All other embodiments, which can be obtained by a person skilled in the art without inventive effort based on the embodiments of the present invention, are within the scope of the present invention.
As shown in fig. 1, the automatic access robot according to the embodiment of the present invention includes not only a vehicle body 1, a traveling mechanism 2, and a reversing jacking integrated mechanism 3. The automatic access robot may further include: an electronic control system 4, a communication module 5, a battery and charging system 6, and control software 7. The control software 7 is stored in the robot control computer memory, the form of which is not limited here. The control software inside the servo motor driver does not fall within the category of control software described herein. The communication module 5 and the battery and charging system 6 can be arranged on two sides of the bottom of the vehicle body 1, and guardrails can be arranged on two sides for protection.
The electronic control system 4 may comprise a robot control computer, control circuits, servo motors and their drivers, sensors, I/O circuits, etc. The electric control system 4 and the control software 7 realize the functions of whole vehicle motion control, basket storage and taking, anti-collision alarm, multi-machine cooperative work and the like. The communication module 5 is responsible for networking communication between the robot and a warehouse upper computer (dispatching center) and between the robots. The battery and charging system 6 is responsible for managing the discharging monitoring and charging management of the robot lithium ion power battery pack.
The body 1 is the basic frame and housing of the robot for automatic access, carrying other system components. The running mechanism 2 consists of two groups of eight wheels, and two servo motors are adopted to drive two active wheels in each group to control the robot to run in four directions, namely front and back, left and right, on the track. The reversing jacking integrated mechanism 3 adopts a bidirectional positive and negative thread ball screw linear guide rail to drive the two lifting roller mounting seats 31 to move relatively, and the integrated mechanism can realize two functions of reversing and lifting the goods basket. The first stroke finishes the reversing function of the two groups of running wheels on the mutually vertical tracks, the second stroke finishes the lifting and descending functions of the goods basket, and the mechanism simultaneously realizes the switching of the two groups of four-wheel mechanisms of the robot and the placement and picking of the goods basket at the appointed goods position.
As shown in fig. 2, the vehicle body 1 is a basic frame of the robot and carries other system components, including three relatively movable frames, an upper frame 8, a middle frame 9 and a lower frame 10. The three frames are formed by welding square steel, wherein the bearing beam 11 and the wheel seat 12 are used as the reference for the installation and connection of the robot, and the requirements of positioning and installation precision are guaranteed at the seam allowance by means of machining technology. The three frames are stacked in the upper-middle-lower order, and guide posts 46 with springs (as shown in fig. 5) are installed at four corners or middle positions of each frame, so that the middle frame 9 and the upper frame 8 can move up and down relative to each other based on the lower frame 10.
As shown in fig. 3, the running gear 2 is composed of two sets of eight wheels, which can be divided into a transverse wheel set and a longitudinal wheel set. Each set of four wheels comprises two driving wheels and two driven wheels, one set of four wheels (a longitudinal wheel set comprising a longitudinal driving wheel 24 and a longitudinal driven wheel 25) is mounted on the middle frame 9 and is responsible for the running of the robot on a transverse rail or plane, and the other set of four wheels (a transverse wheel set comprising a transverse driving wheel 21 and a transverse driven wheel 22) is mounted on the lower frame 10 and is responsible for the running of the robot on a longitudinal rail or plane. Also, a plurality of compression springs 34 may be provided between the middle frame 9 and the lower frame 10.
Two servo motors are adopted to drive two driving wheels in each group to control the robot to run in four directions, namely front and back directions and left and right directions on a track or a plane, and the servo motors and drivers thereof and driving wheels driven by the servo motors are arranged on the same frame.
The two driving wheels (two transverse driving wheels 21 or two longitudinal driving wheels 24) of each group are connected through a shaft (a transverse driving wheel shaft 23 or a longitudinal driving wheel shaft 26) to realize synchronous rotation, and the driven wheels (also called driven wheels, such as a transverse driven wheel 22 or a longitudinal driven wheel 25) are respectively connected with the vehicle body through short shafts. The transverse driving motor 35 drives the transverse driving wheel shaft 23 to rotate, and the longitudinal driving motor 37 drives the longitudinal driving wheel shaft 26 to rotate. Two groups of wheels are switched through the first stroke of the reversing jacking integrated mechanism arranged on the lower frame, so that the robot can be freely switched in the transverse direction and the longitudinal direction at the mutually vertical rail crossing.
