[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of logistics, and in particular to a logistics scanning and sorting device. Background Art
[0002] When logistics is being transported, the information and location of the logistics items are recorded and tracked through the logistics information sheet. When the logistics are delivered to the logistics transfer station, the logistics (already with outer packaging boxes and logistics sheets on the packaging boxes) will be sorted according to the area to which they are sent. During the sorting process, the logistics are uniformly separated and transmitted in sequence through the main conveyor belt. The side of the main conveyor belt is connected to multiple secondary conveyor belts, and each secondary conveyor belt corresponds to an area. When the logistics items in the same area are transported by the main conveyor belt, they reach the secondary conveyor belt at the corresponding area position and are pushed onto the secondary conveyor belt, so that the logistics items in the same area are transported and stacked at the end of the secondary conveyor belt. The sorter scans and records the logistics items transported at the end of the secondary conveyor belt, and stacks them one by one on the pallet by hand. Finally, the entire stack of goods stacked on the pallet is wrapped with packing tape.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0033] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Generally, the components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the drawings here can be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0034] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the invention claimed for protection, but merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0035] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters denote similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, further definition and explanation thereof is not required in subsequent drawings.
[0036] In the above description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "one side", "the other side", etc. indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship in which the product of the invention is usually placed when in use, which is only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present invention. In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish the description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0037] In addition, the term "same" does not mean that the parts must be absolutely the same, but slight differences are allowed. The term "vertical" only means that the positional relationship between the parts is more vertical than "parallel", and does not mean that the structure must be completely vertical, but can be slightly tilted.
[0038] In the prior art, the outer packaging of logistics items is usually a packaging box made of corrugated paper, which is a regular hexagonal cube or rectangular structure. When the logistics transfer station sorts the logistics items packed in the packaging box, a logistics list will be attached to one side of the packaging box. The distribution area of the logistics item is determined by the logistics list, and the logistics items in the same distribution area are sorted together for unified distribution. During the sorting process, each logistics item is uniformly separated and transmitted in sequence through the main conveyor belt. The side of the main conveyor belt is connected to multiple secondary conveyor belts, and each secondary conveyor belt corresponds to an area. When the logistics items in the same area are conveyed by the main conveyor belt, they are pushed onto the secondary conveyor belt after reaching the secondary conveyor belt at the corresponding area position, so that the logistics items in the same area are conveyed and stacked at the end of the secondary conveyor belt. The sorter scans and records the logistics items conveyed at the end of the secondary conveyor belt, and stacks them one by one on the pallet. Finally, the whole stack of goods stacked on the pallet is wrapped with packing tape, and then they can be uniformly distributed.
[0039] The present invention provides a logistics scanning and sorting device, which mainly improves the specific conveying method of a secondary conveyor belt, reduces the need for sorters to scan and record logistics items at the tail of the secondary conveyor belt and manually stack the logistics items on a pallet, and improves sorting efficiency.
[0040] See also Figure 1-Figure 9 The present invention provides a technical solution: a logistics scanning and sorting device, comprising a secondary conveyor belt 1 and a scanner 2 installed above the secondary conveyor belt 1, and also comprising a supporting platform and a pushing conveyor belt 7, the supporting platform is used to support the tray 6 on the plane where the discharge end of the secondary conveyor belt 1 is located, the pushing conveyor belt 7 extends along the discharge direction of the secondary conveyor belt 1, and one end is located above the discharge end of the secondary conveyor belt 1, and the other end extends above the supporting platform, and at least one pushing assembly 8 is installed on the belt surface of the pushing conveyor belt 7, each pushing assembly 8 includes a pushing rod 81 fixedly connected to the pushing conveyor belt 7 at both ends, a pushing plate 82 rotatably connected to the middle end of the pushing rod 81 at one end, and a pushing torsion spring 83 sleeved on the pushing rod 81, and the two ends of the pushing torsion spring 83 are respectively fixedly connected to the pushing rod 81 and the pushing plate 82.
