[0020] The application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments. It can be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the related utility model, and not to limit the utility model. In addition, it should be noted that only the parts related to the utility model are shown in the drawings for convenience of description.

[0021] It should be noted that the embodiments in the application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict. The application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0022] Referring to Figures 1 to 5 The utility model provides a kind of compatible special-shaped part ring-shaped cross-belt sorting equipment, including ring-shaped cross-belt sorting machine 1 and multi-station continuous upper packing table 2.

[0023] Ring-shaped cross-belt sorting machine 1 is prior art, and in the present embodiment, its improvement lies in sorting trolley, and the rest structure is not repeated here.

[0024] In the present embodiment, referring to Figure 3 ​The sorting trolley 11 of the circular cross-belt sorting machine 1 shown has baffles 111 erected on both the front and rear sides. The front and rear sides of the sorting trolley are based on the direction of travel of the sorting trolley (e.g., ...). Figure 1 The front and back of the hollow arrow line shown. Figure 3 The conveyor belt of the sorting cart shown is not displayed; please refer to [link / reference] for details on the conveyor belt of the sorting cart. Figure 4 As shown.

[0025] Continue reading Figure 4 As shown, the conveyor belt of the sorting trolley 11 is positioned between two baffles 111. The conveyor belt 12 of the sorting trolley 11 has at least two partitions 121. Each partition 121 is positioned along the thickness direction of the baffle 111, that is, along the width direction of the conveyor belt of the sorting trolley. The two baffles 111 and the two partitions 121 together form a receiving groove. Because the receiving groove is formed on the sorting trolley, irregularly shaped express items will not be thrown out of the sorting trolley due to the limiting effect of the receiving groove. The setting of the receiving groove can also increase the running speed of the sorting trolley of the annular cross-belt sorter.

[0026] The multi-station continuous packaging station 2 includes a multi-station conveyor belt 21, a weighing conveyor belt 22, a barcode scanning device 24, a packaging conveyor belt 23, and a phase-locked controller.

[0027] See Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the package conveyor belt 23 and the circular cross belt sorter 1 are set at a preset angle.

[0028] As a preferred implementation, the preset angle is 40° to 50°. In this embodiment, refer to... Figure 1 As shown, the preset angle is 45°.

[0029] The output end of the package conveyor belt 23 extends above the annular cross-belt sorter 1. (See also...) Figure 2 As shown, the output end of the package conveyor belt 23 extends above the receiving groove of the sorting trolley of the annular cross belt sorter 1.

[0030] In this embodiment, the multi-station conveyor belt 21, the weighing conveyor belt 22, and the package supply conveyor belt 23 are arranged collinearly, that is, they are arranged in a straight line. The weighing conveyor belt 22 is located between the output end of the multi-station conveyor belt 21 and the input end of the package supply conveyor belt 23.

[0031] The barcode scanner 24 is used to collect the waybill information of the express shipment. The barcode scanner 24 is mounted above the weighing conveyor belt 22.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment, the scanning device 24 is a barcode scanner. Specifically, the barcode scanner is mounted above the weighing conveyor belt 22 via a bracket.

[0033] In the embodiment, the support is a door-shaped support 241.

[0034] Referring to Figure 5 As shown in the figure, a plurality of positioning plates 211 are formed on the first belt of the multi-station conveying belt 21. The plurality of positioning plates 211 are equidistantly arranged along the length direction of the first belt. Each positioning plate is arranged along the width direction of the first belt.

[0035] Continuing to refer to Figure 5 As shown in the figure, two limiting plates 212 are arranged on the opposite sides of the first belt respectively. The two limiting plates 212 respectively extend to the output end of the bag feeding belt 23. The limiting plates are fixedly installed on the racks of the multi-station conveying belt 21, the weighing conveying belt 22 and the bag feeding belt 23.

[0036] The first sensor is installed on the multi-station conveying belt 21. The first sensor is used to sense the positioning plates on the first belt of the multi-station conveying belt.

[0037] The phase-locked controller is connected with the ring cross-belt sorting machine 1, the multi-station conveying belt 21, the weighing conveying belt 22 and the bag feeding belt 23, and the first sensor.

[0038] The phase-locked controller controls the phase of the multi-station conveying belt 21 to be consistent with the first running speed of the sorting trolley 11 of the ring cross-belt sorting machine and the second running speed of the positioning plates, and controls the multi-station conveying belt 21, the weighing conveying belt 22 and the bag feeding belt 23 to throw the express into a receiving groove in a linkage manner.

[0039] The first running speed is obtained from the signal of the ring cross-belt sorting machine. The second running speed of the positioning plates is obtained based on the signal collected by the first sensor and time calculation.

[0040] The two limiting plates, the first belt of the multi-station conveying belt 21, the second belt of the weighing conveying belt 22 and the third belt of the bag feeding belt 23 form a conveying groove. The conveying groove can convey regular express and also can convey irregular express, and can throw the irregular express into a receiving groove of a sorting trolley.

