Description of the invention [Technical field to which the invention belongs] The present invention relates to a system for transporting goods by a trolley that moves along the traveling track when it is disposed in a loading / unloading space. [Prior Art] In recent years, when a cargo is to be transported to various rooms in a building such as a hospital, an unmanned transport system having excellent transport efficiency with respect to the transport of objects by personnel is used. As shown in FIG. 7, the unmanned transportation system refers to a system in which a load 51 is transported on a walking rail 52 that connects rooms in a building and is transported to each room in the building. In the handling system several carts 5 1. The trolley 51 is provided with a traveling control device used on the traveling rail 52 and a front traveling sensor. The front travelling sensor detects another vehicle 51 in front of the proceeding direction (G direction) of the vehicle 51, and the vehicle 51 collides with each other, and the control device is a controller for performing the travelling speed. Further, in this conveying system, in the room of the building, a fire is prevented from occurring during a fire, and the fire prevention 扉 53 is provided on the way of the walking track 52. The fire prevention Η53 is directed upward from the walking track 52 when a fire occurs. ) Descent while blocking the walking track 52. However, when the trolley fire 下方 5 3 is directly below, the trolley 51 becomes an obstacle and there is a comparison of the transport coefficient of the station used for the fire 扉. Comparing the cargo trolley with the goods, use a complex device to control the walking trolley to prevent the trolley 5 1 OK to prevent the center position. Downward (5 1 stops at 5 3 cannot be covered (2) 1228481 It is inconvenient to break the walking track 5 2. That is, for example, when a carriage 5 1 stops in the direction of the carriage 5 1 and stops behind the fire prevention cage 5 3 Then, the other trolleys 5 walking from the rear stop by the front carriage sensor 5 3 directly below the fire prevention 扉 5 3 so as not to collide with a car 5 1, and in this state, the fire prevention 扉 5 3 descends in the direction of Η At this time, it will collide with the trolley 5 1 and cannot block the walking track 5 2. In this way, it is known that the traveling track 52 before and after the fire prevention 扉 5 3 is provided with a detection trolley 5 1 Passed trolley sensor 54 φ '5 5. The trolley sensor 5 5 is arranged between the fire protection 扉 5 3 and the position where the trolley 51 can enter sufficiently far away. In addition, on the traveling track 52 'There is also a transmitter 5 6 which transmits a signal allowed to enter the section L confronted by the trolley sensors 5 4 and 5 5 to the trolley 5 1. Moreover, the trolley 51 is provided with a receiving trolley sensor. Receiver of the access permission signal transmitted by the transmitter 54. With the above configuration, only one can be entered in the interval L. Section control of the vehicle 51. That is, when the vehicle 51 is positioned in the section L by the vehicle sensor 54, the other vehicles 51 traveling from behind the vehicle 51 will not have the slave 5 6 sends an entry permission signal for section L. Therefore, the other trolley 51 becomes stopped outside the section L. After that, when the preceding trolley 5 passes the trolley sensor 5 5, the entry permission signal is sent from the transmitter 5 6 Sending to the trolley 51 makes the following trolley 51 enter into the section L. Therefore, the stop of the trolley 51 is prevented directly below the fire prevention 扉 53, so that the collision of the trolley 51 and the fire prevention 扉 53 can be prevented. However, in the conventional conveying system, in order to perform section control, two trolley sensors 5 4, 5 5 and a transmitter 5 6 are provided on the (3) · 1228481 traveling track, and the trolley 5 1 is also Since a receiver for receiving the access permission signal is provided, there is a problem that the cost of constructing the transportation system becomes high. In addition, in order for the trolley 51 to receive the signal of the transmitter 56, the trolley 51 must be slowed down, resulting in shortened cargo. Obstacles in carrying time. [Inside the invention [Content] The present invention was created in view of the above-mentioned matters, and an object thereof is to provide a transport system capable of preventing a collision between a fire-resistant maggot and a trolley while preventing the collision easily. In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the present invention is The following means are proposed. A first aspect of the present invention is a conveyance system, which includes a plurality of trolleys that are provided with a walking rail and can be moved along the walking rail, and is disposed in the midway position of the above walking rail to block walking during a fire The rail fire prevention shovel conveying system is characterized by