[0002] In the field of material handling and sorting, the swing wheel diverter, as a key piece of equipment for material redirection and diversion, is widely used in logistics warehousing, express delivery sorting, and production lines. Its core function is to guide materials on the conveyor line to different branch channels according to preset paths through multiple adjustable roller assemblies, thereby achieving automated sorting and diversion operations.

[0003] With the increasing demand for sorting efficiency, traditional sorting machines cannot meet the high efficiency requirements. As the frequency of use increases, the round belts or multi-ribbed belts used in traditional sorting machines will gradually stretch, eventually becoming unusable and difficult to replace. Furthermore, the elastic deformation and stretching of round belts or multi-ribbed belts during transmission will cause transmission delays, which is not conducive to rapid response and sorting. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the problem that the round belt or multi-wedge belt used in the existing diverter will gradually stretch, eventually becoming unusable and troublesome to replace, and that the round belt or multi-wedge belt will cause transmission delay due to elastic deformation stretching during transmission, which is not conducive to rapid response and sorting. Thus, a swing wheel diverter is provided.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a balance wheel diverter, comprising:

[0006] frame;

[0007] A roller mechanism includes: a bearing housing, a bracket, and rollers. There are multiple bearing housings and they are disposed on a frame. The bracket is rotatably connected to the frame through the bearing housings. The rollers are rotatably connected to the bracket. The number of roller mechanisms is at least two sets.

[0008] A drive mechanism includes a drive element and a swing frame connected to the output end of the drive element. The number of the drive element and the swing frame corresponds to the number of roller mechanisms. Each swing frame is connected to the same side of the support in each set of roller mechanisms. The swing frame has a clearance groove for the bearing seat to pass through.

[0009] In one embodiment of this utility model, the output end of the driving component is connected to an eccentric disk, the eccentric disk is fixedly mounted with a driving rod, the end of the driving rod is connected to a guide wheel, and the swing frame is provided with a sliding groove adapted to the guide wheel.

[0010] In one embodiment of this utility model, the length of the groove is greater than the diameter of the guide wheel, and the guide wheel is movably connected to the inner wall of the groove.

[0011] In one embodiment of the present invention, the bracket includes a first support frame and a second support frame, the first support frame and the second support frame are connected together, the roller is rotatably connected to the first support frame, the second support frame is connected to the swing frame by bolts, and the swing frame has through holes adapted to the bolts.

[0012] In one embodiment of the present invention, a cover plate is installed at the end of the first support frame and the second support frame, the cover plate has a clearance hole, and the roller passes through the clearance hole and protrudes from the end face of the cover plate.

[0018] The above-mentioned technical solution of this utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0019] This utility model discloses a swing wheel diverter, which adopts a direct rigid transmission structure from the drive component, swing frame to the support. The output end of the drive component is movably connected to the swing frame, and the swing frame is rigidly connected to the support of the roller mechanism.

[0028] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, so that those skilled in the art can better understand and implement the present invention. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0029] Example

[0030] Reference Figures 1-6 As shown, the present invention provides a balance wheel diverter, comprising:

[0031] Rack 1;

[0032] The roller 4 mechanism includes: bearing seat 8, bracket and roller 4. There are multiple bearing seats 8 and they are disposed on the frame 1. The bracket is rotatably connected to the frame 1 through the bearing seats 8. The roller 4 is rotatably connected to the bracket. The number of roller 4 mechanisms is at least two sets.

[0033] The driving mechanism includes a driving element 5 and a swing frame 10 connected to the output end of the driving element 5. The number of the driving element 5 and the swing frame 10 corresponds to the roller 4 mechanism. Each swing frame 10 is connected to the same side of the bracket in each set of roller 4 mechanisms. The swing frame 10 has a clearance groove 17 for the bearing seat 8 to pass through.

