[0039] The loading passage 4 and the unloading passage 5 are laid to edges of the freight floor 2 to be adjacent to the train. The cargo in the warehouse 13 may be directly conveyed via the freight passage to the side of the train for loading, and the cargo unloaded from the train may also be conveyed to the warehouse 13 via the freight passage and is then transported to the outside of the platform from the warehouse 13.
[0040] The loading passage 4 and the unloading passage 5 are respectively arranged in two platforms, that is, the loading passage 4 is arranged in the platform at one side of the train,
- 5 and the unloading passage 5 is arranged in the platform at the other side of the train, and the loading passage 4 and the unloading passage 5 are located at two sides of the train. The freight passages are provided at the two sides of the train, such that cargo loading and unloading can be performed at the same time, which improves the efficiency of cargo entry and exit and shortens the handling time required by each station.
[0041] The handling apparatus 6 is arranged in the platform at one side of the train, and the handling apparatus 6 is configured to push, in the width direction of the train, the cargo on the loading passage 4 into a cargo hold of the train to load the cargo.
[0042] The handling apparatus 6 is configured to push, in the width direction of the train, the cargo in the train cargo hold out of train, and the cargo is pushed into the unloading passage 5, and is conveyed out of the platform via the unloading passage 5, thus, the cargo is unloaded. Or, while the handling apparatus 6 pushes the cargo into the cargo hold, the cargo previously in the cargo hold is pushed out of the cargo hold to the unloading passage 5 by the cargo entering the train cargo hold, and the cargo is conveyed out of the platform via the unloading passage 5, thus, the cargo is unloaded.
[0043] By configuring the automatic handling apparatus 6 using a push-in and push-out approach, cargo is pushed into a carriage from one side of the train and pushed out of the carriage from the other side of the train, thereby realizing an automatic handling, which further improves the handling efficiency. Moreover, the push-in and push-out handling approach features high efficiency and small space occupation.
[0044] As shown in Figure 3, in this embodiment, the loading passage 4 preferably includes a part of an annular circulation passage. The loading passage 4 includes a loading conveyor
4-1 and a connection conveyor. The loading conveyor 4-1 is arranged adjacent to the train in the length direction of the train. The loading conveyor 4-1 is a part of an annular circulation passage or is connected to the annular circulation passage. In this embodiment, the loading conveyor 4-1 is preferably a part of the annular circulation passage. The connection conveyor is configured to connect the loading conveyor 4-1 to the warehouse 13, the loading conveyor 4-1 and the connection conveyor form the annular circulation passage, and the cargo may be cyclically conveyed on the loading passage 4. The annular circulation passage is arranged close to the warehouse 13 or a part of the annular circulation passage is arranged in the warehouse 13. In this embodiment, a part of the connection conveyor is preferably arranged in the warehouse 13.
[0045] By providing the annular circulation passage, the cargo may be pushed repeatedly for several times by the annular circulation passage till it is finally pushed into the train in a case that the cargo cannot be accurately pushed into the train by one time.
[0046] The loading conveyor is arranged at an edge of the freight floor 1 and is arranged adjacent to a side of a train track 7. The loading conveyor is arranged to run along a whole length of the train in the length direction of the train. A foundation is provided at the bottom of the loading conveyor. In the case that the loading conveyor is built on the foundation, a surface of the loading conveyor is flush with a floor of the train cargo hold, which facilitates cargo handling.
[0047] The loading conveyor includes multiple lateral loading conveyors 4-1 and multiple free loading conveyors 4-2.
[0048] Specifically, the lateral loading conveyor 4-1 conveys in the length direction of the train. The free loading conveyor 4-2 is arranged at a door of the train cargo hold, and it conveys in the width direction of the train or in the length direction of the train. The free loading conveyor 4-2 is provided at the door of the train cargo hold, and the lateral loading conveyor 4-1 is provided between two adjacent free loading conveyors 4-2.
[0049] In this embodiment, the lateral loading conveyor 4-1 is embodied as rollers or a crawler belt with a power source, and the cargo can be displaced by the rotation of the rollers or the crawler belt. The free loading conveyor 4-2 is embodied as multiple balls with a power source, and the cargo can be displaced in the length or width direction of the train by the rotation of the balls, thereby not only achieving the displacement in the length direction of the train for conveyance, but also achieving the displacement in the width direction of the train for loading.
[0050] Or, the free loading conveyor 4-2 includes multiple balls and a ball conveyor under the balls, and the ball conveyor is equipped with power. Driven by the ball conveyor, the balls themselves can be displaced, thereby displacing the cargo on the balls in the length direction of the train. After being parked at the door of the train cargo hold, the cargo is pushed by the handling apparatus 6 to be displaced in the width direction of the train for loading.
[0051] Multiple rollers form a group of conveyor plates, and the conveyor plates are
-7arranged side by side to form the free loading conveyor 4-2.