comprising: the first detection means provided on the trolley and detecting the preceding trolley on the side of walking; the traveling track provided in the direction of the trolley; A detected member; and a second detection means provided on each of the carts to detect the detected member. According to the conveying system of the present invention, the second detection means provided in the trolley detects the detected member arranged on the traveling track, so that the trolley itself detects that the parking space is on the front side of the fire prevention ridge. In this state, when the first detection means provided in the trolley detects the preceding trolley, the trolley does not stop at the interrupted position of the walking track according to the fire prevention, and can be stopped. 6- (4) 1228481 Right front side. That is, the speed of the trolley can be controlled by the first and second detection and detection means provided on the trolley and the detected member provided on the traveling track. Therefore, it is not necessary to provide a control device for controlling the traveling track. In addition, since the speed of the trolley is controlled by the first and second detection means provided on the trolley, it is not necessary to slow down the trolley excessively. As a result, it is possible to shorten the transportation time of goods. Moreover, in the above-mentioned conveying system, the detected member is arranged in a plural number in the traveling direction of the trolley with an interval of φ, and the first detection means detects the preceding trolley in an area separated by the plurality of detected members. At this time, it is also possible to reduce the speed to stop the trolley. According to the transportation system of the present invention, when the trolley detects the preceding trolley by the first detection means in the area separated by the plurality of detected members, the trolley can stop decelerating. Therefore, by changing the speed of the trolley according to the detection of the detected member by the second detection means, it is possible to prevent the trolley from stopping at the interrupted position of the walking track against fire. φ That is, the first and second detection means provided on the trolley and the plurality of detected members provided on the traveling track can control the velocity of the trolley. Therefore, it is not necessary to provide the control for the speed of the console car on the traveling track. Apparatus 〇 In the transportation system, when the trolley is traveling when the trolley detects the member to be detected that is close to the fire prevention cymbal, it is not necessary to stop the trolley to travel. According to the conveying system of the present invention, when the trolley reaches the inspected member close to the square of fire prevention (5) * 1228481, it still walks without stopping. Therefore, in a region separated by a plurality of detection members, when the speed of the trolley becomes insufficient, the trolley becomes a blocking position that can pass through the traveling track that prevents fire. Therefore, it can prevent the trolley from stopping in the blocking position according to the fire prevention. Moreover, in the above-mentioned conveying system, the first detection means includes two detection areas for detecting the preceding trolley below two different detection distances; and in the first detection area outside the area separated by the plurality of detected members, In the field of φ detection, when the preceding trolley is detected by the first detection means, the trolley is decelerated to walk; in the second detection field with a detection distance shorter than the first detection field, the detection is performed by the first detection means. When the preceding trolley is decelerated to stop the trolley, according to the transportation system of the present invention, when the preceding trolley is detected in the first detection field with a longer detection distance, the trolley is decelerated in advance, so the second inspection with a shorter detection distance is performed. In the field of detection, when the preceding trolley is tested, the trolley can be stopped at a short distance. Therefore, the trolley can stop without chasing the preceding trolley. [Embodiment] Figs. 1 to 6 show an embodiment of a conveyance system according to the present invention. The transport system 100 of this embodiment has a plurality of floors. For example, as shown in the figure below, a person who can move goods in each room of a hospital building with high efficiency is provided with a walking track 1 and a walking track that can be walked. 