Description
The application is be on March 11st, 2003, denomination of invention the applying date for " be used for preferably the system of the cargo hold loading and unloading loose merchandize of aircraft and intermediate transport apparatus or the translator unit that is used for this system ", application number be dividing an application of 03810646.9 Chinese invention patent application.
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of system that is used at the cargo hold loading and unloading loose merchandize of aircraft; The invention still further relates to a kind of intermediate transport apparatus and a kind of translator unit that is used for this system that is used for this system.
Background technology
When the loading and unloading loose merchandize is single good in cargo hold; this loose merchandize must at first be delivered to hatch opening and pass through this hatch opening around cargo hold usually; in cargo hold, must determine clearance envelope; and loose merchandize must be stacked or pile up or be placed in this clearance envelope; the loading and unloading loose merchandize is difficult especially in aircraft hold; because loose merchandize must at first be transported near the hatch opening (only limiting to consider that aircraft on every side) of fuselage interior from the hardstand; receive at this place; avoid damaging fuselage or damage simultaneously and transport its structure; send into the clearance envelope in the aircraft hold then, and preferably pile up as far as possible compactly or place.Wherein, narrow space condition has increased complexity usually, and for example in Boeing-737, depth of hold is 8m or bigger, and height of hold is no more than about 1.15m, and the staff who is responsible for the loading and unloading aircraft can only be to bend over, to throw oneself on one's knees or crouch position work.Distance from hatch opening to the cargo hold rear end must be utilized knee to slide to pass through.In order to place or to pile up loose merchandize, the staff must frequently pick up goods, cross shoulder turns round, and lifts goods, and along forwards to stack goods.In this processing, be easy to injure muscle, tendon or ligament, also can injure the muscle skeleton supporting system.And at present more complicated is, because economic cause, at least 5 tons loose merchandize must be less than loading or unloading in time of 10 minutes.And the personnel that work in the cargo hold in fuselage must be noted that and not damage loose merchandize, also do not damage the cargo hold structure.This causes being easy to very soon and inadvertently described personnel's flesh bone supporting system is produced the action of major injury, thereby has more increased the danger of injury to personnel.
For loose merchandize is delivered to hatch opening from the hardstand, perhaps send into interior of aircraft and just in the adjacent area of hatch opening back, (can goods be placed in the cargo hold from this by the staff then), known basically following method, for example:
DE19961349 A1 has introduced a kind of tracker action that is used for the loading and unloading aircraft, and this device comprises chassis and the conveyor assembly (for example belt conveyor) that is positioned on this chassis.In order to use this tracker action that dissimilar load (for example loose merchandize) is delivered in the aircraft from the hardstand or from the transport plane that arrives the hardstand; in DE19961349 A1, propose this tracker action main forwarder is arranged; the height of this main forwarder and can regulate with respect to the chassis along the degree of dip of throughput direction; this tracker action also has at least one the transmission forwarder at vertical end place of main forwarder, and this transmission forwarder is used for main relatively forwarder around the horizontal cross shaft pivoted.By this tracker action, loose merchandize can be transported to the hatch opening of aircraft from the hardstand, and be transported in the aircraft by this hatch opening.
Motor-driven load transfer device like this can not be used for each airport, but, has proposed this device is emplaned in DE29721959 U1.Luggage loading attachment described in DE29721959 U1, that be used for aircraft (it comprises belt conveyer) is installed in the air transport pallet, and is placed in the fuselage.In the course of the work, belt conveyer is stretched out by the loading opening of aircraft, tilts towards the hardstand downwards, is adjusted to Len req, and its bottom is bearing on the hardstand.Like this, loose merchandize can upwards be sent to hatch opening from the hardstand, perhaps send downwards from hatch opening.
