Definitions

  • This invention relates to a storage and retrieval unit with a chassis for supporting a mast comprising at least one carriage together with guide elements, at least one drive element associated with the carriage including drive motor and with at least one rail associated with the carriage.
  • a stacker crane with a C-profile rail and a movable platform on which a mast is mounted goes out of the FR 2549814 A1 out.
  • storage and retrieval unit drives a top and bottom respectively centrally arranged on a carriage motor drive rollers, which roll on a rail.
  • a pallet truck is thereby moved via belt systems, which are each guided around an upper and a lower roller in the vertical direction.
  • the drive element for example in the form of a drive belt or - gurtes placed next to the rail for guiding the carriage, so that a specially provided storage space must be provided, the corresponding space needed and set up for this purpose.
  • the off-center drive element guide leads to a disadvantageous load on the chassis.
  • the rail for guiding the carriage in the known stacker cranes of several elements is composed, which are welded at the joints, because in a guide of the rollers on the upper Schienenprofl Structure otherwise no other form of connection is possible. Since the welds must be renewed over time, resulting in undesirable downtime.
  • the invention therefore has as its object to provide a small, lightweight, compact chassis as possible, which optimally guides the occurring during operation of a stacker crane static and dynamic forces in a rail or in a subsoil.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a storage and retrieval unit, which has a short design and allows by reducing the Anfahrnike a high storage utilization.
  • a storage and retrieval unit is to be created, which allows by its construction the provision of a reliable and durable rail joint.
  • this is achieved in that the drive element is guided centrally and directly above the rail, so that at least one partial area - seen in installation orientation - immediately above the at least one rail of guide elements is free, and that the drive motor on the carriage approximately centrally over the at least one Rail is arranged.
  • This clearance directly above the rail creates the possibility of arranging the drive elements so that a direct, torque-free dissipation of the forces, in particular the driving forces is ensured in the rail. It is thereby made possible that the drive element is guided centrally and immediately above the rail.
  • a guide of the drive element and an arrangement of the drive motor outside the rail axis creates an eccentricity of the driving force to the rail.
  • such eccentric load is prevented by the arrangement of the drive on the rail.
  • the latter has a particularly advantageous effect on the wear and thus on the life of the guide elements of the carriage.
  • the carriage of the storage and retrieval unit according to the invention is not arranged above the rail but on both sides of the rail, whereby a compact design is possible.
  • drive motors and control unit for driving the drive element are arranged on the carriage.
  • the elimination of the arranged on the rail impeller has the advantage that the accessibility to the cabinet of the stacker crane is very simplified, because - because of the low position height of, for example, control cabinet - no climbing aids, fall protection et cetera required.
  • a possible embodiment of the storage and retrieval unit according to the invention may consist in that the vertical loads of removing guide elements are guided on mutually facing inner surfaces of the rail.
  • At least a first guide element of the carriage is guided on a first inner surface of a first flange of the at least one rail
  • at least a second guide element of the carriage is guided on a second inner surface of a second flange of the at least one rail second inner surface of the second flange faces the first inner surface of the first flange.
  • the appropriate flange surfaces of the rail allow a structurally simple guiding of the guide elements on rail inner surfaces and the keeping clear of the upper outer surface of the rail for the placement of the drive element.
  • guide elements which are guided on the facing surfaces of the flanges
  • further guide elements can be arranged to optimize, for example, the tracking of the chassis or the removal of the loads on the rail.
  • the rail may have a polygonal cross-section.
  • a preferred variant is that the rail has a cross section of a double T-beam.
  • the rail for guiding the chassis of a stacker crane undergoes a variety of loads by, for example, the weight of the chassis, the mast and the load basket or by braking and accelerating the stacker crane. Because of the large number of possible load cases is a possible optimization of the cross section of the loads occurring part of the design of the chassis of the storage and retrieval system according to the invention.
  • Rails with a double T-section which are most commonly used for storage and retrieval machines, can also be used in the context of this invention.
  • Another embodiment of the stacker crane according to the invention may be that at least one of the guide elements is a roller.
  • rollers on, for example, the web-side surfaces of a flange of a rail with a double-T-cross-sectional shape causes a small diameter of the rollers. This can only be done if that entire storage and retrieval unit, in particular the mast of the stacker crane is designed in sufficiently light construction.
  • four rollers are guided on the inside of the upper belt as the first surface of a rail flange and four rollers on the inside of the lower belt as a second surface of a rail flange.
  • the running surfaces for these wheels, especially in the area of the rail joint are very easy to adjust via clamped foot bases.
  • Those wheels, which are guided on the inner surface of the upper belt of the rail serve only for the derivation of the starting or Abbremsmomentes the chassis in the rail.
  • the inventive arrangement of the wheels as guide elements has the advantage that a welded joint of the rail joint is not absolutely necessary.
  • the rail joint can be created by a plate which is screwed and / or clamped on the surface of the flange not driven by the wheels. Compared to a welded rail joint, the bolted connection has a higher fatigue strength.
  • a further embodiment of the chassis according to the invention may be that at least one of the guide elements is a sliding element.
