[0002] At present, the importance of logistics in the economy is increasingly reflected. Modern warehouses need to scan the barcodes on express parcels before shipping them out, which is convenient for classified transportation of express parcels and can also prevent express parcels from being mixed up. However, the existing barcode scanning equipment is difficult to detect some express parcels that have been scanned incorrectly or have not been scanned. They will be mixed with the express parcels that have been scanned correctly, adding a burden to the staff. Even if they are discovered, the equipment needs to be shut down to remove the express parcels that have been scanned incorrectly or have not been scanned, and then the equipment needs to be turned on for scanning, which reduces work efficiency.

When the second infrared ranging sensor detects that there is a courier below, the timer starts timing. When the code scanner scans the code correctly or incorrectly, or when the timing duration of the timer reaches a set value, the timer stops timing and is reset. When the code scanner scans the code incorrectly or the timing duration of the timer reaches a set value and the code scanner has not completed scanning, the screening mechanism works to sort out the courier. The screening mechanism is arranged at the discharge end of the conveyor belt. The code scanning device also comprises a rotating mechanism for driving the screening mechanism to rotate from a first position to a second position. When the screening mechanism is in the first position, the screening mechanism is parallel to the conveyor belt; when the screening mechanism is in the second position, the screening mechanism is perpendicular to the conveyor belt.
[0006] Preferably, the screening mechanism includes a rotating plate, two rollers rotatably connected to the two ends of the bottom of the rotating plate and a conveyor belt mounted on the two rollers, and a third motor for driving the rollers to rotate is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating plate near one end.
[0007] Preferably, the rotating mechanism includes an L-shaped support frame fixedly connected to one side of the conveyor belt, a rotating plate is rotatably connected to the bottom of the L-shaped support frame at one end away from the third motor, and a second motor for driving the rotating plate to rotate is fixedly connected to the top of the L-shaped support frame.

[0009] Preferably, a first gantry is fixedly connected to the conveyor belt between the feed end of the conveyor belt and the barcode scanner, and two first infrared ranging sensors for detecting the position of the express on the conveyor belt are provided on the side of the first gantry away from the barcode scanner. The two first infrared ranging sensors are respectively arranged on both sides of the conveyor belt, and an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the express to the middle of the conveyor belt is provided between the first infrared ranging sensor and the first gantry.
[0010] Preferably, a brush is movably connected under the first gantry; the adjustment mechanism includes a cylinder, a push plate and fixed plates symmetrically arranged on both sides of the conveyor belt, the fixed plate is fixedly connected to the conveyor belt, the push plate is arranged on the side where the two fixed plates are close to each other, and the cylinder is fixedly connected to the side of the fixed plate away from the push plate, and the cylinder drives the push plate to move to push the express.

[0013] A logistics code scanning method specifically includes the following steps:
[0014] S1. Place the express with the barcode facing upwards at the discharge end of the conveyor belt. The express is transported forward and passes between the first infrared distance sensors on both sides of the conveyor belt. The two first infrared distance sensors detect the distance of the express respectively and transmit the signal to the controller. When the distance difference detected by the two first infrared distance sensors is greater than the preset value, the controller controls the cylinder at the first infrared distance sensor on the side with the smaller distance value to work, driving the push plate to move. When the express continues to be transported, the push plate pushes the express to the middle of the conveyor belt.
[0015] S2, the express is continuously transported to the bottom of the second infrared ranging sensor, the second infrared ranging sensor detects the height of the express, transmits a signal to the controller, the controller controls the first motor and the timer to work, the first motor drives the threaded rod to rotate, thereby driving the lifting block, the brush and the air guide pipe to rise and fall, so that the brush is placed on the top of the express, when the express continues to be transported, the brush can sweep away the dust on the barcode, and at the same time, the blower blows out air from the air blowing pipe, which can further blow away the dust on the barcode;
[0016] S3, express delivery continues:
[0017] When the barcode scanner correctly scans the express, it transmits the signal to the controller, which stops the timer and the express continues to be transported out from the discharge end of the conveyor belt.
