Description

本発明は、物品を水平方向に沿う移載方向に移動させて物品を移載対象箇所と自己との間で移載する移載装置と、複数の前記移載対象箇所の夫々に対応する位置に前記移載装置を移動させる移動装置と、を備えている物品搬送設備に関する。 The present invention provides a transfer device that moves an article in a transfer direction along the horizontal direction to transfer the article between the transfer target location and itself, and a position corresponding to each of the plurality of transfer target locations. And a moving device for moving the transfer device.

かかる物品搬送設備の従来例が、特開平５−９７２０９号公報（特許文献１）に記載されている。特許文献１の物品搬送設備では、移載対象箇所に、物品を回転自在に支持する第１のパレット支持ローラが備えられ、移載装置に、物品を回転自在に支持する第２のパレット支持ローラが備えられている。このように、移載対象箇所及び移載装置に、移載する物品を支持するパレット支持ローラを備えて、移載対象箇所と移載装置との間で物品を移載するときにパレット支持ローラにて支持することで、物品を円滑に移載できるようになっている。 A conventional example of such an article conveyance facility is described in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 5-97209 (Patent Document 1). In the article transport facility of Patent Document 1, a first pallet support roller that rotatably supports an article is provided at a transfer target location, and a second pallet support roller that rotatably supports the article is provided in the transfer device. Is provided. Thus, the pallet support roller includes a pallet support roller that supports the article to be transferred in the transfer target location and the transfer device, and when the article is transferred between the transfer target location and the transfer device. By supporting with, the article can be transferred smoothly.

そして、特許文献２に記載されているように、移載対象箇所に、移載装置にて移載される物品を滑動自在に支持する支持部材を設ける場合もあり、パレット支持ローラに代えて比較的構造が簡素な支持部材を移載対象箇所に設けることで、製造コストを抑えることができる。 Further, as described in Patent Document 2, a support member that slidably supports an article to be transferred by the transfer device may be provided at a transfer target portion, and the comparison is performed in place of the pallet support roller. The manufacturing cost can be suppressed by providing the support member having a simple structure at the location to be transferred.

特開平５−９７２０９号公報JP-A-5-97209 実開昭６２−１１４６２号公報Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 62-11462

移載対象箇所についてのみパレット支持ローラを支持部材に代えると、移載対象箇所では物品をパレット支持ローラに支持するのに対して、移載装置では物品を支持部材にて支持することになるため、移載対象箇所において物品を移載方向に移動させるために必要な操作力と、移載装置上において物品を移載方向に移動させるために必要な操作力とが大きく異なる。このように操作力が大きく異なると、移載対象箇所と移載装置との間で物品を安定よく移載し難い。そのため、移載対象箇所において物品を移載方向に移動させるために必要な操作力と、移載装置上において物品を移載方向に移動させるために必要な操作力とを揃えるために、移載装置に備えたパレット支持ローラも、移載対象箇所と同様の支持部材に代えることが考えられる。 If the pallet support roller is replaced with a support member only for the transfer target portion, the article is supported by the pallet support roller at the transfer target portion, whereas the article is supported by the support member in the transfer device. The operation force required to move the article in the transfer direction at the transfer target location is greatly different from the operation force required to move the article in the transfer direction on the transfer device. When the operating force is greatly different in this way, it is difficult to stably transfer the article between the transfer target portion and the transfer device. Therefore, in order to align the operation force required to move the article in the transfer direction at the transfer target location and the operation force required to move the article in the transfer direction on the transfer device, transfer is performed. The pallet support roller provided in the apparatus may be replaced with a support member similar to the transfer target portion.

