    摘要: The present invention relates to a sorting robot and a sorting method. The sorting method is applicable to the foregoing sorting robot, where the sorting robot is configured to deliver specific goods to be sorted to a specific sorting position, and a sorting mechanism carrying the specific goods to be sorted corresponds to the specific sorting position. The sorting method includes: S130: the sorting mechanism receiving goods to be sorted; S140: the sorting mechanism being raised or lowered to a height corresponding to the sorting position under drive of a lifting mechanism; and S160: the sorting mechanism performing an action to deliver the goods to be sorted that is placed on the sorting mechanism to the corresponding sorting position. According to the foregoing sorting robot and sorting method, the coordination among the chassis, the lifting mechanism, and the sorting mechanism realizes automation of goods sorting, reduces cost of the goods sorting, and greatly improves efficiency of the goods sorting. In addition, the sorting mechanism is moved to different heights under drive of the lifting mechanism, so that the goods to be sorted can be put into sorting positions having different heights.

    摘要: Provided are a handling robot (600) and a handling assembly (100) thereof, and the handling assembly (100) includes a base component (10), a handling arm component (20), a hook (31) and a driving component (40). The handling arm component (20) is slidably mounted to the base component (10), and may perform a reciprocating linear movement on the base component (10). The driving component (40) is connected with the handling arm component (20), for driving the handling arm component (20) and the hook (31) to perform a reciprocating linear movement. Through the above structure, the handling assembly (100) pulling and pushing the material box (500) is realized without extending into two sides of the material box (500), thereby saving working space of the handling assembly (100), enabling the material boxes (500) of the warehousing to be placed next to each other, and improving the storage density of the warehouse.

    摘要: Embodiments of this application provide a method and device for controlling a transport robot, a vertical support, and a transport robot. The transport robot includes a vertical support and a carrying device. The vertical support includes a fixed column frame and a movable column frame. The carrying device is movably arranged on the movable column frame. The movable column frame is movably arranged on the fixed column frame. The carrying device is configured to carry goods. The method for controlling a transport robot includes: receiving a movement instruction; and driving, according to the movement instruction, the carrying device to move relative to the movable column frame and/or the movable column frame to move relative to the fixed column frame. In this way, a height of the transport robot can not only be increased by controlling movement of the carrying device relative to the fixed column frame, but also be increased by controlling ascending of the movable column frame relative to the fixed column frame. Therefore, the height by which the carrying device is allowed to ascend or descend is equal to a sum of a stroke of the fixed column frame and a stroke of the movable column frame, so that the carrying device can ascend or descend in a wider height range, providing a broader range of applications.
