[0039] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The preferred embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] This utility model embodiment provides a sorting system 1000, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the sorting system 1000 includes a mounting frame 100, a conveyor belt 200, a pushing mechanism 300, and a sorting frame 400. The mounting frame 100 includes two sets of uprights 110, two conveyor belt mounting rods 120, a pushing mechanism mounting rod 130, and a sorting frame mounting rod 140. Each set of uprights 110 includes a first direction (see reference). Figure 1 Two columns 111 are spaced apart in the X direction (as shown), and the columns 111 in the two sets of columns 110 are in the second direction (refer to...). Figure 1 The columns are arranged one-to-one in the Y direction (as shown). Two conveyor belt mounting rods 120 are spaced apart in the first direction, and two pairs of corresponding columns 111 in the second direction are connected by the conveyor belt mounting rods 120. The conveyor belt 200 is mounted on the conveyor belt mounting rods 120 and is used to transport materials in the first direction. In one set of column groups 110, two columns 111 are connected by a pushing mechanism mounting rod 130. The pushing mechanism 300 is mounted on the pushing mechanism mounting rod 130 and is located on one side of the conveyor belt 200, used to push the material out of the conveyor belt 200. In another set of column groups 110, two columns 111 are connected by a sorting frame mounting rod 140. The sorting frame 400 is mounted on the sorting frame mounting rod 140 and is located on the other side of the conveyor belt 200, used to receive the material pushed out of the conveyor belt 200. The first direction, the second direction, and the gravity direction (refer to...) Figure 1 The three directions (shown in the Z direction) are perpendicular to each other.

[0041] The sorting system 1000 provided in this embodiment shares a single mounting frame 100 with its conveyor belt 200, pushing mechanism 300, and sorting frame 400. Therefore, compared with the prior art, which provides separate mounting frames 100 for the conveyor belt 200, pushing mechanism 300, and sorting frame 400, the manufacturing cost of the sorting system 1000 is relatively low.

[0042] Specifically, the mounting frame 100 includes two sets of column groups 110, two conveyor belt mounting rods 120, a pusher mechanism mounting rod 130, and a sorting frame mounting rod 140. Each set of column groups 110 includes two columns 111 spaced apart in a first direction, and the columns 111 in the two sets of column groups 110 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence in a second direction. The pusher mechanism mounting rod 130 for mounting the pusher mechanism 300 connects the columns 111 in one set of column groups 110 together. The sorting frame mounting rod 140 for mounting the sorting frame 400 connects the columns 111 in the other set of column groups 110 together. The conveyor belt 200 is mounted on a separate rod. The conveyor belt mounting rod 120 connects the two sets of column groups 110, with the columns 111 arranged one-to-one in the second direction. In this way, the multiple columns 111 arranged in a matrix are connected together by the conveyor belt mounting rod 120, the pusher mechanism mounting rod 130 and the sorting frame mounting rod 140 to form a mounting frame 100 for mounting the conveyor belt 200, the pusher mechanism 300 and the sorting frame 400. Therefore, compared with the prior art of separately equipping the conveyor belt 200, the pusher mechanism 300 and the sorting frame 400 with mounting frames 100, implementing this embodiment can achieve the beneficial effect of reducing the manufacturing cost of the sorting system 1000.

[0043] It is worth mentioning that the two columns 111 are the minimum number of columns 111 in each column group 110. The column group 110 can also include more columns 111. At this time, the minimum number of conveyor belt mounting rods 120 will also increase. The minimum number of pusher mechanism mounting rods 130 and sorting frame mounting rods 140 can be increased or not. For example, when there are three columns 111 in the column group 110, there are at least three conveyor belt mounting rods 120 so that three pairs of columns 111 are respectively connected in the second direction; when there are three columns 111 in the column group 110, in one group of column groups 110, the two adjacent columns 111 in the first direction need to be connected by the pusher mechanism mounting rod 130. At this time, there can be at least two pusher mechanism mounting rods 130, or one longer pusher mechanism mounting rod 130 that can connect three upright pusher mechanism mounting rods 130 at the same time; when there are three columns 111 in the column group 110, in another group of column groups 110, the two adjacent columns 111 in the first direction need to be connected by the sorting frame mounting rod 140. At this time, there can be at least two sorting frame mounting rods 140, or one longer sorting frame mounting rod 140 that can connect three columns 111 at the same time.

