[0047] This utility model provides a sorting device, referring to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The sorting device includes a track 1, at least two slider mechanisms 2, a power mechanism 3, a detection mechanism 4, and a control mechanism: at least two slider mechanisms 2 are spaced apart on the track 1 along the track length; the power mechanism 3 is located on the track 1 to drive the at least two slider mechanisms 2 to move along the track length; a detection mechanism 4 is provided between each pair of adjacent slider mechanisms 2, and the detection mechanism 4 is used to detect the distance information between the two adjacent slider mechanisms 2; the control mechanism is connected to the power mechanism 3 and the detection mechanism 4, and is used to control the power mechanism 3 to adjust the distance between the two adjacent slider mechanisms 2 according to the distance information.
[0048] As an example, the sorting device can be applied in many fields, including but not limited to logistics, and can be used for express delivery sorting. The sorting device includes a track 1, at least two slider mechanisms 2, a power mechanism 3, a detection mechanism 4, and a control mechanism. During installation, at least two slider mechanisms 2 are spaced apart along the track length on the track 1. The power mechanism 3 is located on the track 1 and can drive the at least two slider mechanisms 2 to move along the track length, thereby moving at least two sorting carts to complete the sorting work. Compared with existing sorting devices, the increased number of slider mechanisms 2 breaks away from the traditional structure, improving it into a multi-movement slider device. This allows multiple sorting carts to be installed on the same linear sorting device, ensuring sorting capacity and effectively improving sorting efficiency. In addition, a detection mechanism 4 is provided between every two adjacent slider mechanisms 2. The detection mechanism 4 can detect the distance information between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2. The control mechanism is connected to the power mechanism 3 and the detection mechanism 4. With this configuration, the control mechanism can control the power mechanism 3 to adjust the distance between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2 based on the distance information detected by the detection mechanism 4. For example, when the distance between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2 is too small, the control mechanism can control the power mechanism 3 to drive the two adjacent slider mechanisms 2 to move in opposite directions, or keep one slider mechanism 2 stationary and control the power mechanism 3 to drive the adjacent slider mechanism 2 to move, thereby increasing the distance between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2. This provides a safety protection function and avoids the situation where two adjacent sorting carts collide and are damaged due to the distance between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2 being too small, thus improving the safety of the sorting device.
[0049] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The track 1 includes a track body 11, two first support plates 12 extending from a first side of the track body 11 along the track width direction, and two second support plates 13 extending from a second side of the track body 11 along the track width direction; the track body 11 and the two first support plates 12 cooperate to form a first accommodating space, and the track body 11 and the two second support plates 13 cooperate to form a second accommodating space; the opposite sides of each slider mechanism 2 are respectively installed in the first accommodating space and the second accommodating space.
[0050] As an example, the specific structure of track 1 is introduced, including track body 11, two first support plates 12 and two second support plates 13. Track body 11 serves as a reference. The two first support plates 12 are components extending from the first side of track body 11 along the track width direction, and the two second support plates 13 are components extending from the second side of track body 11 along the track width direction. In this configuration, track body 11 and the two first support plates 12 cooperate to form a first accommodating space, and track body 11 and the two second support plates 13 cooperate to form a second accommodating space. The first accommodating space and the second accommodating space serve as mounting positions for mounting slider mechanism 2. Track body 11, two first support plates 12 and two second support plates 13 cooperate to form an H-shaped structure. The opposite sides of each slider mechanism 2 are respectively installed in the first accommodating space and the second accommodating space. The slider mechanism 2 and track 1 are connected at multiple points to ensure the connection stability between slider mechanism 2 and track 1. Moreover, track 1 can provide guidance and limit for the movement of slider mechanism 2 to prevent misalignment and displacement of slider mechanism 2. The track 1 is equipped with a mounting base 5, which allows the sorting device to be installed in a designated position, ensuring the stability and safety of the sorting device.
[0051] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The power mechanism 3 includes at least two power components 31; the at least two power components 31 are respectively arranged at both ends of the track 1, and at least one power component 31 is arranged at each end, or the at least two power components 31 are arranged at the same end of the track 1; each power component 31 is connected to a slider mechanism 2.