[0034] The present invention discloses a pendulum diverter, comprising multiple bearing seats 8 fixedly mounted on a frame 1. A support is rotatably connected to the frame 1 via the bearing seats 8. Specifically, the support has matching shaft holes corresponding to the positions of the bearing seats 8, and bearings are installed inside the bearing seats 8. The shaft of the support passes through the inner ring of the bearing, allowing the support to rotate flexibly around the bearing seats 8. Rollers 4 are rotatably connected to the support. Typically, roller 4 shafts are mounted on the support, and rollers 4 are sleeved on the roller 4 shafts via bearings to ensure smooth rotation of the rollers 4 and reduce frictional resistance during material conveying. The roller 4 mechanism is configured with at least two sets to achieve diverting operations for materials at different positions. The drive mechanism provides power for the swing of the roller 4 mechanism, including the drive component 5 and the swing frame 10. The number of drive components 5 and swing frames 10 corresponds to the number of roller 4 mechanisms, ensuring that each group of roller 4 mechanisms can obtain independent and synchronous power drive. Each swing frame 10 is connected to the same side of the support in the corresponding group of roller 4 mechanisms, ensuring that the driving force of the swing frame 10 on the support is consistent. The swing frame 10 is provided with a clearance groove 17. The opening position of the clearance groove 17 corresponds to the setting position of the bearing seat 8. Its size and shape are adapted to the bearing seat 8. The swing frame 10 passes through the bearing seat 8 during the swing process to avoid interference with the bearing seat 8.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 6 As shown, when the drive mechanism is activated, the drive component 5 outputs power and transmits it to the swing frame 10. Since the swing frame 10 is connected to the support of the roller 4 mechanism, the driving force drives the swing frame 10 to swing. During this process, the clearance groove 17 on the swing frame 10 moves with the swing frame 10. Because the clearance groove 17 is compatible with the bearing seat 8, the swing frame 10 can bypass the bearing seat 8 without collision. The swing of the swing frame 10 drives the support to reciprocate around the axis of the bearing seat 8. The rotation of the support further drives the roller 4 on it to swing synchronously. The axis of the roller 4 is located on the horizontal plane. When the material is conveyed to the top of the roller 4 mechanism, the swing of the roller 4 will generate a lateral guiding force on the material, causing the material to deviate from the original conveying path and realize the diversion of the material. If multiple sets of roller 4 mechanisms are set, multiple sets of roller 4 mechanisms can swing under the synchronous drive of the drive mechanism, for example, the material can be diverted to different conveying channels.

[0036] Reference Figure 6As shown, the output end of the drive component 5 is connected to an eccentric disk 16, the eccentric disk 16 is fixedly mounted with a drive rod 15, the end of the drive rod 15 is connected to a guide wheel 14, and the swing frame 10 is provided with a groove 13 adapted to the guide wheel 14. When the drive unit 5 is started, the output shaft of the drive unit 5 drives the eccentric disk 16 to rotate around its central axis. Since the drive rod 15 is eccentrically mounted on the eccentric disk 16, the drive rod 15 will make a circular motion with the rotation of the eccentric disk 16. The guide wheel 14 at the end of the drive rod 15 will also make a circular motion synchronously. During the circular motion of the guide wheel 14, the guide wheel 14 is always in the slide groove 13 of the swing frame 10. Due to the restriction of the slide groove 13, the guide wheel 14 cannot complete a complete circular motion with the drive rod 15, but slides back and forth in the slide groove 13. When the guide wheel 14 slides in the slide groove 13, it will generate a pushing or pulling force on the inner wall of the slide groove 13. Since the slide groove 13 is opened on the swing frame 10, this force will drive the swing frame 10 to make a swinging motion. The reciprocating swing of the swing frame 10 will then drive the support of the roller 4 mechanism connected to it to reciprocate and rotate, so as to realize the swing of the roller 4 to complete the material diversion operation.

