Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sorting device technology, and in particular to a smart logistics warehousing and sorting device. Background Technology

[0002] The descriptions in this section are provided only as background information relating to this disclosure and do not constitute prior art.

[0003] Automated sorting systems for logistics warehousing are an indispensable technology in the modern logistics warehousing industry. They are widely used in e-commerce, express delivery, food industry, and other fields. Especially in the e-commerce industry, due to the large volume and variety of orders, automated sorting systems can greatly improve order processing efficiency and ensure that express deliveries arrive at customers on time. They can improve warehousing efficiency, reduce labor costs, and ensure accurate sorting and timely delivery of goods. Since the size and weight of packages affect sorting efficiency, large packages, due to their weight and irregular shape, require manual handling for sorting, loading, unloading, and transportation in both the sorting and last-mile delivery stages. Moving these large packages from the conveyor belt to the adjacent sorting machine is troublesome, not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, affecting sorting efficiency, but also prone to damage.

[0004] Patent CN113971451A discloses an e-commerce logistics warehousing allocation method, including dividing a sorting belt into blocks of different colors, pre-setting and storing the binding relationship between block color, goods information, and sub-warehouses; scanning to obtain the goods information of the current goods, allocating the goods to the corresponding colored blocks according to the binding relationship between block color and goods information, and conveying them with the sorting belt; a robotic arm wirelessly acquires the binding relationship between block color and sub-warehouses, identifies the block color within its target range during the sorting belt conveyor process, and picks the goods to the corresponding sub-warehouses. This patent has low implementation costs, can systematically monitor the entire process of goods entering and leaving the warehouse, and can allocate warehouse locations and outbound delivery in an orderly and rapid manner, improving work efficiency in the warehousing process. A common problem with existing technologies, including the aforementioned disclosed patent, is that transporting goods from the conveyor to the sorting machine is cumbersome, time-consuming, labor-intensive, and affects sorting efficiency. It also easily leads to damage from bumps and knocks. If sorting is not timely, it can easily cause packages to accumulate and cause blockages, thus requiring a large amount of manpower and resulting in low sorting efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a smart logistics warehousing and sorting device to solve the technical problems of time-consuming and labor-intensive handling and low sorting efficiency in existing sorting devices.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A smart logistics warehousing and sorting device includes:

[0008] A frame is used to mount the conveyor belt and provide support for its rotary conveying.

[0009] The conveyor belt has two ends wound around pulleys to rotate. The pulleys are rotatably mounted on the frame and are driven to rotate by a transmission motor mounted on the frame.

[0010] A sorting mechanism, mounted on a frame for transferring goods on a conveyor belt, includes:

[0011] The slide rail is mounted on the frame and extends in a direction parallel to the conveyor belt's conveying direction.

[0012] The bearing seat is slidably mounted on the slide rail;

[0013] The transfer plate is mounted on the bearing seat and rotates relative to the bearing seat.

[0014] Furthermore, a rotating shaft is installed inside the bearing seat, and one end of the transfer plate is connected to the rotating shaft via a connecting plate. The bearing seat is provided with a clearance groove to avoid the connecting plate.

[0015] Furthermore, both ends of the rotating shaft are fixedly installed relative to the shaft seat, and one end of the connecting plate is rotatably installed with the rotating shaft via a thread. When the connecting plate rotates around the rotating shaft, the connecting plate can rise and fall during the rotation process.

[0016] Furthermore, both ends of the rotating shaft are fixedly installed relative to the shaft seat, and one end of the connecting plate is rotatably installed with the rotating shaft through a bearing. When the connecting plate rotates around the rotating shaft, the connecting plate achieves horizontal rotation.

[0017] Furthermore, a slider and a locking block are provided at the bottom of the bearing seat. The locking block is located at the bottom of the slider, and the slider is slidably installed with a groove provided on the slide rail. The locking block is embedded in the groove and slidably installed.

[0018] Furthermore, the locking block is configured as an inverted dovetail shape or an inverted T-shape, and the groove on the slide rail is configured to slide and engage with the locking block.

