Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of warehouse sorting equipment technology, and in particular to a smart warehouse sorting equipment and sorting method. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of e-commerce, intelligent manufacturing, and modern logistics, the demand for automated, efficient, and flexible sorting and conveying in smart warehousing systems is becoming increasingly urgent. In warehousing and logistics centers, goods often need to be quickly sorted and transported to different conveyor lines or workstations according to their destination, category, or priority. The performance of the sorting equipment directly affects the throughput efficiency and operating costs of the entire logistics system.

[0003] Currently, common automated sorting technologies mainly include swing wheel sorters, cross-belt sorters, push rod sorters, and chute or tilting plate sorting devices. While these devices achieve automated sorting to a certain extent, they still have several limitations in practical applications. Most sorting equipment is based on a planar layout, achieving multi-directional sorting by adding multiple parallel conveyor lines. This requires a large amount of factory floor space, which is difficult to implement in space-constrained warehousing environments and is not conducive to building dense, three-dimensional logistics systems. Traditional swing wheel or push rod sorters mainly perform left-right sorting on a horizontal plane, making it difficult to achieve vertical sorting of goods to upper or lower levels. Furthermore, for scenarios requiring both linear extension and lateral sorting capabilities, multiple sets of equipment are often needed. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a smart warehouse diversion device and method. By setting up two layers of horizontal conveyor belts and two longitudinal conveyor belts on both sides, and combining them with upper and lower conveyor plates that can be tilted and switched as a whole, the device can flexibly divert items from a single main conveyor line to four possible destinations. It automatically senses and activates the power system of the conveyor plate currently in the working position using the principle of gravity, while the non-working plates are in a power-off standby state, realizing on-demand energy distribution and effectively reducing the standby energy consumption and mechanical wear of the equipment.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a smart warehouse diversion device, comprising: The conveyor frame is equipped with a main conveyor belt, a diversion component, a transverse conveyor belt and a longitudinal conveyor belt, with the transverse conveyor belt having two layers; The diversion assembly includes an upper conveyor plate, a lower conveyor plate, a multi-link, a push rod, and rotating wheels. One end of the upper and lower conveyor plates rotates around the conveyor frame via a rotating shaft, and the other end of the upper and lower conveyor plates is movably connected to the multi-link. The multi-link is connected to a cylinder on the conveyor frame via a push rod. The cylinder is used for the synchronous rotation of the upper and lower conveyor plates. Several rotating wheels are also provided on the upper and lower conveyor plates. The rotating wheels rotate and the angle is adjustable. The products on the main conveyor belt are diverted to the transverse conveyor belt or the longitudinal conveyor belt of the upper / lower layer after passing through the rotating wheels of the upper or lower conveyor plate.

[0006] Furthermore, the transverse conveyor belt is arranged on the extension path of the main conveyor belt, and the longitudinal conveyor belt is arranged on both sides of the diversion component.

[0007] Furthermore, the upper and lower conveyor plates are equipped with power devices for controlling the rotation of the rotating wheel and control components for adjusting the angle of the rotating wheel.

[0008] Furthermore, the power equipment includes a main drive shaft, a secondary drive shaft, a rotating wheel sleeve, and a bracket. The main drive shaft, secondary drive shaft, and rotating wheel sleeve pass through the bearings of the bracket. Each rotating wheel sleeve has a transmission frame inside. Both ends of the rotating wheel shaft pass through the transmission frame. The transmission frame is equipped with a transmission gear set. One end of the transmission gear set meshes with the shaft of the rotating wheel, and the other end of the transmission gear set meshes with the secondary drive shaft. The other end of the secondary drive shaft meshes with the main drive shaft through a bevel gear. The main drive shaft is connected to a motor.

[0009] Furthermore, there are several secondary drive shafts and rotating wheel sleeves, and each secondary drive shaft is connected to several rotating wheel sleeves.

[0010] Furthermore, the control component includes a moving rod, a rack, and a gear ring. One side of the moving rod is connected to the telescopic rod of the cylinder, and several vertically arranged racks are fixed on the other side of the moving rod. The racks mesh with the gear ring fixed on the transmission frame.

[0011] Furthermore, both the upper and lower conveyor plates are equipped with control components connected to the motor and cylinder. The control components include a control box, a control ball, and a pressure switch. The control box is installed on the outer wall of the upper and lower conveyor plates. The two pressure switches are located on the corresponding sides of the upper and lower conveyor plates. The control ball is located inside the control box. When the control ball contacts the pressure switch, the connected motor and cylinder are started.

