Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of intelligent logistics, and more specifically, to an AMR / AGV lifting, positioning, and calibration rack. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, the intelligent and automated development of warehousing and logistics has been rapid. The emergence of intelligent material handling robots (AMRs / AGVs) has greatly solved the problem of difficult handling of existing goods. During handling, AMRs / AGVs enter the shelves in reverse mode, lift them up and remove the goods from the shelves, or transport the goods to the shelves while in a lifted state and slowly lower them to place the goods on the shelves.

[0003] However, because AMR / AGVs may deviate when reversing into the rack, and the rack does not correct the angle and posture of the AMR / AGV, there is a risk of vehicle deviation and the lifting mechanism colliding with the rack during repeated use of positioning and lifting. This can easily lead to problems such as damage to the AMR / AGV or the rack, and cargo collapse. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an AMR / AGV lifting and positioning correction rack, which can correct the positioning of AMR / AGV robots when they deviate during reversing, improve the lifting accuracy of the vehicle, and reduce the risk of materials falling during lifting.

[0005] The embodiments of this utility model are implemented as follows:

[0006] This application provides an AMR / AGV lifting and positioning calibration rack, including two parallel support frames. Each of the two support frames has at least one calibration bar along its length on its opposite side. The calibration bar is composed of a plurality of guide wheels arranged along the length of the support frame, and each guide wheel is rotatably mounted on the support frame.

[0007] Furthermore, based on the aforementioned scheme, the correction strip also includes a mounting component connected to the support frame, the mounting component including two mounting plates arranged vertically opposite each other; the guide wheel is rotatably connected between the two mounting plates via a rotating shaft, and the outer side of the guide wheel protrudes beyond the outer side of the mounting plate.

[0008] Furthermore, based on the aforementioned solution, the mounting component also includes a fixing plate, which is connected to one side of the two mounting plates near the support frame. The fixing plate is slidably connected to the support frame and locked in place by a locking component.

[0009] Furthermore, based on the aforementioned scheme, the guide wheels on the support frame are driven to rotate by a power drive mechanism.

[0010] Furthermore, based on the aforementioned scheme, a carrying platform is provided on the top of the carrying frame; the tops of the two carrying platforms are separated into two cargo storage locations by a horizontally arranged partition.

[0011] Furthermore, based on the aforementioned scheme, each of the two cargo storage locations is equipped with at least one positioning plate, the two positioning plates are parallel to each other and are located on the side of the carrying platform that is far away from each other; and each positioning plate is located on the right side of the corresponding cargo storage location in the reversing direction.

[0012] Furthermore, based on the aforementioned scheme, the positioning plate is integrally connected to the partition, and the end of the positioning plate away from the partition is tapered.

[0013] Furthermore, based on the aforementioned scheme, the correction strip is made of PE material; the support frame is made of stainless steel.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the embodiments of this utility model have at least the following advantages or beneficial effects:

[0015] This application utilizes two parallel support frames, each with at least one correction bar along its length on opposite sides. Each correction bar consists of several guide wheels arranged along the length of the support frame, each guide wheel rotatably mounted on the support frame. When an AMR / AGV reverses into the support frame, it collides with the correction bar due to deviation. The correction bar provides a reaction force to the vehicle, allowing it to correct its posture using its own reversing force. This corrects the positioning of the AMR / AGV robot when it deviates during reversing, improving vehicle lifting accuracy and reducing the risk of materials falling during lifting. Furthermore, the multiple guide wheels of the correction bar can achieve rolling friction with the vehicle, avoiding frictional resistance from affecting vehicle operation and causing damage.

[0020] The embodiments of this application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Please refer to Figures 1-2 The diagram shows the overall structure of the AMR / AGV lifting, positioning, and calibration rack.

[0022] This embodiment provides an AMR / AGV lifting and positioning calibration rack, including two parallel support frames 1. Each of the two support frames 1 has at least one calibration bar 2 along its length on its opposite side. The calibration bar 2 is composed of several guide wheels 21 arranged along the length of the support frame 1, and each guide wheel 21 is rotatably mounted on the support frame 1.

[0023] The following will further describe an AMR / AGV lifting, positioning, and calibration rack according to this exemplary embodiment.

[0024] In some embodiments, two support frames 1 are arranged side-by-side with a gap between them, forming a space for the AMR / AGV to reverse. At least one correction bar 2 is provided on each opposite side of the two support frames 1 along their length; multiple correction bars 2 can also be provided, depending on the actual height of the support frames 1. When multiple correction bars 2 are provided, they are spaced vertically. Each correction bar 2 consists of several guide wheels 21 arranged along the length of the support frame 1, with each guide wheel 21 rotatably mounted on the support frame 1. Generally, when a mobile trolley moves goods between the two support frames 1 in reverse, vehicle deviation may occur, leading to collisions with the support frames 1 during lifting. By providing correction bars 2, the AMR / AGV robot can be positioned and corrected when it deviates during reversing, improving vehicle lifting accuracy and reducing the risk of materials falling during lifting.