[0044] refer to Figures 3-5In a specific embodiment, the mounting frame 100 further includes a mounting assembly (not shown in the figure), which includes two first screws (not shown in the figure). The conveyor belt mounting rod 120 is provided with a first mounting hole 121. The conveyor belt 200 includes a base 210, a plurality of rollers 220 and a belt body 230. The base 210 is provided with two second mounting holes 211, which are spaced apart in a first direction to correspond one-to-one with the two first mounting holes 121. The two first screws are respectively passed through the two first mounting holes 121 and the two second mounting holes 211 to mount the base 210 onto the conveyor belt mounting rod 120. The plurality of rollers 220 are spaced apart in a first direction on the base 210 and support the belt body 230 to guide the belt body 230 to run.

[0045] This embodiment demonstrates a specific implementation of a conveyor belt 200 mounted on a conveyor belt mounting rod 120. Specifically, the base 210 of the conveyor belt 200 is mounted on the conveyor belt mounting rod 120 using a first screw. This generates a large axial preload and has strong fatigue resistance, ensuring that the base 210 and the conveyor belt mounting rod 120 are firmly connected together, thus ensuring the reliability and stability of the connection.

[0046] Specifically, the first screw includes a first bolt (not shown in the figure) and a first nut (not shown in the figure). The first nut is sleeved on the tail of the first bolt. The base 210 and the conveyor belt mounting rod 120 are clamped by the first nut and the head of the first bolt, so that the base 210 and the conveyor belt mounting rod 120 can be firmly connected together.

[0047] In other embodiments, the base 210 and the conveyor belt mounting rod 120 can also be firmly connected by welding, which also results in a relatively high connection strength between the base 210 and the conveyor belt 200.

[0048] It is worth mentioning that the conveyor belt 200 is a commonly used mechanism for transporting materials in the prior art and is common knowledge to those skilled in the art. Since the conveyor belt 200 in the prior art mostly includes the base 210, several rollers 220 and belt body 230 shown in this embodiment, it can be seen that the specific connection method and driving method of the base 210, several rollers 220 and belt body 230 are common knowledge to those skilled in the art, so this embodiment will not describe them in detail here.

[0049] refer to Figures 3-5In a specific embodiment, the first mounting hole 121 is a strip-shaped hole extending in the second direction, and the second mounting hole 211 is a strip-shaped hole extending in the first direction. This configuration allows the position of the conveyor belt 200 to be adjusted in the second direction using the first mounting hole 121 to compensate for negative impacts caused by design errors, processing errors, and assembly errors. Similarly, the second mounting hole 211 can be used to adjust the installation position of the conveyor belt 200 in the first direction to compensate for negative impacts caused by design errors, processing errors, and assembly errors.

[0050] Optionally, the first mounting hole 121 can be replaced with a strip hole extending in the first direction, in which case the second mounting hole 211 needs to be replaced with a strip hole extending in the second direction.

[0051] refer to Figures 6-10 In the specific embodiment of the first screw connecting base 210 and the conveyor belt mounting rod 120 described above, each column group 110 includes a first side 1111 facing the other column group 110. The first side 1111 is provided with a first connecting plate 11111 and a first reinforcing plate 11112. The first connecting plate 11111 is perpendicular to the direction of gravity, and the first reinforcing plate 11112 is connected to the bottom of the first connecting plate 11111. The first reinforcing plate 11112 is perpendicular to the first direction, and the two ends of the conveyor belt mounting rod 120 are respectively mounted on the first connecting plates 11111 of the two columns 111.

