Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of logistics and transportation technology, and in particular to a cargo sorting device. Background Technology

[0002] Goods sorting equipment is a system that uses mechanical, automated, or intelligent technologies to classify and organize different types of goods according to preset rules such as order information and goods attributes. Its core consists of sensors, control systems, and actuators. It achieves efficient and accurate sorting through conveyor belts, robotic arms, etc., and is suitable for scenarios such as logistics warehousing and manufacturing. It is currently being upgraded to unmanned and flexible operation by integrating technologies such as AI and 5G.

[0003] In the prior art, a Chinese patent with publication number CN220258772U describes a cargo sorting device. This device includes a belt conveyor with multiple sorting barcode scanners and multiple sorting structures fixed to its upper side. A sliding plate is fixed to one side of the belt conveyor, and sorting boxes and auxiliary boxes are installed under the sliding plate. A discharge port is opened inside the sliding plate, located above the sorting boxes. A first guardrail is installed on one side of the sliding plate, and a second guardrail is installed on one side of the auxiliary box. Both the first and second guardrails correspond to the sorting boxes. A baffle is fixed inside the sorting box. In use, by installing the sorting box and auxiliary box under the sliding plate, when the sorting box is full and being transported away, the baffle is installed on one side of the sliding plate. The device consists of a first-stage sorting box and a second-stage sorting box. The first stage intercepts items, which are then collected in the auxiliary box. Once the items are placed in an empty sorting box, they are poured in, eliminating the need for secondary sorting and improving efficiency. However, during operation, while the electric cylinder and pusher plate are moving the goods for sorting, the belt conveyor continues to run. This keeps the goods in motion, and when the electric cylinder pusher plate moves the goods, they may deviate from their intended trajectory due to inertia, causing them to fall into the collection box at an inaccurate position or even fall outside the passageway. This results in goods falling out, requiring workers to rearrange them, reducing work efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new cargo sorting device to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0015] Compared with related technologies, the cargo sorting device provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] This utility model provides a goods sorting device. In specific implementation, a drive motor drives a drive block to rotate. During the rotation of the drive block, the drive block drives a rotating rod to rotate synchronously, which in turn drives the drive rod to rotate synchronously. During the rotation of the drive rod, when the drive rod moves to the sliding groove, the drive rod first enters the sliding groove. Then, the drive rod continues to rotate, pressing against the side wall of the sliding groove, causing the drive rod to drive a passive block to rotate. After the passive block rotates for a period of time, the drive rod leaves the sliding groove, at which point the passive block stops rotating, allowing the passive block to rotate intermittently. The passive block can drive the conveying device to rotate synchronously and intermittently, allowing the device to intermittently convey goods. During this intermittent conveying process, goods can be sorted. This avoids the conveying device affecting the movement of goods during sorting, making goods sorting more accurate and increasing the device's working efficiency. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 — Figure 4 ,in, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the overall structure of the cargo sorting device provided by this utility model; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model, excluding the collection box; Figure 3A schematic diagram of the conveyor belt structure of the cargo sorting device provided by this utility model; Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the driving block and passive block structure provided by this utility model.

[0024] In practical implementation, a cargo sorting device has the following structure: Figure 1 — Figure 4 As shown, it includes: a driving device, a conveying device, and a pushing device. One side of the driving device is fixedly connected to one side of the conveying device, and one side of the pushing device is fixedly connected to one side of the conveying device.

[0025] The driving device includes: a mounting rod 1, a drive motor 2, a drive block 3, and a driven block 4. One side of the mounting rod 1 is fixedly connected to one side of the conveying device, and the side of the mounting rod 1 away from the conveying device is fixedly connected to one side of the drive motor 2. The output end of the drive motor 2 is fixedly connected to one side of the drive block 3. One side of the driven block 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the conveying device. The side of the drive block 3 fits against the side of the driven block 4. The driven block 4 is provided with four sliding grooves 5. A rotating rod 6 is fixedly connected to one side of the drive block 3, and a drive rod 7 is fixedly connected to one side of the rotating rod 6. The drive rod 7 extends into the sliding grooves 5. The side of the driven block 4 is arc-shaped, and the diameter of the arc on the side of the driven block 4 is equal to the length of the rotating rod 6. The outer wall of the drive rod 7 is smooth.

