The nut 232 is fixedly connected to the lifting plate 22, and the lifting servo assembly is used to drive the lifting screw 231 to rotate; the lifting frame 21 is connected to the vehicle body 10 so as to be movably forward and backward through the forward movement mechanism 40, and the forward movement mechanism 40 includes a forward movement screw pair 41 and a forward movement servo assembly. The forward movement screw pair 41 includes a forward movement screw 411 horizontally extending along the front and rear direction and rotatably connected to the vehicle body 10, and a forward movement screw nut 412 matched with the forward movement screw 411 and sleeved on the forward movement screw 411. The forward movement screw nut 412 is fixedly connected to the lifting frame 21, and the forward movement servo assembly is used to drive the forward movement screw 411 to rotate.

[0027] The advantage of this arrangement is that the lifting servo assembly and the forward servo assembly can respectively drive the lifting screw and the forward screw to rotate, thereby achieving precise positioning and alignment of the accessories in the front and rear directions and the up and down directions. It has high positioning accuracy and good position reproducibility, and is particularly suitable for high-precision docking, transportation and stacking of mold goods.

[0028] In this embodiment, the lifting servo assembly is arranged at the top of the lifting frame 21, and the lifting servo assembly includes a lifting servo motor 24 and a lifting right-angle reducer 25 connected to the output shaft of the lifting servo motor 24, and the output end of the lifting right-angle reducer 25 is connected to the upper end of the lifting screw rod 231; the forward servo assembly is arranged on the vehicle body 10 and is located behind the forward screw rod 411, and the forward servo assembly includes a forward servo motor (not shown in the figure) and a forward right-angle reducer 42 connected to the output shaft of the forward servo motor, and the output end of the forward right-angle reducer 42 is connected to the rear end of the forward screw rod 411.

[0029] The advantage of this setting is that it can facilitate weight counterweighting, making the entire full-servo forward-moving automatic guided vehicle more stable.

[0030] Furthermore, the full-servo forward-moving automatic guided vehicle also includes a servo drive unit 11 for driving the vehicle body 10 to move horizontally (forward, backward, turning), and a control unit 12 for controlling the action of the servo drive unit 11 to achieve full servo drive.

[0038] In the second step, the control unit 12 sends a command to the servo drive unit 11 according to the distance signal detected by the distance measuring sensor 15, causing it to act until the vehicle body 10 is adjusted to be parallel to the cargo.

[0039] In the third step, the control unit 12 controls the servo drive unit 11 to move, driving the vehicle body 10 to move forward and backward until the detection camera 16 detects the docking mark of the pickup station or the delivery station.

[0040] In the fourth step, the control unit 12 sends a command to the spacing adjustment mechanism of the attachment 30 to adjust the spacing of the attachment 30 to a suitable state.

[0041] In the fifth step, the control unit 12 sends instructions to the lifting servo assembly and the forward movement servo assembly to adjust the attachment 30 to the pickup or placement position to achieve accurate pickup or placement.

[0042] During operation, the obstacle avoidance radar monitors the surrounding environment in real time to achieve safe obstacle avoidance.
