Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model mainly relates to the technical field of cargo transfer, and in particular to a storage cargo transfer auxiliary device. Background Art

[0002] In the modern warehousing and logistics industry, efficient and safe cargo transfer is crucial for ensuring smooth warehouse operations and efficient supply chain operations. With the continuous expansion of warehouse scale, the increasing variety of goods, and the increasing demand for timely logistics, traditional methods of cargo transfer, relying on manual handling or simple mechanical equipment, are no longer sufficient. More advanced and comprehensive warehouse cargo transfer assistance devices are urgently needed to improve transfer efficiency and ensure cargo safety.

[0003] For a long time, manual handling has been one of the basic forms of warehouse cargo transshipment. Workers use manpower to remove goods from shelves and then transport them to designated locations. This method is more common in small retail warehouses or places with small cargo storage volumes and low turnover rates. However, manual handling has many obvious disadvantages: on the one hand, it is inefficient, especially when faced with large quantities of goods that need to be frequently transferred or when the goods are heavy and large in volume. Manual operation is time-consuming and labor-intensive, seriously affecting the overall efficiency of warehouse logistics; on the other hand, during manual handling, goods are easily dropped or damaged due to improper operation and physical exhaustion, making it difficult to ensure the safety and integrity of the goods during transshipment. In addition, long-term and high-intensity manual handling work also has a certain impact on the physical health of workers.

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of manual handling, some traditional mechanical equipment, such as forklifts, are used in warehouse cargo transfer work. Forklifts can insert their forks under cargo pallets and transfer goods by lifting and moving them. Forklifts have certain advantages in handling palletized goods. They are suitable for situations where goods are neatly arranged and supported by pallets. They can improve transfer efficiency and reduce manual labor intensity to a certain extent. However, forklifts have limited operational flexibility. Forklifts have difficulty accurately picking up and placing some non-palletized goods, goods placed in narrow shelf spaces, or goods with irregular shapes. In addition, the lifting height of forklifts is limited. In large warehouses with many high-rise shelves, they often cannot meet the transfer needs of high-rise goods. They need to be used in conjunction with other climbing equipment, which increases the complexity and cost of operations. Utility Model Content

Example

[0031] Refer to the attached Figures 1 to 6 A warehouse cargo transfer auxiliary device includes a scissor-type lifting mechanism 1, a lifting platform 2 is provided on the output end of the scissor-type lifting mechanism 1, a pushing mechanism 3 is fixedly installed on the lifting platform 2, and a clamping assembly 4 is provided on the output end of the pushing mechanism 3. The lifting platform 2 is used to drive the pushing mechanism 3 and the clamping assembly 4 to move up and down, the pushing mechanism 3 is used to push the clamping assembly 4 to move in the horizontal direction, and the clamping assembly 4 is used to clamp the cargo.

[0032] The pushing mechanism 3 includes a mounting frame 31 vertically fixed on the lifting platform 2, a cylinder 32 is fixedly mounted on the mounting frame 31, the piston rod of the cylinder 32 is fixedly connected to the clamping assembly 4, a guide shaft 34 is fixedly mounted on the clamping assembly 4, a guide sleeve 33 is provided on the mounting frame 31, the guide shaft 34 is slidably mounted in the guide sleeve 33, and a limit block 35 is fixedly mounted on the end of the guide shaft 34 away from the clamping assembly 4.

[0033] The clamping assembly 4 fixes a first mounting plate 41 and a second mounting plate 42 which are arranged in parallel. Two clamping mechanisms 44 are provided on the first mounting plate 41. One clamping mechanism 44 is fixed to the first mounting plate 41, and the other clamping mechanism 44 is fixed to the output end of the rodless cylinder 45. The rodless cylinder 45 is fixed to the first mounting plate 41. An avoidance groove 43 for the passage of the clamping mechanism 44 is provided on the second mounting plate 42. Several supporting mechanisms 46 are provided on the first mounting plate 41. The supporting mechanisms 46 are used to support the bottom of the cargo.

