Description

Product Transfer System {CARRING SYSTEM FOR PRODUCTS}

The present invention relates to a product transfer system that is part of a factory automation facility. More specifically, the present invention relates to a system capable of transferring pallets or crates loaded with goods, as well as paper boxes containing liquid products such as milk and yogurt. The present invention relates to a paper box on which goods are loaded, a shipping conveyor on which a crates or pallets are loaded, a paper box, a crates or pallets to be transported from the shipping conveyor, and a shuttle car for simultaneously switching the transport direction, and the paper box from the shuttle car. After receiving the crates or pallets, the paper box, the crates or pallets are made to include a boom car to be loaded into the truck.

In the present invention, the product transport system is a configuration of the devices used in the process of loading the packaged product in a paper box, crates or pallets up to the delivery truck, the packaged product is packaged on a small scale in dairy products containing various types of paper It can be a product that can be contained in a box or crate.

In addition to the rapid industrialization, the factory automation facility efficiently and organically combines all production activities ranging from automatic design of products, automatic control of production processes, management of production facilities, detection and repair of failures, quality inspection and shipment processes. It has been developed as a facility and has been applied to most production plants and warehouses.

In particular, in the shipping process, the factory automation facility automatically handles everything that has been done by human resources. It works to improve the productivity and minimize the human intervention, so that a certain amount of goods can be shipped in a short time.

In the conventional goods delivery process, the factory automation facility includes a robot for carrying out a plurality of goods shipment conveyors each for transporting a plurality of goods shipped from the production process, and mixing and placing the necessary goods from a plurality of goods conveyors for each product in a predetermined place as necessary. Induce a change of direction of the product so that the robot transports the mixed goods, the delivery conveyor for transporting the mixed goods from the transport vehicle, take the goods from the delivery conveyor and load the goods into the delivery truck It is made up of a shuttle car and a boom car that loads the goods in a predetermined delivery vehicle after receiving the goods from the shuttle car.

The goods shipped in the goods shipment process are shipped in paper boxes or crates, and the robot or worker places the paper boxes or crates containing the goods on the floor or pallets. At this time, the stacking operation is carried up by stacking a paper box or crates over a plurality of stages, and in some cases, a stack of paper boxes or crates containing a desired product may be stacked.

The truck carries a paper box or crates containing the goods, and a pallet containing the paper box or crates to the delivery conveyor. The truck is a simple transportation of a paper box or crates loaded with pallets loaded with paper boxes or crates to a delivery conveyor. The monorail, stacker, automatic guided vehicle (AGV), rail guided vehicle (RGV), and fork- lift).

The paper box or crates transported from the delivery conveyor and the pallet on which the paper box or crates are loaded are redirected by a shuttle car. The shuttle car delivers a predetermined number of paper boxes or crates, and pallets loaded with paper boxes or crates, and at the same time a large amount of paper boxes or crates, and paper boxes or crates, which are accommodated. The boom car is loaded with a plurality of paper boxes or crates, and paper boxes or crates sequentially in the delivery truck.

However, the shipment conveyor or delivery conveyor used in the above-described conventional product shipment process cannot physically use a paper box, a crate, and a pallet.

In other words, when loading and transporting a paper box containing goods 8 steps, loading and transporting a crate containing goods 8 times, and conveying pallets, the shipping conveyor or delivery conveyor used must have a different structure. Since the paper boxes, crates and pallets on which the goods are loaded differ in their structure and the forces applied to the shipping conveyors or delivery conveyors under different loads, the shipping conveyors or delivery conveyors should be distinguished for use for paper boxes, crates and pallets. .

For example, if a paper box containing goods is transported on a crate or pallet conveyor, the paper box load will cause the conveyor to be subjected to considerable force, which may cause the paper box to deform or become stuck between the conveyor belt rollers. The problem that the rotation of the roller stops occurs. In addition, there is a fear that the multi-stage paper box may collapse due to the deformation of the paper box.

On the contrary, when the crates or pallets are transported on a paper box conveyor, the conveyor belt tension is not able to withstand the crates or pallets because the conveyor is designed to transport the paper boxes. Because of the narrow formation, more rolls are required, resulting in unnecessary costs in terms of conveyor facilities.

In addition, the shuttle car or boom car used in the conventional product shipment process can not be used together with the paper box, crate and pallet for the same reasons as the shipping conveyor or delivery conveyor.

It is a first object of the present invention to provide a product transport system capable of transporting paper boxes, crates, or pallets.

That is, when the third motor 23b is driven, the belt 23c may be driven so that a paper box, a crate or a pallet mounted on the belt 23c may be loaded into the delivery truck 301.

1A to 1C, the operation of the goods transport system according to the present invention will be described.

First, the delivery conveyor 201 receives a paper box, crates or pallets mixed and stacked from the transport vehicle 103. The paper box, crate or pallet may be a product that can be contained in a paper box or crate in a small package in dairy products including a variety of milk. The delivery conveyor 201 transfers the paper box, crates or pallets to the shuttle car 202 and may use other delivery conveyors that can be used according to the distance to the shuttle car 202. The belt of the delivery conveyor 201 preferably has a predetermined tension, and in some cases, there may be a vertical flow of a paper box, a crate, or a pallet.

The shuttle car 202 receives a paper box, a crate or a pallet from the delivery conveyor 201 and delivers to the boom car 203. The shuttle car 202 drives the shuttle conveyor 202c to accommodate a paper box, a crate or a pallet and move using the driving unit 202a in the direction of the boom car 203. The shuttle car 202 faces the boom car 203 and stops, and pushes the paper box, crate or pallet to the boom car 203 using the pusher 202d. The shuttle car 202 transfers all of the paper boxes, crates or pallets to the boom car 203 and moves in the direction of the delivery conveyor 201 again. In the shuttle car 202, the pusher part 202d is a pusher 22d that pushes the paper box, crate or pallet toward the boom car 203 as described above, and a chain for transmitting power to the pusher 22d ( 22e) and the sprocket 22f which rotates the said chain, and the 2nd motor 22g, the chain 22 fastened to the sprocket 22f by the drive of the 2nd motor 22g is moved, and is pusher. 22d pushes the paper box, crate or pallet.

The boom car 203 loads the paper box, crates or pallets on the delivery truck 301. The boom car 203 moves the vertical moving part 203c up and down according to the height of the delivery vehicle 301 and moves the horizontal moving part 203d toward the delivery vehicle 301 when it is adjusted to the height of the delivery vehicle 301. The paper box, crates or pallets are loaded. The horizontal support portion 203a of the boom car 203 is composed of a roller 23a so that the paper box, the crate or the pallet naturally slides down to the delivery truck 301.

Optionally, the horizontal support portion 203a of the boom car 203 is provided with a third motor 23b and a boom car belt 23c for driving the roller 23a, and a paper box, crates or pallets mounted on the boom car belt 23c. May be loaded onto the delivery vehicle 301 at the same time as the driving of the third motor 23b.
