Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of logistics feeding equipment, and specifically relates to a horizontal conveying equipment for stacked flat logistics pieces. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the field of logistics sorting, stacked flat logistics pieces refer to an article form with a certain area but relatively small thickness, and multiple such articles can be stacked and placed. In three-dimensional space, the thickness (or height) of the flat logistics piece is much smaller than the length and width, and usually presents a flat form. The thickness of such articles may be between a few millimeters and a few centimeters, while the length and width are several tens of centimeters.

[0003] At present, in the process of feeding stacked flat logistics pieces, the existing technology usually uses a horizontal conveying belt to convey them. For example, the stacked flat logistics pieces are placed smoothly at the starting end of the horizontal conveying belt, the conveying belt is started slowly, and the initial speed is set appropriately to drive the stacked flat logistics pieces to move to the feeding station.

[0004] However, during the conveying of the horizontal conveying belt for the stacked flat logistics pieces, due to factors such as changes in conveying speed, unevenness of the conveying surface, or vibrations, the upper logistics pieces may slip. For example, the inertial force generated when the conveying equipment starts or stops can cause the friction between the logistics pieces to be insufficient to maintain the stacked state.

[0005] In addition, in subsequent processes that require precise sorting of stacked logistics pieces, it is difficult to ensure that the logistics pieces always maintain neat and stacked arrangement due to the slight displacement and shaking of the logistics pieces during horizontal conveying, which brings difficulties to subsequent sorting operations. In addition, due to the fear of sliding, damage, etc. of the stacked flat logistics pieces, the conveying speed of the horizontal conveying belt is often reduced, thereby affecting the overall conveying efficiency of the equipment and reducing the feeding and sorting efficiency.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The specific embodiments of the utility model are described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0026] AsFigures 1-4 The utility model discloses a horizontal conveying equipment for stacked flat logistics piece provides in the embodiment of the utility model, aims at the process of conveying stacking flat logistics piece, improves the stability of conveying stacked flat logistics piece, improves the loading efficiency.

[0027] The horizontal conveying equipment for stacked flat logistics piece provided in the embodiment of the utility model sets up the strip-shaped channel along the pushing direction of the feeding mechanism on the bearing table, which is adapted to the characteristics of the stacked flat logistics piece, can better position and convey the flat logistics piece, and under the pushing of the feeding mechanism, the telescopic assembly is driven to move along the extension direction of the strip-shaped channel by the power component, the fork can be driven into the strip-shaped channel to contact the side wall of the logistics piece and push the logistics piece, the contact and pushing action of the fork and the logistics piece can be flexibly controlled, the conveying stability of the flat logistics piece is improved, the shaking, deviation or even falling of the stacked logistics piece in the conveying process is reduced, the accuracy and reliability of conveying are improved, and the loading efficiency is improved. Meanwhile, compared with some direct pushing mode of the flat logistics piece by the conveying belt, the pushing mode of the fork has a relatively small contact area with the logistics piece and a lower possibility of damaging the surface of the logistics piece.

[0028] As Figure 1 Combined Figure 2 As shown in a horizontal conveying equipment for stacked flat logistics piece includes frame 1, the bearing table 2 for single column placement stacked flat logistics piece, and the feeding mechanism 3 for pushing stacked flat logistics piece to move. The bearing table 2 is installed on the frame 1, and the strip-shaped channel 4 is arranged on the bearing table 2, and the strip-shaped channel 4 is arranged along the pushing direction of the feeding mechanism 3.

[0029] As Figure 1 As shown in the feeding mechanism 3 includes fork 31, telescopic assembly 32 and power component 33. The fork 31 is installed on the telescopic end of the power component 33 through the telescopic assembly 32. The power component 33 is configured to drive the telescopic assembly 32 to move along the extension direction of the strip-shaped channel 4. The telescopic assembly 32 is configured to drive the fork 31 to contact the side wall of the stacked flat logistics piece in the strip-shaped channel 4, and the fork 31 is driven along the strip-shaped channel 4 to push the stacked flat logistics piece under the driving of the power component 33.

[0030] The power component 33 can be selected according to the actual use scene requirements, considering the conveying force, speed, accuracy, stability and other factors, such as a pneumatic cylinder or a motor. For example, for the conveying of heavy flat logistics, such as large-sized hardboard and plastic board, a double-acting pneumatic cylinder can provide sufficient thrust to ensure the stable movement of the logistics during conveying. It can also play a good role in some occasions where high conveying efficiency is required and quick pushing and returning is needed.

