As shown in fig. 4, the article taking cabinet further includes a conveying mechanism 3 and an article receiving component 2, wherein the conveying mechanism 3 is located in an inner cavity of the cabinet body 1 and located below the first cargo inlet 11 of the cabinet body 1, the conveying mechanism 3 is used for conveying the cargo 7 into the corresponding storage box 14, the article receiving component 2 is arranged at the top of the cabinet body 1, and the article receiving component 2 is used for receiving the cargo 7 delivered by the unmanned aerial vehicle 6. Specifically, the height of the end of the object receiving part 2 close to the conveying mechanism 3 is lower than the height of the end far away from the conveying mechanism 3, so that the goods 7 falling into the object receiving part 2 can fall into the conveying mechanism 3 through the first goods inlet 11 under the action of gravity, and the conveying mechanism 3 can convey the goods 7 to the storage box 14.

In this embodiment, unmanned aerial vehicle 6 flies to when getting the top of thing cabinet, put into thing part 2 with goods 7, because it is less than the height of keeping away from the one end of conveying mechanism 3 to connect the height that thing part 2 is close to the one end of conveying mechanism 3, thereby make goods 7 can fall into conveying mechanism 3 under the effect of gravity when connecing thing part 2, thereby carry goods 7 to storage tank 3 through conveying mechanism 3, consequently, whole delivery in-process unmanned aerial vehicle 6 need not to berth and get the thing cabinet, thereby save unmanned aerial vehicle 6 descending and the time of taking off, improve the delivery efficiency of goods 7. Meanwhile, the article taking cabinet is provided with the article receiving component 2 above the cabinet body 1, the goods 7 can be conveyed into the conveying mechanism 3 in the cabinet body 1 through the article receiving component 2, and the goods 7 enter the conveying mechanism 3 from the article receiving component 2, the power source of the goods 7 is the gravity of the goods 7, namely, the driving component for arranging the goods 7 on the article receiving component 2 is not needed, so that the structures of the article receiving component 2 and the article taking cabinet are simplified, and the cost and the energy consumption are reduced. In addition, the goods 7 do not need to be clamped by a clamping component in the process of entering the conveying mechanism 3, so that the goods 7 with different sizes and shapes can be delivered by the fetching cabinet, and the applicability of the fetching cabinet is improved.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 4 and 5, the article receiving member 2 includes a first conveying portion 21, the first conveying portion 21 is disposed obliquely, the first conveying portion 21 has a first end close to the conveying mechanism 3 and a second end far from the conveying mechanism 3, and the height of the second end is higher than that of the first end, that is, the height of the first conveying portion 21 is gradually reduced in a direction close to the conveying mechanism 3.

In this embodiment, when the first conveying portion 21 is disposed obliquely, the gravity of the cargo 7 falling into the first conveying portion 21 has a component force toward the conveying mechanism 3, and the component force is greater than the frictional force between the cargo 7 and the first conveying portion 21, so that the cargo 7 can be driven to move toward the conveying mechanism 3 by the component force, the cargo 7 can be transported to the receiving component 2 toward the conveying mechanism 3, and a driving component is not required during transportation.

More specifically, the inclination angle α of the first conveying portion 21 satisfies: the angle α is 5 ° ≦ α ≦ 85 °, for example, the inclination angle α may specifically be 5 °, 10 °, 20 °, 30 °, 60 °, 70 °, 85 °, or the like. In a possible embodiment, the inclination angle α of the first conveyor 21 satisfies: the angle α of inclination is 5 ° ≦ α ≦ 45 °, for example, the angle α of inclination may specifically be 5 °, 10 °, 20 °, 30 °, 45 °, or the like. The inclination angle α represents an angle between the first conveying unit 21 and a horizontal plane.

If the inclination angle α of the first conveying part 21 is too small (for example, less than 5 °), the component force of the gravity of the cargo 7 toward the conveying mechanism 3 is small, that is, the driving force of the cargo 7 moving on the first conveying part 21 is too small, which may result in that the cargo 7 cannot move to the conveying mechanism 3 or the speed of the cargo 7 moving to the conveying mechanism 3 is too small, thereby reducing the delivery efficiency; if the inclination angle α of the first conveying section 21 is too large (for example, greater than 85 °), the component force of the gravity of the load 7 toward the conveying mechanism 3 becomes too large, the speed at which the load 7 moves from the first conveying section 21 to the conveying mechanism 3 becomes too large, and the conveying mechanism 3 is impacted, and there is a risk of damaging the load 7 and the conveying mechanism 3, and if the inclination angle α is too large, the height of the first conveying section 21 becomes too large, and the height of the pickup box is increased. Therefore, when the inclination angle alpha is more than or equal to 5 degrees and less than or equal to 45 degrees, the driving force of the goods 7 moving on the first conveying component 21 is moderate, the moving speed is moderate, and the height of the fetching cabinet cannot be overlarge.

