Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transport container technology, specifically to a material transport container for an AGV transport vehicle. Background Technology
[0002] In modern logistics and industrial production, AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles) have become key equipment in material handling due to their automation, efficiency, and flexibility. With the continuous expansion of logistics and production scale, more stringent requirements are being placed on the material transport containers carried by AGVs.
[0003] Traditional AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle) material handling containers are mostly designed as integrated or simply assembled structures. While integrated containers offer a certain level of strength, they lack flexibility when facing diverse material handling needs, failing to adjust their size and structure according to the material's dimensions, shape, and handling volume. Simply assembled containers typically employ rudimentary connection methods, such as relying solely on bolts and nuts or simple clips. Bolt-nut connections are prone to thread wear and stripping during frequent assembly and disassembly, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive but also affects the stability of the connection. Vibration during AGV operation can cause components to loosen, endangering material safety. Simple clip connections cannot withstand significant external impacts and are prone to separation when handling heavy or large materials, leading to material spillage and severely disrupting the continuity of production and logistics operations.
[0004] Furthermore, traditional transport containers lack auxiliary connection structures. When multiple transport containers are spliced together, it is difficult to guarantee the overall stability of the assembly, making relative displacement prone to occur during handling, further exacerbating the risks of material handling. In terms of ease of operation, existing transport containers lack efficient operating mechanisms for both assembly and disassembly. Operators often need to spend a lot of time and energy, which undoubtedly reduces the overall operating efficiency of AGV transport vehicles and increases labor costs.
[0005] In conclusion, developing a robust, detachable, and easy-to-operate AGV material handling container that can meet diverse material handling needs has become a crucial issue that urgently needs to be addressed in the current logistics and industrial production sectors. Utility Model Content
[0006] To address the aforementioned shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides an AGV material transport container.
[0007] This utility model provides the following technical solution: an AGV material transport box, including a base and a frame set on the base. The bottom of the base is provided with several sets of clips, and the top of the frame and the top of the base are provided with several sets of slots. The slots are provided with fasteners for locking the clips. The frame is detachably connected to the slots on the base through the clips, and one frame is detachably connected to the slots on another frame through the clips on its bottom.
[0008] Preferably, the frame has a connector on its side, and the connector includes a U-shaped metal frame hinged to the top of the side of the frame, and a protrusion at the bottom of the side of the frame. When the two frames are spliced, the U-shaped metal frame on the lower frame rotates upward and locks into the protrusion on the upper frame.
[0009] Preferably, the card includes a card block installed at the bottom of the base, and the two sides of the card block are designed to protrude. The bottom end of the card block is provided with an upwardly extending movable opening. The inner wall of the card slot is provided with an interface that engages with the protrusions on both sides of the card block, so that the card block is engaged inside the card slot through the protrusions on both sides.
[0010] Preferably, the fastener includes a movable fixing plate disposed inside the slot, a baffle for inserting into the movable opening is installed at the top of the fixing plate, an adjusting block extending from the frame is installed on the baffle, and a return spring is provided at the bottom of the fixing plate.
[0011] Preferably, the slot is provided with a magnetic block inside. When the magnetic block attracts the fixing plate, the baffle disengages from the movable opening of the card block.
[0012] Preferably, the slot has a stop block located below the card block. Under the action of the reset spring, the fixing plate contacts the stop block and inserts the stop block into the movable opening of the card block.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] The material transport container of this AGV transport vehicle features a detachable connection between the frame and the base, as well as between the frame and the base, via clips and slots. This allows the transport container to be flexibly assembled and disassembled according to actual material handling needs, facilitating transportation, storage, and combination adjustments based on different material sizes and quantities. This enhances the flexibility and versatility of the transport container.
[0015] The unique design of the clamps and the locking function of the fasteners ensure the stability of the connections between the various parts of the transport container. Even if the AGV transport vehicle encounters bumps or vibrations during its operation, it can prevent the components of the transport container from loosening or falling off, thus ensuring the safety of material transportation.
[0016] The connectors on the sides of the frame further enhance the stability when multiple frames are spliced together, preventing relative displacement of the spliced frames during handling. This ensures that the transport container remains stable even when loaded with a large amount of material or with a high center of gravity, thus improving the overall structural strength and reliability of the transport container.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In order to keep the following description of the embodiments of this disclosure clear and concise, detailed descriptions of known functions and known components are omitted to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of this utility model.
