Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of express delivery sorting, and in particular to an express delivery sorting device. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of intelligent control technology, more and more automation technologies are being applied to actual production, and automatic sorting is also a future development trend. Currently, the logistics and express delivery industry cannot achieve leapfrog development and meet consumer service needs by simply increasing the number of operators and expanding sites. Automatic sorting directly scans barcodes or QR codes and matches the data with database data. If the data match is correct, the package can be directly diverted to the destination parcel point for package scanning, eliminating the need for scanners and saving significant labor costs.

[0003] At present, although the existing express sorting equipment has achieved a certain degree of automation in the process of sorting express, such as patent application number: CN201910266239.6, which discloses: a sorting machine, although this type of sorting equipment can transport different types of express to different locations, it requires multiple rollers from the bottom to lift and transport the express in different directions.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0041] Example 1

[0042] See also Figure 1A courier sorting device includes a scanning mechanism 1 for photographing and identifying courier parcels, a feed roller line 2 installed at the bottom of the scanning mechanism 1 and used to transport courier parcels, a sorting platform 3, and a plurality of discharge roller lines 4 arranged outside the sorting platform 3.

A synchronous connecting piece 7 is provided between the rotating sleeve 6 and the sorting and transmission rod 5.

[0044] The synchronous connection member 7 includes two guide blocks 71, and the two guide blocks 71 are fixedly mounted inside the rotating sleeve 6.

The two guide blocks 71 provided inside the rotating sleeve 6 allow the rotating sleeve 6 to rotate relative to the through hole 321 through the synchronous belt 121 driven by the guide blocks 71.

[0045] See also Figure 5 、 Figure 8 and Figures 11 to 15 The bottom of the sorting and transmission rod 5 is rotatably connected to the support member 8. A sealing sleeve 81 is provided at the bottom of the sorting and transmission rod 5 and on the outside of the support member 8. The support member 8 includes a support block 82, a sealing outer ring 83, a buffer member 84 and a magnetic block 85. The support block 82 is located inside the sealing sleeve 81, and the sealing outer ring 83 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the support block 82. The support block 82 is connected to the inside of the sealing sleeve 81 through the outer sealing outer ring 83. The bottom of the sorting and transmission rod 5 is rotatably connected to the support block 82. Two buffer members 84 are provided, and the two buffer members 84 are respectively installed at both ends of the inside of the sealing sleeve 81. The two buffer members 84 are used to connect and support the support block 82;

[0046] The magnetic block 85 is fixedly mounted at the bottom end of the sealing sleeve 81. The support block 82 is made of iron. In this embodiment, the outer side of the sealing sleeve 81 is made of magnetic shielding material. When the magnetic block 85 inside the sealing sleeve 81 is energized to generate a strong magnetic attraction, the magnetic shielding material outside the sealing sleeve 81 can protect the components outside the sealing sleeve 81 and prevent the components inside the support truncated table 31 from being disturbed by the magnetic field.

[0047] See also Figures 13 and 14 The buffer member 84 includes a support rod 841 and a buffer spring 842. The support rod 841 is fixedly installed inside the sealing sleeve 81, and the buffer spring 842 is sleeved on the outside of the support rod 841. A movable hole is provided on the support block 82, and the support block 82 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the support rod 841 through the movable hole. The two ends of the buffer spring 842 are fixedly connected to the support block 82 and the sealing sleeve 81 respectively.

[0048] Specific implementation process: After the scanning mechanism 1 scans and identifies the type of express delivery, that is, the express delivery needs to be sorted to one of the discharge roller lines 4 through the circular plate 32, the electromagnets inside the multiple sealing sleeves 81 at the transmission path corresponding to the discharge roller line 4 are all energized, and the support block 82 is attracted by the strong magnetic attraction of the electromagnet, so that the support block 82 moves along the electromagnet. While the support block 82 moves, the synchronous belt 121 drives the sorting transmission rod 5 on it to slide relative to the rotating sleeve 6 until the support block 82 is attracted by the electromagnet. At this time, the top of the sorting transmission rod 5 on the support block 82 is on the same horizontal plane as the upper surface of the through hole 321, that is, at this time, multiple sorting transmission rods 5 form an express sorting transmission path, that is, forming the first transmission path 9 or the second transmission path 10 or the third transmission path 11 mentioned below, as shown in the accompanying drawings of the specification. Figures 2 to 4 , which are the shape states of the three transmission paths corresponding to the three discharge roller lines 4 in this example.

[0049] The bottom of the supporting table 31 is respectively provided with a first transmission mechanism, a second transmission mechanism and a third transmission mechanism. According to the express model scanned by the scanning mechanism 1, multiple sorting transmission rods 5 respectively form a first transmission path 9, a second transmission path 10 and a third transmission path 11. The first transmission mechanism, the second transmission mechanism and the third transmission mechanism further drive the sorting transmission rod 5 by driving the rotating sleeve 6 at the first transmission path 9, the second transmission path 10 and the third transmission path 11.

