[0024] The following is combined with Figure 1-4 This application is described in further detail.

[0025] The inventory counting vehicle provided in the embodiment of the utility model is generally, but not limited to, used for inventory counting of books, archives, commodities and the like, and can be applied to other similar scenarios. Figure 1 , comprising a base 100, a guide rod 200 and a sensing element, wherein the guide rod 200 is disposed on the base 100 and is rotatably connected to the base 100. The sensing element is movably disposed on the guide rod 200, and is used to sense and scan labels. When it is necessary to scan labels at different positions, the relative position of the sensing element and the guide rod 200 is adjusted. Specifically, the guide rod 200 can be rotated relative to the base 100 so that the sensing element is aligned with the label, so as to facilitate sensing and scanning by the sensing element.

[0026] In some other embodiments, one end of the guide rod 200 can also be connected to the output shaft of the motor. When the angle of the sensing element along the horizontal direction needs to be adjusted, the guide rod 200 is driven to rotate by controlling the output shaft of the motor, thereby achieving the angle adjustment of the sensing element.

[0027] It is understandable that in some embodiments of the present invention, reference Figure 1 A moving part for driving the base 100 to move is disposed at the bottom of the base 100, so that the sensing part can continuously scan the labels at the same height position through the moving part. Specifically, the moving part includes a plurality of rollers 410, and the plurality of rollers 410 are disposed at intervals at the bottom of the base 100, so that the rollers 410 can drive the base 100 to translate along the arrangement direction of the labels, thereby driving the sensing part to translate along the arrangement direction of the labels, so that the sensing part can sequentially scan the labels at the same height position without repeatedly adjusting the angle of the sensing part and without manually holding the sensing part for scanning, thereby reducing the workload of the inventory counting personnel and reducing the fatigue of the inventory counting personnel.

[0028] In some other embodiments, the moving part can also be an AGV cart, and the base 100 is carried on the AGV cart. The AGV cart can drive the base 100 to automatically travel along a set route, so that when it is necessary to scan specific items on the shelf, the driving route of the AGV cart is set according to the position of the shelf, and then the AGV cart can drive the base 100 to move along the set route, so that the sensor can scan the labels in sequence without the need for the inventory personnel to manually push the base 100, thereby reducing the workload of the inventory personnel and further reducing the fatigue of the inventory personnel.

[0029] It is understandable that in some embodiments of the present invention, reference Figure 1The sensing component includes an RFID reader / writer 310, one end of which is movably connected to the guide rod 200. The RFID reader / writer 310 can read the labels on the item rack and feed back the scanning signals to the inventory personnel. When it is necessary to scan the labels at different positions, it is only necessary to adjust the relative position of the RFID reader / writer 310 and the guide rod 200 so that the RFID reader / writer 310 is aligned with the label to realize the inductive scanning of the RFID reader / writer 310.

[0030] It is understandable that in some embodiments of the present invention, reference Figure 1 There are multiple RFID readers 310, and the multiple RFID readers 310 are spaced apart along the length direction of the guide rod 200, so that when the base 100 moves, the multiple RFID readers 310 can respectively correspond to multiple tags for scanning and registration, so that when the inventory vehicle moves along the path, objects at different positions can be scanned at the same time, thereby improving the efficiency of scanning tags, which is conducive to finding the required objects.

[0031] It is understandable that in some embodiments of the present invention, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The inventory counting vehicle further includes a movable component, which is disposed between the guide rod 200 and the RFID reader 310, so as to adjust the relative position of the RFID reader 310 and the guide rod 200. Specifically, the movable component includes a sliding sleeve 510 and a locking member, the sliding sleeve 510 is movably disposed on the guide rod 200, the sliding sleeve 510 can slide along the length direction of the guide rod 200, and can rotate along the circumference of the guide rod 200, the RFID reader 310 is connected to the sliding sleeve 510, when the position of the tag is different, the RFID reader 310 can be adjusted to align with the tag accordingly, so that the RFID reader 310 can scan the tag, so that after the relative position of the RFID reader 310 and the guide rod 200 is adjusted, the locking member can fix the sliding sleeve 510 and the guide rod 200, and then fix the RFID reader 310 and the guide rod 200.

[0032] It is understood that in some embodiments of the utility model, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The locking member includes a fixing plate 521, a connecting plate 522, a first bolt 523 and a second bolt 524. The fixing plate 521 is arranged at one side of the sliding sleeve 510. One end of the fixing plate 521 is fixedly connected to the sliding sleeve 510, and the other end extends along the length direction of the guide rod 200. The connecting plate 522 is arranged at the top of the RFID reader 310, and the connecting plate 522 is located at one side of the fixing plate 521. Two through holes are formed through the fixing plate 521, and two through holes are formed through the connecting plate 522. The two through holes correspond to the two through holes respectively. The first bolt 523 and the second bolt 524 are threadedly connected to the two through holes respectively. The first bolt 523 and the second bolt 524 can pass through the through hole and the through hole in turn, and cooperate with the through hole thread, so as to fix the fixing plate 521 and the connecting plate 522.

