Hereinafter, with reference to example explanation container 32A is put down step in the cabinet 1.For container is placed in the cabinet 1, opens door 9 so that container 32A 45 puts down by entering the mouth, and after in storage tank 13A, arranging a plurality of container 32A door 9 is shut.Then, pressing key lock switch 24 locks door 9 with request controller 27.When pressing key lock switch 24,27 pairs of electric lock controllers of controller, 29 output locking signals (lock command).The electric lock controller 29 that locking signal was input to provides the electric current of scheduled volume for electric lock 17 by electric-conductor.The lockout mechanism of current activation electric lock 17 comes opposite house 9 to lock.When being rolled into, container 32A reaches outlet 46 the time downwards on passage 47, container 32A is positioned at the top (top of the scanner unit of bar code reader 49) that is located near the through hole 50 of outlet 46, makes bar code reader 49 read to be positioned at the bar code 36 of the container 32A at outlet 46 places thus.
The following describes from cabinet 1 and take out the example of the step of container 32A.Take out switch 25 with request controller 27 taking-up container 32A in order to take out container 32A from cabinet 1, to press.When pressing taking-up switch 25, controller 27 output is used to the read output signal (sense command) that makes bar code reader 49 read bar code 36, to activate scanner unit thus, make bar code reader 49 read to be positioned at the bar code 36 of container 32A at outlet 46 places.Useful life information from bar code reader 49 is imported in the controller 27, thereby is stored in the memory device of controller 27.The useful life information of holding article among date shown in the control part of controller 27 the time meter that it is built-in and the container 32A compares, with the useful life of the judging article still useful life of article mistake in useful life.When useful life (was held article in useful life among the container 32A) after the date shown in the time meter, control part was to electric lock controller 29 output unlocking signals.The electric lock controller 29 that unlocking signal was input to blocks the electric current of giving electric lock 17 by electric-conductor.After electric current was blocked, the lockout mechanism of electric lock 17 was activated and unblanks with opposite house 9.After door 9 is unblanked, open door 9 and be positioned at the container 32A that exports 46 places with taking-up, close door 9, press key lock switch 24.When pressing key lock switch 24, as being placed in the cabinet 1 as container 32A, 27 pairs of electric lock controllers of controller 29 are exported locking signals so that electric lock 17 opposite houses 9 are locked.
When the date of representing in the article useful life information is before the date shown in the time meter (when holding article among the container 32A and crossed useful life), the control part of controller 27 is to rattler 10 output audible signals, to luminaire 11 output luminous signals, also the transmission signal that useful life have been crossed is represented in 31 outputs to transmitter.When output audible signal and luminous signal, the switch circuit in rattler 10 and the luminaire 11 is switched on, to make rattler 10 sounding respectively and to make luminaire 11 luminous.The useful life expiration information is sent out device 31 and is modulated into the radio wave signal that sends to the external world by antenna 12, thereby is received by outside receptor 30.When the useful life of container article that 32A holds that is arranged in outlet 46 places out-of-date, then electric lock 17 not opposite house 9 unblank, therefore door 9 can't be opened, making thus can not be from cabinet 1 taking-up container 32A.Here, if the code digit that the handler of article is scheduled to digitizing tablet 26 inputs, then code digit is input to the controller 27 from digital module 28, controller 27 outputs to electric lock controller 29 with unlocking signal, electric lock controller 29 blocks the electric current that leads to electric lock 17, and electric lock 17 opposite house 9 is thus unblanked.The handler also can untie electric lock 17 by key.After using digitizing tablet 26 or by key electric lock 17 being unblanked, the handler opens door 9, takes out the container 32A that holds dated items from cabinet 1, closes to the doorstep 9 once more, presses key lock switch 24.After the container 32A of dated items was held in cabinet 1 taking-up, the handler was closed and is called 9, presses key lock switch 24 the handler.Then, 27 pairs of electric lock controllers of controller, 29 output locking signals are so that electric lock 17 opposite houses 9 are locked.
