[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2This embodiment discloses a material management system, including a material cabinet 100, a main control module 200, a human-machine interaction module 300, and an identification code reading module 400. The material cabinet 100 is provided with multiple storage compartments 110, and each storage compartment 110 is equipped with an electrically controlled door 120 at its front end. The electrically controlled door 120 can be a cabinet door equipped with an electromagnetic lock or a cabinet door controlled by a relay. The main control module 200 is electrically connected to the electrically controlled door 120, and the main control module 200 can control the opening of the electrically controlled door 120 of the corresponding storage compartment 110 as needed, thereby facilitating the storage or retrieval of materials. The human-machine interaction module 300 is electrically connected to the main control module 200. The human-machine interaction module 300 can be a touch screen display or a combination of a keyboard, mouse, and ordinary display screen. The system includes a formula management unit 310 and a warehouse location display and control unit 320. Both the formula management unit 310 and the warehouse location display and control unit 320 are electrically connected to the electrically controlled warehouse door 120 through the main control module 200. The formula management unit 310 allows users to select the process formula to be produced from a preset formula list and automatically opens the electrically controlled warehouse door 120 according to the operating logic set by the process formula. The identification code reading module 400 is electrically connected to the main control module 200 and is electrically connected to the electrically controlled warehouse door 120 and the human-machine interaction module 300 through the main control module 200. The identification code reading module 400 is used to read the identification code of the material and control the corresponding electrically controlled warehouse door 120 to open according to the preset correspondence between the material and the warehouse location 110. The identification code reading module 400 adopts a barcode scanner or a QR code scanner.
[0032] In use, users can automatically open the electrically controlled door 120 of the corresponding compartment 110 through the formula management unit 310 of the human-machine interaction module 300, or individually control the electrically controlled door 120 of the corresponding compartment 110 through the compartment display and control unit 320. They can also identify the corresponding material through the identification code reading module 400, and control the electrically controlled door 120 of the corresponding compartment 110 according to the material's identification code, thereby realizing intelligent control of the electrically controlled door 120, which helps to improve the reliability of material handling.
[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3 In some application examples, a material detection sensor 130 is installed in the hopper 110. The material detection sensor 130 is electrically connected to the main control module 200. The material detection sensor 130 adopts an infrared sensor or a photoelectric sensor. When material is put into the hopper 110, the material triggers the material detection sensor 130, so that the material detection sensor 130 sends a trigger signal to the main control module 200, thereby enabling the main control module 200 to detect whether there is material stored in the hopper 110.
[0034] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 3In other application examples, the side wall of the storage compartment 110 is provided with a slide rail 140, which is arranged along the front-to-back direction of the storage compartment 110. The material detection sensor 130 is slidably mounted on the slide rail 140. In practical applications, the material cabinet 100 is a reusable cabinet, but the materials stored in the cabinet can be determined according to actual application requirements. For example, the materials can be in powder, granular, or liquid form. The detection position of the material detection sensor 130 needs to be adaptively adjusted according to the size of the material and its storage location. Therefore, by providing the slide rail 140 in the storage compartment 110 and slidably mounting the material detection sensor 130 on the slide rail 140, the position of the material detection sensor 130 can be adaptively adjusted according to different storage compartments 110, which is convenient for maintenance.
[0035] The storage compartment 110 contains movable containers for storing materials. These containers can be stored inside or removed from the compartment 110 for convenient material storage. In some application examples, the containers are equipped with identification codes. The identification code reading module 400 can read these codes to bind the containers to the compartment 110, facilitating unified management of the compartment 110, containers, and materials, and reducing the likelihood of errors in material storage and retrieval.
[0036] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The main control module 200 is also connected to a weighing module 500, which is used to weigh materials. For example, before storing materials, the weighing module 500 weighs the materials and transmits the weighing result to the main control module 200. For another example, when a user needs to produce according to a certain formula process, the electrically controlled compartment door 120 automatically opens according to the operating logic set in the process formula. The user takes out materials from the corresponding compartment 110 and weighs the preset weight of materials according to the weight set in the process formula through the weighing module 500. Then, the remaining materials are stored back in the corresponding compartment 110. This can ensure that the materials are retrieved accurately and that the weight of the materials used meets the requirements of the process formula, which is conducive to improving the level of intelligence in production.
[0037] The main control module 200 is also electrically connected to one or more peripheral working modules. These peripheral working modules can be configured according to the user's production needs. For example, please refer to... Figure 2The peripheral working modules include at least one of an oven module 610, a grinding module 620, and a printing module 630. The oven module 610 is used to dry materials. It is electrically connected to the main control module 200, which can intelligently manage the oven module 610, such as setting a timer for the oven's operation. The grinding module 620 grinds materials, and the printing module 630 prints identification codes on the materials. For example, when a preset weight of material is taken from the storage compartment 110, the printing module 630 prints the material's identification code and affixes it to the weighed material. This identifies the material, preventing confusion in subsequent processes. Furthermore, the identification code can be read in subsequent processes to achieve material traceability and tracking management.
[0038] Please refer to Figure 2 A monitoring module 700 is installed on the material cabinet 100. The detection end of the monitoring module 700 faces the electrically controlled door 120, and the monitoring module 700 is electrically connected to the main control module 200. In some application examples, the monitoring module 700 can perform image analysis on the opening and closing of the cabinet door to determine its open or closed status through image detection, which helps improve the security of material management. In other application examples, the monitoring module 700 can provide video monitoring of the material handling process for subsequent review, further enhancing the security of material management.
[0039] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
