Detailed Implementation
[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0026] This utility model provides a three-dimensional storage system for cleaning racks. The system includes several support frames 1, which can be interconnected. Three transmission devices 2 are connected to the inner walls on both sides of each support frame 1. The transmission devices 2 are parallel to each other, and their transport direction is parallel to the support frame 1. The cleaning rack is placed on the transmission device 2, which transports it to the inner cavity of the support frame 1. Guide rods 3 are provided on the inner wall of each support frame 1, arranged in pairs on both sides of the transmission device 2, and parallel to the transmission device 2. During transport, the side walls of the cleaning rack abut against the guide rods 3, thus restricting the movement path of the cleaning rack. Furthermore, the support... An electrical frame 4 is also spliced to the side wall of the carrier frame 1. The electrical frame 4 is signal connected to each transmission device 2 inside the carrier frame 1. The electrical frame 4 can control the direction of transport of the transmission devices 2. That is, when storing the cleaning rack, the electrical frame 4 receives the storage signal sent by the staff, and then controls the transmission device 2 to move towards the inner cavity of the carrier frame 1, transporting the cleaning rack at the port of the carrier frame 1 into the inner cavity of the carrier frame 1, completing the storage of the cleaning rack. When taking out the cleaning rack, the staff sends a take-out signal to the electrical frame 4, and the electrical frame 4 controls the transmission device 2 to move towards the port side of the carrier frame 1. The cleaning rack placed inside the carrier frame 1 is carried out of the inner cavity of the carrier frame 1 by the transmission device 2, making it convenient to take out the cleaning rack.
[0027] Preferably, both the support frame 1 and the electrical frame 4 are detachable and assembleable, meaning the volume of the cleaning rack automated storage system is adjustable. In different usage scenarios, an appropriate number of cleaning racks can be spliced together according to the size of the installation site and the number of cleaning racks to be stored. The modular cleaning rack automated storage system can meet diverse needs.
[0028] Furthermore, the transmission device 2 includes several rotating rollers 21 and a transmission belt 22. The axes of each rotating roller are located on the same plane, and this plane is perpendicular to the height direction of the support frame 1. The two ends of each rotating roller 21 are rotatably connected to the side wall of the support frame 1. The rotation axis of the rotating roller 21 is perpendicular to the side wall of the support frame 1. A transmission belt 22 is provided around each rotating roller 21. The transmission belt 22 is in contact with the side wall of the rotating roller 21. When the rotating roller 21 is running, the side wall of the rotating roller 21 drives the transmission belt 22 to move through friction.
[0029] Please refer to the instruction manual appendix. Figure 2Photoelectric sensors 5 are installed on each guide rod 3, located at both ends of the guide rod 3. The photoelectric sensor 5 near the port of the support frame 1 is designated as the first photoelectric sensor, and the one located on the inner side of the support frame 1 is designated as the second photoelectric sensor. The photoelectric sensor 5 specifically consists of a receiver 52 and a transmitter 51, which are respectively located on two opposing guide rods 3. That is, two transmitters 51 are installed at both ends of one guide rod 3 of the transmission device 2, and two receivers 52 are installed at both ends of the other guide rod 3. The transmitter 51 transmits the light signal from one guide rod 3 to the opposite guide rod 3. The light signal passes through the top of the transmission device 2. When the light signal is transmitted to the top of the transmission device 2, the light is transmitted to the opposite guide rod 3. When the transmission cleaning rack is placed on the 2nd, the side wall of the cleaning rack blocks the light signal emitted by the first photoelectric sensor transmitter 51, and the corresponding receiver 52 cannot receive the light signal, while the second photoelectric sensor can receive the light signal normally. At this time, the status of the two sets of photoelectric sensors 5 can be used to identify that the cleaning rack is in the storage operation and determine that the cleaning rack is located at the port of the carrier frame 1. Furthermore, when the cleaning rack completes storage, the side wall of the cleaning rack blocks the light signals of the first photoelectric sensor and the second photoelectric sensor respectively. At this time, it is identified that the cleaning rack has entered the inner cavity of the carrier frame 1, and the status of the light signals received by the first and second photoelectric sensors can be used to identify whether the cleaning rack has been transported to the designated position.