[0024] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 The AGV material transport container of this invention mainly consists of a base 1 and a frame 2. The base 1 serves as the basic support for the transport container, and its bottom is equipped with several sets of locking clips 3 for connection with the frame 2 and different transport containers. The frame 2 is mounted on the base 1, and both its top and the top of the base 1 have several sets of slots 4. These slots 4 engage with the locking clips 3, and fasteners 5 provide a locking mechanism, enabling a detachable connection between the frame 2 and the base 1, as well as between the frame 2 and the frame itself. This design allows the transport container to be flexibly assembled and disassembled according to actual needs during use, improving convenience and flexibility.
[0025] See Figure 4 and Figure 5 The locking component 3 includes a locking block 31 mounted on the bottom of the base 1. The locking block 31 has protruding sides, a unique shape designed for better engagement with the locking slot 4. The bottom end of the locking block 31 has an upward-extending movable opening 32, which is crucial for subsequent engagement with the fastener 5. During installation, the locking block 31 is directly fixed to the bottom of the base 1 to ensure stability and provide a foundation for the connection between the various parts of the transport container.
[0026] The fastener 5 includes a movable fixing plate 51 disposed inside the slot 4. The fixing plate 51 is capable of moving to a certain extent within the slot 4, and a baffle 52 for insertion into the movable opening 32 is mounted on its top. The size and shape of the baffle 52 are designed to match the movable opening 32 to achieve a tight fit.
[0027] An adjusting block 53 extending from the frame 2 is installed on the baffle 52. The positions of the fixed plate 51 and the baffle 52 can be controlled by operating the adjusting block 53. A return spring 54 is provided at the bottom of the fixed plate 51. The function of the return spring 54 is to keep the fixed plate 51 in a specific position when there is no external force, so as to ensure that the baffle 52 can be properly inserted into the movable opening 32 of the locking block 31.
[0028] When it is necessary to connect frame 2 to base 1 or two frames 2, insert the locking block 31 into the slot 4. Due to the protruding design on both sides of the locking block 31, it can initially lock into the interface inside the slot 4. At this time, under the action of the return spring 54, the fixing plate 51 contacts the stop 56, and the stop 52 is inserted into the movable opening 32 of the locking block 31. When the movable opening 32 is blocked, the protrusions on both sides of the locking block 31 cannot move or be removed from the slot 4, thereby locking the locking piece 3, completing the connection between the various parts of the transport box, and ensuring the stability of the connection.
[0029] When disassembly is required, the fixing plate 51 is moved upward against the elastic force of the return spring 54 by operating the adjusting block 53. At the same time, a magnetic block 55 is provided inside the slot 4. When the fixing plate 51 moves upward to a certain position, the magnetic block 55 attracts the fixing plate 51. At this time, the baffle 52 disengages from the movable opening 32 of the locking block 31, and the two sides of the locking block 31 can be squeezed inward through the movable opening 32, so that it can be removed from the slot 4, thus realizing the disassembly of the transport box.
[0030] The side of frame 2 is equipped with a connector 6, which includes a U-shaped metal frame 61 hinged to the top of the side of frame 2 and a protrusion 62 at the bottom of the side of frame 2. When two frames 2 need to be spliced, the U-shaped metal frame 61 on the lower frame 2 rotates upward and locks into the protrusion 62 on the upper frame 2. This design further enhances the stability when multiple frames 2 are spliced, preventing relative displacement between the frames 2 during handling. In practical use, the number of spliced frames 2 can be flexibly selected according to the volume and weight requirements of the materials being handled, and the connector 6 ensures that the overall structure after splicing is firm and reliable.
[0031] Through the above specific embodiments, the AGV material transport box of the present invention can achieve efficient and flexible assembly and disassembly, meet the material handling needs in different scenarios, and improve handling efficiency and ease of use of the transport box.
[0032] The above embodiments are merely exemplary embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit this utility model. The scope of protection of this utility model is defined by the claims. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or equivalent substitutions to this utility model within its substance and scope of protection, and such modifications or equivalent substitutions should also be considered to fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