[0012] Furthermore, the upper and lower conveyor plates are provided with several round holes, which are movably connected to the sealing plate. The sealing plate is connected to the transmission frame, and the sealing plate is also provided with a strip groove for the rotating wheel to pass through.

[0013] Furthermore, the lower conveyor plate is also provided with a baffle structure, which includes a baffle, a sealing plate and a sealing box. The sealing box is located below the lower conveyor plate, and the top of the sealing box is flush with the top of the sealing box. The bottom of the baffle is connected to the sealing plate, and the top of the sealing box is also provided with a slot for the baffle to pass through. Liquid is provided inside the sealing box.

[0014] A smart warehouse distribution method includes the following steps: S1: The product is transported to the area where the diversion component is located via the main conveyor belt, ready for diversion; S2: The cylinder pulls the upper and lower conveyor plates up or down through the multi-link, so that one end of the upper or lower conveyor plate is aligned with one end of the main conveyor belt. S3: During the process of the upper and lower conveyor plates rising or falling, the control ball will move towards the lower position under the action of gravity. The control ball in the upper or lower conveyor plate will contact the pressure switch, which will be triggered and send a signal to start the corresponding cylinder and motor. S4: The cylinder drives the moving rod to move. The rack on the moving rod meshes with the gear ring on the transmission frame, causing the transmission frame to rotate. This is used to adjust the angle of the rotating wheel. The motor starts and drives the main transmission shaft to rotate. Through the bevel gear, it drives several auxiliary transmission shafts to rotate. The auxiliary transmission shafts mesh with the transmission frame inside the rotating wheel sleeve through the transmission gear set, causing the rotating wheel to rotate. The rotating wheel pushes the product in the target direction.

[0015] S5: If the guide is horizontal, the product enters the horizontal conveyor belt; if the guide is vertical, the product enters the vertical conveyor belt.

[0016] S6: After the product has completely left the diversion component, the cylinder and motor automatically reset, and the upper and lower conveyor plates are rotated back to their initial horizontal positions via the multi-link. The motor stops, the wheel stops rotating, and the moving rod of the control component resets the wheel angle to the correct position.

[0017] The technical effects and advantages of this invention are as follows: 1. By setting up two layers of horizontal conveyor belts and vertical conveyor belts on both sides, and combining them with upper and lower conveyor plates that can be tilted and switched as a whole, the equipment can flexibly divert items from a single main conveyor line to four possible destinations. This three-dimensional diversion design overcomes the shortcomings of traditional planar sorting, which has a large footprint and a single flow direction, and significantly improves the utilization rate of warehouse space and logistics throughput efficiency.

[0018] 2. Utilizing the principle of gravity, the system automatically senses and activates the power system of the conveyor plate currently in the working position, while keeping non-working plates in a power-off standby state. This achieves on-demand energy allocation, effectively reducing equipment standby energy consumption and mechanical wear, embodying the energy-saving and environmentally friendly concept of smart warehousing.

[0019] 3. The power unit efficiently and synchronously transmits the power of a single motor to all rotating wheels through the main drive shaft, auxiliary drive shaft, and transmission gear set, ensuring consistent driving force. The control components drive the rack and pinion mechanism with cylinders to synchronously adjust the deflection angle of all rotating wheels, thereby guiding items to the horizontal or vertical outlet and ensuring the coordination and reliability of the diversion action.

[0020] 4. To address the issue that items may slide straight due to gravity and inertia when diverting from the lower conveyor plate, a baffle structure based on the principle of liquid buoyancy is adopted. When the conveyor plate is tilted, the liquid flow automatically lifts the baffle to form a barrier, forcing the items to accept the lateral guidance of the rollers. This effectively prevents items from being mistakenly diverted to the transverse conveyor belt, significantly improving the success rate of the diversion action, and requiring no additional power.

[0023] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] Example 1: See Figures 1-8 A smart warehouse distribution system includes: The conveyor frame 1 is equipped with a main conveyor belt 2, a diversion component 3, a transverse conveyor belt 4, and a longitudinal conveyor belt 5. The transverse conveyor belt 4 has two layers and is located on the extension path of the main conveyor belt 2. The longitudinal conveyor belt 5 is located on both sides of the diversion component 3. Through the conveying structure of the two layers of transverse conveyor belts 4, the conveying channel is developed in a three-dimensional direction, saving space. At the same time, the longitudinal conveyor belt 5 can also change the conveying direction of the product.