[0037] The length of the chute 13 is greater than the diameter of the guide wheel 14, and the guide wheel 14 is movably connected to the inner wall of the chute 13. During the operation of the drive mechanism, the drive component 5 drives the eccentric disk 16 to rotate, and the drive rod 15 moves in a circular motion with the eccentric disk 16. The guide wheel 14 attempts to move along the circular trajectory under the drive of the drive rod 15, but due to the constraint of the chute 13, the guide wheel 14 can only slide back and forth within the chute 13 along its length. Since the length of the chute 13 is greater than the diameter of the guide wheel 14, the sufficient length of the chute 13 ensures that the guide wheel 14 can complete the required sliding stroke during the sliding process, thereby ensuring that the swing frame 10 can obtain a sufficient swing angle to meet the material diversion angle requirements of the roller 4 mechanism. The rotational characteristics of the guide wheel 14 convert the sliding friction between the guide wheel 14 and the inner wall of the chute 13 into rolling friction, further reducing frictional resistance.

[0038] Reference Figure 5As shown, the bracket includes a first support frame 11 and a second support frame 12, which are connected together. The roller 4 is rotatably connected to the first support frame 11, and the second support frame 12 is connected to the swing frame 10 by bolts. The swing frame 10 has through holes adapted to fit the bolts. The drive mechanism transmits power to the second support frame 12 through the swing frame 10: the swing frame 10 reciprocates under the drive of the drive component 5. Since the second support frame 12 and the swing frame 10 are firmly connected by bolts, the swing of the swing frame 10 will directly drive the second support frame 12 to swing synchronously. The swing of the second support frame 12 will drive the first support frame 11 to rotate synchronously around the axis of the bearing seat 8. The roller 4 installed on the first support frame 11 swings synchronously with the rotation of the first support frame 11. At the same time, the roller 4 rotates around its own axis under the action of the material or its own drive. When the material is conveyed above the roller 4, the rotation of the roller 4 provides conveying power for the material, and the swing of the roller 4 provides lateral guiding force for the material.

[0039] Cover plates 3 are installed at the ends of the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12. The cover plates 3 have clearance holes 19, and the rollers 4 protrude from the end face of the cover plates 3 through the clearance holes 19. During the operation of the swing wheel separator, the cover plates 3 cover the ends of the first support frame 11 and the second support frame 12, preventing dust, powder, debris and other impurities from the external environment from entering the interior of the support. Under the protection of the cover plates 3, the rotating parts such as bearings and roller shafts inside the support can avoid contact with impurities, reduce the wear of the rotating parts by impurities, and prevent rotation jamming caused by the accumulation of impurities. At the same time, the cover plates 3 can also prevent operators from accidentally contacting the moving parts inside the support during the operation of the equipment, thus improving the operational safety of the equipment. On the other hand, the roller 4 passes through the clearance hole 19 on the cover plate 3 and protrudes from the end face of the cover plate 3. When the material is conveyed to the top of the cover plate 3, the roller 4 protruding from the end face can directly contact the material. The rotation of the roller 4 drives the material forward, and the swing of the roller 4 pushes the material to flow laterally. The clearance hole 19 ensures that the movement of the roller 4 is not obstructed by the cover plate 3, and the gap between the cover plate 3 and the roller 4 further ensures the smooth rotation of the roller 4 and avoids friction interference. If maintenance or replacement of the internal components of the bracket is required, the cover plate 3 can be removed and then reinstalled after the operation is completed, making maintenance convenient.

[0040] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the frame 1 is provided with a protective cover 2, the protective cover 2 has multiple rotating holes, the size of the cover plate 3 is adapted to the rotating holes and is located inside the rotating holes, and the end face of the cover plate 3 is flush with the end face of the protective cover 2.

