The top height of the horizontal end is level with the bottom height of the vertical end. The driving source 73 is located at the horizontal end of the side-turning flat conveyor belt 71 and the flat-turning side conveyor belt 72, so that the side-turning flat conveyor belt 71 and the flat-turning side conveyor belt 72 can be stably driven, with good driving effect and high quality. An angle approaching 90° is formed between the side-turning flat conveyor belt 71 and the flat-turning side conveyor belt 72, so that the logistics box can be flipped while being transported, and the flipping is stable. After flipping, the logistics box will not shake or move, thereby improving the flipping efficiency.

[0036] See also Figure 1 A code scanning platform 2 is provided on the device body 1, and a rotating disk 21 is installed in the middle of the top of the code scanning platform 2. A code scanning area 22 is provided at the center of the rotating disk 21.

The walking mechanism is used to move on the toothed belt 4, and the code scanning mechanism is used to scan the logistics code. The code scanning component 5 reciprocates on the toothed belt 4, the movement is stable, and the logistics code can be scanned at multiple angles.

[0039] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 The rear end of the device body 1 is respectively connected with a flip conveyor belt 7 and a conveyor belt 6, and the rear end of the flip conveyor belt 7 is connected with an extended conveyor belt 8. The flip conveyor belt 7 and the conveyor belt 6 are arranged in parallel, and the rear ends of the flip conveyor belt 7 and the conveyor belt 6 are provided with a sorting conveyor belt. The conveyor belt 6 is used to transfer the logistics box to the sorting belt. The flip conveyor belt 7 can flip the logistics box and scan the code, and then transfer it to the sorting belt, so that the logistics box can be sorted calmly, and the sorting effect is good.

[0040] The implementation principle of the utility model is as follows: first, the device body 1 is installed, the front-end conveyor belt, the flip conveyor belt, the extension conveyor belt and the conveyor belt are connected and installed, and the power is turned on. When the front-end transmission component transmits the logistics box, the logistics box will be transmitted to the scanning area 22 on the rotating disk 21. At this time, the scanning component moves on the toothed ring belt 4 to scan the logistics code. When the code cannot be scanned, the controller drives the rotating disk 21 to rotate, adjusts the angle of the logistics box, and then re-scans the code. After the scanning is completed, the rotating disk 21 turns to the conveyor belt 6 to transmit and sort the logistics box. If the code still cannot be scanned, it means that the logistics code is located on the bottom surface of the logistics box. Therefore, the controller controls the rotating disk 21 to turn to the flip conveyor belt 7. Under the action of the built-in conveyor belt of the rotating disk 21, the logistics box is transmitted to the flip conveyor belt 7. Under the action of the flip conveyor belt 7, the bottom surface of the logistics box is exposed. At this time, the scanning terminal 82 is opened to scan the flipped logistics code, and the degree of automation is high.
