Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an automatic safe deposit box facility.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art An automatic safe deposit box facility has a shelving device capable of storing a large number of storage boxes (safe box cases), a booth for customers to put items in and out of the storage boxes, and a storage box between the booth and the hangar. Although it has a moving mechanism for moving, there is a unit in which these are surrounded by one cover plate to form a unit (for example, see Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 3-62875).

This unit type automatic safe deposit box facility is
Since there is no need to perform large-scale construction on the building, there is an advantage that it can be installed not only in banks but also in various places such as convenience stores, hotels, or the premises of stations. There is also an advantage that expansion is easy.

[0004]

As described above, the unit type automatic safe deposit box facility has an advantage of easy expansion, but conventionally, a new unit is simply installed in parallel with an existing unit and each unit is Was used independently.

By the way, it goes without saying that the unit type automatic safe deposit facility is additionally installed because the number of users of the existing unit is saturated or close to it. In such a state, The frequency of use of existing units is inevitably high.

On the other hand, since the newly installed unit has a small number of users, it is in a so-called idle state. Therefore, there is an imbalance that the new unit is idle while the users are lined up in the existing unit,
Not only can the ability of the automatic safe deposit facility as a whole not be effectively utilized, but there is also a risk of unfair waiting times between users of existing units and users of new units.

[0007] This imbalance in the frequency of use is gradually eliminated as the number of users of the newly installed unit increases, but even if the imbalance in the frequency of use is eliminated,
Not only is it troublesome for the customer to check each unit to be used by himself, but it is also possible that the user of a specific unit happens to stand in the line, so that the user is lined up only in a specific unit. There is a possibility that a state may occur, and in any case, it is undeniable that it lacks user friendliness.

The present invention was made on the basis of such dissatisfaction with the current situation, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a user-friendly automatic safe deposit box facility which has high flexibility to increase the number of users. To do.

[0009]

According to the invention of claim 1, the automatic safe deposit box facility comprises a plurality of storages arranged in parallel or in series in a plan view, and each storage has a large number of storages. A shelf device that can store the storage box and a transfer device that puts the storage box in and out of the storage device are respectively provided, and further, at least one hangar for the storage box that has been taken out of the shelf device and transported. A user (customer) is also provided with an operation unit for taking goods in and out. And
By connecting the transfer path of the storage boxes in each storage box by the transfer means, it is possible to transfer the storage boxes between a plurality of storage boxes and one operation unit.

According to the invention of claim 2, in claim 1,
A unit in which a booth for loading and unloading articles is integrally provided at one end of a hangar formed in a quadrangle in plan view is regarded as one unit, and a plurality of units are arranged in parallel so that the booths are located on the same side. Therefore, a transfer unit that can transfer the storage box to the storage box transport path of the adjacent unit is provided at an appropriate portion of each unit.

According to the invention of claim 3, in claim 1,
One unit has a booth for loading and unloading articles integrally provided at one end of a hangar formed in a quadrangle in a plan view, and two units are arranged in parallel so that the booths are located on the same side. Inside each hangar, there are provided a stacker crane in which a transfer table is attached to a horizontally traveling column, and shelving devices arranged on both sides of the traveling path of the stacker crane.

A transport mechanism for transferring the storage boxes to the stacker crane and the booth is installed at the end of the booth provided in both units, and the stacker crane is moved so that the transport mechanisms are back to back. The transfer units are arranged on one side across the path, and a transfer unit such as a conveyor that can transfer the storage box to each of the transfer devices is arranged between the transfer mechanisms of these units. The automatic safe deposit box facility according to claim 2.

The automatic safe deposit facility according to the invention of claim 4 is
A hangar group including a plurality of hangars, and one or a plurality of booths for a customer to put an article in and out of a storage box, and a shelving device capable of storing a large number of storage boxes in each hangar. , And a transfer device such as a stacker crane for loading and unloading the storage box to and from the shelving device, and each storage box and the booth can transfer the storage box stored in any storage box to any booth. As described above, they are connected by a transfer means with a sorting function.

[0014]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a case in which the operation section is provided in one of the plurality of hangars,
It includes three modes, that is, an operating section is provided for each hangar and a case where there are three or more hangars and a plurality of hangars are provided with operating sections, but not all of them.

In any case, the storage boxes stored in the plurality of storages can be moved to one or a plurality of operating sections. Therefore, in this mode, the state is the same as the case where the storage amount of the storage box is increased in one automatic safe deposit box facility, which is advantageous when the customer does not put in the storage box but the capacity is increased.

In the above aspect, since the storage boxes can be taken out from the separate storages to the plurality of operation sections, the customer can operate the storage box provided in a storage box different from the storage box in which the storage box that he borrows is stored. Parts can be used.

Therefore, it is possible to eliminate or reduce the waiting time of the user, and it is possible to eliminate or reduce the time and effort for confirming the operation unit one by one. As a result,
The convenience of the user can be significantly improved.

The structure of claim 2 is the aspect of claim 1, but since the unitized one is used, the cost can be suppressed by sharing the members.

By the way, in the automatic safe deposit box facility, in general,
Two pairs of shelving units are arranged inside the hangar so as to face each other, and a stacker crane travels in a passage between the two shelving units. The storage boxes taken out from the shelves by the stacker crane are transported to the end of the hangar near the booth, and then transported to the booth by another conveyor.

