Description

[0001] The invention relates to a method for loading a storage system of a motor vehicle with transported goods.

[0002] Storage systems for motor vehicles, especially delivery vehicles for transporting goods such as merchandise and packages, must ensure that the end customer can retrieve their goods from the vehicle's storage system (also called cargo space) without having to search for or unpack them. The goods could be, for example, a package or a single item. Therefore, storage systems with individual compartments for each item are known from the prior art to enable quick retrieval. Such compartments typically have several fixed dimensions, so that when loaded with goods of varying sizes, as is the case with packages, unused empty space is created within the storage system.A known solution is to dimension the storage compartments according to the volume of goods transported, based on experience, in order to load the storage system as efficiently as possible and avoid empty volumes.

[0003] US 5 931 262 A describes a delivery vehicle with a cargo space with several height-adjustable loading levels.

[0004] DE 10 2012 205 812 A1 describes a storage system for a transport vehicle with a supporting structure and shelves for goods, wherein the position of the shelves relative to the supporting structure can be changed. The storage system is designed as a paternoster lift.

[0005] Loading the storage systems in motor vehicles known from the prior art is cumbersome and time-consuming; in particular, large empty volumes occur in the storage systems.

[0006] US 2010 / 0129184A1 reveals a vehicle for the transport and storage of items.

[0007] DE 10 2015 112 942 A1 reveals a delivery vehicle.

[0008] DE 19 36 978 A discloses a fully automated distribution center as a temporary storage place for goods and as a distribution point for these goods to the warehouses.

[0009] The object of the invention is to provide a simple, fast and efficient method for loading a storage system, thereby reducing empty volumes in the storage system.

[0010] The aforementioned problem is solved by the subject matter of the patent claims, in particular by a method according to claim 1. Further advantages and details of the invention will become apparent from the dependent claims, the description, and the drawings.

[0011] According to a first aspect of the invention, the problem is solved by a method for loading a storage system of a motor vehicle with transport goods, wherein the storage system comprises a storage container and at least one storage rack arranged in the storage container for storing the transport goods, wherein the storage rack has several spaced-apart shelves and the storage container has a loading side on which loading sections of the shelves for positioning the transport goods are located, wherein the method further comprises the steps: (a) tilting the storage container relative to a horizontal plane by a first angle of inclination, such that the shelves are inclined by the first angle of inclination relative to the horizontal plane, (b) positioning transport goods in the loading sections of the shelves inclined by the first angle of inclination,and (c) loading the storage rack with the transport goods positioned on the shelves by sliding the positioned transport goods away from the loading sections into the storage container under the influence of gravity on the shelves. Furthermore, information relating to the transport goods, including authentication of the transport goods, the position of the transport goods in the storage rack and / or the dimensions of the transport goods, is stored in a data storage device of a control device of an access system of an output system of the motor vehicle, wherein the access system enables access to the transport goods stored in the storage system.

[0012] Tilting the storage container also tilts the shelves inside, allowing goods and packages to slide easily and without external support into the container. This enables multiple items to be loaded onto a single shelf. The horizontal plane is the floor level on which the storage container or vehicle can stand. This results in efficient loading and reduces empty space.

[0013] The storage rack is attached to the storage container, for example, to a side wall, a top wall, and / or a bottom wall. The storage rack may, for example, have a support structure to which the shelves are attached. The shelves may be attached to the support structure using shelf fixings. Alternatively, the shelves may be attached directly to the storage container, for example, to a side wall, using shelf fixings. The loading area of ​​a shelf is, in particular, the loading surface of the shelf located on or near the loading side. The loading side of the storage container may, for example, have one or more doors or roller doors to facilitate loading the goods and to allow the storage container to be closed.

[0014] The initial tilt angle can be, for example, in the range of 1° to 45°, particularly in the range of 3° to 35°, and furthermore, particularly in the range of 5° to 25°. This enables fast and damage-free loading.