[0052] The cargo is loaded into a container 11 in the warehouse 13, and the container 11 is conveyed to the loading conveyor after being placed on the connection conveyor and is conveyed in the length direction of the train by the lateral loading conveyor 4-1. The serial number of the carriage for the container 11 to be placed in is determined by identifying the identification code on the container 11. The container 11 is parked at the door of the cargo hold of the specified carriage and is loaded into the train cargo hold.
[0053] With the specific structure of the above-described loading passage 4, the cargo can be automatically conveyed to the train after exiting from the warehouse 13, thereby improving the degree of automation of handling.
[0054] In this embodiment, the unloading passage 5 includes multiple widthwise unloading conveyors 5-1 and multiple lateral unloading conveyors 5-2.
[0055] The widthwise unloading conveyor 5-1 is arranged at the door of the train cargo hold, and is arranged to be tilted, with a portion close to the door being at a large height, and the widthwise unloading conveyor 5-1 conveys in the width direction of the train. The lateral unloading conveyor 5-2 is connected to an end, away from the train, of the widthwise unloading conveyor 5-1, and the longitudinal unloading conveyor 5-2 is arranged in the length direction of the train to run along the whole length of the train, and conveys in the length direction of the train.
[0056] After the cargo is pushed out of the train, it is conveyed in the width direction of the train by the widthwise unloading conveyor 5-1 to the lateral unloading conveyor 5-2, and is conveyed by the lateral unloading conveyor 5-2 to be discharged out of the platform. In this embodiment, a concourse region is provided at the end of the lateral unloading conveyor 5-2, and the cargo is automatically transported out of the platform by an automated guided vehicle 8.
[0057] The widthwise unloading conveyor 5-1 is embodied as multiple rollers arranged side by side. Multiple rollers are arranged side by side in the width direction of the train to form a roller plate, and multiple roller plates are arranged side by side in the length direction of the train. The length of the rollers matches with the size of the container 11, such that after the container 11 is pushed out of the train cargo hold, it can fall freely on the tilted widthwise
- 8 unloading conveyor 5-1. The rollers may not apply any power, and the cargo or container 11 can just be displaced under the gravitational force.
[0058] The lateral unloading conveyor 5-2 includes multiple crawler belts connected in a row with a power source, and the cargo or the container 11 is displaced by the crawler belts.
[0059] If the cargo or container 11 slides directly from the widthwise unloading conveyor
5-1 onto the lateral unloading conveyor 5-2, the cargo or container 11 may encounter a great resistance on the lateral unloading conveyor 5-2, and is not easy to fall upright on the lateral unloading conveyor 5-2, therefore, the lateral unloading conveyor 5-2 is provided with an unloading elevator 5-3.
[0060] In this embodiment, the unloading elevator 5-3 is arranged in a gap between two adjacent crawler belts. When the cargo or container 11 falls from the widthwise unloading conveyor 5-1, the unloading elevator 5-3 is raised. After the cargo slides onto the unloading elevator 5-3, the unloading elevator 5-3 is controlled to be lowered, and after the cargo or container 11 completely falls onto the crawler belts, the cargo is displaced in the length direction of the train by the crawler belts.
[0061] In order to prevent the cargo or container 11 from falling off the platform when sliding from the widthwise unloading conveyor 5-1 to the unloading elevator 5-3, the lateral unloading conveyor 5-2 is provided with a falling-off prevention barrier 5-4. The falling-off prevention barrier 5-4 is arranged on a side, away from the widthwise unloading conveyor 5-1, of the lateral unloading conveyor 5-2, and extends upwardly to be higher than the unloading elevator 5-3 when the unloading elevator 5-3 is raised, so as to prop the cargo or container 11 and prevent it from falling off and causing an accident.
[0062] The cargo or container 11 is pushed out from the train, and slides down by the gravitational force on the widthwise unloading conveyor 5-1 to the lateral unloading conveyor 5-2, and is conveyed by the lateral unloading conveyor 5-2 to the concourse region, and is automatically transported out of the platform by the automated guided vehicle 8.
[0063] With the specific structural design of the unloading passage 5 described above, the cargo or container 11 can be automatically conveyed from the train to the outside of the platform without any manual operation.
[0064] In this embodiment, the lateral unloading conveyor 5-2 includes multiple rollers
-9with a power source, and the multiple rollers are arranged side by side in the length direction of the train, and each of the rollers is wrapped thereon with a rubber ring, which increases the diameter of the roller in one aspect, and in another aspect, allows the roller to have a greater friction and elasticity, so as to facilitate cargo conveying.
[0065] A gap is provided between two rollers at suitable positions, and the unloading elevator 5-3 is arranged in the gap.
[0066] In order to prevent the cargo or container 11 from falling off to the track 7 and causing an accident when it is conveyed in the length direction of the train, the lateral loading conveyor 4-1 and the widthwise unloading conveyor 5-1 are each provided with a liftable barrier 9.
