Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of logistics transportation and sorting, in particular to a sorting frame tipping machine for a sorting center. Background Art
[0002] In some logistics sorting centers, the selected items need to be sorted twice according to business requirements. The first sorting machine is for batch sorting, which sorts the items into designated sorting frames. Then, the sorting frames of each batch are successively dumped onto the loading line of the second sorting machine and then imported into the second sorting machine for order sorting. In traditional logistics centers, a forklift is required to transport the sorted sorting frames at the first sorting machine to the loading station of the second sorting machine, and then manually tipped onto the loading line of the second sorting machine. The efficiency is low and a dedicated operator is needed to complete it.
[0003] In recent years, due to the increasing maturity of AGV technology assisted by artificial intelligence, it has been more and more widely applied. The transportation of the sorted sorting frames from the first sorting machine to the loading station of the second sorting machine can be independently completed by an AGV. No manual forklift is required, which can save labor costs. However, after the sorting frame is transported to the second sorting and loading position, how to unload the items in the sorting frame onto the loading line, the traditional method still uses manual operation, which is time-consuming and laborious, and the production efficiency cannot be satisfied.

[0022] The following further describes the utility model with reference to the drawings.
[0023] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, a vertically arranged annular ring 2 is provided at the upper end of a fixed support 1. A horizontally arranged conveying device 3 is arranged inside the annular ring 2. A clamping plate 4 is arranged above the conveying device 3. The front and rear sides of the lower end of the annular ring 2 respectively abut against redirecting wheels 5. A driving wheel 6 is arranged at the lower end of the redirecting wheel 5. One side of the driving wheel 6 is connected to a driving mechanism I 7. A synchronous belt 8 is arranged outside the annular ring 2. The synchronous belt 8 sequentially passes through one side of the annular ring 2, the front-side redirecting wheel 5, the driving wheel 6, the rear-side redirecting wheel 5, and the other side of the annular ring 2, and is fixed on the surface of the annular ring 2.
[0024] The redirecting wheel 5 is fixed to the upper end of the fixed support 1, and the driving wheel 6 is fixed within the fixed support 1.
[0025] There are two clamping plates 4, and the two clamping plates 4 are arranged oppositely.
[0026] The lower end of the clamping plate 4 is connected to the ball screw 9 through a connecting block, and one end of the ball screw 9 is connected to the driving mechanism II 10. A linear slide rail 11 is provided at the lower end of the clamping plate 4 to play a guiding role.
[0027] A stop device is provided on one side of the conveying device 3. The stop device includes a stopper 12 and a driving mechanism III 13. A stopper 12 is provided on one side of the conveying device 3, and the lower end of the stopper 12 is connected to the driving mechanism III 13. Specifically, when in use, the driving mechanism III 13 is selected as an electric cylinder. The stopper 12 rises under the thrust of the electric cylinder, so that the full frame stops at an accurate position.
[0028] A travel switch 14 is provided on one side of the annular ring 2.
[0029] Chute plates 15 arranged obliquely are respectively provided at the front and rear ends on the fixed support 1, and the items in the sorting frame 20 slide down through the chute plates 15.
[0030] Auxiliary annular rings 16 are respectively provided on the left and right sides of the annular ring 2, and the inner walls of the auxiliary annular rings 16 are connected to the front and rear ends of the conveying device 3.
[0031] The lower end of the auxiliary annular ring 2 abuts against the support wheel 17, so that the auxiliary annular ring 2 can roll on the support wheel 17. The lower end of the support wheel 17 is fixed to the upper end of the fixed support 1.
[0032] The ball screw 9 and the driving mechanism II 10 are fixed to the fixed plate 18 at the lower end. The inner walls of the auxiliary annular rings 16 are connected to the front and rear ends of the fixed plate 18. Since the inner walls of the auxiliary annular rings 16 are connected to the conveying device 3 and the fixed plate 18, the conveying device 3 and the fixed plate 18 connect the auxiliary annular rings 16 on the left and right sides with the annular ring 2 located in the middle. When the annular ring 2 rotates, the conveying device 3 and the fixed plate 18 drive the auxiliary annular rings 16 to rotate, playing an auxiliary rotation role for the annular ring 2.
[0033] When the present utility model is in use, as Figures 5 to 6 shown, the overall process is as follows: The AGV places the full sorting frame 20 carried over onto the inlet conveyor 21 of the tipping line. The inlet conveyor 21 starts and conveys the full frame to the tipping machine of the present utility model. The tipping machine dumps the items in the sorting frame 20 onto the loading conveyor 23. The empty sorting frame 20 is conveyed to the outlet conveyor 22, and the empty sorting frame 20 is then automatically carried back to the position of the chute of the primary sorting machine by the AGV.
[0034] When the tipping machine is in use, after the sorting frame 20 is conveyed to a proper position by the conveying device 3, it stops at an accurate position under the action of the stopping device. Then, the second driving mechanism 10 drives the ball screw 9 to rotate, and the clamping plate 4 moves along the linear slide rail 11 to clamp the sorting frame 20. The first driving mechanism 7 is started to drive the driving wheel 6 to rotate. The driving wheel 6 drives the annular ring 2 to rotate through the synchronous belt 6, so as to rotate the tipping device. When the travel switch 14 in place is triggered, the tipping mechanism stops operating. At this time, the items in the sorting frame 20 will slide down to the loading line through the chute plate 15. After the tipping is completed, the tipping device rotates in the reverse direction to the horizontal position, the stopping device is reset, the clamping plate 4 is loosened, and the conveying device 3 conveys the empty sorting frame 20 to the outlet conveyor 22, completing a movement cycle.
