Present invention also offers the control method of above-mentioned AGV power supply automatic-exchanging system, it comprises the steps:
1, when the battery electric quantity of AGV dolly is put lower than setting, send signal to control center, control center starts homing guidance device, AGV dolly is guided to pour appropriate location into, make battery case be in into battery area, battery is in the top of battery floor supporting plate, carries out replacing battery-operated;
2, be elevated supporting plate to rise, drive battery to depart from battery case and move, until lifting supporting plate rises to the top of stroke;
3, startup picks and places rotating band, drives battery to move pick and place on the roller-way in district along battery guided plate arrival power supply by battery shelves bar;
4, start roller conveyor structure, battery moves on roller-way, by power supply picks and places district, by zone of transition, arrives charging zone, finally arrives the correspondence position of the charging zone in room;
5, start charging rotating band, drive power supply to enter charge position by battery blend stop and charge;
6, after charging complete, start again charging rotating band, drive power supply to get back on the roller-way of charging zone by battery blend stop, it is stand-by that battery drives power storage district to deposit by startup roller-way;
7, while carrying out above-mentioned 4th step, the battery being in power storage district is driven and enters into electron source and pick and place district, when this battery arrives the position stopped having and need the AGV dolly changing battery, roller conveyor structure suspends, back-to-back starting picks and places rotating band, under the drive of battery blend stop, by battery along on battery guided plate mobile battery backing board;
8, be elevated supporting plate and decline its stroke of arrival bottom, battery is placed in battery case, completes the replacing of battery.
The beneficial effect brought of the present invention is, the replacing battery solved existing for prior art needs manual operations, reduce its automaticity, need to spend and a large amount of manually carry out monitoring battery use amount, carry out the technical matters of the replacing of battery, achieve a kind of can automatic monitoring, change the battery of AGV, and AGV power supply automatic-exchanging system easy to use, simple to operate and control method thereof.