[0067] The liftable barriers 9 are arranged between the train and the lateral loading conveyor 4-1 and between the train and the widthwise unloading conveyor 5-1, respectively, and grooves are provided in the foundations at the left and right sides of the train for the liftable barriers 9 to be lowered and concealed to prevent them from obstructing the normal handling of the cargo or container 11.
[0068] When the train is not pulled in or the cargo is being conveyed on the conveyor, the liftable barrier 9 is in a lifted state, and when it is ready to push the cargo or container 11 into the train, the liftable barrier 9 is in a lowered state.
[0069] In order to assist in pushing the cargo or container 11 into and out of the train, the lateral loading conveyor 4-1 and the widthwise unloading conveyor 5-1 are each provided with an auxiliary roller 10.
[0070] The auxiliary rollers 10 are arranged between the train and the lateral loading conveyor 4-1 and between the train and the widthwise unloading conveyor 5-1, respectively. The auxiliary rollers 10 convey in the width direction of the train, and have a conveyance assistance effect when the cargo or container 11 is pushed in and out of the train.
[0071] The handling apparatus 6 is configured to push the cargo in and out of the train. In this embodiment, the handling apparatus 6 includes a robot 6-1 and a slide rail 6-5, and is arranged in the platform where the loading passage 4 is located.
[0072] The slide rail 6-5 is arranged at an outer side of the foundation of the loading passage 4 for the robot 6-1 to slide so as to allow the working region of the robot 6-1 to cover

6-3 includes two arms, which further enhances its flexibility.
[0074] A fork 6-4 is provided at a front end of the mechanical arm 6-3, and is configured to be fitted with the container 11, so as to allow the mechanical arm 6-3 to have sufficient stability when pushing the container 11.
[0075] Radio frequency identification (RFID) technology is adopted in the robot 6-1. When the container 11 enters the working region of the robot 6-1, the robot 6-1 identifies the container 11 by the RFID technology to determine whether the container 11 is the cargo of the carriage where the container 11 is located. If the determination result is yes, the specific position where the container 11 should be placed in the cargo hold of the carriage is determined, and the position of the container 11 after the container 11 is fixed by the fork 6-4 is shifted. Or the robot 6-1 cooperates with the loading passage 4, and pushes the container 11 into the train cargo hold after the container 11 is conveyed by the loading passage 4 to a corresponding position.
[0076] By providing the robot 6-1, automatic freight transport system is realized, and the position where the cargo is required to be placed can be identified automatically without manual operation.
[0077] The container 11 is conveyed by the freight passage from the warehouse 13 to one side of the train and then pushed into the train cargo hold in the width direction of the train to achieve cargo loading. The container 11 is pushed out of the train in the width direction of the train to the freight passage at the other side of the train to achieve cargo unloading, or while the container 11 is pushed in in the width direction of the train, the container 11 previously in the cargo hold is expelled out of the cargo hold to the freight passage at the other side of the train by the container 11 entering the train cargo hold to achieve cargo unloading.
[0078] In this embodiment, the freight transport system further includes a main control terminal and an identification probe, and the identification probe includes a first identification probe and multiple second identification probes.
- ii [0079] The first identification probe and the multiple second identification probes are respectively in circuit connection with the main control terminal, and a control terminal of the power source of the freight passage is in circuit connection with the main control terminal, and a control terminal of the handling apparatus 6 is in circuit connection with the main control terminal.
[0080] The freight passage is laid to the edge of the rail freight platform and is adjacent to the train. The freight platform is provided with the warehouse 13, and the container 11 to be transported is stored in the warehouse 13. An identification code is attached to the container 11. In this embodiment, the identification code is a two-dimensional code.
[0081] The first identification probe is provided at the exit of the warehouse 13, and the first identification probe identifies the identification code on the container 11 based on the RFID technology, and transmits the identified information of the container 11 to the main control terminal.
[0082] The container 11 is loaded onto the freight passage and transported to the side of the train. At one side of the freight passage at the train section, the handling apparatus 6 is provided, and the handling apparatus 6 is configured to load the container 11 into the train. The handling apparatus 6 is provided with the second identification probe, and the second identification probe identifies the identification code of the container 11 located on the freight passage based on the RFID technology, and transmits the identified information to the main control terminal.
[0083] A freight list is stored in the main control terminal, and the contents of the freight list include information of each container 11 and information such as the carriages where the containers are to be loaded.
[0084] The main control terminal determines the information of the container 11 according to the information transmitted by the first identification probe, transmits the determined information to the control terminal of the power source of the freight passage to control the operation and stop of the freight passage to convey the container 11 to the carriage specified in the freight list. The second identification probe of the handling apparatus 6 at this carriage identifies the information of the container 11, and transmits the identified information to the main control terminal. After confirming the information, the main control terminal controls the handling apparatus 6 to load the container 11.
- 12 [0085] This automatic identification handling system for rail freight transport automatically loads and unloads each container 11 based on the RFID technology, which advantageously improves the degree of automation of the freight transport system and improves the freight transport efficiency.
