[0001] This invention relates to the field of sorting equipment technology, and in particular to a convenient cross-border e-commerce sorting device. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, automated sorting systems are an essential facility for advanced distribution centers. They boast high sorting efficiency, typically handling 6,000-12,000 boxes of goods per hour; automated sorting machines are a key factor in improving logistics and distribution efficiency. This system has become an indispensable part of large and medium-sized logistics centers in developed countries.
[0003] Currently, there are certain drawbacks in cross-border e-commerce sorting equipment. When transporting goods, it is necessary to first classify and sort items of different weights. However, the existing sorting is done manually, which requires weighing the items and placing them in designated locations. This sorting is inefficient, labor-intensive, and has a certain impact.
[0004] To address this, we designed a convenient cross-border e-commerce sorting device. Summary of the Invention

The rotating rods and through holes are coaxially arranged. A second pulley is provided at the end of the first rotating rod on the left side. The rotating rod and the second pulley are coaxially fixedly connected. A transmission device is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the transport frame. The transmission device includes a second motor, a first pulley, and a first transmission belt. The first pulley is fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor. The first transmission belt is connected to the second pulley through the first pulley fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor on the outer side wall of the transport frame.
[0009] Preferably, the rotating rod is fixedly connected to a conveyor roller, the conveyor roller is arranged in a ring, the outer wall of the rotating rod is in close contact with the inner wall of the conveyor roller, and a conveyor belt is rotatably connected to the outer wall of the conveyor roller, the conveyor belt is arranged in a ring, and the inner wall of the conveyor belt is in close contact with the outer side of the conveyor roller.
[0010] Preferably, the sorting boxes are arranged side by side on the same plane, and each sorting box has a number of fixing blocks on its top. The fixing blocks are distributed on the top of the inner side wall of the sorting box, and the fixing blocks are arranged on the same side wall and at the same horizontal plane. Each fixing block has a through hole, and a rotating rod is rotatably connected in the through hole. The rotating rod passes through the fixing blocks at both ends and is fixedly connected to a conveying plate.
[0011] Preferably, the conveying plate includes a conveying frame, a third pulley, a magnet hole, a groove, and a conveying rod. One end of the conveying frame is provided with a through hole penetrating the side wall. The rotating rod passes through the through hole and is fixedly connected to the conveying frame. The outer side wall of the rotating rod is tightly fitted with the inner side wall of the through hole. The conveying frame is U-shaped and has a base plate at the bottom. Multiple conveying rods are provided in the U-shaped hole of the conveying frame. One end of the multiple conveying rods is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped hole. The other end of the conveying rods penetrates the side wall of the conveying frame. The third pulley is fixedly connected to the end of each of the multiple conveying rods penetrating the side wall of the conveying frame. Multiple limiting grooves are provided at the top of the other end of the conveying frame. Multiple magnet holes are provided on the right outer side wall of the conveying frame.
[0012] Preferably, a first motor is provided on the rear sidewall of each of the sorting boxes. A through hole is provided on the rear sidewall of the conveying plate. The inner sidewall of the through hole is coaxially and fixedly connected to the outer sidewall of the output end of the first motor.

[0014] Preferably, the number of magnets placed in the magnet holes of the conveyor plate is determined by the distance between the conveyor plate and the conveyor belt. The closer the conveyor plate is to the conveyor belt, the more magnets are placed, and the farther the conveyor plate is from the conveyor belt, the fewer magnets are placed. A spring is provided on the inner side wall of the sorting box. The spring has an arc-shaped design. One end of the spring is fixedly connected to the inner side wall of the sorting box, and the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the conveyor plate.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:
[0016] 1. This invention employs a convenient cross-border e-commerce sorting device. During use, through the setting of a rotating rod, conveyor plate, conveyor belt, spring, and magnetic hole, the rotating rod can control the closing of the conveyor plate, thereby facilitating the sorting and collection of slipping items.

