Problems solved by technology

Here, however, a very wide main conveyor would be required, which would be disadvantageous in terms of space, costs and also in terms of the subsequent splitting of the main flow into several destination streams

Embodiment Construction

[0042] figure 1 Shown is a packaged goods conveyor 2a having a main conveyor 4a with a conveyor element 60a in the form of a conveyor belt and three input conveyors 6, 8a, 10a. Directly downstream of the main conveyor 4a, an exporter 12 is connected. The main transmitter 4a is provided with a sensor 14 which is a laser rangefinder for use along the figure 1 The measuring direction shown by the dashed line in , measures the distance from the sensor output to the next object on which the measuring beam of the sensor 14 hits in the measuring direction.

[0043] On each of the three input conveyors 6 , 8 a , 10 a one packaged goods flow 16 , 18 , 20 is transported towards and onto the main conveyor 4 a. The packaged goods streams 16 , 18 , 20 each comprise a plurality of packaged goods 22 , which are postal or courier packages in a parcel center. The individual packaged goods 22 are located unevenly or irregularly in the packaged goods flow 16 , 18 , 20 or on the input conveyor...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for combining multiple separate streams (16, 18, 20) of materials to be packaged into a main stream (44). Each of the streams (16, 18, 20) is conveyed on a feed conveyor (6, 8a, 8b, 10a, 10b), combined with the main stream (44) in the region of a feed opening of the feed conveyor (6, 8a, 8b, 10a, 10b), and further transported in the main stream (44) on a main conveyor (4a, 4b, 4c), at least one lateral wall (42a, 42b) laterally delimiting the main stream (44). In order to counteract jamming when combining multiple separate streams (16, 18, 20) of materials to be packaged into the main stream (44) despite a narrowing of the conveyor width, materials (22) to be packaged of the main stream (44) are guided towards the lateral wall (42a, 42b, 42c) in the region between two feed openings of two feed conveyors (6, 8a, 8b, 10a, 10b) on the basis of an alignment of the main conveyor (4a, 4b, 4c) relative to the lateral wall, and the materials to be packaged are then guided along the lateral wall.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for merging a plurality of separate streams of packaged goods into a main flow, wherein each stream of packaged goods is conveyed on an input conveyor to merge with the main flow in the region of the input opening of the input conveyor, And the transport continues on the main conveyor in the main flow, with at least one side wall delimiting the main flow laterally. Background technique [0002] In large parcel centres, logistics centers or centers for goods transshipment as well as in luggage transport, a large number of parcels, goods bundles, pieces of luggage, etc. which are unevenly and unorganized relative to each other are transported into the transport goods flow middle. Since not all transported goods have the same origin or the same destination, the streams of transported goods from different sources are merged in the main flow, and the main flow is then divided again to continue the transport to different de...
