DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] The following describes the specific embodiments of the present disclosure in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure and are not intended to limit the present disclosure.

[0032] In this disclosure, unless otherwise stated, directional words such as "upper" and "lower" generally refer to the relative "upper" and "lower" in the direction of gravity when the corresponding components are in use. Figures 1 to 3The directions of the drawings shown are as follows; "inside" and "outside" refer to the "inside" and "outside" relative to the outline of the corresponding component itself. In addition, the terms "first," "second," "third," etc. used in this disclosure are intended to distinguish one element from another and do not have a sequential or importance relationship. In addition, in the following description, when referring to the drawings, unless otherwise explained, the same reference numerals in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The above definitions are used only to explain and illustrate this disclosure and should not be understood as limiting this disclosure.

[0033] When the container is in normal use, after the drone carrying the goods lands on the take-off and landing platform module, the push rod on the take-off and landing platform module will push the drone to the docking position. The container's transmission mechanism may include a guide rail set in the height direction of the cabinet body, an RGV trolley and a robotic arm that can move on the guide rail. After the drone carrying the goods moves to the docking position, the RGV trolley will move to the predetermined position of the guide rail, that is, near the take-off and landing platform module, and then the robotic arm will remove the goods and transfer the goods to the compartment module through the guide rail until the user opens the compartment module and takes away the goods. In this process, the movement of the push rod, the movement of the RGV trolley, the activity of the robotic arm and the opening of the compartment module all require the operation of electrical components such as motors or control boxes. Therefore, the container will generate a lot of heat when working, which will cause the operating temperature of the container to be too high, affecting the normal use of the container.

[0034] like Figures 1 to 11 As shown, the present disclosure provides a cargo container, comprising a cabinet body 1, a take-off and landing platform module 2, a compartment module 3 and a transmission mechanism (not shown in the figure), wherein a first air inlet area 101 and an air outlet mechanism 102 are provided on the side wall of the cabinet body 1, and the first air inlet area 101 is provided below the air outlet mechanism 102; the take-off and landing platform module 2 is provided at the top of the cabinet body 1 for landing of the drone, and a second air inlet area 201 is provided around the take-off and landing platform module 2; the compartment module 3 is provided on the side wall of the cabinet body 1 for storing goods; the transmission mechanism is provided in a transmission channel 103 in the cabinet body 1 for transmitting goods between the take-off and landing platform module 2 and the compartment module 3, and the first air inlet area 101 and the second air inlet area 201 are both connected to the air outlet mechanism 102 through the transmission channel 103.

[0035] In this way, when the container is working, the low-temperature gas entering the cabinet 1 from the first air inlet area 101 will flow in the transmission channel 103, and most of the gas therein will be discharged from the cabinet 1 under the action of the air outlet mechanism 102 after passing through at least part of the grid module 3 and the transmission mechanism located in the transmission channel 103. In this process, the low-temperature gas can absorb the heat of at least part of the grid module 3, the transmission mechanism and other electrical components arranged in the transmission channel 103, that is, realize heat exchange with the electrical components, and finally the air outlet mechanism 102 discharges the heat-absorbed gas out of the container, thereby dissipating the heat of the container; and most of the gas entering the cabinet 1 from the second air inlet area 201 will first pass through the electrical components of the lifting and landing platform module 2, and then pass through the electrical components in the transmission channel 103 of the cabinet 1. Therefore, the gas entering the cabinet 1 from the second air inlet area 201 can absorb at least part of the heat of the electrical components in the lifting and landing platform module 2 and the transmission channel 103, so as to achieve the effect of dissipating the heat of the container. Based on this, the present disclosure can effectively dissipate heat for electrical components in the container under the joint action of the first air inlet area 101, the second air inlet area 201 and the air outlet mechanism 102, reducing or even avoiding damage to the electrical components of the container due to high temperature, thereby ensuring the normal use of the container.

[0036] The first air inlet area 101 may be configured as an air inlet hole formed on the side wall of the cabinet 1 and capable of communicating with the inside and outside of the cabinet 1 .

