[0002] Automated storage and retrieval systems (AS / RS) require a variety of cargo delivery devices. In the prior art, Chinese patent application number 202323096599.7 discloses a delivery trolley that facilitates the securing of goods.
[0003] However, due to structural defects, the above technical solution still has the following problems:
[0004] 1. The cargo-carrying area of the equipment is limited and fixed, and the cargo-carrying area cannot be expanded, which affects the size of the goods transported by the equipment.
[0005] 2. It uses a fence to limit the size of the goods, directly restricting the maximum size of the transportable goods. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as fixed area, inability to adjust, and limitations on the size of transported goods, and to propose a goods delivery device suitable for automated warehouses.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] A goods delivery device suitable for automated warehouses includes two intelligent goods delivery vehicles for automated warehouses. The device also includes:
[0009] The expansion assembly includes an expansion motor, a swing arm, and two sliders. The hole in the middle of the swing arm is keyed to the output end of the expansion motor. The two ends of the swing arm are respectively hinged to the inner sides of the two sliders. The sliders are slidably connected to the intelligent goods delivery vehicle of the automated warehouse.
[0010] The cargo-carrying assembly consists of two parts, each including a cargo plate, a chute, and a limiting strip. The bottom of the cargo plate is bolted to the top of the intelligent delivery trolley in the automated warehouse. There are three chutes and three limiting strips, each bolted to the cargo plate. The three chutes are located on the top of the cargo plate. The two cargo-carrying assemblies are slidably connected by the cooperation of the chute and the limiting strip.
[0011] The system includes four limiting mechanisms connected to the pallet. By adjusting the movement of the swing arm, the distance between two automated warehouse intelligent delivery trolleys can be increased, thereby expanding the area between the tops of the two trolleys and allowing them to transport larger items. The limiting mechanisms can be laid flat outwards without obstructing the placement of large items.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the limiting mechanism includes an electric push cylinder, a hinge rod, a large bevel gear, and a limiting component. The output end of the electric push cylinder is hinged to one end of the hinge rod, and the end of the hinge rod away from the electric push cylinder is hinged to the top of the large bevel gear. The large bevel gear meshes with the limiting component.
[0013] Furthermore, the power supply to the electric push cylinder is turned on. The power supply can be an external power supply or an internal power supply. The electric push cylinder can drive the hinge rod to move. The hinge rod and the top of the large bevel gear have an eccentric structure. The hinge rod can drive the large bevel gear to rotate. The large bevel gear can drive the limit component to rotate.
[0014] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the limiting component includes a small bevel gear, a rotating shaft, and limiting claws. The teeth of the large bevel gear mesh with the teeth of the small bevel gear. The axis of the small bevel gear is keyed to the surface of the rotating shaft. Two limiting claws are provided, and the holes of the two limiting claws are respectively keyed to both ends of the rotating shaft surface.
[0015] Furthermore, the large bevel gear can drive the small bevel gear to rotate. The large bevel gear is larger than the small bevel gear, which can accelerate the small bevel gear. The small bevel gear can drive the rotating shaft to rotate, and the rotating shaft can drive the limiting pawl to rotate outward until the limiting pawl is horizontal with the cargo plate.
[0016] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the surface of the electric push cylinder is bolted to the interior of the cargo plate, and the shaft of the large bevel gear is rotatably connected to the cavity inside the cargo plate.
[0017] Furthermore, the electric push cylinder is fixed to the cargo plate, which facilitates the movement of the hinge rod driven by the electric push cylinder. The large bevel gear is rotated with the cargo plate through bearings to ensure the smooth rotation of the large bevel gear.
[0018] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the rotating shaft is rotatably sleeved with the cargo plate, and a groove is provided on the side of the cargo plate, with the limiting claw located inside the groove.
[0019] Furthermore, the rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on the cargo plate via bearings to ensure the smoothness of the shaft's rotation, and the groove structure facilitates the rotation of the limiting claw.
[0020] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the top of the expansion motor is bolted with a stabilizing plate, and the two ends of the surface of the stabilizing plate are slidably connected to the sliding openings of the two cargo plates respectively.
[0021] Furthermore, the stabilizing plate limits the expansion motor to prevent it from rotating. The stabilizing plate guides the two cargo plates to slide along the slide rails.
[0022] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the top of the limiting strip is flush with the top of the cargo plate, and the slide groove of one cargo component is slidably connected to the limiting strip of another cargo component.