In cabinet 1, when the useful life that the control part of controller 27 is judged the container article that 32A holds that are arranged in outlet 46 places based on the article useful life information of being read by bar code reader 49 out-of-date, the control part of controller 27 is not exported unlocking signal, therefore makes door 9 remain on lock-out state.Thus, the useful life that is contained in the article in the cabinet 1 can obtain the failure-free management, thereby makes that the container 32A that holds dated items can not taken out from cabinet 1.Therefore, can avoid using useful life article excessively.
In cabinet 1, the useful life of judging the article that are contained in the container 32A that is arranged in outlet 46 places when the control part of controller 27 is out-of-date, control part output audible signal and luminous signal, rattler 10 responds the audible signal sounding thus, and luminaire 11 also to respond luminous signal luminous.Thus, might warn the external world of cabinet 1: there is the container 32A that holds dated items in 46 places in outlet.Therefore, can avoid using useful life article excessively in the failure-free mode.
In cabinet 1, judge when the control part of controller 27 and to be contained in the article of container 32A that are arranged in outlet 46 places when expired, 31 outputs send signal to control part to transmitter, transmitter 31 responds the information of article having been crossed useful life from the transmission signal of control part output thus and sends to outside receptor 30, thereby can notify the handler at outlet 46 places the container 32A that holds dated items to be arranged.Therefore, the handler can avoid taking out the article of crossing useful life from cabinet 1.

Rattler 10, luminaire 11, antenna 12, electric lock 17, controller 27, digital module 28, electric lock controller 29, transmitter 31, bar code reader 49A, 49B are identical to those shown in Fig. 1.Rattler 10, luminaire 11 and antenna 12 are placed on the roof 4 of storage tank memory cell 2.Key lock switch 24, taking-up switch 25 and digitizing tablet 26 are installed to the antetheca 23 (referring to Fig. 1) of equipment box unit 3.Controller 27, digital module 28, electric lock controller 29 and transmitter 31 are stored in box unit 3.The control part of controller 27 will be stored in the date shown in useful life information in the memory device and the time meter relatively, when date of useful life information representation after the date shown in the time meter, to electric lock controller 29 output unlocking signals (unlock command).On the contrary, if the date of useful life information representation is before the date shown in the time meter, then the control part of controller 27 is not exported unlocking signal but rattler 10 is exported audible signals (sounding order), to luminaire 11 output luminous signals (luminous order), also 31 outputs send signal (sending order) to transmitter.Simultaneously, in storage tank 13B, retainer 51 and 52 stretches into and withdraws from the action of passage 47 and controlled as follows by controller 27: when one in the first and second electromagnetism retainers 51 and 52 outside passage 47 time, another in the retainer 51 and 52 can not withdraw from from passage 47.In this mode, stretch into and withdraw from the action of passage 47 by controller 27 control retainers 51 and 52.
Respectively be illustrated in the lateral plan of the passage 47 that the foot of the storage tank 13B of Fig. 6 extends among Fig. 9 and Figure 10.Fig. 9 is illustrated in that container 32B is arranged in before first space 57, the first and second electromagnetism retainers, 51,52 states at passage 47.Figure 10 illustrates container 32B respectively and is arranged in first space 57, the first electromagnetism retainer 51 at passage 47 and the state of the second electromagnetism retainer 52 outside passage 47.In Fig. 9, retainer 52 is shown outside passage 47 with imaginary line.In Figure 10, retainer 52 is shown in passage 47 with imaginary line.When container 32B deposited in the cabinet 1, the action of the first and second electromagnetism retainers 51,52 will describe with reference to figure 9 and Figure 10 hereinafter.