[0025] When the AMR / AGV reverses into the support frame 1, it collides with the correction bar 2 due to deviation. The correction bar 2 gives the vehicle a reaction force, allowing it to use its own reversing force to correct the vehicle's posture, thereby correcting the positioning of the AMR / AGV robot when it deviates during reversing. In addition, the multiple rotating guide wheels 21 of the correction bar 2 can achieve rolling friction with the vehicle, which can avoid frictional resistance from affecting the vehicle's operation and causing damage to the vehicle.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment, the aforementioned correction strip 2 further includes a mounting component connected to the support frame 1. The mounting component includes two mounting plates 22 arranged vertically opposite each other. A guide wheel 21 is rotatably connected between the two mounting plates 22 via a rotating shaft, and the outer surface of the guide wheel 21 protrudes beyond the outer surface of the mounting plate 22. By setting the mounting plate 22 to mount the guide wheel 21, it is easy to rotate. The outer surface of the guide wheel 21 protrudes beyond the outer surface of the mounting plate 22, so that it can contact the vehicle when the vehicle deviates to achieve rolling friction, correct the vehicle's posture, and assist in reversing the vehicle.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, the mounting component further includes a fixing plate 23. The fixing plate 23 is connected to the two mounting plates 22 on the side near the support frame 1. The fixing plate 23 is slidably connected to the support frame 1 and locked in place by a locking member 24. By setting the fixing plate 23, the correction strip 2 can be slidably positioned on the support frame 1, thereby adjusting the height of the correction strip 2 to meet the reversing needs of different models of AMR / AGV vehicles and achieve optimal performance. The locking member 24 can be a bolt or similar structure. Specifically, the fixing plate 23 can be configured as a U-shaped structure, sliding on the vertical beam of the support frame 1. A locking bolt passes through the fixing plate 23, and the vertical beam can have multiple connecting holes or strip-shaped holes to facilitate the locking bolt passing through and locking, thus fixing the correction strip 2. Specifically, the height of the fixing plate 23 is greater than the distance between the two mounting plates 22, allowing the bolt to pass through from the top and bottom sides of the two mounting plates 22, avoiding interference with the guide wheel 21.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment, the guide wheels 21 on the aforementioned support frame 1 are driven to rotate by a power drive mechanism. That is, the guide wheels 21 can rotate freely without power, or they can be driven to rotate by a power drive mechanism. When a power drive mechanism is provided, the mechanism can consist of a motor, gears, toothed belts, etc. Gears are fitted onto one end of the shaft of the guide wheel 21, and toothed belts are wound around the outside of multiple gears. The motor drives one of the shafts to rotate, which in turn drives the remaining guide wheels 21 to rotate via the toothed belt and gears, achieving synchronous rotation of multiple guide wheels 21.

[0029] As a preferred embodiment, the top of the aforementioned support frame 1 is provided with a support platform 11, which is used to place goods, material frames, etc. The tops of the two support platforms 11 are separated into two goods storage positions by a horizontally arranged partition 3. In this way, the goods storage positions at both ends of the two support frames 1 can be handled by an AMR / AGV robot, which improves the efficiency of goods handling. Moreover, the partition 3 separates them so that they do not affect each other.

[0030] In a preferred implementation, each of the two cargo storage locations is equipped with at least one positioning plate 4. The two positioning plates 4 are parallel to each other and are located on the opposite side of the carrying platform 11. Each positioning plate 4 is located on the right side of the corresponding cargo storage location in the reversing direction. Due to the inertia of the AMR / AGV robot, it is prone to deviating to the right and rear. Therefore, setting the positioning plate 4 on the right side in the reversing direction can limit the cargo and prevent the cargo from falling off when the robot deviates or collides with it.

[0031] As a preferred implementation, the positioning plate 4 is integrally connected with the partition plate 3. The end of the positioning plate 4 away from the partition plate 3 is tapered. That is, when the vehicle is reversing, the end of the positioning plate 4 that first contacts the goods is pointed, which can guide the goods into the storage space. As the goods are fully in the storage space, the thickness of the positioning plate 4 becomes wider, which stabilizes and limits the goods.

[0032] As a preferred implementation, the aforementioned correction strip 2 is made of PE material, which has high impact toughness, can absorb impact energy, has good resilience, and a low coefficient of friction, thus protecting the vehicle from damage. The load-bearing frame 1 is made of stainless steel, which improves rigidity and extends service life.

[0033] Furthermore, unless otherwise explicitly specified or limited, the terms "installation" and "connection" in this application embodiment should be interpreted broadly. For example, "connection" can be a detachable connection or a non-detachable connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. The terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "inner," "outer," and "side," etc., are merely for reference to the direction in the accompanying drawings or the usual placement of the product during use. They are only for clearly describing this application and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. They should not be construed as limitations on this application.