[0031] As shown in Figure 1 , the power component 33 is installed on the rack 1 and located below the carrying table 2. The plurality of telescopic assemblies 32 are connected to the telescopic end of the power component 33 through the mounting plate 5. The telescopic assembly 32 is configured to drive the fork 31 into the strip-shaped channel 4 from below the carrying table 2. In this way, the telescopic assembly 32 drives the fork 31 into the strip-shaped channel 4 from below the carrying table 2, so that the fork 31 is below the carrying table 2 when not working, reducing the risk of collision and damage to the fork 31 in the non-working state. At the same time, during the conveying process, this way can make the fork 31 contact the logistics smoothly, avoid the impact on the logistics caused by the sudden falling of the fork 31 from above, and better protect the integrity of the logistics.

[0032] At the same time, the power component 33 is installed on the rack 1 below the carrying table 2, fully utilizing the three-dimensional space of the equipment, avoiding the power component 33 occupying the upper space, making the space of the whole conveying equipment in the height direction effectively utilized, and making the overall structure of the equipment more compact. It is especially suitable for logistics places or production workshops with limited space, and can complete the conveying work of logistics in limited space.

[0033] The number of telescopic assemblies 32 can be selected according to the size of the flat logistics and the size of the carrying table 2. As shown in Figure 1 , three telescopic assemblies 32 are connected to the telescopic end of the power component 33 through the mounting plate 5, which can make the power of the power component 33 more evenly transmitted to each telescopic assembly 32, ensuring the consistency and synchronization of the action of each fork 31, thereby more accurately controlling the position and force of the fork 31 pushing the logistics, and improving the conveying accuracy and efficiency.

[0034] According to some preferred embodiments of the present application, the plurality of telescopic assemblies 32 are arranged in a linear array along the pushing direction of the power component 33. In this way, the power output by the power component 33 can be evenly distributed to each telescopic assembly 32. In this way, when pushing the stacked flat logistics, the pushing force received by the logistics is more balanced, avoiding the situation of local uneven force leading to skew, jamming or even damage, and ensuring the smooth conveying of the logistics.

[0035] In addition, the linear array arrangement allows each telescopic assembly 32 to cooperate with each other when pushing the logistics piece, forming a stable pushing system. When a temporary power fluctuation or failure occurs in one of the telescopic assemblies 32, the other assemblies can still provide stable pushing force, ensuring that the logistics piece is not greatly affected during transportation, improving the stability and reliability of the entire transportation process. At the same time, since each telescopic assembly 32 is arranged in order along the pushing direction, they can act in turn according to a certain rhythm, realizing continuous pushing of the logistics piece, which can improve the transportation speed of the logistics piece, shorten the transportation time of a single logistics piece, thereby improving the working efficiency of the entire horizontal conveying device and meeting the needs of large-scale logistics transportation.

[0036] As shown in Figure 2 , the telescopic assembly 32 includes a telescopic cylinder 321 and a fixed plate 322. The piston rod of the telescopic cylinder 321 is perpendicular to the carrying table 2. The cylinder body of the telescopic cylinder 321 is installed on the mounting plate 5. The yoke 31 is installed on the end of the piston rod of the telescopic cylinder 321 through the fixed plate 322.

[0037] Among them, the telescopic cylinder 321 can conveniently adjust the height of the yoke 31. When facing stacked flat logistics pieces of different thicknesses, the height of the yoke 31 can be quickly adjusted by controlling the extension length of the piston rod of the telescopic cylinder 321, so that it can accurately contact the side wall of the logistics piece and provide appropriate pushing force, so that the device can adapt to logistics piece transportation of various specifications, greatly enhancing the versatility and applicability of the device.

[0038] As shown in Figure 3 , one side of the carrying table 2 is provided with a distribution platform 9. The distribution platform 9 is configured to receive the stacked flat logistics pieces pushed out of the carrying table 2 by the feeding mechanism 3. The arrangement of the distribution platform 9 provides a special receiving area for the logistics pieces after they leave the carrying table 2, which provides convenience for subsequent classification, sorting, temporary storage and other operations. It effectively connects the horizontal conveying process with other logistics links, avoids the accumulation and confusion of logistics pieces at the conveying terminal, makes the entire logistics process more orderly and smooth, and improves the overall operation efficiency of the logistics system.