[0025] The main conveyor belt 2 is responsible for continuously transporting the products to be sorted to the diversion operation area. The diversion component 3 is the core mechanism for performing the diversion action. Its rear and sides are connected to the diversion destination. On the extension line of the diversion component 3, that is, in the straight direction of the main conveyor belt 2, there are two layers of transverse conveyor belts 4. The upper transverse conveyor belt 4 is used to receive products that need to be transported forward, and the lower transverse conveyor belt 4 is located directly below it. On the left and right sides of the diversion component 3, there are longitudinal conveyor belts 5, which are used to receive items that need to be diverted to the left or right, forming a three-dimensional diversion network.

[0026] The diversion assembly 3 includes an upper conveyor plate 31, a lower conveyor plate 32, a multi-link 33, a push rod 34, and a rotating wheel 35. One end of the upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32 rotates around the conveyor frame 1 via a rotating shaft, and the other end of the upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32 is movably connected to the multi-link 33. The multi-link 33 is connected to a cylinder on the conveyor frame 1 via the push rod 34. The cylinder is used for the upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32 to rotate synchronously. Several rotating wheels 35 are also provided on the upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32. The rotating wheels 35 rotate and the angle is adjustable. The products on the main conveyor belt 2 are diverted to the upper / lower layer transverse conveyor belt 4 or the upper / lower layer longitudinal conveyor belt 5 by passing the rotating wheels 35 of the upper conveyor plate 31 or the lower conveyor plate 32.

[0027] Several rotating wheels 35 are evenly distributed on the surfaces of the upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32. These rotating wheels 35 are not passive rollers, but have two key functions: first, they can be driven to rotate, providing forward or lateral power for the product; second, their axial angle can be adjusted as a whole to change the conveying direction of the product, either moving it horizontally or pushing it vertically.

[0028] Specifically, the multi-link 33 consists of two hinged rods. Under the action of the cylinder, the upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32 can be rotated around the conveyor frame 1 through the multi-link 33, thereby realizing the raising or lowering of one end of the upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32. It should also be noted that the distance between the main conveyor belt 2 and the upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32 is the same. This means that when one end of the upper conveyor plate 31 or the lower conveyor plate 32 is aligned with the main conveyor belt 2 for conveying, the upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32 are both in an inclined state, which facilitates the operation of the subsequent control component 8.

[0029] Both the upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32 are equipped with control components 8 that are connected to the motor and cylinder. The control components 8 include a control box 81, a control ball 82, and a pressure switch 83. The control box 81 is installed on the outer wall of the upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32. Two pressure switches 83 are located on the corresponding sides of the upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32. The control ball 82 is located inside the control box 81. When the control ball 82 contacts the pressure switch 83, the connected motor and cylinder are started.

[0030] Specifically, since only one of the upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32 can work during the diversion process, while the other is in a waiting state, a control component 8 is set up to consider energy saving and environmental protection. After the upper conveyor plate 31 or the lower conveyor plate 32 is aligned with the main conveyor belt 2, the motor and cylinder on the upper conveyor plate 31 or the lower conveyor plate 32 are in a conductive state, while the other is in a de-energized state, thereby achieving the purpose of energy saving and reducing equipment wear.

[0031] Since the upper conveyor plate 31 or the lower conveyor plate 32 rotates around the shaft at one end under the action of the cylinder, and the other end rises or falls synchronously, the upper conveyor plate 31 or the lower conveyor plate 32 are in a synchronous state. Therefore, the pressure switches 83 in the upper conveyor plate 31 or the lower conveyor plate 32 are set accordingly. After the upper conveyor plate 31 is aligned with the main conveyor belt 2, the control ball 82 moves towards the main conveyor belt 2 under the action of gravity. At this time, the pressure switch 83 on the upper conveyor plate 31 is in contact with the control ball 82. After the pressure switch 83 detects stable pressure data, it controls the motor and cylinder of the upper conveyor plate 31 to work. Similarly, when the lower conveyor plate 32 is aligned with the main conveyor belt 2, the control ball 82 moves towards the transverse conveyor belt 4 under the action of gravity. At this time, the pressure switch 83 on the upper conveyor plate 31 is disengaged from the control ball 82, and the pressure switch 83 on the lower conveyor plate 32 is in contact with the control ball 82. Then the motor and cylinder on the lower conveyor plate 32 are in working state.

