Definitions

  • the invention relates to a driverless, in particular automatically guided and preferably an autonomous, automatically guided transport vehicle for transporting payloads.
  • Such vehicles are mostly used as so-called industrial trucks or material transport vehicles in production plants, for example to transport certain payloads in the warehouse or from the warehouse to the production line and thereby preferably to navigate autonomously.
  • the load in such transport vehicles can consist of both the payload itself and a payload carrier that can be loaded separately with the payload - for example a frame, a roller coaster and the like.
  • the transport vehicle should be able to drive under such a payload carrier, lift it independently, transport it to the destination and set it down again there. For this purpose it is equipped with an integrated lifting device.
  • the invention is based on the object of proposing a generic transport vehicle with improved maintenance options, in particular for electrical and electronic components and systems.
  • the invention provides that a removable interchangeable module is arranged in the chassis of the transport vehicle, in which a plurality of electrical and / or electronic components are combined. A large part of the electrical and electronic components and systems can be conveniently preassembled and then inserted into the transport vehicle.
  • the complete interchangeable module can initially be quickly and effectively replaced by a compatible, intact interchangeable module, thereby significantly reducing downtimes.
  • Troubleshooting, error analysis, programming and replacement of the defective component can take place at a later point in time in a dust-free environment at an optimally equipped workstation.
  • the heavy and possibly soiled transport vehicle does not have to be transported and cleaned separately for this purpose, and no complex decontamination measures have to be carried out at the location of the transport vehicle.
  • This module also offers the advantage for the production of the vehicles that it can be pre-assembled completely independently of the rest of the structure of the transport vehicle, for example with a specialized Fiersteller. Furthermore, differently equipped and / or programmed interchangeable modules can be provided for different task scenarios, which can be exchanged quickly.
  • the invention also provides that the interchangeable module has a separate module housing in which the electrical and / or electronic components are accommodated.
  • At least one electronic control unit can be contained in the interchangeable module for effective use and extended usability.
  • the transport vehicle has a front vehicle section, a middle vehicle section and a rear vehicle section, the front vehicle section being supported by a front partition wall and the rear vehicle section are separated by a rear partition wall from the middle vehicle section and that the interchangeable module is arranged in the middle vehicle section.
  • the preferred embodiment further proposes that in the front vehicle section at least one first Sensor arrangement for detecting the vehicle environment and at least two vehicle wheels, in particular support wheels are arranged.
  • the preferred embodiment also proposes that at least one second sensor arrangement for detecting the vehicle surroundings and at least two drive wheels including associated travel drives are arranged in the rear section of the vehicle.
  • the preferred embodiment of the invention further provides that a floating drive for actuating the lifting device is arranged in the middle from the vehicle section. It is particularly easy to access, and the interchangeable module can be quickly removed for even better accessibility.
  • the lifting device is actuated via an eccentric drive.
  • an eccentric drive As a result, it can be constructed in a particularly simple and robust manner, at the same time in a space-saving manner, and also requires significantly less control effort, for example in comparison to several separate, individually controllable lifting elements.
  • the eccentric elements which are arranged in pairs on each side and coupled to one another, are accommodated in a space-saving manner within the box-shaped load carrier element.
  • An embodiment provides for an effective and fast connection of electrical and electronic loads in the transport vehicle that electrical and / or electronic components from the front, middle and rear vehicle sections are connected to the interchangeable module via electrical lines.
  • the interchangeable module can preferably have a few, particularly preferably a single, combined electrical interface, which is designed for the simultaneous connection of several electrical and / or electronic components outside the interchangeable module.
  • the interchangeable module can have a combined electrical interface for connecting all consumers in the rear vehicle section and a further combined electrical interface for connecting all consumers in the front and middle vehicle sections.
  • FIG. 1 greatly simplified representation of the transport vehicle in plan view (view a) and side views with retracted (b) and extended (c) lifting device.
  • FIG. 2 views according to FIG. 1, but additionally with a payload carrier.
  • FIG 3 shows an example of an embodiment of the transport vehicle with a payload in a payload carrier.
  • Fig. 4 three-dimensional representation of the transport vehicle with one removed (a) and one inserted (b) interchangeable module.
  • FIG. 5 shows a greatly simplified basic representation of the transport vehicle 1 in a top view.
  • the driverless transport vehicle 1 is used in particular to transport payloads on smooth floors in production and assembly plants, for example to transport parts and components to and from the production line or in the parts warehouse.

  • the transport vehicle 1 has a flat, compact chassis 8 in and on which all control and drive components are arranged.
  • the transport vehicle 1 moves on a pair of support wheels 15 and a pair of drive wheels 14.
  • the drive wheels 14 can be driven independently of one another and can thus be used both for propulsion and for steering the transport vehicle 1.