[0041] During the logistics sorting process, the tray 6 is first pre-placed on the support platform, and then the various logistics pieces sent to the same area are input in turn from the feed end of the secondary conveyor belt 1. During the input, the label of each logistics piece faces upward. During the continuous transmission by the secondary conveyor belt 1, the scanner 2 scans and records the label. At the same time, the pushing conveyor belt 7 is started, and the pushing conveyor belt 7 drives each pushing component 8 to move in a circular cyclic trajectory. The rotating pushing component 8 rotates from the discharge end of the secondary conveyor belt 1 toward the direction of the tray 6, driving the pushing plate 82 to push the logistics pieces transmitted at the discharge end of the secondary conveyor belt 1 and push them onto the tray 6. At this time, the sorter only needs to place the logistics pieces on the tray 6, and there is no need to manually scan and record the logistics pieces on the secondary conveyor belt 1, and stack them one by one on the tray 6 by hand, thereby improving the technical problems of manual sorting of logistics pieces in the prior art, such as high labor intensity, low sorting efficiency, and easy scanning and recording errors. In the process of pushing the logistics parts through the push plate 82, when the push plate 82 encounters resistance from the logistics parts, the push plate 82 overcomes the torsion of the push torsion spring 83 and adaptively rotates to prevent the push plate 82 from getting stuck.
[0042] A plurality of insertion holes 61 are provided on the top of the support platform, so that the pallet 6 can be forked away by inserting the fork plate of a forklift into the insertion holes 61 .
[0043] See also Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The push conveyor belt 7 includes a push frame 71, a main push roller 72 with both ends rotatably connected to the push frame 71, a slave push roller 73 with both ends rotatably connected to the push frame 71, two annular push belts 74, and a push motor 75 with an output shaft coaxially fixedly connected to one end of the main push roller 72; the two annular push belts 74 are both sleeved on the main push roller 72 and the slave push roller 73, and are respectively located at both ends of the main push roller 72 and the slave push roller 73, and are simultaneously tensioned by the main push roller 72 and the slave push roller 73. The two ends of the push rod 81 of each push assembly 8 are respectively fixedly connected to the two push belts 74.
[0044] When each pushing assembly 8 is driven by the pushing conveyor belt 7 to move in a circular cyclic trajectory, the pushing motor 75 is started and driven to rotate, so that the two tensioned pushing belts 74 rotate, driving each pushing assembly 8 to rotate synchronously.
[0045] On the basis of the above embodiment, the push conveyor belt 7 also includes a plurality of support rollers 76, and the plurality of support rollers 76 are located on the same plane as the main push roller 72 and the slave push roller 73, and both ends of each support roller 76 are rotatably connected to the push frame 71, and each support roller 76 is located on the inner side of the two push belts 74 and abuts against the upper and lower belt surfaces of the push belts 74 to support the two push belts 74, thereby forming support for the push assembly 8, reducing the phenomenon of weakness of the push plate 82 in pushing the logistics parts.
[0046] Figure 8 In FIG. 1 , the two push belts 74 are shown to rotate in a clockwise direction.
[0047] See also Figure 1-Figure 7 In this embodiment: the supporting platform includes a base 3 and a supporting frame 4 slidably connected to the base 3 along a direction perpendicular to the conveying direction of the secondary conveyor belt 1, the base 3 is equipped with a transverse linear driving member 31, the driving end of the transverse linear driving member 31 is connected to the supporting frame 4, and the supporting frame 4 is used to place the tray 6.
[0048] When each logistics piece is continuously pushed onto the pallet 6 by the pushing plate 82, after each logistics piece is arranged in a row, the support frame 4 and the pallet 6 can be pushed to move simultaneously in a direction perpendicular to the conveying direction of the secondary conveyor belt 1 by starting the transverse linear drive member 31, so that the next logistics piece pushed by the pushing plate 82 is arranged in another adjacent row, and so on, until multiple logistics pieces are arranged in multiple rows and a layer of logistics pieces is formed on the pallet 6 to improve the sorting efficiency of logistics pieces; at this time, the sorter only needs to push the next row of logistics pieces on the pallet 6 so that the two rows of logistics pieces are stacked tightly against each other.