[0015] Preferably, at least one of the shelves is arranged in a height-adjustable manner relative to at least one other shelf, in particular an automatically height-adjustable manner. In particular, the shelves can be height-adjustable relative to each other. Furthermore, the method can include the step of height-adjusting, in particular automatically height-adjusting, at least one of the shelves relative to at least one of the other shelves. This makes it possible to set a shelf height, i.e., a distance between two spaced-apart, i.e., stacked, shelves. This allows for even more efficient loading of the storage system. For automatic height adjustment, the storage rack can, for example, have a lifting device, in particular with an electric motor, which enables the automatic height adjustment of at least one of the shelves.

[0016] Preferably, the storage container is tilted relative to the horizontal plane by the first tilt angle by moving it onto a ramp. Such a ramp can be easily driven over by the vehicle and therefore requires no external aids. Alternatively, for example, the storage container could be lifted by an automatic lifting device to set the first tilt angle.

[0017] According to the invention, information regarding the transported goods, including authentication of the transported goods, the position of the transported goods in the storage rack, and / or the dimensions of the transported goods, is stored in a data storage device of a control device of an access system of a dispensing system of the motor vehicle, wherein the access system enables access to the transported goods stored in the storage system. Accordingly, the storage system can be part of the dispensing system. This enables authorized and precise access to the transported goods stored in the storage system by means of the access system, thereby ensuring efficient loading of the storage system.

[0018] Furthermore, the information regarding the goods being transported is preferably processed by the control device in such a way that the control device determines which of the goods is positioned in which of the loading sections of the shelves inclined by the first angle of inclination and / or controls an automatically adjustable height between at least two shelves. For example, the control device knows the shelf heights of the individual shelves, so that it can sort the goods into the appropriate shelves according to their dimensions. The control device can also adjust the shelf heights by changing the distances between the shelves, thereby reducing previously unused empty space between shelves and, conversely, creating storage volume for larger goods being transported.

[0019] It is preferred that the positioning of the transported goods in the loading sections of the shelves inclined at the first angle is achieved by means of several chutes or roller conveyors arranged at the loading sections of the shelves. One chute or roller conveyor can be arranged at each shelf. Furthermore, one or more automatically height-adjustable chutes or roller conveyors can be provided, which can be positioned at different or all of the shelves by means of automatic height adjustment. The chutes or roller conveyors allow for easy positioning on the shelves.

[0020] It is further preferred that the chutes or roller conveyors are inclined at a second angle relative to the horizontal plane. The second angle of inclination can, for example, correspond to the first angle of inclination. In particular, the second angle of inclination can correspond to the first angle of inclination ± 10°. The second angle of inclination can, for example, be in the range of 1° to 45°, particularly in the range of 3° to 35°, and furthermore, particularly in the range of 5° to 25°. This also makes it possible to transport the goods along the chutes or roller conveyors solely by gravity.

[0021] It is also preferred that the goods be transported towards the chutes or roller conveyors by means of at least one transport conveyor, in particular a conveyor belt. For example, the at least one transport conveyor can run transversely, in particular perpendicularly, to the chutes or lead towards the chutes or roller conveyors.

[0022] It is still preferred that the goods be pushed from the at least one conveyor onto the chute or roller conveyor by means of at least one pusher. Additionally or alternatively, the goods can be transported from the at least one conveyor onto the chute or roller conveyor by means of at least one robotic arm. The pusher can move the respective goods from the at least one conveyor onto the appropriate chute or roller conveyor to load the storage system correctly. In particular, one pusher can be provided for each chute or roller conveyor.

[0023] Preferably, the storage container is a trailer or a vehicle body attached to a motor vehicle. The motor vehicle can, in particular, be an autonomous delivery vehicle, and especially an autonomous parcel delivery vehicle. An access system can be arranged on the outside of the motor vehicle or its body. This makes it possible to access the goods or parcels loaded by the motor vehicle from the outside without having to enter the vehicle.

[0024] In the following, an access system is described in more detail which, in conjunction with the storage system which is loaded by the method according to the invention, can advantageously be used as an output system.

