Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of low-altitude tobacco delivery technology, specifically to a drone logistics cargo docking platform. Background Technology

[0002] Drone logistics is increasingly being used in last-mile delivery, particularly in high-value, precision-delivery sectors like tobacco. Tobacco products are characterized by their high value, fragility, and the need for precise traceability, placing extremely high demands on the stability and reliability of the delivery process.

[0003] Currently, the common automated receiving method in this field involves drones dropping goods onto a fixed pallet or platform, and then using mobile platforms such as conveyor belts or AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles) to transfer the goods, along with the pallet, to a sorting or temporary storage area. For example, Chinese patent CN107720069A discloses an intelligent express transfer cabinet, which has a drone landing platform, through holes, and an internal transfer device. The cabinet can transfer the cargo boxes delivered by drones through the through holes to the internal storage slots, and then the recipient can retrieve them from the retrieval port. The transfer process mainly relies on the cargo box pallet.

[0004] However, the pallet-based receiving and transfer methods in the aforementioned existing technologies have significant drawbacks: during the transfer process, when the conveyor belt or mobile platform starts, stops, or changes direction, the goods placed on it may slide, shift, or even tip over due to inertia on the smooth pallet surface. For tobacco cartons with regular shapes and smooth surfaces, the shifting of goods may not only cause packaging wear and breakage of the cigarettes inside, but may also cause the goods to fall off the edge of the pallet, resulting in direct economic losses and disruption of the delivery process. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned technical deficiencies and propose a drone logistics cargo docking platform to solve the technical problem that cargo is prone to sliding, shifting or even overturning due to inertia during the transfer process in the prior art.

[0008] In some embodiments, the first direction is a vertical direction and the second direction is a horizontal direction.

[0009] In some embodiments, the upper end of the motion path of the first platform corresponds to the receiving station, and the lower end forms a transition position. The motion path of the second platform corresponds at least partially to the transition position, and its upper surface is configured to connect with the bottom of the receiving device when the first platform is in the transition position, so as to support the receiving device.

[0010] In some embodiments, both the first platform and the second platform are provided with a snap-fit ​​structure, and the receiving device is provided with a snap-fit ​​engagement structure at the snap-fit ​​structure positions of the first platform and the second platform. The snap-fit ​​structure can snap into the snap-fit ​​engagement structure to fix the receiving device on the first platform or the second platform.

[0011] In some embodiments, both the first platform and the second platform are provided with a limiting structure. The limiting structure includes a limiting post protruding from the first platform or the second platform. The bottom and top of the receiving device are provided with limiting grooves that cooperate with the limiting post at positions corresponding to the limiting post.

[0012] In some embodiments, the unloading device includes a push plate and an unloading drive component. The push plate is disposed on the transfer device, and the drive end of the unloading drive component is connected to the push plate to drive the push plate to move linearly. When the receiving device is located at the unloading station, the movement path of the push plate passes through the receiving space and corresponds to the unloading channel.

[0013] In some embodiments, the receiving device is further provided with a working channel opposite to the unloading channel; when the receiving device is located at the unloading station, the pusher plate can pass through the working channel, the receiving space and the unloading channel in sequence under the drive of the unloading drive component.

[0014] In some embodiments, the work passage and / or the unloading passage is provided with an openable and closable door structure.

[0015] In some embodiments, the drone logistics cargo docking platform further includes a logistics box, in which the receiving device, the transfer device and the unloading device are all installed. A delivery port is opened on the top of the logistics box, and the receiving station is located below the delivery port.

[0016] Compared with existing technologies, the drone logistics cargo docking platform provided by this utility model, by setting up a receiving device with a receiving space, can stably confine the cargo within the receiving space after receiving it, preventing the cargo from sliding, shifting, or even tipping over due to inertia when the transfer device starts, stops, or turns. The transfer device can drive the receiving device to move smoothly from the receiving station to the unloading station, where an unloading device is set up to actively move the cargo along a predetermined path, realizing the controlled removal of the cargo through the unloading channel. The entire transfer process requires no manual intervention, which not only improves the efficiency and accuracy of cargo transfer but also significantly reduces the risk of cargo damage and loss.

[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.

[0020] To address the technical problem of goods sliding, shifting, or even tipping over due to inertia during transit, this utility model provides a drone logistics cargo docking platform. The platform effectively limits the cargo's position through the receiving space of the receiving device, combined with the smooth drive of the transfer device and the controlled unloading of the unloading device. This ensures the cargo remains stable and under control throughout the transit process, significantly reducing the risk of wear, breakage, and falling of high-value, fragile tobacco goods during delivery. It effectively overcomes the problems of cargo sliding, shifting, and tipping caused by inertia in existing pallet-based receiving and transfer methods.

