[0030] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 4 According to an embodiment of the utility model, the airport checked baggage handling system includes a main baggage handling system, which includes a plurality of horizontal conveyor belts for conveying checked baggage. The main baggage handling system also includes a spiral conveyor belt 1000 for conveying checked baggage to different floors. The spiral conveyor belt 1000 is respectively connected to two horizontal conveyor belts on adjacent floors. The horizontal conveyor belts include a main conveyor belt (not shown in the figure) and a buffer conveyor belt 2000. The buffer conveyor belt 2000 is arranged at the connection between the outlet of the spiral conveyor belt 1000 and the horizontal conveyor belt. A buffer mechanism is arranged on the side of the buffer conveyor belt 2000 opposite to the outlet of the spiral conveyor belt 1000, and a supporting mechanism is connected to the bottom of the buffer conveyor belt 2000.

[0031] During actual use, the spiral conveyor belt 1000 with a smaller footprint is matched with a buffer conveyor belt 2000 provided at the outlet of the spiral conveyor belt 1000, and the impact force of the checked baggage flowing from the outlet of the spiral conveyor belt 1000 to the buffer conveyor belt 2000 is buffered by a buffer mechanism and a supporting mechanism, thereby effectively protecting the checked baggage and the buffer conveyor belt 2000, increasing their service life, and reducing maintenance costs.

[0032] refer to Figure 4 In one specific embodiment, the buffer conveyor 2000 includes a main frame 2100 and a baffle 2200 connected to the top of the main frame 2100 and located on a side opposite to the outlet of the spiral conveyor 1000, the buffer mechanism is arranged on the baffle 2200, and the supporting mechanism is connected to the bottom of the main frame 2100. Of course, the basic structure of the buffer conveyor 2000 is the same as that of the prior art, that is, it also has a buffer conveyor 2000 body (not shown in the figure) for conveying checked luggage, which is not the focus of this application and will not be repeated here.

[0033] refer to Figure 4 More specifically, the buffer mechanism includes a push plate 3100, which is connected to the baffle 2200 through a buffer cylinder 3200. A buffer air bag 3300 is connected to the side of the push plate 3100 facing the outlet of the spiral conveyor belt 1000. The buffer air bag 3300 is connected to an inflation device (not shown in the figure) through an air pipe, and the inflation device is fixedly connected to the baffle 2200.

[0034] Preferably, there are two buffer cylinders 3200, which are respectively connected to both sides of the push plate 3100. The piston rods of the two buffer cylinders 3200 are rotatably connected to both sides of the push plate 3100. Through the above design, the inclination of the push plate 3100 can be adjusted according to the posture of the checked luggage so that the buffer mechanism can contact the checked luggage with the maximum contact area to provide a better buffering effect.

[0035] refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the support mechanism includes a base 4100, two support cylinders 4200 and a support seat 4300. The cylinder bodies of the two support cylinders 4200 are fixedly connected to the base 4100. The top of the support seat 4300 is connected to the bottom of the main frame 2100. The bottom of the support seat 4300 is provided with two connecting seats 4400 respectively matched with the piston rods of the two support cylinders 4200. The piston rods of the two support cylinders 4200 are respectively rotatably connected with the corresponding connecting seats 4400. The connecting line of the central axis of the two support cylinders 4200 is parallel to the central axis of the outlet of the spiral conveyor 1000. Through the above design, the support cylinder 4200 can absorb the impact force generated when the checked luggage hits the buffer conveyor 2000, and can be adjusted according to the inclination angle of the main conveyor belt connected front and back on the same layer, which has strong adaptability.

[0036] refer to Figure 4 In some of the embodiments, in order to improve the stability of the buffer cylinder 3200 , the buffer air pipe is installed on the base 4100 through the cylinder support 3210 .