[0018] When the barcode scanner scans the code incorrectly, it transmits a signal to the controller, controls the timer to stop working, and at the same time, the controller also controls the second motor to work, driving the rotating plate to rotate perpendicular to the conveyor belt. When the express continues to be transported to the conveyor belt position, the express squeezes the conveyor belt, and the pressure sensor detects the pressure and transmits the signal to the controller. The controller controls the third motor to rotate clockwise, driving the roller and the conveyor belt to rotate clockwise, and outputs the express from one side of the conveyor belt. At this time, the pressure sensor does not detect the pressure, and transmits the signal to the controller. The controller controls the second motor to work, and rotates the rotating plate in the opposite direction to be parallel to the conveyor belt.
[0019] When the timer reaches the set value, it means that the barcode scanner has scanned the express, and the timer transmits the signal to the controller. The controller controls the timer to stop working, and also controls the second motor to work, driving the turntable to rotate perpendicular to the conveyor belt. When the express continues to be transported to the conveyor belt position, the express squeezes the conveyor belt, and the pressure sensor detects the pressure and transmits the signal to the controller. The controller controls the third motor to rotate counterclockwise, driving the roller and the conveyor belt to rotate counterclockwise, and outputs the express from the other side of the conveyor belt. At this time, the pressure sensor does not detect the pressure, and then transmits the signal to the controller. The controller controls the second motor to work and rotate the turntable in the opposite direction parallel to the conveyor belt.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0021] 1. The logistics code scanning equipment and method, when the express is transported to the bottom of the second infrared ranging sensor, the second infrared ranging sensor transmits a signal to the controller, the controller controls the timer to work, the express continues to be transported on the conveyor belt and scanned by the scanner, when the scanner scans the code incorrectly or when the timer reaches the set value and the scanner still does not scan the code, the scanner transmits a signal to the controller, the controller controls the timer to stop working, and at the same time, the controller also controls the second motor to drive the rotating plate to rotate 90 degrees perpendicular to the conveyor belt. When the express continues to be transported to the conveyor belt position, the express that has scanned the code incorrectly or has not been scanned can be blocked and screened out.
[0022] 2. The logistics code scanning equipment and method, when the express with incorrect code scanning squeezes the conveyor belt, the pressure sensor detects the pressure and transmits the signal to the controller, the controller controls the third motor to rotate clockwise, drives the roller and the conveyor belt to rotate clockwise, and outputs the express from one side of the conveyor belt; when the express with unscanned code squeezes the conveyor belt, the pressure sensor detects the pressure and transmits the signal to the controller, the controller controls the third motor to rotate counterclockwise, drives the roller and the conveyor belt to rotate counterclockwise, and outputs the express from the other side of the conveyor belt. The express with incorrect code scanning and the express with unscanned code can be classified and transported, which is convenient for checking the reasons for incorrect code scanning. This process does not require the entire equipment to be shut down, and subsequent code scanning work can continue, which greatly improves work efficiency.
[0023] 3. For the logistics code scanning device and method, when the code is scanned incorrectly or the express delivery without code scanning is output from the conveyor belt, the pressure sensor does not detect the pressure at this time, and transmits the signal to the controller. The controller controls the second motor to rotate the turn plate 90 degrees in the opposite direction to be parallel to the conveyor belt, so as to facilitate the subsequent delivery of the express delivery with correct code scanning.

[0035] A second infrared ranging sensor 5, a barcode scanner 61 and a screening mechanism are arranged in sequence above the conveying direction, and also include a timer. When the second infrared ranging sensor 5 detects that there is a courier below, the timer starts timing. When the barcode scanner 61 scans the code correctly or incorrectly, or when the timing of the timer reaches a set value, the timer stops timing and is reset; when the barcode scanner 61 scans the code incorrectly or the timing of the timer reaches the set value and the barcode scanner has not completed scanning, the screening mechanism works to sort out the courier.
