Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of express delivery sorting and conveying technology, and in particular to an express delivery sorting and conveying device with automatic counting function. Background Technology

[0002] In distribution centers, conveyor belts are used to transport inventory parcels to packaging and shipping areas. They connect different shelving areas, facilitating retrieval and replenishment by staff. Meanwhile, in some automated warehouses, conveyor belts work in conjunction with other automated equipment (such as steering conveyors and automatic scanning systems) to automate the sorting and retrieval of parcels.

[0003] In existing technologies, when the barcodes on express boxes become dusty, dirty, or damaged during transportation, the automatic scanning system may fail to scan them, preventing automatic sorting and requiring manual inspection. However, some express boxes have undamaged barcodes that are easy to clean. If all of them are inspected and cleaned manually, it is difficult to guarantee the cleaning speed, resulting in low sorting efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0019] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0020] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a conveying device for express sorting with automatic counting function includes a conveying mechanism 1, a scanning mechanism 2, and a cleaning mechanism 3. The cleaning mechanism 3 includes a second support 31 and a cleaning roller 38. Threaded rods 32 are rotatably connected to both sides of the inner side of the second support 31. Movable frames 33 are threadedly connected to the outer periphery of each threaded rod 32. Pulleys 34 are fixedly connected to the upper ends of each threaded rod 32. Pulleys 34 are arranged on both sides inside the transmission belt 35. A motor 36 is fixedly connected to the upper end of one side of the pulley 34. A motor frame 37 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the motor 36. Both ends of the cleaning roller 38 are rotatably connected to the inside of the movable frame 33. A second motor 310 is fixedly connected to the front end of one side of the cleaning roller 38. Gears 39 are fixedly connected to the outer periphery of the end of the cleaning roller 38 closest to the second motor 310.

[0021] In this embodiment, the lower end of bracket 2 31 is fixedly connected to the middle of the upper end of the cleaning conveyor belt 17, and the lower end of motor frame 37 is fixedly connected to the middle of the upper end of bracket 2 31 away from the scanning mechanism 2. Adjacent gears 39 mesh with each other, and the sides of the moving frame 33 that are away from each other are slidably connected to the middle of the inner sides of bracket 2 31. The scanning mechanism 2 includes bracket 1 21. A barcode scanner 22 is provided in the middle of the upper end of bracket 1 21 near the return conveyor belt 19. A height scanner 23 is provided in the middle of the upper end of bracket 1 21 away from the return conveyor belt 19. A control display 24 is provided in the middle of the upper end of bracket 1 21. The lower end of bracket 1 21 is fixedly connected to the middle of the upper end of the input conveyor belt 11. The barcode scanner 22, height scanner 23, turning conveyor platform 12, motor 1 36, and motor 2 310 are all electrically connected to the control display 24 through wires.

[0022] Specifically, the staff first places the express box at the left end of the input conveyor belt 11, which then transports the express box to the lower end of the scanning mechanism 2. The barcode scanner 22 is activated to scan the barcode on the express box and sends the scanning result to the control display 24. If the scan result is unclear, the height scanner 23 is activated to scan the height of the express box. Then, the first steering conveyor platform 12 is activated to transport the express box to the upper end of the transfer conveyor belt 15. The second steering conveyor platform 16 then transports the express box to the upper end of the cleaning conveyor belt 17. At the same time, the first motor 36 and the second motor 310 are activated, which drive the front and rear sides through the transmission belt 35 and pulley 34. The threaded rod 32 rotates, which in turn drives the cleaning roller 38 to descend to the top of the express box via the moving frame 33. At the same time, the gear 39 drives all the cleaning rollers 38 to rotate, cleaning the barcode on the express box, removing dust and debris from the top of the barcode, and then transferring it to the top of the input conveyor belt 11 via the turning conveyor platform 18 and the return conveyor belt 19 for re-scanning. Through the cooperation of the conveying mechanism 1, the scanning mechanism 2 and the cleaning mechanism 3, when the barcode on the express box is not clearly scanned, the barcode is automatically cleaned and re-scanned, eliminating some of the simpler ones, thus reducing the amount of manual processing and lowering the difficulty of manual processing.

[0023] In this embodiment, the conveying mechanism 1 includes an input conveyor belt 11, a return conveyor belt 19, and a second turning conveyor platform 16. A first turning conveyor platform 12 is provided at the end of the input conveyor belt 11 away from the return conveyor belt 19. An output conveyor belt 13 is provided at the end of the first turning conveyor platform 12 away from the input conveyor belt 11. An output conveyor belt 14 is provided at the end of the first turning conveyor platform 12 away from the second turning conveyor platform 16. A transfer conveyor belt 15 is provided at the end of the transfer conveyor belt 15 away from the first turning conveyor platform 12. A second turning conveyor platform 16 is provided at the end of the second turning conveyor platform 16 away from the return conveyor belt 19. A third turning conveyor platform 18 is provided at the end of the clean conveyor belt 17 away from the return conveyor belt 19. A return conveyor belt 19 is provided at the end of the third turning conveyor platform 18 away from the input conveyor belt 11.

[0024] Specifically, when the second scan yields a result, the turning conveyor platform 12 is activated to transport the express box to the upper end of the output conveyor belt 13 to continue sorting. If the second scan still does not yield a result, the turning conveyor platform 12 is activated to transport the express box to the upper end of the output conveyor belt 14 for manual re-application or cleaning of the barcode.

[0025] Working principle:

[0026] The staff first places the express box at the left end of the input conveyor belt 11, which then transports the box to the lower end of the scanning mechanism 2. The barcode scanner 22 is activated to scan the barcode on the express box and sends the scan result to the control display 24. If the scan result is unclear, the height scanner 23 is activated to scan the height of the express box. Then, the first steering conveyor platform 12 is activated to transport the express box to the upper end of the transfer conveyor belt 15. The second steering conveyor platform 16 then transports the express box to the upper end of the cleaning conveyor belt 17. Simultaneously, motors 36 and 310 are activated, driving the threaded rods 32 on the front and rear sides to rotate via the transmission belt 35 and pulley 34. This, in turn, causes the cleaning rollers 38 to descend to the upper end of the express box via the moving frame 33. At the same time, gears 39 drive all the cleaning rollers 38 to rotate. The barcode on the express box is cleaned, removing dust and debris from the top of the barcode. It is then transferred to the top of the input conveyor belt 11 via the turning conveyor platform 3 18 and the return conveyor belt 19 for rescanning. When the second scan yields a result, the turning conveyor platform 12 is activated to transport the express box to the top of the output conveyor belt 13 for further sorting. If the second scan still fails to yield a result, the turning conveyor platform 12 is activated again to transport the express box to the top of the output conveyor belt 2 14 for manual re-labeling or cleaning of the barcode. Through the cooperation of the conveying mechanism 1, the scanning mechanism 2, and the cleaning mechanism 3, when the barcode on the express box is not clearly scanned, it is automatically cleaned and rescanned, eliminating some simpler cleaning tasks and reducing the amount of manual processing required, thus lowering the difficulty of manual processing.