[0037] In some of the embodiments, the inflation device, the buffer cylinder 3200 and the support cylinder 4200 are all commonly used technical solutions in the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0038] refer to Figure 4 as well as Figure 5In order to provide a better cushioning effect, specifically, the cushioning airbag 3300 includes a connecting airbag 3310, a plurality of first supporting members, and two main airbags 3330 symmetrically arranged about the central axis of the push plate 3100. The connecting airbag 3310 is detachably fixedly connected to the push plate 3100, the two main airbags 3330 are connected and spaced apart from the connecting airbag 3310, and a plurality of first supporting members are evenly spaced between the two main airbags 3330 and the connecting airbag 3310; there are three inflatable devices, two of which are respectively connected to the two main airbags 3330, and the remaining inflatable devices are connected to the connecting airbag 3310. The checked baggage is first contacted and cushioned by two main airbags 3330 that are not interconnected but connected to each other. The two main airbags 3330 are inflated by independent inflation equipment. The inflation volume of the two main airbags 3330 can be adjusted according to the posture of the checked baggage coming out of the exit, so that it can better adapt to the checked baggage and provide a better cushioning effect. Since the two main airbags 3330 first present a shape of adhesion to the ground to cushion the checked baggage when in contact, the checked baggage continues to impact the cushioning airbag 3300 according to inertia. At this time, the adhesion shape of the main airbag 3330 can make the cushioning airbag 3300 have a larger contact area with the checked baggage, thereby reducing the pressure and sharing the impact force. Subsequently, due to the force transmission through the first supporting member, the connecting airbag 3310 can no longer be so concentrated when squeezed. At the same time, the piston rod of the buffer cylinder 3200 is contracted to further alleviate the impact force of the checked baggage, and the overall cushioning effect is excellent. The detachably connected connecting airbag 3310 can facilitate subsequent maintenance. The detachable technical solution can use the commonly used technical solution in the prior art, which will not be repeated here.

[0039] refer to Figure 5 In order to improve the resilience and generate timely support force, the first support member includes a top plate 3321, a spring 3322 and a bottom plate 3323 connected in sequence, the top plate 3321 is connected to the main airbag 3330, and the bottom plate 3323 is connected to the connecting airbag 3310. Specifically, a connecting position 3340 is provided on both the main airbag 3330 and the connecting airbag 3310, the top plate 3321 is provided in the connecting position 3340 of the main airbag 3330, and the bottom plate 3323 is provided in the connecting position 3340 of the connecting airbag 3310. Through the above design, the force of the spring 3322 can be better applied to the main airbag 3330 and the connecting airbag 3310, avoiding the concentration of impact force and preventing the spring 3322 from displacement during the force application process.

[0040] refer to Figure 6 as well as Figure 7More preferably, the cushioning airbag 3300 further includes a second supporting member, the second supporting member includes a plurality of spring sheets 3351 arranged at intervals and in an arc-shaped structure, both ends of the spring sheet 3351 and the outermost end of the spring sheet 3351 are connected with a sphere 3352, and both the connecting airbag 3310 and the main airbag 3330 are provided with mounting positions for mounting the sphere 3352. Specifically, the mounting position on the connecting airbag 3310 is a first mounting position 3311, and the mounting position on the main airbag 3330 is a second mounting position 3331, the second mounting position 3331 is located at the connection of the two main airbags 3330, the first mounting position 3311 and the second mounting position 3331 are both holes with steps, the spheres 3352 on both ends of the spring sheet 3351 are slidably connected to the first mounting position 3311, and the spheres 3352 on the outermost end of the spring sheet 3351 are slidably connected to the second mounting position 3331. The depth of the first mounting position 3311 is greater than the diameter of the sphere 3352. Through the above design, the spring sheet 3351 can be firmly connected to the main airbag 3330, and at the same time, when it is compressed and deformed, there is displacement space at both ends of the spring sheet 3351. The installation method of the spring sheet 3351 is to connect the sphere 3352 to each corresponding mounting position before the main airbag 3330 and the connecting airbag 3310 are fully inflated, and then the main airbag 3330 and the connecting airbag 3310 are inflated.

[0041] refer to Figure 3 In some specific embodiments, the spiral conveyor belt 1000 includes a spiral inner frame 1100, a spiral conveyor belt 1000 body, and a spiral outer frame 1300 which are sequentially connected from the inside to the outside, and the exit of the spiral conveyor belt 1000 is located at the end of the conveying direction of the spiral conveyor belt 1000 body. The conveyor belt body is composed of a plurality of rollers arranged at intervals. The checked luggage entering the spiral conveyor belt 1000 will slide from top to bottom under the drive of the rollers according to its own weight until it reaches the exit of the spiral conveyor belt 1000 and enters the buffer conveyor belt 2000. No additional power is required, the overall green energy saving, and it also occupies less area.

[0042] refer to Figure 3 In order to make the checked luggage on the spiral conveyor 1000 slide more smoothly, a plurality of rollers 1400 are evenly connected to the spiral outer frame 1300 along the length direction of the spiral outer frame 1300. The rollers 1400 can slide smoothly from top to bottom under the weight of the checked luggage and the structure of the spiral conveyor 1000 by rolling friction with the surface of the checked luggage.
