A logistics warehouse inspection robot

Abstract

This invention provides a logistics warehouse inspection robot, including an infrared receiving structure mounted on the ceiling and aligned with a guide rail. Multiple infrared receiving structures are evenly spaced. The robot and infrared receiving structures work together, with the infrared transmitter aligned with the side of the shelf. When the side of a item extends from the shelf, the infrared transmitter sends a signal to block the item, preventing the receiver from detecting the infrared signal. This alerts personnel to rearrange the stored goods. The infrared transmitter can also swing left and right, increasing the inspection range and efficiency of the robot.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of logistics and warehousing technology, and specifically relates to a logistics and warehousing inspection robot. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of e-commerce and the transformation and upgrading of intelligent manufacturing, modern logistics and warehousing systems are facing unprecedented efficiency challenges. According to the 2023 annual report of the International Warehousing and Logistics Association (IWLA), the global warehousing area has a compound annual growth rate of 12.8%, but labor costs still account for 35%-40% of total operating costs. Against this backdrop, the market demand for warehouse automation equipment continues to grow, with intelligent inspection, as a core component ensuring warehouse safety and operational efficiency, becoming a key area for technological research and development.

[0003] However, when goods are stored, if their position shifts, it may cause goods on the top of the shelves to fall. Manual patrols and inspections cannot effectively and quickly detect such shifts. Utility Model Content

[0021] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "page", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "coaxial", "bottom", "one end", "top", "other end", "one side", "front", "both ends", "both sides", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0022] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0023] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," "fixing," and "equipped with" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0024] Referring now to the accompanying drawings, the various figures are intended only to illustrate certain exemplary embodiments and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. In the various figures, the same reference numerals denote the same or corresponding parts. The dimensions and scales in the various figures are also for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention; these dimensions may be enlarged relative to actual products.

[0025] Reference Figure 1-3 The above describes a logistics warehouse inspection robot, which includes an inspection robot structure 1. The bottom of the inspection robot structure 1 is provided with a guide rail 2, which is connected to the ground. The guide rail 2 is laid on the ground to transmit the movement direction of the inspection robot structure 1.

[0026] An infrared receiving structure 3 is installed on the roof and aligned with the guide rail 2. The number of infrared receiving structures 3 is set to multiple, and the multiple infrared receiving structures 3 are distributed at equal intervals.

[0027] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the inspection robot structure 1 includes a robot body 101. Mounting rings 102 are provided at the four corners of the bottom of the robot body 101. A transmission shaft 103 is rotatably connected between two of the mounting rings 102. Guide wheels 104 are provided at both ends of the transmission shaft 103, and the guide wheels 104 are connected to the guide rail 2. Mounting side plates 105 are provided on both sides of the robot body 101. A rotating bar 106 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the mounting side plate 105.

The output point of the motor is connected to the transmission screw 111. When the motor is started, the motor drives the transmission screw 111 to rotate. The transmission screw 111 drives the moving bar 112 to move. The moving bar 112 drives the rotating bar 106 to rotate along the connection position between the rotating bar 106 and the mounting side plate 105. At the same time, the rotating bar 106 drives the infrared transmitter 107 to swing. Then, the infrared transmitter 107 is started. The infrared transmitter 107 emits infrared signals to detect the goods stored inside the shelf. When the goods do not exceed the shelf, the signal is received by the infrared receiver 302. Otherwise, it is blocked by the goods. Then, a buzzer is set inside the robot body 101 to remind the operator to check the goods.