[0049] On the basis of the above embodiment, at least two slide rails are arranged in parallel on the base 3, and the lower end of the support frame 4 is adapted to and slidably connected to each of the slide rails.
[0050] The transverse linear drive member 31 may specifically be a cylinder, an electric cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, a linear motor, a screw-nut mechanism, etc. In the figure, a cylinder is shown.
[0051] See also Figure 4-Figure 7 In this embodiment: the support platform also includes a vertical linear driving member 5 installed on the support frame 4 and a storage rack 51 which is transmission-connected to the driving end of the vertical linear driving member 5, and the storage rack 51 is used to place the tray 6.
[0052] When each logistics piece is continuously pushed onto the pallet 6 by the pushing plate 82 and a layer of logistics pieces is formed, the vertical linear drive member 5 can be started, and the vertical linear drive member 5 drives the rack 51 and the pallet 6 to move downward at the same time to carry out the stacking operation of the next layer of logistics pieces. Similarly, a pile of logistics pieces is stacked on the pallet 6 to improve the sorting effect of logistics pieces.
[0053] When stacking multiple layers of logistics items, the sorter can simultaneously wrap the packaging film tape.
[0054] A plurality of insertion holes 61 are opened on the top of the storage rack 51 .
[0055] The vertical linear drive member 5 can be specifically a cylinder, an electric cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, a linear motor, a screw-nut mechanism, etc. The figure shows a screw-nut mechanism, and a plurality of vertical limit rods 42 are vertically slidably connected to the support frame 4, and the upper ends of the plurality of vertical limit rods 42 are fixedly connected to the lower side of the bottom plate 511 of the rack 51 to limit and enable the rack 51 to move only in the forward direction.
[0056] See also Figure 6-Figure 7 In this embodiment: the storage rack 51 includes a bottom plate 511 whose lower side is transmission-connected to the driving end of the vertical linear driving member 5, a storage plate 512 whose lower side is rotationally connected to the upper side of the bottom plate 511, and a plurality of support rods 513 which are arranged at intervals and whose lower ends are fixedly connected to the upper side of the storage plate 512. Each support rod 513 is also used to support the tray 6, and the center point of the board surface formed by each support rod 513 is located on the rotation axis of the storage plate 512.
[0057] While the storage rack 51 and the tray 6 are driven downward simultaneously by the vertical linear drive member 5 to stack the next layer of logistics items, force can be applied to the storage plate 512 to cause the storage plate 512, the support rods 513 and the tray 6 to rotate simultaneously, such as rotating 90°, so that the stacking direction of the logistics items stacked in the latter layer is opposite to the stacking direction of the logistics items in the previous layer, thereby improving the structural strength of the stacked logistics items.
[0058] In this embodiment, the support rods 513 are distributed in an array to form a plurality of insertion holes 61 .
[0059] On the basis of the above embodiment, an annular groove 5111 is provided on the upper side of the bottom plate 511, and an annular plate 5112 whose lower end is adapted to and rotatably connected to the annular groove 5111 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the storage plate 512, and the axes of the annular groove 5111 and the annular plate 5112 coincide with the rotation axis of the storage plate 512. The storage plate 512 is rotatably installed by the annular plate 5112 being rotatably connected to the annular groove 5111.
[0060] Furthermore, a plurality of balls 5113 are rotatably connected to the lower end of the ring plate 5112 , and the balls 5113 abut against the bottom of the ring groove 5111 to form rolling friction, thereby achieving smooth rotation of the storage plate 512 .