[0019] Furthermore, the transfer plate includes a horizontally arranged main board and a transfer plate at a certain angle to the main board, wherein the angle between the transfer plate and the main board is α, and 5° < α < 20°.

[0020] Furthermore, the motherboard is provided with several anti-slip strips, the extension direction of which is tangent to the rotation direction of the transfer plate.

[0021] Furthermore, the ferry board is provided with several ferry wheels, which are rotatably mounted on the ferry board via shafts, and the height of the ferry wheel protruding from the ferry board is H, where 5mm < H < 10mm.

[0022] Furthermore, the slide rail has a Z-shaped cross-section, with an included angle of β at the bend of the Z-shape, where β = 90°. The two sides of one of the right angles of the slide rail are respectively attached to the horizontal and vertical surfaces of the frame.

[0023] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0024] (1) By setting up a sorting mechanism, this utility model uses slide rails and bearing seats to realize the movement and rotation of the transfer plate along the direction of goods transportation, thereby achieving the purpose of supporting and transferring the goods on the conveyor belt through the transfer plate, which greatly improves the efficiency of goods transfer and reduces the risk of high labor intensity and easy collision damage of manual handling.

[0025] (2) By setting the connection relationship between the rotating shaft and the connecting plate, this utility model facilitates the rotation of the transfer plate. When the connecting plate and the rotating shaft are installed by screw rotation, it is beneficial to make the transfer plate closer to the conveyor belt when it rotates to the top of the conveyor belt, further reducing the labor intensity required for goods movement and improving sorting efficiency.

[0026] (3) By setting the slider and the locking block at the bottom of the shaft seat and limiting the shape of the locking block, this utility model is conducive to improving the stability of the transfer plate displacement and rotation during cargo sorting, and ensuring the normal and stable operation of sorting operations.

[0027] (4) By limiting the angle between the transfer plate and the main plate, and by setting the transfer wheel on the transfer plate, this utility model can reduce the friction between the goods and the transfer plate during the transfer, thereby reducing the force required for the transfer of goods and improving sorting efficiency. By limiting the anti-slip strip on the main plate, it can prevent the goods from slipping and falling off when moving on the transfer plate, and ensure the normal operation of the sorting operation.

[0040] To address the limitations of existing technologies, this embodiment provides a technical solution. The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0041] Conventional goods transportation typically uses conveyor belts, but this requires multiple people to sort the goods on both sides of the conveyor belt and move them to a sorting shelf on one side. This utility model is mainly an improvement and optimization of the existing technology for goods transportation and sorting, which suffers from low sorting efficiency and damage to goods during the sorting process.

