Example 8
As shown in fig. 2, a plate-turnover type sorting machine includes a frame 9, an endless track 10, a sorting trolley 11, an upper packing table (not shown), a lower packing table 12, and any one of the tray returning mechanisms 13 described in embodiments 1 to 7. An endless track 10 is mounted on top of the frame 9. A plurality of sorting trolleys 11 are arranged end to end in sequence on the circular track 10. The frame 11-1 of two adjacent sorting trolleys 11 is hinged or connected through a ball hinge. Each sorting trolley 11 is driven by a non-contact linear motor 14 and can periodically and continuously convey goods along the endless track 10. The non-contact linear motor 14 is fixed on the frame 9 and can push the secondary plate 11-6 (aluminum plate) on the sorting trolley 11 without contact. The packing table is arranged at the side part of the circular track 10 and is used for adding the goods packages to the sorting trolley 11. The lower packing table 12 is disposed directly below one of the endless tracks 10. Two tray resetting mechanisms 13 which are arranged side by side and at intervals are arranged below the annular track 10 (between the inner track and the outer track) and are positioned at the tail end of the lower packing table 12 (the position of the sorting trolley away from the upper part of the lower packing table). The top surface of the inclined guide part 2 in the tray resetting mechanism 13 is gradually raised along the conveying direction of the sorting trolley 11 from low to high, and the tray on the sorting trolley 11 can be gradually pushed to reset. The lower packing table 12 is located between the upper packing table and the tray returning mechanism 13.
As shown in FIG. 3, the sorting trolley 11 comprises a frame 11-1, a supporting wheel 11-2, a positioning wheel 11-3, a tray 11-4, a lock catch 11-5 and a secondary plate 11-6. Four supporting wheels 11-2 which are vertically arranged are arranged in pairs in a group and are arranged on two sides of the bottom of the frame 11-1 and are supported by the annular rail 10. The horizontally arranged positioning wheels 11-3 are supported at the side parts of the frame 11-1 and are used for matching with the side plates of the annular track 10 to realize the positioning and turning of the sorting trolley 11. The secondary plate 11-6 is fixed on one side of the frame 11-1 and is used for matching with a non-contact linear motor 14 on the frame 9. The two trays 11-4 are arranged on the frame 11-1 side by side. The two trays 11-4 correspond to the two tray resetting mechanisms 13 respectively in position. One side edge of the tray 11-4 is hinged with the frame 11-1. In the state that the tray 11-4 is not turned down, the hinge shaft of the tray 11-4 is positioned at one side of the tray 11-4 close to the conveying direction. So that the sorting trolley 11 with the trays 11-4 turned down can be turned up and reset when passing the inclined guide 2 of the tray resetting mechanism 13. The middle parts of the bottom surfaces of the two trays 11-4 are respectively fixed with an oblique block which is used for being matched with the tray resetting mechanism 13 to reduce the impact when the trays are reset. When the sorting trolley 11 is moved to the highest position of the inclined guide 2, the tray 11-4 is supported by the inclined guide 2, and the sorting trolley 11 as a whole is not derailed by the ceiling height.
The opposite side edges of both trays 11-4 support first rollers 11-7. The two sides of the bottom of the frame 11-1 are provided with lock catches 11-5 for locking the position of the tray 11-4. The middle part of the lock catch 11-5 is hinged with the bottom of the frame 11-1 (the rotating axis is vertically arranged). A torsional spring for resetting the lock catch 11-5 is arranged on a hinged shaft between the lock catch 11-5 and the frame 11-1. Two ends of the torsion spring are respectively fixed with the frame 11-1 and the lock catch 11-5. The inner end of the lock catch 11-5 is fixed with a limiting block 11-8. The top surface of the limiting block 11-8 is a plane and is used for supporting the first roller 11-7 on the tray 11-4, and the bottom surface is an inclined surface, so that the first roller 11-7 can push the limiting block 11-8 away when the tray 11-4 is turned upwards and reset, and resetting and locking are realized. The outer end of the lock catch 11-5 extends out and is used for being matched with a lock catch toggle cylinder 12-3 in the lower packing table 12 to toggle the lock catch 11-5, and releasing of locking of the tray 11-4 is achieved. In an initial state, the tray 11-4 is kept horizontal and supported by the limiting block 11-8 on the lock catch 11-5, and packages can be placed and transported; when the lock catch 11-5 is pulled, the first roller 11-7 on the tray 11-4 is separated from the limiting block 11-8, the tray 11-4 loses support and turns downwards, and a package placed on the tray 11-4 falls downwards into the package dropping table 12.
