The lifting screw is vertically arranged and arranged along the height direction of the lifting frame 4. The lifting screw is driven to rotate by the output shaft of the lifting motor 51. Since the lifting block 52 is threadedly matched with the lifting screw, when the lifting screw rotates, the lifting block 52 can move up or down along the lifting screw, thereby driving the sorting trolley 3 to move up or down, corresponding to the corresponding grid opening, so as to facilitate the accurate delivery of the parcels on the sorting trolley 3 and complete the sorting of the parcels.

[0033] In actual use, the lifting device 5 can be a motor-driven synchronous belt structure, specifically, the output shaft of the lifting motor 51 can be connected to a synchronous belt, and the synchronous belt drives the lifting block 52 to lift and lower, thereby realizing the lifting and lowering of the sorting trolley 3. Among them, the motor drives the movement of the structure on the synchronous belt that cooperates with it is an existing common technology, which will not be repeated here. Similarly, the lifting device 5 can also use a cylinder or other methods to realize the lifting and lowering of the sorting trolley 3 on the lifting frame.

[0034] The above are only preferred implementations of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the creative concept of the present invention, which all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