WO98/54073 has introduced a kind of conveyor mechanism; the front portion of this conveyor mechanism can be passed hatch opening and introduce in the cargo hold of aircraft; and cross the cargo hold base plate by Caster and move; this conveyor mechanism provides belt conveyor; this belt conveyor leads to the rear end of cargo hold from the hardstand; as the support that is used for the loading and unloading operation, this operation is at this moment also manually carried out by operating personal.In order to operate conveyor mechanism, it advances towards the aircraft on the hardstand, and its first is increased to the hatch opening height in mode in the slope; another part is introduced hatch opening; at these crooked 90 degree, then, another part and cargo hold inwall stretch to the cargo hold rear end from hatch opening abreast.Be erected at whole width extension that the additional platen on the base plate will cross cargo hold and adjustable height in the rear end.Therefore; suitcase, bag and other items can carry out loading and unloading; wherein load and carry out like this; promptly these goods are delivered to the end (in the platen front) of belt conveyor in the cargo hold from the hardstand by means of belt conveyor; these goods will be from pulling on platen by the people who kneels on platen here; and dragged platen, then they are shifted onto on the loose merchandize stacking of formation.In the shortcoming of the device described in the WO98/540734 is to handle when improper when in platen and the conveyor mechanism any one, probably wrap up structure inevitably.When regulating the height of this platen under the situation about placing at loose merchandize on the platen, have by the danger that directly damages inwall near the platen end of inwall.When introducing extremely long and extremely heavy belt conveyor, can not get rid of the damage hatch opening.And when the one row's loose merchandize of stacking, this auxiliary device has no to help, and it must move a certain distance backward, reorientates, and is connected with platen, and this equals and must redirect.
In DE10007332 A1, another embodiment of bottom means of delivery can move on the hardstand, and comprises the endless belt conveyer that stretches in the cargo hold.DE10007332 A1 provides the reversed conveyor assembly that is used for goods, and it comprises outrigger, this outrigger pivotable, and the height and adjustable length so that in passenger plane the loading and unloading luggage and articles.It has avoided the transition station.In cargo hold, also manually carry out by staff at this place for the processing that luggage is placed in cargo hold and taken out.
For the ease of the work of the staff in the cargo hold, the applicant for example proposes the loading attachment of aircraft hold in DE4238095 A1.Proving effect is good under daily state roughly in the loading and unloading process of aircraft for this cargo hold loading attachment, and carried out successful propaganda by the applicant, for example by prospectus " slip blanket Load System (The Sliding Carpet LoadingSystem) ".This feedway covers the backplate surface of cargo hold, be used in particular for the inner and cargo hold rear end transmission to cargo hold off and in loading process with loose merchandize, and in uninstall process, make goods leave cargo hold, and the front end of feedway stretches in the hatch opening of fuselage interior, and is the form of carrying blanket in successful especially embodiment.
These devices or feedway help or reduce in cargo hold, to use artificial, but that they still need to use is artificial, particularly in the holdhatch scope.As previously mentioned; the staff must receive luggage or the loose merchandize that upwards is sent to hatch opening by outer carriers mechanism from the hardstand; be in control position like a hen on a hot girdle simultaneously; and stacks of cargo is placed in the cargo hold, and therefore continue goods is transported to cargo hold inside at the width that for example crosses fuselage for the front end of the feedway of carrying the blanket form.Therefore; in order to unload; need the staff to utilize the feedway in the cargo hold that loose merchandize is taken out to the hatch opening place again; pick up loose merchandize; in uncomfortable position (bend over or squat) transport this goods to the outer carriers device, stretch into the end in the hatch opening; and goods supplied with this end, by means of the outer carriers device goods is transported to the hardstand downwards then.
And the common salary of personnel of being responsible for these work is lower, and therefore undertrained does not have enough initiatives.Therefore often produce accidental damage, particularly in the hatch opening zone, although this obviously can be avoided to the aircaft configuration in the cargo hold.Therefore, owing to required maintenance cause very expensive, and corresponding the reduction aircraft life-span.
Summary of the invention
Therefore; the objective of the invention is by providing a kind of system to avoid some above-mentioned shortcoming at least; this system is combined into general conception with the known feedway in aircraft hold with the conveyor mechanism that is positioned at outside the aircraft; like this; in loading process, can under the situation of not utilizing the staff in the cargo hold, automatically loose merchandize be transported in the cargo hold from the hardstand, and be placed in the cargo hold automatically; and in uninstall process, can automatically goods be transported on the hardstand from cargo hold again.
And, the objective of the invention is to determine to be suitable for the intermediate transport apparatus of this purposes.
