Problems solved by technology

[0010] The disadvantage of this known system is that since the control speed of the tiltable tray depends on the movement speed of the vertical sorter, the unloading of the parcels is mechanically controlled
There is also a noticeable noise pollution as the movable opening part hits the actuator of the tilting tray
Another disadvantage of the [0011] known prior art lies in the stretchability of the endless conveyor belt, which allows only a limited prestress, due to its elasticity causing the belt to elongate, with the With continuous operation this elongation will increase further

Embodiment Construction

[0063] refer to Figure 1 to Figure 7 Embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail.

[0064] figure 1 and 2 A schematic side view of a sorting system 1 according to the invention is shown, which comprises a vertical sorter 2 which is arranged for conveying and sorting parcel goods 3 . For this purpose, the vertical sorter 2 comprises a plurality of sorting units 5 which are connected to one another along a path of movement 7 by means of a closed conveyor belt 6 and are movable along the path of movement 7 .

[0065] In this embodiment each sorting unit 5 comprises a carrier 30 connected to a conveyor belt 6, which is now configured to pull a carrier 11, and a package receiver 8 mounted on the carrier, in this embodiment the receiver The structure is tiltable tray 9.

[0066] The length of each sorting unit 5 is now substantially determined by the length of the tiltable tray 9 and corresponds substantially to the distance 4 between two sorting units,...

Abstract

The invention relates to a sorting system having a vertical sorter (2) for delivering and sorting piece goods, comprising a plurality of sorting units (5) at prescribed distances from each other, extending over a closed conveyor belt (6) along a track (7), connected to the conveyor belt, and movable along the track. Two diverter drums (27, 29) having horizontal axes of rotation are provided, of which at least one diverter drum serves as a drive drum in order to divert the conveyor belt and the sorting units disposed thereon about the horizontally aligned axes of rotation and to drive the same. The conveyor belt is designed as a tie beam (11). The conveyor belt is reinforced by reinforcing means (12) to this end, in order to drive the sorting units. A sorting unit comprises a moving device having idlers (31) and is attached to the conveyor belt, wherein the sorting unit comprises at least one piece goods receptacle (8) from which received piece goods can be discarded in a controlled manner.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a sorting system with a vertical sorter, in particular to a sorting system for conveying and sorting parcel goods, such as a system for conveying and sorting parcels or for sorting luggage in an airport . Background technique [0002] These vertical sorters are line sorters with vertical diverters at the end of the conveyor line. Such a vertical turn is made about a nearly horizontal axis. Vertical sorters are usually equipped with a number of successively installed carriers, each connected to an inclined tray or a transverse conveyor for sorting out the conveyed goods at predetermined or selectable locations along the transport path. Parcel and change its direction or divert the conveyed parcel goods. [0003] The advantage of a vertical sorter over a sorting system that moves along a horizontal curve is that it has a closed or very close to closed conveying plane, which facilitates the conveying of large-sized parcels whos...