[0052] Specifically, the first connecting plate 11111 is perpendicular to the direction of gravity, resulting in poor structural strength and a tendency to bend in the direction of gravity under excessive force. To increase the structural strength of the first connecting plate 11111 and reduce the probability of bending under stress, this embodiment includes a first reinforcing plate 11112. The first reinforcing plate 11112 connects the first side 1111 to the bottom of the first connecting plate 11111, and is perpendicular to the first direction. Therefore, the first reinforcing plate 11112 can withstand a larger force in the direction of gravity, thus strengthening the first connecting plate 11111 and reducing the probability of bending under stress.

[0053] Optionally, the conveyor belt 200 can be installed on the first connecting plate 11111 by means of screws (not shown in the figure), welding or other methods. This embodiment does not limit this.

[0054] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 6 , Figure 11 and Figure 12In some embodiments, the mounting assembly further includes a second screw (not shown in the figure), and the pusher mechanism mounting rod 130 is provided with a third mounting hole 131. The pusher mechanism 300 includes a first mounting block 310, a telescopic drive member 320, and a pusher block 330. The first mounting block 310 is provided with a fourth mounting hole 311 corresponding to the third mounting hole 131. The second screw passes through the third mounting hole 131 and the fourth mounting hole 311 to mount the first mounting block 310 onto the mounting rod.

[0055] This embodiment illustrates a specific implementation of a pusher mechanism 300 mounted on a pusher mechanism mounting rod 130. Specifically, a second screw is used to mount a first mounting block 310 for mounting a telescopic drive component 320 onto the pusher mechanism mounting rod 130. This generates a large axial preload and has strong fatigue resistance, ensuring that the first mounting block 310 is firmly connected to the pusher mechanism mounting rod 130, thus ensuring the reliability and stability of the connection.

[0056] It should be noted that the telescopic drive component 320 can be a telescopic cylinder, telescopic motor, or other products, as long as it can drive the push block 330 to move relative to the sorting frame 400 in the second direction. This embodiment does not limit it.

[0057] Specifically, the second screw includes a second bolt (not shown in the figure) and a second nut (not shown in the figure). The second nut is sleeved on the tail of the second bolt. The first mounting block 310 and the pusher mechanism mounting rod 130 are clamped by the second nut and the head of the second bolt, so that the first mounting block 310 and the pusher mechanism mounting rod 130 can be firmly connected together.

[0058] refer to Figure 11 and Figure 12 In a specific embodiment, the third mounting hole 131 is a strip-shaped hole extending in the first direction, and the fourth mounting hole 311 is a strip-shaped hole extending in the gravity direction. This arrangement allows the third mounting hole 131 to be used to adjust the positions of the first mounting block 310, the telescopic drive member 320, and the push block 330 in the first direction, compensating for negative impacts caused by design errors, manufacturing errors, and assembly errors. Similarly, the fourth mounting hole 311 can be used to adjust the mounting positions of the first mounting block 310, the telescopic drive member 320, and the push block 330 in the gravity direction, further compensating for negative impacts caused by design errors, manufacturing errors, and assembly errors.

[0059] Optionally, the third mounting hole 131 can also be replaced with a strip hole extending in the direction of gravity, in which case the fourth mounting hole 311 needs to be replaced with a strip hole extending in the first direction.

[0060] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 12In the specific embodiment of the above-mentioned pushing mechanism 300 including the first mounting block 310, the pushing mechanism 300 also includes a second mounting block 340. The second mounting block 340 is mounted on the side of the base 210 away from the sorting frame 400. The telescopic drive member 320 includes a fixed part 321 and a telescopic part (not shown in the figure). The two sides of the fixed part 321 are respectively mounted on the first mounting block 310 and the second mounting block 340. The telescopic part passes through the fixed part 321 and the second mounting block 340 and is connected to the pushing block 330.

[0061] In this embodiment, the two sides of the telescopic drive member 320 can be fixed by the first mounting block 310 and the second mounting block 340 respectively. Compared with the embodiment in which the telescopic drive member 320 is fixed only by the first mounting block 310, the connection stability of the telescopic drive member 320 is higher and it is less likely to shake during use.