The setting of the arc spring can play a role in resetting after the conveyor plate falls. The operation is simple, which can improve sorting efficiency and reduce human labor.
[0017] 2. This invention uses a combination of springs and magnetic holes, which can classify items according to their weight. When different numbers of magnets are placed in the magnetic holes, different magnetic forces are generated. At this time, the conveyor plate is in a horizontal state due to the magnetic force and the supporting force of the spring. When the weight of the object passing by is less than the supporting force of the magnetic force and the spring, the conveyor plate will not move. When the weight of the object passing by is greater than the supporting force of the magnetic force and the spring, the conveyor plate will rotate downward under the action of the object's weight, sliding the items on the conveyor plate into the sorting box.

[0023] Reference Figure 1-4 A convenient cross-border e-commerce sorting device includes multiple sorting boxes 1 and a support base 15. Each sorting box 1 is equipped with a door 16, which is connected to the sorting box 1 via hinges. Each door 16 has a handle 17. Support rods 14 are located at the four corners of the top of the support base 15. One end of each support rod 14 is fixedly connected to the support base 15, and the other end is fixedly connected to a transport frame 6. The transport frame 6 has a hollow, U-shaped design. Each of the four corners of the transport frame 6 is fixedly connected to a support rod 14. Multiple through holes are provided on both side walls of the transport frame 6. Rotating rods 7 are rotatably connected to each through hole, and the rotating rods 7 and the through holes are coaxially aligned. A second pulley 13 is located at the end of the first rotating rod 7 on the left side, and the rotating rod 7 and the second pulley 13 are fixedly connected coaxially. A transmission device is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the transport frame 6. The transmission device includes a second motor 10 and a first pulley 11. The first transmission belt 12 and the first pulley 11 are fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 10. The first transmission belt 12 is connected to the first pulley 11 and the second pulley 13, which are fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor 10 on the outer wall of the transport frame 6. This arrangement allows the second motor 10 to drive the first pulley 11 to rotate, which in turn drives the second pulley 13 to rotate. The second pulley 13 then drives the rotating rod 7 to rotate. The rotating rod 7 is fixedly connected to a conveyor roller 9, which is circular in shape. The outer wall of the rotating rod 7 is in close contact with the inner wall of the conveyor roller 9. The outer wall of the conveyor roller 9 is rotatably connected to a conveyor belt 8, which is also circular in shape. The inner wall of the conveyor belt 8 is in close contact with the outer wall of the conveyor roller 9. This arrangement allows the rotation of the rotating rod 7 to drive the rotation of the conveyor roller 9 and the horizontal movement of the conveyor belt 8, thereby moving the items placed on the conveyor belt 8.
[0024] Multiple sorting boxes 1 are arranged side by side on the same plane. Each sorting box 1 has multiple fixing blocks 5 on its top. The fixing blocks 5 are distributed on the top of the inner side wall of the sorting box 1. The fixing blocks 5 are set on the same side wall and are on the same horizontal plane. Each fixing block 5 has a through hole. A rotating rod 19 is rotatably connected in the through hole. The rotating rod 19 passes through the fixing blocks 5 at both ends and is fixedly connected to a conveying plate 4. The conveying plate 4 includes a conveying frame 20, a third pulley 21, a magnet hole 22, a groove 23, and a conveying rod 27. One end of the conveying frame 20 has a through hole that passes through the side wall. The rotating rod 19 passes through the through hole and is fixedly connected to the conveying frame 20. The outer side wall of the rotating rod 19 is tightly fitted with the inner side wall of the through hole. This arrangement of the rotating rod 19 can control the conveying plate 4 to close, thereby facilitating the sorting and collection of slipping items.
