For small and medium-sized warehousing enterprises, the cost of modification is unbearable. There is an urgent need to design an automated sorting and conveying device for picking goods to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an automatic sorting and conveying device for picking goods, so as to solve the above-mentioned shortcomings in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] An automatic sorting and conveying device for picking goods includes a base plate, a frame mounted on the top of the base plate, an assembly frame mounted on the top of the frame, a plurality of conveying rollers rotatably coupled within the assembly frame, a drive mechanism disposed between the plurality of conveying rollers, a top plate disposed on the top of the frame, and an identification mechanism disposed at the bottom of the top plate.

[0007] At least two fixed frames are installed on the top of the base plate. The two fixed frames are located on both sides of the frame. A rotating shaft is rotatably fitted inside the fixed frame. A first motor is installed on one side of the fixed frame. The output end of the first motor is connected to the rotating shaft.

[0021] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] like Figure 1-4 As shown in the figure, this utility model provides an automatic sorting and conveying device for picking goods.

[0023] It includes a base plate 1, a frame 2 installed on the top of the base plate 1, an assembly frame 3 installed on the top of the frame 2, multiple conveying rollers 4 rotating and cooperating inside the assembly frame 3, a drive mechanism 5 arranged between the multiple conveying rollers 4, a top plate 6 set on the top of the frame 2, and an identification mechanism 7 set at the bottom of the top plate 6.

[0024] At least two fixed frames 8 are installed on the top of the base plate 1. The two fixed frames 8 are located on both sides of the frame 2. A rotating shaft 9 is rotatably fitted inside the fixed frame 8. A first motor 10 is installed on one side of the fixed frame 8. The output end of the first motor 10 is connected to the rotating shaft 9. Multiple diversion rods 11 are equidistantly arranged on the circumference of the rotating shaft 9. The diversion rods 11 pass through the gap between the two conveying rollers 4 to divert the goods.

[0025] Reference Figure 1 In this embodiment, multiple connecting rods 12 are provided between the top plate 6 and the frame 2. The identification mechanism 7 includes multiple scanners 13 installed in the top plate 6 and two photoelectric sensors 14 respectively installed at both ends of the top plate 6. The scanners 13 can scan the codes of the goods, and the two photoelectric sensors 14 record the entry and exit of the goods for statistical purposes.

[0026] Reference Figure 2In this embodiment, the drive mechanism 5 includes a second motor 15 mounted on one side of the assembly frame 3 and synchronous double wheels 16 mounted on one end of multiple conveying rollers 4. The second motor 15 is connected to one end of one of the conveying rollers 4, and a synchronous belt 17 is fitted between each pair of adjacent synchronous double wheels 16. The second motor 15 drives one of the conveying rollers 4 to rotate, which in turn drives the synchronous double wheels 16 to rotate. The synchronous double wheels 16 drive the other synchronous double wheel 16 and the conveying roller 4 to rotate via the synchronous belt 17, thereby driving multiple conveying rollers 4 to rotate and convey. When installing the synchronous double wheels 16, they can be installed on both ends of one of the conveying rollers 4, so that part of the synchronous double wheels 16 and the synchronous belt 17 are located on the other side of the assembly frame 3, without affecting the diversion of the diversion rod 11.

[0027] Reference Figure 3 In this embodiment, the assembly frame 3 includes multiple mounting plates 18 of varying lengths, which are mounted above the frame 2. Multiple conveyor rollers 4 are rotatably engaged between the mounting plates 18, and multiple auxiliary rollers 19 are rotatably engaged between the mounting plates 18. The fixing frame 8 corresponds to the gap between two mounting plates 18. A support rod 20 is mounted on the frame 2, which is rotatably engaged with one end of the conveyor roller 4 located in the gap between two mounting plates 18. The mounting plates 18 allow multiple mounting plates 18 to be spliced ​​and installed onto the frame 2. Gaps are reserved as needed to allow the diverting rod 11 to pass through the gap and the conveyor roller 4 to carry away goods. The auxiliary rollers 19 are located between two conveyor rollers 4 and provide support for the gap between them.

[0028] Reference Figure 4 In this embodiment, one end of the diversion rod 11 is provided with a slant rod 21, and one end of the slant rod 21 is provided with a limit block 22. Multiple balls 23 are rotatably fitted inside the slant rod 21. With the slant rod 21, when the goods are diverted, the goods can slide along the slant rod 21, and the balls 23 will play an auxiliary role, allowing the goods to move smoothly to other conveying devices for diversion.

[0029] Reference Figure 4 In this embodiment, a diversion frame 24 corresponding to the fixed frame 8 is installed on the top of the base plate 1. A guide frame 25 is provided on the top of the diversion frame 24, and a groove 26 corresponding to the diversion rod 11 is provided on one side of the guide frame 25. Through the provided guide frame 25, the guide frame 25 can be connected to the diversion rod 11 through the groove 26, so that the guide frame 25 can be connected to other conveying devices to guide the flow of goods.

[0030] Working principle: In use, the drive mechanism 5 is first started to drive multiple conveyor rollers 4 to rotate, so that the multiple conveyor rollers 4 can transport goods. During the transport of goods, the identification mechanism 7 will identify the entry and exit of goods and the codes of goods. When goods that need to be diverted are identified, the first motor 10 will be activated, so that the first motor 10 drives the rotating shaft 9 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft 9 will drive multiple diversion rods 11 to rotate, so that the diversion rods 11 pass through the gaps between the conveyor rollers 4 and pick up the corresponding goods, thus accurately separating the goods. Different warehouses have different multiple conveying channels. The frame 2 can be installed as needed, and then the assembly is carried out using mounting plates 18 of different lengths. The multiple conveyor rollers 4 rotate and cooperate within the multiple mounting plates 18. The gaps between the mounting plates 18 are the reserved positions for the fixing frame 8. The fixing frame 8 will be installed at the reserved positions, so that the diversion rods 11 can smoothly pass through the gaps between the conveyor rollers 4 and pick up the goods. The overall assembly is suitable for different logistics warehouses and can be set up according to the warehouse conditions.

[0031] The foregoing description only illustrates certain exemplary embodiments of the present invention. Undoubtedly, those skilled in the art can modify the described embodiments in various ways without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the above drawings and descriptions are illustrative in nature and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
