Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shelving technology, specifically an automated picking shelving system for logistics warehousing. Background Technology
[0002] Logistics warehousing is a key link in the modern logistics system, playing an important role in connection, transshipment, storage, and safekeeping.
[0003] Logistics storage racks are an indispensable part of modern warehouse management. They not only improve space utilization but also enhance the efficiency and security of goods storage and retrieval.
[0004] A fully automated picking warehouse rack described in the prior art includes a warehouse body, with racks fixedly installed on both sides of the inner wall of the warehouse body. The racks are equipped with fixing devices inside. An electric telescopic rod is fixedly installed on the top of the outer surface of the warehouse body. A disassembly structure is movably installed at the output end of the electric telescopic rod. A clamp is fixedly installed on the bottom of the outer surface of the disassembly structure. A ventilation slot is opened on one side of the inner wall of the warehouse body. A ramp is fixedly installed on the bottom of the inner wall of the warehouse body. A loading port is fixedly installed on one side of the outer surface of the warehouse body.
[0005] The aforementioned existing fully automated picking storage racks require the activation of an electric telescopic rod when retrieving an object. This rod drives the clamps downwards. When the clamps contact the object, the blocks at both ends exert a downward force on the push rod, causing it to move downwards. This downward movement of the push rod drives the rotating rod downwards, which in turn causes the hollow block to move inwards. This inward movement of the hollow block causes the elastic spring to extend and retract. When the first fixing plate completely detaches from the object surface and contacts the first layer of fixing, the downward movement of the push rod causes the limit rotating rod to rotate and compress the return spring. The rotation of the limit rotating rod causes the second fixing plate to move horizontally. When the second fixing plate detaches from the object surface and contacts the second layer of fixing, the clamps hold the object. Automated warehousing systems require significant investment. Fully automated picking storage racks require the activation of an electric telescopic rod to drive the clamps downwards, involving a series of complex mechanical actions to complete the retrieval. This structure is complex, the retrieval process is cumbersome, and it has drawbacks in space utilization and flexibility. Utility Model Content

The controller 4 is located on the outer wall of the top side of the picking rack 1, and the picking rack 1 is parallel to one side of the logistics storage rack. The cargo alarm is affixed to the outer wall of the partition of each logistics storage rack. The barcode on the outer wall of the goods on the partition of the logistics storage rack is connected to the controller 4 through a scanner. The cargo alarm is electrically connected to the controller 4 through a wire.
[0027] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the controller 4 is responsible for receiving signals from each component and controlling the actions of each component according to a preset program. The controller 4 is wirelessly connected to the control motherboard inside the guide rail retrieval trolley 31 through wireless transmission to achieve centralized control of the entire system.
[0028] Cargo alarms are affixed to the outer wall of the partition of each logistics storage rack to detect the position and status of goods. When a goods need to be retrieved, the scanner scans the QR code of the goods to be retrieved, which matches the QR code of the goods stored in the controller. At this time, the controller sends a signal to the corresponding cargo alarm. The cargo alarm receives the signal and processes it, and the cargo alarm on the corresponding shelf sounds an alarm, quickly locating the corresponding goods, so that the guide rail retrieval trolley 31 can start retrieving the goods.
[0029] Please see Figure 2 , 34 and 5, the picking rack 1 includes symmetrically arranged picking uprights 11, with a support plate 111 connected to the top of the picking uprights 11. The picking lifting assembly 2 is located on top of the support plate 111. The two picking uprights 11 are connected at the bottom by a support base plate 12. Sliding blocks 13 are slidably fitted on each of the two picking uprights 11. Fixed plates 14 are connected to the inner walls of the two sliding blocks 13. The two fixed plates 14 are connected by a picking horizontal plate 15. The horizontal moving assembly 3 is located on the picking horizontal plate 15. A guide rod 131 is connected through the sliding block 13. The top of the guide rod 131 is connected to the bottom of the support plate 111, and the bottom of the guide rod 131 is connected to the support base plate 12. The picking lifting assembly 2 includes a lifting shaft 21, a lifting motor 22, and a lifting... The lifting shaft 21 is mounted on the support plate 111 via the bearing seat 24, and the lifting gear 23 is sleeved on the lifting shaft 21. One end of the chain 25 is connected to the lifting gear 23, and the other end of the chain 25 is connected to the sliding block 13. The lifting motor 22 is located on the outer wall of one side of the support plate 111. One end of the lifting shaft 21 extends through the bearing seat 24 to the outside and is connected to the output end of the lifting motor 22 via a coupling. The horizontal moving component 3 includes a guide rail picking trolley 31, which is installed parallel to the picking horizontal plate 15. The controller 4 is wirelessly connected to the control main board inside the guide rail picking trolley 31 via wireless transmission. The barcode on the outer wall of the goods corresponds one-to-one with the warehouse picking QR code.
