detailed description

Referring to Figures 1 to 5, a pipeline logistics transport apparatus according to the present invention, the main body of the apparatus is composed of a plurality of interconnected pipes 1, and a transport vehicle for carrying goods in the plurality of pipes 1 2 and a total control room configuration, on which the positioning device is arranged, the general control room controls the transport vehicle 2 by the positioning device and causes the transport vehicle 2 to carry the cargo to the designated place, the plurality of The interconnected pipes 1 constitute a bus-like distribution or a tree-like distribution. The pipe 1 has a square cross section, and any two adjacent pipes 1 are detachably connected to each other. In the duct 1 there is provided a rail 3 for the transport of the transport vehicle 2, in the illustrated embodiment, the cross-section of the rail 3 is of a meandering type, and the ducts 1 are connected by a flange 4 The rails 3 projecting toward the inside of the duct 1 and extending along the length of the duct 1 are provided on the four inner side faces of the duct 1, and the rails 3 are arranged in this manner, and on the one hand, the ducts 1 can be reinforced. For the purpose of strength; on the other hand, once a certain section of pipe 1 is damaged and the track 3 in the pipe 1 is damaged, it is only necessary to rotate the pipe 1 and the flange 4 90 degrees along its center line, The rails 3 on the other three inner sides of the pipe 1 can be joined to the rails in the adjacent pipes, which can save maintenance time and cost, and the way of using the flange 4 to achieve a detachable connection is also in line with this goal. demand.

The transport vehicle 2 can be made of wear-resistant or high-temperature resistant plastic or lighter glass reinforced plastic. The transport vehicle 2 can be driven by electric power.