Of course, the first conveying unit 21 does not necessarily have to have an inclined structure as shown in fig. 4 and 5, and may have a step structure, that is, the first conveying unit 21 includes a plurality of steps (similar to a stair structure), and the height of the steps is gradually reduced in a direction approaching the conveying mechanism 3, and at this time, when the goods 7 move on the first conveying unit 21, the component force of the gravity thereof is directed to the conveying mechanism 3, so that the goods 7 can be driven to move to the conveying mechanism 3.

In a possible design, as shown in fig. 4, the pick-up component 2 may further include a second conveying portion 22, the second conveying portion 22 is disposed on both sides of the first conveying portion 21 along the length direction X of the pick-up cabinet, and the second conveying portion 22 may be connected to the first conveying portion 21, or may not be connected to the first conveying portion 22, the first conveying portion 21 and the two second conveying portions 22 enclose a pick-up area 24 of the pick-up component 2, that is, the pick-up area 24 is a space area enclosed by the conveying component 2, and when the drone 6 delivers the goods 7, the goods 7 may be delivered into the pick-up area 24.

Specifically, as shown in fig. 4, the second conveying part 22 is disposed obliquely, and the second conveying part 22 includes a third end close to the first conveying part 21 and a fourth end far from the first conveying part 21, and the height of the fourth end is greater than that of the third end; alternatively, the second conveying unit 22 may include a plurality of steps, and the height of the steps increases in a direction away from the first conveying unit 21, that is, the distance between two second conveying units 22 gradually increases in a direction away from the first conveying unit 21, so that the cross section of the graft region 24 surrounded by the first conveying unit 21 and the second conveying unit 22 is substantially trapezoidal, thereby increasing the area of the opening of the graft region 24.

In this embodiment, when the unmanned aerial vehicle 6 delivers the goods 7, the goods 7 can be delivered to the first conveying part 21 of the receiving part 2, and at this time, the goods 7 can move along the first conveying part 21 under the action of gravity, so that the goods 7 are conveyed to the conveying mechanism 3; the drone 6 may also deliver the cargo 7 to the second conveyor portions 22 located on both sides of the first conveyor portion 21, at which point the cargo 7 moves to the first conveyor portion 21 along the second conveyor portions 22 under the action of gravity, and then moves along the first conveyor portion 21 under the action of gravity, thereby conveying the cargo 7 to the conveying mechanism 3.

Therefore, in this embodiment, by providing the second conveying component 22 on the article receiving component 2, the size of the article receiving area 24 of the article receiving component 2 can be increased, and the unmanned aerial vehicle 6 can transport the goods 7 to the conveying mechanism 3 when delivering the goods 7 to the first conveying part 21 and the second conveying part 22, so that the requirement for the accuracy of delivering the goods 7 by the unmanned aerial vehicle 6 is further reduced, and the delivery efficiency is improved. And the second conveying component 22 does not need to be provided with a driving component, so that the structure of the second conveying component 22 is simpler, and the cost and the energy consumption are reduced.

More specifically, as shown in fig. 4, at least one of the first conveyor 21 and the second conveyor 22 includes a plurality of first needle rollers capable of rolling with respect to the load 7. When the first conveying part 21 includes a plurality of first roller pins, and the load 7 moves on the first conveying part 21, the first roller pins can roll relative to the load 7, so that rolling friction is generated between the first conveying part 21 and the load 7, and the resistance between the first conveying part 21 and the load 7 is reduced. Similarly, when the second conveying portion 22 includes a plurality of first roller pins, and the load 7 moves on the second conveying portion 22, the first roller pins can roll with respect to the load 7, so that rolling friction is generated between the second conveying portion 22 and the load 7, and the resistance between the second conveying portion 22 and the load 7 is reduced.

Of course, the first conveying unit 21 and the second conveying unit 22 may have other structures, such as rollers.

In this embodiment, because connect thing part 2 to install in the great first cavity 12 of the projection area of the cabinet body 1, consequently, this connect thing part 2's installation space is great, can increase the volume that connects thing part 2 to increase the volume that connects thing part 2's area 24, the area in the area that goods 7 can descend when can increase unmanned aerial vehicle 6 delivers goods 7 promptly, further reduce the requirement to unmanned aerial vehicle 6 delivery accuracy, thereby improve and deliver efficiency. Meanwhile, when the projection area of the second cavity 13 is smaller than that of the first cavity 12 and the second cavity 13 is located below the first cavity 12, the occupied volume of the article taking cabinet can be reduced, and the article taking cabinet is convenient to mount.

Specifically, as shown in the embodiment shown in fig. 6, the first cavity 12 may be a triangular cavity, and the second cavity 13 may be a rectangular cavity, of course, the first cavity 12 may also have other shapes as long as the projected area of the first cavity 12 in the height direction Z of the object taking cabinet is larger than the projected area of the second cavity 13 in the height direction Z of the object taking cabinet.

Further, as shown in fig. 7 and 8, the article taking cabinet further includes a lifting assembly 4 connected to the conveying mechanism 3, the lifting assembly 4 is used for driving the conveying mechanism 3 to lift, and during the lifting process of the conveying mechanism 3, the articles 7 can be conveyed to the corresponding storage box 14.
