[0025] Referring to Figures 1-5 , an embodiment of the present utility model provides a sorting device for e-commerce items, which includes: a first conveyor table 1 for conveying items of different types and weights. One end of the first conveyor table 1 is fixedly connected to a third conveyor table 3 for specifically transporting items of a certain weight. The rear surfaces of the first conveyor table 1 and the third conveyor table 3 are fixedly connected to an operation table 4 for setting structures for clamping and transferring overweight items. The inner top surface of the operation table 4 is fixedly connected to a connecting cross plate for fixing and supporting a lead screw 7 and a servo motor. The side surface of the connecting cross plate is fixedly connected to a servo motor to provide a power source for the servo motor. The output end of the servo motor is fixedly connected to a lead screw 7 for driving the movement of a moving block 71 and a mechanical gripper 8. The surface of the lead screw 7 is fixedly connected to the moving block 71 through a lead screw nut for driving the movement of the mechanical gripper 8. The front surface of the moving block 71 is provided with a moving groove 72 for supporting a connecting rod 9 and coordinating the movement of the mechanical gripper 8 from a high platform to a low platform. A connecting rod 9 is slidably connected inside the moving groove 72 for fixing the mechanical gripper 8. One end of the connecting rod 9 away from the moving groove 72 is fixedly connected to a sliding rod for moving in a high-low track 61. The surface of the connecting rod 9 is fixedly connected to a mechanical gripper 8 for clamping items and assisting in safely moving oversized and heavy items to the third conveyor table 3. The front end surface of the operation table 4 is fixedly connected to a fixing plate 6, and the surface of the fixing plate 6 is provided with a high-low track 61 for setting a path for assisting the movement of the mechanical gripper 8.

[0026] The inner side of the operating table 4 is fixedly connected with a connecting plate 12. The connecting plate 12 and the bottom surface of the moving block 71 are set to be slidably connected, which helps the moving block 71 maintain stability during movement and enhances the supporting force of the moving block 71, ensuring the stability and firmness of the movement of the connecting rod 9. The height of the third transfer table 3 is lower than that of the first transfer table 1. The height difference between the first transfer table 1 and the third transfer table 3 corresponds to the high-low track 61, facilitating the mechanical gripper 8 to maintain the corresponding movement path and movement stability when transferring items. The side of the first transfer table 1 is fixedly connected with a second transfer table 2 for sorting and separating light-category items. Inside the first transfer table 1, a gravity sensing platform 5 is fixedly installed. Inside the gravity sensing platform 5, a weight sensor is provided for distinguishing which items need to be transferred by the mechanical gripper 8. The rear surface of the first transfer table 1 is fixedly connected with a push plate 10 through an electric push rod. The position of the push plate 10 is directly in front of the second transfer table 2, used to push the light-category items onto the second transfer table 2, enabling items of different weights to be classified and transferred to corresponding places. A centering clamp plate 11 is arranged directly below the mechanical gripper 8 on the first transfer table 1, facilitating the mechanical gripper 8 to accurately grip the items. The lead screw 7 and the connecting cross plate are set to be rotatably connected, and the sliding rod and the high-low track 61 are set to be slidably connected, both playing the roles of support and movement. A sloping panel is fixedly connected at the connection between the first transfer table 1 and the third transfer table 3, and a baffle is fixedly connected to the side of the third transfer table 3. It is used to prevent larger heavy objects from directly falling onto the third transfer table 3 during transfer and causing damage, playing a buffering role between the two high-low platforms.

[0027] Working principle: When using the sorting device for e-commerce items, when items of different types and weights are conveyed from one end of the first transfer table 1 to the surface of the gravity sensing platform 5, they are identified by the weight sensor provided inside. Items with a certain weight are conveyed under the operating table. First, the heavy objects are aligned by the centering clamp plate, enabling the mechanical gripper 8 to accurately grip them. Then, the servo motor drives the rotation of the lead screw 7, causing the moving block 72 to move towards the third transfer table 3. During the movement of the connecting rod 9 connected to the mechanical gripper 8 within the high-low track 61, the end of the connecting rod 9 located inside the moving groove 72 moves from the high position to the low position of the moving groove 72, enabling the mechanical gripper 8 to transfer the heavy objects from the first transfer table 1 to the third transfer table 3. Smaller-sized items are directly placed on the third transfer table 3, and larger-sized items can be buffered and moved to the third transfer table 3 through the sloping panel, effectively avoiding damage to the outer packaging and internal goods of the items. At the same time, light-category items are pushed onto the second transfer table 2 by the push plate 10 for subsequent operations. A reasonable distance needs to be set between the second transfer table 2 and the operating table 4 to prevent the accumulation of goods.

[0028] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made without departing from the gist of the present utility model within the scope of knowledge possessed by those of ordinary skill in the relevant art.
