[0024] Currently, after materials are unloaded from the loading dock and transferred to the receiving point within the supply chain logistics warehouse, employees at the receiving point need to manually scan the pallets of materials using PDAs to upload information, manually verify the quantity of the material boxes, manually measure the volume of the pallets with a measuring tape, and manually use forklifts to transport the pallets to the weighbridge for weighing. Because the specifications, types, and stacking heights of the boxes for each pallet of material entering the warehouse are inconsistent, the offline material receiving and inventory process is cumbersome and consumes significant labor and time costs.

[0025] This utility model proposes an inbound inspection device 100 to solve the above problems.

[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 3In one embodiment of this utility model, the inbound inspection device includes a gantry 1, a barcode scanning component 2, and a size measuring component. The gantry 1 has an inner inspection area 3. The barcode scanning component 2 is located on the gantry 1 and is used to acquire the barcode information of the goods to be inbound in the inspection area 3. The size measuring component is located on the gantry 1 and is used to acquire the size information of the goods to be inbound in the inspection area 3.

[0027] In the above embodiments, the gantry 1 is configured as follows: Figure 1 The inverted U-shaped gantry 1 structure is installed on the inbound passage, and its enclosed space allows for the passage of goods to be stored. Before the goods are stored, information about the goods needs to be checked in the detection area 3 formed inside the gantry. Specifically, multiple barcodes are usually affixed to the side wall of the goods to be stored. The barcode information generally includes the production date and place of origin of the goods. The barcode scanning component 2 can read the corresponding barcodes to obtain the relevant information of the goods and simultaneously record the entry time of the goods, making it easier to find the corresponding storage location. In addition, in practice, a warehouse may need to store various types of goods of different specifications. In order to better utilize the storage space and store as many goods as possible, the size measurement component is usually used to measure the specific size of the goods. This ensures that each batch of goods fills the corresponding storage area of ​​the warehouse as much as possible, thereby improving the storage efficiency of the entire warehouse system.

[0028] As can be seen, the structure in the above embodiments is designed to automatically extract relevant information about the goods to be received through multiple detection structures on the gantry 1. During use, this structure only requires a small external force adjustment of the position of the goods to be received in the detection area 3 to acquire various information. Traditionally, the acquisition of this information is mostly done manually. For example, when reading barcodes, information is typically uploaded manually using a handheld PDA, the quantity of goods to be received is manually checked, and the dimensions of the goods are measured using a handheld measuring tape. This traditional pre-receiving inspection method is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and cannot effectively meet the needs of efficient production. The structure in this application can effectively replace manual acquisition of information about the goods to be received, not only reducing labor intensity but also meeting the requirements of efficient warehousing, and has good application prospects.

[0029] The gantry 1 includes two columns 11 and a crossbeam 12. Specifically, the gantry 1 includes two columns 11, which are arranged opposite each other on both sides of the detection area 3. Multiple barcode scanning components 2 are provided, each distributed on one of the two columns 11, with each column 11 having its multiple barcode scanning components spaced apart vertically. The goods actually being stored may be stacked vertically, so they have a certain vertical height. The multiple sets of barcode scanning components 2 spaced apart vertically effectively meet the requirement of simultaneously scanning and storing multiple goods. Furthermore, by placing the two columns 11 on both sides of the detection area 3, the barcode can be on any side wall of the goods in the horizontal direction. When scanning, if the goods rotate two 90-degree angles around the vertical axis, some of the multiple barcode scanning components 2 will definitely be able to acquire the barcode information on the side walls of the goods. This will maximize scanning efficiency and minimize missed scans.

[0030] It should also be noted that both the column 11 and the crossbeam 12 are welded together from multiple metal profiles. Specifically, the gantry 1 is welded together from multiple square tube profiles and steel plate structures, including a frame square tube 13, a frame front sealing plate 14, a frame side sealing plate 15, a frame electrical box front sealing plate 16, and a barcode scanning structure fixing plate 17, etc. The frame square tube 13 has a specification of 40mm. 40mm 1.2mm, material: SUS304 (stainless steel), welded into a U-shape; each sealing plate is made of 6mm steel plate and is firmly welded to the frame square tube 13. The overall height of this barcode scanning door frame is 3400mm, the overall width is 4600mm, and the internal net width is 3900mm. The equipment has a simple structure and is easy to install.