しかしながら、移載対象箇所と移載装置との双方に、物品を滑動自在に支持する支持部材を備えた場合、次のような問題が生じる。
つまり、移載装置は、多数の移載対象箇所との間で物品を移載するため、移載装置の支持部材上を物品が滑動する回数は、移載対象箇所の支持部材上を物品が滑動する回数より多くなる。そのため、支持部材として耐摩耗性の低い比較的安価な樹脂材を用いると、移載装置に備えた支持部材を交換する頻度が高く、支持部材を交換するメンテナンス作業が煩わしいものとなり、また、支持部材は、移載対象箇所の数に応じた数量が必要となるため、支持部材として耐摩耗性が高い比較的高価な樹脂材を用いると、設備の製造コストが高くなる。 However, when both the transfer target location and the transfer device are provided with support members that slidably support the article, the following problems occur.
That is, since the transfer device transfers the article to and from a large number of transfer target locations, the number of times the article slides on the support member of the transfer device is determined by the number of times the article is moved on the support member of the transfer target location. More than the number of times to slide. Therefore, if a relatively inexpensive resin material with low wear resistance is used as the support member, the support member provided in the transfer device is frequently replaced, and the maintenance work for replacing the support member becomes troublesome. Since the number of members according to the number of places to be transferred is required, the use of a relatively expensive resin material with high wear resistance as the support member increases the manufacturing cost of the equipment.

そこで、メンテナンス作業の回数を抑えながら製造コストを抑えることができる物品搬送設備が求められる。 Accordingly, there is a need for an article transport facility that can reduce manufacturing costs while reducing the number of maintenance operations.

本発明に係る物品搬送設備の特徴構成は、物品を水平方向に沿う移載方向に移動させて物品を移載対象箇所と自己との間で移載する移載装置と、複数の前記移載対象箇所の夫々に対応する位置に前記移載装置を移動させる移動装置と、を備えている物品搬送設備において、
前記移載対象箇所に、前記移載装置にて移載される物品を滑動自在に支持する第１支持部材が備えられ、前記移載装置に、当該移載装置にて移載される物品を滑動自在に支持する第２支持部材が備えられ、前記第１支持部材及び前記第２支持部材の夫々が樹脂材にて構成され、前記第２支持部材が、前記第１支持部材に比べて耐摩耗性が高い樹脂材にて構成され、前記第１支持部材が、前記移載対象箇所に前記移載方向に沿って互いに間隔を空けた状態で複数設けられ、前記第２支持部材が、前記移載装置に前記移載方向に沿って互いに間隔を空けた状態で複数設けられ、前記第１支持部材の上部が、先細り形状で上方に突出する形状に形成され、前記第２支持部材の上面が、水平な平坦面とされている点にある。 The characteristic configuration of the article transport facility according to the present invention includes a transfer device that moves an article in a transfer direction along a horizontal direction to transfer the article between a transfer target location and itself, and a plurality of the transfer In an article transport facility comprising a moving device that moves the transfer device to a position corresponding to each of the target locations,
A first support member that slidably supports an article to be transferred by the transfer device is provided at the transfer target portion, and an article to be transferred by the transfer device is provided on the transfer device. A second support member that is slidably supported is provided, each of the first support member and the second support member is made of a resin material, and the second support member is more resistant to resistance than the first support member. It is composed of a highly wearable resin material , and a plurality of the first support members are provided in the transfer target portion in a state of being spaced apart from each other along the transfer direction, and the second support member is A plurality of transfer devices are provided in the transfer direction in a state of being spaced apart from each other, and an upper portion of the first support member is formed in a tapered shape protruding upward, and an upper surface of the second support member Is a horizontal flat surface .

この特徴構成によれば、移載対象箇所に、物品を滑動自在に支持する第１支持部材が備えられ、移載装置に、物品を滑動自在に支持する第２支持部材が備えられているため、移載対象箇所や移載装置に、物品を回転自在に支持する支持ローラを設ける場合に比べて製造コストを抑えることができる。 According to this characteristic configuration, the transfer target portion includes the first support member that slidably supports the article, and the transfer device includes the second support member that slidably supports the article. The manufacturing cost can be reduced as compared with a case where a support roller for rotatably supporting an article is provided at a transfer target location or a transfer device.