And; the intermediate transport apparatus that the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of system and be applicable to this system; therefore, a kind of known feedway in aircraft hold can be combined into general conception with the exterior conveyor mechanism of aircraft, like this; in loading process; loose merchandize can be transported in the cargo hold from the hardstand, and is placed in this cargo hold, and in uninstall process; goods can be sent back on the hardstand health that in processing, can not endanger the staff simultaneously again from cargo hold.
At last; the objective of the invention is to determine the intermediate transport apparatus; and not can be used for known feedway in the aircraft hold; and general conception is to have only the exterior conveyor mechanism of aircraft can stretch in the cargo hold; like this; loose merchandize can be in loading process in the hardstand is transported to cargo hold and be placed on the cargo hold, can also in uninstall process, send back on the hardstand health that in processing, can not endanger the staff simultaneously from cargo hold.
The present invention provides a kind of system that is used at cargo hold (particularly aircraft hold) loading and unloading loose merchandize for the first time, this system comprises: feedway, this feedway covers the cargo hold baseplate zone, be used in particular for loose merchandize being sent to cargo hold the inner on loading process discontinuous ground, and in uninstall process, send from this, wherein, the front end of feedway stretches in the fuselage interior hatch opening zone; And conveyor mechanism; this conveyor mechanism is connected with hatch opening in the aircraft outside; be used between hardstand height and hatch opening, carrying loose merchandize; wherein; propose for the first time; at least one intermediate transport apparatus is arranged between the front end of the feedway in the aircraft side end of conveyor mechanism and the cargo hold; thereby in loading process; loose merchandize can be at first deeper transmits in fuselage along the direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of aircraft; longitudinal direction along aircraft transmits subsequently; and be stacked in the cargo hold at the front end of feedway; and in uninstall process, cross the front end of feedway and the loose merchandize sent in the hatch opening of aircraft can be along sending by hatch opening transverse to the direction of the longitudinal axis of aircraft.
Therefore, advantageously can in the process of loading and unloading loose merchandize, eliminate fully for the first time in cargo hold, use artificial.Like this, not only save relevant cost of labor, and therefore reduce job costs, and make that simultaneously the danger that damages the cargo hold structure is decreased to zero.By the danger that reduces to damage, advantageously make the high maintenance cost that is used to keep in repair the standing time of this damage and therefore produces all be decreased to zero substantially simultaneously.And, system of the present invention provides cargo hold has been carried out automatic loading and discharged advantage, simultaneously, even under strike or analogue, also reliably guarantee the minimum throughput speed of customer requirements, promptly no matter can both in about 10 minutes, handle at least 5 tons reliably with night by day.And, for the first time the system of the present invention that proposes can utilize available cargo area and available cargo capacity best in the automatic loading of cargo hold and unloading, in a preferred embodiment, system for example of the present invention can adopt right sensors, pick up camera, control circuit and/or artificial intelligence, like this, loose merchandize can not only be stacked and place automatically, and is in the position that idle gap is still arranged in the cargo hold especially.
And system of the present invention can be advantageously used in for example permanent cargo hold that is installed in aircraft.At this moment, advantageously can change, so that adapt to the various boundary between various aircraft, for example, in structure, be used to absorb with the geometric configuration of the bulk of the position of the disposable load point of dispersancy, cargo hold, cargo hold, hatch opening with respect to the position of cargo hold etc.By making the system of the present invention of local condition of aircraft of suitable particular type of the loading and unloading be used for cargo hold, can eliminate damage unintentionally fully to the aircaft configuration of cargo area (particularly hatch opening zone), because the intermediate transport apparatus is installed in the cargo hold, therefore in operating process, do not need to enter in the cargo hold by hatch opening, therefore, certainly can not occur in and fear the damage that occurs in this processing.
The system that proposes and can make for example obtainable high-strength aluminium, carbon fiber composite material or compound by the material that for example weight is light especially for the first time especially for the intermediate transport apparatus of this system.Therefore, when adopting the corresponding rigid type face component of these materials, can be so that the total weight of intermediate transport apparatus be reduced to such degree satisfactorily, promptly the permanent layout of intermediate transport apparatus in aircraft hold can not have a negative impact aspect the available transport capacity of maximum.Similarly rigidity and simultaneously the extremely light profile parts of weight can not only provide and make the low especially advantage of total weight of intermediate transport apparatus, can also be formed in simultaneously the intermediate transport apparatus that will not need to bear tired work in the regular job, for example consider and to come the very heavy loose merchandize of translator unit by it, perhaps consider the maximum load when the big quality of loose merchandize is handled up, special fast speed loads and/or unloading so that carry out.
