Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cargo positioning technology, and in particular to an intelligent cargo positioning shelf for supply chain applications. Background Technology

[0002] As global supply chain integration accelerates, warehousing and logistics, as a core link in the supply chain, are facing ever-increasing demands for intelligent, efficient, and flexible cargo storage. Intelligent cargo positioning racks, as the core equipment in warehousing systems, not only need to achieve precise tracking of cargo locations but also need to adapt to the diverse specifications of goods in the supply chain, ranging from lightweight small items to large items, with height differences reaching several times.

[0003] Currently, supply chain warehousing faces two core demands: first, maximizing space utilization to avoid wasted space due to mismatches between cargo height and shelf spacing; and second, improving operational efficiency to reduce time costs and errors caused by manual intervention. Against this backdrop, shelves with both precise positioning and adaptive adjustment functions have become a key direction for industry upgrading.

[0004] Because the shelf spacing cannot be adjusted as needed, when storing short items, a large amount of redundant space will be generated between the shelves, resulting in a waste of vertical storage capacity. When storing tall items, the shelf spacing may be insufficient to store them, or the shelves may need to be disassembled, which will reduce the stability of the shelf structure and make it extremely unsuitable. Existing adjustable shelves (such as bolt-fixed shelves) require manual measurement of the height of the goods, manual disassembly, relocation, and re-fixing of the shelves. The operation process is cumbersome and requires interruption of warehousing operations, which is contrary to the automation concept of intelligent positioning and cannot meet the needs of fast turnover in the supply chain.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new intelligent goods positioning shelf for the supply chain to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides an intelligent cargo positioning shelf for the supply chain.

[0007] This utility model provides an intelligent cargo positioning rack for supply chain, including a rack base, four rack support columns, a rack top plate, and multiple cargo positioning plates. The four rack support columns are located between the four corners of the rack base and the rack top plate. A cargo positioning top plate and a cargo positioning bottom plate are slidably fitted onto the uppermost and lowermost outer sides of the four rack support columns, respectively. Multiple cargo positioning middle plates are slidably fitted onto the middle outer positions of the four rack support columns. One of the cargo positioning middle plates is fixedly mounted on the outer side of the four rack support columns. A connecting rod assembly is provided between the cargo positioning top plate, cargo positioning bottom plate, and multiple cargo positioning middle plates on both sides. A transmission assembly for moving the multiple cargo positioning plates closer together and further apart is provided inside the cargo positioning top plate, cargo positioning bottom plate, and multiple cargo positioning middle plates. Four positioning plate limiting grooves are respectively formed in a cross shape at the top of the cargo positioning top plate, cargo positioning bottom plate, and multiple cargo positioning middle plates. Each cargo positioning plate is slidably positioned inside the positioning plate limiting groove.

[0008] Preferably, the first linkage assembly includes two bottom plate connecting shafts, two top plate connecting shafts, and multiple middle plate connecting shafts. Two bottom plate connecting shafts are respectively provided on both sides of the cargo positioning bottom plate, two top plate connecting shafts are respectively provided on both sides of the cargo positioning top plate, and two middle plate connecting shafts are respectively provided on both sides of each cargo positioning middle plate. A second linkage assembly is provided between the two bottom plate connecting shafts, the two top plate connecting shafts, and the multiple middle plate connecting shafts.

[0009] Preferably, the linkage assembly two includes four bottom plate transmission links, four top plate transmission links, and multiple cross transmission links. Two bottom plate transmission links are rotatably sleeved on the outer side of each bottom plate connecting shaft, and the two bottom plate transmission links are symmetrically arranged. Two top plate transmission links are rotatably sleeved on the outer side of each top plate connecting shaft, and the two top plate transmission links are symmetrically arranged. Two cross transmission links are rotatably sleeved on the outer side of each middle plate connecting shaft. The multiple cross transmission links are connected end to end. The two bottommost cross transmission links are rotatably connected to the two bottom plate transmission links, and the two topmost cross transmission links are rotatably connected to the two top plate transmission links.

[0010] Preferably, the first transmission component includes a transmission motor, a motor shaft, and a linkage plate. The transmission motor is located at the bottom end of the cargo positioning plate. The output end of the transmission motor is connected to one end of the motor shaft. The other end of the motor shaft passes through the cargo positioning plate and is rotatably connected to its inner top wall. The linkage plate is sleeved on the outside of the motor shaft. The second transmission component is provided between the linkage plate and the four cargo positioning plates.

[0011] Preferably, the transmission assembly 2 includes four transmission shafts 2, four transmission crank arms, four transmission shafts 1 and four transmission plates. The four corners of the linkage plate are respectively provided with four transmission shafts 2, the bottom ends of the four cargo positioning plates are respectively provided with four transmission plates, and the ends of the four transmission plates away from the four cargo positioning plates are provided with four transmission shafts 1. The four transmission shafts 1 and the four transmission shafts 2 are rotatably connected to the four transmission crank arms.

