[0030] Example 1
[0031] This disclosure provides a basket-discharging device 100, such as... Figures 1-5As shown, the basket dispensing device 100 includes a basket dispensing mechanism 1 and multiple protective components 2. The basket dispensing mechanism 1 includes a basket dispensing body 10 and a lifting component 12. The basket dispensing body 10 has multiple basket dispensing openings 11. The lifting component 12 is disposed on the basket dispensing body 10 and can carry multiple luggage baskets (not shown in the figure) and transport the multiple luggage baskets to the multiple basket dispensing openings 11, so that the multiple luggage baskets are output from the multiple basket dispensing openings 11 respectively. The multiple protective components 2 are disposed on the basket dispensing body 10 and are correspondingly disposed on the multiple basket dispensing openings 11. The protective components 2 include a protective drive source 21 and a protective member 22. The protective drive source 21 can drive the protective member 22 to move toward or away from the basket dispensing opening 11, so that the protective member 22 selectively blocks the basket dispensing opening 11.
[0032] For example, there are two basket outlets 11 and two protective components 2. The two basket outlets 11 are set on both sides of the basket outlet body 10 along the third direction to achieve the double-sided basket outlet effect and improve the basket outlet efficiency. The two protective components 2 can block the two basket outlets 11 respectively.
[0033] For example, the basket dispensing mechanism 1 has at least one plane, which is parallel to the horizontal plane. A second direction is perpendicular to the plane. The first direction and the third direction are two mutually perpendicular directions within the plane, that is, the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are mutually perpendicular to each other. The first direction is identified by D1, the second direction by D2, and the third direction by D3. For ease of understanding, the first direction can also be referred to as the width direction of the basket dispensing mechanism 1, the second direction as the height direction of the basket dispensing mechanism 1, and the third direction as the length direction of the basket dispensing mechanism 1.
[0034] For example, the lifting assembly 12 may be an elevator or other device with lifting function. The lifting assembly 12 can transport the luggage basket along the second direction to multiple outlets 11 and output the multiple luggage baskets from the multiple outlets 11 respectively.
[0035] For example, the protective drive source 21 may be a cylinder, a motor, etc. For instance, the cylinder can directly drive the protective component 22 to move up and down in the second direction; or, the motor can be indirectly connected to the protective component 22 through other transmission components, so that the protective component 22 can block the outlet 11.
[0036] Compared to the single-sided basket ejection method, the basket ejection device 100 provided in this embodiment of the present disclosure has a lifting component 12 that can drive multiple luggage baskets to be output from multiple basket ejection ports 11, thereby improving the basket ejection efficiency. Multiple protective components 2 and multiple basket ejection ports 11 are matched accordingly. The protective drive source 21 can drive the protective component 22 to move away from the basket ejection port 11. The protective component 22 does not block the basket ejection port 11, and the basket ejection port 11 is in an open state to open the basket ejection port 11, so that the luggage basket can be output from the basket ejection port 11. The protective drive source 21 can also drive the protective component 22 to move towards the basket ejection port 11. The protective component 22 blocks the basket ejection port 11, and the basket ejection port 11 is in a closed state to close the basket ejection port 11, thereby preventing passengers' fingers or personal belongings from being caught in the basket ejection mechanism 1.
[0037] However, if one of the basket outlets 11 is open, the other basket outlets 11 will also be open, which will simultaneously expose the internal moving parts of the basket dispensing mechanism 1, such as the lifting component 12. When passengers reach out to take the basket from the basket outlet 11, it is very easy for their hands to be pinched, or small items to be rolled into the basket dispensing mechanism 1, affecting the safety of use.
[0038] To solve this problem, the basket-discharging device 100 provided in this embodiment of the present disclosure, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the protective drive source 21 of one of the multiple protective components 2 can drive the protective component 22 to move away from one of the basket outlets 11, so that one of the basket outlets 11 is in an open state, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the protective drive source 21 of the remaining protective components 2 can drive the protective component 22 to move toward the outlet 11, so that the remaining outlets 11 are in a closed state.
[0039] The basket dispensing device 100 provided in this embodiment includes multiple protective components 2 and multiple basket dispensing openings 11, with the protective elements 22 of the multiple protective components 2 capable of independently sealing multiple basket dispensing openings 11. When one basket dispensing opening 11 needs to be opened for operation, the remaining basket dispensing openings 11, as non-operational sides, are always sealed by the protective elements 22. Passengers cannot extend their hands or small personal items into the basket dispensing mechanism 1 through the empty basket dispensing openings 11, reducing personal safety hazards and improving the safety of security checks. At the same time, only a single basket dispensing opening 11 can dispense a basket at a time; multiple basket dispensing openings 11 will not simultaneously dispense multiple luggage baskets, avoiding collisions and jams caused by multiple luggage baskets dispensing simultaneously inside the basket dispensing mechanism 1, reducing cross-interference between multiple luggage baskets, and improving the continuity and smoothness of basket dispensing.
