DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] The utility model will be further explained in detail in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0030] Embodiment one

[0031] As shown in the drawings, Figures 1-6 A kind of logistics storage bin, including bin body and first telescopic device, the inside of bin body is the space of storage express piece, bin body is equipped with opening, opening is slidably connected with bin door, bin door is fixedly connected with door lug, door lug is made of magnetic material, bin body is made of non-magnetic material;First telescopic device is connected with electromagnet and moves electromagnet by telescopic drive, the moving direction of electromagnet is parallel with the sliding direction of bin door, electromagnet can be through magnetic adsorption when being forward energized door lug, to drive bin door to slide when electromagnet moves.

[0032] The first telescopic device and the electromagnet can adopt existing products. The first telescopic device drives the electromagnet to move through the telescopic rod, and the electromagnet can drive the door to open and close, thereby realizing automatic opening and closing of the door. The present logistics storage bin can be used in combination with an existing operation control system. After a user completes picking, the user clicks an option of completing picking, and the first telescopic device receives an electric signal to perform a door closing operation. The door closing operation can adopt three modes: 1) the door is closed by the electromagnet; 2) the electromagnet is de-energized to release the door, and a reset door closing elastic member is arranged between the door and the bin body, and the door is reset and closed under the action of the elastic member; and 3) the electromagnet is reversely energized, the door ear is made of a permanent magnetic material that repels the electromagnet at this time, so that the door ear is completely separated from the electromagnet, and the door is reset and closed under the action of the elastic member.

[0033] An active space is left between the electromagnet and the first telescopic device, so that the electromagnet has a certain amount of slippage in a direction perpendicular to the door ear.

[0034] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 4-5 both sides of the opening are fixedly provided with hollow rods, the door is slidably connected to the hollow rods through sliding rods, the sliding rods extend into the hollow rods, the side wall of the hollow rod is provided with an avoidance slot for the door ear to extend out, the avoidance slot extends along the axis from one end of the hollow rod and does not reach the other end, the door ear slides out from one end of the avoidance slot when the door is opened, and the door ear is clamped at the other end of the avoidance slot when the door is closed. Through the avoidance slot, the door ear can smoothly slide and its sliding range to the other end can be limited.

[0035] In some embodiments, an elastic member is connected between the door and the bin body, and the elastic force of the elastic member on the door is in the closing direction. When the door is opened, the electromagnet attracts the door ear, and the telescopic rod of the first telescopic device extends to drive the door to open against the elastic force; when the door is closed, the electromagnet is de-energized, the electromagnet is separated from the door ear, the door is closed under the action of the elastic force, and then the telescopic rod of the first telescopic device is retracted to the original position, waiting for the next door opening.

[0036] In some embodiments, the elastic member is a spring.

[0037] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 7 a second telescopic device is further included, and the bottom of the bin body is provided with a pushing opening, and the second telescopic device is connected with a pushing plate capable of extending into the pushing opening. The pushing opening is in a strip shape, and the position of the second telescopic device is located outside the bottom of the bin body. The second telescopic device pushes the pushing plate into the bin body to push the express items out of the bin body, thereby facilitating picking. The size of the pushing opening is determined according to the size of the express items, and is smaller than the minimum size of the express items.

[0038] In some embodiments, as shown in Figures 2-3As shown, the first telescopic device is connected to an electromagnet via a positioning frame. The electromagnet is slidably connected to the inner wall of the positioning frame, and a permanent magnet is installed at the bottom of the positioning frame. When the electromagnet is energized in the reverse direction, the electromagnet and the permanent magnet are magnetically attracted. When the door is closed, the electromagnet is energized in the reverse direction, so that the electromagnet is attracted by the permanent magnet at the bottom of the positioning cabinet, thereby moving away from the door ear and preventing friction between the door and the door ear when the door is reset. In this embodiment, the door ear can also be made of permanent magnet material, in which case the electromagnet and the door ear will magnetically repel each other when the electromagnet is energized in the reverse direction.

[0039] In some embodiments, the door lugs are made of magnetic metal, and the housing is made of plastic. Making the housing of plastic reduces manufacturing costs and ensures that the electromagnet only attracts the door lugs without affecting the housing itself.

[0040] In some embodiments, the silo body has a cuboid structure.

[0041] In some embodiments, the first telescopic device and the second telescopic device are pneumatic cylinders, electric cylinders, or hydraulic cylinders.

[0042] Example 2

[0043] A logistics locker, employing a logistics storage compartment as described in Embodiment 1, includes a locker body and a conveying mechanism. Multiple compartments are distributed within the locker body, and the conveying mechanism moves the compartments. Each locker body has an inlet / outlet window, and a first telescopic device is installed at the inlet / outlet window. The conveying mechanism utilizes an existing rotary conveyor, which can move the required logistics storage compartments to the inlet / outlet window. The first telescopic device then opens the compartment door, enabling rapid storage and retrieval of express parcels.