[0025] The access system preferably comprises a gate, a frame surrounding the gate, two horizontal gate closing segments, two vertical gate closing segments, and a control device. The horizontal gate closing segments can be arranged opposite each other in horizontal directions by means of a horizontal force transducer mounted on the frame, and the vertical gate closing segments can be arranged opposite each other in vertical directions perpendicular to the horizontal directions by means of a vertical force transducer mounted on the frame. The horizontal gate closing segments can be moved in the horizontal directions by means of at least one horizontal drive of the access system, and the vertical gate closing segments can be moved from an open to a closed position in the vertical directions by means of at least one vertical drive of the access system, so that the gate can be opened and closed.The control device can be coupled to the at least one horizontal drive and the at least one vertical drive and be configured to open an access opening of variable position and size between the horizontal gate closing segments and the vertical gate closing segments for access through the gate by controlling the at least one horizontal drive and the at least one vertical drive.

[0026] With such an access system, it is possible to provide access openings of variable position and size, with access outside these openings being blocked by horizontal and vertical gate locking segments. This allows a customer in a dispensing system with such an access system to have precise access to the goods they have requested, particularly packages, while preventing access to other customers' packages. Accordingly, it is possible to store packages with only small empty volumes in the storage system, which can then be accessed and dispensed using the access system.

[0027] The access gate of the access system can be understood, in particular, as an opening surrounded by the frame, which provides access to a space located behind the horizontal and vertical gate locking segments, in which, in particular, a storage system for packages may be arranged. Accordingly, the access opening is a section of the gate at a specific position within the gate and of a specific size relative to the gate.

[0028] The frame can have at least two frame elements, which may be arranged opposite each other. Horizontal and vertical force transducers are arranged on the frame elements. The frame can, for example, have four frame elements, with each pair of frame elements facing each other. The frame elements can be connected to one another. The frame elements can, for example, be designed as walls. These walls can, for example, be side walls of the vehicle body or the vehicle itself.

[0029] The horizontal and / or vertical door closing segments can be designed, for example, as roller doors, roller curtains, louvered curtains, roller shutters, tarpaulins, reinforced tarpaulins, and / or doors. The two horizontal and the two vertical door closing segments are arranged one behind the other. In other words, the two horizontal door closing segments are positioned behind the two vertical door closing segments, or vice versa, in a direction perpendicular to the vertical and horizontal directions. Accordingly, the horizontal door closing segments overlap with the vertical door closing segments in an area of ​​the door outside the access opening.

[0030] The horizontal force transducers and / or vertical force transducers may, for example, include ropes, rods, pulleys and / or levers, or be designed as such.

[0031] The at least one horizontal drive is coupled to at least one of the horizontal force converters for power transmission, and / or the at least one vertical drive is coupled to at least one of the vertical force converters for power transmission. The horizontal drive and / or the vertical drive can be, in particular, electric drives, especially with an electric motor.

[0032] Preferably, the horizontal gate closing segments have a common horizontal drive and / or the vertical gate closing segments have a common vertical drive. In particular, only one of the horizontal gate closing segments can have a horizontal drive and only one of the vertical gate closing segments can have a vertical drive. This allows both horizontal gate closing segments to be driven by only one horizontal drive and both vertical gate closing segments to be driven by only one vertical drive, thus eliminating the need for additional drives and reducing the manufacturing costs of the access system.

[0033] It is further preferred that the access system includes at least one coupling system configured to couple the two horizontal gate closing segments or the two vertical gate closing segments. Particularly preferably, the access system includes a first coupling system for coupling the two horizontal gate closing segments and a second coupling system for coupling the two vertical gate closing segments. Coupling the respective gate closing segments ensures that they can only be moved together. This allows the respective gate closing segments to be moved together, particularly with a common drive, enabling efficient and rapid opening and closing at low manufacturing costs for the access system.