[0040] For example, such as Figures 1-2As shown, the basket dispensing device 100 also includes a controller (not shown) and multiple detection elements 3, which are correspondingly arranged with multiple basket dispensing openings 11. The controller is electrically connected to the multiple detection elements 3 and the protective drive source 21 of the multiple protective components 2; wherein, when one of the multiple detection elements 3 detects a luggage basket at the corresponding basket dispensing opening 11, the controller controls the protective drive source 21 of one of them to drive the protective component 22 to move away from one of the basket dispensing openings 11.
[0041] For example, the detection element 3 can be an infrared sensor or a grating, etc. The protective element 22 is parallel to the grating and offset from it by a certain distance. The protective element 22 will not block the light path of the grating during the opening and closing movement. The grating can continuously and stably collect the obstruction signal near the basket opening 11, avoiding signal loss, misjudgment and missed detection.
[0042] When the lifting assembly 12 reaches the position corresponding to the exit opening 11, after the detection element 3 detects the luggage basket at the corresponding exit opening 11, the detection element 3 transmits this information to the controller. The controller then controls the corresponding protective drive source 21 to operate, which opens the protective element 22, allowing the luggage basket to exit from the exit opening 11. At the same time, the controller controls other protective drive sources 21 to close, keeping other protective elements 22 in a state of blocking the exit opening 11, thus preventing the protective elements 22 from accidentally opening and causing the risk of pinching a passenger's hand when they reach out.
[0043] By sharing a single controller, electrical linkage is achieved. When performing the basket dispensing operation, only the protective drive source 21 on the working side is triggered to move the protective component 22 and open the basket dispensing port 11. However, the protective components 22 on the other non-working sides remain in a blocked state, preventing multiple basket dispensing ports 11 from opening simultaneously.
[0044] This design allows for real-time monitoring of the movement range of the lifting component 12, preventing passengers from being pinched by it. It also enables coordinated control of multiple protective components 22, allowing one side of the basket exit 11 to open while the others remain closed, reducing the risk of fingers being pinched during opening and closing. This method ensures that the basket exit actions are staggered and do not conflict, alternating to complete the process and improving overall efficiency, making it suitable for high-traffic security check scenarios at train stations and airports.
[0045] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2As shown, the lifting assembly 12 includes a lifting drive source 121, a lifting drive wheel 122, a lifting reversing wheel 123, a lifting transmission belt 124, and a lifting conveyor 125. The lifting drive source 121 is disposed on the basket discharge body 10, and the output end of the lifting drive source 121 is connected to the lifting drive wheel 122. The lifting transmission belt 124 is wound around the lifting drive wheel 122 and the lifting reversing wheel 123, and is connected to the lifting conveyor 125. The lifting conveyor 125 is used to carry and transport the luggage basket. The lifting drive source 121 can drive the lifting drive wheel 122 to rotate, drive the lifting transmission belt 124 to move and the lifting reversing wheel 123 to rotate, and drive the lifting conveyor 125 and the luggage basket to move up and down through the lifting transmission belt 124.
[0046] For example, the lifting drive source 121 can be a motor, the lifting drive wheel 122 and the lifting reversing wheel 123 support the lifting transmission belt 124, and the lifting transmission belt 124 drives the lifting conveyor 125 to move, so that the lifting conveyor 125 is subjected to uniform force during the lifting process, reducing the risk of the luggage basket tilting in the lifting conveyor 125 and ensuring the positional stability of the luggage basket during the unloading process.
[0047] In some other embodiments, the lifting drive source 121 may be a cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, etc. The output end of the lifting drive source 121 is connected to the lifting conveyor 125. The lifting drive source 121 directly drives the lifting conveyor 125 to move up and down in the second direction. This embodiment does not limit the specific structure of the lifting component 12. As long as the luggage basket can move up and down in the second direction and exit from the basket outlet 11, it is within the protection scope of this disclosure.