[0061] See also Figure 6-Figure 7In this embodiment: an arc groove 5121 is formed through the storage plate 512, the center of the arc groove 5121 is located on the rotation axis of the storage plate 512, and the central angle of the arc groove 5121 is 90°; the storage rack 51 also includes a vertically arranged limit plate 514, the lower end of the limit plate 514 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 511, and the upper end is slidably connected to the arc groove 5121.
[0062] When force is applied to the storage plate 512 so that the storage plate 512, the support rods 513 and the tray 6 rotate simultaneously, the limit plate 514 slides in the arc groove 5121. When the limit plate 514 abuts against the end of the arc groove 5121, the limit plate 514 forms a rotation limit to stop the rotation of the storage plate 512 until the stacking direction of the logistics items stacked in the next layer is opposite to the stacking direction of the logistics items in the previous layer. Thereafter, when stacking the logistics items in the next layer, the storage plate 512 can be rotated in the opposite direction.
[0063] See also Figure 3-Figure 5 In this embodiment: the support frame 4 is fixedly connected to a front baffle 41, the front baffle 41 is located just in front of the discharge end of the secondary conveyor belt 1, and the vertical plane where it is located is located on the side of the rack 51 away from the secondary conveyor belt 1, and the horizontal plane where it is located is higher than the rack 51.
[0064] When the tray 6 is placed on the storage rack 51, the front baffle 41 abuts against the side of the tray 6; when each logistics piece is continuously pushed onto the tray 6 by the pushing plate 82 to form a row of logistics pieces, the front baffle 41 blocks the logistics piece at the front to prevent the logistics piece from being pushed out of the tray 6; when the logistics piece is pushed into place, the pushing plate 82 is subjected to resistance from the logistics piece, and the pushing plate 82 overcomes the torsion of the pushing torsion spring 83 to adaptively rotate and slide over the upper side of the logistics piece.
[0065] When a layer of logistics items is stacked, the storage plate 512 needs to be rotated to drive the tray 6 to rotate. When the receiving direction of the tray 6 is changed, the storage rack 51 and the tray 6 can be driven to move downward at the same time by the vertical linear drive member 5, so that the plane where the storage rack 51 and the tray 6 (stacked with logistics items) are located is lower than the plane where the front baffle 41 is located, so as to apply force to the storage plate 512, so that the storage plate 512, each support rod 513 and the tray 6 rotate at the same time. After the storage rack 51 and the tray 6 move downward at the same time and rotate, there is no need to move the storage rack 51 and the tray 6 upward again, and the next layer of logistics items can be stacked.
[0066] On the basis of the above embodiment, a side baffle 411 is fixedly connected to one end of the front baffle 41 , and one end of the side baffle 411 is fixedly connected to one end of the front baffle 41 and abuts against the other side surface of the tray 6 .
[0067] When the logistics items are stacked to form multiple rows of logistics items, a thrust can be applied to the rows of logistics items at the positions opposite to the side baffles 411, so that the multiple rows of logistics items are pressed against each other. Specifically, a linear drive mechanism (not shown in the figure) facing the side baffles 411 can be provided on the support frame 4 to push, or a work station (not shown in the figure) can be provided on the support frame 4, and the sorter can stand on the work station to manually push the logistics items in the row.
[0068] When sorting is completed, the forklift can be parked at a position directly opposite to the side baffle 411, and the plug plate is inserted into the plug hole 61 to fork away the pallet 6 and the stacked goods.
[0069] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 , Fig.10 as well as Fig.11 In this embodiment: the secondary conveyor belt 1 includes a feed conveyor assembly 11 and a feeding conveyor assembly 12 whose feed end is connected to the discharge end of the feed conveyor assembly 11, the feed conveyor assembly 11 is inclined, and the feed end is higher than the discharge end, the feed conveyor assembly 12 is horizontally arranged, and the supporting platform is used to support the tray 6 on the plane where the discharge end of the feed conveyor assembly 12 is located, and the scanner 2 is installed above the feed conveyor assembly 11 or the feeding conveyor assembly 12.