[0062] It is worth mentioning that since the second mounting block 340 is mounted on the base 210, and the base 210 is already present in the conveyor belt 200 and is not a new component, it can be seen that the installation position of the second mounting block 340 in this embodiment is cleverly designed, which can save installation costs.

[0063] Optionally, the second mounting block 340 can be mounted on the side of the base 210 away from the sorting frame 400 by means of screws (not shown in the figure) or welding. This embodiment does not limit this.

[0064] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 10 In some embodiments, in the column group 110 equipped with the pusher mechanism mounting rod 130, adjacent columns 111 each include a second side 1112 facing each other. The second side 1112 is provided with a second connecting plate 11121 and a second reinforcing plate 11122. The second connecting plate 11121 is perpendicular to the direction of gravity. The second reinforcing plate 11122 is connected to the bottom of the second connecting plate 11121 and is perpendicular to the second direction. The two ends of the pusher mechanism mounting rod 130 are respectively provided on the second connecting plates 11121 of the two columns 111.

[0065] Specifically, the second connecting plate 11121 is perpendicular to the direction of gravity, resulting in poor structural strength and a tendency to bend in the direction of gravity under excessive force. To increase the structural strength of the second connecting plate 11121 and reduce the probability of bending under stress, this embodiment includes a second reinforcing plate 11122. The second reinforcing plate 11122 connects the second side surface 1112 to the bottom of the second connecting plate 11121, and is perpendicular to the second direction. Therefore, the second reinforcing plate 11122 can withstand a larger force in the direction of gravity, thus strengthening the second connecting plate 11121 and reducing the probability of bending under stress.

[0066] Optionally, the pusher mechanism mounting rod 130 can be installed on the second connecting plate 11121 by means of screws (not shown in the figure), welding or other methods. This embodiment does not limit this.

[0067] refer to Figure 1 , Figures 13-15 In some embodiments, the mounting assembly further includes a third screw (not shown in the figure), a fifth mounting hole 141 is provided on the sorting frame mounting rod 140, the sorting frame 400 includes a back plate 410 away from the conveyor belt 200, the back plate 410 is provided with a sixth mounting hole 411 corresponding to the fifth mounting hole 141, and the third screw passes through the fifth mounting hole 141 and the sixth mounting hole 411 to mount the sorting frame 400 on the sorting frame mounting rod 140.

[0068] This embodiment demonstrates a specific implementation of a sorting frame 400 mounted on a sorting frame mounting rod 140. Specifically, a third screw is used to mount the back plate 410 of the sorting frame 400 onto the sorting frame mounting rod 140. This generates a large axial preload and has strong fatigue resistance, ensuring that the back plate 410 and the sorting frame mounting rod 140 are firmly connected together, thus ensuring the reliability and stability of the connection.

[0069] Specifically, the third screw includes a third bolt (not shown in the figure) and a third nut (not shown in the figure). The third nut is fitted onto the tail of the third bolt. The back plate 410 and the sorting frame mounting rod 140 are clamped together by the third nut and the head of the third bolt, so that the back plate 410 and the sorting frame mounting rod 140 can be firmly connected together.

[0070] refer to Figure 15In a specific embodiment, the fifth mounting hole 141 is a strip-shaped hole extending in the first direction, and the sixth mounting hole 411 is a strip-shaped hole extending in the gravity direction. This arrangement allows the fifth mounting hole 141 to be used to adjust the position of the sorting frame 400 in the first direction, compensating for the negative impacts of design errors, processing errors, and assembly errors. Similarly, the sixth mounting hole 411 can be used to adjust the mounting position of the sorting frame 400 in the gravity direction, also compensating for the negative impacts of design errors, processing errors, and assembly errors.

[0071] Alternatively, the fifth mounting hole 141 can be replaced with a strip hole extending in the direction of gravity, in which case the sixth mounting hole 411 needs to be replaced with a strip hole extending in the first direction.