[0037] In addition, in order to quickly discharge the heat in the container, Figure 4 As shown, the air outlet mechanism 102 may include a first mounting port 1021, an air shield 1022 and an air outlet fan module 1023. The first mounting port 1021 is arranged on the cabinet body 1, and the air shield 1022 is connected to the cabinet body 1 and covers the first mounting port 1021. The air shield 1022 also has a second mounting port 1024 for installing the air outlet fan module 1023, thereby connecting the inside and outside of the cabinet body 1. Specifically, the air outlet fan module 1023 may include one or more air outlet fans and a fan control panel arranged side by side. The fan control panel can be arranged on the inner side of the air shield 1022 and electrically connected to the air outlet fan. The size of the second mounting port 1024 can be set according to the number and arrangement of the air outlet fans so that the air outlet fan can completely cover the second mounting port 1024. In this way, when the container is working, the air outlet fan can extract the gas in the cabinet body 1, and the air shield 1022 can prevent the extracted gas from flowing back into the cabinet body 1, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the container.

[0038] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, Figures 1 to 3As shown, the container can also include a transfer port 4 arranged on the top of the cabinet body 1 and a top cover assembly (not shown in the figure) that can be opened and closed at the transfer port 4. A third air inlet area 401 is arranged around the top cover assembly, and the third air inlet area 401 is connected to the air outlet mechanism 102 through the transfer channel 103. The top cover assembly can include two symmetrically arranged top covers, which can move closer to or farther away from each other under the action of a motor, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the top cover assembly. Specifically, the top cover will be opened by the motor when the goods arrive, so that the mechanical arm of the transmission mechanism can pass through the transfer port 4 from the transmission channel 103 and take the goods on the lifting and landing platform module 2. After the mechanical arm takes away the goods, the top cover will be closed again under the action of the motor. Since this process requires the motor to work, a certain amount of heat will also be generated. Since the top cover assembly is located at the top of the cabinet body 1 and is connected to the lifting and landing The platform modules 2 are arranged adjacent to each other, so most of the gas entering from the second air inlet area 201 will flow to the transmission channel 103 of the cabinet 1 before passing through the motor of the top cover assembly, resulting in poor heat dissipation effect of the top cover assembly. The gas entering from the third air inlet area 401 surrounding the top cover assembly will pass through the electrical components of the top cover assembly in the process of flowing to the transmission channel 103, thereby absorbing the heat emitted by the electrical components of the top cover assembly and discharging the heat from the container through the air outlet mechanism 102, thereby further improving the heat dissipation effect of the container and ensuring the normal operation of the container.

[0039] In some embodiments, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the top of the cabinet 1 is provided with an extension frame 5 extending outward from the cabinet. The landing platform module 2 is at least partially disposed on the extension frame 5. An extension shell 6 is connected to the outside of the extension frame 5. A first heat exchange channel 7 connected to the transmission channel 103 is formed between the landing platform module 2 and the extension shell 6. The provision of the extension frame 5 can increase the connection area between it and the landing platform module 2, thereby providing more stable support for the landing platform module 2 to facilitate the takeoff and landing of the drone. In addition, because the extension frame 5 extends outward from the cabinet 1, a cavity is formed between the landing platform module 2 and the extension shell 6. This cavity forms the first heat exchange channel 7 with the transmission channel 103 of the cabinet 1.

[0040] Since the electrical components such as the motor that drives the push rod to move the lifting and lowering platform module 2 are located in the cavity, the gas outside the container will first exchange heat with the electrical components of the lifting and lowering platform module 2 in the first heat exchange channel 7 after passing through the second air inlet area 201, and then enter the transmission channel 103 of the cabinet body 1 along the first heat exchange channel 7. In this process, heat is exchanged with at least part of the top cover assembly, the grid module 3 and the electrical components of the transmission mechanism, and the heat generated by the above-mentioned electrical components is discharged from the container through the air outlet mechanism 102.