[0031] In one embodiment of this application, considering that the sizes and specifications of the goods to be stored in the same group of goods may be different, in order to accurately obtain the barcode information on multiple goods, it may be necessary to adjust the actual scanning angle of multiple sets of scanning components 2 during the actual production process. Therefore, in this embodiment, each structure in the scanning component 2 is set as an adjustable structure. Specifically, the scanning component 2 includes an illumination element 21 and a camera element 22. The camera element 22 is located on the side of the column 11 facing the detection area 3 for reading the barcode information of the goods to be stored. The illumination element 21 is located on the column 11 at intervals from the camera element 22 for providing auxiliary illumination to the detection area 3. The shooting angle of the camera element 22 on the column 11 is adjustable, and the illumination angle of the illumination element 21 on the column 11 can also be set to be adjustable.

[0032] Specifically, when scanning incoming goods, the multiple lighting elements 21 effectively enhance ambient brightness, preventing the camera element 22 from failing to effectively acquire the corresponding barcode information in a dimly lit environment. Furthermore, this structure enables good performance in various external environments.

[0033] The lighting element 21 includes a lighting base 212 and a light source 211. The lighting base 212 is mounted on the column 11 and has an open end corresponding to the detection area 3. The light source 211 is rotatably mounted inside the open end. Specifically, the lighting base 212 consists of two side plates and a base plate. The two side plates are respectively located at both ends of the base plate, forming a U-shaped fixed base structure. The open end is located at the opening of the U-shaped base. Multiple arc-shaped grooves 2121 with the same radius are formed around the same center on the ends of the two side plates away from the base plate. At least two mounting shafts 2111 are provided on the side wall of the light source component 211. Both mounting shafts 2111 are slidably installed in two of the arc-shaped groove structures 2121. When adjusting the light source component 211, moving the camera component 22 up and down can drive the light source component 211 to rotate a certain vertical tilt angle inside the opening end, thereby adjusting the illumination angle of the light source component 211.

[0034] Correspondingly, the camera component 22 includes a camera base 221 and a barcode scanner 222. The camera base 221 includes two mounting plates 2211 connected at their ends. One mounting plate 2211 is fixed to the column 11, and the barcode scanner 222 is mounted on the other mounting plate 2211. The included angle between the two mounting plates 2211 is adjustable. Specifically, during barcode scanning, the shooting angle of the barcode scanner 222 on the camera base 221 can be adjusted to achieve efficient scanning of barcode information.

[0035] Specifically, the barcode scanner 222 has a resolution of 20 megapixels, is driven and controlled by a host computer, and, in conjunction with the light source 211, can effectively read various barcode formats, including 1D and 2D codes, with a maximum reading speed of 60 codes per second. It supports codes with a size of 1200mm². 1200mm The barcodes on the outer surface of all the entire board of materials within 2500mm are read and uploaded. The scanning component 2 has seven sets on each of the two columns 11. The specific barcode reading process is as follows: Fourteen light sources 211 on the scanning mechanism fixing plates on both sides of the detection area 3 are simultaneously activated to illuminate the barcodes in the width direction of the entire board of materials to be stored on the transfer device. Fourteen scanning cameras 222 on the left and right sides of the detection area 3 are simultaneously activated to read and upload the barcodes in the width direction of the entire board of materials. After reading, a completion signal is sent to the transfer device. Upon receiving the instruction, the transfer device rotates the lifted entire board of materials 90 degrees clockwise at the waiting point. After the transfer device completes the rotation, a rotation completion signal is sent to the light sources 211 and the scanning cameras 222. Subsequently, multiple light sources 211 and multiple scanning cameras 222 repeat the above scanning action to complete the reading and uploading of barcode information in the length direction of the entire board of materials. When the transfer device receives the relevant information, the transfer device waits in the current detection area 3, and the entire inbound detection equipment 100 waits to enter the whole plate material volume information reading stage.

[0036] Specifically, the size measurement component includes a volume measurement component 4, which includes a horizontal distance detection component 41 and a height measurement component 42. The horizontal distance detection component 41 is used to obtain the length and width values ​​of the goods to be stored, and the height measurement component 42 is used to obtain the height value of the goods to be stored.

[0037] The horizontal distance detection component 41 includes a length measuring component 411 and a width measuring component 412. The length measuring component 411 includes two first distance measuring elements, which are disposed on the two columns 11 in the same horizontal direction. The width measuring component 412 includes two second distance measuring elements, which are disposed below the two first distance measuring elements in the same horizontal direction.

[0038] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 The height measuring device 42 shown includes a third ranging element, which is positioned above the detection area 3 on the top beam. Specifically, four third ranging elements are evenly spaced along the same circular path.

