Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of material sorting technology, and in particular to a material sorting table. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of my country's economy, the logistics industry has become increasingly important in the national economy. Material sorting, as a crucial step in the logistics process, directly impacts the operational efficiency of the entire logistics system. Traditional material sorting methods rely primarily on manual operation, which suffers from high labor intensity, low efficiency, and low accuracy. Therefore, it is necessary to design a material sorting station.

[0003] To address this, patent CN212370601U discloses a sorting device for logistics, including a workbench forming the overall structure of the device, a conveying mechanism mounted on the workbench for scanning and conveying goods to be sorted, and a diversion mechanism mounted on one side of the workbench for separating and collecting goods to be sorted. The unloading section of the conveying mechanism is connected to the loading section of the diversion mechanism, and the two work together to complete the sorting operation. This invention can automatically scan and sort goods to be sorted, which not only shortens the sorting time to the maximum extent and improves the overall operational efficiency of logistics companies, but also avoids excessive reliance on human resources in the operation process and reduces the labor input costs of logistics companies.

[0004] Although the sorting device for logistics mentioned above shortens the sorting time of goods during use, there is friction between the sorting chute and the goods when sorting them, which affects the efficiency of sorting. Therefore, it is necessary to design a material sorting table. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a material sorting table to solve the problem that existing material sorting tables have friction between the sorting slide and the goods when sorting goods, which affects the efficiency of sorting goods.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a material sorting table, including a conveyor;

[0007] A scanning component is fixed on one side above the conveyor, and a pushing structure is provided on one side of the scanning component;

[0008] A guide structure is provided on the inner wall of the conveyor on the side of the pusher structure near the scanning component;

[0009] A diversion structure is fixed on the side of the conveyor away from the pushing structure. The diversion structure includes a diversion plate, a rotating roller, and a connecting shaft. The diversion plates are uniformly fixed on the outer wall of the conveyor on the side away from the pushing structure. Rotating rollers are uniformly arranged between adjacent diversion plates. Both ends of the rotating rollers are fixed with connecting shafts.

[0010] Furthermore, the scanning assembly includes a bracket, an electric telescopic rod, and a scanner. The bracket is fixed to one side above the conveyor, the electric telescopic rod is fixed to the lower end of the bracket, and the scanner is fixed to the lower end of the electric telescopic rod.

[0011] Furthermore, the pushing structure includes an electric push rod, a guide rod, a push plate, and an infrared emitter. The electric push rod is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the conveyor. Guide rods are provided on both sides of the electric push rod. One end of the electric push rod extends to the inner side of the conveyor and is fixedly attached to the push plate. An infrared emitter is fixedly installed on the side of the push plate away from the support.

[0012] Furthermore, one end of each guide rod extends to the inside of the conveyor and is fixedly connected to one side of the push plate, while the guide rod is slidably connected to the conveyor. The guide rod can improve the stability of the electric push rod during extension and retraction.

[0013] Furthermore, the input terminal of the infrared emitter and the output terminal of the scanner are electrically connected. After scanning the material, the scanner transmits the information to the infrared emitter.

[0014] Furthermore, the infrared transmitter contains an infrared receiver and a microcontroller. The output of the infrared receiver and the input of the electric push rod are electrically connected via the microcontroller. The infrared transmitter facilitates the determination of the material's position, making it easier to push the material to the distribution structure.

[0015] Furthermore, the guiding structure includes a guide plate, a reserved groove, rollers, and a return spring. The guide plate is disposed on one side above the conveyor. A reserved groove is provided inside the guide plate on the side near the support. Rollers are evenly arranged inside the reserved groove. Return springs are evenly fixed on the outer wall of the guide plate on the side away from the rollers.

[0016] Furthermore, one side of the guide plate is hinged to the inner wall of the conveyor, and both ends of the roller are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the guide plate. This rotatable connection between the roller and the guide plate reduces friction when the material contacts the guide plate.

[0017] Furthermore, the ends of the return springs furthest from the guide plate are fixedly connected to one side of the conveyor, and the return springs are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the guide plate. The return springs facilitate the repositioning of the guide plate.

[0018] Furthermore, the end of the connecting shaft furthest from the rotating roller extends into the interior of the diverting plate and is rotatably connected to it. The rotating rollers are evenly distributed on one side of the diverting plate. The rotatable connection between the rotating rollers and the diverting plate via the connecting shaft reduces the friction between the diverted material and the chute.

[0019] The material sorting table provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0020] By incorporating a diversion structure, the friction between the material and the rotating roller is transformed into rolling friction through the rotatable connection between the rotating roller and the diversion plate. This reduces the friction experienced by the material during diversion, increases the diversion speed, and prevents the material from stagnating due to excessive friction during diversion. As a result, the device is designed to facilitate rapid material diversion and improves the working efficiency of the material sorting station during use.

