The received goods will be sorted and classified at the logistics sorting center or express delivery point. However, when the goods are sorted by hand, the handheld device is often unable to recognize the QR code or barcode on the package because the distance between the package and the handheld device is not appropriate. It is necessary for the handheld device to keep trying aimlessly before it can be recognized. Therefore, the speed of sorting goods is reduced. Summary of the invention

[0003] Based on this, in order to solve the above technical problems, an intelligent cargo sorting system is provided to solve the problem that the distance between packages placed in the prior art is not appropriate, thereby reducing the cargo sorting speed.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0020] Figure 1 An architecture diagram of an intelligent cargo sorting system is provided for one embodiment of the utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model more clear, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.

[0022] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, a smart cargo sorting system is provided, the system comprising: an infrared sensor, a camera, a first processor, a second processor, a reminder unit, and a display screen;

[0023] The output end of the infrared sensor is connected to the input end of the first processor, the first output end of the first processor is connected to the input end of the second processor, and the second output end is connected to the input end of the reminder unit;

[0024] The infrared sensor is used to obtain the distance between the infrared sensor and the goods and output a distance detection signal; the first processor is used to output an image acquisition trigger signal to the second processor when the received distance detection signal is within a preset distance range, and the first processor is also used to output different reminder signals to the reminder unit when the received distance detection signal is greater than or less than the preset distance range;

[0025] The second processor is connected to the camera, and an output end of the second processor is connected to the display screen;

[0026] After receiving the image acquisition trigger signal, the second processor controls the camera to capture the QR code or barcode on the package and upload it, and identifies the QR code or barcode on the package, and uploads the identified corresponding information to the display screen for display.

[0027] Specifically, when the first processor determines that the distance detection signal is greater than or less than a preset range, it will output different reminder signals to the reminder unit. For example, under the premise that the reminder unit is a buzzer, the length of the sound can be used to represent that the distance detection signal is greater than or less than the preset range, and the number of sounds emitted can be used to represent that the distance detection signal is greater than or less than the preset range, that is, one sound represents that the package is smaller than the preset range, and two sounds represent that it is greater than the preset range.

[0028] The first processor may also be directly connected to the display screen, and the display screen may be used to display whether the detection signal is greater than or less than a preset range, so that the user can directly view it through the display screen.

[0029] After the first processor recognizes the QR code or barcode of the package captured by the camera, the recognized information, such as the address, is sent to the display screen for display so that it can be placed in the corresponding position.

[0030] In the above-mentioned intelligent cargo sorting system, an infrared sensor is used to detect the distance between the package and the camera. When the distance detection signal is greater than or less than a preset range, different reminder signals are output to the reminder unit. The reminder unit uses different methods to remind the user to place the package far or near, so that the user can quickly and correctly adjust the position. After the user places the package correctly, an image acquisition signal is sent to control the camera to quickly capture the QR code image of the package. Therefore, through the system of the utility model, users can quickly place the package in the appropriate position, improving the efficiency of cargo sorting.

[0031] At the same time, the camera is activated for identification only after the infrared sensor is used to measure that the goods are placed in the appropriate position, so that the camera is not in standby mode when collecting images, reducing energy consumption.

[0032] In one embodiment, the system further comprises: a light sensor, a third processor, and a lighting device;

[0033] The input end of the light sensor is connected to the third output end of the first processor, the output end of the light sensor is connected to the input end of the third processor, and the output end of the third processor is connected to the lighting device;

[0034] The first processor is also used to output a light detection signal to the light sensor after receiving the distance detection signal; the light sensor is used to obtain the light intensity and upload it to the third processor when receiving the light detection signal; the third processor is used to control the lighting device to turn on when the received light intensity is not within a preset intensity range.

[0035] Specifically, after the first processor receives the distance detection signal sent by the infrared sensor for the first time, it controls the light sensor to collect light intensity, and if the light intensity is not within the preset intensity range, controls the lighting device to turn on, thereby preventing the light from being too weak and affecting the camera's image collection.

[0036] In one embodiment, the system further includes a battery, and the battery is connected to the infrared sensor, the camera, the first processor, the second processor, the reminder unit, the display screen, the light sensor, the third processor, and the lighting device, respectively.

[0037] In one embodiment, the infrared sensor, the camera and the light sensor are arranged side by side.

[0038] In one embodiment, the lighting device is an LED lamp.

[0039] In one embodiment, the infrared sensor has a model of Sharp GP2Y0A02YK0F.

[0040] In one embodiment, the reminder unit is a buzzer.

[0041] Specifically, the reminder unit can also be a voice prompting device that emits different voices for prompting. The reminder unit includes but is not limited to the above content and can also be designed according to needs.

[0042] The technical features of the above embodiments may be combined arbitrarily. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0043] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