[0034] It is further preferred that the at least one coupling system has a first coupling element which is arranged on one of the two horizontal gate closing segments or on one of the two vertical gate closing segments, and that the at least one coupling system has a second coupling element which is arranged on the other of the two horizontal gate closing segments or on the other of the two vertical gate closing segments, wherein the first coupling element is designed corresponding to the second coupling element.Particularly preferably, a first coupling system comprises a first coupling element arranged on one of the two horizontal gate closing segments and a second coupling element arranged on the other of the two horizontal gate closing segments, wherein the first coupling element is configured correspondingly to the second coupling element. A second coupling system comprises a first coupling element arranged on one of the two vertical gate closing segments and a second coupling element arranged on the other of the two vertical gate closing segments, wherein the first coupling element is configured correspondingly to the second coupling element. "Corresponding" in the sense of the invention means that the corresponding coupling elements can be coupled together for a common process and uncoupled for a separate process.This enables a secure and efficient coupling for the purpose of a common operation of the respective gate closing segments. The first coupling element can, for example, be designed as a coupling pin. The second coupling element can, for example, be designed as a pin receptacle or a coupling rod with such a pin receptacle.

[0035] Preferably, the at least one coupling system has a third coupling element that is fixed in place, in particular not arranged on one of the horizontal or vertical gate closing segments, wherein the third coupling element is designed corresponding to the second coupling element. The third coupling element can, for example, be arranged on the frame, on the dispensing system, on a storage system of the dispensing system, or on a motor vehicle, in particular on a wall of the motor vehicle. The third coupling element enables the respective gate closing segment to be fixed in a specific position with the second coupling element. This prevents the gate closing segment from moving away from this position, for example, by falling downwards due to gravity or being moved by external forces.

[0036] Furthermore, it is preferably the case that the second coupling element comprises a first coupling means and a second coupling means, wherein the first coupling means is configured corresponding to the first coupling element and the second coupling means is configured corresponding to the third coupling element. This facilitates the simple switching between coupling the second coupling element with the first coupling element and coupling with the third coupling element, whereby the second coupling element is decoupled from the first coupling element. The first coupling means and the second coupling means can, for example, be arranged opposite each other on the second coupling element. For instance, the second coupling element can be configured as a coupling rod with the two coupling means at its ends.The coupling rod can, for example, be curved, in particular Z-shaped or essentially Z-shaped. The first coupling element of the coupling rod can be designed as a pin receptacle.

[0037] Furthermore, the third coupling element preferably has several third coupling means that correspond to the second coupling element, or the third coupling element is preferably designed to be variably coupled. In other words, the second coupling element can be coupled at different positions of the third coupling element. "Variably coupled" means that the second coupling element can be coupled at practically any position of the third coupling element. The third coupling element can be designed to be variably coupled by, for example, having a hydraulic damper with a receptacle, in particular a pin receptacle, for the second coupling element in order to provide continuous coupling positions. The receptacle can be continuously moved along a path of the hydraulic damper by means of the hydraulic damper to provide a practically arbitrary coupling position for the second coupling element.This makes it possible to fix the respective gate closing segment with the second coupling element at different horizontal or vertical positions, so that access openings can be opened in virtually any position.

[0038] Preferably, the horizontal gate closing segments are spaced apart from each other in directions perpendicular to the vertical and horizontal directions, and / or the vertical gate closing segments are spaced apart from each other in directions perpendicular to the vertical and horizontal directions, with each horizontal gate closing segment being movably coupled to a horizontal drive by means of a conveying element, and / or each vertical gate closing segment being movably coupled to a horizontal drive by means of a conveying element. Accordingly, the respective gate closing segments can be moved independently of each other to provide maximum flexibility. The conveying elements can be, for example, ropes, belts, chains, or straps.

[0039] A dispensing system for distributing goods from a motor vehicle can include an access system and a storage system. The access system can be arranged relative to the storage system such that access to the storage system is granted when the access system is accessed through the gate. The dispensing system can have an access system on each opposite side. An input device of the dispensing system can be coupled to the control device. The input device can be configured to receive input from a customer and, based on the input, instruct the control device to open an access opening of a specific position and size.

[0040] The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawing. All features arising from the claims, the description, or the figure, including construction details, can be essential to the invention, both individually and in any combination. The figures schematically show: Fig. 1 an embodiment of a method according to the invention for loading a storage system of a motor vehicle with transport goods, Fig. 2 in a front view an access system with an open access opening, and Fig. 3 in a top view a motor vehicle with the storage system made of Fig. 1 and the access system from Fig. 2.

