Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of warehouse guidance equipment, specifically, it relates to a warehouse guidance device. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of the warehousing and logistics industry, the demand for intelligent and efficient warehouse management is increasing. Precise guidance of goods storage locations has become a core element in improving picking efficiency and reducing error rates. In current warehousing operations, traditional guidance methods mostly rely on electronic tags, displays, or projection devices to achieve basic positioning, but these methods have revealed multiple limitations in practical applications. These limitations are particularly prominent in dynamic and high-density modern warehousing scenarios.

[0003] Taking fixed-installation top displays and floor lighting as examples, their deployment costs are high and installation cycles are long—the cost of purchasing, installing, and wiring a single display can reach tens of thousands of yuan, and floor lighting needs to be embedded in the ground or have dedicated wiring laid, with construction cycles often measured in weeks. When warehouse layouts frequently change due to business adjustments (such as shelving reorganization caused by the addition of new product lines), seasonal inventory fluctuations (such as temporary addition of storage areas during e-commerce promotions), or the introduction of new business lines, equipment locations are difficult to adapt quickly. For example, when shelving is moved, the original display location may not match the new storage location, requiring replanning of wiring, dismantling of old equipment, and installation of new equipment. This process not only wastes resources but may also cause work interruptions and reduced efficiency. In addition, this type of rigid installation often requires damaging the original warehouse structure, such as opening holes in walls, cutting floors, or reinforcing ceilings, increasing the difficulty of modification and maintenance costs—for small and medium-sized warehousing enterprises, the high initial investment and subsequent adjustment costs become an unbearable burden, and they may even abandon layout optimization due to cost pressures, affecting long-term operational efficiency.

[0004] Based on this, the present invention proposes a warehouse guidance device to solve the problems existing in the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of this, the main objective of this utility model is to provide a warehouse guidance device to solve the problems of high deployment cost, long installation cycle, inconvenience of disassembly and relocation, and difficulty in modification and maintenance cost of existing guidance devices.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

[0007] A warehouse guidance device, detachably mounted on a shelf, includes a support base, which is detachably mounted to the outside of the shelf via a positioning element; and a mounting frame is provided on the side of the support base away from the shelf, a positioning block is slidably mounted on one side of the mounting frame, and a device frame is rotatably connected to one side of the positioning block, the device frame being compatible with a display or LED display screen.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the device rack has a mounting slot that matches the display or LED display screen, and a pressure strip is installed at the opening of the mounting slot.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the pressure strip is a flexible rubber component.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, transparent acrylic panels are installed in the openings on both the front and rear sides of the equipment rack.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the equipment frame is rotatably connected to the positioning block via a pin.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the inner sides of the two ear plates at the tail end of the equipment frame are provided with a plurality of damping protrusions arranged in a circular shape, and the damping protrusions are engaged with the damping grooves provided at the corresponding positions of the positioning blocks.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the positioning block is provided with a retaining strip, which is movably installed in a groove on the mounting frame.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, guide grooves are provided on both sides of the slide, and the guide grooves are connected to the positioning bolts to form a guide positioning structure.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment, the positioning pin is also connected to a corresponding screw hole provided on the card strip.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the support base is a plate-shaped structure with connecting holes at both its upper and lower ends, and the connecting holes are matched with the positioning components.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a warehouse guidance device, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. This equipment achieves rapid installation and disassembly with the racks through the plate structure of the support base and the detachable connection of the positioning parts, adapting to different rack specifications and reducing material costs; the height-adjustable design of the mounting frame, combined with the locking strip and sliding structure of the positioning block, allows the equipment to flexibly adapt to changes in rack levels or seasonal inventory adjustments, avoiding equipment waste caused by frequent changes in warehouse layout, and solving the problems of "high deployment costs and long adjustment cycles" of traditional technologies.

[0019] 2. This equipment achieves precise multi-angle adjustment and stable fixation by rotating the equipment frame with the positioning block via a pin shaft. This is achieved by engaging and locking the damping protrusion of the tail end ear plate with the damping groove of the positioning block. This meets the viewing angle requirements of complex scenarios such as narrow aisles and densely packed shelving areas. At the same time, the guide grooves on both sides of the slide chute cooperate with the screw holes of the positioning bolts and locking strips. By tightening the positioning bolts, a mechanical lock is formed, ensuring that the equipment remains stable after longitudinal height adjustment. This solves the limitations of traditional equipment that are "fixed viewing angle and prone to slippage".

[0020] 3. This device utilizes flexible rubber strips with mounting slot openings to protect the edges of the display or LED screen while standardizing cable layout through wire holes. The high light transmittance of the transparent acrylic panels on the front and back sides ensures clear transmission of directional information while preventing dust, liquid splashes, and impact damage, thus extending the device's lifespan. This solves the problems of high deployment costs, long installation cycles, inconvenient disassembly and relocation, and the difficulty and high maintenance costs associated with existing directional equipment.