According to following steps container 32B is deposited down in the cabinet 1: open door 9 container 32B 45 is lowered in the storage tank 13B by entering the mouth, close door 9 after being arranged on the passage 47 that between the inlet 45 and second electromagnetism retainer 52, extends at a plurality of container 32B, press key lock switch 24 and lock with request controller 27 opposite houses 9.When key lock switch 24 is pressed, 27 pairs of electric lock controllers of controller, 29 output locking signals (lock command).The electric lock controller 29 that locking signal was input to provides the electric current of scheduled volume for electric lock 17 by electric-conductor.The lockout mechanism of current activation electric lock 17 comes opposite house 9 to lock.As shown in Figure 9, in storage tank 13B, the second electromagnetism retainer 52 interrupts the rolling movement of container 32B.After opposite house 9 was locked, controller 27 made the second electromagnetism retainer 52 withdraw from from passage 47.When retainer 52 from state shown in Fig. 9 towards returning by the vertical downward direction shown in the arrow L1 and when withdrawing from passage 47 thus, container 32B rolls downwards towards the first electromagnetism retainer 51 in (in first space 57) on the passage 47, just stops its rolling movement up to contact retainer 51.Then, controller 27 makes the second electromagnetism retainer 52 stretch into passage 47 once more.When retainer 52 along shown in the arrow L2 vertically upward to outstanding and when stretching in the passage 47 thus, one among the container 32B in first space 57 that is formed on as shown in figure 10 between retainer 51 and 52.When container 32B was arranged in first space 57, bar code reader 49A and 49B can read the bar code 36 of the container 32B that is arranged in first space.Simultaneously, after retainer 52 was return 1 to 5 second from passage 47, controller 27 extend in the passage 47 retainer 52 once more.In addition, controller 27 detects container 32B by bar code reader 49A and 49B and is arranged in first space 57, when controller is judged container 32B and is arranged in first space 57, makes to be in passage 47 outer retainers 52 and to extend into once more in the passage 47.
Figure 11 and Figure 12 respectively are the lateral plan at the passage 47 of the foot extension of the storage tank 13B of Fig. 6.Figure 12 illustrates that container 32B rolls downwards and the state that arrives outlet 46 in second space 58, wherein the first electromagnetism retainer 51 outside passage 47 and the second electromagnetism retainer 52 in passage 47.In Figure 11, retainer 51 is shown at the container 32B that rolls outside the passage 47 and in second space 58 respectively with imaginary line.In Figure 12, the retainer 51 that stretches into passage 47 is shown with imaginary line.Hereinafter with reference to Figure 11 and 12 the explanations first and second electromagnetism retainers 51 and 52 action when from cabinet 1 taking-up container 32B.
Take out switch 25 with request controller 27 taking-up container 32B in order to take out container 32A from cabinet 1, to press.When pressing taking-up switch 25, the read output signal (sense command) of 27 couples of bar code reader 49A of controller and 49B output bars font code 36, activate scanner unit thus, make bar code reader 49A and 49B read to be arranged in the bar code 36 of the container 32B in first space 57.Useful life information from bar code reader 49A and 49B is imported in the controller 27, and is stored in the memory device of controller 27.The useful life information of holding article among date shown in the control part of controller 27 the time meter that it is built-in and the container 32B compares, and is mistake in useful life or with the useful life of judging article.When useful life is after the date shown in the time meter (when holding article among the container 32B in useful life the time), control part is exported unlocking signals to electric lock controller 29, and the first electromagnetism retainer 51 is return from passage 47.When retainer 51 from state shown in Figure 11 towards return by the vertical downward direction shown in the arrow L3, thus when passage 47 is return, the container 32B (in second space 58) on passage 47 that is arranged in first space 57 rolls downwards to arrive outlet 46, and container 32B contacts retainer 48 at last and just stops its rolling movement.The electric lock controller 29 that unlocking signal was input to blocks the electric current that leads to electric lock 17 by electric-conductor.When electric current was blocked, the lockout mechanism of electric lock 17 was activated, and opposite house 9 is unblanked thus.After door 9 was unblanked, door 9 was opened, and the container 32B that is positioned at outlet 46 places is removed by door 9, and door 9 is closed once more then.
When closing to the doorstep 9 and when pressing key lock switch 24 after being removed by exporting 46 at container 32B, 27 couples of bar code reader 49A of controller, 49B output bars font code 36 stop read signal, also to electric lock controller 29 output locking signals so that the first electromagnetism retainer 51 enters into passage 47.Retainer 51 from state shown in Figure 12 towards by shown in the arrow L4 vertically upward to outstanding and stretch into the passage 47.The electric lock controller 29 that locking signal was input to supplies with the electric current of scheduled volume for electric lock 17 by electric-conductor.The lockout mechanism of current activation electric lock 17 comes opposite house 9 to lock.Make after the first electromagnetism retainer 51 extend into passage 47, controller 27 is return the second electromagnetism retainer 52 from passage 47.When retainer 52 when passage 47 is return, the to be got next container 32B of located just after container 32B rolls downwards towards the first electromagnetism retainer 51 in (in first space 57) on the passage 47, with final contact retainer 51 and stop its rolling movement.Then, controller 27 extend in the passage 47 the second electromagnetism retainer 52 once more.When retainer 52 stretched into passage 47, one among the container 32B was arranged in first space 57.
