Description

The utility model relates to the field of construction of buildings or structures, and can be used to store cars, containers or other goods on freight pallets in warehouses.

The main problems that have to be addressed in the design, construction and operation of multi-tier parking lots and warehouses are associated with limited territory.

Currently, several directions are known in the development of methods for parking cars and structures of mechanized, automated warehouses and parking lots, as well as their equipment, within which they are trying to solve these problems.

Known designs of multi-tier warehouses that differ in size, placement methods (above-ground, underground, floating, combined), methods of placing cars and other goods, transportation methods when delivering the cargo for storage and upon receipt, as well as using various types of energy to bring movement of the mechanisms of automated, mechanized warehouses and parking lots (DE 1684789 B2, 24/04/1975, Е04Н 6/22, ЕР 0339136 А1, 02.11 / 1989, У04Н 6/24, RU 2003600 С1, В65G 1/02; RU 2120528 C1 Е04Н 6/18). They have an original design, but require large manufacturing costs, show low productivity when moving a pallet with cargo to storage cells at rush hour.

The closest to the claimed utility model in terms of features is a floating structure (Patent of the Russian Federation 2174929, B63B 25/00, B63B 35/44, published on 10/20/2001 - prototype). The floating structure contains platforms for placing cars and bearing a closed loop, which is made in the form of two longitudinal rails located one below the other and two mechanical lifts installed at the ends of the longitudinal rails. This construction allows you to move cars in two - horizontal and vertical, large closed loops, which requires large time and energy costs, as well as design complexity, a long cycle of loading and unloading a car.

The objective of the proposed technical solution is to reduce the size and increase the capacity of the warehouse, reducing the duration of the cycle of loading and unloading cargo into the storage cell and vice versa, as well as providing the possibility of using simple mechanisms.

The task is achieved by the fact that in an automated multi-tier storage warehouse, including a supporting circuit, along the perimeter of which there are storage cells for goods or cars, a cargo pallet and a mechanism for moving the pallet into the cell and vice versa, the mechanism for fixing the pallet at the level of a given cell, a shaft with a lift for feeding goods to storage tiers and vice versa, which has a drive for moving the pallet horizontally on a tier, according to a utility model, each tier has one, two or more free of g cell load, the pallet movement mechanism is configured to arbitrarily transport goods in the plane of the tier between the individual cells and is equipped with computer-controlled movement control, as well as control over other mechanisms and the availability of free cells.

The automated warehouse has an original design, which makes it the most convenient to operate and install, saving space and time.

The technical result is to increase the storage space of cars or other goods with one operating lift on a smaller building area, simplifying the kinematics of moving cars or other goods.

The warehouse has a plan in the form of a rectangle, along the perimeter of which there are storage cells for cars, containers or other goods, a mechanism for moving a cargo pallet with cargo into and out of a storage cell, a mechanism for fixing the cargo pallet at the level of a given storage cell, a lift for lifting onto storage tiers and back, having a drive for moving the cargo pallet in a horizontal plane on the floor.

The method of cargo transportation includes installing a cargo pallet at the loading / unloading level of an automated warehouse, entering a car on a cargo pallet or unloading cargo on a cargo pallet, as well as subsequent vertical movement of the cargo pallet with cargo in a shaft with a lift to the tier level of a given storage cell and horizontal movement of the pallet with cargo from the lifting shaft to the storage cell and vice versa with the possibility of arbitrary transportation of goods in the plane of the tier between the individual cells.

Computer support manages the technological process, controls the malfunction of the mechanisms involved in the work, monitors the availability of free cells.

The utility model is illustrated by drawings, where figure 1 schematically depicts the proposed multi-tier warehouse, top view: 1 - bearing circuit; 2 - storage cells for goods (cars); 3 - cargo pallet; 4 - shaft with a lift. The mechanism for securing cargo, the mechanism for securing the pallet at the level of a given cell, computer software for controlling movement in figure 1 is not shown. Mine 4 with a hoist can be located both in an arbitrary part of the structure under consideration, and can be taken out of its limits.

The movement of freight pallets is carried out cyclically. Under each storage compartment 2 is a drive or other mechanism that allows you to both move the pallet in a horizontal plane and rotate it 90 °.

In the initial position, the cargo pallets are already in place. When the car (cargo) is handed over for storage, the lift drives up and picks up one of the empty cargo pallets, and descends behind the car. After the parking car enters the freight pallet, the car, together with the freight pallet, is moved by the lifting device vertically to the tier height of the specified storage compartment by the operator’s command, after which the freight pallet with the vehicle on it is moved to an empty, specially prepared storage compartment by means of a drive or other device . After completing the described operation of loading the car into one of the storage cells, the lifting device returns to its original position in anticipation of a new command from the operator. Unloading the car is carried out in the reverse order. Upon receipt of the car, the lift rises to the tier where the car is located, picks it up together with the cargo pallet, goes down, where the unloading takes place. Then the lift, together with the cargo pallet, rises to the tier where the car had stood before, and leaves there an empty cargo pallet.

Automatic warehouse operates as follows.

Example 1 (one cell on each tier of storage is free from the pallet). Consider the case when it is necessary to remove the cargo pallet with or without cargo from cell No. 2 (figure 2). The elevator rises to the tier where the cell in question is located. Moving on a given tier is carried out both clockwise and counterclockwise. Consider moving counterclockwise. To do this, we will move the cargo pallet from cell No. 1 to the cell of the mine, the cargo pallet from cell No. 2 to cell No. 1, the cargo pallet from cell No. 9 to cell No. 2, the cargo pallet located in the cell of the shaft lift to cell No. 9, then the desired us the cargo pallet, which is at the initial stage in cell No. 2, at this step in cell No. 1, we move it to the cell of the mine lift. Then the lift goes down to load / unload cargo. Similarly, loading / unloading occurs for the remaining storage cells. Possible movements of pallets are shown in figure 2.

Example 2 (two or more cells on each tier of storage free of pallets). The presence of two or more cells free of pallets on each tier allows preparatory movements of pallets prior to the entrance of the lift; the movement of pallets is carried out as in example 1.

Thus, the inventive automated multi-tier warehouse allows you to:

1. to place a warehouse on a building area with a minimum size of both open and closed type of aboveground and underground performance;

2. Assemble warehouse units in a single system, which helps to increase capacity; the number of storage locations can be different, depending on the requirements, operational characteristics and ranges from 3 to 9 or more storage locations on each tier per one lift;

3. reduce the duration of the cycle of loading and unloading a car or cargo in a storage cell and vice versa;

4. apply simple mechanisms for moving pallets with a car or cargo to storage cells.
