Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of storage equipment, in particular to a material dividing device for a vertical warehouse. Background Art

[0002] A high-bay warehouse is a storage system that uses vertical space to store goods and uses automated equipment to access and manage goods. As a form of storage that efficiently utilizes space and improves storage capacity, it has been widely used in various industries.

[0003] In current warehousing and logistics systems, especially in high-bay warehouses, the process of sorting goods on the conveyor bus often involves complex operations. After the material information is identified by a barcode scanning device, it is necessary to rely on a rotary conveyor to adjust the direction and then transport it to different conveyor branches. However, this process requires the rotary conveyor to descend, rotate, and ascend, which not only increases the mechanical complexity but also significantly reduces the sorting efficiency. To this end, we propose a sorting device for high-bay warehouses. Utility Model Content

[0023] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings 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 shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] Refer to the attached Figure 1-4 A material distribution device for a vertical warehouse includes a roller conveyor bus 1 and several roller conveyor branches 3. The goods on the second floor fall to the first floor and are transported through the roller conveyor bus 1. Several rotating roller conveyors 2 are arranged in the roller conveyor bus 1. A code scanning device is provided at the feeding end of the roller conveyor bus 1 near the rotating roller conveyor 2 to identify the QR code on the surface of the goods. Each rotating roller conveyor 2 is correspondingly arranged at the feeding end of a different roller conveyor branch 3 to realize the transportation of the goods on the roller conveyor bus 1 to different roller conveyor branches 3 respectively.

[0025] When in use, the code scanning device on the roller conveyor bus 1 identifies the QR code of the goods to determine which roller conveyor branch line 3 the goods should enter. When the goods move to the corresponding rotating roller conveyor 2, the rotating roller conveyor 2 rotates to transport the goods to the corresponding roller conveyor branch line 3, thereby realizing material separation conveniently and quickly.

[0026] The rotating roller conveyor 2 includes a bracket 21, a rotatable rotating disk 22 is provided on the top of the bracket 21, and a conveying roller assembly 23 is provided on the top of the rotating disk 22. The conveying roller assembly 23 initially has the same conveying direction as the conveying rollers on the roller conveyor bus 1. The rotating action of the rotating disk 22 drives the conveying roller assembly 23 to rotate synchronously, thereby realizing the direction adjustment of the material carried on the top thereof;

[0027] A support roller 24 that can tilt and move up and down is provided at the bottom of the rotating disk 22. The support roller 24 can tilt and move upward to below the discharge end of the conveying roller assembly 23 when needed, providing the necessary bottom support for the material during the rotating feeding process;

[0028] When the rotary roller conveyor 2 rotates, the conveying roller assembly 23 drives the goods on it to rotate. At this time, the conveying direction of the conveying roller assembly 23 is the same as the conveying direction of the conveying roller on the roller conveyor branch line 3. Then the support roller 24 is controlled to move obliquely upward to the discharge end position of the conveying roller assembly 23. The conveying roller assembly 23 rotates to convey the goods on it through the top of the support roller 24 to the roller conveyor branch line 3. At this time, the material separation is completed. During this process, the conveying roller assembly 23 does not need to perform lifting actions, which significantly shortens the material separation and conveying cycle, thereby greatly improving the separation efficiency and ensuring the smoothness and efficiency of logistics operations.

[0029] Preferably, the end of the roller conveyor branch line 3 close to the roller conveyor main line 1 is perpendicular to it, so as to facilitate the quantitative rotation of the rotary roller conveyor 2.

[0030] The support plates 251 are symmetrically provided on the bracket 21, and each support plate 251 is inclined with an inclined groove 252. The inclined grooves 252 on both sides are slidably connected with a slide bar 253, and the two inclined grooves 252 are provided with a spring 254 connected to the slide bar 253, which is used to provide a reset force for the slide bar 253. A connecting frame 255 is provided on the slide bar 253, and the connecting frame 255 is rotatably connected to the support roller 24 that can move up and down. The support roller 24 can adjust its position by sliding the slide bar 253 in the inclined groove 252, pushing the connecting frame 255. At this time, the connecting frame 255 will move along the direction of the inclined groove 252 under the restriction of the slide bar 253, further making the support roller 24 move to the position of the unloading end of the rotating roller conveyor 2 to support the bottom of the goods, avoiding the conveying roller assembly 23 being too short, affecting the movement of the goods from the top of the rotating roller conveyor 2 to the top of the roller conveyor branch line 3.

[0031] In this embodiment, a rotating motor 26 is provided on the bracket 21, and the output end of the rotating motor 26 is connected to the bottom of the rotating disk 22. The outer wall of the output end of the rotating motor 26 is provided with a cam 27 abutting against the side wall of the connecting frame 255, so that the connecting frame 255 is pushed to move along the inclined groove 252 during the rotation of the cam 27. The rotating motor 26 is started. At this time, the output end of the rotating motor 26 drives the rotating disk 22 and the cam 27 to rotate. During the process of the conveying roller assembly 23 driving the goods to rotate, the cam 27 will push the connecting frame 255 to move, and further make the support roller 24 move to the unloading position of the conveying roller assembly 23 to support the bottom of the goods, thereby achieving the effect of automatic control.

[0032] In this embodiment, the inclined groove 252 is a square groove, and the shape of the slide rod 253 inserted into the inclined groove 252 is adapted to the square groove to prevent the slide rod 253 from rotating relative to the inclined groove 252, causing the support roller 24 to tilt and affecting the support of the support roller 24 to the bottom of the cargo.

[0033] Refer to the attached Figure 1 In this embodiment, a rotating roller conveyor 2 is provided in each roller conveyor branch line 3, and a roller conveyor adjustment line 4 is provided between adjacent roller conveyor branch lines 3. The roller conveyor adjustment line 4 is located between adjacent rotating roller conveyors 2 and is used to realize the mutual transportation of goods on adjacent roller conveyor branch lines 3. When the front code scanning device fails to scan the QR code on the surface of the goods or fails, the subsequent code scanning device scans the QR code on the surface of the goods. When it is found that the goods should be on the roller conveyor branch line 3 on the front side, the goods directly enter the roller conveyor branch line 3, and then pass through the rotating roller conveyor 2 and the roller conveyor adjustment line 4 on the roller conveyor branch line 3 to the front side to be transported to the appropriate roller conveyor branch line 3, which is convenient for recalibrating goods with scanning errors or scanning failures, significantly enhancing the accuracy of material sorting and improving the efficiency and reliability of the overall operation.
