Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of logistics sorting equipment technology, and in particular to a single-item separation and guiding device for express delivery sorting. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of e-commerce and the express delivery industry, automated sorting systems are increasingly widely used in logistics centers. These systems typically rely on high-speed conveyor belt systems to quickly transport and plan routes for massive amounts of packages. During automated transport, in order to ensure that subsequent processes such as barcode scanning, weighing, and route sorting can be executed accurately, it is necessary to ensure that the packages on the conveyor belt can move in single, equally spaced queues.

[0003] However, in actual operation, due to uneven delivery speed of packages at the front end or during merging, packages often end up close, stack side by side, or even overlap each other. Once this chaotic package flow enters the subsequent processing unit, it can easily cause scanning failures, misreading of information, and errors in robotic arm grasping, seriously affecting the efficiency and accuracy of the entire sorting line. In addition, the use of soft express bags has been increasing in recent years. Due to their soft texture, irregular shape, and low surface friction coefficient, these packages are prone to slipping, getting stuck, or deviating from the predetermined trajectory when transported on the conveyor belt. Once a blockage occurs, it will cause the assembly line to stop, requiring manual intervention to restore it. This is also a major technical bottleneck affecting the efficiency of automated sorting.

[0004] Therefore, this utility model proposes a single-item separation and guiding device for express delivery sorting to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the problems in the existing technology of express delivery sorting equipment, such as the easy stacking and compression of express packages during transportation, and the easy jamming of soft packages, resulting in low sorting efficiency and unstable equipment operation, this utility model aims to provide a single-item separation and guiding device for express delivery sorting with an improved structure that can effectively solve the above problems.

[0006] This utility model provides a single-item separation and guiding device for express sorting, including: a body, a guide channel disposed on the body; and a sliding mechanism and a rotating mechanism.

[0007] The sliding mechanism includes a flexible baffle that is movably disposed in the guide channel, and a drive component that drives the flexible baffle to block or release movement in the guide channel; the rotating mechanism includes a rotating column and an execution component that drives the rotating column to rotate, and a brush is provided on the outer periphery of the rotating column.

[0008] Furthermore, the sliding mechanism and the rotating mechanism are combined by being arranged sequentially along the package conveying direction of the guide channel.

[0009] Preferably, the drive assembly includes an electric push rod; the sliding mechanism further includes an L-shaped fixing block and a rotating rod, the L-shaped fixing block is fixed to the body and supports the electric push rod, the output end of the electric push rod is hinged to the rotating rod, and the other end of the rotating rod is connected to the flexible baffle.

[0010] Preferably, the drive assembly further includes a U-shaped connecting block, and the output end of the electric push rod is connected to the rotating rod through the U-shaped connecting block.

[0011] Preferably, the sliding mechanism further includes a connecting block, which is connected to the L-shaped fixed block and supports the middle part of the rotating rod.

[0012] Preferably, the actuating component includes a motor, a driving wheel connected to the output end of the motor, and a driven wheel meshing with the driving wheel; the driven wheel drives the rotating column to rotate.

[0013] Preferably, the rotating mechanism further includes a connecting column, the driven wheel drives the connecting column, and the connecting column drives the rotating column to rotate.

[0014] Preferably, the actuation component further includes a pad, through which the motor is mounted on the body.

[0015] Preferably, the rotation axis of the rotating column is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the package, and the top surface of the rotating column is flush with the conveying surface of the guide channel.

[0016] Preferably, the single-item separation and guiding device for express sorting further includes a steering roller plate, which is disposed downstream of the conveying mechanism of the rotating mechanism.

[0017] This utility model has the following beneficial effects: 1. This utility model solves the problem in the prior art that express parcels are prone to stacking and side-by-side squeezing during transportation, leading to difficulties in subsequent identification and parcel deformation, by setting a sliding mechanism in which the movement of the soft baffle is controlled by a drive component. It achieves the technical effect of forcibly separating parcels, ensuring that individual items pass through in sequence, and improving sorting accuracy.

[0018] 2. This utility model solves the problem in the prior art that soft parcels such as express delivery bags are prone to jamming and slipping on the conveyor belt due to their soft texture and low friction, which affects the continuous operation of the equipment. It achieves the technical effect of actively providing auxiliary thrust for soft parcels, preventing blockages, and ensuring smooth conveying process.

[0019] 3. This utility model solves the problem that existing technologies require multiple devices to achieve the corresponding functions, resulting in complex structures and large footprints, by integrating the sliding mechanism for separation and the rotating mechanism for anti-jamming onto the same body. It achieves the technical effect of compact equipment structure, comprehensive functions, stable and reliable operation, and effectively improves the integration and practicality of the equipment.

[0022] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0023] Example: Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides a single-item separation and guiding device for express delivery sorting, which aims to solve the problems in the prior art where express parcels are easily stacked and squeezed during transportation, and soft bag parcels are easily jammed, affecting sorting efficiency.

[0024] like Figure 1and Figure 2 As shown, the single-item separation and guiding device for express sorting includes a body 1 and a guide channel 4 set on the body 1. It also includes a sliding mechanism 2 and a rotating mechanism 3. The sliding mechanism 2 and the rotating mechanism 3 are arranged sequentially along the package conveying direction of the guide channel 4. The body 1 provides the installation foundation for the entire device. The guide channel 4 is used to carry and convey packages. The sliding mechanism 2 is used to realize the single-item separation of packages. The rotating mechanism 3 is used to prevent soft bag packages from getting stuck on the guide channel 4. A steering roller plate 5 is also set downstream of the conveying of the rotating mechanism 3.

