[0032] like Figure 1-2 As shown, an airport carpet handling device includes: an AGV vehicle 1, a carpet clamping assembly 2, a support assembly 3, a power assembly 4, and a guide assembly 5.

[0033] AGV 1 serves as the mobile platform for the entire system; AGV 1 is responsible for transporting the carpet delivery and pickup device to the designated location and providing stable support during the laying and retrieval processes. AGV 1 is equipped with a navigation system, enabling precise positioning and movement via ground markings or remote control commands.

[0034] The carpet clamping assembly 2 includes two connecting rods 21 for clamping the carpet. After the two connecting rods 21 rotate, the carpet is wrapped around the carpet clamping device. The carpet clamping assembly 2 realizes the unfolding and winding of the carpet through the rotating disk 22 driven by the motor 41 and the connecting rod 21 structure.

[0035] The two ends of the two connecting rods 21 of the carpet clamping assembly 2 are respectively fixedly connected to the rotating disk 22 to ensure that the connecting rods 21 rotate synchronously with the rotating disk 22; a plurality of limiting holes 221 are provided on one end face of the rotating disk 22, and the connecting rods 21 are inserted into the limiting holes 221; a rotating shaft 222 is provided on the other end of the rotating disk; the rotating shaft 222 is installed in the first support frame 31 through bearings to ensure smooth rotation; a sprocket 43 is provided on one end of the rotating shaft 222 that extends out of the first support frame 31, and works with the transmission chain 42 to transmit power.

[0036] The limiting hole 221 on the rotating disk 22 ensures the stability and synchronization of the connecting rod 21, while the rotating shaft 222 is installed in the support frame through bearings, ensuring the smoothness of rotation.

[0037] The support assembly 3 includes two first support frames 31, fixed to the AGV vehicle 1, for holding the support carpet clamp assembly 2 at both ends. The support frames are designed in a triangular shape and equipped with reinforcing ribs 311 to ensure the stability and strength of the structure. The triangular design increases the stability of the structure, while the reinforcing ribs 311 further enhance the bending resistance of the support frames, preventing deformation during use.

[0038] The power component 4 includes a motor 41 and a transmission chain 42. The motor 41 is fixed on the AGV vehicle 1. The motor 41 drives the carpet clamping component 2 to rotate through the transmission chain 42, thereby realizing the unfolding and retraction of the carpet.

[0039] The guide assembly 5, located at the front of the carpet clamping assembly 2, includes a first guide roller 51 and a second clamping guide roller 52, for guiding the carpet onto the carpet clamping assembly 2 to ensure that the carpet maintains the correct path during installation and recycling.

[0040] The height of the first guide roller 51 is lower than the height of the second clamping guide roller 52. The second clamping guide roller 52 includes an upper guide roller 521 and a lower guide roller 522. The carpet passes through the first guide roller and then through the gap between the upper guide roller 521 and the lower guide roller 522 of the second guide roller, and enters the carpet clamping assembly 2.

[0041] The first guide roller 51 is lower than the second clamping guide roller 52, forming a progressive guide path that allows the carpet to smoothly enter the carpet clamping assembly 2. The second clamping guide roller 52 consists of an upper guide roller 521 and a lower guide roller 522, forming a clamping channel to ensure that the carpet does not shift or fold when entering the carpet clamping assembly 2. The design of the guide assembly 5 also reduces friction and damage to the carpet during loading and unloading.

[0042] The carpet clamping assembly 2 is provided with a cylindrical protective cover 6 on its outer periphery. The front of the protective cover 6 is open, providing necessary protection during carpet loading and unloading without hindering the carpet's entry and exit. The two ends of the protective cover 6 are fixed to the AGV vehicle 1 by the second support frame 32.

[0043] A protective cover 6 is installed on the outer periphery of the carpet clamping assembly 2. The front opening of the protective cover 6 provides necessary protection during carpet loading and unloading without obstructing the carpet's entry and exit. Both ends of the protective cover 6 are fixed to the AGV vehicle 1 via a second support frame 32. The motor 41 and transmission chain 42 are also protected by the protective cover 6. The protective cover 6 not only prevents dust and moisture from entering the motor 41 and transmission chain 42, but also reduces contact between external objects and moving parts, preventing accidents.

[0044] Red carpet laying process

[0045] Step 1: The operator navigates AGV 1 to the designated location using a remote control system or a ground marking recognition system. The camera or other sensors on AGV 1 can recognize preset path markings or QR codes on the ground to ensure accurate positioning.

[0046] Step 2: After reaching the designated position, AGV 1 stops and prepares, and motor 41 rotates in the forward direction.

[0047] Step 3: The worker leads one end of the carpet out from the front opening of the protective cover 6, through the gap between the upper guide roller 521 and the lower guide roller 522 of the second clamping guide roller 52, and then through the first guide roller 51. The AGV vehicle 1 moves backward while the motor 41 rotates forward to lay the carpet.

[0048] During installation, motor 41 drives sprocket 43 to rotate via transmission chain 42, and sprocket 43 in turn drives rotating shaft 222 and rotating disk 22 to rotate synchronously. Rotating disk 22 drives two connecting rods 21 to rotate, gradually unfolding and laying the carpet on the ground.

[0049] As the carpet is continuously unfolded, the AGV 1 moves slowly to ensure that the carpet is laid evenly. The first guide roller 51 and the second clamping guide roller 52 in the guide assembly 5 work together to maintain the flatness and alignment of the carpet.

[0050] Step 4: Once the carpet is completely laid, motor 41 stops working, completing the laying process.

[0051] Step 5: AGV 1 returns to its starting position or stands by, waiting to retrieve the carpet.

[0052] Red carpet recycling process

[0053] Step 1: After the activity is over, the operator will navigate AGV 1 to the starting point of carpet laying to prepare for carpet recycling.

[0054] Step 2: First, the staff needs to manually guide the carpet through the gap between the first guide roller 51 and the second clamping guide roller 52, and into the space between the two connecting rods 21 of the carpet clamping assembly 2, where it will finally be grabbed by the carpet clamping assembly 2.

[0055] Step 3: Start the motor 41. The motor 41 drives the sprocket 43 to rotate via the transmission chain 42. The sprocket 43 then drives the rotating shaft 222 and the rotating disk 22 to rotate synchronously. The rotating disk 22 drives the two connecting rods 21 to rotate counterclockwise, gradually rolling the carpet onto the carpet clamping assembly 2.

[0056] Step 4: As the carpet is continuously rolled up, the AGV 1 moves slowly forward, ensuring the carpet is rolled up evenly. The first guide roller 51 and the second clamping guide roller 52 in the guide assembly 5 work together to maintain the flatness and alignment of the carpet.

[0057] Step 8: Once the carpet is completely rolled up, motor 41 stops working.

[0058] Step 9: AGV vehicle 1 returns to the warehouse, awaiting the next deployment.

[0059] The above description is only an optional embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