8-(6) 1228481 A plurality of trolleys 1 〇 , And is arranged on the way of the walking track 1, for the trolley] 0, a plurality of stations S T for loading and unloading the goods. In addition, in the transportation system 100, when a fire occurs in one room, in order to suppress the burning to other rooms, a fire prevention box 20 is provided on the way of the walking track 1 to block each room. The station ST is a user for loading and unloading the cargo on the trolley 10, and is provided with an operation stove for instructing the transportation of the cargo at the other station ST. The station ST is located not only on the same floor of the building, but also on other floors. Therefore, the transportation of goods from one floor to another floor is performed by the elevator 5 which raises and lowers the trolley 10 up and down. As shown in FIG. 2, in a state where no fire has occurred, the fire prevention 扉 20 can be accommodated above the walking rail 1 through the blocking position W of the walking rail 1. In the event of a fire, the fire protection 扉 20 descends from above the walking track 1 to the downward direction (direction B) and becomes a blocking travel track! . The section X, which is provided on the entire front and back along the direction of the walking track 1 from the fire prevention line 20, is to close the empty space of the walking track 1 required for the fire prevention line 20. That is, when the trolley 10 is within the section X, when the fire prevention cymbal 20 is closed, the fire prevention cymbal 20 comes into contact with the trolley 10 and becomes in a state in which the traveling track 1 cannot be blocked. On the upper surface 1 a of the walking track 1, bar code marks S a and SB are affixed, and the bar code mark S b is affixed to the position of the trolley 10 before entering the section X in the direction of a. Also, the bar code mark SA is placed at a position immediately ahead of the bar code mark S B at a certain interval toward the fireproof cymbal 20. These bar code marks s A and S B are on the front side of the trolley X entering the section X in the direction of {al A}, and are used to control the walking speed of the trolley (10) 1228481. · Trolley 10 is used to load cargo at one station ST and transport it to another station sT. The cart 10 is equipped with a front carriage sensor (first detection means) 11 and a bar code reader (second Detection means) 12; and a control device (not shown) provided with the running speed of the console car 10. The front carriage sensor 11 is used to detect the carriage 10 that is moving in the direction (direction A) of the carriage 10, and has two detection distances. The first detection distance (first detection area) B 1 is the trolley 10 that is traveling at the highest speed, and when another vehicle I __ stopped in front is detected, the trolley 10 is slowly decelerated from the highest speed. Chase the preceding trolley for a distance of 10. In addition, the second detection distance (second detection area) B2 is a distance at which the trolley 10 must be stopped immediately in order to prevent a collision with the preceding traveling track 10. The bar code reader 12 is used for detecting the bar code marks SA and S B posted on the walking track], and is opposed to the upper side of the walking track 1; [a side is provided on the lower end of the trolley 10]. The bar code reader 12 can read the bar code marks s A and S b, and the trolley 10 can be positioned directly in front of the section X. ·! The control device becomes the travel speed of the controllable vehicle 10 based on the information around the vehicle 1 〇 obtained by using these front travelling sensors n and the bar code reader 12. In the transportation system 100 constructed as described above, the walking speed of the trolley 〇 is changed by the inter-vehicle distances B 1 and B 2 from the preceding trolley 10 and the bar codes S a and S b. The travel control of the trolley i 0 will be described below. That is, as shown in Fig. 3, first, the control device travels the trolley 1 0 at the first set speed V 1 (step s 丨). The first set speed v is ~ 10 ~ (8) 1228481 The trolley 1 〇 transported the goods and walked on the walking track 1. With the front trolley sensor 11, the trolley 1 that precedes the trolley 1 〇 is not detected. Speed of the state. After that, the process proceeds to step S2, and the front travel sensor 11 determines that the inter-vehicle distance from the trolley 10 is below the first detection distance B1, and when the inter-vehicle distance is greater than the first detection distance B1, it returns to The process proceeds to step S1 and the subsequent trolley 10 is traveled at the first set speed V]. When the inter-vehicle distance from the preceding trolley 10 is less than the first detection distance B 1, the process proceeds to step S 3, and the front-travel sensor 11 determines whether the inter-vehicle distance is the second detection distance B 2. the following. As a result, when the inter-vehicle distance from the preceding trolley 10 is greater than the second detection distance B2, the process proceeds to step s4, and the barcode reader 12 is used to determine whether the subsequent trolley 1 is marked with a bar code S Α, S β. Separated area. As a result, when the subsequent cart 10 is not in the area separated by the bar code marks S A and S B, the process proceeds to step S5, and