Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of storage rack technology, specifically a high-precision automated storage rack for three-dimensional warehouses. Background Technology

[0002] Automated storage and retrieval systems (AS / RS), also known as automated warehouses, enable high-level rationalization of warehouse operations, automated storage and retrieval, and simplified operation. The main components of an AS / RS consist of racking, aisle stacker cranes, inbound and outbound workstations, and an automated inbound and outbound control system. The racking is typically a steel or reinforced concrete structure containing standard-sized storage locations. The aisle stacker cranes move through the aisles between the racks to perform storage and retrieval operations.

[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN222646825U discloses a high-precision automated storage and retrieval system (AS / RS) rack, which includes a base plate. A transmission device is located at the top of the base plate, and a sliding device is located at the bottom of the transmission device. The sliding device includes a lead screw and two driven rods. Three equally spaced through slots are formed at the top of the base plate. Slider blocks are fitted onto the outer surfaces of the lead screw and the two driven rods. A base is fixedly connected to the top of the three sliders. Slide plates are fixedly connected to both ends of the base. Slide frames are slidably connected to the outer surfaces of the two slide plates. The bottom ends of the two slide frames are fixedly connected to the top of the base plate. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to the top of the base, and a platform is fixedly connected to the top of the connecting rod. This high-precision automated storage and retrieval system rack can effectively move freely within the rack and can quickly transport goods in and out.

[0004] However, the automated warehouse racking disclosed in the above patent still has certain shortcomings in actual use. Since each of its supports is fixedly installed, the spacing between adjacent placement frames on the upper and lower sides cannot be adjusted, making it inconvenient to classify and place goods of different heights. Furthermore, there is no structure inside the placement frames to fix the goods, so when the automated warehouse racking shakes, the placed goods are prone to falling due to the lack of a fixing structure, which can easily lead to economic losses. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a high-precision automated storage and retrieval system (AS / RS) racking system to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. These problems arise because the existing AS / RS racking systems have fixed supports, which prevents the adjustment of the spacing between adjacent placement frames on the upper and lower sides. This makes it inconvenient to classify and place goods of different heights. Furthermore, the lack of any structure within the placement frames for securing goods means that when the AS / RS racking system shakes, the placed goods are prone to falling due to the lack of a fixed structure, potentially leading to economic losses.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a high-precision automated storage rack, comprising a rack base, with uprights fixedly installed on both sides of the rack base. Multiple through slots are equidistantly arranged on the uprights along the vertical direction. Guide rods are fixedly installed between the upper and lower side walls of the slots. Multiple shelf plates are arranged vertically in the clamping cavities of the two uprights. Sliding blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the shelf plates. The sliding blocks on both sides of the shelf plates are slidably fitted onto the surfaces of the guide rods on both sides. Multiple fixing plates are fixedly installed equidistantly on one side wall of the uprights along the vertical direction. An electric push rod is fixedly installed on the top wall of the fixing plate. The top end of the piston rod of the electric push rod is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the sliding block. An automatic goods sensing and fixing mechanism is provided on the shelf plate.

[0007] Preferably, the automatic goods sensing and fixing mechanism includes multiple sensing zones equidistantly arranged on the top wall of the shelf in the horizontal direction, a pressure sensor is installed in the center of the sensing zone, and vertical plates are fixedly installed on both sides of the top wall of the shelf.

[0008] Preferably, the automatic goods sensing and fixing mechanism further includes multiple mounting seats fixedly installed on the bottom wall of the shelf plate. The mounting seats correspond one-to-one with the positions of the pressure sensors. The surface of the mounting seat is provided with a groove, and a bidirectional lead screw is rotatably connected between the two side walls of the groove cavity. Moving blocks are screwed onto the surfaces of both ends of the bidirectional lead screw.

[0009] Preferably, the automatic goods sensing and fixing mechanism further includes a motor connected to one end of the bidirectional lead screw, a U-shaped rod fixedly installed on one side wall of the moving block, a through hole in the plate of the vertical plate, and the rod of the U-shaped rod moving through the cavity of the through hole.

[0010] Preferably, the automatic goods sensing and fixing mechanism further includes clamping plates disposed on the top of both sides of the sensing area, and the clamping plates on both sides are respectively fixedly connected to the top ends of the U-shaped rods on both sides.

[0011] Preferably, two U-shaped rods are symmetrically arranged.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. This utility model, by setting through grooves, guide rods, and electric push rods on the upright plate, allows the adjustment of the spacing between adjacent shelf plates on the upper and lower sides. This is achieved by simply activating the electric push rods on both sides to move the sliding blocks up and down along the guide rods, thereby moving the shelf plates up and down and adjusting their spacing. This allows the storage rack to accommodate goods of different heights, improving its practicality.

