Description

Installation de manutention d'objets. Installation for handling objects.

Une installation de manutention d'objets est généralement constituée d'un poste de travail, d'un dispositif d'arrivée apportant différents objets ou pièces à la disposition d'un opérateur, et d'un dispositif de départ transférant des objets triés et rangés dans une conteneur ou assemblés entre eux, après intervention de l'opérateur. An object handling installation generally consists of a work station, an arrival device bringing different objects or parts available to an operator, and a departure device transferring sorted and stored objects in a container or assembled together, after operator intervention.

Dans les installations connues, les deux dispositifs d'arrivée et de départ sont chacun constitués de convoyeurs disposés orthogonalement entre eux, ce qui oblige à installer, à l'intersection de deux convoyeurs, des tables tournantes Cà 900) ou des dérivations. In known installations, the two arrival and departure devices each consist of conveyors arranged orthogonally to each other, which requires the installation, at the intersection of two conveyors, turn tables Cà 900) or branches.

Ces tables tournantes ou ces dérivations limitent la cadence de passage des conteneurs. De plus, l'opérateur est obligé de se déplacer, ce qui est une perte de temps et une fatigue inutile, pour prendre un objet dans un conteneur d'arrivée et le déposer dans un conteneur de départ, ou l'assembler avec d'autres pièces pour constituer un ensemble monté. These turntables or these diversions limit the rate of passage of the containers. In addition, the operator is obliged to move, which is a waste of time and unnecessary fatigue, to pick up an object in an arrival container and drop it in a departure container, or assemble it with other parts to constitute a mounted assembly.

La présente invention permet d'augmenter la cadence de passage des conteneurs et de diminuer la fatigue de l'opérateur en rendant le poste ergonomique. En effet, les conteneurs d'arrivée et les conteneurs de départ, ou les ensembles montés, sont à la portée de l'opérateur. The present invention makes it possible to increase the rate of passage of the containers and to reduce the operator's fatigue by making the station ergonomic. In fact, the arrival containers and the departure containers, or the assembled assemblies, are within the reach of the operator.

La présente invention a pour objet une installation de manutention d'objets, comportant au moins un poste de travail, un dispositif d'arrivée des objets au poste de travail, un dispositif de départ des objets, caractérisée en ce que les dispositifs d'arrivée et de départ sont chacun constitués d'àu moins un magasin circulaire tournant. The subject of the present invention is an installation for handling objects, comprising at least one work station, a device for arriving objects at the work station, a device for leaving objects, characterized in that the arrival devices and starting points are each made up of at least one rotating circular magazine.

Un magasin de départ peut avoir un diamètre égal à environ la moitié de celui d'un magasin d'arrivée. A departure store can have a diameter equal to about half that of an arrival store.

Dans le cas d'un installation comportant un deuxième magasin d'arrivée, celui-ci permet d'augmenter le nombre de conteneurs mis à la disposition de l'opérateur, et de masquer totalement le temps nécessaire à la rotation du premier magasin d'arrivée.  In the case of an installation comprising a second arrival store, this makes it possible to increase the number of containers made available to the operator, and to completely mask the time necessary for the rotation of the first store. arrival.

Quel que soit le diamètre, ou le nombre de magasins, un magasin d'arrivée est alimenté par un transtockeur et un magasin de départ peut être vidé par le même transtockeur, par un autre, ou par un convoyeur. Whatever the diameter, or the number of stores, an arrival store is supplied by a stacker crane and a departure store can be emptied by the same stacker crane, by another, or by a conveyor.

Il est décrit ci-après, à titre d'exemple et en référence aux dessins annexés, plusieurs installations selon l'invention. Several installations according to the invention are described below, by way of example and with reference to the accompanying drawings.

- La figure 1 montre une installation comportant un magasin d'arrivée et un magasin de départ-, de même diamètre. - Figure 1 shows an installation comprising an arrival store and a departure store-, of the same diameter.

- La figure 2 montre une installation comportant un magasin de départ d'un diamètre égal à environ la moitié de celui du magasin d'arrivée. - Figure 2 shows an installation comprising a departure store with a diameter equal to about half that of the arrival store.

- La figure 3 montre la même installation que celle de la figure 2, avec un magasin d'arrivée supplémentaire, d'un diamètre égal à celui de l'autre magasin arrivée.  - Figure 3 shows the same installation as that of Figure 2, with an additional arrival store, with a diameter equal to that of the other arrival store.

- La figure 4 montre la même installation que celle de la figure 3, mais, dans ce cas, les magasins d'arrivée sont alimentés d'un côté de l'installation, tandis que le magasin de départ est vidé de l'autre côté. - Figure 4 shows the same installation as that of Figure 3, but, in this case, the arrival stores are supplied on one side of the installation, while the departure store is emptied on the other side .