[0030] Preferably, the guide rod 3 has a guide portion 31 on the side near the port of the support frame 1. The guide portion 31 of each guide rod 3 gradually narrows towards the side away from the transmission device 2, so that the guide rod 3 has a guide slope on both sides of the port of the support frame 1. At the same time, it also increases the accommodating size at the port of the support frame 1. When storing the cleaning rack, the side wall of the cleaning rack can abut against the slope of the guide portion 31, and the cleaning rack can slide along the guide portion 31 into the inner cavity of the support frame 1. The guide portion 31 makes the storage operation more convenient. Furthermore, an abutment portion 32 is provided at the end of the guide rod 3 away from the guide portion 31. The abutment portion 32 extends towards the side near the transmission device 2 and is perpendicular to the guide rod 3. When the cleaning rack is conveyed to the end of the transmission device 2, the end face of the cleaning rack abuts against the abutment portion 32. The abutment portion 32 limits the position of the cleaning rack and prevents the cleaning rack from going too deep into the inner cavity of the support frame 1 and colliding with the inner wall of the support frame, causing it to tilt at the end of the transmission device 2.
[0031] Please refer to the instruction manual appendix. Figure 1 To be continued Figure 3An electrical frame 4 is also connected to the support frame 1. The electrical frame 4 includes an electrical frame body 41 and an electrical box 43. The side wall of the electrical frame 4 is spliced with the side wall of the support frame 1. Two parallel slide rails 42 are provided on the inner walls of both sides of the electrical frame body 41. The slide rails 42 are parallel to the transmission device 2. The electrical box 43 is slidably mounted on the slide rails 42. When the electrical box 43 malfunctions, it can be pulled out of the inner cavity of the electrical frame 4 for easy maintenance. Furthermore, the electrical box 43 is electrically connected to each photoelectric sensor 5 and each transmission device 2. The operator can send a dispatch signal to the electrical box 43 to control the transmission direction of the transmission device 2. That is, when performing storage operations, the transmission device 2 is controlled to move towards the inner cavity of the support frame 1; when performing retrieval operations, the transmission direction is controlled to move towards the inner cavity of the support frame 1. The transmission device 2 moves towards the port of the support frame 1. After the electrical box 43 is connected to each photoelectric sensor 5, it receives the working status of each photoelectric sensor 5 and further adjusts the storage status of the cleaning rack. When the storage operation is performed and the transmission device 2 stops operating, if neither the first photoelectric sensor nor the second photoelectric sensor receives a light signal, it means that the cleaning rack has been stored in the designated position and the electrical box 43 does not perform any adjustment work. If the transmission device 2 stops operating and the second photoelectric sensor can still receive a light signal when storing the cleaning rack, it means that the transmission device 2 has not transported the cleaning rack to the designated position. At this time, the electrical box 43 controls the transmission device 2 to continue moving towards the inner cavity of the support frame 1, so that the side wall of the cleaning rack can block the light signal of the second photoelectric sensor. At this time, the cleaning rack is adjusted to the designated storage position.
[0032] In some embodiments, if the cleaning rack is not properly positioned during storage, during transport, one edge of the cleaning rack passes the second photoelectric sensor, blocking the light signal. Furthermore, the distance between the relative edges is greater than the length of the cleaning rack itself. When the light signal from the second photoelectric sensor is blocked, the light signal from the first photoelectric sensor is also blocked. In other words, the cleaning rack as a whole has not reached the designated position. However, the electrical box 43 recognizes that the cleaning rack has reached the designated position. Therefore, when the electrical box 43 detects that none of the photoelectric sensors 5 have received a light signal, it controls the transmission device 2 to continue operating for a period of time. The edge of the cleaning rack that first blocks the second photoelectric sensor abuts against the corresponding guide rod 3's contact part 32. One side of the cleaning rack stops moving, while the other side continues to move with the transmission device 2 until the other side of the cleaning rack abuts against the corresponding contact part 32. The electrical box 43 adjusts the setting state of the cleaning rack through the contact part 32 to prevent inaccurate docking with the cleaning rack when it is removed.
