DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] The converging machine includes a frame 1, a conveying roller group 2 installed on the frame, a driving mechanism 3 for driving the conveying roller group 2 to rotate, and a supporting leg 4 for supporting the frame 1. The frame 1 includes a conveying steering bracket 11, a docking bracket 12 connected to the conveying steering bracket 11, a docking incision 13 and a protective plate 14 provided on the docking bracket 12. The conveying roller group 2 includes a plurality of main conical rollers 21 of equal length provided on the conveying steering bracket 11 and a plurality of auxiliary conical rollers 22 provided on the docking bracket 12. The plurality of main conical rollers 21 are arranged in a fan shape to form a main steering roller section, and the plurality of auxiliary conical rollers 22 form an auxiliary steering roller section. The lengths of the plurality of auxiliary conical rollers 22 gradually become shorter along the direction of the docking incision 13. When the conveyed material enters, it is conveyed by the main steering roller section and cooperates with the protective plate 14 to complete the main steering. The auxiliary steering roller section cooperates with the main steering roller section to convey and complete the auxiliary steering.
[0024] The protective plate 14 includes an outer protective plate 111 and an end inner protective plate 112 arranged on the conveying steering bracket 11 and a tail inner protective plate 121 arranged on the docking bracket 12. When the conveyed material enters, it is conveyed by the main steering roller section and cooperates with the outer protective plate 111 to complete the main steering.
[0025] The distance between the outer protective plate 111 and the main conical roller 21 gradually becomes smaller as it approaches the docking bracket 12. The outer protective plate 111 is fixedly connected to the top of the conveying steering bracket 11, and the inner protective plate 121 is fixedly connected to the top of the docking bracket 12. The docking bracket 12 and the conveying steering bracket 11 are integrally formed, with the inner protective plate 121 at the tail.
[0026] There are six main conical rollers 21 , which are distributed in a fan shape to form a main turning roller segment; there are eight auxiliary conical rollers 22 , which form an auxiliary turning roller segment.
[0027] A main support plate 23 is provided between two adjacent main conical rollers 21, and the main support plate 23 is fixedly connected to the conveying steering bracket 11; an auxiliary support plate 24 is provided between two adjacent auxiliary conical rollers 22, and the auxiliary support plate 24 is fixedly connected to the docking bracket 12. The main support plate 23 and the auxiliary support plate 24 can support the material.
[0028] The driving mechanism 3 includes two belt grooves for installing a transmission belt on each main conical roller 21 and each auxiliary conical roller 22, a transmission belt transmission connection between two adjacent main conical rollers 21, a transmission belt transmission connection between two adjacent auxiliary conical rollers 22, and a driving motor for driving the main conical roller 21 and the auxiliary conical roller 22 to rotate. In this way, under the action of the driving mechanism 3, the main conical roller 21 can be driven to rotate for conveying and the auxiliary conical roller 22 can be driven to complete the diversion of the material.
[0029] A plurality of deviation-correcting wheels 5 are mounted on one end of the rear inner protection plate 121 away from the end inner protection plate 112 .
[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, support legs 5 with adjustable heights are installed at the four corners of the bottom of the rack 1 , and the support legs 5 support and fix the rack 1 .
[0031] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, a plurality of correcting wheels 5 are installed at one end of the tail inner protection plate 121 away from the end inner protection plate 112;
[0032] The outer protective plate 111 and the end inner protective plate 112 are arranged as arc structures, and the tail inner protective plate 121 is a horizontal structure. One end of the tail inner protective plate 121 is fixedly mounted on the end inner protective plate 112 by screws, and the bottom of the other end of the tail inner protective plate 121 is fixedly mounted on the docking bracket 2 by screws through a connecting rod. This arrangement enables the tail inner protective plate 121 to be staggered with the docking bracket 2 at one end away from the end inner protective plate 112 and extend to the top of the vertical conveyor belt. The position of the correcting wheel 5 is also fixed above the vertical conveyor belt. This arrangement can correct the position of the inclined material under the action of the correcting wheel 5.