[0052] As an example, the power mechanism 3 is described as including at least two power components 31, the number of which is equal to the number of slider mechanisms 2, and the at least two power components 31 have two arrangement forms according to actual needs. The first configuration involves at least two power components 31 arranged at both ends of the track 1, with at least one power component 31 at each end. For example, there are two power components 31, one at one end of the track 1 and one at the other end; or three power components 31, one at one end of the track 1 and two at the other end. The second configuration involves at least two power components 31 arranged at the same end of the track 1. Each power component 31 is connected to a slider mechanism 2. In this configuration, during use, the user drives at least two slider mechanisms 2 to move along the length of the track using at least two power components 31, thereby moving at least two sorting carts to complete the sorting work. Compared with existing sorting devices, the number of slider mechanisms 2 is increased, breaking the traditional structure of the sorting device in this example and improving it into a multi-motion slider device. This allows multiple sorting carts to be installed on the same linear sorting device, ensuring sorting capacity and effectively improving sorting efficiency.
[0053] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In at least two power components 31, each power component 31 includes a support base 311, a motor 312, a transmission shaft 313, a drive wheel 314, an idler wheel 315, and a transmission belt 316. The support base 311 is installed at the end of the track 1, the motor 312 is fixed on the support base 311, one end of the transmission shaft 313 is connected to the output end of the motor 312, the drive wheel 314 is installed on the transmission shaft 313, and the idler wheel 315 is rotatably installed on the transmission shaft 313. Each transmission belt 316 is fitted on the drive wheel 314 of one power component 31 and the idler wheel 315 of the other power component 31, and each transmission belt 316 is connected to a slider mechanism 2.
[0054] As an example, a first structural form of the power assembly 31 is introduced. In at least two power assemblies 31, each of the two corresponding power assemblies 31 (i.e., two power assemblies 31 respectively arranged at both ends of the track 1, and the two power assemblies 31 correspond one-to-one) includes a support base 311, a motor 312, a drive shaft 313, a drive wheel 314, an idler wheel 315, and a drive belt 316. During installation, the support base 311 is installed at the end of the track 1 as a support reference for the other components of the power assembly 31. The motor 312... 12 is fixed on the support base 311. One end of the drive shaft 313 is connected to the output end of the motor 312 via the coupling 317. It has the functions of transmitting torque, compensating for deviations, protecting equipment, and improving the stability and lifespan of the system. Then, the drive wheel 314 is installed on the drive shaft 313, and the idler wheel 315 is rotatably installed on the drive shaft 313. That is to say, the drive wheel 314 and the idler wheel 315 are arranged coaxially. The drive wheel 314 rotates simultaneously with the drive shaft 313, while the idler wheel 315 can idle. This arrangement improves the support rigidity of the power assembly 31. The structural dimensions were reduced. Finally, each transmission belt 316 was fitted onto the drive pulley 314 of one power assembly 31 and the idler pulley 315 of another power assembly 31. The idler pulley 315 idling allows the transmission belts 316 of different power assemblies 31 to move independently. Each transmission belt 316 is connected to a slider mechanism 2. With this configuration, the control mechanism can control the operation of a single motor 312. The motor 312 drives the drive shaft 313 to rotate via a coupling 317. The drive pulley 314 rotates with the drive shaft 313, thereby driving the transmission belt 316 and the other power assembly 316. The idler wheel 315 of track 1 rotates, thereby driving the slider mechanism 2 connected to the transmission belt 316 to move on track 1. For example, when the distance between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2 is too small, one slider mechanism 2 remains stationary, and the control mechanism controls the power mechanism 3 to drive the adjacent slider mechanism 2 to move, thereby increasing the distance between the two adjacent slider mechanisms 2. This provides safety protection and prevents collisions and damage to adjacent sorting carts caused by the small distance between the two slider mechanisms 2, improving the safety of the sorting device. The control mechanism can also control at least two motors 312 to work simultaneously. The at least two motors 312 drive their respective corresponding transmission shafts 313 to rotate, and their respective corresponding drive wheels 314 rotate accordingly, driving at least two transmission belts 316 to rotate, thereby driving the slider mechanisms 2 connected to the at least two transmission belts 316 to move on track 1. This allows the sorting carts on at least two slider mechanisms 2 to move and complete the sorting work.