[0030] The structure of the warehouse guidance device will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments of the present invention.

[0031] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0032] It should be noted that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments as described in this application. As used herein, the singular form is intended to include the plural form as well, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. Furthermore, it should be understood that when the terms "comprising" and / or "including" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components, and / or combinations thereof.

[0033] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of this application described herein can be implemented, for example, in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0035] As per the instruction manual Figures 1-6 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution:

[0036] A warehouse guidance device is detachably mounted on a shelf 1 and works with a display or LED screen to provide precise guidance for the storage and transfer of goods in the warehouse. The device includes a support base 2, which is detachably mounted to the outside of the shelf 1 via positioning components 7, allowing for flexible connection. An installation frame 3 is integrally formed on the side of the support base 2 away from the shelf 1. A positioning block 4 is slidably mounted on one side of the installation frame 3. By adjusting the fixed height of the positioning block 4 on the installation frame 3, the device can adapt to the installation requirements of different shelf levels. A device frame 5 is rotatably connected to one side of the positioning block 4. By adjusting the connection angle between the device frame 5 and the positioning block 4, the direction of the device frame 5 can be flexibly adjusted. This facilitates the acquisition of location information by recognition components such as cameras, and also clears passageways for personnel or goods during operations, improving the utilization rate of warehouse space.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the equipment rack 5 has a mounting slot 51, which is used in conjunction with a monitor or LED display screen to fix and install display components. The monitor can intuitively display key information such as shelf level, location number, goods type, and inventory status, while the LED display screen enhances visual guidance through dynamic arrows and color coding, helping operators quickly locate target locations. The directional adjustment function of the equipment rack 5, combined with the modular design of the mounting slot 51, allows the equipment to adapt to the dynamic adjustment needs of warehouse layout and meet the requirements of diverse guidance scenarios by replacing different specifications of display components, ultimately achieving low-cost, easy-to-deploy, and high-precision warehouse guidance.

[0038] Specifically, a pressure strip 52 is installed at the opening of the mounting slot 51 of the equipment rack 5. This pressure strip 52 is made of flexible rubber and can tightly fit and wrap around the edge of the monitor or LED display embedded in the mounting slot 51, effectively preventing damage to the equipment due to collisions, scratches, or vibrations during storage operations, while also providing a sealing and dustproof function. The pressure strip 52 has pre-drilled wire holes for the connecting wires of the monitor or LED display to pass through, ensuring a neat wiring layout and avoiding exposure, thus improving the safety and aesthetics of the equipment.

[0039] Specifically, transparent acrylic panels 53 are installed in the openings on both the front and rear sides of the equipment rack 5. These acrylic panels 53 are made of a high-transmittance material, allowing clear transmission of the content displayed on the monitor or LED screen embedded in the mounting slot 51. This ensures that operators can intuitively obtain key guidance information such as location number, goods type, and inventory status during warehousing operations. Simultaneously, their transparency does not diminish the visual guidance effects of dynamic arrows, color codes, etc. Furthermore, the acrylic panels 53 effectively prevent physical damage to the display components caused by dust, liquid splashes, or accidental impacts, extending the equipment's lifespan.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the equipment rack 5 is rotatably connected to the positioning block 4 via a pin 6, enabling the equipment rack 5 to rotate and adjust. Furthermore, several damping protrusions 54 are arranged in a circular pattern on the inner side of the two ear plates at the tail end of the equipment rack 5, and the corresponding positions of the positioning block 4 are provided with damping grooves 43 that cooperate with the damping protrusions 54. Through the interlocking action of the damping grooves 43 and the damping protrusions 54, multi-angle positioning and locking can be achieved during the rotation of the equipment rack 5, ensuring that the equipment rack 5 remains stable after being adjusted to the required angle, avoiding accidental rotation due to external forces or vibrations, and meeting the need for flexible viewing angle adjustment in warehousing operations.

[0041] In this embodiment, the mating design of the damping protrusion 54 and the damping groove 43 provides a reliable locking force through mechanical friction, ensuring both the flexibility of the equipment rack 5's directional adjustment and its stability after fixing. This structure allows the equipment rack 5 to adapt to diverse viewing requirements in warehousing operations, such as adjusting to the optimal viewing angle in narrow aisles or avoiding obstruction in densely packed shelving areas, improving the visibility of directional information and ease of operation, while also enhancing the equipment's durability and reliability, meeting the dual requirements of intelligent warehouse management for accurate guidance and efficient operation.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a retaining strip 41 is integrally formed on the positioning block 4, and the retaining strip 41 is movably installed in the slide groove 31 opened on the mounting frame 3. By adjusting the longitudinal position of the retaining strip 41 in the slide groove 31, the installation height of the positioning block 4 can be precisely adjusted, thereby driving the vertical position change of the equipment rack 5 and the display component on the shelf 1 to meet the guidance needs of different levels of storage locations.