[0032] Working principle: When the upper conveyor plate 31 or the lower conveyor plate 32 is in a horizontal non-working state, the regulating ball 82 is in the middle. When the upper conveyor plate 31 or the lower conveyor plate 32 is tilted by the cylinder drive, for example, the end of the upper conveyor plate 31 descends to align with the main conveyor belt, under the action of gravity, the regulating ball 82 will roll to the lower side and press the pressure switch 83 on that side. The pressure switch 83 is triggered, connecting the power supply to the power and control system, putting it into a standby working state. The other regulating ball 82 will not contact the pressure switch 83, keeping it in a de-energized state. This realizes energy-saving control of who works and who starts.

[0033] The upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32 are equipped with a power device 6 for controlling the rotation of the rotating wheel 35 and a control component for adjusting the angle of the rotating wheel 35.

[0034] The power unit 6 includes a main drive shaft 61, a secondary drive shaft 62, a rotating wheel sleeve 63, and a bracket 64. The main drive shaft 61, secondary drive shaft 62, and rotating wheel sleeve 63 pass through the bearings of the bracket 64. Several secondary drive shafts 62 and rotating wheel sleeves 63 are provided, and each secondary drive shaft 62 is connected to several rotating wheel sleeves 63. Each rotating wheel sleeve 63 has a transmission frame 65 inside. Both ends of the shaft of the rotating wheel 35 pass through the transmission frame 65. The transmission frame 65 is provided with a transmission gear set. One end of the transmission gear set meshes with the shaft of the rotating wheel 35, and the other end of the transmission gear set meshes with the secondary drive shaft 62. The other end of the secondary drive shaft 62 meshes with the main drive shaft 61 through a bevel gear. The main drive shaft 61 is connected to a motor.

[0035] The upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32 are also provided with several round holes, which are movably connected to the sealing plate. The sealing plate is connected to the transmission frame 65, and the sealing plate is also provided with a strip groove for the rotating wheel 35 to pass through.

[0036] The control assembly includes a moving rod 71, a rack 72, and a gear ring 73. One side of the moving rod 71 is connected to the telescopic rod of the cylinder, and several vertically arranged racks 72 are fixed on the other side of the moving rod 71. The racks 72 mesh with the gear ring 73 fixed on the transmission frame 65.

[0037] Specifically, the power device 6 and control components are used to drive the rotation of the rotating wheel 35 and adjust its angle. In operation, the rotating wheel sleeve 63 is fixedly mounted on the bracket 64. When the motor is working, the power is transmitted through the main drive shaft 61 to several auxiliary drive shafts 62, and then through several transmission gear sets to the rotating wheel 35 to drive the rotating wheel 35 to rotate.

[0038] Because a longitudinal conveyor belt 5 is set up to expand the diversion range, the angle of the roller 35 needs to be adjusted. The moving rod 71 is driven by a cylinder to rotate, thereby changing the position of the rack 72, which is used to drive the transmission frame 65 to rotate as a whole to change the angle of the roller 35, so as to achieve the function of diverting products in different directions.

[0039] Example 2: See Figure 9 In this embodiment, a baffle structure is provided on the lower conveyor plate 32. The purpose is to prevent the product from sliding directly onto the transverse conveyor belt 4 under gravity after the lower conveyor plate 32 is aligned with the main conveyor belt 2, instead of moving towards the longitudinal conveyor belt 5. The baffle structure includes a baffle 91, a sealing plate 92, and a sealing box 93. The sealing box 93 is located below the lower conveyor plate 32, and its top is flush with the top of the main conveyor belt 2. The bottom of the baffle 91 is connected to the sealing plate 92. Liquid is provided inside the sealing box 93. The sealing plate 92 serves to isolate the liquid and increase buoyancy support. After the lower conveyor plate 32 is aligned with the main conveyor belt 2, the lower conveyor plate 32 is in an inclined state. The liquid flow will push the baffle 91 and the sealing plate 92 upward. At this time, the baffle 91 protrudes relative to the lower conveyor plate 32. The product will be blocked by the baffle 91 during the movement to prevent it from sliding onto the transverse conveyor belt 4. In addition, the side of the baffle 91 is also provided with ball bearings to reduce friction.