[0055] In one embodiment, each of the at least two power components 31, which are not correspondingly arranged, includes a support base 311, a motor 312, a drive shaft 313, a drive wheel 314, a driven wheel, and a drive belt 316. The support base 311 is installed at one end of the track 1, the motor 312 is fixed on the support base 311, one end of the drive shaft 313 is connected to the output end of the motor 312, the drive wheel 314 is installed on the drive shaft 313, and the driven wheel is located at the other end of the track 1. Each drive belt 316 is fitted onto the drive wheel 314 and the driven wheel of a power component 31, and each drive belt 316 is connected to a slider mechanism 2.
[0056] As an example, a second structural form of the power assembly 31 is introduced. In at least two power assemblies 31, each power assembly 31 that is not correspondingly arranged (for example, the number of at least two power assemblies 31 is three, one arranged at one end of the track 1 and the other two arranged at the other end of the track 1, one of the two power assemblies 31 arranged at the other end of the track 1 is correspondingly arranged with the power assembly 31 arranged at one end of the track 1, and the other is not correspondingly arranged with the power assembly 31 arranged at one end of the track 1; or for example, at least two power assemblies 31 are arranged at the same end of the track 1, and each power assembly 31 is a non-corresponding power assembly 31) includes a support base 311, a motor 312, a drive shaft 313, a driving wheel 314, a driven wheel, and a drive belt 316. During installation, the support base 311 is installed at the end of the track 1 as a support reference for other components of the power assembly 31. The motor 312 is fixed on the support base 311. One end of the drive shaft 313 is connected to the output end of the motor 312 through a coupling 317, which has the functions of transmitting torque, compensating for deviation, and protecting The equipment enhances system stability and lifespan. The drive wheel 314 is then mounted on the drive shaft 313, with the driven wheel positioned at the other end of the track 1. Finally, each drive belt 316 is fitted onto the drive wheel 314 and driven wheel of a power assembly 31, with each drive belt 316 connected to a slider mechanism 2. This configuration allows the control mechanism to operate a single motor 312, which drives the drive shaft 313 via a coupling 317. The drive wheel 314 rotates with the drive shaft 313, driving the drive belt 316 and driven wheel to rotate, thus moving the slider mechanism 2 connected to the drive belt 316 on the track 1. For example, when the distance between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2 is too small, one slider mechanism 2 remains stationary, while the control mechanism controls the power assembly 3 to move the adjacent slider mechanism 2, increasing the distance between the two adjacent slider mechanisms 2. This provides safety protection, preventing collisions and damage to adjacent sorting carts due to insufficient distance, thus improving the safety of the sorting device. The control mechanism can also control at least two motors 312 to work simultaneously. The at least two motors 312 drive their respective corresponding drive shafts 313 to rotate, and their respective corresponding drive wheels 314 rotate accordingly, thereby driving at least two drive belts 316 to rotate, which in turn drives the slider mechanism 2 connected to the at least two drive belts 316 to move on the track 1, thus enabling the sorting trolleys on the at least two slider mechanisms 2 to move and complete the sorting work.
[0057] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5Each slider mechanism 2 includes two supports 21, a pull plate 22, a connector 23, and a guide wheel set 24; the two supports 21 are arranged opposite each other along the width of the track, and the two ends of the pull plate 22 are respectively connected to the two supports 21; the connector 23 is arranged on the pull plate 22 and is connected to the power mechanism 3; each support 21 is provided with at least one guide wheel set 24, and each guide wheel set 24 is rotatably connected to the track 1.
