Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cargo sorting technology, and in particular to an automatic picking robot. Background Technology

[0002] In today's highly automated warehousing and logistics system, the accurate reading and processing of cargo identification information is a key link in achieving efficient sorting and intelligent warehouse management. Cargo identification contains important information such as product name, specifications, batch, and inventory location. Automated warehousing systems rely on this information for accurate cargo tracking, inventory counting, and order processing. As the scale of warehousing and logistics continues to expand, the demand for rapid and accurate identification of cargo identification information is becoming increasingly urgent. This requires automated picking equipment to ensure that cargo identification is in an easily identifiable direction when handling and placing goods.

[0003] However, most automated picking equipment on the market currently lacks the function of adjusting the orientation of goods labels. In actual operation, the placement of goods in the storage area is often random. When these devices move goods to the target location, they cannot guarantee that the goods labels are facing the scanning equipment or operators. This leads to reduced sorting efficiency in the goods sorting process because the scanning equipment cannot quickly identify the label information. In the inbound and outbound operations, people need to spend extra time and effort to adjust the orientation of goods, which increases the complexity of the operation process and the probability of errors. In addition, for some enterprises that rely on automated information systems for inventory management, the uncontrollability of goods label orientation may also cause errors in inventory data recording, affecting the accuracy and reliability of the entire warehousing and logistics system.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new automated picking robot to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0016] Addressing the challenge of traditional equipment being unable to adjust the orientation of cargo labels, this robot utilizes a precise control mechanism that links label detectors, turntables, and motors to automatically align cargo labels with the scanning equipment or operator. This significantly reduces issues such as information reading failures and data entry errors caused by incorrect cargo label orientation, ensuring that the warehousing and logistics system can quickly and accurately acquire cargo information. This improves the accuracy and reliability of inventory management, order sorting, and other processes, providing strong support for enterprises to achieve intelligent warehouse management.

[0017] Reduce labor costs:

[0018] The application of this automated picking robot reduces reliance on manual picking, lowers the cost of recruitment, training and management for enterprises, and reduces mispicking and omissions in the efficient and accurate operation mode, thus reducing economic losses caused by errors. In the long run, it can effectively improve the economic efficiency of enterprises, optimize the allocation of enterprise resources, and create favorable conditions for the sustainable development of enterprises.

[0026] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0027] Please see Figures 1 to 5An automated picking robot includes: an industrial robot body 1; multiple storage pallets 2 are equidistantly mounted on one side of the industrial robot body 1; a loading pallet 3 is provided on the other side of the industrial robot body; a turntable 4 is rotatably connected to the upper surface of the loading pallet 3; support plates 5 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the top of the loading pallet 3; sliding plates 6 are slidably connected to the top of each support plate 5; clamping plates 7 are installed on the opposite sides of each of the two sliding plates 6; and a first motor 8 is fixedly connected inside the loading pallet 3. A worm gear 9 is fixedly connected to the output end. A worm wheel 10 is rotatably connected inside the cargo plate 3. The worm wheel 10 meshes with the worm gear 9. The upper surface of the worm wheel 10 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the turntable 4. A horizontal plate 11 is fixedly connected to the top of the two support plates 5. A marking detector 12 is fixedly connected to the side of the horizontal plate 11 near the cargo plate 3. A conveyor belt 20 is installed on the top of the storage plate 2. A fourth motor 21 is fixedly connected inside the storage plate 2. The output end of the fourth motor 21 is fixed to the axis of one shaft of the conveyor belt 20.

[0028] It should be noted that the label detector 12 can detect whether there is a label on the side of the goods facing the label detector 12. When used in conjunction with the turntable 4, the label of the goods is always facing outward when the goods are placed, ensuring that the label of the goods is in an easily identifiable direction.

[0029] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 5 One of the two support plates 5 is rotatably connected to a first threaded rod 13, and the other support plate 5 is fixedly connected to a first guide rod 14. The support plate 5 away from the first guide rod 14 is fixedly connected to a second motor 15. The output end of the second motor 15 is fixedly connected to the first threaded rod 13. The bottom of each of the two sliding plates 6 is fixedly connected to a slider 16. One of the two sliders 16 is threadedly connected to the first threaded rod 13, and the other slider 16 is slidably connected to the first guide rod 14.

[0030] It should be noted that the second motor 15 drives the clamping block to move along the direction of approaching or moving away from the storage plate 2 via the first threaded rod 13.

[0031] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 5 A second guide rod 17 is fixedly connected between the two sliding plates 6, and a bidirectional threaded rod 18 is rotatably connected between the two sliding plates 6. The two ends of the second guide rod 17 are slidably connected to the two clamping plates 7 respectively, and the two ends of the bidirectional threaded rod 18 are threadedly connected to the two clamping plates 7 respectively. A third motor 19 is fixedly connected inside one of the two sliding plates 6, and the output end of the third motor 19 is fixedly connected to the bidirectional threaded rod 18.

