DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The preferred embodiments of the present application are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0026] The meaning of "inside" and "outside" mentioned in this application refers to the direction from its supporting beams or supporting columns pointing to the center of the small transport equipment carried inside the track, relative to the three-dimensional shelf itself, which is inside, and vice versa; rather than a specific limitation on the device mechanism of this application.

[0027] The term “connection” as used in this application may mean a direct connection between components or an indirect connection between components via other components.

[0028] The meaning of "up" and "down" mentioned in this application refers to that when a user uses a three-dimensional shelf, the direction from the ground to the top of the power material transfer box stored on the three-dimensional shelf is up, and the opposite direction is down, rather than a specific limitation on the device mechanism of this application.

[0029] refer to Figure 1 As shown, the power material supervision system provided by the present application includes:

[0030] Conveyor line 1, which extends from the receiving and sending port of the warehouse to the interior of the warehouse, is used to receive or output power materials and transfer the goods to the interior of the warehouse;

[0031] The three-dimensional shelves 2 are arranged in the warehouse along the conveyor line 1, and are generally arranged along both sides of the conveyor line. Each of the three-dimensional shelves 2 has a plurality of storage layers vertically distributed, and the bottom layer is generally set to be flush with the zero point height of the lifting platform of the lifting device 3, and the heights of the remaining layers can be flexibly set according to the size requirements of the power materials stored in the layer, wherein each storage layer of the shelf is respectively provided with a plurality of storage positions;

[0032] A lifting device 3 is arranged between the conveyor line 1 and the three-dimensional shelf 2. Forks can be arranged on the lifting platform to fork the transfer box of the power materials from the conveyor line, transfer the power materials from the conveyor line to the lifting platform, and then use the lifting platform to transfer the power material transfer box 4 to an appropriate height, so as to realize the transfer of goods between the conveyor line and the corresponding storage layer of the three-dimensional shelf;

[0033] Small-sized transport equipment, which can be realized by a four-way shuttle or any other form of movable equipment that can lift goods for picking and placing, is carried at the bottom of the power material transfer box 4, and can cooperate with the track on the three-dimensional shelf 2 and run accordingly between the conveyor line 1, the lifting equipment 3 and each layer of the three-dimensional shelf 2, carrying the power material transfer box 4 and moving it to the corresponding storage position on the track;

[0034] The electric power material transfer box 4 has a storage space for accommodating electric power materials, and the outer surface of the electric power material transfer box 4 is also attached with an identification mark of the electric power materials;

[0035] The identification unit 5 is respectively arranged at the interface position between each storage layer of the three-dimensional shelf 2 and the lifting device 3, and receives the identification signal of the identification mark on the power material transfer box 4 carried by the small carrier to identify the type of materials currently entering and leaving the shelf. It can also cooperate with the corresponding weighing unit to determine the quantity of materials taken by the weight of the materials when entering and leaving the shelf, so as to realize the dynamic update of the material storage status more accurately.

[0036] In this application, the power material transfer box 4 can generally be used Figure 4 The box shown in the figure can be opened at the top or sealed by a flap. The identification mark can be flexibly implemented according to the site conditions. In scenes with good lighting conditions, a QR code drawing pasted on the side wall of the box can be used, and in scenes with poor lighting conditions, an RFID identification tag can be used. The above two methods can also be used in coordination. The identification mark can generally be pasted on the side wall surface of the box above the supporting beam 22 according to the placement direction of the box.

[0037] Thus, the recognition unit 5 can identify the corresponding identification mark through the image acquisition device, or the radio frequency signal receiving device, or both devices at the same time. The image acquisition device for the two-dimensional code drawing can be set as a two-dimensional code recognition gun installed at the receiving port position between the three-dimensional shelf 2 and the lifting device 3; the radio frequency signal receiving device can be set as an RFID interactive terminal installed at the receiving port position between the three-dimensional shelf 2 and the lifting device 3.

[0038] Therefore, refer to Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 As shown, the four corners of the three-dimensional shelf 2 are supported by support columns 21, and horizontally installed support beams 22 are connected between each support column to support the power material transfer box 4 placed thereon. The inner side of each support beam 22 is also installed with a track for supporting the operation of small-sized transport equipment. Generally, in order to facilitate the operation of small-sized transport equipment, each layer of track can be preferably arranged to be installed on the lower side of each layer of support beams 22, and the guide rail is fixed to the inner side of each layer of support beams 22 through an L-shaped suspension assembly connection structure. As a result, the top surface of each track supporting the operation of small-sized transport equipment is located below the support beam 22, which can facilitate the operation of small-sized transport equipment between the beams. When the small-sized transport equipment is carrying goods and running, the power material transfer box 4 can be lifted upward to make its bottom surface separate from the top surface of the beam. When the power material transfer box 4 is transported to an appropriate storage location, the small-sized transport equipment can cancel the lifting of the power material transfer box 4, so that the bottom surface of the box falls on the top surface of the beam to realize the storage of goods.

[0039] In order to facilitate the identification of goods entering and leaving each layer of the shelf, the present application preferably fixes the aforementioned identification unit 5 on the inner side of each layer of the support beam 22 facing the track, so that each identification unit 5 sets its receiving direction upward toward the opposite support column 21. Taking into account the shooting angle and the radiation angle range of RFID, the present application generally prefers that the identification unit 5 in each layer of the shelf is respectively matched to the box height of the power material transfer box 4 of this layer, and is set to be tilted upward by 16° to 45° relative to the support beam 22 where the identification unit 5 is installed, so as to use this elevation angle to align the effective reading area of ​​the identification unit exactly with the location of the label on the box.

[0040] In order to further facilitate the inventory of the access data of each layer of materials in the warehouse shelves, in a more preferred implementation method, the shelves of the present application can further be further provided with corresponding pressure sensing units on each track below the identification unit 5 of each layer of the shelves. Thus, when the small-sized carrier carries the goods and passes through the pressure sensing unit, the computing unit of the system can calculate the weight of the load in the power material transfer box 4 according to the pressure value of the pressure sensing unit. At this time, in conjunction with the type of materials identified by the identification unit 5, the current quantity of the materials in the warehouse can be recorded. When the small-sized carrier carries the goods out of the warehouse, the remaining materials will also pass through the pressure sensing unit and the identification unit. Thus, the computing unit in the system can determine the actual extraction quantity of the materials in the warehouse according to the weight change of the goods carried by the same small-sized carrier between the outbound and the return, and update the material ledger form of the materials in the warehouse in real time.

[0041] The advantage of the present application is that the identification unit of the present application can identify the various types of materials placed on each layer of the three-dimensional shelf in layers. Therefore, the material form formed by it can effectively carry the storage location information of the materials, which is convenient for searching. In conjunction with the sensing of the actual load changes of the power material transfer box 4 entering and leaving the shelf, the system can also obtain the unit weight of the materials in the box according to the identification mark and then calculate the actual number of materials currently taken and put in the warehouse. As a result, the system can accurately count the actual number of materials of each category in the warehouse and realize real-time updating and verification of the form data in the warehouse.

Although the present application is described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the aforementioned embodiments or replace some of the technical features therein by equivalents.