[0041] In addition, if Figures 1 to 3As shown, the side walls of the cabinet 1 include a relative front wall 104 and a rear wall 105, the grid module 3 is arranged on the front wall 104, the extension frame 5 is at least partially arranged on the front wall 104 and located above the grid module 3, the top cover assembly is arranged above the transmission channel 103, and the first air inlet area 101 and the air outlet mechanism 102 are arranged on the rear wall 105. The first air inlet area 101 and the air outlet mechanism 102 are both arranged on the rear wall 105 of the cabinet body 1, so as to avoid as much as possible the interference of the two being arranged on different side walls of the cabinet body 1 with other modules or components in the container; in addition, since the grid module 3 is arranged on the front wall 104, and the extension frame 5 is arranged above the grid module 3, the first heat exchange channel 7 formed between the extension shell 6 of the extension frame 5 and the lifting and landing platform module 2 is arranged opposite to the air outlet mechanism 102, and the first heat exchange channel 7 is located obliquely above the air outlet mechanism 102. As a result, a good convection effect can be achieved between the two, the gas circulation efficiency is improved, and the heat dissipation effect of the container is ensured.

[0042] Of course, in some embodiments not shown in the figures, the first air inlet area 101 and the air outlet mechanism 102 can also be arranged on different side walls of the cabinet body 1. For example, the cabinet body 1 can also include a left wall and a right wall that are relatively arranged. The front wall 104, the rear wall 105, the left wall, and the right wall are jointly arranged to form the side walls of the rectangular cabinet body 1. The grid module 3 can be arranged on the front wall 104. The first air inlet area 101 and the air outlet mechanism 102 can be respectively arranged on any one of the left wall, the right wall and the rear wall 105, as long as they can achieve the effect of dissipating heat for the container.

[0043] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, Figures 1 to 3As shown, a first heat-exchange component 8 is provided between the air outlet mechanism 102 and the first air inlet area 101, and a second heat-exchange component 9 is provided between the air outlet mechanism 102 and the top of the cabinet 1. The first heat-exchange component 8 includes one of a control box 8a and a domain controller 9a, and the second heat-exchange component 9 includes the other of the control box 8a and the domain controller 9a. The control box 8a and the domain controller 9a are common electrical components in containers. The control box 8a can control the operation of the take-off and landing platform module 2, the compartment module 3, and the transmission mechanism to ensure that the drone can normally pick up and place goods through the container. The domain controller 9a can identify the user's identity information so that the user can take the corresponding goods. For example, the first heat-exchange component 8 can be the control box 8a. The air outside the container enters the cabinet 1 and passes through the setting position of the control box 8a during the process of the transmission channel 103 leading to the air outlet mechanism 102. Therefore, the control box 8a can be effectively dissipated, so that the working temperature of the control box 8a is maintained at a normal level. within the operating temperature range, ensuring the normal operation of the control box; the second heat-exchanged part 9 can be a domain controller 9a, so that on the one hand, the gas entering the container from the second air inlet area 201 and / or the third air inlet area 401 will pass through the setting position of the domain controller 9a in the process of passing through the air outlet mechanism 102, ensuring effective heat dissipation of the domain controller 9a, on the other hand, compared with the setting position of the first heat-exchanged part 8, the setting position of the second heat-exchanged part 9 is closer to the top of the cabinet 1, so that the domain controller 9a is connected to the antenna set on the take-off and landing platform module 2, so that the domain controller 9a can access the network through the antenna and realize data communication, for example, obtaining the user's identity information.

[0044] In some embodiments, as Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the control box 8a may include a first housing 81, having an air inlet 82 and an air outlet 83 disposed on opposite sides of the first housing 81 in a first horizontal direction A. The air inlet 82 allows air outside the control box 8a to enter the control box 8a, absorb heat generated by the electronic components of the control box 8a during operation, and discharge it through the air outlet 83, thereby achieving a heat dissipation effect for the control box 8a. In addition, the air inlet 82 and the air outlet 83 are disposed relative to each other in the first horizontal direction A, which not only creates a good convection effect, improves the air circulation efficiency and heat dissipation effect, but also prevents rainwater dripping from the top of the container from entering the control box 8a to a certain extent, thereby achieving a certain waterproof effect.

