[0025] Specifically, the AGV travel mechanism is used to achieve automatic positioning, walking, obstacle avoidance and route planning between the cart sorting area, warehouse shelves and outbound assembly lines. Its structure is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, it includes a base plate 11, a driving wheel 12 arranged on the base plate, a servo motor 13 that controls the rotation of the driving wheel to achieve walking, and a guide positioning component 14 arranged on the base plate. The guide positioning component is electrically connected to the driving motor and the control mechanism to achieve the movement of the AGV walking mechanism and path planning, etc. The AGV technology is the existing technology, so the specific structural composition and control principle of the wire positioning component can refer to the existing technology and will not be repeated again.

[0026] In order to improve the transportation efficiency in actual use, the shelf is designed to be multi-layered, with multiple storage locations 21 above and below, so that multiple medical kits can be temporarily stored at the same time. In order to ensure the smooth entry and exit of the medical kits after the storage location is docked with the docking platform, a first conveying mechanism 6 is installed in each storage location. Through the mutual cooperation of the first conveying mechanism and the conveying mechanism on the docking platform, the smooth retrieval and placement of the medical kits can be achieved.

[0027] Furthermore, the AGV walking mechanism is provided with a power supply mechanism 7 to realize the overall power supply of the trolley, which includes a power supply battery 71, an inverter 72 and a charging component 73. The power supply battery is connected to different power supply devices on the trolley through the inverter to realize the power supply operation. The charging component is electrically connected to the power supply battery to realize the charging of the power supply battery. The specific structure of the charging component is as follows Figure 3As shown, it includes a charging brush plate 731 and a charging brush block 732 that are interconnected, wherein the surface of the charging brush plate is provided with an input power terminal 733 that can be connected to an external charging device, and the surface of the charging brush block is provided with an output power line 734 that is connected to a power supply battery. When charging is required, the AGV walking mechanism automatically walks to the charging base, and the input power terminal is connected to the charging base to realize charging.

[0028] The docking platform can be adjusted up and down by the lifting mechanism to achieve docking with different storage positions. The lifting mechanism structure is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, it includes a door-type mounting frame 31, which is installed on the door-type frame and consists of a connecting shaft 32, a sprocket 33, a chain 34 and a driving motor 35 to form a lifting assembly.
