本発明は、生産工場あるいは、配送センタなどにおいて
、物品の入出庫頻度の高い場合に好適な、物品保管装置
に関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Application of the Invention] The present invention relates to an article storage device suitable for use in production plants, distribution centers, etc., where articles are frequently received and taken out.
生産工場あるいは配送センタなどにおいて、計算機によ
って制御される自動入出庫機能を備えた保管庫が用いら
れる。このような保管庫としては、(1)物品の入出庫
作業の高速化、(2)物品保管庫の設置面積の縮小、を
実現することを狙った、ループ状の保管棚を設け、更に
それらを多段にしているものが市販されている。BACKGROUND ART In production factories, distribution centers, etc., storage warehouses that are controlled by computers and are equipped with an automatic storage/unloading function are used. This kind of storage is equipped with loop-shaped storage shelves that aim to (1) speed up the loading and unloading of goods, and (2) reduce the footprint of the goods storage. There are products on the market that have multiple stages.
この保管庫における物品の出庫は、次の手順で行なわれ
る。The removal of goods from this storage is performed in the following steps.
(1)出庫要求されている物品を、その物品が保管され
ている段の出庫口まで、ループ保管棚を旋回させ、移動
させる。(1) The loop storage shelf is rotated to move the item requested to be delivered to the exit of the shelf where the item is stored.
(2)各段の出庫口にそって走行するように設置されて
いる出庫用の昇降機(次工程への運搬用コンベアとの接
続装置)を、要求物品が保管されている段の出庫口まで
移動させる。(2) Move the unloading elevator (connection device to the conveyor for transportation to the next process) installed so that it runs along the exit of each tier to the exit of the tier where the requested item is stored. move it.
(3)昇降機に要求物品を載せる。(3) Place the requested item on the elevator.
(4)昇降機を利用して、次工程への運搬用コンベアま
で、要求物品を運ぶ。(4) Use the elevator to transport the requested items to the conveyor for transport to the next process.
ここで、入庫用、出庫用の昇降機は、別々に設ける場合
と兼用する場合とがある。以下では、昇降機は、入庫、
出庫用に別々に設けるとして説明する。従って、入庫口
、出庫口も別々にあることになる。以下の議論は、入出
庫兼用の昇降機を設ける場合にも同様に成り立つ。Here, the elevators for entering and exiting the warehouse may be provided separately or may be used in combination. In the following, the elevator is entered,
The explanation will be given assuming that it is provided separately for shipping. Therefore, there will be separate entry and exit entrances. The following discussion holds true even when an elevator is provided for both loading and unloading.
以上、述べたような手順による物品保管装置においては
、通常、ループ状保管棚の旋回速度は昇降機の移動速度
に比べ、低速である場合が多い。In the article storage apparatus according to the procedure described above, the rotation speed of the loop-shaped storage shelf is usually lower than the moving speed of the elevator in many cases.
そのため、出庫時には、出庫口に物品が到着するまで、
昇降機がそこに待たされてしまうことが生じる。また、
入庫時の場合にも同様に、物品の保管場所が入庫口に到
着するまで、昇降機は待たされてしまう。このような問
題を解決するために、従来の物品保管装置では、次のよ
うな対策が実施されている。Therefore, when leaving the warehouse, until the goods arrive at the exit gate,
The elevator may have to wait there. Also,
Similarly, when entering a warehouse, the elevator is forced to wait until the storage location of the article arrives at the warehouse entrance. In order to solve such problems, the following measures have been taken in conventional article storage devices.
(1)出庫口への物品の到着所要時間を短縮するために
、出庫口を複数個設ける。(1) In order to shorten the time required for goods to arrive at the exit, multiple exits will be provided.
(2)ループ状保管棚を各段ごとに独立に旋回させ、出
庫物品を保管場所から出庫口まで、事前に移動させてお
く。(2) The loop-shaped storage shelves are rotated independently for each stage, and the goods to be shipped are moved in advance from the storage location to the exit.
しかし、上記(1) (2)の対策には、それぞれ次の
ような短所がある。However, each of the measures (1) and (2) above has the following disadvantages.
(1)出庫口から物品を取り出す昇降機が、複数台必要
になるため、物品保管装置の価格が従来装置に比して高
い。(1) Since a plurality of elevators are required to take out articles from the exit, the price of the article storage device is higher than that of conventional devices.