[0033] It is understood that in some embodiments of the utility model, reference Figure 2 The first bolt 523 and the second bolt 524 pass through one end of the fixing plate 521 and can be respectively pressed against the two sides of the guide rod 200. After adjusting the lifting position of the RFID reader 310 and the guide rod 200, the first bolt 523 and the second bolt 524 are respectively pressed against the two sides of the guide rod 200, thereby fixing the fixing plate 521 and the guide rod 200, and then fixing the RFID reader 310 and the guide rod 200, so as to limit the movement of the RFID reader 310 relative to the guide rod 200. In this embodiment, there are two locking members, which are respectively located on the two sides of the sliding sleeve 510.

[0034] It is understandable that in some embodiments of the present invention, reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The fixing plate 521 is provided with a waist-shaped hole 530, which corresponds to the position of the second bolt 524, and is provided along the circumference of the first bolt 523, so that the second bolt 524 can slide along the length direction of the waist-shaped hole 530, that is, the second bolt 524 rotates relative to the first bolt 523. Since the second bolt 524 is threadedly engaged with the through hole, the connecting plate 522 can rotate relative to the fixing plate 521, thereby realizing the up and down swinging of the RFID reader 310 relative to the guide rod 200, thereby increasing the scanning range of the RFID reader 310.

[0035] In some other embodiments, the locking member can also be a clamp, which is arranged outside the sliding sleeve 510. The clamp can lock the sliding sleeve 510 and the guide rod 200 by tightening bolts. Therefore, when the height of the RFID reader 310 needs to be adjusted according to the required scanning height, the sliding sleeve 510 and the guide rod 200 are relatively moved, so that the sliding sleeve 510 is lifted or lowered relative to the guide rod 200, and the sliding sleeve 510 can be rotated relative to the guide rod 200 along the axial direction of the guide rod 200, so that the RFID reader 310 is aligned with the label to be scanned, and the clamp is contracted by tightening bolts, so that the sliding sleeve 510 and the guide rod 200 are fixed, thereby fixing the relative position of the RFID reader 310 and the guide rod 200.

[0036] It is understandable that in some embodiments of the present invention, reference Figure 4 The inventory counting vehicle is provided with a scanner 600 for scanning the label. The scanner 600 is arranged on the top of the base 100. The scanner 600 can further scan the label scanned by the RFID reader 310. When the RFID reader 310 scans the label of the required item, the inventory counting personnel takes the item from the shelf and places it on the scanner 600. The scanner 600 can identify the label, thereby further scanning and confirming the item to improve the accuracy of scanning the required item.

[0037] It is understandable that in some embodiments of the present invention, reference Figure 4 The inventory counting vehicle is provided with an item carrying frame 700, which is arranged on the base 100. The item carrying frame 700 is used to carry items scanned by the RFID reader 310. When the inventory counting vehicle needs to find multiple items, the roller 410 drives the inventory counting vehicle to move along the path of the frame, and the RFID reader 310 scans the items on the frame in sequence, so that the inventory counting personnel can place the scanned required items in the item carrying frame 700 to facilitate the transportation of the items.

[0038] It is understandable that in some embodiments of the present invention, reference Figure 4 The inventory counting vehicle is provided with a display screen 800. When the RFID reader / writer 310 and the scanner 600 scan the label of the item, the display screen 800 can display the label data scanned by the RFID reader / writer 310 for the inventory counting personnel to check.

[0039] The implementation principle of the present application is as follows: when the inventory personnel need to scan items, the RFID reader 310 needs to be aligned with the position of the items to be scanned. At this time, the second bolt 524 slides along the length direction of the waist-shaped hole 530, so that the RFID reader 310 can swing up and down relative to the guide rod 200. At the same time, the sliding sleeve 510 moves along the length direction of the guide rod 200 and rotates along the circumferential direction of the guide rod 200 to achieve angle adjustment of the RFID reader 310 in multiple directions, so that the first bolt 523 and the second bolt 524 are respectively threadedly connected to the two through holes to fix the relative position of the connecting plate 522 and the fixing plate 521, thereby limiting the up and down swinging of the RFID reader 310 relative to the guide rod 200; at the same time, the first bolt 523 and the second bolt 524 are respectively pressed against the two sides of the guide rod 200, so as to fix the fixing plate 521 and the guide rod 200, and then fix the RFID reader 310 and the guide rod 200 to limit the moving position of the RFID reader 310 relative to the guide rod 200. At this time, the roller 410 drives the base 100 to move along the path where the items are distributed, driving the RFID reader 310 to scan the items at the same height in sequence, thereby improving the scanning efficiency. There is no need to repeatedly adjust the angle of the RFID reader 310, and there is no need to manually hold the sensing element for scanning, which reduces the workload of the inventory personnel and reduces the fatigue of the inventory personnel.

[0040] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