[0048] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the lifting and conveying unit 125 includes a basket ejection frame 1251, a basket ejection drive roller 1252, a basket ejection driven roller 1253, and a basket ejection drive source 1254. The basket ejection frame 1251 is connected to the lifting transmission belt 124; the basket ejection drive roller 1252 is rotatably connected to the basket ejection frame 1251; the basket ejection driven roller 1253 is rotatably connected to the basket ejection frame 1251; the basket ejection drive source 1254 is disposed on the basket ejection frame 1251, and the basket ejection drive source 1254 can drive the basket ejection drive roller 1252 to rotate. The basket ejection drive roller 1252 carries the luggage basket and can drive the luggage basket to move and the basket ejection driven roller 1253 to rotate.
[0049] For example, the basket delivery drive source 1254 can be a motor. After the entire lifting and conveying unit 125 is lifted into position by the lifting transmission belt 124, the basket delivery drive source 1254 is started independently. The basket delivery drive roller 1252 drives the basket delivery driven roller 1253 to operate synchronously, so as to output the luggage basket located on the basket delivery drive roller 1252 and the basket delivery driven roller 1253 toward the basket delivery port 11, realizing the automatic delivery of luggage baskets after lifting and lowering into position.
[0050] With this setup, the lifting and lowering actions and the basket conveying actions are independent of each other, eliminating the need for manual assistance in pushing the luggage baskets, thus increasing the automation level of the basket conveying device 100 and improving conveying efficiency.
[0051] In one embodiment, such as Figures 3-5 As shown, the protective assembly 2 also includes a drive wheel 24, a driven wheel 25 and a conveyor belt 26. The output end of the protective drive source 21 is connected to the drive wheel 24. The drive wheel 24 and the driven wheel 25 are arranged along the second direction. The conveyor belt 26 is wound around the drive wheel 24 and the driven wheel 25. The protective member 22 is connected to the conveyor belt 26.
[0052] For example, the conveyor belt 26 can be a synchronous belt or chain, etc., and the protective drive source 21 can be a rotary motor. The protective drive source 21 drives the drive wheel 24 to rotate, thereby moving the conveyor belt 26 and rotating the driven wheel 25. Driven by the conveyor belt 26, the protective component 22 reciprocates inside the basket body 10. Figure 3 As shown, when the protective component 22 moves to a position offset from the outlet 11, the protective component 22 does not block the outlet 11, and at this time the outlet 11 is in the open state. Figure 4 As shown, when the protective component 22 moves to the position corresponding to the basket outlet 11, the protective component 22 blocks the basket outlet 11, and the basket outlet 11 is in a closed state at this time.
[0053] With this configuration, the conveyor belt 26 is wound around the drive wheel 24 and the driven wheel 25. The protective component 22 is subjected to uniform force during transmission. The protective component 22 moves back and forth without jamming or shifting, ensuring that the protective component 22 can completely fit and seal the basket opening 11, thereby improving the sealing and protection effect.
[0054] In one embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, there are two conveyor belts 26. The central axis of the drive wheel 24 extends along the first direction. The two conveyor belts 26 are arranged along the first direction and wrapped around the drive wheel 24. The protective member 22 is disposed between the two conveyor belts 26.
[0055] For example, the two conveyor belts 26 jointly carry the protective component 22 and synchronously pull the protective component 22 to move, thereby improving the uniformity of the force on the protective component 22, reducing the occurrence of deviation or wrinkling of the protective component 22 during movement, ensuring that the protective component 22 can fit and seal the basket opening 11, reducing the risk of pinching hands or small items getting stuck in the gap, and improving the protective sealing and protective stability.
[0056] With this configuration, the drive wheel 24 is relatively long along the first direction. The drive wheel 24 synchronously drives the two conveyor belts 26, transmitting the power output from the protective drive source 21 to each conveyor belt 26. This eliminates the need for separate protective drive sources 21 for each conveyor belt 26, simplifying the power components and reducing the number of parts and assembly costs. Simultaneously, the two conveyor belts 26 share the same drive wheel 24, achieving synchronous transmission and ensuring consistent operating speeds, thus improving the uniformity of force distribution on the protective component 22.
[0057] In one embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, there are two driven wheels 25, which are arranged along the first direction, and two conveyor belts 26 are respectively wound around the two driven wheels 25.
[0058] For example, the two driven wheels 25 and the two conveyor belts 26 are configured separately, so that the transmission circuits of the two conveyor belts 26 are independent of each other. The tension of each individual conveyor belt 26 can be adjusted to eliminate slippage of the conveyor belt 26, ensure the synchronicity of the movement of the two conveyor belts 26, and prevent the protective member 22 from tilting or wrinkling due to asynchronous displacement on both sides of the first direction.