第２支持部材は、第１支持部材に比べて耐摩耗性が高い樹脂材にて構成することで、第２支持部材が摩耗し難くなり第２支持部材を交換する頻度を抑えられる。そして、このような耐摩耗性が高い第２支持部材を、使用頻度が高い移載装置に備える支持部材として用いることで、移載装置における支持部材の交換頻度を下げることができ、もって、メンテナンス作業を行う回数を抑えることができる。
また、第１支持部材は、第２支持部材に比べて耐摩耗性が低い樹脂材にて構成することで、第２支持部材と同じ樹脂材にて構成した場合に比べて安価に構成できる。そして、このような安価な第１支持部材を、多数存在する移載対象箇所に備える支持部材として用いることで、物品搬送設備の製造コストを抑えることができる。 By configuring the second support member with a resin material having higher wear resistance than the first support member, the second support member is less likely to be worn, and the frequency of replacing the second support member can be suppressed. And, by using such a second support member with high wear resistance as a support member provided in a transfer device having a high frequency of use, the replacement frequency of the support member in the transfer device can be reduced, and maintenance can be performed. The number of operations can be reduced.
In addition, the first support member can be configured at a lower cost than the case where the first support member is formed of the same resin material as that of the second support member by being formed of a resin material having lower wear resistance than the second support member. And the manufacturing cost of article conveyance equipment can be held down by using such an inexpensive 1st support member as a support member with which many transfer object places exist.

また、この構成によれば、第１支持部材及び第２支持部材は、移載方向に沿って互いに間隔を空けた状態で複数設けられているため、これら第１支持部材や第２支持部材を移載方向に沿う長尺状に形成した単一の支持部材にて構成した場合に比べて、支持部材が小型となり支持部材を設置し易くなるとともに支持部材の製造コストを抑えることができる。 Further , according to this configuration, since the first support member and the second support member are provided in a plurality with a space between each other along the transfer direction, the first support member and the second support member are provided. Compared with the case where it is configured by a single support member formed in a long shape along the transfer direction, the support member becomes smaller and it is easy to install the support member, and the manufacturing cost of the support member can be suppressed.

また、この構成によれば、第１支持部材の上部が、先細り形状で上方に突出する形状に形成されているため、第１支持部材の上端が摩耗によって低くなって物品の支持高さが変わり易い。そのため、移載対象箇所に設けられた複数の第１支持部材の高さに設置誤差があった場合でも、設置高さが高い第１支持部材が摩耗して低くなることで、移載対象箇所に設けられた複数の第１支持部材の高さのばらつきの解消を図ることができる。
また、第２支持部材の上面が、水平な平坦面とされているため、物品を支持する面積が広く単位面積当たりの荷重を下げることができるため、第２支持部材が摩耗し難くできる。そのため、移載装置に設けられた複数の第２支持部材を適切な高さに設置することで、その適切な高さを長期にわたって維持することができる。 Further , according to this configuration, since the upper portion of the first support member is tapered and protrudes upward, the upper end of the first support member is lowered due to wear, and the support height of the article changes. easy. Therefore, even when there is an installation error in the heights of the plurality of first support members provided at the transfer target location, the transfer target location can be reduced by the wear of the first support member having a high installation height. The variation in the height of the plurality of first support members provided in can be eliminated.
In addition, since the upper surface of the second support member is a horizontal flat surface , the area for supporting the article is large and the load per unit area can be reduced, so that the second support member can be hardly worn. Therefore, the appropriate height can be maintained over a long period of time by installing the plurality of second support members provided in the transfer device at an appropriate height.

It is in.

