Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of logistics sorting equipment technology, specifically a logistics sorting device. Background Technology
[0002] Logistics, an indispensable part of modern business operations, encompasses the entire process from raw material procurement to product distribution. Its efficiency and accuracy are crucial for the stability of a company's supply chain. In the logistics and warehousing stage, facing a wide variety of goods, we employ various packaging methods to ensure the safety and integrity of goods during transportation. Among these, cardboard boxes of different sizes play a vital role. They are carefully selected based on the volume, weight, and shape of the goods, tightly wrapping them up.
[0003] When these cartons loaded with goods arrive at the warehousing center, a methodical sorting process quietly begins. First, staff roughly categorize the goods based on their final destination, grouping cartons destined for the same region together – a process akin to planning a general route for the goods' journey. However, simply sorting by destination is far from sufficient. To further optimize transportation efficiency, we need to further refine the classification based on the size of the cartons. This is because cartons of different sizes differ significantly in space occupation and loading methods. Only by precisely matching the appropriate vehicle size can we maximize the space utilization of the transport vehicles, reduce transportation costs, and ensure the stability and safety of the goods during transit.
[0004] In this process, the use of advanced technologies is particularly crucial. Today, RFID tags, barcodes, and visual recognition technologies have become powerful tools for automatically identifying the destination of packaging cartons in the logistics and warehousing field. They can quickly and accurately read relevant information on the cartons, eliminating the need for manual verification and greatly improving work efficiency. After these technologies complete the identification and initial classification of the cartons' destinations, the next task is to precisely sort the packaging cartons of different sizes. This is where sorting devices come in.
[0005] To address the aforementioned issues, there is an urgent need for innovative designs based on existing sorting devices. Utility Model Content
[0006] This utility model addresses the problem that existing technical solutions are too simplistic by providing a logistics sorting device that is significantly different from existing technologies, thus solving the problems mentioned in the background.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a logistics sorting device, including a main conveyor frame, a number of guide blocks are evenly spaced above the conveyor belt of the main conveyor frame, and a number of gantry frames are installed above the main conveyor frame corresponding to the guide blocks, and a sorting structure is connected inside each gantry frame. A support frame is provided on one side of the main conveyor frame, and a number of robotic arms are installed on the support frame corresponding to the gantry frames. A number of diversion conveyor frames and collection boxes are provided on the side of the support frame away from the main conveyor frame corresponding to the robotic arms.
[0008] Preferably, the guide blocks are symmetrically distributed about both sides of the main conveyor frame, and the side of the guide block away from the gantry frame is set as an inclined surface, and the spacing between each group of guide blocks corresponds to the classification structure.
[0009] Preferably, the classification structure includes an open plate, a groove, a trigger switch, a bonding plate, a slide rod, a fixed cylinder, a pressure spring, a movable plate, and an adjusting rod. Each gantry frame is connected to an open plate, and each open plate has grooves on both sides of the opening on its end face near the guide block. A trigger switch is installed in each groove and is electrically connected to a PLC control board. Each groove has a corresponding bonding plate, and each bonding plate is connected to a slide rod. The end of each slide rod passes through the end face of the corresponding open plate and is located inside the fixed cylinder. Each fixed cylinder is connected to the end face of the open plate. Each fixed cylinder has a pressure spring, one end of which is connected to the slide rod, and the other end of which is connected to a movable plate. The movable plate is located inside the fixed cylinder, and each movable plate has an adjusting rod, the end of which passes through the end of the fixed cylinder.
[0010] Preferably, the opening plate is configured as an inverted "concave" structure, and the opening size of each opening plate decreases sequentially, and the opening size of the opening plate is the same as the spacing between the guide block corresponding to the gantry.
[0011] Preferably, the adjusting rod is configured as a "T" shaped structure, and the adjusting rod and the fixed cylinder are connected by threads.
[0012] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This logistics sorting device, through the arrangement of guide blocks, gantry frames, and sorting structures, enables detailed sorting of packaging cartons according to their size during the stable transport of the main conveyor. This sorting process considers not only the external dimensions of the cartons but also the weight differences between cartons of different sizes, achieving sorting through the coordinated operation of robotic arms. Cartons of the same size and weight are placed on the diversion conveyor belt for transfer, while cartons of the same size but different weights are placed in the collection bin, facilitating subsequent inspection work.
[0013] Staff inspect the cardboard boxes inside the collection bins, carefully checking for any leaks caused by damaged packaging, resulting in weight loss; or whether improper box size selection not only affects the rational allocation of space during loading but also increases unnecessary costs. Furthermore, they investigate other potential factors that could cause a mismatch between the packaged cardboard box weight and the expected weight, such as inadequate packing during the packaging process or inherent weight errors in the goods themselves. This ensures that each cardboard box accurately fulfills its transportation mission, safeguarding the efficient and precise operation of the logistics and warehousing process, thus playing a crucial role in the entire logistics supply chain and improving the overall operational efficiency and economic benefits of the logistics system.