[0059] In another embodiment, there is one driven wheel 25, the central axis of which extends along a first direction, and two conveyor belts 26 are wound around the driven wheel 25.
[0060] For example, the driving wheel 24 and the driven wheel 25 synchronously carry the two conveyor belts 26. The transmission paths of the two conveyor belts 26 are synchronized, which improves the uniformity of the protective component 22 during the movement process, reduces tilting and wrinkling, and enables the protective component 22 to completely fit and seal the basket opening 11, reducing safety hazards such as pinching hands in gaps and small items getting caught.
[0061] With this configuration, the transmission of the two conveyor belts 26 can be completed using only one driving wheel 24 and one driven wheel 25, reducing the number of parts, simplifying the transmission structure, reducing processing and assembly costs, and reducing the internal space occupied by transmission components, thus meeting the need for a compact layout of the security inspection machine.
[0062] In one embodiment, the protective element 22 is made of a flexible material.
[0063] For example, the protective component 22 is made of flexible fabric. The protective component 22 can also be called a movable safety curtain. The protective component 22 with a certain degree of flexibility can completely fit the contour of the conveyor belt 26 and move with the movement of the conveyor belt 26. There is no need to reserve a large lifting space, which reduces the space occupied by the protective component 2 in the internal space of the basket discharge mechanism 1 and is conducive to the requirements of miniaturization and compact layout.
[0064] This disclosure also provides a conveying device, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the conveying equipment includes a second conveying device 300, the aforementioned basket-discharging device 100, and a plurality of first conveying devices 200. The plurality of first conveying devices 200 are located on both sides of the basket-discharging device 100 along a third direction and are correspondingly arranged with a plurality of basket-discharging ports 11. The second conveying device 300 is located on one side of the first conveying device 200 along a first direction. The plurality of first conveying devices 200 are configured to receive luggage baskets output from the plurality of basket-discharging ports 11 and convey them along the first direction to the second conveying device 300. The second conveying device 300 is capable of receiving luggage baskets and conveying them along a third direction.
[0065] The conveying equipment provided in this embodiment includes multiple first conveying devices 200 corresponding to multiple basket outlets 11. The multiple first conveying devices 200 can receive multiple luggage baskets output from the multiple basket outlets 11, realizing the process of basket output and receiving from both sides. Passengers do not need to manually move the luggage baskets, reducing the risk of hand pinching or bumping caused by manual pushing of baskets, and improving the safety of security check passage.
[0066] Multiple first conveying devices 200 convey multiple luggage baskets along a first direction. A second conveying device 300 can receive multiple luggage baskets output by multiple first conveying devices 200 and output them along a third direction to form a reversing conveying path. This allows luggage baskets from both sides to be uniformly collected by the second conveying device 300, realizing automated flow of bidirectional basket output and unidirectional flow, avoiding luggage basket accumulation and cross-interference, and improving luggage basket transfer efficiency.
[0067] In one embodiment, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first conveying device 200 includes a first frame 201, a power roller 202, a driven roller 203, and a first conveying drive source 204. The power roller 202 is rotatably mounted on the first frame 201, and the driven roller 203 is rotatably mounted on the first frame 201. The output end of the first conveying drive source 204 is connected to the power roller 202, and the first conveying drive source 204 can drive the power roller 202 to rotate. The power roller 202 carries the luggage basket and drives the luggage basket to move and the driven roller 203 to rotate.
[0068] For example, the first conveying drive source 204 can be a conveying motor. The first conveying drive source 204 drives the power roller 202 to rotate. The luggage basket is directly carried and conveyed by the friction force on the surface of the power roller 202. The structure is simple, with few transmission links and fast conveying response speed. The luggage basket is immediately started to be transferred after it is output from the outlet 11, avoiding the accumulation and stagnation of luggage baskets at the outlet 11.
[0069] The power roller 202 actively outputs power, and the driven roller 203 rotates synchronously with the luggage basket. The power roller 202 and multiple driven rollers 203 jointly support the bottom of the luggage basket, with even support points, reducing the risk of the luggage basket tipping over and improving the stability of the luggage basket during the transportation process.
[0070] It is understood that the first conveying device 200 can also be other wheel-type mechanisms with different driving forces, such as Mecanum wheels or swing wheels, to add additional connecting structures in a third direction when the basket is being unloaded. The first conveying device 200 can also be a telescopic push rod mechanism, for example, the push rod retracts and is hidden inside the basket unloading body 10 when the basket is being unloaded, and extends to push the basket after the passenger has finished organizing their luggage.