If the date of useful life information representation is (if the article that are contained among the container 32B have been crossed useful life) before the date shown in the time meter, then the control part of controller 27 is not to electric lock controller 29 output unlocking signals, but to rattler 10 output audible signals, to luminaire 11 output luminous signals, the transmission signal output that also will comprise the useful life expiration information is to transmitter 31.In addition, the control part of controller 27 outputs to bar code reader 49A and 49B with the read signal that stops relevant with bar code 36, and the first electromagnetism retainer 51 is withdrawed from from passage 47.When retainer 51 withdrawed from from passage 47, the container 32B (in second space 58) on passage 47 that is arranged in first space 57 rolled downwards towards outlet 46, arrives outlet 46 thus.
When controller 27 output audible signals and luminous signal, the switch circuit of rattler 10 and luminaire 11 is switched on, therefore, rattler 10 sounding, luminaire 11 is luminous.Useful life information is modulated into radio wave signal at transmitter 31 places, and this signal is outwards launched by antenna 12, is received by outside receptor 30 subsequently.If the useful life that is arranged in the article that the container 32B in first space 57 held is mistake, electric lock 17 not opposite house 9 is unblanked, and therefore door 9 can not be opened, and this means and can not take out container 32B from cabinet 1.In this case, the handler of article comes electric lock 17 is unblanked with the default code digit of digitizing tablet 26 inputs, perhaps by using key to open the locking that door 9 is removed electric lock 17, take out from cabinet 1 with the container 32B that will accommodate dated items, the handler will close door 9 once more subsequently, press key lock switch 24.
Take out from cabinet 1 and hold after the container 32B of dated items, the handler is closed and is called 9, presses key lock switch 24.Therefore, 27 pairs of electric lock controllers of controller 29 are exported locking signals and the first electromagnetism retainer 51 are stretched in the passage 47.The electric lock controller 29 that locking signal was input to provides the electric current of scheduled volume for electric lock 17 by electric-conductor.The lockout mechanism of electric lock 27 is locked with opposite house 9 by this current activation.Make after the first electromagnetism retainer 51 stretches in the passage 47, controller 27 is return the second electromagnetism retainer 52 from passage 47.After retainer 52 is return from passage 47, the to be got next container 32B of located just after container 32B rolls downwards towards the first electromagnetism retainer 51 in (in first space 57) on the passage 47, also stops its rolling movement thus with final contact retainer 51.Then, controller 27 extend in the passage 47 the second electromagnetism retainer 52 once more.When retainer 52 stretched into passage 47, one among the container 32B was arranged in first space 57.
In this cabinet 1, if the useful life that controller 27 is judged the container article that 32B holds that are arranged in first space 57 based on the article useful life information of reading by bar code reader 49A, 49B is mistake, then controller 27 is not exported unlocking signal, thereby keeps the lock-out state of door 9 constant.Controller 27 is output audible signal and luminous signal further, therefore, rattler 10 response audible signal sounding, luminaire 11 response luminous signals are luminous.Thus, can manage the useful life that leaves the article in the cabinet 1 in, therefore, accommodate the container 32B of dated items with not taking out, thereby can avoid dated items to be used from cabinet 1 with reliable fashion.
In cabinet 1, when controller 27 is judged article that the container 32B that is arranged in first space 57 held and has been crossed useful life, controller 27 outputs send signal, therefore transmitter 31 sends to outside receptor 30 according to the information that the transmission signal that comes self-controller expires useful life, thereby have the situation of the container 32B of the dated items of accommodating can be notified to the handler in the cabinet 1, so the handler can prevent to take out dated items from cabinet 1.