[0025] The conveyor frame 20 is U-shaped and has a base plate at the bottom. Multiple conveying rods 27 are installed inside the U-shaped opening of the conveyor frame 20. One end of each conveying rod 27 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the U-shaped opening, and the other end of each conveying rod 27 passes through the side wall of the conveyor frame 20. The conveying rods 27 facilitate the movement of objects on the conveyor plate 4. A third pulley 21 is fixedly connected to the end of each conveying rod 27 that passes through the side wall of the conveyor frame 20. A first motor 3 is installed on the rear side wall of each of the multiple sorting boxes 1. A through hole is opened on the rear side wall of the conveyor plate 4. The inner wall is coaxially fixedly connected to the outer wall of the output end of the first motor 3. The output end of the first motor 3 is fixedly connected to the fourth pulley 26. The fourth pulley 26 is rotatably connected to the second transmission belt 24. The fourth pulley 26 is rotatably connected to the third pulley 21 on the conveyor frame 20 through the second transmission belt 24. This arrangement allows the first motor 3 to drive the second transmission belt 24, the fourth pulley 26 and the third pulley 21 to move, thereby driving the rotation of the conveyor rod 27 and causing the object to move on the conveyor plate 4.
[0026] Each of the rear sidewalls of the sorting boxes 1 has a slot 18. The slot 18 is arc-shaped and its center is located at the upper left corner of the rear sidewall of the sorting box 1. The slot 18 is slidably connected to the output end of the first motor 3. The inner sidewall of the slot 18 is tightly fitted to the outer sidewall of the output end of the first motor 3. This arrangement allows the first motor 3 to move along with the conveyor plate 4 as the conveyor plate 4 moves downward.
[0027] Multiple limiting grooves 23 are provided at the top of the other end of the conveyor frame 20, and multiple limiting blocks 25 are provided in the sorting box 1. The distance between the multiple limiting blocks 25 is equal to the distance between the limiting grooves 23 provided at the top of the other end of the conveyor frame 20. The radius of the limiting block 25 is less than or equal to the radius of the limiting groove 23. This setting of the limiting blocks 25 and the limiting grooves 23 can play a limiting role when the conveyor plate 4 moves upward to reset, preventing the conveyor plate 4 from not being on the same horizontal plane as the conveyor belt 8 after moving upward.
[0028] Multiple magnet holes 22 are provided on the right outer wall of the conveyor frame 20. When different numbers of magnets are placed in the magnet holes 22, different magnitudes of magnetic force are generated. At this time, the conveyor plate 4 is in a horizontal state due to the magnetic force and the supporting force of the spring 2. When the weight of the object passing by is less than the supporting force of the magnetic force and the spring 2, the conveyor plate 4 will not move. When the weight of the object passing by is greater than the supporting force of the magnetic force and the spring 2, the conveyor plate 4 will rotate downward under the action of the object's gravity, sliding the items on the conveyor plate 4 into the sorting box 1. The number of magnets placed in the magnet holes 22 of the conveyor plate 4 is determined by the distance between the conveyor plate 4 and the conveyor belt 8. The closer the conveyor plate 4 is to the conveyor belt 8, the more magnets are placed, and the farther the conveyor plate 4 is from the conveyor belt 8, the fewer magnets are placed. This is designed to prevent the magnetic force and the supporting force of the spring 2 on the nearby conveyor plate 4 from being too small, causing all the items on the conveyor plate 4 to be placed in the same sorting box 1, making it impossible to classify.
[0029] A spring 2 is provided on the inner wall of the sorting box 1. The spring 2 has an arc-shaped design. One end of the spring 2 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the sorting box 1, and the other end of the spring 2 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the conveyor plate 4. The arc-shaped spring can play a role in resetting after the conveyor plate falls.
[0030] The working principle of this invention is as follows: The items to be sorted are placed on the conveyor belt 8. The rotating rod 7, the conveyor belt 8, the conveyor roller 9, the second motor 10, the first pulley 11, the first transmission belt 12, and the second pulley 13 drive the items to move towards the conveyor plate 4. When the items move to the first conveyor plate 4, the first motor 3, the second transmission belt 24, and the fourth pulley 26 drive the items to move on the conveyor rod 27. When the weight of the passing object is less than the magnetic force and the supporting force of the spring 2, the conveyor plate 4 will not move. When the weight of the passing object is greater than the magnetic force and the supporting force of the spring 2, the conveyor plate 4 rotates downward under the action of the object's gravity, and the items on the conveyor plate 4 slide into the sorting box 1 to achieve sorting of items according to weight.

Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in the present invention, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of the present invention, should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