[0071] It is understandable that the second conveying device 300 and the first conveying device 200 have similar structures but indicate different conveying directions, so they will not be described in detail here.
[0072] In one embodiment, such as Figure 6 As shown, the conveying equipment also includes a transfer machine 400, which is configured to receive luggage baskets output from the first conveying device 200 and convey them to the second conveying device 300.
[0073] For example, the transfer machine 400 is located between the first conveying device 200 and the second conveying device 300, or the transfer machine 400 and the first conveying device 200 are correspondingly arranged. For example, the transfer machine 400 is a lifting mechanism that transfers luggage baskets; or the transfer machine 400 and the second conveying device 300 are correspondingly arranged.
[0074] For example, the transfer method of the transfer machine 400 can be roller conveying, push rod pushing, etc., but all mechanical parts of the transfer machine 400 must be designed with safety protection to avoid the risk of pinching and injuring passengers.
[0075] By adding a transfer machine 400 between the first conveyor 200 and the second conveyor 300, the transfer machine 400 serves as a transfer and connection mechanism. It can smoothly receive the luggage baskets output by the first conveyor 200 and transfer them to the second conveyor 300. This is used to fill the gap between the first conveyor 200 and the second conveyor 300, achieve seamless connection, avoid the risk of luggage baskets getting stuck in the conveyor connection gap, and ensure the continuity and smoothness of the luggage baskets during the transfer process.
[0076] With this configuration, the transfer machine 400 can match the layout of the first conveyor 200 conveying baskets along the first direction and the second conveyor 300 conveying baskets along the third direction, realizing the reversal and automated transfer of luggage baskets. This eliminates the need for manual transfer, reduces safety hazards such as bumps and pinches caused by passengers manually handling baskets, and improves the level of security check automation.
[0077] The conveying equipment provided in this embodiment ensures the safety of passengers and goods by synchronously controlling multiple protective components 22. The transfer machine 400 reduces manual intervention. The first conveying device 200, the second conveying device 300, the transfer machine 400, and the crate unloading device 100 together constitute a complete dual-sided crate unloading automated system, improving crate unloading efficiency and passenger experience.
[0078] Example 2
[0079] This embodiment is similar to Embodiment 1, except that the details of the protective component 2 are different.
[0080] The basket-discharging device 100 provided in this embodiment of the present disclosure, such as Figures 7-8 As shown, the protective component 2 also includes a transmission component 23. The protective component 22 is provided with a slide groove 221, which extends along the first direction. One end of the transmission component 23 is rotatably connected to the output end of the protective drive source 21, and the other end is slidably engaged with the slide groove 221. The protective drive source 21 drives the protective component 22 to move up and down along the second direction through the transmission component 23.
[0081] For example, the protective drive source 21 can be a rotary motor. The protective drive source 21 transmits rotational power to the protective member 22 through the transmission member 23. The rotational force can be decomposed into a first force F1 along the first direction and a second force F2 along the second direction. Under the action of the first force F1, the transmission member 23 slides in conjunction with the slide groove 221 extending along the first direction. Under the action of the second force F2, the protective member 22 moves up and down along the second direction. The transmission process is simple and reliable, with few parts, which facilitates processing and assembly and reduces manufacturing costs.
[0082] In one embodiment, the protective component 2 further includes a guide member 27, which has a guide hole 271. The protective component 22 has a positioning post 222 on the side facing the guide member 27. The positioning post 222 extends along the second direction and passes through the guide hole 271 and slides in cooperation with the guide hole 271.
[0083] The positioning pin 222 and the guide hole 271 slide together to form a limiting guide structure, which is used to constrain the protective part 22 to move up and down in the second direction, so as to counteract the lateral force generated by the transmission part 23 on the protective part 22, avoid the protective part 22 from deviating during the lifting process, ensure the accuracy of the protective part 22 in blocking the basket opening 11, and prevent passengers' fingers and small items from entering the basket opening mechanism 1 through the gap, thus causing safety risks.
[0084] In one embodiment, the protective element 22 is a baffle.
[0085] Since the protective component 22 only moves up and down in the second direction, its movement trajectory is simple and regular. The rigid structure of the baffle can meet the opening and closing requirements of the basket opening 11, avoiding the risk of wrinkles and sagging that are common with flexible protective components 22. At the same time, the protective component 22 maintains a flat shape throughout its entire lifting and lowering process, completely covering the basket opening 11, thus improving the stability and reliability of protection and sealing.