[0040] Working principle: When the lower conveyor plate 32 is horizontal, the baffle 91 retracts below the plate surface. When the lower conveyor plate 32 is tilted to the working position, the liquid in the sealing box 93 flows to the lower position due to the tilt. The buoyancy and pressure generated push the sealing plate 92 together with the baffle 91 to move upward, so that the baffle 91 protrudes above the plate surface, forming a physical barrier. This barrier can prevent the product from sliding straight and force the product to turn to the longitudinal conveyor belt 5 under the lateral push of the roller 35.

[0041] A smart warehouse distribution method includes the following steps: S1: The product is transported to the area where the diversion component 3 is located via the main conveyor belt 2, ready for diversion; S2: The cylinder pulls the upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32 up or down through the multi-link 33, so that one end of the upper conveyor plate 31 or the lower conveyor plate 32 is aligned with one end of the main conveyor belt 2. S3: During the process of the upper conveyor plate 31 and the lower conveyor plate 32 rising or falling, under the action of gravity, the control ball 82 will move towards the lower position, and the control ball 82 in the upper conveyor plate 31 or the lower conveyor plate 32 will come into contact with the pressure switch 83. The pressure switch 83 is triggered and sends a signal to start the corresponding cylinder and motor. S4: The cylinder drives the moving rod 71 to move. The rack 72 on the moving rod 71 meshes with the gear ring 73 on the transmission frame 65, causing the transmission frame 65 to rotate. This is used to adjust the angle of the rotating wheel 35. The motor starts and drives the main transmission shaft 61 to rotate. Through the bevel gear, it drives several auxiliary transmission shafts 62 to rotate. The auxiliary transmission shafts 62 mesh with the transmission frame 65 inside the rotating wheel sleeve 63 through the transmission gear set, causing the rotating wheel 35 to rotate. The rotating wheel 35 pushes the product in the target direction.

[0042] S5: If the guide is transverse, the product enters the transverse conveyor belt 4; if the guide is longitudinal, the product enters the longitudinal conveyor belt 5.

[0043] S6: After the product completely leaves the diversion component, the cylinder and motor automatically reset, and the upper conveyor plate 31 and lower conveyor plate 32 are rotated back to the initial horizontal position through the multi-link 33. The motor stops, the rotating wheel 35 stops rotating, and the moving rod 71 of the control component resets the rotating wheel 35 to the correct angle.

[0044] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.

10. A smart warehouse diversion method, applied to the diversion equipment described in claim 9, characterized in that: Includes the following steps: S1: The product is transported to the area where the diversion component (3) is located via the main conveyor belt (2) and is ready for diversion; S2: The cylinder pulls the upper conveyor plate (31) and the lower conveyor plate (32) up or down through the multi-link (33) so that one end of the upper conveyor plate (31) or the lower conveyor plate (32) is aligned with one end of the main conveyor belt (2); S3: During the process of the upper conveyor plate (31) and the lower conveyor plate (32) rising or falling, under the action of gravity, the control ball (82) will move towards the lower position. The control ball (82) in the upper conveyor plate (31) or the lower conveyor plate (32) will contact the pressure switch (83). The pressure switch (83) is triggered and sends a signal to start the corresponding cylinder and motor. S4: The cylinder drives the moving rod (71) to move. The rack (72) on the moving rod (71) meshes with the gear ring (73) on the transmission frame (65), causing the transmission frame (65) to rotate. This is used to adjust the angle of the rotating wheel (35). The motor starts and drives the main transmission shaft (61) to rotate. Through the bevel gear, it drives several auxiliary transmission shafts (62) to rotate. The auxiliary transmission shafts (62) mesh with the transmission frame (65) inside the rotating wheel sleeve (63) through the transmission gear set, causing the rotating wheel (35) to rotate. The rotating wheel (35) pushes the product in the target direction. S5: If the product is guided laterally, it enters the transverse conveyor belt (4). If the product is guided longitudinally, it enters the longitudinal conveyor belt (5). S6: After the product completely leaves the diversion component, the cylinder and motor automatically reset, and the upper conveyor plate (31) and lower conveyor plate (32) are rotated back to the initial horizontal position through the multi-link (33). The motor stops, the wheel (35) stops rotating, and the moving rod (71) of the control component resets the angle of the wheel (35) back to the correct position.