[0014] 2. This utility model, by setting a sensing area and a pressure sensor on the shelf, allows the pressure sensor to receive a pressure signal when goods are placed in the sensing area. This triggers the motor to start, which in turn drives the bidirectional lead screw to rotate. This causes the moving blocks on the front and rear sides to move closer together, which in turn causes the U-shaped rods on the front and rear sides to move closer together. During the movement of the U-shaped rods, the clamping plates on both sides move towards the placed goods, thereby clamping and fixing the placed goods, keeping them stable, and preventing them from falling due to lack of a fixed structure when the storage rack shakes. This avoids economic losses caused by falling goods. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0020] 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.

[0021] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4This utility model provides a technical solution: a high-precision automated storage rack, including a rack base 1. Vertical plates 2 are welded to the top walls of both sides of the rack base 1. Multiple through slots 3 are equidistantly arranged on the plate body of the vertical plate 2 along the vertical direction. Guide rods 4 are welded between the upper and lower side walls of the slots 3. Multiple shelf plates 5 are arranged vertically in the cavity between two vertical plates 2. Sliding blocks 6 are welded to the left and right side walls of the shelf plates 5. The sliding blocks 6 on the left and right side walls of the shelf plates 5 are slidably fitted onto the surfaces of the guide rods 4 on the left and right sides, so that the shelf plates 5 can drive the sliding blocks 6 to move up and down along the guide rods 4. Multiple fixing plates 7 are welded equidistantly on the side wall of the vertical plate 2 away from the shelf plates 5 along the vertical direction. Electric push rods 8 are fixedly installed on the top wall of the fixing plates 7 by screws. The top end of the piston rod of the electric push rod 8 is welded to the bottom wall of the sliding block 6. An automatic goods sensing and fixing mechanism is provided on the shelf body of the shelf plate 5.

[0022] The automatic goods sensing and fixing mechanism includes multiple sensing zones 9 equidistantly arranged on the top wall of the shelf plate 5 along the horizontal direction. Pressure sensors 10 are installed in the center of the sensing zones 9. Vertical plates 11 are welded to the front and rear top walls of the shelf plate 5. The mechanism also includes multiple mounting seats 15 welded to the bottom wall of the shelf plate 5, with each mounting seat 15 corresponding to a pressure sensor 10. Grooves 16 are formed on the surface of the mounting seats 15. A bidirectional lead screw 17 is rotatably connected between the front and rear side walls of the groove 16 via bearings. Moving blocks 18 are screwed onto the surfaces of both ends of the bidirectional lead screw 17. The mechanism also includes a motor 19 connected to the rear end of the bidirectional lead screw 17, which is connected to the bidirectional lead screw 17 via a coupling. A U-shaped rod 14 is welded to the outer wall of the moving block 18, and the side wall furthest from the center of the two moving blocks 18 is the outer wall of the moving block 18. The vertical plate 11 has a through hole 13, through which the U-shaped rod 14 moves smoothly. The purpose of this is to facilitate the smooth back-and-forth movement of the U-shaped rod 14. The automatic goods sensing and fixing mechanism also includes clamping plates 12 located at the top of the front and rear sides of the sensing area 9. The clamping plates 12 on the front and rear sides are welded to the top ends of the U-shaped rods 14 on the front and rear sides, respectively. There are two U-shaped rods 14 symmetrically arranged.

[0023] In use, by setting through grooves 3, guide rods 4, and electric push rods 8 on the upright plate 2, when it is necessary to adjust the spacing between adjacent shelf plates 5 on the upper and lower sides, it is only necessary to start the electric push rods 8 on both sides to drive the sliding blocks 6 to move up and down along the guide rods 4, thereby driving the shelf plates 5 to move up and down, and thus adjusting the spacing. This allows the storage rack to hold goods of different heights, improving its practicality. By setting sensing areas 9 and pressure sensors 10 on the shelf plates 5, when goods are placed in sensing areas 9, the pressure sensors 10 receive pressure signals, thereby starting the motor 19. The motor 19 drives the bidirectional lead screw 17 to rotate, thereby causing the moving blocks 18 on the front and rear sides to move closer to each other. This causes the U-shaped rods 14 on the front and rear sides to move closer to each other. During the movement of the U-shaped rods 14, the clamping plates 12 on both sides move towards the placed goods, thereby clamping and fixing the placed goods, keeping the goods stable, and preventing the goods from falling due to lack of a fixed structure when the storage rack shakes, thus avoiding economic losses caused by falling goods.