[0034] The clamping mechanism 44 includes a mounting seat 441 , on which a second cylinder 442 is fixedly mounted. A clamping block 443 is provided on the output end of the second cylinder 442 . The mounting seat 441 is fixed on the first mounting plate 41 or the output end of the rodless cylinder 45 .

[0035] The supporting mechanism 46 includes a cylinder 3 461 fixed on the first mounting plate 41, and a connecting plate 462 is fixedly installed on the output end of the cylinder 3 461. The cylinder 3 461 drives the connecting plate 462 to move up and down. The connecting plate 462 is fixedly installed with a cylinder 4 463, and a supporting member 464 is fixedly installed on the output end of the cylinder 463. The cylinder 463 drives the supporting member 464 to move in the horizontal direction.

[0036] Guide rods 452 are provided in parallel on both sides of the rodless cylinder 45 , a slider 451 is fixedly mounted on the mounting seat 441 , and the slider 451 is slidably sleeved on the guide rods 452 .

[0037] Working principle:

[0038] When the height position of the goods needs to be adjusted, the scissor lift mechanism 1 is started, and the power device inside it begins to operate. Through the relative movement between the rods, the lifting platform 2 is driven to move up and down, thereby changing the height of the pushing mechanism 3 and the clamping assembly 4 installed on the lifting platform 2, so that it can rise to a suitable height for operating goods on different shelf layers, or descend to a height that is convenient for placing goods at a designated position.

[0039] When the clamping assembly 4 is to be pushed forward or backward, the cylinder 1 32 mounted on the mounting frame 31 is activated, and the piston rod of the cylinder 1 32 begins to extend and retract. Since the piston rod is fixedly connected to the clamping assembly 4, and the guide shaft 34 on the clamping assembly 4 is slidably mounted within the guide sleeve 33 of the mounting frame 31, during the piston rod's extension and retraction, the guide shaft 34 slides linearly along the guide sleeve 33, guiding the movement of the clamping assembly 4. At the same time, the stop block 35 prevents the guide shaft 34 from slipping out of the guide sleeve 33, thereby ensuring that the clamping assembly 4 can move smoothly in a linear direction in the forward and backward direction under the drive of the cylinder 1 32, allowing it to move closer to or further away from the location of the cargo.

[0040] For the clamping mechanism 44 installed on the output end of the rodless cylinder 45, the position of the clamping mechanism 44 is first adjusted through the operation of the rodless cylinder 45. The guide rods 452 on both sides of the rodless cylinder 45 play a guiding role. The slider 451 on the mounting seat 441 can slide along the guide rod 452 to ensure the linearity and smoothness of the movement, so that the goods are in a suitable position. When it is necessary to clamp the goods, start the cylinder 2 442, and the piston rod of the cylinder 2 442 extends to push the clamping block 443 on its output end to move toward the direction of the goods until the clamping block 443 contacts the goods and applies a certain clamping force. The clamping of both sides of the goods is achieved through the cooperation of the two clamping mechanisms 44.

[0041] When moving the cargo up and down, the supporting mechanism 46 begins to operate. First, cylinder 3 461 is activated, and the piston rod of cylinder 3 461 extends, driving the connecting plate 462 downward and adjusting it to the appropriate height, so that the supporting member 464 is at the appropriate height under the cargo, ready to support the cargo. Then, cylinder 463 is activated, and the piston rod of cylinder 463 extends, pushing the supporting member 464 forward until it reaches the bottom of the cargo, supporting the cargo and preventing it from falling during movement. Multiple supporting mechanisms 46 work together to provide stable bottom support for the cargo. Especially for irregularly shaped, unstable, or heavy cargo, the supporting mechanism 46 can effectively prevent the cargo from falling or dropping due to its own weight. Cooperating with the clamping mechanism, they ensure the integrity and stability of the cargo during transportation from multiple directions.

[0042] The above-mentioned embodiments only express a certain implementation method of the utility model, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the patent of the utility model. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all fall within the scope of protection of the utility model. Therefore, the scope of protection of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