[0032] It should be noted that the third motor 19 controls the two clamping blocks to move closer or further apart via the bidirectional threaded rod 18.

[0033] The working principle of the automatic picking robot provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0034] Retrieve goods from inventory pallet 2:

[0035] When the system issues a picking instruction, the automated picking robot begins to perform the picking operation. First, the fourth motor 21 inside the storage pallet 2 starts. The output shaft of the fourth motor 21 is fixed to the axis of one shaft of the conveyor belt 20. Driven by the fourth motor 21, the conveyor belt 20 begins to rotate counterclockwise. The conveyor belt 20 acts as an efficient transportation channel, smoothly transporting the goods in the storage pallet 2 to one end of the storage pallet 2, completing the initial transfer of goods.

[0036] Next, the second motor 15 located inside the support plate 5 starts. The output end of the second motor 15 is fixedly connected to the first threaded rod 13. As the second motor 15 runs, the first threaded rod 13 begins to rotate. The slider 16, which is threadedly connected to the first threaded rod 13, moves towards the storage plate 2 under the action of threaded transmission. The slider 16 drives the sliding plate 6 to move together. At this time, the sliding plate 6 drives another sliding plate 6 to slide along the axial direction of the first guide rod 14 through the bidirectional threaded rod 18 and the second guide rod 17, so that the two sliding plates 6 gradually approach the storage plate 2 and send the clamping plate 7 to the vicinity of the goods.

[0037] Subsequently, the third motor 19 inside the sliding plate 6 starts. The output end of the third motor 19 is fixedly connected to the bidirectional threaded rod 18. The third motor 19 drives the bidirectional threaded rod 18 to rotate. Since the threads at both ends of the bidirectional threaded rod 18 are in opposite directions, under the action of thread transmission, the two clamping plates 7 move closer to each other along the axial direction of the second guide rod 17, accurately clamping the goods. After the clamping plates 7 firmly clamp the goods, the second motor 15 starts again, driving the first threaded rod 13 to rotate in the opposite direction, causing the slider 16 to move towards the cargo plate 3, thereby moving the clamping plate 7 holding the goods onto the turntable 4 on the upper surface of the cargo plate 3, completing the transfer of goods from the storage plate 2 to the cargo plate 3.

[0038] Rotating cargo:

[0039] After the goods are placed on the turntable 4, the marking detector 12 on the side of the horizontal plate 11 near the cargo plate 3 starts to work. The marking detector 12 uses scanning technology to detect the side of the goods near the marking detector 12 and determine whether there is a goods marking on that side.

[0040] If no marking is detected on this side, the third motor 19 inside the sliding plate 6 will rotate in the opposite direction. The third motor 19 drives the bidirectional threaded rod 18 to rotate in the opposite direction, causing the two clamping plates 7 to move away from each other and release the clamping of the goods. At this time, the first motor 8 inside the cargo plate 3 starts, and the worm 9 fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 8 starts to rotate. The worm 9 is meshed with the worm wheel 10. Under the drive of the worm 9, the worm wheel 10 starts to rotate. Since the upper surface of the worm wheel 10 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the turntable 4, the rotation of the worm wheel 10 drives the turntable 4 to rotate, and the rotation angle of the turntable 4 is fixed at 90° each time.

[0041] After the turntable 4 rotates 90°, the label detector 12 scans the goods again. If the label is still not detected, the above operation is repeated, that is, the third motor 19 rotates in the opposite direction to release the clamp, and the first motor 8 drives the turntable 4 to rotate 90° again until the side of the goods carrying the label is aligned with the label detector 12, thus completing the adjustment of the goods label direction.

[0042] Place goods:

[0043] After the cargo marking direction is adjusted, the third motor 19 inside the sliding plate 6 rotates in the forward direction, driving the two clamping blocks to move closer to each other through the bidirectional threaded rod 18, and firmly clamping the cargo again. Then, the second motor 15 starts, driving the slider 16 to move away from the storage plate 2 through the first threaded rod 13. The slider 16 drives the sliding plate 6 to move in the same direction, so that the sliding plate 6 extends out of the loading plate 3 and transports the cargo to the target position.

[0044] Once the goods reach the target position, the third motor 19 rotates in the opposite direction, driving the bidirectional threaded rod 18 to rotate in the opposite direction, causing the two clamping plates 7 to move away from each other, releasing the clamping of the goods, and accurately placing the goods in the target position. Finally, the second motor 15 drives the slider 16 to retract through the first threaded rod 13, and the sliding plate 6 and clamping plate 7 also retract, completing a complete goods placement operation.

Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