[0045] In order to better prevent rainwater from falling into the control box 8a, Figures 5 to 7As shown, the air inlet 82 and / or the air outlet 83 include a water retaining structure 84, which is connected to the outer wall of the first shell 81 and has a water retaining chamber 85 extending to the outside of the first shell 81; a first connecting port 86 for connecting the inside and outside of the water retaining chamber 85 is provided on the side wall of the water retaining structure 84, and a second connecting port 87 for connecting the water retaining chamber 85 and the first shell 81 is formed on the side wall of the first shell 81, and the first connecting port 86 is arranged closer to the bottom of the water retaining chamber 85 than the second connecting port 87. The water retaining structure 84 can be set in one of the air inlet 82 and the air outlet 83 according to the size of the space inside the control box 8a and the installation position of the control box 8a, or both the air inlet 82 and the air outlet 83 are provided with a water retaining structure 84; for example, if both the air inlet 82 and the air outlet 83 are provided with a water retaining structure 84, then during the operation of the control box 8a, the external gas will first enter the water retaining chamber 85 through the first connecting port 86, and then enter the first shell 81 from the second connecting port 87, and flow inside the first shell 81 to absorb the heat emitted by the electronic devices in the first shell 81 and then be discharged from the air outlet 83. Correspondingly, when the heat in the first shell 81 is discharged from the air outlet 83, it needs to first enter the water retaining chamber 85 from the second connecting port 87, and finally be discharged from the first connecting port 86.

[0046] When rainwater enters the container, it will first fall to the top of the water retaining chamber 85 during the dripping process, thereby blocking part of the rainwater from entering the control box 8a. Even if a small amount of water passes through the first connecting port 86, it will only remain in the water retaining chamber 85 and will not flow into the first shell 81 to affect the electronic components inside the control box 8a.

[0047] Specifically, the first communication port 86 can be provided on the opposite side of the water retaining chamber 85 that is provided opposite to the second communication port 87, and the projection of the second communication port 87 on the side wall of the water retaining chamber 85 and the first communication port 86 are spaced apart in the height direction of the control box 8a, or the projection of the second communication port 87 on the side wall of the water retaining chamber 85 partially overlaps with the first communication port 86. This can not only improve the flow efficiency of gas between the first communication port 86 and the second communication port 87, but also create a certain height difference between the bottom of the first communication port 86 and the bottom of the second communication port 87. Therefore, even after rainwater enters the water retaining chamber 85, it cannot enter the interior of the first shell 81 through the second communication port 87, thereby achieving a waterproof effect.

[0048] When the air inlet 82 or the air outlet 83 is not provided with the water retaining structure 84 , it is sufficient to directly construct a through hole that can connect the inside and outside of the first shell 81 .

[0049] In addition, if Figure 6As shown, a first fan module 88 can also be provided in the first shell 81. The first fan module 88 can accelerate the flow efficiency of the gas in the first shell 81, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the control box 8a. Specifically, the first fan module 88 can include one or more first fans. If the air outlet 83 of the first shell 81 has a water retaining structure 84, the first fan module 88 can cover the second connecting port 87 of the air outlet 83, so that the first fan module 88 can transport the gas in the first shell 81 to the water retaining chamber 85 and discharge it from the first connecting port 86 while preventing the gas in the water retaining chamber 85 from flowing back; or, when the air outlet 83 is not provided with a water retaining structure 84, the air outlet 83 can be constructed as a through hole, and the first fan module 88 covers the through hole to directly discharge the gas in the first shell 81; it should be noted that the arrangement of multiple first fans can be arranged side by side or adjacent to each other up and down according to the space of the first shell 81, and the present disclosure does not make specific restrictions on this.

[0050] In addition, a guide structure 89 is provided within the first shell 81 for guiding the flow direction of the gas within the first shell 81, thereby forming a second heat exchange channel 10 within the first shell 81. After entering the first shell 81, the gas outside the control box 8a will flow along the second heat exchange channel 10 under the action of the guide structure 89. The second heat exchange channel 10 may be provided with devices capable of dissipating heat, such as a power module 11 and a circuit board 12. The provision of the guide structure 89 can concentrate the gas to circulate within the second heat exchange channel 10, thereby removing the heat dissipated by the electronic devices within the first shell 81 and preventing the external gas from being too dispersed within the first shell 81 and affecting its heat dissipation effect on the control box 8a.