In cabinet 1, when controller 27 is judged article that the container 32B that is arranged in first space 57 held in useful life, 27 pairs of electric locks of controller, 17 output unlock commands, first retainer 51 is withdrawed from from passage 47 allowing container 32B to roll one by one towards outlet 46 in second space 58 downwards, thereby can check the useful life of article one by one by container 32B.In cabinet 1, the container 32B that is arranged among the storage tank 13B is arranged in first space 57 in order one by one, and after judging useful life, container 32B is taken out from cabinet 1 in order one by one, thereby can disposablely not take out a plurality of container 32B from cabinet 1.Therefore, can avoid taking out the container 32B that accommodates dated items with reliable fashion.
Figure 13 is the block diagram as the storage tank 13C of other example.Figure 14 is the block diagram according to stored container 32C among the storage tank 13C of Figure 13.In Figure 13, represent with arrow L that vertically laterally represent with arrow M, fore-and-aft direction represents that with arrow N the sense of motion of the container 32C in the storage tank 13C is represented with arrow Z.Simultaneously, except storage tank 13C, the structure of cabinet 1 is same as shown in Figure 1, thereby can omit the explanation for the structure of cabinet with reference to figure 1.
Storage tank 13C comprises: roof 38, diapire 39, a plurality of dull and stereotyped 44 of sidewall 40 and 41, antetheca 42, rear wall 43 and arrangement longitudinally.As storage tank 13A, storage tank 13C is placed in the storage tank memory cell 2 in three storage tank 13C modes placed side by side.Storage tank 13C comprises: upper inlet 45, and it is positioned at the top of unit 2, and container 32C puts down as described below in order one by one by upper inlet 45; Under export 46, it is positioned at the bottom of unit 2, by under export 46 and take out container 32C in order one by one; And passage 47, it extends at inlet 45 with between exporting 46.Dull and stereotyped 44 comprise: the first dull and stereotyped 44A, and it tilts to rear wall 43 from antetheca 42; The second dull and stereotyped 44B, it tilts from rear wall 43 forward walls 42.Alternately place the first dull and stereotyped 44A and the second dull and stereotyped 44B to the bottom from the top of storage tank 13C.Passage 47 is definite by wall 38,39,40,41,42,43 and flat board 44, and from entering the mouth 45 to outlet 46 alternately inclination/declines.The passage 47 that extends at the foot of storage tank 13C is provided with first electromagnetism retainer 51 (first retainer) and the second electromagnetism retainer of being made by screw actuator 52 (second retainer).These retainers 51 and 52 identical with shown in Fig. 6.
The first electromagnetism retainer 51 is placed in primary importance 53 places of passage 47, and this primary importance 53 is near outlet 46 and along from exporting 46 towards 45 the fore-and-aft direction preset distance in the passage upstream that enters the mouth.Retainer 51 is disposed on the dull and stereotyped 44B of the foot that is positioned at storage tank 13C, can extend in the passage 47 or from passage 47 and returns by being formed on slit 54 among the dull and stereotyped 44B.When retainer 51 stretched in the passage 47, the rolling movement of container 32C was interrupted.The second electromagnetism retainer 52 is placed on the second place 55 of passage 47, and this second place 55 is along the preset distance of the fore-and-aft direction from the first electromagnetism retainer 51 to inlet 45 in the passage upstream.Retainer 52 is disposed on the dull and stereotyped 44B of the foot that is positioned at storage tank 13C, can extend in the passage 47 or from passage 47 and returns by being formed on slit 56 among the dull and stereotyped 44B.When retainer 52 stretched into passage 47, the rolling movement of container 32C was interrupted.
Between the first electromagnetism retainer 51 and the second electromagnetism retainer 52, be useful on first space 57 of catching a container 32C.At the first electromagnetism retainer 51 with between exporting 46 second space 58 is arranged, container 32C rolls downwards in second space 58.In retainer 51 and the length that exports second space 58 between 46 no better than or greater than the girth of the side face 35 of container 32C, thereby container 32C rolls a week in space 58 at least.Second space 58 is provided with the bar code reader 49 of the bar code 36 that is used to read container 32C.Bar code reader 49 is seated in the back side of dull and stereotyped 44B of the foot of storage tank 13C.Scanner unit (not shown here) is fixed on the peripheral part of the through hole 50 that is formed among the dull and stereotyped 44B.Scanner unit faces second space 58 by through hole 50.Through hole 50 is formed in second space 58 and extends to the almost whole length in second space 58.