この特徴構成によれば、移載対象箇所に、物品を滑動自在に支持する第１支持部材が備えられ、移載装置に、物品を滑動自在に支持する第２支持部材が備えられているため、移載対象箇所や移載装置に、物品を回転自在に支持する支持ローラを設ける場合に比べて製造コストを抑えることができる。

また、この構成によれば、第１支持部材及び第２支持部材は、移載方向に沿って互いに間隔を空けた状態で複数設けられているため、これら第１支持部材や第２支持部材を移載方向に沿う長尺状に形成した単一の支持部材にて構成した場合に比べて、支持部材が小型となり支持部材を設置し易くなるとともに支持部材の製造コストを抑えることができる。
また、この構成によれば、第２支持部材の夫々が、第１支持部材に比べて移載方向に長く形成されているため、移載装置において複数の第２支持部材にて物品を支持する面積を広くできるため、単位面積当たりの荷重を下げることができる。そのため、第２支持部材が摩耗し難くなり、第２支持部材を交換する頻度を抑えることができる。 According to this characteristic configuration, the transfer target portion includes the first support member that slidably supports the article, and the transfer device includes the second support member that slidably supports the article. The manufacturing cost can be reduced as compared with a case where a support roller for rotatably supporting an article is provided at a transfer target location or a transfer device.
By configuring the second support member with a resin material having higher wear resistance than the first support member, the second support member is less likely to be worn, and the frequency of replacing the second support member can be suppressed. And, by using such a second support member with high wear resistance as a support member provided in a transfer device having a high frequency of use, the replacement frequency of the support member in the transfer device can be reduced, and maintenance can be performed. The number of operations can be reduced.
In addition, the first support member can be configured at a lower cost than the case where the first support member is formed of the same resin material as that of the second support member by being formed of a resin material having lower wear resistance than the second support member. And the manufacturing cost of article conveyance equipment can be held down by using such an inexpensive 1st support member as a support member with which many transfer object places exist.
Further, according to this configuration, since the first support member and the second support member are provided in a plurality with a space between each other along the transfer direction, the first support member and the second support member are provided. Compared with the case where it is configured by a single support member formed in a long shape along the transfer direction, the support member becomes smaller and it is easy to install the support member, and the manufacturing cost of the support member can be suppressed.
Further, according to this configuration, since each of the second support members is formed longer in the transfer direction than the first support member, the transfer device supports the article with the plurality of second support members. Since the area can be increased, the load per unit area can be reduced. Therefore, the second support member is less likely to be worn, and the frequency of replacing the second support member can be suppressed.

また、前記移載対象箇所に、前記移載装置にて移載される物品の側面に接触して当該物品を前記移載方向に案内する案内部材が前記移載方向に複数並べられ、前記第１支持部材が、前記移載対象箇所に位置する物品における前記移載方向で前記移載装置が存在する一方側の第１部分の下方とその反対側の第２部分の下方とに設けられ、前記案内部材が、前記移載対象箇所に位置する物品における前記第１部分と前記第２部分とのうちの前記一方側の部分に対応する横側方にのみ設けられていると好適である。 In addition, a plurality of guide members that contact the side surface of the article to be transferred by the transfer device and guide the article in the transfer direction are arranged in the transfer direction at the transfer target location, 1 support member is provided below the first part on one side where the transfer device exists in the transfer direction in the article located at the transfer target location and below the second part on the opposite side, It is preferable that the guide member is provided only on a lateral side corresponding to the one side portion of the first portion and the second portion in the article located at the transfer target location.

