[0040] In addition, in the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, “a plurality of” means two or more.

[0041] Figure 1 The following is a schematic diagram of the structure of the sorting device of the present invention. Figure 1 The attached drawings in the figure serve as a reference for the direction. Figure 1 In the figure, the length direction of the rack 1 is defined as the left-right direction, the width direction of the rack 1 is defined as the front-back direction, and the package supply table 4 is located at the front side of the rack 1; the height direction of the rack 1 is defined as the up-down direction.

[0042] like Figure 1As shown, the utility model provides a sorting trolley 7 and a sorting device with an anti-drop function. The sorting device includes a package supply platform 4, a lifting and conveying mechanism 5, a frame 1, a translation rail 2, a translation transmission unit and a sorting trolley 7. A plurality of translation rails 2 are arranged in the frame 1 at intervals along the up and down directions, and a blanking chute 6 is installed on each of the front and back sides of the frame 1. The translation rail 2 extends in the left and right directions, and the translation transmission unit includes a translation driving wheel, a translation driven wheel and a translation transmission member arranged between the translation driving wheel and the translation driven wheel. The translation transmission member is connected to the sorting trolley 7 and is parallel to the length direction of the translation rail 2 (i.e., the left and right direction). When the translation driving wheel rotates under external drive, the translation transmission member drives the sorting trolley 7 to move along the translation rail 2. A pickup station 3 is provided in the middle of the translation track 2 for the sorting trolley 7 to receive materials. A package supply platform 4 is provided at the pickup station 3, which is located near the middle of the translation track 2 and in front of the frame 1. The lifting and conveying mechanism 5 is provided between the package supply platform 4 and the frame 1.

[0043] The above-mentioned translation driving wheel and translation driven wheel are selected from pulleys or sprockets, and the translation transmission member can be a transmission member such as a cable, rope, belt or chain that can convert the rotational motion of the wheel into translational motion.

[0044] like Figure 2 As shown, the sorting trolley 7 includes a bracket, on which are provided two rollers 71 spaced apart and parallel to each other in the front-to-back direction, each roller 71 extending in the left-to-right direction. A conveyor belt 72 is provided between the two rollers 71. Specifically, the rollers 71 rotate under the drive of a rotary drive source, or the rollers 71 are motorized rollers. When the rollers 71 rotate, the conveyor belt 72 can be driven to move forward or backward. The bracket also includes two baffles 76, which extend along the length direction (i.e., the front-to-back direction) of the conveyor belt 72. The two baffles 76 are arranged on both sides of the conveyor belt 72 along the width direction (i.e., the left-to-right direction) of the conveyor belt 72, and form a first opening 741 between the baffles 76 and the front end of the conveyor belt 72, and a second opening 742 between the baffles 76 and the rear end of the conveyor belt 72. The bracket is also provided with a plurality of translation wheels 75. The translation wheels 75 are arranged in grooves on the translation track 2, and can move along the translation track 2.

[0045] The sorting trolley 7 further includes a blocking portion 73 for blocking materials placed on the conveyor belt 72 from passing through the first opening 741 and / or the second opening 742 .

[0046] In the first embodiment of the sorting cart 7, the blocking portion 73 is mounted on a bracket. The blocking portion 73 comprises two blocking units, one located at a first opening 741 and the other at a second opening 742. Each blocking unit comprises a gate 731 and a drive source 74, which is used to drive the gate 731 toward or away from the first opening 741 or the second opening 742. The drive source 74 can be a linear displacement drive source or a rotational drive source.

[0047] When the driving source 74 is a linear displacement driving source, it drives the gate 731 to move up and down, allowing the gate 731 to move back and forth in a straight line within the range from the bottom of the first opening 741 / second opening 742 to the top of the first opening 741 / second opening 742. When the sorting trolley 7 receives / delivers materials, the driving source 74 drives the gate 731 to rise above the first opening 741 / second opening 742, and the materials can smoothly pass through the first opening 741 / second opening 742 to enter or leave the conveyor belt 72; when the sorting trolley 7 transports materials, the driving source 74 drives the gate 731 to fall to the bottom of the first opening 741 / second opening 742, and the materials placed on the conveyor belt 72 will be blocked by the gate 731 and cannot fall down through the first opening 741 / second opening 742. The linear displacement driving source can specifically be a screw motor, an electromagnet, etc.

[0048] like Figure 2 As shown, when the driving source 74 is a rotary driving source, it drives the gate 731 to rotate, allowing the gate 731 to rotate within the range from the bottom of the first opening 741 / second opening 742 to the left / right side of the first opening 741 / second opening 742. When the sorting trolley 7 receives / delivers materials, the driving source 74 drives the gate 731 to rotate to the left / right side of the first opening 741 / second opening 742, and the materials can smoothly pass through the first opening 741 / second opening 742 and enter or leave the conveyor belt 72; when the sorting trolley 7 transports materials, the driving source 74 drives the gate 731 to rotate to the bottom of the first opening 741 / second opening 742, and the materials placed on the conveyor belt 72 will be blocked by the gate 731 and cannot fall down through the first opening 741 / second opening 742. The rotary driving source can specifically be a stepper motor or a servo motor.

[0049] In the first embodiment of the sorting cart 7, the number of gates 731 and drive sources 74 in each blocking unit can be adjusted as needed. Each blocking unit can include two gates 731 and two drive sources 74, which are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the first opening 741 / second opening 742, and each drive source 74 drives a gate 731 to move up and down or rotate.

[0050] like Figure 3As shown, the difference between the second embodiment of the sorting trolley 7 and the first embodiment is that the blocking portion 73 is provided on the conveyor belt 72 and includes a plurality of blocking members 733 spaced along the length of the conveyor belt 72. The blocking members 733 extend along the width of the conveyor belt 72 and may be in the form of strips, plates, blocks, columns, or irregular shapes. When the sorting trolley 7 receives or delivers materials, the rollers drive the conveyor belt 72 forward, causing one blocking member 733 to be located at the bottom of the conveyor belt 72 and the other blocking member 733 to be located at the top of the conveyor belt 72. This allows materials to smoothly pass through the first opening 741 / second opening 742 and enter or exit the conveyor belt 72. When the sorting trolley 7 transports materials, the rollers drive the conveyor belt 72 backward. At this time, both blocking members 733 are located at the top of the conveyor belt 72, and the materials are located between the two blocking members 733. The forward and backward movement of the materials is blocked by the blocking members 733, preventing them from falling through the first opening 741 / second opening 742.

[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, when the sorting device of the present invention is working, the package supply platform 4 supplies materials to the lifting and conveying mechanism 5, and the lifting and conveying mechanism 5 performs lifting and lowering movements to distribute the materials to the sorting trolleys 7 on the translation rails 2 at different heights. After the sorting trolley 7 receives the materials, the translation transmission unit drives the sorting trolley 7 to move left and right along the translation rail 2. The sorting trolley 7 transports the materials, so that the materials quickly arrive at any specified position in the length direction of the translation rail 2, and then the sorting trolley 7 delivers the materials, so that the materials enter the blanking chute 6 to complete the blanking.

[0052] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and replacements can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present invention. These improvements and replacements should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
