[0007] Further, the fixed frame includes two main side columns, both of which are vertically fixed on the load-carrying AGV. The lifting frame includes two columns and two connecting plates. The two columns and the two connecting plates are fixedly connected into a rectangular frame. On the opposite faces of the two main side columns, there are first sliding grooves. The two columns are respectively slidably connected in the first sliding grooves of the two main side columns. On the opposite faces of the two columns, there are second sliding grooves. The two ends of the side of the backing plate are respectively slidably connected in the two second sliding grooves.

[0008] Further, the first driving member includes a first motor and a first threaded rod. The first motor is fixed at the bottom of any one of the main side columns. The first threaded rod is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the first motor. The first threaded rod is threadedly connected to the bottom of the column slidably connected to the main side column.

[0009] Further, the second driving member includes a second motor and a second threaded rod. The second motor is fixed at the bottom of the column not connected to the first threaded rod. The second threaded rod is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the second motor. A guide block is threadedly connected to the second threaded rod. The guide block is vertically slidably connected in the second sliding groove. The guide block is fixedly connected to the backing plate.

[0010] Further, the third driving member is a steering gear. The steering gear is installed on the backing plate. The cargo-carrying box is fixed on the steering gear.

[0011] Further, the extending mechanism includes a third motor, a third threaded rod, a driving block and a U-shaped extending plate. There is a third sliding groove at the bottom of the cargo-carrying box. The third motor is fixed at the end of the third sliding groove. The third threaded rod is located in the third sliding groove. The third threaded rod is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the third motor. The middle of the driving block is slidably connected in the third sliding groove. And the driving block is threadedly connected to the third threaded rod. The U-shaped extending plate is fixedly connected to the driving block. The cargo-gripping mechanism is fixed on the U-shaped extending plate.

[0012] Furthermore, the goods clamping mechanism includes a mounting plate, a double-headed motor, two fourth threaded rods, and two side clamping plates. A fourth sliding groove is provided at the end of the U-shaped extending plate, and the mounting plate is fixed in the middle of the fourth sliding groove.

When the bottom end of the lifting frame moves to the top of the fixing frame; start the second motor to drive the second threaded rod to rotate, which can drive the backing plate and the cargo-carrying box to move up and down along the lifting frame. The cargo-carrying box moves upward, so that the cargo-carrying box can pick up and place the bins at higher positions; start the third motor to drive the third threaded rod to rotate, which can drive the driving block and the U-shaped extending plate to move out. The U-shaped extending plate drives the goods clamping mechanism to both sides of the bin. Start the double-headed motor to drive the fourth threaded rod to rotate, which can drive the two side clamping plates to move towards each other, and then the bins of different sizes can be clamped. Retract the goods clamping mechanism, start the steering gear, which can steer the cargo-carrying box. Start the first motor and the second motor to rotate in the reverse direction, so that the backing plate, the cargo-carrying box, and the lifting frame move downward, and then start the extending mechanism again to push the bin into the bin rack.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this solution: (1) In this solution, the lifting frame can move up and down along the fixing frame, which can be applicable to the handling of bins in warehouses of various different heights. For low-rise warehouses, the position of the lifting frame can be adjusted to the lowest for bin handling. For higher warehouses, the lifting frame can be raised to adapt to the warehouse height to handle the bins at higher positions. The backing plate on the lifting frame can move up and down along the lifting frame, so that the cargo-carrying box can be lifted to a suitable height according to the shelf height to pick up the bin, and after picking up, it is automatically pushed into the bin rack and finally transported by the load-carrying AGV.

[0016] (2) The goods clamping mechanism can clamp according to the different sizes of the bins, with a wide range of applications. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
