Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to shelving equipment that is capable of loading and unloading a large amount of goods at once, as well as picking and unloading small quantities of many kinds from multiple locations at the same time in the same lift aisle. It is something.

Conventionally, shelving equipment has been known to consist of a plurality of rows of multi-tier stacked shelves extending parallel to each other across a lift passage, and a hoisting platform and a shelving lift with telescopic forks that travel along the lift passage. ing. However, with this type of shelving equipment, there is no particular problem when loading and unloading large quantities of items, such as mechanical parts, all at once, but when loading and unloading a wide variety of items, such as books, in small quantities, Since it is necessary to operate a large and heavy shelving IJ lift each time, the power cost increases and it is uneconomical.Also, since there are multiple shelves in the same IJ lift aisle, small quantities of multiple types can be shipped at the same time. The problem is that I can't. The object of the present invention is to provide a shelf sorting equipment that advantageously solves the above-mentioned problems.

Next, the present invention will be explained in detail using illustrated examples. The drawing shows one embodiment of the present invention, in which a plurality of multi-tier stacked shelf rows 2 are arranged to extend in parallel across a lift passage 1, and an IJ is arranged at the lower center of the lift passage 1. The lower foot rail 8 is fixed to the floor 9 and is arranged at the upper center of the lift passage 1. The shelf stacker 3 fixed to the lower surface of the center and running along the lower rail 8 and the upper rail 10 is attached to a lifting platform 12 that is raised and lowered by a traveling drive device and a lifting drive device, and to the lifting platform 12. It is equipped with a telescopic form 13 and the like.

A plurality of picking car running rails 4 are provided on the side surfaces of the shelf supports on the lift path side in each multi-tiered stacked shelf row 2 at intervals in the vertical direction, and the levels of the left and right picking car running rails 4 are at the same level. arranged so that
Each picking car running rail 4 is fixed to the shelf support by welding or bolting, and furthermore, one end of each picking car running rail 4 extends beyond one end of the multi-tiered stacked shelf row 2 to the picking car shelter area 5. It has been extended to

Wheels 7 of picking cars 6 each equipped with a driving device powered by a battery are sent to the picking car running rails 4 on the same level on both the left and right sides of the lift passage 1, and the picking cars 6 In this case, picking buckets 14 are stacked, and stairs 15 for going up and down are provided in a space surrounded by one end of the multi-tiered stacked shelf row 2 and the picking car shelter area 5, and each multi-tiered stacked shelf row 2 and other A picking and unloading station 16 is provided at the end, and a shelf consisting of a belt conveyor is installed at a position opposite to the end of one of the multiple stacked shelf rows facing each other across the lift path 1. A stacking station IT is provided, and packages are transferred from this station 17 to the shelf stacking lift 3.

In the illustrated shelving equipment, when a large amount of cargo such as mechanical parts is stored in buckets or stacked on pallets and stored all at once, the storage is carried out using the shelf stacker 3.

In addition, when shipping small quantities of items, a worker rides the picking car 6, drives it, and manually stores the items.
Then, after driving the picking car 6 to a position facing the picking delivery station 16,
Picking out station 16 from the bucket 14
The goods are unloaded at the picking and unloading station 16.
The items that have been unloaded are carried out using the shelf stacker 3. In this case, in the same lift passage 1, a plurality of picking cars 6 are used for a plurality of shelves, so that items can be picked independently. Further, when it becomes necessary to take out the items stored in one shelf all at once, the shelf stack 3 is used to take out the goods.

In the case of the above embodiment, three stages of picking car running rails are provided in the same IJ foot passage so that three picking cars can run, but the number of stages of the picking car running rails is It is also possible to have two or four stages and run two or four or more picking cars.

According to the present invention, in a shelf head facility including multi-tiered stacked shelf rows 2 extending parallel to each other with a lift passage 1 interposed therebetween, and a shelf IJ lift 3 running in the lift passage 1, each multi-tiered stacked shelf row 2 A plurality of picking car running rails 4 are installed at intervals in the vertical direction on the sides of the lift passage, respectively, and the wheels 7 of the picking cars 6 are layered on the picking car running rails 4 of each stage. Not only can a large number of items be loaded and unloaded in bulk using the shelving IJ lift 3, but also multiple lightweight picking cars 6 can be operated in the same lift aisle 1 to shelve multiple locations. It is possible to pick and unload small quantities of items at the same time, and this makes it possible to pick and unload small quantities of items at the same time. Items can be unloaded with high efficiency and power costs can be reduced.Furthermore, one end of the picking car traveling rail 4 extends beyond the side of the multi-tiered stacked shelf row 2 to the picking car shelter area 5. Since it is extended, the picking car 6 can be moved to the shelter section 5.
By evacuating the shelves, the shelving IJ lift 3 can be moved to a position facing any shelf in the multi-tiered stacked shelf row 2, and other effects can be obtained.