[0033] The converging machine is installed as a whole at the 90-degree converging position of the logistics sorting line, and a side panel on the top of the vertical conveyor belt at the converging position of the sorting line is provided with an opening for transferring materials. When in use: under the rotation of multiple main conical rollers 21, the materials are transferred from the transverse conveyor belt to the interior of the converging machine, and the materials are transported when the multiple main conical rollers 21 rotate and cooperate with the outer protective plate 111 to complete the main steering. The materials that have completed the main steering can be transported and assisted in steering when passing through the auxiliary conical roller 22. The trajectory of the materials is as follows Figure 5 As shown, the trajectory during the transmission process of the merger is inclined transmission and steering. After being transmitted by the merger, the material is inclined on the vertical conveyor belt and moves in the direction of the arrow. When the material passes through the correcting wheel 5, the correcting wheel 5 contacts the inclined side of the material to correct the position of the material. Therefore, the material completes steering and automatic merging while being conveyed.
[0034] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, specifically, the support leg 5 with adjustable height includes an L-shaped bracket 41 fixedly mounted on the conveying steering bracket 11 and the docking bracket 12, a movable leg 42 is fixedly mounted on the L-shaped bracket 41, the movable leg 42 is slidably connected to the fixed leg 43, the bottom of the fixed leg 43 is fixedly connected to a bottom plate 44, the bottom plate 44 is fixedly connected to the base 410, and the base 410 supports the support leg 5 as a whole. In order to improve the anti-slip performance of the base 410, an anti-slip pad can be installed on the bottom of the base 410 or an anti-slip groove can be provided on the bottom of the base 410;
[0035] The top of the bottom plate 44 is rotatably connected to a threaded rod 45 via a bearing. An L-shaped plate 46 is fixedly mounted on the movable leg 42. A through hole is opened in the middle of one end of the L-shaped plate 46. The L-shaped plate 46 is sleeved on the threaded rod 45 through the through hole. The diameter of the through hole is larger than that of the threaded rod 45. This arrangement facilitates the movement of the L-shaped plate 46.
[0036] An upper nut 47 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 45. The upper nut 47 is located above the L-shaped plate 46. A lower nut 48 is threadedly connected to the threaded rod 45. The lower nut 48 is located below the L-shaped plate 46. The upper nut 47 and the lower nut 48 are used to support and fix the position of the L-shaped plate 46. The upper nut 47 can also prevent the L-shaped plate 46 from separating from the threaded rod 45.
[0037] A sliding groove 49 is provided in the middle of the fixed leg 43, and a sliding rod is slidably connected to the interior of the sliding groove 49, and the sliding rod is fixedly connected to the L-shaped plate 46;
[0038] When adjusting the height of the support leg 5, first rotate the upper nut 47 to the highest point of the threaded rod 45, then slide the movable leg 42 upward, and the movable leg 42 slides upward inside the fixed leg 43. During the movable leg 42 moves, it drives the L-shaped plate 46 to move upward. During the upward movement, the L-shaped plate 46 can drive the sliding rod to slide upward in the sliding groove 49 provided in the fixed leg 43. When the movable leg 42 moves to the appropriate height, first rotate the lower nut 48 to the bottom of the L-shaped plate 46, and the lower nut 48 presses against the L-shaped plate 46 plays a supporting role to prevent it from sinking, and then the upper nut 47 is rotated and moved to the top position of the L-shaped plate 46. At this time, the position of the L-shaped plate 46 can be fixed with the cooperation of the upper nut 47 and the lower nut 48. Since the L-shaped plate 46 is fixedly installed on the movable support leg 42, the position of the movable support leg 42 is fixed. At this time, the height of the support leg 5 is adjusted. At the same time, since the height of the support leg 5 can be adjusted, the converging machine can be installed at the 90-degree converging position of the logistics sorting lines at different heights under the action of the support leg 5.
[0039] In summary, the present invention can realize the material transmission by installing the merging machine at the 90-degree merging position of the logistics sorting line and can also realize the turning process, so that the materials at the 90-degree merging position of the sorting line can be directly merged. Compared with the traditional use of transplanting machines, the redirection efficiency is improved. At the same time, the traditional bending machine and merging machine are replaced with the merging machine of the present application, which reduces the number of devices used and reduces the area occupied by the equipment. Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it can be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