[0039] As shown in Figure 3 , in combination with Figure 4As shown, the bottom of the distribution platform 9 is provided with a lifting device 10, which is configured to be driven by the stacked flat logistics pieces layer by layer to drive the distribution platform 9 to rise layer by layer. When the stacked flat logistics pieces are grabbed layer by layer, the lifting device 10 drives the distribution platform 9 to rise layer by layer, always keeping the logistics pieces at a height convenient for grabbing. This greatly reduces the distance and time of the up-and-down movement of the grabbing equipment (such as a mechanical arm, manual work), makes the grabbing operation more smooth and efficient, thereby speeding up the entire logistics processing flow and improving the logistics processing amount per unit of time. For example, the lifting device 10 is selected as an electric screw lift.

[0040] As shown in the figure, Figure 1 The side of the bearing table 2 is provided with a baffle 6. The baffle 6 can limit the logistics pieces during transportation. When the feeding mechanism 3 pushes the stacked flat logistics pieces to move on the bearing table 2, the baffle 6 can prevent the logistics pieces from deviating from the predetermined transportation track due to uneven pushing force, inertia and other factors, and ensure that the logistics pieces always move stably along the strip-shaped channel 4, thereby improving the accuracy and consistency of transportation, and facilitating subsequent distribution, sorting and other operations.

[0041] As shown in the figure, Figure 3 The upper side of the bearing table 2 is provided with a blocking mechanism 7. The blocking mechanism 7 is installed at the outlet of the strip-shaped channel 4 through the rack 1. The blocking mechanism 7 is arranged at the outlet of the strip-shaped channel 4, which can effectively control the output rhythm of the stacked flat logistics pieces. When the subsequent distribution, sorting and other links cannot temporarily receive new logistics pieces, the blocking mechanism 7 can block the logistics pieces on the bearing table 2, avoid the accumulation and confusion of the logistics pieces, and ensure that the logistics pieces enter the next link in the established order, thereby maintaining the orderly operation of the entire logistics system. The blocking mechanism 7 can be selected to have a structure similar to the telescopic assembly 32.

[0042] The horizontal conveying equipment for the stacked flat logistics pieces in the embodiment of the utility model for use, as shown in the figure, Figure 3 The stacked envelope mail 8 is placed on the bearing table 2 in a single column, so that it is located in the strip-shaped channel 4. At this time, the logistics pieces are limited by the baffle 6 on the side of the bearing table 2, which ensures that they are in the correct transportation position and avoids deviation in the subsequent transportation process.

[0043] Start the power component 33, and the power component 33 drives the telescopic assembly 32 to move along the extension direction of the strip-shaped channel 4. The telescopic cylinder 321 in the telescopic assembly 32 drives the fork 31 to enter the strip-shaped channel 4 and contact the side wall of the stacked flat logistics pieces. Under the continuous driving of the power component 33, the fork 31 pushes the logistics pieces to move forward along the strip-shaped channel 4. The plurality of linearly arrayed telescopic assemblies 32 work cooperatively to ensure that the logistics pieces receive uniform pushing force and stably move forward on the bearing table 2.

[0044] When the logistics piece reaches the exit of the strip-shaped channel 4 with the pushing of the fork 31, the blocking mechanism 7 starts to work. If the downstream distribution link or other equipment is not ready to receive the logistics piece, the blocking mechanism 7 blocks the logistics piece on the carrying table 2, preventing it from continuing to move forward, ensuring the orderly delivery of the logistics piece, and avoiding causing logistics congestion or confusion.

[0045] When the downstream link is ready, the blocking mechanism 7 releases, and the logistics piece is pushed out of the carrying table 2 and into the distribution platform 9. The lifting device 10 at the bottom of the distribution platform 9 is initially in a lower state to receive the logistics piece. As the stacked flat logistics piece is grabbed layer by layer, the lifting device 10 drives the distribution platform 9 to rise layer by layer, always keeping the logistics piece at a suitable height for easy grabbing, improving logistics operation efficiency and reducing labor intensity.

[0046] The utility model is not limited to the specific technical solutions described in the above embodiments, and in addition to the above embodiments, the utility model can also have other implementation manners. For those skilled in the art, any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. formed within the spirit and principles of the utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
