[0034] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, the principle of the modular narrow-belt sorting machine provided in this embodiment is as follows: when using the device, the specific length of the integrated production line to be installed should be measured first, and then two drive brackets 1 should be installed at the beginning and end of the production line respectively. Then, several sorting conveyor belts 3 are taken out and then connected end to end on both sides using the connecting buckle 10;

[0035] At this time, make sure that the transmission crawler 9 is first sleeved on the dual-axis drive motor 7 at both ends of the mounting block 6, and then the mounting block 6 is snap-fitted and installed on the support bar 18 on the upper surface of the fixing seat 5, and then the ends of the first connecting bar arm 13 and the second connecting bar arm 14 are snapped together, and then the hinge shaft 16 is taken out and inserted into the snap-fitting position of the ends of the first connecting bar arm 13 and the second connecting bar arm 14, and the exposed shaft ends on both sides of the hinge shaft 16 are screwed and fixed through the external hexagonal limiting fixing cap 17, and finally the external hexagonal limiting fixing cap 17 is further fixed to the shaft end of the hinge shaft 16 by bolts. At this time, the above steps can be repeated in sequence to assemble the detachable narrow belt sorting structure 2, and it is snap-fitted and nested on the two driving brackets 1 in the fixed position;

[0036] Then, take out several fixing frames 11 and fix them between the two driving brackets 1 by engaging the mortises 30 and the tenons 31. Then, install the first support rod 25 between the two supporting main legs 21 by bolts, and install the second support rod 33 between the two supporting legs 28 by bolts. Finally, install the sorting bin 12 on the outside of the side plate 26 by engaging the T-shaped protrusions 34 and the T-shaped grooves 32.

[0037] When the device is in operation, the drive motor 23 is driven to rotate the card drive wheel 24, and then the detachable narrow belt sorting structure 2 embedded in the two drive brackets 1 can drive the goods and reverse movement. Then, the intelligent control system scans the goods information for classification. At this time, the sorting conveyor belt 3 located under the goods will be driven by the dual-axis drive motor 7 to convey the goods to the designated sorting port 12, so that the sorting of goods can be completed quickly.

[0038] When it is necessary to expand the production line, shorten the production line, or replace the sorting components due to some special reasons, the redundant fixing frames 11 can be removed or the required fixing frames 11 can be added. At the same time, the redundant sorting conveyor belts 3 can be removed or the required sorting conveyor belts 3 can be added through the connecting buckle 10, so that the length of the detachable narrow-belt sorting structure 2 and the fixing frame 11 can be easily changed at any time according to the needs of the operation, thereby better adapting to various operating environments.

Those skilled in the art should understand that hardware manufacturers may use different terms to refer to the same component. This specification and claims do not use differences in names as a way to distinguish components, but use differences in the functions of the components as the criteria for distinction. For example, "including" mentioned throughout the specification and claims is an open term and should be interpreted as "including but not limited to". "Approximately" means that within an acceptable error range, those skilled in the art can solve technical problems within a certain error range and basically achieve technical effects.

[0040] It should be noted that the terms "include," "comprises," or any other variations thereof are intended to encompass non-exclusive inclusion, such that a product or system comprising a series of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not explicitly listed, or elements inherent to such product or system.
