Abstract

The invention discloses a modularized cam sorting device and a sorting method. The parcel or goods move forward under the drive of horizontal power transmission device, when arriving the assigned position, positioning sensor sends the signal and gives central controller, and central controller sends the signal for cam letter sorting motor, and cam letter sorting motor is rotatory, and goods or parcel leave the cylinder under the lift of cam and do vertical motion, accomplish the letter sorting. The sorting efficiency of the invention is far higher than that of the traditional jacking transplanting and sorting machine, the modularization can be flexibly combined according to the actual requirement, and the assembly and disassembly are convenient.

Description

Modularized cam sorting device and sorting method

Technical Field

The technology relates to the industries of logistics, express delivery and transportation.

Background

With the rapid development of the express delivery industry, the pressure of the industry is increased, and the problems and difficulties are increased. For example, the labor cost is continuously increased, the sorting efficiency is low, the sorting error rate of the express mail is high, and the industrial disorder is more and more popularized. In order to realize green development and standard development of the express delivery industry, the company develops a modularized cam sorting device. This technique is different from the sorting machines currently in use or robots that have been successfully developed.

The existing sorting machines are of the types of a cross belt type sorting machine, a balance wheel sorting machine, a swing arm sorting machine and the like. The cross belt type sorting machine is too high in manufacturing cost, is mostly used for large-scale sorting centers, has higher requirements on fields, is inconvenient to install and has poor flexibility; the sorting speed of the balance wheel sorting machine is low, and small packages are not easy to sort out. The swing arm type sorting machine is low in sorting speed, and the main sorting object is a large package.

Disclosure of Invention

The invention provides a modularized cam sorting device aiming at the problems of low sorting efficiency, poor automation degree, high cost and the like of the conventional express mail.

A modularized cam sorting device comprises a group of horizontal power transmission mechanisms, a plurality of groups of vertical cam sorting mechanisms, cam sorting motors, positioning sensors, a central controller and a rack.

The horizontal power transmission mechanism comprises a horizontal transportation motor, rollers and a poly-wedge belt or a synchronous belt connected with the rollers, the horizontal transportation motor is connected with the rollers through belts, the rollers are connected through the poly-wedge belt or the synchronous belt, and the power transmission mechanism is mainly used as a power source for transporting packages or goods.

The vertical cam sorting mechanism is the core content of the invention, and comprises a plurality of groups of cams, cam shafts, synchronizing wheels or chain wheels, belts, cam sorting motors and origin sensors.

Furthermore, the concave side of each cam faces upwards, 7 to 8 cams are fixed together through the cam shaft at a certain interval according to the length of the module to form a group of cams, and 4 to 5 groups of cams form a set of cam sorting mechanism at a certain interval according to the width of the module.

Further, be connected with synchronizing wheel and hold-in range or sprocket and chain between camshaft and the camshaft, guarantee during the installation that the concave surface of cam all faces up, the cam group with organize between be connected with the belt.

The cam sorting motor is connected with the cam shaft through a synchronous belt or a chain wheel, and the origin sensor is installed on a first cam of one group of cams and used for positioning the cams.

The positioning sensor comprises a group of horizontal and multiple groups of vertical photoelectric sensors, the horizontal sensors are installed on the uppermost surface of the rack, and the multiple groups of vertical sensors are installed in the gap between the roller and used for positioning the goods package.

The central controller and the upper computer realize information exchange, downwards receive signals of the positioning sensor, send the signals to the upper computer, upwards receive information of the upper computer, and control the left and right rotation of the cam motor to realize sorting of goods packages.

The rack is used as a supporting frame of the whole module, the cam sorting mechanism is installed on the rack, and the horizontal power transmission mechanism vertical to the cam sorting mechanism is installed above the cam sorting mechanism.

The sorting efficiency of the invention is far higher than that of the traditional jacking transplanting and sorting machine, the modularization can be flexibly combined according to the actual requirement, and the assembly and disassembly are convenient.

A sorting method of a modularized cam sorting device comprises the following steps.

S0: and the scanning camera uploads the scanned bar code information of the parcels to the upper computer control system, and the upper computer control system calculates that the parcels should be sorted and unloaded at the module n.

S1: the parcel moves forward under horizontal power transmission mechanism's transportation, when arriving module 1, triggers module 1's photoelectric sensor, and the sensor sends signal for upper computer control system.

S2: the parcel continues to move forward to big module 2, triggers module 2's photoelectric sensor, and the sensor sends signal transmission for upper computer control system.

S3: the parcel continues to move forward to big module 2, triggers module 2's photoelectric sensor, and the sensor sends signal transmission for upper computer control system.

Sn: when the parcel reachd module n, trigger the photoelectric sensor of module n, the sensor gives upper computer control system with signal transmission, and upper computer control system judges that the parcel should carry out the letter sorting here and unload, sends the order and gives module n, and module n's cam letter sorting motor is rotatory, pulls out horizontal power transmission mechanism with the goods, accomplishes and unloads.