(2)出庫口までの物品の移動に時間のかかる場合が多
い。なぜならば、保管庫から出庫する物品は、次の理由
により、出庫順に保管しておくことができないからであ
る。(2) It often takes time to move goods to the exit. This is because it is not possible to store items that are taken out of the warehouse in the order in which they are taken out of the warehouse for the following reason.
(a)物品が保管庫に入庫される時点に、それら物品の
出庫順序が決まっていない場合が多い。(a) In many cases, the order in which items are to be taken out of the warehouse is not determined at the time the items are placed in the warehouse.
(b)保管庫には、随時要求された物品が入庫するため
、出荷順序の最適化だけを考えた保管方法は困難である
。(b) Since requested items are stored in the storage warehouse at any time, it is difficult to develop a storage method that only optimizes the shipping order.
本発明の目的は、物品保管装置における′入出庫作業の
高速化′を狙った、物品保管装置を提供することにある
。SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide an article storage device that aims to speed up the loading and unloading operations in the article storage device.
従来の物品保管装置では、ループ状保管棚の外側に、入
出庫口1ケに対し、昇降機1台を設置し、物品の入出庫
を行なっていた。この装置によると、例えば、ループ状
保管棚の2ケ所に出庫口が設けられている場合には、最
悪でも1/4周、平均的には】78周、保管棚を旋回さ
せれば、物品が出庫口に到着することになる。この時、
出庫口の昇降機は計2台必要となる。In a conventional article storage device, one elevator is installed for one entry/exit entrance on the outside of a loop-shaped storage shelf, and articles are taken in and out of the warehouse. According to this device, for example, if a loop-shaped storage shelf has exit ports at two places, the storage shelf can be rotated 1/4 turn at worst, and 78 turns on average. will arrive at the exit. At this time,
A total of two elevators are required at the exit.
本発明では、昇降機台数を増さずに、上記の例と同等の
能力を確保するために、入出庫用の昇降機をループ状保
管棚のループ内に設けることを考案した。これにより、
1台の昇降機で複数箇所の入出庫口から物品の出し入れ
をすることを実現する。このような構成をとることによ
って、物品保管装置が安価となり、更に入出庫作業の高
速化をも実現することができる。In the present invention, in order to ensure the same capacity as in the above example without increasing the number of elevators, it was devised to provide elevators for loading and unloading within the loops of the loop-shaped storage shelves. This results in
To realize loading and unloading of articles from multiple entrances and exits using one elevator. By adopting such a configuration, the article storage device becomes inexpensive, and furthermore, it is possible to realize faster loading and unloading operations.
以下、実施例により、本発明の詳細な説明する。 Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to Examples.

Execute in parallel.
〈ステップ4〉
出庫物品押出し装置により、出庫物品を昇降機に載せる
。その際、出庫品管理テーブル(例えば第4図b)に、
出庫品が保管7.されていた位置情報等を登録する。<Step 4> The outgoing goods are placed on the elevator by the outgoing goods pushing out device. At that time, in the outgoing goods management table (for example, Fig. 4b),
Outgoing items are stored7. Register the location information etc.
くステップ5〉 昇降機により、出庫物品を下まで降ろす。Step 5> The elevator lowers the goods to be delivered to the bottom.
くステップ6〉
出庫物品押出し装置により、運搬コンベア上に出庫物品
を送り出す。Step 6> The outgoing goods are sent out onto the transport conveyor by the outgoing goods extrusion device.
以上のステップを出庫要求のなくなるまで繰り返す・ 〔発明の効果〕 本発明によれば1次の効果がある。Repeat the above steps until there are no more shipping requests. 〔Effect of the invention〕 According to the present invention, there is a first-order effect.
(1)入出庫用の昇降機が1台ですむため、安価な・物
品保管装置となる。(1) Since only one elevator is required for loading and unloading, it becomes an inexpensive article storage device.
(2)ループ状保管棚の複数箇所で、物品の入出庫を可
能としているため、入出庫作業が更に高速となる。例え

半周するのに要する時間)の、1/4n(平均)、最悪
でも1 / 2 nにすることができる。(2) Since articles can be loaded and unloaded at multiple locations on the loop-shaped storage shelf, loading and unloading work becomes faster. For example, if a loop-shaped storage shelf has n storage openings, the time required for the item requested to be delivered to arrive at the storage opening, or the time required for the storage location of the item to arrive at the storage opening. The time can be reduced to 1/4n (on average), or at worst 1/2n, of the time conventionally required (the time required for the loop-shaped storage shelf to make half a turn).
