Similarly, the initial position of the horizontal push tray is positioned on the left side or the right side of the space, when the longitudinal push tray finishes working, the horizontal push tray is started, the article 18 gradually approaches to the right side or the left side, and when the article 18 is close to the right side wall or the left side wall, the infrared probe is triggered, and the pushing work is stopped. Finally, the object volume is calculated based on the moving distance of the push tray, and then the commodity volume-to-weight ratio is calculated based on the volume-to-weight data, thereby verifying whether the item 18 is a specified recycled item.
As the preferred embodiment of this embodiment, the thing flow box can also replace the carton case of sending the express delivery at present, reaches the effect of recycling, realizes saving and the environmental protection of cost.
In the prior art, when the article is transported through the logistics box, the article which is transported by mistake inevitably occurs, and the recycled article needs to be transported back, but it is difficult to determine that the article loaded into the logistics box is the article which needs to be recycled, so that the article which is transported back is incorrect, namely the recycled article does not occur.
The calculation unit 11 calculates the volume of the article according to the moving distance of the moving unit 17 in each direction, and calculates the density of the article according to the weight of the article and the volume of the article, so that the comparison unit 12 can compare the density of the article 18 in the logistics box with the density of the recycled article, and whether the article in the logistics box is the specified recycled article or not is accurately judged.
Further, as shown in fig. 9, the article authentication mechanism 1 may further include: and a communication unit 20 for transmitting at least one of the verification result, the density of the article, the volume of the article, and the weight of the article to the terminal 500.