[0041] The protective cover 2 is installed on the frame 1 and is made of metal sheet or high-strength plastic sheet. The structural shape of the protective cover 2 needs to be designed according to the distribution of the internal components of the frame 1 to ensure that it can completely cover the key components such as the drive mechanism and the connection part of the roller 4 mechanism inside the frame 1, forming a closed or semi-closed protective space. The protective cover 2 can be connected to the frame 1 by bolts or hinges. If a hinge is used, the protective cover 2 can be designed as an openable structure to facilitate the maintenance and repair of the internal components in the future. The surface of the protective cover 2 can be treated with anti-corrosion, such as spraying anti-rust paint or anti-corrosion coating, to improve its corrosion resistance and adapt to harsh working environments such as humid and dusty environments. The protective cover 2 has multiple rotating holes, the number of which corresponds one-to-one with the number of roller 4 mechanisms. The location of the rotating holes corresponds to the installation position of the roller 4 mechanisms on the frame 1. The shape of the rotating holes is adapted to the shape of the cover plate 3, usually circular or polygonal with the same shape as the cover plate 3. The size of the rotating holes needs to be slightly larger than the size of the cover plate 3 to ensure that the cover plate 3 can be smoothly installed in the rotating holes, while providing sufficient space for the cover plate 3 to rotate with the bracket, and avoiding friction between the cover plate 3 and the edge of the rotating holes during rotation. After the cover plate 3 is installed in the rotating holes, its end face is flush with the end face of the protective cover 2. This flush design can prevent protrusions or depressions on the surface of the cover plate 3 or the protective cover 2, and prevent the material from being blocked by the protrusions or stuck in the depressions during material conveying, ensuring smooth material conveying.

[0042] The roller 4 has anti-slip grooves 13 axially formed on its circumferential surface. During the operation of the swing wheel diverter, the roller 4 rotates around its own axis under the driving action and swings around the bearing seat 8 under the drive mechanism. When the material is conveyed to the circumferential surface of the roller 4, the anti-slip grooves on the circumferential surface of the roller 4 come into contact with the material surface, increasing the friction. During the process of the roller 4 swinging to achieve diversion, the friction can ensure that the lateral guiding force of the roller 4 on the material is effectively transmitted to the material, so that the material can accurately change the conveying path according to the swing direction of the roller 4.

[0043] Reference Figure 4As shown, the roller 4 is the driving wheel, and the frame 1 is equipped with a driver 7, which is electrically connected to each roller 4. The roller 4 is designed as a driving wheel, possessing its own rotational power source, so that it can be connected to the power output terminal of the driver 7 via a cable 9 for power and signal transmission. The driver 7 is mounted on the side or bottom of the frame 1 to avoid occupying material conveying space and facilitate connection with the roller 4. The driver 7 is electrically connected to each roller 4, specifically through a wire connection to provide power. This electrical connection not only provides power to the roller 4 but also transmits control signals, allowing the control system to adjust the output speed of the driver 7, thereby controlling the rotational speed of the roller 4. Furthermore, the driver 7 can also be equipped with a corresponding control module to receive external control commands and achieve real-time adjustment of the rotational speed of multiple rollers 4.

[0044] The driving component 5 is configured as a drive motor, and the output end of the drive motor is connected to a reducer 6. The output shaft of the reducer 6 is connected to the center of the eccentric disk 16, and the drive rod 15 is located on one side of the center of the eccentric disk 16. The driving component 5 is configured as a drive motor, such as a servo motor. The reducer 6 adjusts the output speed and torque of the drive motor. It has multiple sets of gear transmission mechanisms inside, which reduce the speed and amplify the torque through gear meshing. The output end of the reducer 6 is connected to the center of the eccentric disk 16 by a shaft. The drive rod 15 is located on one side of the center of the eccentric disk 16, that is, the drive rod 15 and the eccentric disk 16 form an eccentric connection. The fixed position of the drive rod 15 needs to be determined according to the required swing amplitude of the swing frame 10. The size of the eccentricity directly affects the swing stroke of the swing frame 10. By adjusting the fixed position of the drive rod 15 on the eccentric disk 16 or by selecting an eccentric disk 16 with a different eccentricity, the swing amplitude can be adjusted.

[0045] Reference Figure 2 As shown, the frame 1 is provided with a spacer 18, and the protective cover 2 is connected to the frame 1 through the spacer 18. The spacer 18 is provided on the frame 1. The spacer 18 is usually cylindrical in shape and can be made of metal or high-strength engineering plastic. The metal spacer 18 has higher strength and wear resistance and is suitable for scenarios with large forces, while the engineering plastic spacer 18 has elasticity to provide cushioning.

[0046] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