[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 6 The drone logistics cargo docking platform includes a receiving device 1, a transfer device 2, and an unloading device 3. The receiving device 1 has a receiving space 101 for receiving cargo and an unloading channel 102 connected to the receiving space 101. The transfer device 2 is connected to the receiving device 1 and is used to drive the receiving device 1 from a receiving station for receiving cargo to an unloading station for unloading cargo. The unloading device 3 is set corresponding to the unloading station and is configured to act on the cargo in its receiving space 101 when the receiving device 1 is located at the unloading station, so as to drive the cargo to move out through the unloading channel 102.

[0022] In this device, a receiving device 1 with a receiving space 101 is provided, which can securely contain the goods within the receiving space 101 after receiving them, preventing the goods from falling or being damaged during transfer. The design of the transfer device 2 allows the receiving device 1 to move flexibly between the receiving station and the unloading station. After the receiving device 1 reaches the unloading station, the unloading device 3 can remove the goods from the receiving space 101 through the unloading channel 102 provided on the receiving device 1, realizing the controlled removal of the goods through the unloading channel 102. Throughout the entire process, the goods are always under control, avoiding the risk of falling caused by the relative sliding of goods and pallet surfaces in traditional palletized transfer, and ensuring the integrity and traceability of high-value tobacco goods in the distribution process.

[0023] Please see Figure 1 In some possible embodiments, a logistics box 4 is provided, which serves as the protective shell and structural foundation of the entire docking platform. A delivery port 41 is located on its top, and a positioning device can be installed above this port 41 to assist the drone in precise delivery. The receiving station is located directly below this delivery port 41. The receiving device 1, the transfer device 2, and the unloading device 3 are all modularly installed within the frame of the logistics box 4.

[0024] In other possible embodiments, other forms may also be adopted. For example, the docking platform may not be integrated into a separate logistics box 4, but rather as a fixed device directly embedded in a smart parcel locker, warehouse wall, or specific workstation in a sorting center. Its receiving workstation may be directly exposed outdoors, allowing for delivery by drone landing, or docking via a conveyor platform extending outdoors.

[0025] Preferably, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In this embodiment, the receiving device 1 is a receiving box 11, which forms a receiving space 101 inside. A top cover that can be opened or closed is provided on the top. When it is necessary to receive goods, the top cover is opened, and the top cover is closed after the goods fall into the receiving space 101.

[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 4To achieve precise movement of the receiving box 11, in some possible embodiments, the transfer device 2 includes a first drive mechanism 21 and a second drive mechanism 22. The first drive mechanism 21 includes a first platform 211 and a first drive member 212. The first platform 211 is a rigid plate or frame structure with a first connecting end at its bottom for connection to the top of the receiving device 1. The first drive member 212 is connected to the first platform 211 and drives the first platform 211 to move vertically. The top of the upward stroke of the first platform 211 is the receiving station, where the receiving box 11 opens its top cover to receive the goods dropped by the drone. The bottom of the downward stroke of the first platform 211 is set as a transition position. The second drive mechanism 22 includes a second platform 221 and a second drive member 222. The second platform 221 is also a plate or frame structure with a second connecting end at its top. The second drive member 222 is connected to the second platform 221 and drives the second platform 221 to move horizontally. The horizontal movement path of the second platform 221 is designed such that at least one section passes directly below the transition position.

[0027] When the first platform 211, carrying the receiving box 11, descends from the receiving station to the transition position, the second platform 221 will move in advance to wait below the transition position. At this time, the first platform 211 continues to descend slightly, so that the bottom of the receiving box 11 lands smoothly on the upper surface of the second platform 221, thereby realizing the transfer of bearing responsibility.

[0028] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 Preferably, in this embodiment, the first driving component 212 is a ball screw 2121 structure, which includes a ball screw 2121, a nut 2122, and a drive motor 2123; the ball screw 2121 is vertically arranged, the nut 2122 is sleeved on the ball screw 2121 and fixedly connected to the first platform 211, and the drive motor 2123 is connected to one end of the ball screw 2121, driving the ball screw 2121 to rotate, thereby causing the nut 2122 and the first platform 211 to move linearly in the vertical direction; the second driving component 222 is a conveyor structure with a belt 2221, which includes a belt 2221, a drive wheel 2222, a driven wheel 2223, and a motor. The drive wheel 2222 and the driven wheel 2223 are respectively located at both ends of the bottom frame 25. The belt 2221 is wound around the drive wheel 2222 and the driven wheel 2223 and is fixedly connected to the second platform 221. The drive motor 2123 is connected to the drive wheel 2222 and drives the belt 2221 and the second platform 221 to move linearly in the horizontal direction by driving the drive wheel 2222 to rotate.