[0039] In actual inspection of incoming materials, when the transfer device enters the whole-plate material volume information reading stage and has entered the waiting state at the inspection area 3, the two distance measuring elements on the two columns 11 start working and read the whole-plate material length data L1. At this time, the equipment sends a width information reading completion signal to the transfer device. After receiving the whole-plate material width information reading completion signal, the transfer device lifts the whole-plate material and rotates it clockwise 90 degrees in place. After the rotation is completed, the second distance measuring element starts working and reads the whole-plate material width data W1. At this time, the equipment sends a length information reading completion signal to the transfer device. After receiving the whole-plate material width information reading completion signal, the transfer device lifts the whole-plate material and rotates it clockwise 270 degrees in place. While the transfer device lifts the material and rotates, the four third distance measuring elements on the same circumference start working continuously to measure distance. After the transfer device completes the rotation, the gantry 1 system retains the highest value H1 of the measured data. Since the transfer devices are of the same model and the overall height H2 of the transfer device after its lifting surface is lifted is a constant value, the equipment system calculates using the formula: V=L1. W1 (H1-H2) Finally, the volume V1 of the entire board of material entering the warehouse is obtained, realizing unmanned measurement and reading of the volume of the entire board of material.

[0040] In the above embodiments, the first ranging element, the second ranging element, and the third ranging element are all configured as laser ranging elements. In practical use, high-efficiency measurement can be achieved through laser technology. The dimensions of the first, second, and third ranging elements are all 48mm. 42mm Each laser ranging beam is 18mm thick and fixed to the gantry 1 by a 2mm thick stainless steel L-shaped support sheet metal. The measuring range of each laser ranging beam is adjustable from 0.05m to 80m, the ranging accuracy is ≤1mm, the single measurement time is 0.05s to 1s, and it supports RS232 and RS485 serial port communication.

[0041] In one embodiment of this application, the inbound inspection device 100 further includes a weighing element 5, which is located at the bottom of the gantry 1 corresponding to the inspection area 3, for obtaining the overall weight of the goods to be inbound. Specifically, the weighing element 5 is configured as a weighbridge with a volume of 1500 mm². 1500mm 200mm, supports real-time measurement and uploading of the weight information of a whole plate of material from 0kg to 1500kg, RS232 and RS485 serial communication, weighing accuracy <0.1kg, sunken and installed directly below the center of the detection area 3 with its surface flush with the ground, the positioning address code of the transfer device is affixed at the center of the surface, so that the transfer device can lift the whole plate of material to the position for accurate positioning, weight measurement and uploading.

[0042] It should be noted that when the weighing element 5, the barcode scanning component 2, and the volume measurement component 4 are inspecting goods, the inspection process can be carried out simultaneously during the operation of the transfer device, without having to wait for one inspection process to finish before starting another. This maximizes the testing efficiency of the entire device.

[0043] In one embodiment of this application, the inbound inspection device 100 further includes an electrical control box 6, which comprises a box body 61, a touch screen display 62, and a button structure 63. The touch screen display 62 is mounted on the box body 61 and displays various information about goods to be moved into the warehouse. The button structure 63 includes a start / stop button and an emergency stop button, both of which are located on the box body 61. The touch screen display 62 is designed on the upper surface of the box body 61 to facilitate real-time monitoring of the equipment's operating status by staff, and the evenly distributed buttons facilitate operation by staff.

[0044] This utility model also proposes an inbound system, which includes an inbound inspection device 100. The relevant structure of the inbound inspection device 100 is as described in the relevant contents of the above embodiments. Since the inbound inspection device 100 includes all the technical solutions in the above embodiments, it has at least all of the beneficial effects in the above embodiments, and will not be described in detail here.

[0045] The warehousing system also includes a transfer device, which includes a moving part and a receiving part. The receiving part is located on the moving part and is used to receive the goods to be warehoused. The receiving part can rotate along an axis extending in the vertical direction and has a vertical movement stroke. The moving part is used to transfer the goods to be warehoused to the detection area 3 for detection and warehousing processing.

[0046] Specifically, the transfer equipment is a stealthy AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle). Employing intelligent scanning, weighing, and volume measurement barcode scanning gate equipment, it can accommodate volumes up to 1200mm². 1200mm Intelligent inventory counting of all whole-plate materials within 2500mm not only improves the automation rate of the warehouse, but also ensures the material receiving cycle, thereby realizing unmanned material receiving management in the logistics warehouse.