[0058] As an example, the specific structure of the slider mechanism 2 is introduced. Each slider mechanism 2 includes two supports 21, a pull plate 22, a connector 23, and a guide wheel assembly 24. During installation, the two supports 21 are arranged opposite each other along the width of the track. The two ends of the pull plate 22 are connected to the two supports 21 respectively to form the main structure. The two supports 21 are arranged on the first and second sides of the track 1 to install the slider mechanism 2 on the track 1. Then, the connector 23 is set on the pull plate 22 and connected to the power mechanism 3, specifically to the transmission belt 316 of a power assembly 31. When the transmission belt 316 of the power assembly 31 rotates, it can drive the pull plate 22 and the two supports 21 to move on the track 1 through the connector 23, thereby driving the sorting trolley to move and complete the sorting work. The pull plate 22 is provided with a clearance groove 25 to avoid the transmission belt 316 of another power assembly 31 that is not connected to the connector 23 on the pull plate 22. At least one guide wheel set 24 is provided on each bracket 21, and each guide wheel set 24 is rotatably connected to the track 1. In this way, the guide wheel set 24 on one bracket 21 can be installed in the first accommodating space of the track 1, and the guide wheel set 24 on another bracket 21 can be installed in the second accommodating space of the track 1. The slider mechanism 2 and the track 1 are connected at multiple points to ensure the stability of the connection between the slider mechanism 2 and the track 1. Moreover, the setting of the guide wheel set 24 can not only make the movement of the slider mechanism 2 smoother and more convenient, but also provide guidance and limit for the movement of the slider mechanism 2, and prevent the slider mechanism 2 from being misaligned or offset. In each slider mechanism 2, there are two pull plates 22, two connecting pieces 23, and four guide wheel sets 24. During installation, the two pull plates 22 are spaced apart between the two brackets 21 along the length of the track, and the two connecting pieces 23 are respectively set on the two pull plates 22. In this way, each slider mechanism 2 can be connected to the power mechanism 3 through the two connecting pieces 23, making the connection between the power mechanism 3 and the slider mechanism 2 more reliable. The four guide wheel sets 24 are distributed in a rectangular array, which makes the connection between the slider mechanism 2 and the track 1 more stable and reliable. Moreover, the setting of the four guide wheel sets 24 further makes the movement of the slider mechanism 2 smoother and more convenient, provides guidance and limit for the movement of the slider mechanism 2, and avoids the slider mechanism 2 from being misaligned or offset.
[0059] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 Each guide wheel assembly 24 includes a first guide wheel 241 and a second guide wheel 242; the axial direction of the first guide wheel 241 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the second guide wheel 242; the first guide wheel 241 contacts the track 1 in the track height direction, and the second guide wheel 242 contacts the track 1 in the track width direction.
[0060] As an example, the specific structure of the guide wheel assembly 24 is introduced. Each guide wheel assembly 24 includes a first guide wheel 241 and a second guide wheel 242. The axial direction of the first guide wheel 241 and the axial direction of the second guide wheel 242 are perpendicular to each other. That is, the first guide wheel 241 and the second guide wheel 242 are arranged perpendicular to each other. For example, the first guide wheel 241 contacts the track 1 in the track height direction, and the second guide wheel 242 contacts the track 1 in the track width direction. With this arrangement, the first guide wheel 241 and the second guide wheel 242 are enclosed in the accommodating space of the track 1, so that the entire slider mechanism 2 is constrained on the track 1, ensuring the connection stability between the slider mechanism 2 and the track 1. Moreover, the arrangement of the first guide wheel 241 and the second guide wheel 242 not only makes the movement of the slider mechanism 2 smoother and more convenient, but also provides guidance and limit for the movement of the slider mechanism 2, avoiding misalignment and displacement of the slider mechanism 2.
[0061] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 The connector 23 includes a fixed plate 231, fasteners and a clamping plate 232; the fixed plate 231 is mounted on the pull plate 22, the clamping plate 232 is mounted on the fixed plate 231 by fasteners, and there is a connection space between the clamping plate 232 and the fixed plate 231 for connecting to the power mechanism 3.
[0062] As an example, the specific structure of connector 23 is introduced. Connector 23 includes a fixed plate 231, fasteners, and a clamping plate 232. During installation, the fixed plate 231 is mounted on the pull plate 22, and the clamping plate 232 is mounted on the fixed plate 231 by fasteners. There is a connection space between the clamping plate 232 and the fixed plate 231 for connecting to the power mechanism 3. Specifically, the transmission belt 316 of the power assembly 31 is clamped in the connection space between the clamping plate 232 and the fixed plate 231 to connect the slider mechanism 2 to the power mechanism 3. The distance between the clamping plate 232 and the fixed plate 231 can be adjusted by the fasteners to clamp the transmission belt 316. The tension of the transmission belt 316 can be adjusted by tightening and loosening the fasteners. This realizes the setting of a tensioning structure for adjusting the transmission belt 316 in the slider mechanism 2. The tensioning structure is not set at both ends of the track 1, so it does not restrict the arrangement of the power assembly 31. This allows for the arrangement of more drive wheels 314 and idler wheels 315 according to actual needs.
