Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical technology, specifically to an automatic packaging container processing and conveying line. Background Technology
[0002] In logistics sorting systems, sorting machines are typically used to sort packages or mail into different types of packaging bags. Full bags are then conveyed to their destination. Currently, the large bags below the exit of the sorting machine chute are manually changed. A person checks if the large bag is full; if so, the full bag is pulled out, and an empty bag is put in. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides an automatic packaging container handling and conveying line.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, an automated parcel container handling and conveying line is designed, including parcel filling lines arranged on both sides, with a transport trolley between the parcel filling lines arranged on both sides. Each parcel filling line includes an inlet / outlet area and several evenly arranged parcel filling areas. An empty inlet conveyor line is provided in the inlet / outlet area of one parcel filling line, and a fully loaded outlet conveyor line is provided in the inlet / outlet area of the other parcel filling line. Each parcel filling area is equipped with an independent conveyor, and a parcel container is provided on the independent conveyor, with a parcel inside the parcel container.
[0005] A sorting machine is installed above the package filling line, and chutes extending into the package containers are provided on both sides of the sorting machine.
[0006] The sorting machine is located above the packing lines on both sides.
[0007] The package is equipped with a photoelectric detection sensor on one of its upper ends.
[0008] The height of the independent conveyor is the same as the height of the transport trolley.
[0009] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has a compact layout and greatly reduces manual labor. When the package is detected to be full, the transport trolley will transport the full package to the next process and transport the empty package to the empty package filling area, thereby improving the degree of automation. Attached Figure Description
[0010] Figure 1 This is a top view of the present invention.
[0011] Figure 2 This is a side view of the present invention. Detailed Implementation
[0012] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0013] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, parcel filling lines 1 are arranged on both sides, and a transport trolley 2 is provided between the parcel filling lines 1 arranged on both sides. Each parcel filling line 1 includes an inlet / outlet area 1-1 and several evenly arranged parcel filling areas 1-2. An empty inlet conveyor line 1-3 is provided in the inlet / outlet area 1-1 of one parcel filling line 1, and a fully loaded outlet conveyor line 1-4 is provided in the inlet / outlet area 1-1 of the other parcel filling line 1. An independent conveyor 1-5 is provided in each parcel filling area 1-2. A parcel container 1-6 is provided on the independent conveyor 1-5, and a parcel 1-7 is provided in the parcel container 1-6.
[0014] A sorting machine 3 is installed above the package filling line 1. The sorting machine 3 has chutes 4 on both sides extending into the package containers 1-6, feeding materials into the containers. The sorting machine 3 is located above the package filling lines 1 on both sides, with the filling lines 1 strategically positioned to cooperate with the sorting machine 3 in completing the sorting process. In this embodiment, an existing sorting machine is used, and further detailed description is omitted.
[0015] A photoelectric detection sensor 1-8 is installed on one of the upper ends of package 1-7. The photoelectric detection sensor 1-8 is used to determine whether package 1-7 is fully loaded.
[0016] The height of the independent conveyor 1-5 is the same as the height of the transport trolley 2, which makes it easy for the independent conveyor 1-5 to transport the package container 1-6 onto the transport trolley 2.
[0017] In use, materials are conveyed from the sorting machine 3 to the empty parcel containers 1-6 at different locations. After the parcels 1-7 are filled with materials, the independent conveyor 1-5 transports the full-loaded parcel containers 1-6 to the transport trolley 2. The transport trolley 2 then sends the full-loaded parcel containers 1-7 out of the inlet / outlet area 1-1 to the full-load outlet conveyor line 1-4 for the next process. Then, the empty parcel containers 1-7 are sent from the inlet / outlet area 1-1 to the independent conveyor 1-5 in the empty parcel filling area 1-2, and the above process is repeated.
[0018] In actual use, the transport trolley 2 moves back and forth between the two rows of independent conveyors 1-5 to transport fully loaded or empty parcel containers 1-6.