[0041] Elements with the same function and mode of operation are in the Fig. Figures 1 to 3 are each labeled with the same reference symbols. Identical elements in the figures are indicated by a dot after the reference symbol and numbered consecutively.

[0042] Fig. Figure 1 shows an embodiment of a method according to the invention for loading a storage system 30 of a motor vehicle 50 (not shown here) with transported goods P. The storage system 30 has a storage container 31, which in this case is designed as a trailer or articulated vehicle of a motor vehicle. Fig. Figure 1 shows a view inside storage container 31. Not visible from the outside is an access system 10 arranged on storage container 31, which is located in Fig. Figure 2 shows that the storage system 30 and the access system 10 are part of an output system 40 for dispensing the transported goods P, as shown in Figure 2. Fig. Figure 3 shows that the dispensing system 40 can, in particular, be a mobile packing station for dispensing parcels. Goods P can be stored in the storage system 30 of the dispensing system 40 and dispensed using the access system 10.

[0043] The storage system 30 comprises the storage rack 32 shown, with several shelves 33.1, 33.2, 33.3, 33.4, 33.5, 33.6 arranged one above the other. The shelves 33.1, 33.2, 33.3, 33.4, 33.5, 33.6 are attached to rack fixings 34, of which the rack fixings 34.1, 34.2, 34.3 for shelf 33.1 are designated by way of example. The rack fixings 34 can, for example, be attached to a [missing information] as shown in [missing information]. Fig. The shelf support structure 35 shown in Figure 3 is arranged within the storage container 31. The shelves 33.1, 33.2, 33.3, 33.4, 33.5, 33.6 are automatically height-adjustable at their respective intervals, corresponding to shelf heights D.1, D.2, D.3, D.4, D.5, D.6, in the direction of a height Z of the storage container 31. This allows different shelf heights D.1, D.2, D.3, D.4, D.5, D.6 to be set as partial heights of the height Z of the storage container 31.

[0044] In a first step of loading the storage system 30 with transport goods P, the storage container 31 is inclined relative to the horizontal plane B.1, in this case the floor on which the storage container 31 stands. For this purpose, the storage container 31, designed as a trailer or articulated vehicle, is positioned on a ramp 61 at a first angle of inclination α relative to the horizontal plane B.1. Using a line parallel to the horizontal plane B.1, namely line B.2, it is shown that the shelves 33.1, 33.2, 33.3, 33.4, 33.5, 33.6 are also inclined at the first angle of inclination α relative to the horizontal plane B.1.

[0045] In a second step, transport goods P are positioned in loading sections 33.1a, 33.2a, 33.3a, 33.4a, 33.5a, 33.6a, which are the existing loading surfaces of the shelves 33.1, 33.2, 33.3, 33.4, 33.5, 33.6 on a loading side 31a of the storage container 31. Likewise, as shown, transport goods P can also be positioned in a loading section 36a of a floor surface 36 of the storage container 31, which is also inclined by the first angle α relative to the horizontal plane B.1. Loading is carried out using a loading system 60, which includes the ramp 61. The loading system 60 further comprises chutes 62.1, 62.2, 62.3, 62.4, 62.5, 62.6, which can alternatively also be designed as roller conveyors, one of which is arranged on each of the shelves 33.1, 33.2, 33.3, 33.4, 33.5, 33.6 and on the base 36 of the storage container 31. The chutes 62.1, 62.2, 62.3, 62.4, 62.5, 62.The 6 are also inclined by a second angle of inclination β, which in this case corresponds to the first angle of inclination α. ​​A conveyor 63, which in this case is designed as a conveyor belt, transports the goods P from a storage area (not shown) to the chutes 62.1, 62.2, 62.3, 62.4, 62.5, 62.6. A pusher 64.1, 64.2, 64.3, 64.4, 64.5, 64.6 is arranged for pushing a piece of goods P onto one of the chutes 62.1, 62.2, 62.3, 62.4, 62.5, 62.6.

