Embodiment Construction

[0016] Reference below Figure 1~5 The article merging control method according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

[0017] The conveying equipment adopting the article merging control method of the present invention includes a trunk line (an example of a main conveying path) 2 for conveying articles 1 and an inbound line (sub-conveyor) that merges articles 1 onto this trunk line 2 in multiple rows (4 rows in the figure) Road example) 3 (3A, 3B, 3C, 3D).

[0018] Trunk 2 consists of a roller transport mechanism. In the trunk line 2, an upstream passing sensor 5 is provided upstream of the confluence point of the four rows of inbound lines 3. The upstream pass sensor 5 is used to detect the length in the conveying direction when the article 1 is conveyed by the trunk line 2, and is composed of a photoelectric sensor. A rotary encoder 7 is connected to the drive motor 6 of this roller conveyor.

[0019] The articles 1 conveyed through the trunk line 2 are us...

Abstract

The article merging control method is to reserve an empty interval (segmentation interval S) of a predetermined length or more between the loads of the conveyed article 1 or between the articles 1 on the main line 2 on the incoming line 3 where the article 1 is stored. Idle interval, when this idle interval is close to the confluence location of the reserved incoming goods line 3, the incoming goods line 3 will cut the article 1 corresponding to the length of the reserved empty interval to the main line 2. According to this method, the idle interval on the main line 2 that does not transport the item 1 can be reduced to improve the merging efficiency. In addition, by reducing the storage capacity of the item 1 on the incoming line 3, the waiting time for the item 1 to be put into the incoming line 3 can be reduced, thereby improving the efficiency. Efficiency of input work.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a confluence control method for conveying and confluent articles from multiple auxiliary conveying paths to a main conveying path. Background technique [0002] A well-known method for controlling the confluence of items is to allocate a certain idle interval on the main conveying road to the auxiliary conveying path every time a certain period of time passes, so that the items stored on the auxiliary conveying path merge to the idle interval on the main conveying road. The above-mentioned idle interval is the interval between items or items (hereinafter referred to as loads) generated on the main conveying road. This merging control method takes the above-mentioned certain idle interval as a certain length when the items stored on the auxiliary conveying road are full, and is a distribution that has nothing to do with the amount of items stored on the auxiliary conveying road. [0003] Another well-known item merging control method...