[0025] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this embodiment is that the single-item separation and guiding device for express sorting is realized through the structural cooperation of sliding mechanism 2 and rotating mechanism 3.

[0026] Please refer to the following carefully. Figure 3 The sliding mechanism 2 will be described in detail below: The sliding mechanism 2 includes a flexible baffle 201, an L-shaped fixing block 202, a drive assembly 203, and a connecting block 204. The L-shaped fixing block 202 is fixedly connected to the body 1. The drive assembly 203 includes an electric push rod 2031, a rotating rod 2032, and a U-shaped connecting block 2033. The electric push rod 2031 is fixedly supported by the L-shaped fixing block 202. The output end of the electric push rod 2031 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 2032 through the U-shaped connecting block 2033. The other end of the rotating rod 2032 is fixedly connected to the flexible baffle 201. The connecting block 204 is connected to the L-shaped fixing block 202 and supports the middle part of the rotating rod 2032. The flexible baffle 201 is movably arranged in the guide channel 4. The electric push rod 2031 extends and retracts to drive the rotating rod 2032 to swing, thereby driving the flexible baffle 201 to block or release within the guide channel 4. This linkage drive structure ensures the stability and reliability of the separation action.

[0027] Please refer to the following carefully. Figure 4 The rotating mechanism 3 will be described in detail below: The rotating mechanism 3 includes a rotating column 301, a connecting column 302, and an execution component 303. A brush 304 is fixedly installed on the outer periphery of the rotating column 301. The execution component 303 includes a motor 3031, a pad 3032, a drive wheel 3033, and a driven wheel 305. The motor 3031 is fixedly installed on the machine body 1 through the pad 3032. The output end of the motor 3031 is fixedly connected to the drive wheel 3033. The drive wheel 3033 meshes with the driven wheel 305 for transmission. The driven wheel 305 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting column 302. The connecting column 302 drives the rotating column 301 to rotate synchronously. The rotation axis of the rotating column 301 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the package, and the top surface of the rotating column 301 is flush with the conveying surface of the guide channel 4. This transmission structure allows the brush 304 on the rotating column 301 to apply an auxiliary pushing force to the soft bag package on the guide channel 4 when the rotating column 301 rotates.

[0028] Based on the above embodiments, the present invention may further include the following preferred technical solutions: The specific implementation of the drive component 203 is as follows: an electric push rod 2031 is used, and an L-shaped fixing block 202 is fixedly connected to the body 1 for installation, positioning and support of the electric push rod 2031. The output end of the electric push rod 2031 is rotatably connected to one end of the rotating rod 2032 through a U-shaped connecting block 2033. The other end of the rotating rod 2032 is fixedly connected to the flexible baffle 201. In order to increase the structural stability of the rotating rod 2032 during the swinging process, the sliding mechanism 2 is also provided with a connecting long block 204. The connecting long block 204 is connected to the L-shaped fixing block 202 and supports the middle part of the rotating rod 2032. The execution component 303 is specifically implemented by using a motor 3031 as a power source. The motor 3031 is fixedly mounted on the machine body 1 through a pad 3032. The output shaft end of the motor 3031 is fixedly connected to the drive wheel 3033. The drive wheel 3033 is connected to the driven wheel 305 through gear meshing. The driven wheel 305 is fixedly connected to the connecting column 302. The connecting column 302 is fixedly connected to the rotating column 301, thereby transmitting the rotational power of the motor 3031 to the rotating column 301. To ensure that the brush 304 can make effective contact with the package on the guide channel 4, the rotation axis of the rotating column 301 is set perpendicular to the conveying direction of the package, and the top surface of the rotating column 301 is flush with the conveying surface of the guide channel 4. To guide the separated individual packages into the next sorting process, the equipment also has a steering roller plate 5 installed downstream of the conveyor of the rotating mechanism 3.

[0029] Working principle: When the machine body 1 is started, the package begins to be conveyed through the guide channel 4. When the package is conveyed to a certain position, the electric push rod 2031 is activated. Under the action of the U-shaped connecting block 2033, the rotating rod 2032 is driven to rotate. The L-shaped fixing block 202 supports the electric push rod 2031 and the connecting long block 204. Under the action of the connecting long block 204, the middle part of the rotating rod 2032 is supported. Through the action of the drive component 203, the soft baffle 201 is finally moved, so that the sliding mechanism 2 separates the packages on the guide channel 4, so that the individual packages move in sequence to prevent the packages from stacking and causing deformation. Then, the package is transported to the designated position through the steering roller plate 5. The motor 3031 is started and connected to the machine body 1 via the pad 3032. Driven by the rotor of the motor 3031, the drive wheel 3033 starts to rotate. Under the action of gear meshing, the drive wheel 3033 drives the driven wheel 305 to rotate. The kinetic energy is transmitted through the actuator 303, which in turn causes the connecting column 302 to drive the rotating column 301 to rotate. Finally, the rotation of the rotating column 301 drives the brushes 304 around it to move, and finally displaces the soft bag wrapping on the guide channel 4. The rotating mechanism 3 prevents the soft bag wrapping from getting stuck on the guide channel 4, which would affect the normal operation of the equipment.