The hardware of cabinet 1 is with shown in Figure 8 identical, thereby with reference to figure 8, omits this explanation here.Electric lock 17 is electrically connected to electric lock controller 29 by electric-conductor (not shown) here.For electric lock 17, utilize identical as shown in Figure 1 lock of locking by instantaneous current.Rattler 10, luminaire 11, key lock switch 24, taking-up switch 25, digital module 28, transmitter 31, bar code reader 49 and the first and second electromagnetism retainers 51,52 are electrically connected to controller 27 by interface (not shown) here.Rattler 10, luminaire 11, key lock switch 24, taking-up switch 25, controller 27, electric lock controller 29, digital module 28, transmitter 31, bar code reader 49, the first and second electromagnetism retainers 51,52 are powered by distribution wire (not shown here).
Rattler 10, luminaire 11, antenna 12, electric lock 17, controller 27, digital module 28, electric lock controller 29, transmitter 31 and bar code reader 49 are identical to those shown in Fig. 1.Rattler 10, luminaire 11 and antenna 12 are disposed on the roof 4 of storage tank memory cell 2.Key lock switch 24, taking-up switch 25 and digitizing tablet 26 are installed to the antetheca 23 (referring to Fig. 1) of equipment box unit 3.Controller 27, digital module 28, electric lock controller 29 and transmitter 31 are stored in box unit 3.The control part of controller 27 will be stored in the date shown in useful life information in the memory device and the time meter relatively, if the date of useful life information representation is after the date shown in the time meter, then to electric lock controller 29 output unlocking signals (unlock command).On the contrary, if the date of useful life information representation is before the date shown in the time meter, then the control part of controller 27 is not exported unlocking signal, but to rattler 10 output audible signals (sounding order), to luminaire 11 output luminous signals (luminous order), also 31 outputs send signal (sending order) to transmitter.Simultaneously, in storage tank 13C, controller 27 is controlled the action that the first and second electromagnetism retainers 51 and 52 stretched into or withdrawed from passage 47 as follows: when one in the first and second electromagnetism retainers 51 and 52 outside passage 47 time, another in the retainer just can not withdraw from from passage 47.
Figure 15 and Figure 16 are respectively the lateral plan at the passage 47 of the foot extension of storage tank 13C.Figure 15 is illustrated in container 32C will be arranged in first space 57, the therefore first and second electromagnetism retainers, 51,52 states at passage 47.Figure 16 illustrates container 32C and is arranged in first space 57, the first electromagnetism retainer 51 at passage 47 and the state of the second electromagnetism retainer 52 outside passage 47.In Figure 15, the state of retainer 52 outside passage 47 is shown with imaginary line.In Figure 16, the state of retainer 52 in passage 47 is shown with imaginary line.Hereinafter, when container 32C is stored in the cabinet, the action of the first and second electromagnetism retainers 51,52 is described with reference to Figure 15 and Figure 16.
For storage container 32C in cabinet 1, open door 9, container 32C is put down by the inlet 45 of storage tank 13C, and after arranging on the passage 47 that container 32C extends between the inlet 45 and second electromagnetism retainer 52, close door 9, come request controller 27 that door 9 is locked by pressing key lock switch 24 then.When pressing key lock switch 24,27 pairs of electric lock controllers of controller, 29 output locking signals (lock command).The electric lock controller 29 that locking signal was input to provides the electric current of scheduled volume for electric lock 17 by electric-conductor.The lockout mechanism of current activation electric lock 17 comes opposite house 9 to lock.As shown in Figure 15, in storage tank 13C, interrupt the rolling movement of container 32C by the second electromagnetism retainer 52.After opposite house 9 was locked, controller 27 made the second electromagnetism retainer 52 withdraw from from passage 47.When retainer 52 from state shown in Figure 15 towards by the vertical downward direction shown in the arrow L1 return, when withdrawing from passage 47 thus, container 32C rolls downwards towards the first electromagnetism retainer 51 in (in first space 57) on the passage 47, and the result contacts retainer 51 to stop its rolling movement.Then, controller 27 extend in the passage 47 the second electromagnetism retainer 52 once more.When retainer 52 along shown in the arrow L2 vertically upward to outstanding and when stretching in the passage 47, as shown in figure 16, one among the container 32C in first space 57 that is formed between retainer 51 and 52.Simultaneously, after retainer 52 was return 1 to 5 second from passage 47, controller 27 made retainer 52 enter into passage 47 once more.