[0036] To further clean the dust on the express, please refer to Figure 3-Figure 4 A wind duct 45 is fixedly installed on one side of the lifting plate 41, and a plurality of blowing pipes 450 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the wind duct 45. A blower 47 is installed on the first gantry 40, and the blower 47 and the wind duct 45 are connected by a telescopic wind duct 46. The two ends of the wind duct 45 are closed, and a connecting end is opened on the side wall. One end of the telescopic wind duct 46 is connected to the connecting end of the wind duct 45 through a flange, and the other end of the telescopic wind duct 46 is connected to the air outlet end of the blower 47 through a flange. The dust on the express can be preliminarily cleaned by the brush 410, and the dust can be effectively blown away by blowing air from the blowing pipe 450 through the blower, thereby enhancing the cleaning effect and facilitating the subsequent barcode scanner 61 to scan and identify the barcode on the express.
[0037] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 The screening mechanism includes a rotating plate 80, two rollers 82 rotatably connected to the two ends of the bottom of the rotating plate 80, and a conveyor belt 81 for connecting the two rollers 82. A third motor 84 for driving the rollers 82 to rotate is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating plate 80 near one end.
[0038] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 5, and also includes a rotating mechanism for driving the screening mechanism to rotate from the first position to the second position, the rotating mechanism includes an L-shaped support frame 7 fixedly connected to one side of the conveyor belt 1, and the end of the rotating plate 80 away from the third motor 84 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the L-shaped support frame 7, and the top of the L-shaped support frame 7 is fixedly connected to a second motor 83 for driving the rotating plate 80 to rotate; when the screening mechanism is in the first position, the screening mechanism is parallel to the conveyor belt 1; when the screening mechanism is in the second position, the screening mechanism is perpendicular to the conveyor belt 1; during initial operation, the screening mechanism is in the first position.
[0039] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1-Figure 2 A second infrared ranging sensor 5 is fixedly connected to the first gantry 40 on one side close to the feeding end of the conveyor belt 1. The maximum ranging value of the second infrared ranging sensor 5 is just smaller than the distance from the second infrared ranging sensor 5 to the upper surface of the conveyor belt 1. When there is no express under the second infrared ranging sensor 5, the conveyor belt 1 will not interfere with the detection of the second infrared ranging sensor 5; the time it takes for the express to be transported from under the second infrared ranging sensor 5 to under the barcode scanner 61 is less than the set value.
[0040] In order to screen the express with abnormal code scanning, a pressure sensor is installed on the roller 82; when the screening mechanism is in the second position, when the express moves to the position of the conveyor belt 81, the third motor 84 works; when the express moves away from the conveyor belt 81, the third motor 84 stops working, and the second motor 83 works to drive the screening mechanism to rotate from the second position to the first position; the squeezing force of the conveyor belt 81 itself on the roller 82 is less than the minimum value of the pressure detected by the pressure sensor, and will not interfere with the pressure sensor.
[0041] See also Figure 1-Figure 2 A detection mechanism for detecting the position of the express on the conveyor belt 1 is provided on the side of the first gantry 40 away from the barcode scanner 61. The detection mechanism includes first infrared ranging sensors 2 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the conveyor belt 1. The maximum ranging value of the first infrared ranging sensor 2 is just smaller than the width of the conveyor belt 1, which can effectively avoid interference caused by the first infrared ranging sensor 2 when the staff walks by the two sides of the conveyor belt 1, thereby greatly improving the practicability of the device.