[0072] refer to Figure 15 In some embodiments, the mounting assembly further includes two fourth screws (not shown in the figure), the mounting frame 100 further includes two mounting buckles 150, and the column 111 in the column assembly 110 equipped with the sorting frame mounting rod 140 includes a third side 1113 facing away from the pushing mechanism 300. The third side 1113 is provided with two seventh mounting holes 11131 spaced apart in the direction of gravity. The mounting buckle 150 includes two connecting portions 151 and a recess 152. The two connecting portions 151 are spaced apart in the direction of gravity, and each connecting portion 151 is provided with an eighth mounting hole 1511. The eighth mounting holes 1511 correspond one-to-one with the seventh mounting holes 11131. The fourth screws pass through the seventh mounting holes 11131 and the eighth mounting holes 1511 to mount the mounting buckle 150 to the third side 1113. The recess 152 is connected to two connecting portions 151. A groove is formed on the side of the recess 152 facing the third side 1113. The groove is used to accommodate the sorting frame mounting rod 140.

[0073] This embodiment illustrates a specific implementation of a sorting frame mounting rod 140 mounted on a column 111. Specifically, two mounting buckles 150 are used to secure the sorting frame mounting rod 140 to the third side 1113 of the column 111. Since the mounting buckles 150 are connected to the third side 1113 on both sides in the gravity direction via fourth screws, compared to a technical solution where they are only connected to the third side 1113 on one side in the gravity direction, the mounting buckles 150 have a stronger load-bearing capacity and can better support the sorting frame mounting rod 140 and the sorting frame 400 mounted on it. Furthermore, using the fourth screws to mount the mounting buckles 150 to the third side 1113 generates a larger axial preload and has strong fatigue resistance, ensuring the mounting buckles 150 are firmly attached to the third side 1113, guaranteeing the reliability and stability of the connection.

[0074] Specifically, the mounting buckle 150 can be welded to the sorting frame mounting rod 140 to improve connection stability.

[0075] refer to Figure 15 In a specific embodiment, the eighth mounting hole 1511 is a strip-shaped hole extending in the direction of gravity. This design allows the position of the mounting buckle 150 to be adjusted in the direction of gravity using the eighth mounting hole 1511, thereby compensating for the negative impacts of design errors, manufacturing errors, and assembly errors.

[0076] refer to Figure 5 and Figure 13 In a specific embodiment, the back plate 410 is provided with a side plate 420 on each side in the first direction, so that the back plate 410 can cooperate with the two side plates 420 to form a material discharge channel 430. The entrance 431 of the material discharge channel 430 is formed on the side of the side plate 420 away from the back plate 410. The sorting frame 400 also includes a connector 440, which is connected to the two side plates 420 and the side of the base 210 facing the back plate 410.

[0077] By implementing this embodiment, the sorting frame 400 is connected to the sorting frame mounting rod 140 and the base 210 on both sides in the second direction, respectively. Compared with the embodiment in which the sorting frame 400 is only connected to the base 210, the connection stability of the sorting frame 400 in this embodiment is higher and it is less likely to shake during use.

[0078] Optionally, the connector 440 can be connected to the base 210 and the side plate 420 by means of screws (not shown in the figure) or by welding. This embodiment does not limit this connection.

[0079] Specifically, the connector 440 is a guide plate 441. The guide plate 441 extends gradually from the side near the base 210 toward the direction of gravity and toward the back plate 410. In this way, the connector 440 can not only improve the connection stability of the sorting frame 400, but also provide guidance for the materials pushed out of the conveyor belt 200.

[0080] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 13 In a specific embodiment, the sorting frame 400 also includes a base plate 450, which is disposed at the bottom of the back plate 410 and the side plate 420. The base plate 450 is gradually inclined and extended from the side near the base 210 in the direction of gravity and away from the base 210 to define the outlet 432 of the material discharge channel 430.