[0030] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the lifting motor 22 is electrically connected to the controller 4 through a wire. The controller 4 controls the lifting motor 22. The picking lifting assembly 2 is responsible for vertical movement. According to the picking speed, it raises or lowers the guide rail picking trolley 31 to a suitable position for picking operation. It includes components such as lifting shaft 21, lifting motor 22, and lifting gear 23. The lifting movement is achieved by the chain 25 cooperating with the lifting gear 23 and the lifting motor 22.
[0031] When lifting is required, the controller 4 controls the lifting motor 22 to work. When the lifting motor 22 rotates, it drives the lifting gear 23 on the lifting shaft 21 to rotate. At the same time as the lifting gear 23 rotates, it drives the chain 25 to wrap around the lifting gear 23. When the chain 25 moves, it pulls the bottom sliding block 13 to slide. At the same time as the sliding block 13 slides, it drives the guide rail trolley 31 on the picking horizontal plate 15 to reach the height of the goods. The picking speed is fast and the operation is simple, realizing unmanned warehouse management.
[0032] Furthermore, the horizontal movement component 3 is responsible for moving goods horizontally on the shelf, enabling them to accurately reach the designated picking location. The guide rail of the guide rail picking trolley 31 is installed on the picking horizontal plate 15 to guide the movement direction of the trolley. The trolley motor provides power to move it along the guide rail. The control motherboard receives instructions from the warehouse management system (WMS) or logistics control system and controls the movement of the trolley according to the preset program. The control motherboard receives picking instructions from the warehouse management controller system, including information such as the target location and the type of goods. The trolley detects its own position through the sensing device and moves to the target location along the preset guide rail. After reaching the target location, the picking device performs the operation of grabbing and transporting goods. After completing the picking, the trolley can return to the initial position or move to the next task location according to the instructions. By integrating advanced sensing technology, control technology, and drive technology, autonomous navigation and precise operation in complex environments are realized, greatly improving the efficiency and accuracy of logistics warehousing.
[0033] When goods need to be retrieved, the scanner scans the QR code of the item to be retrieved. This code matches the QR code of the goods stored in the controller. The controller then sends a signal to the corresponding goods alarm. The alarm receives and processes the signal, triggering an alarm on the corresponding shelf to quickly locate the goods. When lifting is required, the controller 4 controls the lifting motor 22. The rotation of the lifting motor 22 drives the lifting gear 23 on the lifting shaft 21. Simultaneously, the rotation of the lifting gear 23 causes the chain 25 to wind around it. As the chain 25 moves, it pulls the bottom sliding block 13, causing it to slide. Simultaneously, the sliding block 13 moves the retrieval trolley 31 on the guide rail of the retrieval platform 15 to the desired height. The control motherboard of the picking trolley 31 receives instructions from the warehouse management system (WMS) or logistics control system and controls the movement of the trolley according to the preset program. The control motherboard receives picking instructions from the warehouse management controller system, including information such as target location and goods type. The trolley detects its own position through the sensing device and moves to the target position along the preset guide rail. After reaching the target position, the goods pusher pushes the goods onto the picking trolley 31 on the guide rail. After picking up the goods, the trolley can return to the initial position or move to the next task location according to the instructions. By integrating advanced sensing technology, control technology and drive technology, autonomous navigation and precise operation in complex environments are realized, which greatly improves the efficiency and accuracy of logistics warehousing.
[0034] The working process of this utility model:
[0035] In use, when goods need to be retrieved, the scanner scans the QR code of the goods to be retrieved. This code matches the QR code of the goods stored in the controller. The controller then sends a signal to the corresponding goods alarm. The goods alarm receives and processes the signal, triggering an alarm on the corresponding shelf to quickly locate the goods. When lifting is required, the controller 4 controls the lifting motor 22 to operate. When the lifting motor 22 rotates, it drives the lifting gear 23 on the lifting shaft 21 to rotate. As the lifting gear 23 rotates, it drives the chain 25 to wind around the lifting gear 23. When the chain 25 moves, it pulls the bottom sliding block 13 to slide. As the sliding block 13 slides, it drives the retrieval trolley 31 on the guide rail of the retrieval horizontal plate 15 to reach the height of the goods. The control motherboard of the guide rail retrieval trolley 31 receives instructions from the warehouse management system (WMS) or logistics control system and controls the movement of the trolley according to the preset program. The control motherboard receives retrieval instructions from the warehouse management controller system, including information such as target location and goods type. The trolley detects its own position through the sensing device and moves to the target position along the preset guide rail. After reaching the target position, the pusher pushes the goods onto the guide rail retrieval trolley 31. After completing the retrieval, the trolley can return to the initial position or move to the next task location according to the instructions. By integrating advanced sensing technology, control technology and drive technology, autonomous navigation and precise operation in complex environments are realized, which greatly improves the efficiency and accuracy of logistics warehousing.