[0042] In order to facilitate the subsequent scanning of the express delivery; please refer to Figure 1-Figure 2An adjustment mechanism for adjusting the express to the middle of the conveyor belt 1 is provided between the detection mechanism and the first gantry 40; the adjustment mechanism includes a cylinder 31, a push plate 32 and fixed plates 30 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the conveyor belt 1, the fixed plates 30 are fixedly connected to the conveyor belt 1, the push plates 32 are arranged on the side where the two fixed plates 30 are close to each other, the cylinder 31 is fixedly connected to the side of the fixed plate 30 away from the push plate 32, and the cylinder 31 drives the push plate 32 to move and push the express; the cylinder 31 drives the push plate 32 to push the express to the middle of the conveyor belt, so that the express passes directly under the second infrared ranging sensor 5 and the barcode scanner 61, which is convenient for the express to be identified.
[0043] In order to facilitate the cleaning of express at different heights; please refer to Figure 3-Figure 4 The inner wall of the first gantry 40 is provided with a vertically arranged slide groove 400, and a vertically arranged threaded rod 43 is rotatably installed in the slide groove 400. A lifting block 42 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 43, and the lifting block 42 is slidably connected to the slide groove 400. One end of the lifting plate 41 is fixedly connected to the lifting block 42, and a first motor 44 for driving the threaded rod 43 to rotate is fixedly connected to the first gantry 40; starting the first motor 44 can drive the threaded rod 43 to rotate, so that the lifting block 42 and the lifting plate 41 can be lifted and lowered, thereby driving the brush 410 and the blowing pipe to lift and lower, so that the bottom end of the brush 410 contacts the upper surface of the express, and the express will be cleaned by the brush 410 during transportation, and the wind blown out of the blowing pipe can effectively blow away the dust on the express.
[0044] A logistics code scanning method specifically includes the following steps:
[0045] S1. The staff puts the express with the barcode facing upwards on the discharge end of the conveyor belt 1. The express is transported forward and passes between the first infrared distance sensors 2 on both sides of the conveyor belt 1. The two first infrared distance sensors 2 respectively detect the distance of the express and transmit the signal to the controller. When the difference in the distance detected by the two first infrared distance sensors 2 is greater than the preset value, the controller controls the cylinder 31 at the first infrared distance sensor 2 on the side with the smaller distance value to work, driving the push plate 32 to move. When the express continues to be transported, the push plate 32 pushes the express to the middle of the conveyor belt 1, so as to facilitate the subsequent barcode scanner to scan and identify the express. When the staff puts the express in a biased position, the express can be adjusted to normal in time, which is convenient for the express to scan the code normally.
[0046] S2, the express is continuously transported to the bottom of the second infrared ranging sensor 5, the second infrared ranging sensor 5 detects the height of the express, transmits the signal to the controller, the controller controls the first motor 44 and the timer to work, the first motor 44 drives the threaded rod 43 to rotate, thereby driving the lifting block 42, the brush 410 and the air duct 45 to move up and down, so that the brush 410 is placed on the top of the express, and when the express continues to be transported, the brush 410 can sweep away the dust on the barcode; by adjusting the height of the brush 410, it is convenient to clean the express at different heights, and at the same time, the blower 47 blows air out from the blowing pipe 450, which can further blow away the dust on the barcode;
[0047] S3, express delivery continues:
[0048] When the barcode scanner 61 correctly scans the express, it transmits a signal to the controller, controls the timer to stop working, and the express continues to be transported out from the discharge end of the conveyor belt;
[0049] When the barcode scanner 61 scans the barcode incorrectly, the signal is transmitted to the controller to control the timer to stop working. At the same time, the controller also controls the second motor 83 to work, driving the rotating plate 80 to rotate 90 degrees to be perpendicular to the conveyor belt 1. When the express continues to be transported to the position of the conveyor belt 81, the express squeezes the conveyor belt 81. The pressure sensor detects the pressure and transmits the signal to the controller. The controller controls the third motor 84 to rotate clockwise, driving the roller 82 and the conveyor belt 81 to rotate clockwise, and the express is output from one side of the conveyor belt 81. At this time, the pressure sensor does not detect the pressure, and transmits the signal to the controller. The controller controls the second motor 83 to work, and rotates the rotating plate 80 90 degrees in the opposite direction to be parallel to the conveyor belt 1.