[0033] Please refer to the instruction manual appendix. Figure 4The electrical frame 4 and each support frame 1 are provided with several support bases 6 at their bottoms. Each support base 6 has a threaded section at its end, and the support base 6 is connected to the electrical frame 4 and the support frame 1 through the threaded section. The height of the electrical frame 4 and the support frame 1 can be adjusted by screwing on the support base 6. In some embodiments, the ground on which the cleaning rack storage is placed is uneven, and the support bases 6 at different positions can be adjusted to different heights to ensure that the cleaning rack storage can be stably set up. Sliding wheels 7 are also provided at the bottom of the electrical frame 4 and the support frame 1, and the sliding wheels 7 can assist in... To facilitate the movement of the automated cleaning rack warehouse, the electrical frame 4 and the support frame 1 are detachably connected to an end cap 8 on the side away from the sliding wheel 7. The joint between the end cap 8 and the electrical frame 4 and the support frame 1 is flush with the uppermost guide rod 3. That is, when the end cap 8 is removed, the number of transmission devices 2 remains unchanged, ensuring that the overall height of the automated cleaning rack warehouse is reduced while the number of support cleaning racks remains unchanged. At the same time, an appropriate number of support frames 1 can be spliced according to needs. The detachable end cap 8 makes the structure of the automated cleaning rack warehouse more compact, ensuring the applicability of the automated cleaning rack warehouse.
[0034] It should be noted that several snap-fit parts are provided on the side walls of both the electrical frame 4 and the support frame 1. Each snap-fit part can cooperate with each other to achieve a detachable connection between the electrical frame 4 and the support frame 1. Workers can assemble an appropriate number of support frames 1 as needed.
[0035] This application also provides a logistics system, which includes a logistics robot and the aforementioned automated storage and retrieval system for cleaning racks. It should be noted that the electrical box 43 can receive docking signals from the logistics robot, enabling the logistics robot to cooperate with the automated storage and retrieval system for cleaning racks. When storing cleaning racks, the logistics robot sends a storage signal to the electrical box 43, and the logistics robot docks with the corresponding transmission device 2. The electrical box 43 controls the transmission device 2 to move towards the side extending into the inner cavity of the support frame 1, and the cleaning rack is stored in the support frame 1 by the transmission device 2. When the cleaning rack blocks the light signals emitted by the photoelectric sensors 5 at both ends of the guide rod 3, the electrical box 43 receives the signals fed back by the photoelectric sensors 5, and after a period of time, controls the transmission device 2 to stop. Similarly, when the cleaning rack is removed, the logistics robot sends a removal signal and docks with the corresponding transmission device 2. After docking, the electrical box 43 controls the transmission device 2 to move towards the side closer to the port of the support frame 1, transporting the cleaning rack to the logistics robot. After the cleaning rack is moved away from the transmission device 2, the photoelectric sensors 5 at both ends of the guide rod 3 can receive light signals. The photoelectric sensors 5 feed back the information to the electrical box 43. The electrical box 43 recognizes that no cleaning rack is placed on the transmission device 2, and then controls the transmission device 2 to stop running. The logistics system provided in this application combines the logistics robot with the cleaning rack automated warehouse, making the storage and retrieval process more automated and efficient, while reducing labor costs.

[0037] This article uses specific examples to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this utility model. The descriptions of the above embodiments are only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from the principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
