Detailed implementation mode

[0027] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0028] Embodiment 1:

[0029] As Figure 1 shown, this embodiment provides an unmanned transport forklift system, including a plurality of unmanned transport forklifts 1. Each unmanned transport forklift 1 includes: a forklift body 11, a fork arm lifting unit 15, a movement unit 16, and an anti-collision unit 18. The fork arm lifting unit 15 is arranged at the front end of the forklift body 11 and is used to carry goods. The movement unit 16 is arranged at the bottom end of the forklift body 11 and is used to move the forklift body 11. The anti-collision unit 18 is arranged on at least one side of the forklift body 11. The anti-collision unit 18 includes: an outer shell 181, rollers 182, and shock-absorbing springs 183. The two ends of the shock-absorbing spring 183 are respectively connected to the outer shell 181 and the forklift body 11. The rollers 182 are hinged on the outer shell 181, and the end face of the rollers 182 extends beyond the surface of the outer shell 181 away from the forklift body 11.

[0030] When the driverless transport forklift 1 has a blind spot in vision or is operated improperly, it may collide with other driverless transport forklifts 1. When a collision occurs, the anti-collision unit 18 of the driverless transport forklift 1 will come into contact first and bear the impact force of the collision. At this time, the shock-absorbing spring 183 plays a very good shock-absorbing role, preventing the impact force of the collision from directly acting on the forklift body 11, thereby avoiding damage to the forklift body 11 and the mechanisms fixed on the forklift body 11 due to a large impact. In addition, since rollers 182 are also provided on the outer housing 181, when a collision occurs, the rollers 182 on one driverless transport forklift 1 will come into contact with the outer housing 181 or the rollers 182 of another driverless transport forklift 1. At this time, the rollers 182 will convert the impact force of the collision into a sliding force, enabling the driverless transport forklifts 1 to separate from each other and preventing the impact force from continuing to act on the forklift body 11 to cause further damage to it.

[0031] It should be noted that the rollers 182 can be embedded in the grooves of the outer housing 181 and hinged and fixed to the outer housing 181. The end face of the roller 182 is the side of the roller 182 located outside the groove. When the driverless transport forklift 1 collides, the end face of the roller 182 is located outside the groove of the outer housing 181, making it easy to come into contact with the collided driverless transport forklift 1, thereby further playing its role in converting the direction of the force.

[0032] Preferably, multiple groups of rollers 182 can be evenly arranged on the outer housing 181, which is more conducive to the separation between the driverless transport forklift 1 and the collided object. The axial direction of the rollers 182 is the vertical direction, which is also conducive to enabling the driverless transport forklift 1 to quickly separate from the collided object.

[0033] Preferably, multiple groups of shock-absorbing springs 183 can be arranged, and the multiple groups of shock-absorbing springs 183 are evenly arranged on the surface of the outer housing 181.

[0034] Preferably, the anti-collision unit 18 is provided on the left and right sides and the rear end of the forklift body 11.

[0035] In this way, the anti-collision unit 18 can provide a more comprehensive protection for the left and right sides and the rear end of the forklift body 11, preventing the driverless transport forklift 1 from rubbing against surrounding objects to a large extent on the side, or preventing the driverless transport forklift 1 from causing a large degree of collision to the objects behind it during the reverse process.

[0036] Preferably, the rollers 182 can be steel rollers, which can withstand a large impact force and prevent damage during a collision and being unable to function.

[0037] Of course, for the outer housing 181 and the shock-absorbing spring 183, the material selection can refer to that of the roller 182, so as to ensure that they have greater strength, hardness and pressure-bearing performance, and avoid being easily damaged when subjected to collision forces.

[0038] Preferably, as Figure 4 shown, the unmanned transport forklift system further includes: a plurality of high-rise racks 2, an edge computing gateway and a monitoring center. The plurality of high-rise racks 2 are arranged inside the warehouse, and each high-rise rack 2 is provided with a goods label 22. The edge computing gateway is arranged at the top inside the warehouse, and the edge computing gateway is respectively communicatively connected with a plurality of unmanned transport forklifts 1 and the monitoring center. Each unmanned transport forklift 1 further includes a vision unit 13, and each unmanned transport forklift 1 is communicatively connected with other unmanned transport forklifts 1. The vision unit 13 cooperates with the goods label 22.

[0039] The edge computing gateway matches the unmanned transport forklift 1 according to the goods transportation task information sent by the monitoring center and performs path planning. The unmanned transport forklift 1 uses the vision unit 13 to collect real-time motion videos for path finding and obstacle avoidance, identifies the goods label 22 of the high-rise rack 2 to obtain goods information, and the height of the fork arm 151 of the unmanned transport forklift 1 is adjustable, capable of handling goods on the upper floors of the high-rise rack 2.

[0040] Preferably, as Figure 1 shown, the unmanned transport forklift 1 further includes a main control unit 12, an operation detection unit 14 and a battery unit. The main control unit 12 and the battery unit are both arranged inside the forklift body 11.

The battery unit is respectively electrically connected to the main control unit 12, the vision unit 13, the operation detection unit 14, the fork arm lifting unit 15 and the motion unit 16.