[0026] It should be noted that in the above device, the drive motor 2 drives the drive block 3 and the rotating rod 6 to rotate synchronously. At this time, the drive rod 7 will also rotate synchronously. When the drive rod 7 moves to the sliding groove 5, the drive rod 7 enters the sliding groove 5 and presses against the inner wall of the sliding groove 5, causing the drive rod 7 to drive the passive block 4 to rotate. Figure 4 As shown, when the drive rod 7 moves to the outside of the sliding groove 5, the device is as follows: Figure 1 as well as Figure 2 As shown, the continued rotation of the drive block 3 will not cause the passive block 4 to rotate. This means that during operation, the continuous rotation of the drive motor 2 will cause the passive block 4 to rotate intermittently. The intermittent rotation of the passive block 4 will cause the rotating column 9 to rotate intermittently, which in turn will cause the conveyor belt to move intermittently. This allows the device to move intermittently, ensuring the goods move intermittently on the conveyor belt 8. During this intermittent movement, the goods are successfully sorted. This device avoids the conveyor system affecting the movement of goods during sorting, making sorting more accurate and increasing the device's efficiency. Furthermore, the passive block 4 has an arc-shaped side, with the arc diameter equal to the length of the rotating rod 6. The outer wall of the moving rod 7 is smooth. These features ensure that when the drive rod 7 is not inside the sliding groove 5, the drive block 3 will not cause the passive block 4 to rotate, thus achieving intermittent rotation of the device.

[0027] The conveying device includes: a conveyor belt 8, a rotating column 9, two mounting plates 10, and multiple round rods 11. The two ends of the rotating column 9 and the multiple round rods 11 are rotatably connected to the opposite sides of the two mounting plates 10. The conveyor belt 8 is movably mounted on the outside of the rotating column 9 and the multiple round rods 11. One side of the passive block 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the rotating column 9. Multiple fixing brackets 12 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the two mounting plates 10. One side of the mounting rod 1 is fixedly connected to one side of the multiple fixing brackets 12. One side of the pushing device is fixedly connected to the side of the two mounting plates 10 away from the multiple fixing brackets 12. A connecting belt 13 is connected to the outside of the rotating column 9 and the multiple round rods 11, and the connecting belt 13 is in contact with the rotating column 9 and the multiple round rods 11. A parking area 14 is provided on the conveyor belt 8.

[0028] It should be noted that in the above device, the intermittent rotation of the passive block 4 will cause the rotating column 9 to rotate intermittently. The rotating column 9 drives multiple round rods 11 to rotate synchronously through the connecting belt 13. The multiple round rods 11 and the rotating column 9 drive the conveyor belt 8 to move intermittently. The parking area 14 set on the conveyor belt 8 is printed on the conveyor belt 8 in the form of a pattern. When in use, goods can be placed inside the parking area 14. The goods move intermittently with the conveyor belt 8. During the intermittent movement, the goods can be sorted.

[0029] The pushing device includes: multiple mounting brackets 15, multiple cylinders 16, and multiple push plates 17. One side of each of the multiple mounting brackets 15 is fixedly connected to the side of each of the two mounting plates 10 away from the multiple fixed brackets 12. A camera 18 is fixedly connected to each of the multiple mounting brackets 15. One side of each of the multiple cylinders 16 is fixedly connected to the side of each of the two mounting plates 10 away from the multiple mounting brackets 15. One side of each of the multiple push plates 17 is fixedly connected to the output end of each of the multiple cylinders 16. The number of multiple cylinders 16 is the same as the number of multiple mounting brackets 15. Multiple collection boxes 19 are movably arranged on one side of the conveyor belt 8. The multiple collection boxes 19 are located on one side of the multiple push plates 17. Each of the multiple collection boxes 19 has a fixedly connected caster wheel 20 at its bottom and a fixedly connected push rod 21 on its side.

[0030] It should be noted that when the goods move to the mounting frame 15 along the conveyor belt 8, the camera 18 scans the goods. When the camera 18 detects that the goods need to be sorted, the cylinder 16 is automatically activated to drive the push plate 17 to push the goods into the collection box 19, thus completing the sorting. In all the above devices, when the passive block 4 drives the rotating column 9 to rotate intermittently, after the conveyor belt 8 moves the goods to the mounting frame 15 and the mounting frame 15 scans the goods, the drive block 3 does not drive the passive block 4 to rotate. That is, the passive block 4 does not drive the rotating column 9 to rotate at this time. At this time, the goods stop at the push plate 17. If the goods need to be sorted, the cylinder 16 activates the push plate 17 to push the goods into the collection box 19. Inside box 19, if the goods do not need to be sorted at this time, the goods will remain for a period of time and then enter the next mounting rack 15. The goods will be scanned again and the process will be repeated until all the goods are sorted. When the device is in use, when the drive block 3 drives the passive block 4 to rotate, the goods will pass under the mounting rack 15 so that the goods can be scanned. When the drive block 3 does not drive the passive block 4 to rotate, the goods are located between the two mounting racks 15. The scanning result of the camera 18 determines whether the goods need to be sorted by the cylinder 16. The mounting plate 10 near the collection box 19 will be set with a guide plate at the position where the goods stop each time, so that when the goods are pushed, the mounting plate 10 will not obstruct the goods from entering the collection box 19.

[0031] The circuits and controls involved in this utility model are all existing technologies, and will not be described in detail here.

[0032] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of this utility model specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