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.
[0020] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides a technical solution: a logistics sorting device, including a main conveyor frame 1, guide blocks 2, gantry frames 3, sorting structures 4, opening plates 401, grooves 402, trigger switches 403, bonding plates 404, sliding rods 405, fixed cylinders 406, pressure springs 407, movable plates 408, adjusting rods 409, a support frame 5, robotic arms 6, diversion conveyor frames 7, and collection boxes 8. Several sets of guide blocks 2 are evenly spaced above the conveyor belt of the main conveyor frame 1, and several sets of gantry frames 3 are installed above the main conveyor frame 1 corresponding to the guide blocks 2. Each gantry frame 3 is connected to a sorting structure 4. A support frame 5 is provided on one side of the main conveyor frame 1, and several robotic arms 6 are installed on the support frame 5 corresponding to the gantry frames 3. Several diversion conveyor frames 7 and collection boxes 8 are provided on the side of the support frame 5 away from the main conveyor frame 1 corresponding to the robotic arms 6.
[0021] The guide blocks 2 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the main conveyor frame 1, and the side of the guide blocks 2 away from the gantry frame 3 is set as an inclined surface, and the spacing between each group of guide blocks 2 corresponds to the classification structure 4.
[0022] The classification structure 4 includes an opening plate 401, a groove 402, a trigger switch 403, a bonding plate 404, a slide rod 405, a fixed cylinder 406, a pressure spring 407, a movable plate 408, and an adjusting rod 409. Each gantry 3 is connected to an opening plate 401, and each opening plate 401 has a groove 402 on both sides of its end face near the guide block 2. A trigger switch 403 is installed in each groove 402 and is electrically connected to a PLC control board. Each groove 402 has a corresponding bonding plate 404, and each bonding plate 404 has... A sliding rod 405 is connected, and the end of each sliding rod 405 passes through the end face of the corresponding opening plate 401 and is located inside the fixed cylinder 406. Each fixed cylinder 406 is connected to the end face of the opening plate 401. Each fixed cylinder 406 is provided with a pressure spring 407, and one end of each pressure spring 407 is connected to the sliding rod 405. The other end of each pressure spring 407 is connected to a movable plate 408. The movable plate 408 is located inside the fixed cylinder 406, and each movable plate 408 is provided with an adjusting rod 409. The end of each adjusting rod 409 passes through the end of the fixed cylinder 406.
[0023] The opening plate 401 is set as an inverted "concave" structure, and the opening size on each opening plate 401 decreases sequentially. The opening size on the opening plate 401 is the same as the spacing between the guide block 2 corresponding to the gantry 3.
[0024] The adjusting rod 409 is configured with a "T" shaped structure, and the adjusting rod 409 and the fixed cylinder 406 are connected by threads.
[0025] Working principle: According to Figure 1As shown, the packaging carton is first placed on the main conveyor frame 1 for transmission. The packaging carton is guided by the guide block 2 to ensure that it is in the middle position of the main conveyor frame 1, which facilitates the subsequent screening by the classification structure 4 on the gantry frame 3.
[0026] By using several gantry frames 3 with progressively smaller openings on the opening plates 401, cartons of different sizes can be blocked and sorted. Then, cartons of the same size are sorted by weight and transported by the main conveyor frame 1. When the contents of a carton meet the weight requirement, the weight causes the sides of the carton to contact the opening plates 401. This gravity, combined with the transmission force of the main conveyor frame 1, exceeds the force of the pressure spring 407, squeezing the bonding plate 404 into the groove 402. This presses the trigger switch 403, which transmits a signal to the PLC control board. The PLC control board then issues a command to the corresponding robotic arm 6. The packaging carton is picked up and placed on the diversion conveyor 7 for transport. Conversely, when the weight of the contents of the packaging carton is insufficient, when it comes into contact with the bonding plate 404, the force of gravity combined with the transmission of the main conveyor 1 is less than that of the pressure spring 407, so it cannot push the bonding plate 404 into the groove 402 to press the trigger switch 403. At this time, the vision recognition device equipped on the robotic arm 6 recognizes that there is a packaging carton near the gantry 3 and transmits a signal to the PLC control board. The PLC control board sends an instruction to the corresponding robotic arm 6 to pick up the packaging carton and place it into the collection box 8. This is the working principle of the logistics sorting device.
[0027] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