the control device changes the speed of the subsequent cart 10 to the second set speed V2. Here, the second set speed · γ2 is a slower speed than the first set speed V !. That is, the following trolley 10 is walking at the first set speed V], and the inter-vehicle distance from the preceding trolley 10 becomes the first detection distance B1, and then becomes the first—§5: constant speed V 2 slow down. After completion of the processing of step s5 ', the processing shown in step S2 is performed. When it is determined in step S 3 by the front vehicle sensor] that the second detection distance B2 is less than the inter-vehicle distance from the preceding cart 10, the process proceeds to step S6, and the control device sets the vehicle speed target. Change to 0, decelerate to stop the following trolley 10. After that, in step S7, it is determined whether or not the following car] (9) 1228481 is stopped, and when the car 10 is not stopped ', the processing shown in step S2 is performed. Further, in step S4, when the next 10 carts are judged by the barcode reader 12 to be within the interval between the bar code marks sa and SB, the processing shown in steps S6 and S7 is performed in the same manner as described above. . That is, in a state where the inter-vehicle distance from the preceding trolley 10 is less than the first detection distance B 1, when the inter-vehicle distance becomes less than the second detection distance B 2, or the subsequent trolley 10 enters the bar code marks SA, S In the interval of 'b', decelerating to stop the following car 1 ◦ ° In step S7, when the following car 10 stops, the inter-vehicle distance from the preceding car 10 is the first in the interval of the bar code marks SA and SB. When the first detection distance B 1 or more, or when it becomes the second detection distance B 2 or more outside the interval of the bar code marks s A and SB, the subsequent trolley 10 starts to walk. The graphs in FIGS. 4 to 6 are examples of speed control. The horizontal axis of each graph indicates the position of the traveling track, and the trolley 10 is created to move from the left side to the right side of the paper surface along the horizontal axis. The vertical axis of each graph indicates the target speed of the cart 10 and the actual speed of the cart 10 according to the control device. For example, as shown in FIG. 4, when the position of the carriage 10 in the direction S c immediately before the bar code mark SA is located, and the inter-vehicle distance from the preceding carriage 10 is equal to or less than the first detection distance B 1, The process of step S5 causes the vehicle speed of the subsequent trolley 10 to decelerate toward the second set speed V2. This deceleration is performed to prevent damage to the cargo loaded on the trolley 10, and to smoothly proceed over a long distance. When passing the bar code mark SA, the process of step S6 is performed to decelerate to (10) 1228481 Stopping a trolley 10 and stopping in front of the bar code mark S b. For example, as shown in FIG. 5, when the traveling direction of the trolley 10 is positioned more forward than the position S c and the inter-vehicle distance from the preceding trolley is less than or equal to the first detection distance B 1, the procedure is performed. The processing of s 5 causes the subsequent vehicle speed of the trolley 10 to be reduced to the second set speed V2. When the bar code mark Sa is passed at the vehicle speed, the process of step S6 is performed, and the subsequent trolley 10 stops in the interval separated by the bar code marks SA and SB. For example, as shown in FIG. 6, when the inter-vehicle distance between the position sc and the bar code mark s A 'and the preceding trolley 10 is less than or equal to the first detection distance B 1, the process of step S 5 is performed so that the subsequent The speed of the trolley 丨 〇 is decelerated toward the second set speed V2. Further, the subsequent carriage 10 passes the bar code mark Sa 'at the vehicle speed, then performs the process of step S6, and decelerates to a stop. However, when the following trolley 10 passes the bar code mark SB, the process of step S5 is further performed, and the vehicle 10 is accelerated to the second set speed V2, and is in the state of passing through the blocking position W of the fireproof cymbal 20. That is, between the position S c and the bar code mark S b, when the front carriage sensor 1 丨 φ detects the first detection distance B 1, the subsequent car 1 〇 cannot stop at the bar code mark d S even if it decelerates. b's regular square. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2, when the subsequent trolley 10 is at the position S c, there must be at least one trolley between the front end boundary X 1 of the section X and the preceding trolley 10. Positionable degree of clearance. Therefore, the first detection distance B 1 is set as the addition trolley! 