In the same preferred variation of system of the present invention, the intermediate transport apparatus can with the conveyor mechanism mechanical connection that is used on the hardstand, moving.The conveyor mechanism that can move on the hardstand can prolong on the substantially linear ground, place, end facing to hatch opening at it by the intermediate transport apparatus then.Such advantage is: reduced the concern to weight, so middle device can have bigger cost benefit aspect material, also have enough intensity or load ability to bear.In this preferred compositions, can not eliminate fully the damage of the zone line around the hatch opening, because the intermediate transport apparatus must introduce by hatch opening, and locate across with the longitudinal direction of aircraft.But, by having the operation of corresponding technical ability, the danger of this damage can be ignored.And, under any circumstance, can eliminate damage to cargo hold self or its formation structure.
Because system of the present invention especially for the intermediate transport apparatus of this system, can shorten the loading and unloading time of aircraft, thereby reduce running cost.
By system of the present invention, goods is moved in the loading and unloading process, so that in loading process, specially be deposited on the feedway in the cargo hold, and in uninstall process, specially pick up and see off goods from this.Such major advantage is that available cargo hold (the particularly clear area of cargo hold) can be by being taken by loaded with articles, loose merchandize, luggage etc. best.Particularly, because green phase induction sensor, pick up camera, control circuit, artificial intelligence etc. and carry out automatically, loaded-up condition that therefore can permanent monitoring cargo hold, thus this system can correspondingly adapt to various situations.
Therefore, in a preferred embodiment also, in the hatch opening zone between intermediate transport apparatus and cargo hold base plate and on the cargo hold base plate, horizontal arrangement has dish, this dish covers the baseplate zone of cargo hold and the territory, base plate lateral areas of hatch opening.The advantage of this dish (particularly catch pan) is; even when hatch opening stretches in the bottom section of fuselage; whole width of cargo hold also can load loose merchandize; the danger that does not have loose merchandize between conveyor mechanism and hatch opening, to fall simultaneously from end outer carriers mechanism, that face toward hatch opening; in the worst case, (this slips away and can not eliminate fully) will drop on the hardstand when the slipping away of " crossing the turning " taken place.
In a preferred embodiment also, dish, particularly catch pan (be also referred to as " Door Way Unit ", abbreviate DWU as) can be along the lines of the longitudinal axis that is parallel to aircraft and upwards folding.Therefore, this guarantees can leave the adjacent area of hatch opening and fold into cargo hold inside towards the middle part near this dish of hatch opening or the part of DWU, like this after the loading or unloading operation in preferred mode, hatch opening will empty fully afterwards, and can be closed by cargo door.
According to going back a preferred embodiment, the feedway in cargo hold is to carry blanket.Except continuously, be interrupted or intermittently with loose merchandize to the inner advantage that transmits of cargo hold, this can also save the space greatly, because should carry the system height of blanket low especially, therefore, by the cargo hold cargo capacity of losing for the feedway of carrying the blanket form for example being installed seldom.
In an also preferred embodiment of system of the present invention, the intermediate transport apparatus comprises at least one first conveyor mechanism, and this first conveyor mechanism can change length along direction of transfer, preferably belt conveyor.This belt conveyor receives loose merchandize from the aircraft side end of outer carriers mechanism in the hatch opening zone in loading process, and the edge is transverse to the direction transmission goods of the longitudinal axis of aircraft, wherein, its back, end in fuselage is another conveyor mechanism and then, belt conveyor preferably, this belt conveyor receives loose merchandize from first conveyor mechanism, and along the longitudinal direction of aircraft its front end to the feedway in cargo hold is transmitted.This advantageously guarantees to receive loose merchandize in the hatch opening zone, and it is further turn 90 degrees and carry around the turning in minimum space, adapts to the respective width of dissimilar aircrafts simultaneously well.