[0029] To improve the stability of the second platform 221 during horizontal movement, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2In some possible embodiments, sliders 2211 are provided on both sides of the bottom of the second platform 221, and a groove 251 is provided on the frame 25. The sliders 2211 are embedded in the grooves 251 and can slide along the length of the grooves 251. Through the cooperation of the sliders 2211 and the grooves 251, the movement trajectory of the second platform 221 is precisely defined, effectively reducing the possible swaying or deviation during horizontal movement, thereby ensuring the stability of the receiving box 11 in the process of transferring responsibility and subsequent horizontal transportation.

[0030] In other possible embodiments, the specific form and driving direction of the first driving member 212 and the second driving member 222 are not limited to these, and can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs and design requirements. For example, the first driving member 212 and the second driving member 222 can also adopt linear drive elements such as hydraulic cylinders or pneumatic cylinders, and realize the rising and falling action of the first platform 211 by controlling the magnitude and direction of hydraulic or pneumatic pressure. Other forms of transmission mechanisms such as sprocket and chain drive and gear and rack drive can also be selected. The driving direction of the first driving member 212 and the second driving member 222 can be designed as inclined or other special directions according to the specific workstation layout and operational requirements. For example, in some places with relatively compact space layout, designing the driving direction of the first driving member 212 or the second driving member 222 as inclined can make more reasonable use of space, enabling the entire device to smoothly receive, transfer and unload goods within a limited space.

[0031] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 To ensure that the receiving device 1 is firmly fixed to the moving platform during transport, in some possible embodiments, a locking structure 23 is provided at the bottom of the first platform 211 and the top of the second platform 221. The locking structure 23 adopts an electromagnetic latch. The top and bottom surfaces of the receiving box 11 are respectively provided with locking and engaging structures 13 corresponding to the locking structures 23 of the first platform 211 and the second platform 221. The locking and engaging structures 13 are slots. When the receiving box 11 is supported by the first platform 211, the electromagnetic latch of the first platform 211 is embedded in the slot on the top surface of the receiving box 11, and it is firmly locked by electromagnetic attraction, preventing the receiving box 11 from shaking or falling off during the rising or falling process.

[0032] When the receiving box 11 needs to be handed over to the second platform 221, the first drive unit 212 and the first platform 211 transport the receiving box 11 onto the second platform 221, causing the electromagnetic latch of the second platform 221 to engage in the slot on the bottom surface of the receiving box 11, achieving a secure lock through electromagnetic attraction. Simultaneously, the electromagnetic latch of the first platform 211 demagnetizes and releases the slot on the top surface of the receiving box 11, completing the smooth transfer of the receiving box 11 between the first platform 211 and the second platform 221. Subsequently, the first drive unit 212 drives the first platform 211 to rise, causing the electromagnetic latch of the first platform 211 to disengage from the slot on the top of the receiving box 11. Then, the second drive unit 222 can be activated to drive the second platform 221 to move horizontally, transporting the receiving box 11 to the unloading station.

[0033] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 To further ensure the accuracy of the receiving box 11's position during transportation, in some possible embodiments, both the first platform 211 and the second platform 221 are provided with limiting structures 24. Specifically, the limiting structure 24 includes limiting posts protruding from the first platform 211 or the second platform 221, with limiting posts located at the four bottom corners of the first platform 211 and the four top corners of the second platform 221. The bottom and top of the receiving box 11 are provided with limiting grooves 14 corresponding to the limiting posts at the four corners. When the receiving box 11 is lowered to connect with the second platform 221 or the first platform 211 is lowered to connect with the receiving box 11, the limiting posts will first be guided into the limiting grooves 14, serving to provide coarse positioning and prevent the receiving device 1 from moving horizontally on the platform.