[0041] The ring cross-belt sorting equipment compatible with irregular parts of the utility model adopts the sorting trolley with a receiving groove and the multi-station continuous bag feeding table to replace the existing cross-belt trolley and automatic bag feeding table, so that the function of automatic bag feeding and compatibility with irregular parts sorting can be realized.

[0042] Specifically, the sorting trolley uses a conveying belt with a partition plate, and a baffle is arranged on the front and rear sides of the conveying belt respectively. A sensor for sensing the position of the partition plate on the conveying belt is arranged on the sorting trolley. When controlling the operation of the sorting trolley, the ring cross-belt sorting machine controller controls the partition plate to be located at the two ends of the upper surface of the sorting trolley when the conveying belt of the sorting trolley is stopped.

[0043] The multi-station continuous package supply table comprises a multi-station conveying belt, a weighing conveying belt, a package label or face sheet code scanning device, a package supply conveying belt, a controller and the like. A plurality of positioning plates are uniformly distributed on the first belt of the multi-station conveying belt. Limiting plates are further arranged on both sides of each conveying belt of the multi-station continuous package supply table. The code scanning device is installed above the weighing conveying belt (and can be moved forward to above the multi-station conveying belt close to the weighing conveying belt). The output end of the package supply conveying belt is arranged at the upper edge position of the sorting trolley of the ring cross-belt sorting machine, and the conveying direction of the multi-station continuous package supply table is at an angle of about 45 degrees with the running direction of the sorting trolley of the ring cross-belt sorting machine.

[0044] The working principle of the ring cross-belt sorting equipment compatible with special-shaped parts of the utility model is as follows:

[0045] After starting operation, the packages (or express items, including special-shaped packages or regular-shaped packages) can be continuously placed on the multi-station conveying belt by multiple persons (or related devices). Under the limitation of the positioning plates on the multi-station conveying belt and the limiting plates on both sides, various packages are stably conveyed forward.

[0046] When the package passes through the weighing conveying belt (belt type electronic scale), the code scanner located above (or front side) of the weighing belt reads the package label information, and the electronic scale data is transmitted to the controller. The controller controls the running speed of each conveying belt, and makes the packages be continuously thrown one by one to the receiving groove of the sorting trolley of the ring cross-belt sorting machine.

[0047] The package reaching the sorting trolley of the ring cross-belt sorting machine is in a stable state due to the limitation of the receiving groove.

[0048] In order to automatically supply the packages to the sorting trolley, the output end of the package supply conveying belt responsible for the interface with the sorting trolley is slightly higher than the baffle and the partition plate of the sorting trolley. This is different from the horizontal flat interface mode of the existing art upper package table of the ring cross-belt sorting machine. Although the package will roll when falling from the package supply conveying belt of the automatic upper package table to the surface of the sorting trolley, which will affect the position of the package face sheet, since the package information has been obtained in advance by the controller, the subsequent sorting will not be affected. According to the package dropping instruction, the controller controls the package dropping action at the specified compartment position, the package is conveyed into the frame of the specified compartment along with the movement of the conveying belt of the sorting trolley and the partition plate on the conveying belt, and the sorting is completed.

[0049] The annular cross-belt sorting equipment compatible with special-shaped parts has the advantages that, compared with the prior art annular cross-belt sorting machine,

[0050] The annular cross-belt sorting equipment compatible with special-shaped parts can simultaneously sort irregular (special-shaped) packages and normal packages, so that regular packages and special-shaped packages can be compatible sorted.

[0051] The sorting capacity of the annular cross-belt sorting equipment compatible with special-shaped parts can be further increased. When the linear speed of the annular cross-belt sorting machine of the prior art is increased to more than 2.5M / S, at the four corners of the annular cross-belt sorting machine, even normal packages will be thrown out of the trolley, and the sorting trolley of the annular cross-belt sorting machine of the annular cross-belt sorting equipment compatible with special-shaped parts is formed with a receiving groove, so the running speed of the sorting trolley of the annular cross-belt sorting machine can be further improved.

[0052] The one multi-station wrapping table of the annular cross-belt sorting equipment compatible with special-shaped parts can replace multiple wrapping tables (more than five) of the prior art, not only solving the problem of automatically supplying the package to the baffle trolley, but also saving cost and space, so that the positions of multiple package receiving slots can be increased, and the sorting capacity of the equipment can be increased.

[0053] The annular cross-belt sorting equipment compatible with special-shaped parts has the characteristics of high efficiency and good benefits, is an upgraded product of the existing cross-belt sorting device, and has a broad application prospect.

[0054] The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the application and the explanation of the applied technical principles. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model range involved in the application is not limited to the technical solutions formed by the specific combination of the above technical features, and also covers other technical solutions formed by the above technical features or equivalent features in any combination without departing from the utility model concept. For example, the above features are replaced with the technical features disclosed in the application (but not limited to) having similar functions to form technical solutions.