[0050] When the timer reaches the set value, it means that the barcode scanner 61 has scanned the express, and the timer transmits the signal to the controller. The controller controls the timer to stop working, and also controls the second motor 83 to work, driving the rotating plate 80 to rotate 90 degrees perpendicular to the conveyor belt 1. When the express continues to be transported to the position of the conveyor belt 81, the express squeezes the conveyor belt 81, and the pressure sensor detects the pressure and transmits the signal to the controller. The controller controls the third motor 84 to rotate counterclockwise, driving the roller 82 and the conveyor belt 81 to rotate counterclockwise, and the express is output from the other side of the conveyor belt 81. At this time, the pressure sensor does not detect the pressure, and then transmits the signal to the controller. The controller controls the second motor 83 to work, and the rotating plate 80 is rotated 90 degrees in the opposite direction to be parallel to the conveyor belt 1; the express with scanning error and the express without scanning can be classified and transported, which is convenient for checking the cause. The express on the side of the scanning error can be concentrated to check whether the barcode is damaged; the express on the side of the unscanned code can be concentrated to check whether the barcode is not affixed or the barcode is not placed upward, so that the cause of the abnormal scanning can be found more quickly, which greatly improves the work efficiency.

When the express continues to be transported, the push plate (32) pushes the express to the middle of the conveyor belt (1); S2, the express is continuously transported to the bottom of the second infrared distance measuring sensor (5), the second infrared distance measuring sensor (5) detects the height of the express, and transmits a signal to the controller, the controller controls the first motor (44) and the timer to operate, the first motor (44) drives the threaded rod (43) to rotate, thereby driving the lifting block (42), the brush (410) and the air guide pipe (45) to move up and down, so that the brush (410) is placed on the top of the express, and when the express continues to be transported, the brush (410) sweeps away the dust on the barcode, and at the same time the blower (47) blows air out from the blowing pipe (450); S3, express delivery continues: When the barcode scanner (61) correctly scans the express, a signal is transmitted to the controller, which controls the timer to stop working, and the express continues to be conveyed out from the discharge end of the conveyor belt; When the barcode scanner (61) scans the barcode incorrectly, a signal is transmitted to the controller, and the control timer stops working. At the same time, the controller also controls the second motor (83) to work, driving the rotating plate (80) to rotate 90 degrees to be perpendicular to the conveyor belt (1). When the express continues to be transported to the position of the conveyor belt (81), the express squeezes the conveyor belt (81), and the pressure sensor detects the pressure and transmits the signal to the controller. The controller controls the third motor (84) to rotate clockwise, driving the roller (82) and the conveyor belt (81) to rotate clockwise, and the express is output from one side of the conveyor belt (81). The pressure sensor does not detect the pressure and transmits the signal to the controller. The controller controls the second motor (83) to work, and the rotating plate (80) is rotated 90 degrees in the opposite direction to be parallel to the conveyor belt (1). When the timer reaches the set value, it indicates that the barcode scanner (61) has scanned the express, and the timer transmits a signal to the controller. The controller controls the timer to stop working and also controls the second motor (83) to work, driving the rotating plate (80) to rotate 90 degrees to be perpendicular to the conveyor belt (1). When the express continues to be transported to the position of the conveyor belt (81), the express squeezes the conveyor belt (81). The pressure sensor detects pressure and transmits a signal to the controller. The controller controls the third motor (84) to rotate counterclockwise, driving the roller (82) and the conveyor belt (81) to rotate counterclockwise, and the express is output from the other side of the conveyor belt (81). The pressure sensor does not detect pressure and transmits a signal to the controller. The controller controls the second motor (83) to work, and rotates the rotating plate (80) 90 degrees in the opposite direction to be parallel to the conveyor belt (1).