[0023] Furthermore, the flush alignment of the limiting strip and the cargo plate allows both to bear the weight of the goods simultaneously, and the sliding arrangement of the chute and the limiting strip can guide the two cargo plates.
[0024] Beneficial effects:
[0025] 1. The expansion motor can drive the swing arm to rotate. The swing arm can push two intelligent delivery carts for the automated warehouse to move through the slider. Then, with the cooperation of the pallet and limit bar, larger-sized goods can be placed.
[0026] 2. The electric push cylinder can drive the large bevel gear to rotate through the hinge rod. The large bevel gear can drive the rotating shaft to rotate through the small bevel gear. The rotating shaft can then drive the limiting claw to limit the goods. This structure can be adjusted according to the size of the goods.
[0027] In this invention, the distance between two intelligent delivery trolleys for automated warehouses can be adjusted by the movement of the swing arm, thereby increasing the area between the tops of the two trolleys and allowing them to transport larger goods. The limiting mechanism can be flattened outwards, so as not to obstruct the placement of large goods. Attached Figure Description

[0033] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0034] Example 1
[0035] Reference Figure 1-4 A goods delivery device suitable for automated warehouses includes two automated warehouse goods delivery vehicles 1. The goods delivery device for automated warehouses also includes:
[0036] The expansion assembly includes an expansion motor 2, a swing arm 3, and a slider 4. There are two sliders 4. The hole in the middle of the swing arm 3 is keyed to the output end of the expansion motor 2. The two ends of the swing arm 3 are respectively hinged to the inner sides of the two sliders 4. The sliders 4 are slidably connected to the intelligent goods delivery vehicle 1 of the automated warehouse.
[0037] The cargo-carrying assembly consists of two parts, each including a cargo plate 6, a chute 7, and a limiting strip 8. The bottom of the cargo plate 6 is bolted to the top of the intelligent delivery trolley 1 of the automated warehouse. There are three chute 7s and three limiting strips 8. All three limiting strips 8 are bolted to the cargo plate 6. All three chute 7s are located on the top of the cargo plate 6. The two cargo-carrying assemblies are slidably connected by the cooperation of the chute 7 and the limiting strip 8.
[0038] The limiting mechanism has four parts, which are connected to the cargo plate 6. By moving the swing arm 3, the distance between the two automated warehouse intelligent delivery vehicles 1 can be adjusted, thus increasing the area between the tops of the two automated warehouse intelligent delivery vehicles 1, allowing them to transport larger-sized goods. The limiting mechanism can be flattened outwards, so as not to obstruct the placement of large-sized goods.
[0039] In order to create a limit on both sides of the cargo plate 6, such as Figure 4As shown, the limiting mechanism includes an electric cylinder 9, a hinge rod 10, a large bevel gear 11, and a limiting assembly. The output end of the electric cylinder 9 is hinged to one end of the hinge rod 10, and the end of the hinge rod 10 away from the electric cylinder 9 is hinged to the top of the large bevel gear 11. The large bevel gear 11 meshes with the limiting assembly. When the power supply to the electric cylinder 9 is turned on, the power supply can be an external power supply or an internal power supply. The electric cylinder 9 can drive the hinge rod 10 to move. The hinge rod 10 and the top of the large bevel gear 11 have an eccentric structure. The hinge rod 10 can drive the large bevel gear 11 to rotate, and the large bevel gear 11 can drive the limiting assembly to rotate.
[0040] In order to switch between limit and release, such as Figure 4 As shown, the limiting assembly includes a small bevel gear 12, a rotating shaft 13, and a limiting claw 14. The teeth of the large bevel gear 11 mesh with the teeth of the small bevel gear 12. The axis of the small bevel gear 12 is keyed to the surface of the rotating shaft 13. There are two limiting claws 14, and the holes of the two limiting claws 14 are respectively keyed to the two ends of the surface of the rotating shaft 13. The large bevel gear 11 can drive the small bevel gear 12 to rotate. The size of the large bevel gear 11 is larger than that of the small bevel gear 12, which can produce an acceleration effect on the small bevel gear 12. The small bevel gear 12 can drive the rotating shaft 13 to rotate. The rotating shaft 13 can drive the limiting claw 14 to rotate outward until the limiting claw 14 is horizontal with the cargo plate 6.