[0070] During the logistics sorting process, the tray 6 is first pre-placed on the supporting platform, and then the various logistics pieces sent to the same area are input in sequence from the feed end of the feed conveyor component 11. During the input, the label of each logistics piece is facing upward, and during the process of being continuously conveyed in sequence, the scanner 2 scans and records the label. During the conveying process, the horizontally arranged feed conveyor component 12 can relatively slow down the speed of movement of the logistics pieces, reducing the possibility of confusion caused by the logistics pieces not being pushed by the push plate 82 and being directly transmitted to the tray 6.
[0071] As one of the specific solutions of the feed conveyor assembly 11 and the feeding conveyor assembly 12, the feed conveyor assembly 11 can be an inclined plate, and the feeding conveyor assembly 12 can be a horizontally arranged plate. Both the feed conveyor assembly 11 and the feeding conveyor assembly 12 are supported on the ground by a stand (not shown in the figure).
[0072] As a second specific solution of the feed conveyor assembly 11 and the feeding conveyor assembly 12, both of them include a stand (not shown in the figure), two fixed plates fixedly connected to the stand, and a plurality of transmission rollers. The two fixed plates of the feed conveyor assembly 11 are arranged obliquely, and the plurality of transmission rollers of the feed conveyor assembly 11 are arranged obliquely, and the two ends are respectively rotatably connected to the corresponding two fixed plates; the two fixed plates of the feeding conveyor assembly 12 are arranged horizontally, and the plurality of transmission rollers of the feeding conveyor assembly 12 are arranged horizontally.
[0073] When the logistics parts are conveyed downward from the feed end (upper end) of the feed conveying assembly 11, the logistics parts roll downward under the action of gravity, and the transmission rollers roll.
[0074] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 In this embodiment, the feed conveyor assembly 11 and the feeding conveyor assembly 12 are both inclined along the width direction as a whole.
[0075] The feed conveyor assembly 11 and the feeding conveyor assembly 12 are arranged along the width direction, that is, perpendicular to the conveying direction of the secondary conveyor belt 1. During the process of conveying the logistics pieces by the feed conveyor assembly 11 and the feeding conveyor assembly 12, the logistics pieces are always located at the lower end of the width direction of the feed conveyor assembly 11 and the feeding conveyor assembly 12 under the action of gravity. The supported pallet 6 is located directly in front of the lower end of the width direction of the feeding conveyor assembly 12, so that each logistics piece can always be conveyed on the same straight path, reducing the possibility of confusion caused by the logistics pieces being transmitted on the pallet 6, and facilitating quick sorting.
[0076] See also Figure 10-11 In this embodiment: the secondary conveyor belt 1 also includes a material guide component 13, the material guide component 13 includes a material guide plate 131, one end of the material guide plate 131 is connected to the upper end of the feed conveying component 11 in the width direction, and the other end extends obliquely toward the lower end of the feed conveying component 11 in the width direction, and forms a space for material flow to pass through with the lower end of the feed conveying component 11 in the width direction, and the material guide plate 131 is inclined downward toward the feed conveying component 12.
[0077] When the feed conveying component 11 is conveying the logistics pieces, the guide plate 131 can guide each logistics piece, so that after the logistics piece rotates under the action of inertia and the limiting action of the guide plate 131, it passes through the space formed by the guide plate 131 and the lower end of the feed conveying component 11 in the width direction, thereby ensuring that each logistics piece can be conveyed to the tray 6 in the same posture, reducing the steps that the sorter needs to take to sort the logistics pieces, thereby improving the sorting efficiency.