[0081] In actual use, after the pushing mechanism 300 pushes the material on the conveyor belt 200 into the inlet 431, the material will fall to the bottom plate 450 due to gravity. Since the bottom plate 450 is gradually inclined and extended from the side close to the base 210 towards the direction of gravity and away from the base 210, the material will be guided by the bottom plate 450 to move away from the inlet 431 and finally discharged through the outlet 432 between the bottom plate 450 and the back plate 410.

[0082] More specifically, the sorting frame 400 has several back plates 410, each back plate 410 having side plates 420 on both sides in the first direction, and several corresponding drop channels 430 are formed, arranged along the first direction. Several telescopic drive members 320 and push blocks 330 are also provided, all arranged along the first direction. Each drop channel 430 corresponds to one telescopic drive member 320 and one push block 330 in the second direction. It should be noted that the multiple drop channels 430 are used to receive materials from different delivery areas. In the prior art, a barcode scanner (not shown in the figure) is installed at the beginning of the conveyor belt 200, which is connected in a feedback manner to several telescopic drive members 320. The barcode scanner obtains delivery area information by scanning the barcodes and QR codes on the materials, and then notifies the corresponding telescopic drive member 320 to push the items into the corresponding drop channel 430, thereby completing the sorting of the items.

[0083] More specifically, operators can set up sorting bags at outlet 432. Materials discharged from outlet 432 will enter the sorting bags, and when the sorting bags are full, they only need to be replaced.

[0084] refer to Figures 1-3 In a specific embodiment, there may be multiple conveyor belts 200, arranged in layers. Correspondingly, there may be multiple pushing mechanisms 300, arranged in layers to correspond to the multiple conveyor belts 200. The sorting boxes 400 do not need to be arranged in layers; as shown in Figure 1, the sorting boxes 400 can correspond to multiple layers of conveyor belts 200 and pushing mechanisms 300.

[0085] It should be noted that when there are several layers of conveyor belt 200 and several layers of pusher mechanism 300, corresponding conveyor belt mounting rod 120 and pusher mechanism mounting rod 130 also need to be set in layers.

[0086] By implementing this embodiment, the sorting system 1000 with the same floor space can sort more materials at a lower cost.

[0087] refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments, the mounting frame 100 further includes a first crossbar 160. In one set of uprights 110, two adjacent uprights 111 are connected by the first crossbar 160.

[0088] Specifically, the first crossbar 160 can increase the connection stability of two adjacent columns 111 in one of the column groups 110, thus increasing the stability of the mounting frame 100 to a certain extent.

[0089] Optionally, the first crossbar 160 and the column 111 can be connected by screws (not shown in the figure) or by welding. This embodiment does not limit this connection.

[0090] refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments, the mounting frame 100 further includes a second crossbar 170, wherein in another set of uprights 110, two adjacent uprights 111 are connected by the second crossbar 170.

[0091] Specifically, the second crossbar 170 can increase the connection stability of two adjacent columns 111 in another set of columns 110, thus increasing the stability of the mounting frame 100 to a certain extent.

[0092] Optionally, the second crossbar 170 and the column 111 can be connected by screws (not shown in the figure) or by welding. This embodiment does not limit this connection.

[0093] refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments, the mounting frame 100 further includes two longitudinal bars 180. The two longitudinal bars 180 are spaced apart in a first direction, and the tops of each pair of two columns 111 corresponding to each other in a second direction are connected by the longitudinal bars 180.

[0094] Specifically, the longitudinal bar 180 can connect the corresponding uprights 111 in the second direction, thus increasing the stability of the mounting frame 100 to a certain extent.

[0095] Optionally, the longitudinal bar 180 and the column 111 can be connected by screws (not shown in the figure) or by welding. This embodiment does not limit this connection.

[0096] It should be noted that when the first horizontal bar 160, the second horizontal bar 170 and the vertical bar 180 are provided simultaneously, the stability of the mounting frame 100 is the highest, which is the preferred embodiment of this utility model.

[0097] It should be understood that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Those skilled in the art can modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features; and all such modifications and substitutions should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims of this utility model.
