Automatic sorting equipment and control method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses automatic sorting equipment and a control method thereof, and relates to the technical field of warehouse logistics. In one specific implementation mode of the equipment, a goods recognition and pickup device rotating on a rotatable suspension device can push target goods to be in an inclined state through a telescopic pushing support, mechanical arms are adjusted to be in an inclined state, so that clamping jaws of the mechanical arms are used for supporting the bottoms of the target goods, and after the target goods are successfully picked up, the target goods are recovered to be horizontal so as to complete picking up of the target goods. A transmission device drives the rotatable suspension device to rotate, and therefore the target goods picked up by the goods recognition and pickup device are sorted to specified sorting positions. Manual operation can be simulated to reduce manual intervention, unmanned sorting is achieved, many-to-many automatic sorting can be achieved, goods flow at multiple starting point positions can be transferred to multiple ending points, the sorting starting and stopping positions are dynamically and flexibly set, manual adjustment of goods placement is not needed, and automatic goods placement is achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computer technology, in particular to an automatic sorting device and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] Existing automatic sorting equipment is all based on multiple sets of conveyor belts for automatic sorting. Place the goods to be sorted at the starting position of the sorting, and the goods will automatically move on the conveyor belt. When the goods move to the intersection node of the conveyor belt, the sensor will identify the label information of the goods, and then control the flow of the goods. There will be multiple control nodes in the sorting process, until all the goods have been transferred to the final card position for sorting, the entire sorting process ends. [0003] In the course of realizing the present invention, the inventor finds that there are at least the following problems in the prior art: [0004] The existing sorting technology requires a lot of manual intervent...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] The existing sorting technology requires a lot of manual intervention in the process of picking up, identifying, and placing the goods, which cannot realize unmanned sorting, and can only realize the one-to-many sorting process, that is, the flow of goods at the starting point of one entrance is diverted. Multiple destinations, in addition, the start and end positions of sorting cannot be changed dynamically and flexibly, and goods of different sizes need to be placed separately at the destination position, and the placed goods need to be moved to the temporary storage area for transportation
