Detailed Implementation
[0020] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand this utility model, the technical solution of this utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0021] like Figure 1-5 As shown, the present invention provides a storage cabinet with a tool storage table, comprising a cabinet body 1, a circular cavity 11 inside the cabinet body 1, a rotating shaft 12 rotatably mounted in the center of the circular cavity 11, a motor 13 mounted at the bottom of the circular cavity 11, the output shaft of the motor 13 being connected to the rotating shaft 12 for transmission, and a plurality of circular support plates 14 rotatably mounted inside the circular cavity 11, with a connecting component between the circular support plates 14 and the rotating shaft 12;
[0022] The circular support plate 14 is slidably provided with several storage platforms 2 arranged in a circle. The side wall of the circular cavity 11 is provided with a pushing component for pushing the storage platform 2 to slide forward. The front side of the cabinet 1 is provided with a slot 21 that matches the storage platform 2. A controller 22 is installed on the front side of the cabinet 1. The motor 13 is electrically connected to the controller 22.
[0023] A camera 23 is installed on the front side of the cabinet 1, and the camera 23 is connected to the controller 22 via signal.
[0024] The connecting assembly includes an electromagnet 121 fixed by a rotating shaft 12, and a circular support plate 14 with an iron ring 122 that matches the electromagnet 121. The electromagnet 121 is electrically connected to the controller 22.
[0025] The circular support plate 14 has a strip groove 141, and the bottom of the storage platform 2 has a slider 201 that is slidably disposed in the strip groove 141.
[0026] The pushing component includes an electric slide rail 3 fixed to the lower side of the circular support plate 14. A moving block 31 is slidably provided in the electric slide rail 3. An arc groove 32 is provided on the upper side of the moving block 31. An arc block 202 matching the arc groove 32 is fixed on the lower side of the slider 201. The electric slide rail 3 is electrically connected to the controller 22.
[0027] In the initialization state, the appearance images of each tool are input into the database of the controller 22, with each storage station 2 corresponding to one tool;
[0028] When storing tools in the storage cabinet, staff members hold the tools in front of camera 23. Camera 23 takes a picture of the tools and transmits the picture to controller 22. Controller 22 compares the pictures in the database to determine the corresponding storage platform 2. Then, controller 22 controls the electromagnet 121 on the rotating shaft 12 to generate magnetic force and attract and connect with the corresponding iron ring 122. The rotating shaft 12 then connects with the corresponding circular support plate 14. Motor 13 can then drive the circular support plate 14 to rotate, causing one of the storage platforms 2 on the circular support plate 14 to rotate to the front. At this time, the arc block 202 fixed by the slider 201 on the lower side of the storage platform 2 will be located in the arc groove 32. Then, the electric slide rail 3 is activated to drive the moving block 31 to move forward, which in turn drives the storage platform 2 to move forward synchronously. The storage platform 2 will move out of the circular cavity 11 through the slot 21. After the staff members store the tools in the storage platform 2, the electric slide rail 3 drives the moving block 3 to move backward, so that the storage platform 2 is returned to the cabinet 1.
[0029] When staff borrow tools, they only need to select the tool to be borrowed on controller 22. The same steps as above will be followed, and the storage table 2 containing the corresponding tool will be moved out of cabinet 1, so staff can take it out.
[0030] Therefore, this application can automatically obtain tool borrowing and returning information, which facilitates the statistics of tool borrowing and returning information.
[0031] Furthermore, the camera 23 can be replaced with an RFID reader, and an RFID tag can be set on each tool. By reading the RFID tag on the tool with the RFID reader, the tool information can be identified and the tool can be stored in the corresponding storage table 2.
[0032] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
