Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sorting and conveying technology, specifically to a side-mounted roller sorting conveyor. Background Technology

[0002] In automated sorting and conveying systems in logistics, e-commerce and other fields, sorting efficiency and operational accuracy directly determine the overall logistics turnover efficiency. Before key processes (such as items entering the sorting mechanism and barcode scanning system), the system needs to transport items to the side to ensure that the items can be sorted out better and to improve the accuracy of barcode reading.

[0003] This is because if items are not precisely positioned to the side when entering the sorting mechanism, they are prone to misalignment with the sorting channel due to positional deviation, causing problems such as material jamming and sorting failure, which affects the continuity of sorting. Furthermore, if items are not stably positioned to one side of the scanning area before entering the barcode scanning system, the barcode will deviate from the effective reading range of the scanning equipment, resulting in barcode reading failure or misreading. This not only requires manual intervention and adjustment but also reduces the overall sorting efficiency.

[0004] However, existing technologies for conveying items to the side mostly employ guiding structures to guide and position the items during the conveying process. However, some guiding structures can only be adapted to items of specific sizes. When faced with items of different sizes and shapes, they are prone to side offset, or squeezing leading to jamming or overturning, resulting in poor operational reliability and easy wear and tear on the surface of the items. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a side-mounted roller sorting conveyor to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: A side-mounted roller sorting conveyor includes a mounting frame and a conveying assembly. The conveying assembly is located inside the mounting frame and is used to carry and convey items. The conveying assembly includes multiple double-groove rollers and a circular belt arranged along the conveying direction. All the double-groove rollers are installed at a certain angle to one side. The multiple double-groove rollers form two sets of roller segments arranged along the conveying direction. Each set of roller segments is provided with a double-groove roller of different lengths. Each set of roller segments is provided with a double-groove motorized roller. All double-groove rollers and double-groove motorized rollers have grooves on their outer sides. Adjacent double-groove rollers in each set of roller segments are driven by the circular belt embedded in the grooves. Each set of double-groove motorized rollers is driven by the circular belt embedded in the grooves and adjacent double-groove rollers.

[0007] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0008] Furthermore, the mounting bracket includes two side plates and two cross braces. The two side plates are symmetrically distributed front and back, and the two cross braces are fixedly installed between the two side plates by fasteners.

[0009] Furthermore, each of the two side plates has several mounting slots inside, and the top of each of the two cross braces is fixedly mounted with a first roller right angle plate by fasteners. The front and rear sides of the two sets of roller sections are detachably mounted in the corresponding mounting slots through their shafts, and one section of the outermost double-groove roller of the two sets of roller sections is detachably mounted to the corresponding first roller right angle plate through its shaft.

[0010] Furthermore, the dual-groove electric roller is fixed to the front side plate via an electric roller fixing plate.

[0011] Furthermore, the shortest double-groove roller in each group of roller sections is installed via a first roller right-angle plate.

[0012] Furthermore, several second roller right-angle plates are fixedly installed on the top of each of the two cross braces by fasteners, and casters are fixed on the front and rear sides of each second roller right-angle plate by fasteners.

[0013] Furthermore, each of the two side plates has two connecting plates fixed to its opposite sides by fasteners.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial technical effects: The equipment is driven by double-groove electric rollers. The rotation of the double-groove electric rollers drives the circular belt installed on the grooves to rotate. The rotation of the circular belt drives the adjacent double-groove rollers to rotate. The circular belt connects multiple grooved double-groove rollers together. Therefore, the rotation of these double-groove rollers, which are installed on the mounting frame at a certain angle, moves the goods on these double-groove rollers forward and to the side of the conveyor line at the same time, realizing the side conveying of the sorting conveyor line.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] Reference Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a side-mounted roller sorting conveyor, including a mounting frame 1 and a conveying assembly 2. The conveying assembly 2 is disposed inside the mounting frame 1 and is used to carry and convey items. The conveying assembly 2 includes multiple double-groove rollers 201 arranged along the conveying direction and a circular belt 202. All double-groove rollers 201 are installed at a certain angle to one side. The multiple double-groove rollers 201 form two sets of roller segments arranged along the conveying direction. Each set of roller segments is provided with a double-groove roller 201 of different lengths. Each set of roller segments is provided with a double-groove electric roller 203. All double-groove rollers 201 and double-groove electric rollers 203 have grooves 204 on their outer sides. Adjacent double-groove rollers 201 in each set of roller segments are driven by the circular belt 202 embedded in the grooves 204. Each set of double-groove electric rollers 203 is driven by the circular belt 202 embedded in the grooves 204 and adjacent double-groove rollers 201.

