Figure 6 , Figure 6The side view in the process of setting the sowing wall outside the sorting trolley. After receiving the signal, the sorting trolley 2 moves to the sowing wall 5 corresponding to the category along the top annular track 121 and the bottom annular track 122, and automatically transports the to-be-sorted articles on the sorting tray 22 into the discharging tray 51 through the inclined discharging plate 52 on the sowing wall 5, so as to complete the sorting of the goods.
[0089] In some embodiments of the utility model, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the bottom view of the sorting trolley is as shown in Figure 7 , Figure 2 , the exploded view of the sorting trolley is as shown in Figure 8 , Figure 2 . The top annular track 121 or the bottom annular track 122 is provided with a toothed belt 123; the top end or the bottom end of the trolley frame body 21 is provided with a walking mounting seat 2111; the walking assembly 211 comprises a walking motor 2112 and a walking gear 2113; the walking gear 2113 is arranged outside the trolley frame body 21 to engage with the toothed belt 123, so as to drive the sorting trolley 2 to move along the top annular track 121 or the bottom annular track 122; the walking motor 2112 is installed on the walking mounting seat 2111, and the motor shaft of the walking motor 2112 is connected with the walking gear 2113, so as to drive the walking gear 2113 to rotate under the control of a walking controller.
[0090] In the embodiment, the walking motor 2112 in the walking assembly 211 is fixedly installed on the top end or the bottom end of the trolley frame body 21 through the walking mounting seat 2111, and the motor shaft of the walking motor 2112 is connected with the walking gear 2113; under the control of a walking controller (not shown in the figure), the walking motor 2112 drives the walking gear 2113 to rotate. Since the walking gear 2113 engages with the toothed belt 123, when the walking gear 2113 rotates, the walking assembly 211 can move along the top annular track 121 or the bottom annular track 122, so as to drive the sorting trolley 2 to move along the top annular track 121 and the bottom annular track 122, and further realize the self-driven operation of the sorting trolley 2.
