixed on the guide support 3, and at least one guide wheel 5 and a light-emitting layer 6 are arranged on the guide shaft 4.

[0037] See attached Figure 6 The guide wheel 5 is in rolling connection with the guide shaft 4. The guide wheel 5 includes a guide damping ring 7 arranged on the outer ring, and a plurality of roller needles 8 are installed on the inner side. The guide wheel 5 is matched between two sleeves 9 on the guide shaft 4. The guide wheel 5 and the guide shaft 4 can also be connected by a bearing to realize the rotation of the guide wheel 5.

[0038] The light-emitting layer 6 is fixedly connected to the guide shaft 4, and the outer diameter of the guide wheel 5 is larger than the outer diameter of the light-emitting layer 6. Similarly, the light-emitting layer 6 and the guide wheel 5 are also separated by a shaft sleeve 9.

[0039] The wheel edge of each guide wheel 5 is located protruding from the front, rear, left, right and sides of the shuttle vehicle 2 or the outermost side of the wheel of the shuttle vehicle 2, so that the guide wheel 5 first contacts the logistics rack on the side of the shuttle vehicle 2 in the X direction and the Y direction, thereby correcting the movement of the shuttle vehicle 2 through the guide wheel 5.

[0040] The electric wires of the light-emitting layer 6 are connected to the control system in the shuttle vehicle 2. The control system controls the light-emitting layer 6 to emit light according to the state of movement of the vehicle, and can indicate different specific information contents by controlling various states of light emission.

[0041] See attached Figure 3 , 4 Specifically, each guide device 1 in the figure has four guide wheels 5 and three light-emitting layers 6, which are arranged on the guide shaft 4 at intervals through the sleeves 9 arranged on the guide shaft 4, with two guide wheels 5 at both ends, and the guide wheels 5 are fixed at both ends of the guide shaft 4 by retaining rings 14. The guide support 3 includes two side plates 10, and the side plates 10 are provided with mounting holes 11. The two ends of the guide shaft 4 are fixed in the mounting holes 11, and the guide support 3 is installed on the shuttle 2.

[0042] See attached Figure 5 The guide shaft 4 is a hollow shaft, and a plurality of through holes 12 are arranged on the guide shaft 4. The wires of the light-emitting layer 6 pass through one through hole 12 to the center hole 13 of the shaft, and then pass through another through hole 12. A lead hole is arranged between the guide bracket and the body of the shuttle 2, and the wires are connected to the control system in the shuttle 2 through the lead hole. A through hole 12 is arranged on the guide shaft 4 at each light-emitting layer 6 position. When threading, the lead wires of each light-emitting layer 6 pass through the nearest through hole 12 to the center hole 13 of the guide shaft 4, and finally the lead wires pass through the through hole 12 at the middle position together and are sent to the control system of the shuttle 2.

[0043] The three light-emitting layers 6 are all LED light rings, and the light sources of the three light-emitting layers 6 are red light, green light and blue light respectively. The control system controls the lighting and extinguishing of the LED light rings on the four different guide devices 1. At the same time, the three different color LED light rings on each guide device 1 can also be combined in color to achieve more signal information output.

[0044] The above are only preferred implementations of the present invention. It should be pointed out that ordinary technicians in this technical field can make several improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