It should be noted that the driving wheel and the driven wheel are used for driving, which is only an example. The transverse wheel set and the longitudinal wheel set can also be driven in other modes, and the details are not repeated. In addition, the horizontal and vertical directions are merely for the purpose of more clearly describing the present invention, and the horizontal and vertical directions may be interchanged when the robot is changed in position or the viewing angle is changed. The invention can ensure that the running directions of the two wheel sets are vertical to each other.
As shown in fig. 4, the reversing jacking integrated mechanism 3 may include: two lifting roller mounting seats 31, a sliding table 32, a lower roller 33, a threaded ball screw 38, a lifting motor 39 and an upper roller 40. Wherein, the screw ball screw 38 is located above the slide table 32, and the lifting motor 39 is provided on one side of the screw ball screw 38. The output shaft of the lifting motor 39 and the threaded ball screw 38 can be fixed through a coupler. The two lifting roller mounting seats 31 are symmetrically arranged on the threaded ball screw 38. The threaded ball screw 38 may be a bidirectional positive and negative threaded ball screw. The linear guide rail of the threaded ball screw 38 drives the two lifting roller mounting seats 31 to move relatively, including two strokes, the first stroke drives the middle frame 9 and the lower frame 10 to move relatively, and then drives the two groups of eight wheels to move up and down, thereby completing the reversing function of the two groups of running wheels on the mutually perpendicular rails. The second stroke drives the upper frame 8 and the lower frame 10 (or the middle frame 9) to move relatively, so that the lifting function of the cargo basket is realized. Two mechanisms share the sliding table 32, and two important functions of switching of two groups of four-wheel mechanisms of the robot and placing and picking of the goods basket in a specified goods position are realized by different strokes. The sliding table 32 structure can ensure that the cargo frame is not depressed to a lower height when the robot bears the cargo to move.
The three frames of the vehicle body 1, the running mechanism 2 and the reversing jacking integrated mechanism 3 are shown in the installation and connection relationship through a reversing jacking integrated mechanism installation drawing (shown in figure 5). The reversing jack-up integrated mechanism 3 is mounted to the lower frame 10 via a slide table 32.
Two middle frame lifting rails 36 and four upper frame lifting rails 41 are installed opposite to each other at the respective frames as sliding rails for the lower rollers 33 and the upper rollers 40, respectively.
It should be noted that fig. 5 only shows an example of the relative positions of the lower roller 33 and the upper roller 40. In other embodiments, the positions of the lower roller 33 and the upper roller 40 may be interchanged.
As shown in fig. 5, the middle frame lift rail 36 includes: the guide rail comprises a bottom plane, a top plane and guide rail inclined planes, wherein the top plane is arranged on two sides of the bottom plane, and the guide rail inclined planes are arranged between the bottom plane and the top plane. The guide rail inclined plane can be an inclined plane or can be arranged into a paraboloid.
The upper frame lifting rail 41 is disposed in parallel with the middle frame lifting rail 36, and the upper frame lifting rail 41 at least partially overlaps the top plane of the middle frame lifting rail 36 in the longitudinal direction. The upper frame lifting rail 41 may be provided as a slope surface inclined from the middle to the side.
The first stroke of the reversing and jacking integrated mechanism 3 finishes the reversing function of the robot on the mutually vertical tracks. The switching of the two groups of running wheels on the mutually vertical tracks is completed by driving the middle frame 9 and the lower frame 10 to move relatively. The specific process is as follows:
when the trolley transversely runs, the two lifting roller installation seats 31 on the sliding table 32 move to the middle of the sliding table 32 (located at the middle position of the bottom plane of the lifting guide rail 36 of the middle frame), and the middle frame 9 is pushed upwards under the action of the 4 compression springs 34. The 4 wheels (longitudinal wheel set) of the middle frame 9 leave the ground, the four wheels (transverse wheel set) of the lower frame 10 land, and the robot performs transverse walking operation under the driving of the transverse driving motor 35.
When the trolley longitudinally travels, the two lifting roller mounting seats 31 positioned in the middle of the sliding table 32 move towards two sides, and at the moment, the lower rollers 33 roll on the lifting guide rails 36 of the middle frame 9. After entering the inclined plane of the guide rail in the process of moving to both sides, the lifting guide rail 36 is pressed downwards to drive the middle frame 9 to move downwards, finally, four wheels (longitudinal wheel sets) of the middle frame 9 land, four wheels (transverse wheel sets) of the lower frame 10 leave the ground, and under the action of the longitudinal driving motor 37, the robot executes longitudinal walking operation.