[0041] To stabilize the large bevel gear 11, such as Figure 4 As shown, the surface of the electric push cylinder 9 is bolted to the interior of the cargo plate 6, and the shaft of the large bevel gear 11 is rotatably connected to the cavity inside the cargo plate 6. The electric push cylinder 9 is fixed by the cargo plate 6, which facilitates the electric push cylinder 9 to drive the hinge rod 10 to move. The large bevel gear 11 is rotatably set with the cargo plate 6 through the bearing to ensure the smoothness of the rotation of the large bevel gear 11.
[0042] To ensure the rotational stability of the limit mechanism, such as Figure 4 As shown, the rotating shaft 13 is rotatably connected to the cargo plate 6. The side of the cargo plate 6 is provided with a groove, and the limiting claw 14 is located inside the groove. The rotating shaft 13 is rotatably connected to the cargo plate 6 through a bearing to ensure the smooth rotation of the rotating shaft 13. The groove structure facilitates the rotation of the limiting claw 14.
[0043] In order to limit the movement of the expansion motor 2, such as Figure 3 As shown, the top of the expansion motor 2 is bolted to a stabilizing plate 5. The two ends of the surface of the stabilizing plate 5 are slidably connected to the sliding openings of the two cargo plates 6 respectively. The stabilizing plate 5 limits the expansion motor 2 to prevent the expansion motor 2 from rotating. The stabilizing plate 5 slides and guides the cargo plates 6 through the slide rail, allowing the two cargo plates 6 to move.
[0044] In order to distribute the pressure on pallet 6, such as Figure 3As shown, the top of the limiting strip 8 is flush with the top of the cargo plate 6. The chute 7 of one cargo component is slidably connected to the limiting strip 8 of another cargo component. The flushness of the limiting strip 8 and the cargo plate 6 makes it convenient for both to bear the weight of the goods at the same time. The sliding setting of the chute 7 and the limiting strip 8 can guide the two cargo plates 6.
[0045] Example 2
[0046] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the electric push cylinder 9, hinge rod 10, large bevel gear 11 and small bevel gear 12 are replaced with a motor, and the motor directly drives the rotating shaft 13 to rotate. However, such a setting has high requirements for the performance of the motor. Therefore, this application preferably uses the electric push cylinder 9, hinge rod 10, large bevel gear 11 and small bevel gear 12.
[0047] It should be noted that the specific model of the expansion motor 2 and electric push cylinder 9 used can be selected by those skilled in the art. Furthermore, the expansion motor 2 and electric push cylinder 9 mentioned above are all existing technologies and will not be elaborated upon in this solution.
[0048] The intelligent delivery vehicle for automated warehouses 1 adopts existing technology and can use the vehicle structure of the patent with application number 201911301970.4.
[0049] The operating steps of this utility model are as follows: Goods are placed on top of the pallet 6 for support. When transporting large goods, the power to the expansion motor 2 is turned on. The expansion motor 2 is fixed by the stabilizing plate 5, so the expansion motor 2 can drive the swing arm 3 to rotate. The swing arm 3 can drive the two sliders 4 to move. The sliders 4 are slidably set with the automated warehouse intelligent goods delivery cart 1 through the slide rail. The two sliders 4 can respectively drive the two automated warehouse intelligent goods delivery carts 1 to move away from each other. During this process, the limiting strip 8 of one pallet 6 moves in the slide groove 7 of the other pallet 6. The sliding limit of the limiting strip 8 and the slide groove 7 allows the two automated warehouse intelligent goods delivery carts 1 to move away or closer stably. At the same time, the limiting strip 8 can also play a supporting role. When the limiting claw 14 obstructs the movement, the power supply to the electric push cylinder 9 is turned on. The power supply can be external or internal. The electric push cylinder 9 can drive the hinge rod 10 to move. The hinge rod 10 and the top of the large bevel gear 11 are eccentrically positioned. The hinge rod 10 can drive the large bevel gear 11 to rotate. The large bevel gear 11 can drive the small bevel gear 12 to rotate. The size of the large bevel gear 11 is larger than that of the small bevel gear 12, which can produce an acceleration effect on the small bevel gear 12. The small bevel gear 12 can drive the rotating shaft 13 to rotate. The rotating shaft 13 can drive the limiting claw 14 to rotate outward until the limiting claw 14 is horizontal with the cargo plate 6. If it is necessary to fix the cargo, the electric push cylinder 9 moves in the opposite direction, and the hinge rod 10 is located at the bottom of the rotating shaft 13, and the two do not contact each other.
[0050] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
