For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be internal communication between two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances. In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
[0021] See Figures 1 to 3 A preferred embodiment of the present application shows a material box storage device comprising a plurality of storage units 1, which are stacked together to form the material box storage device. Each storage unit 1 is provided with a plurality of vertical partition boards 11 and a plurality of horizontal partition boards 12. The vertical partition boards 11 and the horizontal partition boards 12 cooperate to divide the storage unit 1 into a plurality of storage compartments 13. Each storage compartment 13 has a clearance groove 131 at the bottom thereof for avoiding mechanical grippers. Positioning ridges 2 are provided at the bottom of the storage compartment 13 and on both sides of the clearance groove 131 to position the material box.
[0022] According to the solution of the embodiment of the present utility model, the material box storage device is divided into a number of storage units 1 that can be spliced and stacked with each other to shorten the length of the vertical plate of the device outer frame to avoid the outer frame being too long and tilting vertically; at the same time, a whole vertical partition plate 11 and a whole horizontal partition plate 12 are arranged in the storage unit 1 to cooperate with each other to form a storage compartment 13 to ensure the height and levelness of the bottom of each row of storage compartments 13; an avoidance groove 131 is opened at the bottom of the storage compartment 13 to avoid the robot so that the robot can smoothly clamp the material box for loading and unloading.
[0023] The following is a detailed description with specific embodiments:
[0024] See Figure 1 and Figure 3At least one positioning ridge 2 is provided on either side of the avoidance groove 131. Specifically, in this embodiment, a pair of positioning ridges 2 are provided on either side of the avoidance groove 131. The gap between the two positioning ridges 2 in a pair of positioning ridges 2 can be adapted to different cartridge products for positioning, providing wider applicability.
[0025] See Figure 1 The vertical divider plates 11 are provided with connection slots 111. A single horizontal divider plate 12 is inserted into the connection slots 111 of several vertical divider plates 11 and welded to the vertical divider plates 11. Each row of storage cells 13 shares a common horizontal divider plate 12 at the bottom, ensuring uniform height and levelness of the bottoms of each row of storage cells 13. The horizontal divider plates 12 are installed by providing connection slots 111 on several vertical divider plates 11, inserting the entire horizontal divider plate 12 into the connection slots 111 on the same horizontal plane of the vertical divider plates 11, and welding the horizontal divider plates 12 to the vertical divider plates 11.
[0026] See Figure 2 The storage unit 1 is equipped with multiple infrared sensors 3 for detecting whether a magazine placed in a storage compartment 13 extends beyond the storage compartment 13. Specifically, in this embodiment, the multiple infrared sensors 3 correspond one-to-one to the multiple columns of storage compartments 13 in a single storage unit 1. The infrared sensors 3 are located at the top of the storage unit 1. When the infrared sensors 3 detect that a magazine has extended beyond the storage compartment 13, an alarm is sounded to prevent the robot from striking the magazine and causing damage.
[0027] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the partition plate 12 is bent upwardly at an angle toward the feed opening of the storage compartment 13 to form a blocking portion. By providing the blocking portion at the feed opening, the material box can be blocked and protected after being placed in the storage compartment 13, preventing the material box from sliding out of or extending out of the storage compartment 13.
