Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of AGV robots, in particular to an AGV robot with an adjustable carrying platform area. Background Art

[0002] AGV robots, or automatic guided vehicles, are robots that can guide and move automatically. They track ground signs through vision, magnetic navigation or laser, and achieve functions such as automatic navigation, movement, multi-sensor control, and network interaction. AGV robots achieve various tasks, including transporting materials, assembling parts, and warehouse management, by receiving and interpreting built-in computer code instructions. They use different navigation methods, such as magnetic strip guidance, laser guidance, and RFID guidance, to automatically transport materials to designated locations. In the process of using AGV robots to transport materials, if the loading volume is large and the weight is light, in order to improve transportation efficiency, more materials are often placed on the AGV robot for transportation, and the AGV robot transports the materials to the designated area.

[0003] With respect to the above-mentioned related technologies, the inventors found that the material carrying area of ​​the existing AGV robot is not convenient to adjust. Within the load range of the AGV robot, the carrying area cannot be properly adjusted according to the type of material being transported to transport more materials, which reduces the transportation efficiency of the AGV robot. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main technical problem solved by the utility model is to provide an AGV robot with an adjustable carrying platform area, which expands the carrying area of ​​the AGV robot and improves the transportation efficiency of the AGV robot by swinging the side support platform to a horizontal position and unfolding the auxiliary platform from the slide slot.

[0005] In order to solve the above technical problems, a technical solution adopted by the utility model is: to provide an AGV robot with an adjustable carrying platform area, comprising: two symmetrically arranged AGV robot bodies, a vertical support platform connected between the AGV robots, an intermediate bearing platform connected to the vertical support platform, side supporting platforms respectively hingedly connected on both sides of the intermediate bearing platform, and a driving mechanism for driving the side supporting platforms to swing between horizontal and vertical directions;

[0006] The outer side surface of the side support platform is provided with a slide groove, an auxiliary platform is slidably connected in the slide groove, and the outer side surface of the auxiliary platform is connected with a strip baffle;

[0007] It also includes a limiting component for preventing the auxiliary platform from falling off from the slide groove and a stopping component for preventing the auxiliary platform from moving in the slide groove.

[0008] By adopting the above-mentioned technical scheme, when transporting materials with large volume and light weight, the operating driving mechanism causes the side support platforms on both sides of the middle load-bearing platform to swing, so that the side support platforms swing to a horizontal state, thereby increasing the load-bearing area of ​​the AGV robot of the present application, increasing the number of materials transported at a single time, and improving the transportation efficiency. When the weight of the transported materials is within the load-bearing range of the AGV robot, the auxiliary platform can also be moved from the inside of the slide to the outside, thereby further expanding the load-bearing area of ​​the AGV robot of the present application, and also increasing the number of materials transported at a single time, and improving the transportation efficiency. By using the limiting component, the auxiliary platform is prevented from falling off the slide, thereby achieving the purpose of limiting. By using the stop component, the auxiliary platform is prevented from moving in the slide, so that the auxiliary platform and the side support platform are relatively fixed, thereby achieving the purpose of positioning.

[0009] In a preferred example, the utility model can be further configured as follows: the driving mechanism includes a telescopic driving rod assembly respectively connected between the side support platform and the vertical support platform, the telescopic driving rod assembly includes no less than two telescopic driving rod members, the telescopic driving rod member includes an electric push rod, and an articulated seat 1 and an articulated seat 2 hingedly connected at both ends thereof, the articulated seat 1 is connected to the side support platform, and the articulated seat 2 is connected to the side of the vertical support platform.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the telescopic rod of the electric push rod extends and retracts, thereby driving the side support platform to swing between the vertical direction and the horizontal direction. The structure is simple and the installation is easy.

[0011] In a preferred example, the utility model can be further configured as follows: the limit assembly includes two symmetrically arranged limit members, the limit members include a waist-shaped hole arranged on the lower plane of the side support platform and a limit rod arranged in the waist-shaped hole, and one end of the limit rod is connected to the auxiliary platform.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting rod slides relatively in the waist-shaped hole, thereby preventing the auxiliary platform from escaping from the sliding groove, thereby achieving the purpose of limiting.

[0013] In a preferred example, the utility model can be further configured as follows: the stop assembly includes a plurality of stop grooves arranged in a linear array on the auxiliary platform and butterfly bolts spirally penetrated on the side support platform and can extend into the stop grooves.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when the auxiliary platform moves an appropriate distance in the slide groove, the butterfly bolt is rotated so that its end extends into the corresponding stop groove, so that the auxiliary platform is fixed in the slide groove, reducing the probability of the auxiliary platform shaking during the driving of the AGV robot.

[0015] In a preferred example, the utility model can be further configured as follows: it also includes two symmetrically arranged U-shaped telescopic guardrails, and the U-shaped telescopic guardrails are connected between the strip baffle and the middle bearing platform.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the materials on the AGV robot are prevented from falling by using the function of two symmetrically arranged U-shaped telescopic guardrails.

[0017] In a preferred example, the utility model can be further configured as follows: the U-shaped telescopic guardrail includes two first plug-in rods connected at intervals on the strip baffle and two second plug-in rods connected at intervals on the intermediate bearing platform, a plurality of telescopic flat belts are connected at intervals between the first plug-in rod and the second plug-in rod, a plurality of the telescopic flat belts are connected at intervals between the first plug-in rods, the first plug-in rod includes a first fixed tube and a first plug-in rod plugged into the first fixed tube, a fabric sleeve is mounted on the first plug-in rod, and the fabric sleeve is connected to the end of the telescopic flat belt, the second plug-in rod includes a second fixed tube and a second plug-in rod plugged into the second fixed tube, the second plug-in rod is mounted on the fabric sleeve, and the fabric sleeve is connected to the end of the telescopic flat belt.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, when the AGV robot of the present application transports a large amount of materials, the materials are blocked by the telescopic flat belt connected between the first plug-in rod and the second plug-in rod and the telescopic flat belt between the first plug-in rods, thereby preventing the materials on the AGV robot from falling to the ground.

[0019] In summary, the present invention includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0020] 1. The driving mechanism drives the side support platforms on both sides of the middle load-bearing platform to swing to a horizontal state, which expands the material-bearing area of ​​the AGV robot and improves transportation efficiency.