〇 The braking distance from the set speed V! —To the stop (the length from the position Sc—to the barcode mark s B), the length of the interval X, the second detection distance B 2 -13- (11) 1228481, and a The length of the trolley 10 is ideal. In addition, an emergency stop mechanism is provided in the transport system 100 to prevent collision of the trolley 10 and the fire prevention mechanism 20 more reliably. The emergency stop mechanism 1 50 is composed of a transmitter 3 1 provided on the top wall surface 3 0 above the running track 1 and a receiver (not shown) provided on the trolley 10 and receiving signals transmitted from the transmitter 31. (Shown), and the bar code marks SB and SD provided on the traveling track 1. The transmitter 31 is a receiver who transmits a signal allowing access to the section X to the receiver of the trolley 10, and sends an access permission signal in a normal state ′ and stops the sender of the permission signal in a fire. The bar code mark SD is placed on the upper surface 1a side of the traveling track 1 facing the fireproof cylinder 20 more forward than the bar code mark SA. In the state where the trolley 10 is walking in the direction of A, the area separated by the bar code marks SB and SD, when the receiver receives the admission signal, it performs walking according to the speed control described above. In addition, when the access permission signal is not received, the vehicle 10 is stopped by emergency braking, and collision between the vehicle 10 and the fire prevention unit 20 is reliably prevented. Here, the emergency braking means that the trolley 10 can be forcibly stopped at a slight distance from the first set speed V !. φ As described above, the barcode reader 1 2 provided on the trolley according to the conveying system 1 0 0 detects the barcode marks S a and S b arranged on the traveling track 1, and thus becomes the trolley 10 itself. The trolley 10 is located directly in front of the fireproof raft 20. In the interval separated by the bar code marks Sa and Sb, when the front carriage sensor 11 of the carriage 10 detects another preceding carriage 10, the carriage 10 is decelerated to a stopped state. . Therefore, by detecting the bar code marks SA and SB according to the bar code reader 12, the speed of the trolley 10 can be changed to prevent the trolley]. Stopping at -14- (12) 1228481 Fire 扉 2 0 The interruption position w of the running track 1. When the trolley 10 reaches the bar code mark Sb, it does not stop traveling. Therefore, in the area separated by the bar code marks S a and S b 'If the deceleration of the trolley 10 is insufficient, the trolley 10 is a blocking position W which can pass the traveling track 1 according to the fire prevention 扉 2 0. . Therefore, the bogie 10 can be prevented from stopping at the blocking position W of the guard fire 20. From the above, the speed of the trolley 10 can be achieved by the front carriage sensor 11 1 'bar code reader 12 provided on the trolley 10 and the bar code marks S a and S b' provided on the traveling track 1. control. Therefore, it is not necessary to install the control device on the traveling track 1 for the speed control of the trolley 10, so the installation cost of the transport system 100 can be reduced. Moreover, it is unnecessary to reduce the speed of the trolley, thereby reducing the time required for cargo transportation. In addition, when the front carriage sensor 11 of the carriage 10 detects the preceding carriage 10 at the first detection distance B1, 'to decelerate the carriage 10 beforehand', the detection of the preceding carriage 1 0 at the second detection distance B2. At this time, the trolley 10 can be stopped at a short distance. Therefore, the trolley 10 is stopped without chasing the preceding trolley 10. In the above-mentioned embodiment, the positions where the bar code marks SA and SB are posted are not limited to the upper surface 1 a 'of the traveling track 1 but on the traveling track. Below 1 is also possible. It is not limited to the bar code marks SA and SB. For example, a bar code mark may be separately provided in front of each station ST. At this time, the bar code reader 12 detects the bar code mark directly in front of the station ST, and conveys the situation that the goods arrive at the station ST intended for transportation to the control device of the trolley 10, that is, the deceleration table (13) 1228481 car 1 〇 Become stopped at station s τ. In addition, the blocking of the walking track 1 according to the fire prevention 扉 20 can be performed when a fire occurs, but it is not limited to this. For example, it is also possible to create the fire prevention 扉 2 0 when a toxic gas occurs in a room. . In addition, the fire prevention 扉 20 is accommodated above the walking track 1 and is made to move in the direction B to block the walking track I, but is not limited to this. For example, it is stored in the lower side of the walking track 1 from the walking track The lower side of 1 may move upward to block the traveling track 1 or may be housed on the side of the traveling track 1, and may block the traveling track 1 from both sides of the traveling track 1.