[0050] The first transmission mechanism, the second transmission mechanism, and the third transmission mechanism are each composed of a transmission gear 12, a synchronous belt 121, a tensioning rod 122, a drive motor 123, a driving gear 124, and a driven gear 125. There are multiple transmission gears 12, and the multiple transmission gears 12 are respectively fixedly sleeved on the outside of the multiple rotating sleeves 6, and the synchronous belt 121 is used to synchronously drive the multiple transmission gears 12;

[0051] There are multiple tensioning rods 122, which are distributed outside the multiple synchronous belts 121 and are used to keep the synchronous belts 121 in a tensioned state;

[0052] The driving motor 123 is installed at the bottom of the circular plate 32, and the output end of the driving motor 123 is fixedly connected to the driving gear 124, and the driving gear 124 is meshed with the driven gear 125. The driven gear 125 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of one of the rotating sleeves 6. Each transmission mechanism is driven by two driving motors 123. At the same time, in this example, although the multiple rotating sleeves 6 on both sides of the first transmission path 9, the second transmission path 10 and the third transmission path are driven by the first transmission mechanism, the second transmission mechanism and the third transmission mechanism respectively, they can be set according to actual use during specific use, as shown in the accompanying drawings of the specification. Figures 8 and 9 , which is the connection state of the transmission gear 12, the synchronous belt 121, etc. in actual use. In order to ensure stable operation and minimize production costs, other gears and gear belts can also be set to synchronously drive the rotating sleeve 6, only to ensure that the multiple sorting and transmission rods 5 on both sides of the transmission path can rotate towards each other, thereby achieving the function of guiding the delivery of express delivery.

[0053] Specific implementation process: When the express passes through the first transmission path 9 or the second transmission path 10 or the third transmission path 11 on the circular plate 32, the sorting transmission rods 5 on both sides of the corresponding transmission path are located on the outside of the express and rotate toward each other, and the rotation of the multiple sorting transmission rods 5 on both sides of the express is driven by the driving motor 123, and then the driving gear 124 drives the driven gear 125 to rotate, so that the corresponding multiple rotating sleeves 6 are connected through the transmission gears 12 and the synchronous belt 121 with each other, and then the multiple rotating sleeves 6 rotate synchronously, thereby realizing the conveying and sorting of the express while achieving the function of guiding the express.

[0054] An air intake cavity 52 is provided inside the sorting and transmission rod 5, and a plurality of air intake holes 53 are provided at positions corresponding to the air intake cavity 52 of the sorting and transmission rod 5, that is, the plurality of air intake holes 53 are all connected with the air intake cavity 52, and a dust suction mechanism 13 is provided inside the supporting table 31, and the dust suction mechanism 13 is connected with a plurality of sealing sleeves 81, and the dust suction mechanism 13 absorbs dust on the outside of the express through the sorting and transmission rod 5.

[0055] See also Figures 5 to 7 The dust collection mechanism 13 includes a dust collection pump 131, a dust collection pipe 132, a dust collection shell 133 and a connecting pipe 14. The dust collection pump 131 is installed inside the supporting table 31, and the input end of the dust collection pump 131 is connected to the dust collection pipe 132, and the other end of the dust collection pipe 132 is connected to the dust collection shell 133. There are multiple connecting pipes 14, and the connecting pipes 14 are connected to the sealing sleeve 81.

[0056] The connecting pipe fitting 14 includes an L-shaped connecting pipe 141 and a sealing outer ring 142. One end of the L-shaped connecting pipe 141 is connected to the dust collection shell 133. An air guide hole 811 is provided at the bottom of the sealing sleeve 81. The other end of the L-shaped connecting pipe 141 is located at the air guide hole 811. The sealing outer ring 142 is fixedly sleeved on the outside of the L-shaped connecting pipe 141 and one end is located at the air guide hole 811. A rubber sleeve 821 is installed at the bottom of the support block 82 and outside the movable hole, and the rubber sleeve 821 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the support rod 841.

[0057] The height of the air guide hole 811 from the bottom of the sealing sleeve 81 is less than the height of the sealing outer ring 83 .

[0058] Specific implementation process: When the express is moving along the first transmission path 9 or the second transmission path 10 or the third transmission path 11, in this embodiment, in order to remove the dust on the outside of the express to the greatest extent, the upper ends of the sorting transmission rods 5 on both sides of the transmission path are located above the circular plate 32, and the sorting transmission rods 5 located at the transmission path and outside the transmission path are energized by the electromagnets at their bottoms, so the tops of the corresponding sorting transmission rods 5 and the upper surfaces of the through holes 321 of the circular plate 32 are kept in the same straight line, and in this case, the support block 82 and the electromagnet are stably adsorbed, and the seal outside the support block 82 is The outer sealing ring 83 also seals the air guide hole 811, that is, the sorting and transmission rod 5 extending into the through hole 321 does not generate negative pressure suction, and the multiple sorting and transmission rods 5 used to transport the express delivery, due to the operation of the dust suction pump 131, the dust suction pipe 132 generates a negative pressure adsorption force on the sealing sleeve 81 through the connecting pipe 14 at the dust suction shell 133, and the sorting and transmission rod 5 at the sealing sleeve 81 adsorbs the dust on the outside of the express delivery through the air inlet hole 53, and then the sorting and transmission rods 5 on both sides of the express delivery can assist in the transportation of the express delivery while achieving the function of cleaning the express delivery.

[0059] Example 2

[0060] See also Figures 11 to 14The second embodiment is a further supplementary explanation of the first embodiment. Specifically, the sealing sleeve 81 is composed of a central cylindrical end and two convex ends, and the support block 82 is set to correspond to the shape of the sealing sleeve 81. At the same time, the support rod 841 and the buffer spring 842 are both located at the two convex ends of the sealing sleeve 81, and the electromagnet is located at the bottom of the central cylindrical end of the sealing sleeve 81.

[0061] And this arrangement ensures that when the electromagnet is energized, the support rod 841 and the buffer spring 842 do not affect the support block 82, ensuring a stable adsorption connection between the energized electromagnet and the support block 82. At the same time, after the electromagnet is de-energized, the reverse elastic force of the buffer spring 842 can enable the support block 82 to drive the sorting and transmission rod 5 to move upward along the sealing sleeve 81 and the rotating sleeve 6.