[0041] The main control unit 12 realizes data transmission with the edge computing gateway and controls the normal operation of other units. The motion unit 16 provides power for the forklift body 11. The vision unit 13 collects real-time motion video data and goods label data. The operation detection unit 14 detects the operation data of the unmanned transport forklift 1 in real time, and timely discovers the faults and abnormal conditions of the unmanned transport forklift 1. The height of the fork arm lifting unit 15 is adjustable, realizing the handling operation of goods on the upper floors of the high-rise rack 2. The battery unit provides the working voltage for the forklift body 11 and each unit.

[0042] Preferably, the driverless transport forklift 1 further includes a counterweight 17, which is arranged on the forklift body 11. In this way, the counterweight 17 is used to ensure the gravity balance of the forklift during the handling operation.

[0043] Preferably, the fork arm lifting unit 15 includes a fork arm 151, a lifting frame 152 and a support frame 153. The fork arm 151 is nested outside the lifting frame 152, and a climbing component is arranged at the connecting part of the fork arm 151 and the lifting frame 152. The climbing component is used to lift and lower the fork arm 151. The climbing component is electrically connected to the main control unit 12 and the battery unit respectively. The lifting frame 152 is nested outside the support frame 153, and a lifting hydraulic component is arranged at the top end inside the lifting frame 152. The lifting hydraulic component is used to lift and lower the lifting frame 152. The lifting hydraulic component is electrically connected to the main control unit 12 and the battery unit respectively. The bottom end of the support frame 153 is fixedly connected to the front end of the forklift body 11.

[0044] The fork arm lifting unit 15 adopts a split and hollow structure, which reduces the weight of the fork arm lifting unit 15 as much as possible. The fork arm 151 moves longitudinally on the lifting frame 152 through the climbing component, and the lifting frame 152 moves longitudinally on the support frame 153 through the lifting hydraulic component, realizing adjustable height. Moreover, the height adjustment range is larger than that of the existing forklifts, which is applicable to the high-rise rack 2 and improves the practicability of the driverless transport forklift 1.

[0045] Preferably, as Figure 2 shown, the height of the support frame 153 is only an example. In actual situations, the height of the support frame 153 is generally not lower than the overall height of the driverless transport forklift 1. A row of card slots 151-1 is longitudinally arranged at the contact part of the lifting frame 152 and the climbing component. The climbing component includes a fixed buckle 151-2, a climbing gear 151-3 and a climbing motor 151-4 with a specific model of AKM2G. The output end of the climbing motor 151-4 is fixedly connected to the climbing gear 151-3, and the climbing motor 151-4 is electrically connected to the main control unit 12 and the battery unit respectively. The climbing gear 151-3 cooperates with the card slot 151-1 of the lifting frame 152, and anti-slip rubber is arranged on the surfaces of both the climbing gear 151-3 and the card slot 151-1. The fixed buckle 151-2 is arranged on the side of the climbing gear 151-3 away from the lifting frame 152, and an electromagnetic mechanism is arranged at the control end of the fixed buckle 151-2. The electromagnetic mechanism is used to control the fixed buckle 151-2 to fall towards the climbing gear 151-3, and the electromagnetic mechanism is electrically connected to the main control unit 12.

[0046] The climbing motor 151-4 provides power for the climbing assembly. The climbing gear 151-3 and the slot 151-1 of the lifting frame 152 cooperate with each other to achieve the climbing operation. When the climbing motor 151-4 stops, the electromagnetic mechanism is energized, driving the fixed buckle 151-2 to fall towards the climbing gear 151-3 and catch the convex teeth of the climbing gear 151-3. Due to gravity, the climbing gear 151-3, the fixed buckle 151-2 and the slot 151-1 form a stable structure to prevent the fork arm 151 from falling. And a return spring is arranged on the side of the fixed buckle 151-2 away from the climbing gear 151-3, always giving the climbing gear 151-3 a pulling force to return to the original position. When the climbing motor 151-4 starts again, it provides upward power for the climbing gear 151-3 to offset the gravity, and the fixed buckle 151-2 returns.

[0047] Preferably, as Figure 3 shown, the lifting hydraulic assembly is arranged inside the top of the lifting frame 152. The lifting hydraulic assembly includes a hydraulic motor 152-1 with the specific model AKM2G, a lifting fixed rod 152-2 and a lifting movable rod 152-3. The hydraulic motor 152-1 is arranged at the top of the lifting fixed rod 152-2, and the hydraulic motor 152-1 is electrically connected to the main control unit 12 and the battery unit respectively.

In actual situations, the length of the lifting fixed rod 152-2 is not less than the length of the lifting movable rod 152-3, and the length of the lifting fixed rod 152-2 is generally equal to half of the height of the support frame 153, realizing the adjustment of the height of the fork arm 151 within the range of 0 to 2 times the height of the support frame 153. When the hydraulic motor 152-1 starts to work, it extends the lifting movable rod 152-3, driving the lifting fixed rod 152-2 to lift the lifting frame 152 to achieve height adjustment.