[0021] With the pusher structure, the material to be diverted can be pushed to the top of the rotating roller by the pusher of the electric pusher. Under the guidance of the guide rod, the electric pusher has high stability when it extends and retracts, ensuring that the pusher plate remains stable when pushing the material. With the help of the infrared emitter, the position of the material can be easily determined. This device has the function of easy pusher diversion and improves the convenience of the material sorting table when in use.

[0022] With the guide structure, the material is guided away from the push plate when it hits the guide plate, thus avoiding collisions during transportation. The elasticity of the infrared emitter helps the guide plate reset, and the rotational connection between the roller and the guide plate reduces the friction between the material and the guide plate. This device enables it to guide material transport and improves the convenience of using the material sorting station. Attached Figure Description

[0029] 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.

[0030] Please see Figures 1-5 The present invention provides a material sorting platform, including a conveyor 1.

[0031] Reference Figures 1-4 A scanning assembly 2 is fixed on one side above the conveyor 1. The scanning assembly 2 includes a bracket 21, an electric telescopic rod 22, and a scanner 23. The bracket 21 is fixed on one side above the conveyor 1. The electric telescopic rod 22 is fixed to the lower end of the bracket 21, and the scanner 23 is fixed to the lower end of the electric telescopic rod 22. A pushing structure 3 is provided on one side of the scanning assembly 2. The pushing structure 3 includes an electric push rod 31, a guide rod 32, a push plate 33, and an infrared emitter 34. The electric push rod 31 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the conveyor 1. Guide rods 32 are provided on both sides of the electric push rod 31. One end of the push rod 31 extends to the inside of the conveyor 1 and is fixed with a push plate 33. An infrared emitter 34 is fixedly installed on the side of the push plate 33 away from the bracket 21. One end of each guide rod 32 extends to the inside of the conveyor 1 and is fixedly connected to one side of the push plate 33. The guide rod 32 and the conveyor 1 are slidably connected. The input end of the infrared emitter 34 is electrically connected to the output end of the scanner 23. An infrared receiver and a microcontroller are fixed inside the infrared emitter 34. The output end of the infrared receiver inside the infrared emitter 34 and the input end of the electric push rod 31 are electrically connected through the microcontroller.

[0032] With an external power supply, scanner 23 scans the material being conveyed. When the scanned material does not meet the conditions for continued conveying, scanner 23 transmits a signal to infrared transmitter 34. Infrared transmitter 34 emits infrared rays. When the material reaches one side of infrared transmitter 34 and bounces back the infrared rays emitted by infrared transmitter 34, the infrared receiver inside infrared transmitter 34 can determine that the material has reached the appropriate position. Through the microcontroller inside infrared transmitter 34, electric push rod 31 is controlled to push the material to the top of rotating roller 52. Under the rotation of rotating roller 52 and the gravity of the material itself, the material slides down through rotating roller 52 to complete the diversion. Then the command ends and electric push rod 31 returns to its original state.

[0033] Reference Figures 1-5 A guide structure 4 is provided on the inner wall of the conveyor 1 near the scanning component 2 of the pushing structure 3. The guide structure 4 includes a guide plate 41, a reserved groove 42, a roller 43 and a return spring 44. The guide plate 41 is located on one side above the conveyor 1. A reserved groove 42 is opened inside the guide plate 41 near the support 21. Rollers 43 are evenly arranged inside the reserved groove 42. Return springs 44 are evenly fixed on the outer wall of the guide plate 41 away from the rollers 43. One side of the guide plate 41 is hinged to the inner wall of the conveyor 1. Both ends of the rollers 43 are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the guide plate 41. The end of the return spring 44 away from the guide plate 41 is fixedly connected to one side of the conveyor 1. The return springs 44 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the guide plate 41.

[0034] When the material encounters the guide plate 41 during the conveying process, it will continue to move forward under the conveying action of the conveyor 1, and cause the guide plate 41 to tilt until the material leaves one side of the guide plate 41. After the guide plate 41 tilts, it can guide the material in the conveying process, guide the material to the correct route, and prevent the material from hitting the push plate 33.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 A diversion structure 5 is fixed on the side of the conveyor 1 away from the pushing structure 3. The diversion structure 5 includes a diversion plate 51, a rotating roller 52 and a connecting shaft 53. The diversion plate 51 is uniformly fixed on the outer wall of the conveyor 1 away from the pushing structure 3. Rotating rollers 52 are uniformly arranged between adjacent diversion plates 51. A connecting shaft 53 is fixed at both ends of the rotating roller 52. The end of the connecting shaft 53 away from the rotating roller 52 extends into the interior of the diversion plate 51 and is rotatably connected to the diversion plate 51. The rotating rollers 52 are evenly distributed on one side of the diversion plate 51.

[0036] After the material reaches the top of the rotating roller 52, it can easily slide down from the top of the rotating roller 52 under the action of the rotation of the rotating roller 52 and the gravity of the material itself, thus avoiding the material from being stuck due to excessive friction during the diversion process.

[0037] 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.
