Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of driving a sorting device, in particular to a driving system for a cyclically operated sorting vehicle. Background Art

[0002] The sorting device is the core of the sorting system. Due to the need for sorting efficiency, a general sorting system needs to be equipped with multiple sorting devices to synchronously perform sorting operations. For example, the sorting system shown in patent CN 218318768 U includes multiple sorting devices, all of which are installed on a rotating frame, and the rotating frame drives all sorting devices to operate synchronously. In this structure, on the one hand, the rotation of the huge rotating frame consumes excess energy, resulting in high overall power consumption of the sorting system. On the other hand, this structure is limited and can only make the sorting device operate along a circular path, which cannot meet the sorting needs of complex paths. Utility Model Content

The bending bracket is Ω-shaped, with its two ends connected to the seat plate and the top connected to the U-shaped roller frame.

[0009] Furthermore, the seat plate connected to the gap limiting mechanism has a flange portion deviating from its main plate portion, and the roller mechanism is mounted on the flange portion.

[0010] Furthermore, the sorting vehicle operates along a circular closed path, and a plurality of the electromagnetic propulsion devices are arranged beside the running path of the sorting vehicle.

[0011] Furthermore, a plurality of the sorting vehicles are connected in series, and each of the sorting vehicles is equipped with the magnetic plate. In this way, there can always be an electromagnetic propulsion device with a corresponding magnetic plate to generate thrust on the magnetic plate, so that all the sorting vehicles can be driven to move.

[0012] Furthermore, an encoder for detecting the displacement of the sorting vehicle is also installed on the second seat plate. The control system can accurately control the walking position of the sorting vehicle based on the data collected by the encoder, so that the sorting vehicle can stop accurately for cargo delivery.

[0013] Furthermore, the sorting vehicle also includes a lifting drive mechanism and a delivery mechanism that can be driven by the lifting drive mechanism to perform lifting movements; the upper and lower sides of the lifting drive mechanism are provided with walking wheel mechanisms for walking along the track.

[0015] Beneficial effects: The drive system of the circularly operated sorting vehicle of the utility model has the following advantages:

[0016] Beneficial effects:

[0017] (1) The magnetic force generated by the fixed electromagnetic propulsion device is used to push the magnetic plate installed on the sorting vehicle to achieve the purpose of driving the sorting vehicle to operate, and the gap limiting mechanism can ensure that the magnetic gap between the electromagnetic propulsion device and the magnetic plate is within a preset range to ensure that the magnetic force generated by the electromagnetic propulsion device can effectively push the magnetic plate to move, thereby preventing the two from contacting and being damaged. The drive system has low power consumption and can meet the layout requirements of complex paths.

[0032] In one embodiment, the gap limiting mechanism 5 includes a roller mechanism arranged on both sides of the magnetic unit, and a bending bracket 53 with elastic deformation ability is connected between the U-shaped roller frame 52 and the seat plate, so that the roller mechanism can adaptively adjust the posture as needed to ensure the contact between the roller 51 and the other seat plate.