[0012] Preferably, two electric cylinders are respectively located on both sides of the top of the shelf base, and the output ends of the two electric cylinders are respectively connected to both sides of the top of the cargo positioning base plate.

[0013] Compared with related technologies, the intelligent goods positioning shelf for supply chain provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects: Two electric cylinders drive the cargo positioning base plate to complete the lifting and lowering action. In conjunction with the linkage of the base plate drive linkage, cross drive linkage, and top plate drive linkage, the interlayer spacing of the cargo positioning middle plate and the lifting and lowering action of the cargo positioning top plate can be driven simultaneously. This achieves linkage-based adaptive adjustment of the interlayer spacing of multi-layer load-bearing plates. For taller goods, the spacing of the base plate drive linkage, cross drive linkage, and top plate drive linkage is automatically increased to meet storage requirements. For shorter goods, the spacing of the base plate drive linkage, cross drive linkage, and top plate drive linkage can be reduced by reversing the operation. This completely avoids the problem of vertical space waste caused by the fixed layer spacing of traditional racks, greatly improves the utilization rate of vertical storage space, and can adapt to the batch storage needs of goods of different specifications and heights in the supply chain system.

[0019] In the specific implementation process, such as Figure 2As shown, the system includes a first linkage assembly comprising two base plate connecting shafts 301, two top plate connecting shafts 501, and multiple middle plate connecting shafts 401. Two base plate connecting shafts 301 are respectively provided on both sides of the cargo positioning base plate 3, two top plate connecting shafts 501 are respectively provided on both sides of the cargo positioning top plate 5, and two middle plate connecting shafts 401 are respectively provided on both sides of each cargo positioning middle plate 4.

The second linkage assembly includes four base plate transmission connecting rods 7, four top plate transmission connecting rods 6, and multiple... The cross-drive linkage 8 has two bottom plate drive linkages 7 rotatably sleeved on the outside of each bottom plate connecting shaft 301, and the two bottom plate drive linkages 7 are symmetrically arranged. Two top plate drive linkages 6 are rotatably sleeved on the outside of each top plate connecting shaft 501, and the two top plate drive linkages 6 are symmetrically arranged.

[0020] In the specific implementation process, such as Figure 3-4 As shown, the transmission assembly includes a transmission motor 10, a motor shaft 902, and a linkage plate 9. The transmission motor 10 is located at the bottom of the cargo positioning plate 4. The output end of the transmission motor 10 is connected to one end of the motor shaft 902, and the other end of the motor shaft 902 passes through the cargo positioning plate 4 and is rotatably connected to its inner top wall. The linkage plate 9 is sleeved on the outside of the motor shaft 902. A second transmission assembly is provided between the linkage plate 9 and the four cargo positioning plates 906. The second transmission assembly includes four second transmission shafts 907, four transmission crank arms 903, four first transmission shafts 904, and four... A transmission plate 905, four transmission shafts 907 are respectively provided at the four corners of the linkage plate 9, four transmission plates 905 are respectively provided at the bottom of the four cargo positioning plates 906, four transmission shafts 904 are provided at the end of the four transmission plates 905 away from the four cargo positioning plates 906, four transmission crank arms 903 are rotatably connected between the four transmission shafts 904 and the four transmission shafts 907, and two electric cylinders 102 are respectively provided on both sides of the top of the shelf base 1, and the output ends of the two electric cylinders 102 are respectively connected to both sides of the top of the cargo positioning base plate 3.

The transmission motor 10 is started to drive the motor shaft 902 to drive the linkage plate 9 to rotate. The linkage plate 9 drives the four transmission crank arms 903 to rotate and move closer. Then, the four transmission crank arms 903 drive the four goods positioning plates 906 to move closer to each other along the four positioning plate limiting grooves 901 through the four transmission plates 905, so that the four goods positioning plates 906 position and fix the goods.

[0022] When carrying taller goods, the two electric cylinders 102 are activated to drive the goods positioning base plate 3 to descend along the four shelf support columns 2. The shelf support columns 2 drive the two base plate transmission links 7 to rotate closer to each other via the base plate connecting shaft 301. The two base plate transmission links 7 drive multiple cross transmission links 8 to rotate further away from each other. The multiple cross transmission links 8 push multiple goods positioning middle plates 4 to slide further away from each other along the four shelf support columns 2 via multiple middle plate connecting shafts 401. The two top cross transmission links 8 push the two top plate transmission links 6 to rotate closer to each other. Thus, the two top plate transmission links 6 push the goods positioning top plate 5 to rise along the four shelf support columns 2 via the top plate connecting shaft 501, which facilitates the storage of taller goods. By performing the upward operation in the opposite direction, the goods positioning base plate 3, multiple goods positioning middle plates 4 and goods positioning top plate 5 can be brought closer to each other, which facilitates the storage of shorter goods.
