Detailed implementation manners

[0024] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and in combination with the accompanying drawings, the technical solutions of the present invention are further described, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0025] An automated intelligent bin, as Figures 1 to 5 shown, includes a bin rack 1, a controller 2 and a conveying device 3. A plurality of material trays 4 are placed in the bin rack 1. In this embodiment, a plurality of material trays 4 are uniformly arranged in the vertical direction.

[0026] A plurality of groups of support rollers I 9 are rotatably provided on the bin rack 1. In this embodiment, a group of support rollers I 9 consists of four support rollers I 9, and the four support rollers I 9 are located on the same horizontal plane. Of course, the number of support rollers I 9 can also be appropriately increased or decreased, and no specific limitation is made thereto. The support rollers I 9 are used to support the material tray 4 and are in rolling cooperation with the lower surface of the material tray 4, so that the material tray 4 is more labor-saving and smoother when moving.

[0027] A plurality of detection members are provided on the bin rack 1, and the plurality of detection members are all connected to the controller 2. A plurality of induction members for the detection members to detect are provided on the plurality of material trays 4. In this embodiment, the detection members include proximity switches 5, and the induction members include screws 6. The screws 6 are threadedly connected to the material trays 4, and the proximity switches 5 correspond to the screws 6. When the proximity switches 5 detect the screws 6, the proximity switches 5 transmit corresponding signals to the controller 2, and the operator can know from the controller 2 whether the corresponding material tray 4 has been placed in place, so as to realize the accurate control of the position of the tray by the operator, avoid affecting the subsequent transfer of the tray due to the incorrect position of the material tray 4, and thus effectively improve the production efficiency.

[0028] As another solution, the screws 6 can also be replaced by others, as long as they can be detected by the proximity switches 5.

[0029] Furthermore, a number of ball plungers 7 are provided on the storage rack 1. It should be noted that the ball plunger 7 belongs to the prior art, so the specific structure of the ball plunger 7 will not be described in detail. Positioning grooves 8 are provided on the side walls of several trays 4. The end of the ball plunger 7 can be inserted into or disengaged from the positioning groove 8. That is, by inserting the end of the ball plunger 7 into the positioning groove 8, the tray 4 and the storage rack 1 are kept relatively stable, and it is also easier for the operator to determine the position of the tray when placing the tray.

[0030] The positioning groove 8 is in a "V" shape, and the inclined surface structure of the "V" enables the end of the ball plunger 7 to be smoothly inserted into or disengaged from the positioning groove 8.

[0031] The conveying device 3 is connected to the controller 2. The conveying device 3 is used to convey the tray 4 to the transfer position 14. It should be noted that when the proximity switch 5 detects the screw 6, the proximity switch 5 transmits a corresponding signal to the controller 2, and the controller 2 can control the conveying device 3 to convey the tray 4 at the corresponding position to the transfer position 14 until the conveyance of all trays 4 is completed.

[0032] The conveying device 3 includes a lifting driving member 31, a translation driving member 32, and a traction member 33. The lifting driving member 31 is used to drive the translation driving member 32 and the traction member 33 to lift. The translation driving member 32 is used to drive the traction member 33 to move. The traction member 33 is used to traction the tray 4.

[0033] The traction member 33 includes a slide plate 331 and a positioning pin 332. The positioning pin 332 is provided on the slide plate 331. A positioning hole 10 is provided at the bottom of the tray 4. The positioning pin 332 can be inserted into or disengaged from the positioning hole 10. It should be noted that by inserting the positioning pin 332 into the positioning hole 10, the slide plate 331 can traction the tray 4.

[0034] The translation driving member 32 includes a linear slide table module one 321. The slide plate 331 is connected to the linear slide table module one 321. The lifting driving member 31 includes a linear slide table module two 311 and a lifting table 312. The linear slide table module two 311 is connected to the linear slide table module one 321. The linear slide table module one 321 is provided on the lifting table 312.

[0035] The linear slide table module one 321 is arranged horizontally. The linear slide table module one 321 can drive the slide plate 331 and the positioning pin 332 to move horizontally and approach or move away from the tray 4. The linear slide table module two 311 is arranged vertically. The linear slide table module two 311 can drive the linear slide table module one 321 to move vertically, and the linear slide table module one 321 drives the lifting table 312, the slide plate 331, and the positioning pin 332 to move vertically.

[0036] A slide rail 12 is provided on the storage rack 1. A slider 13 is slidably connected to the slide rail 12. The slider 13 is connected to the lifting platform 312. The slider 13 and the slide rail 12 cooperate to guide the lifting platform 312, thereby ensuring the stability of the lifting platform 312 when it slides.

[0037] At least two groups of second support rollers 11 are rotatably provided on the lifting platform 312. The second support rollers 11 are used to support the lower end surface of the tray 4, and the second support rollers 11 are in rolling cooperation with the lower surface of the tray 4.

[0038] The working principle of the present utility model is as follows:

[0039] When an operator places the tray 4, first place the tray 4 on the first support roller 9 until the end of the ball plunger 7 is inserted into the positioning groove 8 and the proximity switch 5 detects the screw 6. During transportation, the linear slide table module one 321 drives the slide plate 331 and the positioning pin 332 to move horizontally and approach the tray 4 until the positioning pin 332 aligns with the positioning hole 10. Then, the linear slide table module two 311 drives the linear slide table module one 321 to move upward in the vertical direction. The linear slide table module one 321 drives the lifting platform 312, the slide plate 331, and the positioning pin 332 to move upward in the vertical direction, so that the positioning pin 332 is inserted into the positioning hole 10. Then, the linear slide table module one 321 drives the slide plate 331 and the positioning pin 332 to move horizontally again. The positioning pin 332 pulls the tray 4 onto the second support rollers 11. Finally, the linear slide table module two 311 drives the linear slide table module one 321 to move upward in the vertical direction again. The linear slide table module one 321 drives the lifting platform 312, the slide plate 331, the positioning pin 332, and the tray 4 as a whole to move upward in the vertical direction until the tray 4 moves to the transfer position 14.