この構成によれば、第１支持部材は、移載対象箇所に位置する物品における第１部分の下方と第２部分の下方とに設けられているため、移載方向の両側において物品を支持できるので、物品を適切に支持できる。
また、案内部材は、移載対象箇所に位置する物品における一方側の部分と他方側の部分とのうちの一方側の部分に対応する横側方にのみ設けられている。そのため、移載装置から移載対象箇所に物品を移載するときにおいて、移載対象箇所に移載されるときに物品の先端が案内部材にて案内されることで、物品を移載方向に案内しながら適切な姿勢に修正できる。そして、物品の全体が移載対象箇所への移動が完了する間際では、物品の姿勢は適切な姿勢となっているため、案内部材がなくても適正な姿勢を維持したまま移載対象箇所への移動を完了させることができる。
案内部材を、前記移載対象箇所に位置する物品における他方側の部分に対応する横側方に設けないことで、製造コストを抑えることができる。 According to this configuration, since the first support member is provided below the first portion and below the second portion in the article located at the transfer target location, the article can be supported on both sides in the transfer direction. Therefore, the article can be properly supported.
Further, the guide member is provided only on the lateral side corresponding to the one side portion of the one side portion and the other side portion of the article located at the transfer target location. Therefore, when the article is transferred from the transfer device to the transfer target location, the tip of the article is guided by the guide member when transferred to the transfer target location, so that the article is moved in the transfer direction. It can be corrected to an appropriate posture while guiding. And, as soon as the movement of the entire article to the transfer target location is completed, the posture of the article is an appropriate posture, so even if there is no guide member, the proper posture is maintained and the transfer target location is maintained. Movement can be completed.
By not providing the guide member on the lateral side corresponding to the other side portion of the article located at the transfer target location, the manufacturing cost can be suppressed.

There is provided a lifting platform 13 which is guided by the mast 11 so as to be movable up and down and which moves up and down along the vertical direction by driving a lifting motor 12 (see FIG. 11). The elevator 13 is equipped with a transfer device 14 that moves the article W in the transfer direction Y along the horizontal direction and transfers the article W between the storage unit 1 and the loading / unloading unit and itself.

そして、スタッカークレーン３は、走行用モータ９の駆動による走行台車１０の走行移動と昇降用モータ１２の駆動による昇降台１３の昇降移動とにより、移載装置１４を移載対象の収納部１（移載対象箇所）に対応する位置に移動させるべく、走行用モータ９及び昇降用モータ１２の作動を制御装置Ｈにより制御するように構成されている。走行用モータ９及び昇降用モータ１２が、複数の収納部１の夫々に対応する位置に移載装置１４を移動させる移動装置に相当する。 The stacker crane 3 moves the transfer device 14 to the storage unit 1 (to be transferred) by the traveling movement of the traveling carriage 10 driven by the traveling motor 9 and the lifting movement of the lifting platform 13 driven by the lifting motor 12. The operation of the traveling motor 9 and the lifting motor 12 is controlled by the control device H so as to move to a position corresponding to the transfer target location. The traveling motor 9 and the lifting motor 12 correspond to a moving device that moves the transfer device 14 to a position corresponding to each of the plurality of storage units 1.

図４に示すように、移載装置１４は、移載用第１モータ１６（図１１参照）の駆動により昇降台１３に対して移載方向Ｙに移動し且つ係脱用モータ１７（図１１参照）の駆動により昇降台１３に対して昇降移動する移動部１８と、移動部１８に支持されて移載用第２モータ１９（図１１参照）の駆動により移動部１８に対して移載方向Ｙに移動する係合部２０と、移載する物品Ｗを移載方向Ｙに摺動自在に支持する移載側支持体２１と、移載方向Ｙに移動する物品Ｗに接触して当該物品Ｗを移載方向Ｙに案内する移載側案内体２２と、を備えて構成されている。係合部２０は、角ばったＵ字状に形成されており、上下方向移動することで物品Ｗの被係合部５ａに対して係脱する形状に形成されている。尚、物品Ｗの被係合部５ａは、物品Ｗにおける移載方向Ｙで端部に位置する横枠材にて構成されている。 As shown in FIG. 4, the transfer device 14 is moved in the transfer direction Y with respect to the lift 13 by driving the transfer first motor 16 (see FIG. 11), and the engagement / disengagement motor 17 (FIG. 11). The moving part 18 that moves up and down with respect to the elevator 13 by driving (see FIG. 11), and the transfer direction with respect to the moving part 18 that is supported by the moving part 18 and driven by the second motor 19 for transfer (see FIG. 11).