[0078] On the basis of the above embodiment, one end of the guide plate 131 is rotatably connected or abutted against the inner side of one of the fixed plates of the feed conveying assembly 11, and the other end is rotatably connected with a shaft 132, the shaft 132 is fixedly connected with a connecting plate 133, and one end of the connecting plate 133 is fixedly connected to the shaft 132, and the shaft 132 is also sleeved with a distance-adjusting torsion spring 134, and the two ends of the distance-adjusting torsion spring 134 are respectively fixedly connected to the shaft 132 and the guide plate 131. A screw rod 135 is rotatably connected to one side of the connecting plate 133, one end of the screw rod 135 is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 133, and the other end is threadedly connected to one of the fixed plates of the feed conveying assembly 11; a transverse limiting rod 136 is slidably connected to one side of the connecting plate 133, one end of the transverse limiting rod 136 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 133, and the other end is slidably connected to one of the fixed plates of the feed conveying assembly 11.
[0079] During conveying, the space between the connecting plate 133 and another fixed plate of the feed conveying assembly 11 can be changed by rotating the screw 135, and at the same time, the inclination angle of the guide plate 131 can be changed to adjust the guiding effect of the guide plate 131.
[0080] See also Figure 10-11 In this embodiment: the secondary conveyor belt 1 also includes a scraper assembly 14 installed on the feed conveying assembly 11, the scraper assembly 14 is arranged opposite to the material guide assembly 13, and the scraper assembly 14 includes a fixed rod 141 rotatably connected to the feed conveying assembly 11, at least one scraper plate 142 with one end fixedly connected to the side of the fixed rod 141, and a scraper motor 143 with an output end coaxially fixedly connected to one end of the fixed rod 141, and the rotation trajectory of the other end of the scraper plate 142 extends into the feed conveying assembly 11.
[0081] When each logistics piece passes through the space formed by the guide plate 131 and the lower end of the feed conveying component 11 in the width direction, the scraper motor 143 can be started to drive the fixed rod 141 and the scraper plate 142 to rotate, so that the other end of the scraper plate 142 rotates and enters the feed conveying component 11 to move the logistics pieces blocked in the space and adjust the posture of the logistics pieces, thereby ensuring that each logistics piece can be conveyed to the tray 6 in the same posture.
[0082] A through hole is formed through another fixed plate of the feed conveying assembly 11 to allow the rotating scraper plate 142 to enter and exit.
[0083] Working principle: first, place the pallet 6 on the support rod 513 by a forklift; then, the pallet 6 is raised to the front of the feeding conveyor assembly 12 by the vertical linear driving member 5, and the plane where the pallet 6 is located is in the same plane as the lower end of the feeding conveyor assembly 12 in the width direction, and the lower end is close to the side baffle 411; then, each logistics piece with an upward label is introduced into the feeding conveyor assembly 11, and the scanner 2 scans and records the label. At the same time, the pushing conveyor belt 7 is started, and each pushing assembly 8 is driven by the pushing conveyor belt 7 to move in a circular cyclic trajectory. The rotating pushing assembly 8 rotates from the discharge end of the secondary conveyor belt 1 toward the direction of the pallet 6, driving the pushing plate 82 to push the logistics pieces transmitted at the discharge end of the secondary conveyor belt 1, and push them onto the pallet 6; when each logistics piece is arranged in a row, it can be started By moving the horizontal linear drive member 31, the support frame 4 and the tray 6 are pushed to move simultaneously in a direction perpendicular to the conveying direction of the secondary conveyor belt 1, so that the next logistics pieces pushed by the push plate 82 are arranged in another adjacent column, and so on, until multiple logistics pieces are arranged in multiple columns and a layer of logistics pieces is formed on the tray 6. During this process, the sorter can apply force toward the side baffle 411 to the multiple columns of logistics pieces to prevent adjacent logistics pieces from being dispersed; thereafter, the storage rack 51 and the tray 6 are driven to move downward simultaneously by the vertical linear drive member 5 to stack the next layer of logistics pieces. At the same time, force is applied to the storage plate 512 to rotate the storage plate 512, the support rods 513 and the tray 6 at the same time, such as rotating 90°, so that the stacking direction of the logistics pieces stacked in the latter layer is opposite to the stacking direction of the logistics pieces in the previous layer.
[0084] And so on, until multiple rows of logistics parts are stacked and can be taken away by forklift.