Dans la figure 1 sont représentés un poste de travail 10, un magasin d'arrivée 20, un magasin de départ 30 et un transtockeur 50. In FIG. 1 are shown a work station 10, an arrival store 20, a departure store 30 and a stacker crane 50.

L'opérateur, installé sur le poste de travail 10, se fournit en pièces dans les douze conteneurs 21 mis en place sur le magasin d'arrivée 20 par le transtockeur 50. The operator, installed on the work station 10, obtains parts from the twelve containers 21 set up on the arrival store 20 by the stacker crane 50.

Il a aussi, à proximité, le magasin de départ 30 qui contient douze conteneurs 31 s'il s'agit de préparer des commandes concernant des pièces différentes, ou douze ensembles de montage 31 s'il s'agit d'assembler différentes pièces ensemble. It also has, nearby, the warehouse 30 which contains twelve containers 31 if it is a question of preparing orders relating to different parts, or twelve assemblies of assembly 31 if it is a question of assembling different parts together .

Chaque conteneur, ou ensemble 31, quitte l'installation par i'intermédiaire du transtockeur 50 qui circule entre deux rangées 51, 52, la rangée 51 étant tangente aux magasins 20 et 30. Each container, or assembly 31, leaves the installation via the stacker crane 50 which circulates between two rows 51, 52, the row 51 being tangent to the stores 20 and 30.

Dans la figure 2, le magasin de départ a un diamètre égal à environ la moitié de celui du magasin d'arrivée et il comporte cinq conteneurs 32. Dans cette figure, chaque conteneur 32 est en fait constitué de deux demi-conteneurs. Le nombre impair de conteneurs de départ permet de rapprocher entre eux un conteneur d'arrivée et un conteneur de départ, afin que l'opérateur accomplisse une rotation d'un angle minimum, tout en maintenant un conteneur parallèle à la rangée 51 afin d'assurer sa sortie. La rangée 51 est également tangente aux magasins 20 et 30. In FIG. 2, the departure store has a diameter equal to approximately half that of the arrival store and it comprises five containers 32. In this figure, each container 32 is in fact made up of two half-containers. The odd number of departure containers makes it possible to bring together an arrival container and a departure container, so that the operator performs a rotation by a minimum angle, while keeping a container parallel to row 51 in order to ensure his exit. Row 51 is also tangent to stores 20 and 30.

Dans la figure 3, l'installation comporte un magasin d'arrivée supplémentaire 40 alimenté en conteneurs 41 par le transtockeur 50. Ce magasin comporte douze conteneurs, ce qui permet de doubler la capacité des conteneurs mis à la disposition de l'opérateur. In FIG. 3, the installation comprises an additional arrival magazine 40 supplied with containers 41 by the stacker crane 50. This magazine has twelve containers, which makes it possible to double the capacity of the containers made available to the operator.

Ces deux magasins d'arrivée sont installés de part et d'autre du magasin de départ, et l'installation comporte alors un deuxième poste de travail 17 installé entre ce deuxième magasin d'arrivée et le magasin de départ. These two arrival stores are installed on either side of the departure store, and the installation then comprises a second work station 17 installed between this second arrival store and the departure store.

L'opérateur passe du poste 10 au poste 77 quand le magasin 20 est vide, et inversement. Le temps de passage d'un poste à l'autre est tout à fait négligeable car ce déplacement n'a lieu que lorsque les douze conteneurs sont vides. The operator goes from station 10 to station 77 when the magazine 20 is empty, and vice versa. The passage time from one station to another is completely negligible because this movement takes place only when the twelve containers are empty.

Dans cette figure, la rangée 51 est sécante aux trois magasins 20, 30 et 40, ce qui permet d'avoir un transtockeur à fourche simple profondeur, contraitement aux rangées des figures 1 et 2 qui obligent la mise en place d'un transtockeur à fourche double profondeur. In this figure, the row 51 is intersecting at the three stores 20, 30 and 40, which makes it possible to have a stacker crane with a single depth fork, contrary to the rows of FIGS. 1 and 2 which require the placement of a stacker crane at double depth fork.

Dans la figure 4, les magasins d'arrivée 20 et 40 sont alimentés par un transtockeur 60 circulant entre deux rangées 61 et 62, la rangée 61 étant sécante aux deux magasins 20, 40. Le magasin de départ 30 est vidé sur un convoyeur 70. In FIG. 4, the arrival magazines 20 and 40 are fed by a stacker crane 60 circulating between two rows 61 and 62, the row 61 intersecting the two magazines 20, 40. The departure magazine 30 is emptied on a conveyor 70 .

Afin d'améliorer encore le caractère ergonomique du ou des postes de travail, les conteneurs peuvent être inclinés vers l'opérateur par une rampe ou par un dispositif ne nécessitant pas de moyens mécaniques complexes.  In order to further improve the ergonomic nature of the workstation (s), the containers can be tilted towards the operator by a ramp or by a device that does not require complex mechanical means.