[0051] Among them, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the guide structure 89 can be configured as a baffle assembly, which is located near the top or bottom of the connection position between the air inlet portion 82 and the first shell 81 and extends toward the interior of the first shell 81 to form a second heat exchange flow channel 10. In this way, after the gas enters the first shell 81, it will be blocked by one side of the baffle assembly. As a result, under the action of the baffle assembly, it flows toward the heat-generating electronic devices, thereby achieving the effect of dissipating heat for the electronic devices.

[0052] Specifically, if Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the partition assembly may include a first partition 891 and a second partition 892 connected to the first partition 891; the first partition 891 extends horizontally from the top of the connection position between the air inlet 82 and the first shell 81 toward the side of the air outlet 83 of the first shell 81, and the second partition 892 is connected to the extended end of the first partition 891 and extends toward the bottom of the first shell 81, that is, the first partition 891 and the second partition 892 form an inverted L-shaped structure, and electronic components such as the power module 11 or the circuit board 12 can be arranged in the area surrounded by the first partition 891 and the second partition 892 and on the outside of the second partition 892. Therefore, most of the external gas will pass through components such as the power module 11 or the circuit board 12 after entering the first shell 81, so as to achieve the heat dissipation effect on the electronic components in the control box 8a.

[0053] In order to improve the heat dissipation effect of the power module 11, Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the power module 11 may include a connecting rod 1101, a supporting bracket 1102 and a battery body 1103. One end of the connecting rod 1101 is connected to the inner wall of the first shell 81, and the other end is connected to the supporting bracket 1102. The supporting bracket 1102 may be provided with a connecting end that can be electrically connected to the battery body 1103, so that the battery body 1103 can power the control box 8a after being placed on the supporting bracket 1102. The setting of the connecting rod 1101 can also make the supporting bracket 1102 and the side wall of the first shell 81 electrically connected. There is a certain gap between the battery body 1103 and the inner wall of the first shell 81, that is, there is a gap between the battery body 1103 and the inner wall of the first shell 81, so that when the gas flows through the battery body, it can also dissipate heat to the side wall of the battery body 1103 close to the first shell 81, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the battery body 1103. Of course, in order to further improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the battery body 1103, a plurality of heat dissipation holes can also be provided in the circumference of the support bracket 1102 to facilitate the circulation of gas around the support bracket 1102, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency.

[0054] In some embodiments, as Figures 8 to 11 As shown, the domain controller 9a may include a second housing 91, which includes an adjacent mounting chamber 92 and a heat exchange chamber 93. The mounting chamber 92 is used to mount the electronic components of the domain controller 9a. The heat exchange chamber 93 is provided with a heat exchange structure 94. The heat exchange chamber 93 is provided with an air inlet 95 and an air outlet 96. Since the mounting chamber 92 and the heat exchange chamber 93 of the domain controller 9a are adjacent to each other, the heat emitted by the electronic components in the mounting chamber 92 will be transferred to the heat exchange chamber 93, and the gas outside the second housing 91 will enter the heat exchange chamber 93 through the air inlet 95 and be discharged through the air outlet 96, thereby absorbing the heat in the mounting chamber 92 and discharging it from the domain controller 9a, thereby achieving a heat dissipation effect on the domain controller 9a.

[0055] Among them, such as Figure 10 As shown, the heat exchange structure 94 may include a second fan module 941 and heat exchange fins 942. The air inlet 95 is arranged opposite to the second fan module 941. The heat exchange fins 942 form a heat dissipation channel from the second fan module 941 toward the air outlet 96. The second fan module 941 can draw the gas outside the second shell 91 into the heat exchange chamber 93 and drive the gas to pass through the heat exchange fins 942 for heat exchange and then be discharged from the air outlet 96. Since the heat exchange fins 942 can exchange heat with the installation chamber 92, the gas in the heat exchange chamber 93 will bring the heat on the heat exchange fins 942 out of the heat exchange chamber 93 when discharged, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the installation chamber 92.

