Rail-type express parcel sorting device and method

Abstract

The invention relates to a rail-type express parcel sorting device and method. The device comprises multiple trolleys, a rail and a main controller, wherein the multiple trolleys are used for conveying to-be-sorted express parcels; the rail comprises multiple sections of steel rails, and the multiple sections of steel rails form M lines in a transverse direction and N lines in a longitudinal direction; each section of steel rail is provided with a positioning circuit module, and the positioning circuit modules are used for acquiring position information of the multiple trolleys during running; and the main controller is connected with the multiple trolleys and the rail, and is used for planning running routes for the multiple trolleys according to unloading destinations of the express parcels, controlling the multiple trolleys to run on the running routes and controlling the multiple trolleys to unload the express parcels according to the position information of the multiple trolleys during running. According to the rail-type express parcel sorting device and method, the different express parcels are conveyed to the multiple different destinations and unloaded through the multiple trolleys, so that express parcel sorting is more accurate and efficient.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of express delivery sorting, in particular to a track-type express delivery sorting device and method. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of online shopping, the express delivery industry has entered a fast-track development mode. Tens of thousands of couriers enter the city every day, and the sorters classify the couriers by region and category, which consumes a lot of manpower and time costs. [0003] With the development of computer technology, automatic sorting robots or trolleys have appeared, which has improved the sorting efficiency, but there are problems such as inaccurate identification of drop-off ports, difficult positioning of trolleys, single route, strict requirements on room layout, and low efficiency. For example, the application number is "202010147624.1" and the name is "a smart car for automatic sorting of express delivery", in which, "both sides of the frame are eq...