[0042] See attached document Figure 1 A smart logistics warehousing and sorting device includes: a frame 100 for mounting a conveyor belt 200 and providing support for its rotary conveying; the conveyor belt 200, with its two ends wound around pulleys for rotary motion, the pulleys being rotatably mounted on the frame 100, and the pulleys being driven to rotate by a transmission motor 300 mounted on the frame 100. It can be understood that the frame 100 has pulleys rotatably mounted at both ends, and the two ends of the conveyor belt 200 are wound and rotated around the pulleys on both sides, the pulleys being driven to rotate by the transmission motor 300 mounted on the frame 100, thereby driving the conveyor belt 200 to rotate. The height of the conveyor belt 200 is not lower than the height of the sides of the frame 100, and the upper surface of the conveyor belt 200 can be provided with anti-slip protrusions or other limiting structures to prevent lateral movement of goods; see appendix. Figure 3-5A sorting mechanism, mounted on a frame 100, is used to transfer goods on a conveyor belt 200. This sorting mechanism includes a slide rail 500, mounted on the frame 100 with its extension direction parallel to the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 200. Specifically, the slide rail 500 has a Z-shaped cross-section, with an included angle β at the bend of the Z-shape, where β = 90°. Two right-angled surfaces of the slide rail 500 are respectively attached to the horizontal and vertical surfaces of the frame 100. This means that the right-angled surface of the slide rail 500 is attached to the right-angled surface of the frame 100. Various attachment methods are available, including screw installation, adhesive bonding, or... The insertion method allows for a close fit; the shaft seat 600 is slidably mounted on the slide rail 500. Specifically, the bottom of the shaft seat 600 is provided with a slider 700 and a locking block 800. The locking block 800 is located at the bottom of the slider 700, and the slider 700 is slidably mounted with a groove provided on the slide rail 500. The locking block 800 is embedded in the groove and slidably mounted. It can be understood that, in order to improve the stability of the device, the size of the locking block 800 can be increased to increase the contact area between the locking block 800 and the groove of the slide rail 500, thereby improving the stability of the device operation. Preferably, the length of the locking block 800 is 3 to 5 times the length of the shaft seat 600. In addition, the locking block 800 is set in an inverted dovetail shape or an inverted T-shape. The figure shows an inverted T-shape. The groove on the slide rail 500 is set in a shape that slides with the locking block 800; see appendix. Figure 3 The transfer plate 110 is mounted on the bearing seat 600 and rotatably mounted relative to the bearing seat 600. Specifically, the transfer plate 110 includes a horizontally arranged main plate 1101 and a transfer plate 1102 forming a certain angle with the main plate 1101. The angle between the transfer plate 1102 and the main plate 1101 is α, preferably 15° (5° < α < 20°). The connection between the transfer plate 1102 and the main plate 1101 is made with a rounded corner. See Appendix Figure 5 The mainboard 1101 is provided with several anti-slip strips 1104. The extension direction of the anti-slip strips 1104 is tangential to the rotation direction of the transfer plate 110. The anti-slip strips 1104 can be made of shock-absorbing rubber or other materials. See appendix. Figure 4 A plurality of ferry wheels 1105 are provided on the ferry plate 1102. The ferry wheels 1105 are rotatably mounted on the ferry plate 1102 via a shaft, and the height of the ferry wheel 1105 protruding from the ferry plate 1102 is H, 5mm < H < 10mm, and H is preferably 6mm here. The rotation direction of the ferry wheel 1105 is tangent to the movement direction of the goods on the ferry plate 1102. The purpose of this arrangement is to reduce the friction of the goods when they move along the ferry plate 1102, thereby facilitating the rapid movement of the goods and improving sorting efficiency.

[0043] Although not shown in the attached diagram, it should be noted that a rotating shaft 900 is installed inside the bearing seat 600, and one end of the transfer plate 110 is connected to the rotating shaft 900 via a connecting plate 1103. The bearing seat 600 is provided with a clearance groove to allow the connecting plate 1103 to rotate without obstruction. Specifically, both ends of the rotating shaft 900 are fixedly installed relative to the bearing seat 600, and one end of the connecting plate 1103 is rotatably installed to the rotating shaft 900 via a thread. When the connecting plate 1103 rotates around the rotating shaft 900, the connecting plate 1103 rises and falls during the rotation process. Alternatively, the two ends of the rotating shaft 900 are fixedly installed relative to the shaft seat 600, and one end of the connecting plate 1103 is rotatably installed with the rotating shaft 900 through a bearing. When the connecting plate 1103 rotates around the rotating shaft 900, the connecting plate 1103 achieves horizontal rotation. When the connecting plate 1103 and the rotating shaft 900 are rotatably installed through a thread, the rotation of the threaded connection will be converted into up and down movement, which is beneficial to make the transfer plate 110 closer to the conveyor belt 200 when it rotates above the conveyor belt 200, further reducing the labor intensity required for goods movement and improving sorting efficiency.

[0044] When using the technical solution of this utility model for sorting operations, the goods move along the frame 100 via the conveyor belt 200. When it is necessary to sort and move the goods, the transfer plate 110 is rotated along the shaft seat 600 so that the transfer plate 110 is directly above the conveyor belt 200. The goods are pushed and moved upward along the guide plate 1102 onto the main plate 1101. Since the guide plate 1102 is equipped with guide wheels 1105, it is time-saving and labor-saving to push the goods. Then, the transfer plate 110 is rotated along the shaft seat 600 to the sorting mechanism to move the goods to the sorting mechanism and complete the sorting operation.

[0045] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.

[0046] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
