Method and device for quantitative sorting and counting of items output by independent control channel

Abstract

A method for independently controlling the quantitative stacking and counting of channel output items, comprising the following steps: step 1, driving multiple items to be transported in a single-layer state through at least two channels, and each channel is independently controlled to output items or stop output items , step 2, the items are separated into separate item piles after being output by each channel, and the number of items in each item pile is accurately counted by means of imaging, step 3, each item pile is received by a temporary storage warehouse , when the total number of items in any combined temporary storage bin is the same as the target number, send all the items in the combined temporary storage bin to the storage; a combined temporary storage bin includes at least one temporary storage warehouse, the total number of items in a combination of temporary storage bins is the sum of the number of items in all temporary storage bins included in the combination, independently control the time and time period of each channel to output items, so that a suitable The probability of combination will increase, the distribution efficiency can be significantly improved, and it is not easy to overflow the number of items.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of item distribution, in particular to a method and a device for quantitatively sorting and counting items output by an independent control channel. Background technique [0002] The method for quantitatively sorting and counting articles in the prior art includes the following steps: step 1, the conveyor drives the article flow to move to the end of the conveyor in a single layer state, and makes the article flow leave the end of the conveyor, and the article flow is separated It is at least two side-by-side and non-overlapping branch product streams, and maintains the original single-layer state and moving direction. Step 2, the conveyor periodically moves to transport the product stream, so that the product stream leaves the end of the conveyor and is disconnected, forming Article pile, every time the conveyor runs a cycle, the article flow is divided into an article pile. Step 3, the number of articles i...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] The problem existing in the prior art is that each item channel separated by the conveyor will output a stack of items in each movement cycle of the conveyor

However, each movement cycle of the conveyor will output a pile of items to each group of temporary storage bins, that is to say, even if there are still enough empty temporary storage bins in all temporary storage bins, when a channel corresponds to When a group of temporary storage bins in a group are all loaded with items, this group of temporary storage bins also needs to accept a new item pile, and the number of items will be superimposed and the number of items will overflow.