The second stroke of the reversing jacking integrated mechanism 3 drives the upper frame 8 and the lower frame 10 to move relatively, so that the function of jacking the cargo basket is realized. The specific process is as follows:
after the lifting roller mounting base 31 located in the middle of the sliding table 32 enters the upper plane (i.e., the top plane) of the lifting guide rail 36, if the movement is continued to both sides, the upper roller 40 rolls on the upper frame lifting guide rail 41. The lower side of the upper frame lifting guide rail 41 is a slope surface which inclines from the middle to the side, the upper roller 40 rolls on the slope surface of the lifting guide rail 41 to drive the upper frame 8 to move upwards, so that the upper frame 8 is lifted, otherwise, the upper frame 8 is lowered, and therefore the goods basket lifting, picking and lowering actions carried by the upper frame are completed.
It should be noted that 3 servo motors (the transverse driving motor 35, the longitudinal driving motor 37 and the lifting motor 39) are 4 actuating mechanisms of the electric control system, four-way walking, reversing and basket lifting and placing functions are completed, and the 3 servo motors CAN be networked and communicated with the control computer in real time through field buses (EtherCAT, CAN, 485 and the like).
The communication module 5 adopts a 2G/4G/5G module to connect the robot to a network, so as to realize low-cost networking communication between the robot and a warehouse upper computer (dispatching center) and between the robots, a physical layer, a data link layer, a network layer and the like are completely shared with the network, and an application layer adopts a secondary developed network protocol to realize real-time high-speed networking communication of multiple robots and ensure that the multiple robots cooperatively complete high-speed warehouse storage and retrieval of goods baskets.
The battery and charging system 6 is responsible for managing the discharging monitoring and charging management of the robot lithium ion battery pack, and has the main functions of monitoring parameters such as voltage, current and temperature of each battery in real time in the process of storing and taking goods by the robot, and performing battery charging equalization management and parameter monitoring after entering a charging goods space.
After the robot is powered on, wireless communication connection is firstly established with an upper computer (not shown in the figure), the robot is on line and enters a wireless network established by the upper computer, meanwhile, the initial position information of the robot is obtained, and then, an ex-warehouse or in-warehouse instruction of the upper computer is waited.
If an warehousing instruction is received, the robot automatically runs from the current position to an appointed inlet goods position picking basket of the stereoscopic warehouse through a transverse or longitudinal rail along a path planned by the upper computer, if the layer is required to be changed, the robot automatically runs to the position of the elevator, enters the elevator under the scheduling of the upper computer, leaves the elevator after reaching the appointed layer, and runs to the inlet goods position picking basket. And after the baskets are obtained, the baskets are respectively placed at the appointed stock position by a transverse or longitudinal rail and a lifter according to the path planned by the upper computer.
If receiving the delivery instruction, the robot automatically runs from the current position to the specified storage position of the stereoscopic warehouse through the transverse or longitudinal rail respectively along the path planned by the upper computer to pick up the goods basket, if needing to change the layer, the robot automatically runs to the position of the elevator, enters the elevator under the dispatching of the upper computer, leaves the elevator after reaching the specified layer, and runs to the storage position to pick up the goods basket. And after the baskets are obtained, the baskets are continuously placed in the specified outlet goods space of the stereoscopic warehouse through the transverse or longitudinal rail and the elevator according to the path planned by the upper computer.
If the goods baskets need to be moved in the stereoscopic warehouse, the lifting machine runs to a specified position to place the goods baskets through the transverse or longitudinal rails after picking up the goods baskets at a certain goods position along a planned path according to the instruction of the upper computer.
The robot reports information such as self position, voltage, current and the like in real time in the running process, if the electric quantity of the battery is lower than a specified value, the robot automatically enters a specified charging position to be charged, and the robot continues to be put into operation after the charging is finished.
When the robot runs, the robot finds that the self mechanism breaks down, immediately sends out sound and light alarm, and sends out fault information to an upper computer. The automatic storing and taking robot can also be provided with various sensors (such as speed, acceleration, angle sensors, optical sensors and the like), and when the robot stops abnormally due to abnormal conditions (such as accidents that the basket collapses and blocks the tunnel and the like which affect the safety) in the process of storing and taking the basket in the tunnel, the robot gives out sound and light alarm and sends alarm information to the upper computer.
