Flexible sorting method of swing arm sorting machine

Abstract

The invention discloses a flexible sorting method of a swing arm sorting machine. In the process that each swing arm swings from a static state to a maximum opening position, firstly accelerated swinging for a period of time is carried out, and then uniform-speed swinging for a period of time is carried out. According to the scheme of the flexible sorting method of the swing arm sorting machine, the swing arm control mode is adopted, the swing arm can be lifted to a large angular speed at a large angular acceleration, then uniform-speed swinging of the swing arm is carried out at the speed, atthe moment, the driving force borne by the swing arm is far smaller than the driving force needed during acceleration, and therefore according to the force transmission characteristic, the thrust exerted by the swing arm on a parcel can be reduced, and meanwhile, the swing arm swings at a constant speed after moving to the maximum speed, so that a conventional striking mode can be changed into asoft pushing mode, and the breakage rate of the parcel is greatly reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to logistics sorting equipment, in particular to a flexible sorting method for a swing arm sorter. Background technique [0002] Swing arm sorting is to set multiple swing arms and sorting grids on both sides of the main conveyor line. When the package moves to the swing arm corresponding to the designated route, the swing of the swing arm will hit the package on the main conveyor line. to the sorting grid corresponding to the swing arm. [0003] Various existing swing arm devices usually drive the swing arm to rotate around an axis through a transmission structure (such as a crank linkage mechanism, a gear transmission mechanism, a belt transmission mechanism, etc.) by a motor. In the conventional swing arm control method, the swing arm unloads the goods by hitting them. Due to the high impact force of the hitting, it is easy to cause damage to the package and reduce the safety of sorting. [0004] At the same time, when sortin...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

In the conventional swing arm control method, the swing arm unloads the goods by hitting them. Due to the high impact force of the hitting, it is easy to cause damage to the package and reduce the safety of sorting.

[0004] At the same time, when sorting with the swing arm, the packages need to enter the main conveying line one by one to ensure effective sorting. Usually, the packages are packaged one by one manually, which causes problems of high labor intensity and high labor cost.

[0005] Manually placing the package needs to effectively make the barcode on the package face the specified direction in order to obtain the route, which further increases the requirements for the packager, and it is easy to cause the package to be misplaced