  • Drive element is arranged at least in partial areas in installation orientation immediately above the rail longitudinal axis.
  • a preferred embodiment may be that the drive element is at least one drive belt.
  • the invention also includes that the drive element, at least in partial areas in installation orientation on the rail, in more detail on a portion of the mounting flange in the upper flange surface of the rail can be placed.
  • a drive belt is very well suited as a drive element.
  • the drive belt in the embodiment of the chassis according to the invention especially in relation to the guiding of the guide elements along the web-side flange has the advantage that the drive belt can be placed on the rail at least in some areas. Since the carriage follows the exact straight track, further means such as the arrangement of belt supports on the ground or laterally arranged belt supports for guiding or tensioning the belt are not necessary. Likewise, the drive belt can be easily attached to the ends of the rail.
  • a belt applied to the rail does not constitute a stumbling block for workers, for example.
  • chassis of the stacker crane is driven by other means known in the art and a combination of these means.
  • the embodiment of the chassis according to the invention may be characterized in that the drive motor is arranged on the carriage centrically above the rail.
  • Fig.1 shows a storage and retrieval device with a chassis 9 for supporting a mast 10, which has a carriage 1 together with guide elements 2, 2 'and a slide 1 associated drive element 3 together with the drive motor 5, and with a carriage 1 associated rail 4, wherein according to the invention a portion seen in installation orientation immediately above the rail 4 of guide elements 2, 2 'is free.
  • the area immediately above the upper outer surface of the rail 4 is kept free over its entire extent and thus serves not as a guide surface for guide elements but as a support surface for the elongate drive element 3, which is e.g. may be in the form of a drive belt or belt.
  • the vertical loads-removing guide elements 2, 2 ' are guided substantially below the upper edge of the rail 4 in an inner region thereof on mutually facing inner surfaces 21, 21'.
  • Fig.2 shows, without limiting the generality based on the illustrated embodiment, the profile of the rail 4, which has a polygonal cross-section and is in the form of a double-T-beam. It can also be used differently shaped rail profiles used.
  • second guide elements 2 'of the carriage 1 are arranged on a second upper inner surface 21' of a second flange 20 'of the rail 4, which second surface 21' of the second flange 20 'of the first surface 21 of the first flange 20 faces.
  • the number and arrangement of the guide elements 2, 2 ' can be varied as desired within the scope of the invention.
  • Essential to the invention is an arrangement in which on the upper surface of the rail 4 none of these guide elements 2, 2 'is guided in order to allow a central guidance of the drive element 3, which brings significant structural advantages.
  • the guide elements 2 are divided into pairs and mounted by means of an associated rocker (not shown). This ensures that the introduced vertical forces are evenly distributed to the individual rollers of the double pairs of guide elements 2, even if it comes to a slight deflection of the carriage 1 by the stress.
  • the guide elements 2 are preferably arranged in the region immediately below the mast and the guide elements 2 'each adjacent to outside of this range, thereby to achieve a respective optimal introduction of the loads in the rail 4.
  • the lateral guidance of the undercarriage 9 take over lateral guide elements 2 "which do not introduce any vertical but only horizontal forces into the rail 4. They can also be attached to a location other than the one illustrated be provided at the web of the rail 4.
  • the mast 10 is fastened by screw connections.
  • the mast 10, e.g. the inclusion of a lifting carriage, not shown, is on the carriage 1 along the rail 4 back and forth.
  • the vertical axis of movement of the stacker crane thus runs along the mast 10, while the horizontal axis of movement of the stacker crane runs along the rail 4.
  • a control cabinet 6 is preferably arranged outside of the mast 10. Because the guide elements 2, 2 'are guided in the same height as the rail 4, the carriage 1 is deeply arranged, so that the control cabinet 6 is easily accessible and thus no additional design measures such as climbs, podiums and possibly fall protection are required.
  • the drive motor 5 is further arranged on the carriage 1, which moves the carriage 1 via the drive element 3, as a rule a drive belt.
  • the drive element 3 is attached to the ends of the rail 4 by fasteners 7, 7 '.
  • the unequal load F ', F "of the guide elements is minimized with a tensile force F.
  • placing the drive element 3 is advantageous in that, for example, it is not supported by further means and There are thus no further additional means for fixing the drive element 3 at the rail end necessary.
  • the drive element 3 is guided centrally and immediately above the rail 4 or the flange 20 'in order to avoid stressing the lateral side guide elements 2 "due to the applied tensile force 'are guided, an advantageous arrangement of the drive element 3 directly above the rail 4 is possible.
  • the drive motor 5 is arranged directly above the rail 4 and the drive element 3, whereby an eccentric loading of the rail 4 by the driving force F is avoided.
  • FIG 3 shows an embodiment of the invention in which the chassis 9 is preferably formed in connection with a lightweight designed mast 10 of canted Al-profiles, which are screwed together to form two closed longitudinal members with Formrohrquerites.
  • the chassis 9 may be formed of higher strength materials such as steel.
  • the guide elements 2, 2 'drive in the interior of the profile of the rail 4 are either mounted on site together with the carriage 1 on the rail 4 or can be used on the front side if necessary.