Figure 17 and Figure 18 are the lateral plans of the passage 47 that extends of the foot of storage tank 13C.Figure 18 illustrates that container 32C rolls downwards and the state that arrives outlet 46 in second space 58, wherein the first electromagnetism retainer 51 outside passage 47 and the second electromagnetism retainer 52 in passage 47.In Figure 17, be illustrated in retainer 51 outside the passage 47 with imaginary line, also be illustrated in the container 32C that rolls in second space 58 downwards with imaginary line.In Figure 18, be illustrated in retainer 51 in the passage 47 with imaginary line.Hereinafter with reference to Figure 17 and 18 the explanations first and second electromagnetism retainers 51 and 52 action when from cabinet 1 taking-up container 32C.
Take out switch 25 with request controller 27 taking-up container 32C in order to take out container 32C from cabinet 1, to press.When pressing taking-up switch 25, the read output signal (sense command) of 27 pairs of bar code reader 49 output bars font codes 36 of controller, and the first electromagnetism retainer 51 is return from passage 47.When retainer 51 from state shown in Figure 17 along return by the vertical downward direction shown in the arrow L3, thus when passage 47 withdraws from, the container 32C (in second space 58) on passage 47 that is arranged in first space 57 rolls downwards with final arrival outlet 46 towards outlet 46, causes contacting retainer 48 to stop its rolling movement.When container 32C rolled downwards in second space 58, the scanner unit of bar code reader 49 was activated with the bar code 36 of reading container 32C.Useful life information from bar code reader 49 is imported in the controller 27 with in the memory device that is stored in controller 27.The useful life information of holding article among date shown in the control part of controller 27 the time meter that it is built-in and the container 32C compares, and is mistake in useful life or with the useful life of judging article.If useful life is (if holding article in useful life among the container 32C) after the date shown in the time meter, then control part is to the read signal that stops of bar code reader 49 output bars font codes 36, also to electric lock controller 29 output unlocking signals.The electric lock controller 29 that unlocking signal was input to blocks the electric current that leads to electric lock 17 by electric-conductor.When electric current was blocked, the lockout mechanism of electric lock 17 was activated, and opposite house 9 is unblanked.After door 9 is unblanked, can open door 9, be positioned at the container 32C at outlet 46 places with taking-up, and close door 9 once more.
After exporting 46 taking-up container 32C, door 9 is shut, and pressed key lock switch 24.Then, 27 pairs of electric lock controllers of controller, 29 output locking signals also make the first electromagnetism retainer 51 enter into passage 47.The electric lock controller 29 that signal was input to provides the electric current of scheduled volume for electric lock 17 by electric-conductor.The lockout mechanism of current activation electric lock 17 comes opposite house 9 to lock.Controller 27 makes the first electromagnetism retainer 51 enter into passage 47, and the second electromagnetism retainer 52 is withdrawed from from passage 47.When retainer 52 when passage 47 is return, the next container 32C that will from cabinet be taken out of located just after container 32C rolls downwards towards the first electromagnetism retainer 51 in (in first space 57) on the passage 47, with final contact retainer 51 and stop its rolling movement.Then, controller 27 extend in the passage 47 the second electromagnetism retainer 52 once more.When retainer 52 stretched into passage 47, one among the container 32C was arranged in first space 57.
If the date of useful life information representation is (if the article that are contained among the container 32C have been crossed useful life) before the date shown in the time meter, then the control part of controller 27 is not to electric lock controller 29 output unlocking signals, but to rattler 10 output audible signals, to luminaire 11 output luminous signals, the transmission signal output that also will comprise the useful life expiration information is to transmitter 31.In addition, the control part of controller 27 outputs to bar code reader 49 with the read signal that stops of bar code 36.When slave controller 27 output audible signals and luminous signal, the switch circuit of rattler 10 and luminaire 11 is switched on, therefore, rattler 10 sounding, luminaire 11 is luminous.The expiration information of useful life is modulated into radio wave signal by transmitter 31, and this signal is outwards launched by antenna 12, to be received by outside receptor 30.The useful life of the article that held in the container 32C that rolls downwards in second space 58 is out-of-date, and electric lock 17 not opposite house 9 is unblanked.Therefore, can not open door 9, therefore can not from cabinet 1, take out container 32C.In this case, the handler of article comes electric lock 17 is unblanked with the default code digit of digitizing tablet 26 inputs, perhaps by using key to open the locking that door 9 is removed electric lock 17, takes out from cabinet 1 with the container 32C that will accommodate dated items.Then, the handler closes door 9 once more, presses key lock switch 24.