[0056] In addition, if Figures 8 to 10 As shown, a water retaining groove 97 that is concave in the horizontal direction can also be provided on the outer wall of the second shell 91. The water retaining groove 97 includes a groove bottom wall 971 and a U-shaped side wall that opens downward and surrounds the groove bottom wall 971. The air inlet 95 is provided at the top of the groove bottom wall 971, and the air outlet 96 is provided at the bottom end of the second shell 91 and faces downward. Since the water retaining groove 97 is concave toward the interior of the second shell 91, that is, there is a certain gap between the groove bottom wall 971 of the water retaining groove 97 and the outer wall of the second shell 91, even if rainwater flows down from the top wall of the second shell 91, it will drip directly instead of entering the heat exchange chamber 93 through the air inlet 95. Therefore, the operation of the second fan module 941 in the heat exchange chamber 93 is guaranteed.

[0057] Of course, the second fan module 941 can also be configured as a plurality of second fans arranged side by side in the heat exchange chamber 93. The projection of the second fan module 941 and the heat exchange fins 942 on the bottom wall 971 of the groove can cover the projection of the electronic components in the installation chamber 92 on the bottom wall 971 of the groove, that is, the setting position of the second fan module 941 and the heat exchange fins 942 in the heat exchange chamber 93 corresponds to the setting of the electronic components in the installation chamber 92, so that the heat exchange structure 94 can perform centralized heat exchange on areas that are prone to heat generation, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the domain controller 9a.

[0058] It should be noted that in order to prevent external dust from entering the cabinet 1 and at least some electrical components inside the cabinet 1, a dustproof net is provided on at least one of the first air inlet area 101, the second air inlet area 201, the third air inlet area 401, the first connecting port 86, the second connecting port 87, the air inlet 95 and the air outlet 96.

[0059] In summary, the present disclosure exemplarily illustrates the heat dissipation process of a container:

[0060] When the container is in operation, the air outlet fan module 1023 of the air outlet mechanism 102 is also in operation, so it can discharge the gas in the container. As a result, a large amount of low-temperature gas will continue to enter the container from outside the container in the first air inlet area 101, the second air inlet area 201 and the third air inlet area 401. Among them, the gas entering the cabinet 1 from the first air inlet area 101 will pass through the electrical components that can dissipate heat located in the transmission channel 103 in the process of flowing to the air outlet mechanism 102, such as the control box 8a, the domain controller 9a and the motor of the transmission mechanism, etc. The low-temperature gas will absorb the heat of these electrical components and be discharged from the container under the action of the air outlet mechanism 102, thereby achieving the effect of dissipating heat for these electrical components; the gas entering the cabinet 1 from the second air inlet area 201 will pass through the electrical components of the lifting and landing platform module 2 when circulating in the first heat exchange channel 7 to absorb their heat, and after entering the transmission channel 103 from the first heat exchange channel 7, it absorbs the heat of the electrical components in the transmission channel 103, and is finally discharged from the container under the action of the air outlet mechanism 102; the gas entering the cabinet 1 from the third air inlet area 401 will pass through the electrical components of the top cover assembly in the process of flowing to the air outlet mechanism 102, thereby absorbing the heat of the electrical components and finally being discharged from the container under the action of the air outlet mechanism 102. Based on this, under the action of the first air inlet area 101, the second air inlet area 201, the third air inlet area 401 and the air outlet mechanism 102, the container of the present invention can efficiently dissipate heat for the electrical components of each module located therein, thereby maintaining the operating temperature of the container within a normal usage range and ensuring the normal operation of the container.

[0061] In addition, the control box 8a and domain controller 9a located in the container also have a good heat dissipation structure. Among them, after the air outside the control box 8a enters the interior of the first shell 81, it will be concentrated in the second heat exchange flow channel 10 under the action of the guide structure 89, thereby dissipating heat for the main heat-generating electronic components in the control box 8a and ensuring the normal operation of the control box 8a; and the second fan module 941 and heat exchange fins 942 in the heat exchange chamber 93 of the domain controller 9a can guide the air outside the domain controller 9a to enter the heat exchange chamber 93 from the air inlet 95 and exchange heat with the heat exchange fins 942, thereby achieving heat dissipation for the electronic components in the installation chamber 92 and ensuring the normal operation of the domain controller 9a. Based on this, in addition to the effective heat dissipation of each module in the container disclosed in the present invention, other electrical components therein can also have a good heat dissipation effect.
