下面对本实施例的智能物流柜的工作过程进行说明。
首先介绍智能物流柜与无人运送装置的交互过程。
当无人运送装置投递快件时,物流中心控制无人运送装置驶向目标智能物流柜,并向目标智能物流柜的控制器发送无人运送装置投件请求,无人运送装置带着快件驶至目标智能物流柜的上方,并与该智能物流柜的第一存取口121相对,智能物流柜的控制器在接收到无人运送装置投件请求后控制第一存取门122打开,控制第一递送装置3的托板驱动机构驱动托板组件31移动至伸出位置,使凸台311的上表面伸至柜体1外设定高度,无人运送装置将快件放置在凸台311上,控制器控制托板驱动机构驱动托板组件31移动至缩回位置,由于凸台311位于缩回位置时,凸台311位于周转格22的第一托板221和第二托板222下方,因此快件被搁置在周转格22的第一托板221和第二托板222上,然后控制器控制第二递送装置4移动至与周转格22对应的位置,控制递送小车41的平台412取走周转格22内的快件,并送至一个空的储物格21内存放,与此同时,控制器控制第一存取门122关闭第一存取口121。
当无人运送装置取快件时,物流中心向目标智能物流柜的控制器发送无人运送装置取件请求,并控制无人运送装置驶至目标智能物流柜。智能物流柜的控制器在接到无人运送装置取件请求后,控制第二递送装置4移动至目标储物格21处,控制递送小车41的平台412取走该储物格21内的快件,并将快件送至周转格22内存放,然后控制器控制第一存取门122打开,控制第一递送装置3的托板驱动机构驱动托板组件31移动至伸出位置,在此过程中,凸台311将快件顶起,并送至柜体1外部,无人运送装置将快件带走,控制器控制第一递送装置3的托板驱动机构驱动托板组件31移动至缩回位置,并控制第一存取门122关闭第一存取口121。
接着介绍智能物流柜与用户的交互过程。
当用户投递快件时,控制器控制第二递送装置4移动至与第二存取口151相对应的位置,并控制第二存取门152的安全锁解锁,第二存取门152可以被打开,此时,用户可通过第二存取口151、递送小车41的第一开口4111将快件放至递送小车41内,然后,控制器控制第二递送装置4移动至与空的储物格21相对应的位置,然后递送小车41将该快件放在该储物格21内存放。
当用户取快件时,控制器控制第二递送装置4移动至目标储物格21处,控制递送小车41的平台412取走该储物格21内的快件,然后控制第二递送装置4移动至与第二存取口151相对应的位置,并控制第二存取门152的安全锁解锁,第二 存取门152可以被打开,用户可通过第二存取口151、递送小车41的第一开口4111取走递送小车41内的快件。
本实施例提供的智能物流柜包括柜体1、设置在柜体1内部的货架2和第一递送装置3以及第二递送装置4,其中,柜体1的顶部设有被配置为供无人运送装置存取物品的第一存取口121,柜体1的侧壁设有被配置为供人工存取物品的第二存取口151。货架2包括周转格22和多个储物格21,其中周转格22位于第一存取口121的下方且与第一存取口121连通;第一递送装置3被配置为在周转格22与储物格21之间递送物品;第一递送装置3设置在周转格22的下方,被配置为在周转格22与柜体1外部之间递送物品。本实施例提供的智能物流柜可以使用无人运送装置存取物品,物品存取效率高。
图10是根据另一实施例的智能物流柜的结构示意图。如图10所示,本实施例与上一实施例相比,不同之处在于,本实施例中,柜体1包括N个第二存取口151,且N个第二存取口151与货架2的N个储物格21位置一一对应,每个第二存取口151处均设有被配置为打开或关闭第二存取口151的第二存取门152,以及被配置为将第二存取门152锁定在关闭位置的安全锁(图中未示出)。
沿前后方向,第二递送装置4设置在后侧板与货架2之间,第二递送装置4被配置为在储物格21与周转格22之间递送物品。
下面介绍本实施例提供的智能物流柜的工作过程。
无人运送装置投递和取快件的工作过程同上一实施例的无人运送装置投递快件的工作过程所述,在此不再赘述。
当用户投递快件时,控制器控制与空的储物格21对应的第二存取门152的安全锁打开,用户可通过该第二存取口151将快件放入与该第二存取口151相对的储物格21内。
当用户取快件时,控制器控制与放有目标快件的储物格21对应的第二存取门152的安全锁打开,用户可以通过该第二存取口151取走放在该储物格21内的快件。
本实施例中的智能物流柜包括多个第二存取口151,且多个第二存取口151与多个储物格21一一对应连通,当用户寄件、取件时,直接控制相应的第二存取门152的安全锁解锁,用户即可直接取走快件或投递快件,因此进一步提高了配送效率。