[0019] The conveying assembly 2 is divided into two sets of roller sections, and each set of roller sections is powered by an independent double-groove electric roller 203. This can distribute the load, extend the service life of the conveyor, and reduce the risk of failure. The speed of the two roller sections can be adjusted independently to match the rhythm differences between the preceding and following processes on the entire conveying line.

[0020] The mounting bracket 1 includes two side plates 101 and two cross braces 102. The two side plates 101 are symmetrically distributed front and back, and the two cross braces 102 are fixedly installed between the two side plates 101 by fasteners.

[0021] With this configuration, the cross brace 102 and the side plate 101 are installed using bolts, washers, and nuts, ensuring stability after installation. The cross brace 102 also serves as a reinforcing rib, preventing the two side plates 101 from expanding or deforming after long-term use, thus extending the service life of the conveyor. Furthermore, it can be processed as an independent component, facilitating rapid on-site assembly and reducing the difficulty and cost of manufacturing, transportation, and maintenance.

[0022] The two side plates 101 each have several mounting slots 103 inside. The tops of the two cross braces 102 are fixedly mounted with first roller right angle plates 104 by fasteners. The front and rear sides of the two sets of roller sections are detachably mounted in the corresponding mounting slots 103 through their shafts. One section of the outermost double-groove roller 201 of the two sets of roller sections is detachably mounted to the corresponding first roller right angle plate 104 through its shaft.

[0023] In this configuration, the double-groove rollers 201 within each roller section are distributed in a sequence of seven long and one short. The seven long double-groove rollers 201 are connected internally by double-groove electric rollers 203 for driving. All double-groove rollers 201 and double-groove electric rollers 203 have oblique retaining rings fitted on their outer circular surfaces and near the shaft ends. Because they are installed through mounting slots and lack the limiting of bearing seats, slight axial wobbling is likely to occur. The oblique retaining rings generate lateral force by contacting the material, guiding the material to deflect to the target side, while simultaneously offsetting the effect of slight movement of the double-groove rollers 201 and double-groove electric rollers 203 on the positioning of the material.

[0024] The double-groove electric roller 203 is fixed to the front side plate 101 by the electric roller fixing plate 3.

[0025] This setup is problematic because the starting torque of the double-groove electric roller 203 is very high. This causes the motor output shaft to violently collide with the frame every time the double-groove electric roller 203 starts and stops. Over time, this can easily lead to shaft wear and wire twisting, reducing its service life. However, by using the electric roller fixing plate 3, the motor output shaft can be firmly restrained by the tight fit between the clamping block and the nut, thus eliminating the risk of shaft wear.

[0026] Among them, the shortest double-groove roller 201 in each group of roller sections is installed through the first roller right-angle plate 104.

[0027] This setup is necessary to ensure the inclined installation of the double-groove roller 201, which is essential for the effective side-mounted transport of goods. Therefore, the shortest double-groove roller 201 needs to be installed via the right-angle plate 104 of the first roller.

[0028] Among them, several second roller right angle plates 105 are fixedly installed on the top of the two cross braces 102 by fasteners, and the front and rear sides of each second roller right angle plate 105 are fixed with casters 4 by fasteners.

[0029] With this configuration, the shortest double-groove rollers 201 are installed on both the left and right sides of the conveyor. Multiple rollers 4 fill the gaps at the connection between the conveyor and the upstream and downstream equipment, preventing items from getting stuck and providing auxiliary guidance to prevent items from deviating when entering or exiting.

[0030] Among them, two connecting plates 5 are fixed to the opposite sides of the two side plates 101 by fasteners.

[0031] This configuration allows for connection with upstream and downstream equipment of the conveyor via the connecting plate 5.
