[0022] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0023] The utility model provides Figure 1-4The material management system shown includes a management rack, a management indicator light and a host unit, the host unit is electrically connected to the management indicator light, and the management indicator light is arranged on the management rack;

[0024] Specifically, the management framework includes:

[0025] A plurality of support poles 1, side baffles 101 are arranged between the horizontal and lateral opposite sides of the plurality of support poles 1, and a plurality of top plates 102 are arranged between the horizontal and longitudinal tops of the support poles 1;

[0026] A plurality of storage plates 2 are arranged in a vertical direction between the horizontal longitudinal opposite sides of the plurality of support poles 1 .

[0027] It should be noted that, by setting the side baffles 101, the supporting uprights 1 located on the same horizontal horizontal line are combined in series. The side baffles 101 not only strengthen the supporting strength of the entire management rack, but also provide enclosures for the sides of the entire management rack to protect the stored items.

[0028] Management indicators include:

[0029] Main control MCU chip: The main control MCU chip is used to control the opening and closing of the entire lamp body;

[0030] 485 communication chip, which is electrically connected to the main control MCU chip and is used for material address management;

[0031] It should be noted that by writing a pre-specified 8-bit address into the 485 communication chip, the 8-bit address includes A0-A7, where A0A1A2 represents the shelf address, A3A4 represents the layer address, and A5A6A7 represents the material location address. In this way, a unique code is bound to the management indicator light.

[0032] The 485 communication chip is an integrated circuit chip used for RS-485 communication protocol to realize data transmission and communication. In particular, it can communicate at multiple points. RS-485 supports multiple devices to communicate through the same signal line, where each device has an independent address. Data can be transmitted between different devices, which can be used as corresponding coding binding to achieve the management of multiple materials.

[0033] Specifically, a repeater is electrically connected between the host unit and the multiple 485 communication chips, and the repeater is used for relaying the transmission and reception of the multiple 485 communication chips.

[0034] It should be noted that the host unit uses the control backend of the USB to 485 communication chip to determine whether the chip has received the command by returning the command frame. Since the driving capacity of the general USB to 485 communication chip is limited, it is impossible to drive hundreds or thousands of 485 communication chips at the same time to meet the material level requirements of the entire warehouse. Therefore, a repeater is used to relay the transmission and reception of the 485 communication chip signal. The wiring and principle of the repeater are shown in Figure 4 .

[0035] Furthermore, the repeater forwards the 485 communication chip signal through the two UART ports of the main control MCU chip. UART1 is connected to one 485 communication chip input, and UART2 is connected to four parallel 485 communication chips output. At the same time, an external 12V power adapter is used to power the repeater separately. Thus, one repeater can control 60 to 80 management indicator lights.

[0036] The first LED light 3 and the second LED light 5, the first LED light 3 is arranged on the top of the management rack for indicating the shelf position, and the second LED light 5 is arranged on the front of the management rack for indicating the material category.

[0037] It should be noted that in the design of this solution, multiple management indicator lights are connected to network cables of corresponding lengths through RJ45 sockets, where the eight copper wires of the network cable are connected in parallel in pairs, representing line A, line B, the positive pole of the power supply, and the negative pole of the power supply, respectively. Figure 3 shown.

[0038] Furthermore, a wire groove 4 is disposed on the front of each of the plurality of storage plates 2 , and a plurality of second LED lamps 5 are horizontally and laterally interlaced in the wire groove 4 , and the first LED lamp 3 is disposed on the top of the placement top plate 102 .

[0039] Specifically, a plurality of partition strips 201 are disposed at the top of the storage plate 2 , and the plurality of partition strips 201 are used to separate a plurality of storage spaces at the top of the storage plate 2 .

[0040] It should be noted that the dividing strip 201 can be replaced by a baffle. The present solution adopts a sticky colored strip structure. By setting the dividing strip 201, the top space of the storage plate 2 is divided, so that multiple spaces correspond to the storage management of the same material and are associated with the second LED light 5 with the corresponding mark.

[0041] Specifically, a plurality of label cards 6 are provided on the front side of the wire duct 4 , and the plurality of label cards 6 correspond to the plurality of second LED lights 5 , and are used for marking material information.

[0042] It should be noted that the wire trough 4 is provided to make the warehouse neat and beautiful during installation. The wire trough 4 is the same color as the management frame and is installed, so that the circuit board of the management indicator light is placed in the wire trough 4, and the second LED lamp 5 is embedded in the wire trough 4 by punching a hole. A label card 6 is affixed next to the second LED lamp 5, and the label card 6 records the corresponding address and QR code for convenient scanning and material collection.

[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