[0046] In a data storage device 19a of a control device 19 of the output system 40, information concerning the authentication of the transported goods P and the dimensions of the transported goods P is stored. The information regarding the authentication and dimensions of the transported goods P may, for example, have been scanned or determined in the warehouse and transmitted to the data storage device 19a, or it may have been scanned or determined only on the transport conveyor 63 and transmitted to the data storage device 19a. Based on the dimensions of a transport item P and the shelf heights D.1, D.2, D.3, D.4, D.5, D.6, the control device 19 determines which chute 62.1, 62.2, 62.3, 62.4, 62.5, 62.6 the respective transport item P is to be pushed to by means of one of the slides 64.1, 64.2, 64.3, 64.4, 64.5, 64.6 (control signal S.1). The control device 19 can also control the shelf heights D.1, D.2, D.3, D.4, D.5, D.6 (control signal S.1).2), for example to create space for a particularly large transport item P, which is transported on the conveyor 63, and to minimize empty volumes.

[0047] Fig. Figure 2 shows a side view of an access system 10 with an access opening 15 of a first position and size. The access system 10 has a frame 12 that surrounds a gate 11. The frame 12 can, for example, be formed by the side walls of the storage container 31. Fig. The gate 11 is formed by two horizontal gate closing segments 13.1, 13.2 and two vertical gate closing segments 14.1, 14.2, extending to the area of ​​the access opening 15 and overlapping each other. In this case, the vertical gate closing segments 14.1, 14.2 are arranged in front of the horizontal gate closing segments 13.1, 13.2, although a reverse arrangement is also possible.

[0048] The horizontal gate closing segments 13.1, 13.2 and the vertical gate closing segments 14.1, 14.2 are designed as roller gates. The horizontal gate closing segments 13.1, 13.2 are movable relative to and away from each other in horizontal directions H.1, H.2. The vertical gate closing segments 14.1, 14.2 are movable relative to and away from each other in vertical directions V.1, V.2. The access opening 15, of the first position and size, which are variable, is located between the horizontal gate closing segments 13.1, 13.2 and the vertical gate closing segments 14.1, 14.2, allowing access through the gate 11. Through this access opening 15, for example a package can be removed from one of the shelves 33.1, 33.2, 33.3, 33.4, 33.5, 33.6, which may be arranged behind the gate 11.

[0049] Fig. Figure 3 shows a top view of an embodiment of a motor vehicle 50. The motor vehicle 50 is designed as a delivery vehicle. The motor vehicle 50 has a dispensing system 40, which is arranged as a vehicle body on the motor vehicle 50. The dispensing system 40 has access systems 10.1, 10.2 according to the invention on two opposing side walls of the storage container 31 of the vehicle body, which run in a direction of travel of the motor vehicle 50 indicated by an arrow, as shown in the first embodiment. Fig.The roof of storage container 31 is not shown in this top view to allow a view into the interior of storage container 31. Only the horizontal door closing segments 13.1, 13.2, 13.3, 13.4 of the access systems 10.1, 10.2 are shown. Behind the access systems 10.1, 10.2, storage shelves 32.1, 32.2 are arranged within the dispensing system 40, which can be accessed by means of the access systems 10.1, 10.2. A control device 19 of the access systems 10.1, 10.2, not shown in this figure, is coupled to an input device 41 of the dispensing system 40. The input device 41 is arranged on an exterior surface of the vehicle 50.

[0050] When a customer enters a code, scans a barcode, or otherwise authorizes themselves at the input device 41, the input device 41 sends a packet information signal to the control device 19. The control device 19 processes the packet information signal by comparing it with a data storage device of the control device 19, which contains the position of the packet requested by the customer in the storage system 30. After locating the packet in the storage system 30, the control device 19 sends a control signal to one of the access systems 10.1 or 10.2 to open an access port 15 at the location of the requested packet, thus granting the customer access to the packet. The control device 19 can also send an indication signal to the input device 41 or to an unseen information device of the output system 40, indicating or informing the customer of the location of their packet.
