[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0021] Please see Figures 1-3 The present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0022] A cargo sorting device includes a vertical conveyor belt 1, sorting lanes 2, and a central swing wheel sorter 16. Multiple sorting lanes 2 are installed on the side of the vertical conveyor belt 1, and a central swing wheel sorter 16 is arranged between two adjacent vertical conveyor belts 1. A detection and display unit 6 is installed on the sorting lane 2.
[0023] The goods are placed on the vertical conveyor belt 1, and the express delivery slips attached to the goods face the detection and display unit 6. The detection and display unit 6 can move the goods to different positions according to the delivery address on the express delivery slip. The goods are then moved to the corresponding sorting lane 2 by the operation of the central swing wheel sorting machine 16, thus realizing the sorting of the goods.
[0024] The end of the sorting channel 2 is provided with a support plate 4, on which a weight sorting component is installed to further sort the initially sorted goods according to weight. The weight sorting component includes an insulating ring 15, which is installed at the bottom of a turntable 5. The turntable 5 is fixedly connected to the output end of a motor 10 through a sleeve. An mounting plate 9 is installed on the outside of the motor 10. A support spring 11 is installed at the bottom of the turntable 5. The other end of the support spring 11 contacts the top of the mounting plate 9. A wire 8 is installed on the top of the mounting plate 9. An upper contact 12 and a lower contact 13 are installed on the top of the wire 8. The upper contact 12 is located above the lower contact 13. The bottom of the wire 8 is electrically connected to the motor 10. The distance between the upper contact 12 and the lower contact 13 is greater than the width of the contact ring 14. The distance between the upper contact 12 and the lower contact 13 is the same as the outer diameter of the contact ring 14.
[0025] Goods slide onto the turntable 5 via the sorting lane 2. The weight of the goods causes the turntable 5 to move downwards. This downward movement of the turntable 5 drives the touch ring 14 and the insulating ring 15 to move synchronously. When the goods are light, the touch ring 14 contacts the upper contact point 12, and the motor 10 rotates 90 degrees in the forward direction. The forward rotation of the motor 10 causes the turntable 5 to rotate in the forward direction through the sleeve. The forward rotation of the turntable 5 causes the middle pendulum sorter 16 to rotate 90 degrees, moving the goods onto the transverse conveyor belt 3. The motor 10 achieves 90-degree forward and reverse rotation in a single movement, and the middle pendulum sorter 16 returns to its initial state. When the goods are heavy, the touch ring 14 contacts the lower contact point 13, and the motor 10 rotates in the reverse direction. The middle pendulum sorter 16 rotates in the reverse direction, moving the goods onto another transverse conveyor belt 3. This allows for sorting based on the weight of the goods, avoiding the need for workers to place them according to weight later, and making the placement of goods more stable.
[0026] The support plate 4 has a turntable 5 running through it. A side-swing wheel sorting machine 7 is installed on the turntable 5. The motor 10 moves in both forward and reverse directions. A single movement of the motor 10 is 90 degrees forward and reverse back and forth.
[0027] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