[0034] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 To smoothly eject the goods from the receiving box 11, in some possible embodiments, the unloading device 3 includes a push plate 31 and an unloading drive component 32, preferably an electric push rod with controllable stroke. The electric push rod is fixedly mounted on the second platform 221, and the push plate 31 is fixed to the push rod end of the electric push rod. The receiving box 11 also has a working channel 103 on the side opposite to the unloading channel 102. The unloading channel 102 and the working channel 103 are openings of the same size, and the two channels are connected to the internal receiving space 101 to form a straight channel. When the receiving box 11 is transported to the unloading station by the second platform 221 and accurately positioned, the unloading drive component 32 is activated, driving the push plate 31 to enter from the working channel 103, pass through the entire receiving space 101, and eject the goods from the unloading channel 102 on the other side.

[0035] Furthermore, for safety and dust prevention, in some possible embodiments, the operating channel 103 and / or unloading channel 102 are provided with an openable and closable door structure 12. The door structure 12 is a swing door. The swing door is connected to the channel by hinges. When the unloading drive 32 is not activated, the door is closed under its own weight or spring action, effectively preventing dust from entering the receiving box 11 and also preventing goods from accidentally sliding out due to shaking during transportation. When the unloading drive 32 is activated, the push plate 31 begins to move and contact the door, and the door swings open around the hinge under the force of the push plate 31, providing a passage for the push plate 31 and the goods. After the goods are completely pushed out, the door automatically closes under its own weight or the action of the return spring, returning to the initial dustproof and safety protection state.

[0036] In other possible embodiments, the unloading device 3 and the door structure 12 can also adopt other structural forms. For example, the unloading device 3 can adopt a pull-out structure, by setting a pull-out baffle on one side of the receiving box 11, and using an electric or pneumatic device to drive the baffle to be pulled out, so as to realize the unloading of goods. The door structure 12 can also be designed as a sliding door. The sliding door is installed on both sides of the passage through a slide rail. When unloading is required, the sliding door slides to one side along the slide rail to open, providing passage space for goods and push plate 31. After unloading is completed, the sliding door slides back to its original position to close the passage.

[0037] To better understand this utility model, the following is combined with... Figures 1 to 6 The technical solution of this utility model is described in detail below: During operation, the drone carrying the tobacco package flies to the delivery port 41 of the logistics box 4 and delivers the goods to the receiving station located directly below the delivery port 41. At this time, the receiving box 11 is connected to the first platform 211, and the first platform 211 is at its highest position. The top cover of the receiving box 11 is open, and the goods fall smoothly into the receiving space 101 inside the receiving box 11. After the goods fall in, the top cover quickly closes, firmly confining the goods within the receiving space 101. Next, the drive motor 2123 of the first drive component 212 drives the ball screw 2121 to rotate, causing the nut 2122 sleeved on it to drive the first platform 211 to descend vertically, bringing the first platform 211 to the transition position.

[0038] Simultaneously, the second driving component 222 drives the second platform 221 to move horizontally, with the second platform 221 pre-moving to a position below the transition point. When the first platform 211, carrying the receiving box 11, descends to the transition point, the bottom of the receiving box 11 lands on the upper surface of the second platform 221. The electromagnetic latch of the second platform 221 engages in the slot on the bottom surface of the receiving box 11, securing the receiving box 11 firmly onto the second platform 221 through electromagnetic attraction. At the same time, the electromagnetic latch of the first platform 211 demagnetizes and releases the slot on the top surface of the receiving box 11. Subsequently, the first driving component 212 drives the first platform 211 to rise, causing the electromagnetic latch of the first platform 211 to disengage from the slot on the top of the receiving box 11. The second drive unit 222 drives the second platform 221 to move horizontally. When the receiving box 11 is transported to the unloading station by the second platform 221, the electric push rod starts to drive the push plate 31 to enter from the working channel 103 on one side of the receiving box 11, pass through the entire receiving space 101, and push the goods out from the unloading channel 102 on the other side, completing the transfer process of the goods.

[0039] This invention, by incorporating a receiving device 1, a transferring device 2, and an unloading device 3, allows the receiving device 1 to stably hold goods within its receiving space 101, preventing them from sliding, shifting, or tipping over due to inertia during transport. The transferring device 2, through the coordinated action of a first driving mechanism 21 and a second driving mechanism 22, enables precise vertical and horizontal movement of the receiving device 1, smoothly transferring goods from the receiving station to the unloading station. The unloading device 3, through the cooperation of a push plate 31 and an unloading drive component 32, pushes the goods out of the receiving space 101, completing the unloading process. Throughout the entire process, the goods remain stably supported and precisely controlled, greatly improving the stability and reliability of logistics distribution, and is particularly suitable for the distribution of high-value, fragile goods such as tobacco.
