[0023] To further illustrate the various embodiments, the present invention provides drawings. These drawings are part of the disclosure of the present invention, which are mainly used to illustrate the embodiments and can be used in conjunction with the relevant descriptions in the specification to explain the operating principles of the embodiments. With reference to these contents, a person of ordinary skill in the art should be able to understand other possible implementations and advantages of the present invention. The components in the figures are not drawn to scale, and similar component symbols are generally used to represent similar components.

[0024] The utility model is now further described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0025] Embodiment 1:

[0026] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a baggage auxiliary handling device, used for transition connection and baggage transfer device 2 between automatic conveyor 1 and baggage transfer device 2. Automatic conveyor 1 can be a baggage carousel or a belt conveyor, and baggage transfer device 2 can be a baggage flatbed trailer or an air container. The baggage auxiliary handling device includes an auxiliary conveyor belt and a guide. The baggage auxiliary handling device includes a supporting box 4 and an auxiliary conveyor belt. The two conveying ends of the auxiliary conveyor belt are respectively connected to the automatic conveyor 1 and the baggage transfer device 2, and the inclination angle of the auxiliary conveyor belt relative to the automatic conveyor 1 can be adjusted. Among them, the auxiliary conveyor belt includes a belt conveyor 3, and the belt conveyor 3 can run forward or reverse. In this way, the baggage can be transported from the automatic conveyor 1 to the baggage transfer device 2, or the baggage can be transported from the baggage transfer device 2 to the automatic conveyor 1, thereby improving the baggage handling efficiency and reducing the work intensity of the staff.

[0027] Reference Figure 3 The belt conveyor 3 includes a driving roller 31, a driven roller 32, a belt 33 and a housing 34. The driving roller 31 and the driven roller 32 are respectively installed at the two ends of the housing 34, and the belt 33 is a ring structure. The driving roller 31 is an electric roller. The driving roller 31 and the driven roller 32 are respectively located at the two ends of the belt 33, and the belt 33 is tightened to the two ends, so that the driving roller 31 can drive the belt 33 to rotate. In addition, the belt conveyor 3 also includes a tensioning roller 35. The tensioning roller 35 is axially parallel to the axial direction of the driving roller 31 and is installed in the housing 34 to abut against the belt 33; and the tensioning roller 35 can be adjusted relative to the housing 34, so as to adjust the degree of abutment between the tensioning roller 35 and the belt 33, and then adjust the tension of the belt 33. Specifically, the tensioning roller 35 can be fine-tuned vertically. The fine-tuning method of the tensioning roller 35 is to open a strip hole on the shell 34. Both ends of the tensioning roller 35 are connected to a mounting seat by rotation. The mounting seat is connected to the strip hole by bolt locking. That is, the mounting seat can be adjusted relative to the length direction of the strip hole and then locked, so as to adjust the degree of tightness between the tensioning roller 35 and the belt 33, and adjust the tension of the belt 33, so as to ensure the normal operation of the belt 33 and avoid slipping between the belt 33 and the active roller 31 or the driven roller 32.

[0028] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 One end of the belt conveyor 3 in the length direction is rotatably connected to the support box 4, and the other end is a free end. A telescopic structure is provided on the support box 4 to adjust the inclination angle of the auxiliary conveyor belt relative to the automatic conveyor 1, so as to adapt to the baggage transfer in different scenarios and reduce the workload of the staff. Among them, the support box 4 includes an internal cavity, one end of the telescopic structure is hinged in the internal cavity, and the other end of the telescopic structure extends from the internal cavity and is hinged to the bottom of the belt conveyor 3. The inclination angle of the auxiliary conveyor belt relative to the automatic conveyor 1 is adjusted by the telescopic action of the telescopic structure.

[0029] The telescopic structure can be set as an electric cylinder 5, one end of which is hinged on the support box 4, and the other end is hinged on the bottom of the belt conveyor 3. The inclination angle of the belt conveyor 3 relative to the automatic conveyor 1 can be adjusted by the telescopic movement of the electric cylinder 5. In this embodiment, the support box 4 is set as a box structure, and the belt conveyor 3 is rotatably installed on the upper end of the box structure. The inside of the box structure can be used to place a power supply, and the power supply is used to provide power to the electric cylinder 5 to achieve the movement of the electric cylinder 5. The box structure is provided with a control button for controlling the start and stop of the belt conveyor 3, and control buttons for controlling the telescopic movement of the electric cylinder 5 are provided on both side walls in the width direction of the belt conveyor 3 to facilitate the adjustment of the inclination angle of the belt conveyor 3. In other embodiments, the telescopic structure can also be set as a pneumatic cylinder or an oil cylinder.

[0030] Among them, the supporting box body 4 is set as a box structure, which can accommodate and protect the telescopic structure, play a dust-proof effect, improve reliability, and can also accommodate power supply to improve safety performance.

[0031] In other embodiments, the inclination angle of the belt conveyor 3 can also be adjusted manually. That is, a turntable is coaxially fixed on the connecting shaft of the belt conveyor 3 and the supporting box 4, and adjustment holes are evenly spaced around the turntable. A fixing seat is fixed on the supporting box 4, and a latch is installed on the fixing seat. The latch can be inserted into the adjustment hole to fix the inclination angle of the belt conveyor 3; by inserting the latch into the adjustment holes at different positions on the turntable, the inclination angle of the belt conveyor 3 can be changed. Compared with the electric cylinder 5, this method that requires manual adjustment saves energy, but the operation is more troublesome, time-consuming and labor-intensive.

[0032] Embodiment 2:

[0033] Reference Figure 5 The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that the auxiliary conveyor belt includes a conveyor plate 6, and rollers are arranged at intervals on the conveyor plate 6 to reduce the friction generated when the luggage moves on the conveyor plate 6. In this embodiment, the rollers include balls 61, which are evenly arranged on the conveyor plate 6, and the balls 61 are connected to the conveyor plate 6 by rolling, and the balls 61 can roll in any direction. When the luggage is placed on the conveyor plate 6, the friction of the luggage during the movement can be reduced through the contact between the balls 61 and the luggage.

[0034] Similarly, the inclination angle of the conveyor plate 6 can be adjusted. The adjustment method can adopt the same structure as in the first embodiment to achieve the angle adjustment of the conveyor plate 6. When the conveyor plate 6 is in a horizontal state, the transportation of the luggage on the conveyor plate 6 requires manual thrust to the luggage so that the luggage can be smoothly transported. When the conveyor plate 6 is adjusted to a sufficient inclination angle, that is, when the gravity decomposition force of the luggage along the conveyor plate 6 is greater than the friction force between the luggage and the conveyor plate 6, the luggage moves from the high position of the conveyor plate 6 to the low position under the action of its own gravity, and the luggage can move on the conveyor plate 6 without additional power.

[0035] In other embodiments, the rolling element may be a rotating roller, the axial direction of the rotating roller is the same as the width direction of the conveying plate 6, and the rotating roller is evenly spaced along the length direction of the conveying plate 6.

[0036] Although the present invention has been specifically demonstrated and described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that various changes may be made to the present invention in form and detail without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined in the appended claims, all of which are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
