[0002] After years of development, truss sorting robots have gradually been applied to the field of small-item sorting in the e-commerce and express delivery industries. The performance requirements of sorting robots in related application scenarios have also risen accordingly, especially the sorting needs of "long travel, multiple grids, high efficiency, and high automation" for sorting robots are becoming more and more urgent. At present, the number of grids in most sorting scenarios exceeds 100, and the horizontal axis span exceeds 6000mm. The overall sorting efficiency is required to be 2500-3000pcs / h. Due to the height limit of the equipment, in order to meet the needs of more grids in the scene, the truss robot is often required to arrange a longer translation travel. As the travel increases, the sorting efficiency decreases linearly.

[0003] The truss sorting robots in the prior art generally use a packaged linear module slide as the motion axis. Due to the slow running speed of the linear module slide, its sorting efficiency is far lower than the scene requirements. The high-speed sorting robot technology represented by the announcement number "CN220004956U-High-speed Truss Sorting Robot" adopts a high-speed motion axis structure to solve the problem of slow running speed of the motion axis. However, its layout method is a single-sided feeding, and the movement time of its translation axis will increase linearly with the increase of stroke, and the sorting efficiency will decrease linearly accordingly, so it is not suitable for long-stroke sorting scenarios. Therefore, it is necessary to design a truss sorting system that is suitable for improving the sorting efficiency of mail. Utility Model Content