[0043] Specifically, guide grooves 32 are provided on both sides of the slide groove 31. The guide grooves 32 cooperate with the positioning bolts 8 to form a guiding and positioning structure. The positioning bolts 8 can be accurately inserted through the guide grooves 32 and are connected to the pre-set screw holes 42 on the locking strip 41. By tightening the positioning bolts 8, the longitudinal position of the locking strip 41 in the slide groove 31 can be fixed, ensuring that the positioning block 4 and the equipment frame 5 remain stable after the height is adjusted.

[0044] In this embodiment, a reliable mechanical locking mechanism is constructed through the cooperative design of the guide groove 32 and the positioning bolt 8, combined with the screw hole 42 of the locking strip 41. When the positioning bolt 8 is tightened, its thread engagement with the screw hole 42 generates a locking force. Combined with the limiting effect of the guide groove 32, this effectively prevents the locking strip 41 from accidentally sliding within the slide groove 31, ensuring the positional stability of the equipment rack 5 and display components during warehousing operations, adapting to the installation requirements of different heights of the shelf 1, and improving the reliability and practicality of the guidance equipment.

[0045] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the support base 2 adopts a plate-like structure design, with connecting holes at both its upper and lower ends. These connecting holes cooperate with the positioning components 7 to achieve a detachable connection between the support base 2 and the shelf 1. The plate-like structure ensures sufficient support strength while reducing material usage, lowering the equipment weight, and facilitating installation and handling. After the positioning components 7 are tightened through the connecting holes, they ensure a stable fit between the support base 2 and the shelf 1, adapting to the installation requirements of shelves 1 of different specifications.

[0046] In this embodiment, the layout design of the connecting holes balances installation flexibility and structural stability. The positioning parts 7 at the top and bottom can be fixed to different positions on the shelf 1, enhancing the installation reliability of the equipment on the outside of the shelf 1. This design enables the warehouse guidance equipment to quickly adapt to changes in the layout of the shelf 1, such as shelf height adjustments or relocations, improving the equipment's adaptability in dynamic warehousing environments. At the same time, it simplifies the installation and disassembly process and reduces the operational costs of warehouse management.

[0047] The installation and use process of the warehouse guidance equipment described in this utility model includes:

[0048] Installation Process: First, install the bracket base 2: Attach the plate-shaped bracket base 2 to the outside of the shelf 1, and achieve a detachable connection by engaging the positioning piece 7 through the connecting holes at the top and bottom ends, ensuring the base is stable and adaptable to different shelf sizes. Next, adjust the height of the mounting frame 3: The integrated mounting frame 3 of the bracket base 2 can be adjusted to a fixed height according to the shelf hierarchy requirements, adapting to dense storage or dynamic layout scenarios. Then, install the positioning block 4: Insert the locking strip 41 of the positioning block 4 into the sliding groove 31 of the mounting frame 3, and guide the positioning bolt 8 into the screw hole 42 of the locking strip 41 through the guide groove 32, achieving precise fixation and locking of the longitudinal position of the positioning block 4. Finally, assemble the equipment rack 5: The equipment rack 5 is rotatably connected to the positioning block 4 via the pin 6. The damping protrusion 54 of the tail end ear plate is embedded in the damping groove 43 of the positioning block 4 to complete multi-angle rotation locking. The monitor or LED display screen is embedded in the mounting groove 51 of the equipment rack 5. The opening is pressed into the edge with a flexible rubber strip 52 to protect it. The transparent acrylic plates 53 on the front and back sides cover the display content and prevent dust and impact. The wires are neatly passed out through the wire holes of the strip 52.

[0049] Usage: During operation, adjust the angle of the equipment rack 5 according to the target storage location: rotate the equipment rack 5 to engage the damping protrusion 54 with different damping grooves 43, locking it to the optimal viewing angle, such as tilting the display in narrow aisles or avoiding obstruction in densely packed shelving areas. Height adjustment is achieved by the position of the sliding strip 41 within the slide groove 31. After tightening the positioning bolt 8, the vertical position of the equipment rack 5 and display components is ensured to be stable, adapting to the guidance needs of different shelving levels. The display components are fixed by the mounting slot 51. The display intuitively presents key information such as shelving level, storage location number, and goods type. The LED display screen uses dynamic arrows and color coding to enhance visual guidance, while the acrylic plate 53 ensures clear information transmission while blocking physical damage. The wires are orderly connected to the external system through the wire holes of the pressure strip 52, interacting with the WMS (existing technology) in real time to synchronize storage location status and operation instructions, realizing an upgrade from "passive instruction" to "active guidance," improving picking efficiency and operational accuracy.

[0050] All content not described in detail in this specification is prior art known to those skilled in the art, and the model parameters of each component are not specifically limited; conventional equipment can be used. Control elements not mentioned in this technical solution are prior art and are therefore not shown in the figures, and will not be described further here.

[0051] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present utility model.