The handler takes out the container 32C that holds dated items from cabinet 1 after, close to the doorstep 9 as the handler, when pressing key lock switch 24 subsequently, 27 pairs of electric lock controllers of controller, 29 output locking signals also make the first electromagnetism retainer 51 stretch in the passage 47.The electric lock controller 29 that signal was input to provides the electric current of scheduled volume for electric lock 17 by electric-conductor.The lockout mechanism of electric lock 17 is locked with opposite house 9 by this current activation.Make after the first electromagnetism retainer 51 stretches in the passage 47 at controller 27, this controller makes the second electromagnetism retainer 52 return from passage 47 subsequently.After retainer 52 is return from passage 47, the to be got next container 32C of located just after container 32C rolls downwards towards the first electromagnetism retainer 51 in (in first space 57) on the passage 47, also stops its rolling movement thus up to contact retainer 51.Then, controller 27 makes the second electromagnetism retainer 52 stretch into passage 47 once more.When retainer 52 stretched into passage 47, one among the container 32C was arranged in first space 57.
In this cabinet 1, the useful life of the container article that 32C holds of rolling is out-of-date downwards in second space 58 when controller 27 is judged based on the article useful life information of reading by bar code reader 49, controller 27 is not exported unlocking signal, therefore keeps the lock-out state of door 9 constant.In addition, controller 27 output audible signal and luminous signals, therefore, and rattler 10 response audible signal sounding, luminaire 11 response luminous signals are luminous.Therefore, can manage the useful life that leaves the article in the cabinet 1 in, therefore, not accommodate the container 32C of dated items owing to can not take out, thereby can avoid dated items to be used from cabinet 1 with reliable fashion.
In cabinet 1, when controller 27 is judged in second space 58 article that the container 32C that rolls held downwards and has been crossed useful life, controller 27 outputs send signal, and transmitter 31 sends to outside receptor 30 according to the information that the transmission signal that comes self-controller expires useful life.Therefore, can notify the handler that the container 32C of the dated items of accommodating is arranged in cabinet 1.Therefore, the handler can prevent that the people from taking out dated items from cabinet 1.
In cabinet 1, bar code reader 49 is the bar code 36 of read-out mark on container 32C when container 32C rolls downwards in second space 58, make bar code reader 49 can read bar code 36 exactly, therefore can be with the useful life of failure-free mode Manage Containers article that 32C is held.In cabinet 1, controller 27 withdraws from the first electromagnetism retainer 51 from passage 47, and therefore, the container 32C that is arranged in first space 57 rolls downwards towards outlet 46 one by one in second space 58.When controller 27 is judged in second space 58 article that the container 32C that rolls held downwards in useful life the time, therefore 27 pairs of electric locks of controller, 17 output unlocking signals, can be the container 32C useful life of management article one by one.In cabinet 1, the container 32C that is arranged among the storage tank 13C moves to second space 58 from first space 57 in order one by one, and the container 32C that has been judged useful life is taken out from cabinet 1 in order one by one.Therefore, can disposablely not take out a plurality of container 32C, therefore, can avoid taking out the container 32C that accommodates dated items with reliable fashion from cabinet 1.
In cabinet 1, can omit the antenna 12 that is arranged on the roof 4, can also omit rattler 10, luminaire 11 and transmitter 31.In the storage tank 13B of Fig. 6, except container 32B, can utilize container 32A shown in Figure 2.In the storage tank 13C of Figure 13, except container 32C, can utilize the container 32B shown in the container 32A shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 7.Simultaneously, cabinet 1 can also be used as temperature controlled container, cold insulation container, protect fill container or cleaning box.