In that case, when the storage box is put in and taken out from the stacker crane, the storage box is in a direction orthogonal to the horizontal traveling direction of the stacker crane (that is, the depth direction of the shelf).
To move to, the conveyor is offset to the side of one shelf (in other words, the conveyor is located at the end of one shelf).

Further, when the configuration is as in claim 3, 2
Since the conveyors of the two units are back-to-back, transfer means can be provided without interfering with the stacker crane or reducing the storage capacity of the storage box, and the transfer distance of the storage box by the transfer means can be increased. Is smaller, the transfer rate can be increased.

Therefore, according to the invention of claim 3, it is particularly suitable for using the existing unit as it is.

The invention according to claim 4 is an automatic safe deposit box facility in which a booth is separated from a hangar group. In this case, since a transfer device is provided in each of a plurality of hangar cabinets, the automatic safe deposit box facility as a whole is stored. You can significantly increase the loading and unloading speed of the box.

The second unit 1 ′ having only the above is sandwiched between the two second units 1 and the storage function of the first unit 1 is shared.

In this case, it is more preferable to provide a transfer mechanism capable of transferring the storage boxes among the three units 1 because the customer can use any booth.

(7). Seventh Embodiment (FIG. 16) In the seventh embodiment shown in FIG. 16, the intermediate conveyor 22 is provided between the end conveyor 47 and the roller type horizontal swivel conveyor 5.
5 are arranged, and further, the transfer conveyor 23 is arranged between the adjacent horizontal swiveling conveyors 55. Swivel conveyor 55
The transfer conveyor 23 and the transfer conveyor 23 are arranged outside the shelf device 17. The up-and-down transfer conveyor 23 of the first embodiment and the horizontal swivel conveyor 55 of the present embodiment are examples of sorting means for transferring the storage boxes 11 to different storage shelves 2.

In this embodiment, since the storage box 11 can be moved between the arbitrary storage boxes 2 via the horizontal swivel type conveyor 55 and the transfer conveyor 23, even if three or more units 1 are arranged, it is optional. The storage box 11 can be called from the arbitrary hangar 2 to the booth 3 of the unit 1.

By the way, in this kind of automatic safe deposit box facility,
In order to prevent the storage box 11 from popping out of the shelf device 17, an all-lock device having a bar that is hooked to the locking portion 12 of each storage box 11 is arranged on the back side of the shelf device 17, and therefore, in plan view. If the transfer conveyor 23 is arranged at a position overlapping with the shelving device 17, the all-lock device and the transfer conveyor 23 may interfere with each other.

On the other hand, as in this embodiment,
When the transfer conveyor 23 is arranged outside the shelving device 17, there is an advantage that the conventional shelving device 17 can be used as it is because the all-lock device and the transfer conveyor 23 do not interfere with each other. In addition, the transfer conveyor 23 and the stacker crane 1
Since it does not interfere with the stacker crane 18, it is possible to arrange the transfer conveyor 23 so as to cross the passage of the stacker crane 18, and as a result, it is possible to connect three or more units 1 with a simple structure. it can.

(8). Eighth to Ninth Embodiments (FIGS. 17 to 18) In the eighth embodiment shown in FIG. 17, the horizontal swivel conveyor 5 is used.

According to this structure, even if the intermediate conveyor 22 and the end conveyor 48 are in close contact with each other, by raising or lowering the intermediate conveyor 22 or the like, the intermediate conveyor 22 or the like can be horizontally swung without interfering with the intermediate conveyor 22 or the like. There is an advantage that the box 11 can be delivered in a stable state.

(9). Tenth Embodiment (FIG. 19) FIG. 10 shows a tenth embodiment in which claim 4 is embodied. In this embodiment, a warehouse group in which a plurality of hangars 2 are installed side by side and a booth group in which a plurality of booths 3 are installed side by side are separated from each other, and each hangar 2 and each booth 3 are circulated. The main mechanism 57 and a branch conveyor 58 are connected by a transport mechanism.

The circulating conveyor 57 and the branch conveyor 58 are
A horizontal swivel conveyor 55, which is an example of a separating means, is opened and connected. The main conveyor is not limited to the circulation type, but may be a reciprocating type (however, the circulation type can improve the efficiency of loading and unloading the storage box).

(10). Others The present invention can be variously embodied in addition to the above-described embodiments. For example, various mechanisms can be adopted without being limited to the transport means of the storage box, the roller type conveyor, and the belt type conveyor (the storage box can be moved directly to the booth by the stacker crane).

Further, it cannot be denied that transferring a storage box between units requires a long transfer time.
For example, "A booth has priority use" or "both booths can be used, but booth A has shorter waiting time."
In this way, it is possible to display (list) the booth to be used preferentially, and encourage the customer to use the booth of another unit only when the customer is using it.

Further, when a new unit is installed in parallel with the existing unit, there is a large difference in storage density between the two units. It is also possible to transfer the units' contracted storage boxes to level the density of the contracted storage boxes. By providing the transfer means, such leveling becomes possible.

Furthermore, the booth does not necessarily have to be provided with a door, and it is possible to have a configuration in which only partitions are provided or only a table is provided.