[0063] In one embodiment, reference is made to Figure 6 The detection mechanism 4 includes a cylinder 41, a baffle 42, a piston rod 43, and a sensor 44. The cylinder 41 is mounted on one of the two adjacent slider mechanisms 2, and the baffle 42 is mounted on the other slider mechanism 2. One end of the piston rod 43 is mounted inside the cylinder 41 through an elastic element, and the other end of the piston rod 43 is used to contact the baffle 42. The sensor 44 is disposed on the piston rod 43 and connected to the control mechanism for detecting the position information of the piston rod 43.
[0064] As an example, the specific structure of the detection mechanism 4 is introduced, including a cylinder 41, a baffle 42, a piston rod 43, and a sensor 44. During installation, the cylinder 41 is installed on one of the two adjacent slider mechanisms 2, and the baffle 42 is installed on the other slider mechanism 2. One end of the piston rod 43 is installed in the cylinder 41 through an elastic element (e.g., a spring), and the other end of the piston rod 43 is used to contact the baffle 42. In this way, under the action of the elastic element, the piston rod 43 will remain in the extended state when there is no other external force. The other end of the piston rod 43 can contact the baffle 42 or not. Sensor 44 is mounted on piston rod 43 and connected to control mechanism. It can detect the position information of piston rod 43. Based on the detected position information, control mechanism determines whether the initial position of piston rod 43 has changed, thereby controlling power mechanism 3 to adjust the distance between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2. For example, if detection mechanism 4 detects that the distance between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2 is too small, control mechanism can control power mechanism 3 to move the two adjacent slider mechanisms 2 in opposite directions, or keep one slider mechanism 2 stationary and control power mechanism 3 to move the adjacent slider mechanism 2, thereby increasing the distance between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2. This provides safety protection and prevents collisions and damage to adjacent sorting carts caused by the distance between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2 being too small, thus improving the safety of the sorting device. As the distance between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2 decreases, the baffle 42 contacts the other end of the piston rod 43. The baffle 42 applies an external force to the piston rod 43, causing it to retract into the cylinder 41 and compress the elastic element. The elastic force of the elastic element acts as a buffer, preventing collisions between adjacent slider mechanisms 2. In this example, the detection mechanism 4 is a contact detection type, featuring anti-collision functionality, low cost, and high safety and reliability.
[0065] This utility model provides a seeding wall, including a sorting device.
[0066] As an example, the seeding wall includes a sorting device, which includes a track 1, at least two slider mechanisms 2, a power mechanism 3, a detection mechanism 4, and a control mechanism. During installation, at least two slider mechanisms 2 are spaced apart on the track 1 along the track length. The power mechanism 3 is located on the track 1 and can drive at least two slider mechanisms 2 to move along the track length, thereby enabling at least two sorting carts to move and complete the sorting work. Compared with existing sorting devices, the number of slider mechanisms 2 is increased, making the sorting device in this example break away from the traditional structure and improve it into a multi-movement slider device. This allows multiple sorting carts to be installed on the same linear sorting device, ensuring sorting capacity and effectively improving sorting efficiency. In addition, a detection mechanism 4 is provided between every two adjacent slider mechanisms 2. The detection mechanism 4 can detect the distance information between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2. The control mechanism is connected to the power mechanism 3 and the detection mechanism 4. With this configuration, the control mechanism can control the power mechanism 3 to adjust the distance between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2 based on the distance information detected by the detection mechanism 4. For example, when the distance between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2 is too small, the control mechanism can control the power mechanism 3 to drive the two adjacent slider mechanisms 2 to move in opposite directions, or keep one slider mechanism 2 stationary and control the power mechanism 3 to drive the adjacent slider mechanism 2 to move, thereby increasing the distance between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2. This provides a safety protection function and avoids the situation where two adjacent sorting carts collide and are damaged due to the distance between two adjacent slider mechanisms 2 being too small, thus improving the safety of the sorting device.
