Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of sorting machines, and in particular relates to a discrete linear flip-plate sorting machine. Background Art
[0002] The automatic sorting system is an indispensable basic hardware for large and medium-sized logistics centers. After the barcode on the package is identified in cooperation with the industrial fast barcode reading equipment, the logistics package is transported to the shipping port corresponding to the barcode through the guide transmission mechanism, achieving efficient and fast automatic sorting effect. However, the current sorting system is mostly for parcels with a certain weight or volume, and it is often unable to effectively sort single light and thin letters and other goods. In particular, the current automatic sorting system is expensive and complex in structure, and it takes up a large area of site. For small and medium-sized logistics units, it is often unable to bear such a high automatic sorting cost; at present, most small and medium-sized logistics units cannot provide a large enough site area to install the automatic sorting system, so they have to use manual sorting. The high labor cost brings about lower sorting efficiency and higher sorting error rate, especially during the e-commerce promotion period. Due to the high pressure of logistics sorting, warehouse explosions often occur, and errors in manual sorting lead to logistics packages that cannot be delivered in time or are lost.