As shown in fig. 2, 4 and 5, the unpacking table 12 is composed of a plurality of unpacking units arranged in sequence along the conveying direction of the sorting cart 11. The lower ladle unit comprises a lower ladle inclined plate 12-1, a lower ladle switching cylinder 12-2, a lock catch toggle cylinder 12-3 and two lower ladle grids 12-4. Two lower packing compartments 12-4 are arranged side by side below the endless track 10. The two lower packing grids 12-4 are internally provided with inclined sliding-out surfaces with opposite directions. The lower packing sloping plate 12-1 is arranged between the annular guide rail and the lower packing grid 12-4. The middle part of the lower package inclined plate 12-1 and the frame 9 form a rotating pair with a common axis parallel to the conveying direction of the sorting trolley 11. The turning position of the lower package sloping plate 12-1 can determine which lower package grid the packages falling from the sorting trolley 11 fall into. The lower ladle switching cylinder 12-2 is arranged below the lower ladle inclined plate 12-1, the cylinder body is hinged with the rack 9, and the piston rod is hinged with the bottom surface of the lower ladle inclined plate 12-1; the pushing-out and retracting of the lower bag switching cylinder 12-2 can drive the lower bag inclined plate 12-1 to turn over, so that the grid opening into which the packages fall is controlled.
The two lock catch toggle cylinders 12-3 are respectively arranged at two sides in the annular track 10 and respectively correspond to the outer ends of the two lock catches 11-5 on the sorting trolley 11. The top end of a piston rod of the two lock catch toggle cylinders 12-3 is supported with a second roller 12-5. When the lock catch toggle cylinder 12-3 retracts, the second roller 12-5 is staggered with the outer end of the lock catch 11-5 on the corresponding side of the sorting trolley 11, and the lock catch 11-5 cannot be toggled when the sorting trolley 11 passes by; when the lock catch poking cylinder 12-3 is pushed out, the second roller 12-5 is aligned with the outer end of the lock catch 11-5 on the corresponding side of the sorting trolley 11, and the sorting trolley 11 pokes the lock catch 11-5 when passing through, so that the tray 11-4 on the corresponding side of the sorting trolley 11 is turned downwards.
The sorting method of the plate-turning type sorting machine comprises the following steps:
firstly, each sorting trolley 11 circularly moves along an annular guide rail under the driving of a non-contact linear motor 14; the worker continuously sends the packages to be sorted to the moving sorting trolley 11 on the upper packing table; and the target lower package lattice corresponding to each package is obtained in advance in a code scanning mode.
And secondly, conveying the packages to the upper part of a lower package table 12 along with the sorting trolley 11, when the distance between the packages and a target lower package grid reaches a preset value (the distance has passed through a lock catch toggle cylinder 12-3 of a last lower package unit of the lower package unit where the target grid is located), driving a lower package inclined plate 12-1 to turn over and switch to a state of abutting against the target grid by a lower package switching cylinder 12-2 in the lower package unit where the target grid is located, pushing out a lock catch toggle cylinder 12-3 corresponding to the lower package unit where the target grid is located, enabling a corresponding second roller 12-5 to toggle a corresponding lock catch 11-5 on the sorting trolley, enabling a tray 11-4 corresponding to the packages to turn downwards, and enabling the packages to be conveyed to the target grid through the lower package inclined plate 12-1.
And step three, when the sorting trolley 11 with the tray 11-4 turned downwards leaves the upper part of the lower packing table 12 and arrives at the tray resetting mechanism 13, the tray 11-4 turned downwards is gradually turned upwards under the pushing of the inclined guide piece 2, and finally the first roller 11-7 on the tray 11-4 pushes the limiting block 11-8 on the corresponding lock catch 11-5 to be reset and is supported by the limiting block 11-8 again. Because the trolley tray is reset from a 90-degree state to a 0-degree state gradually, the trolley tray reset mechanism has the advantages of small reset resistance, difficulty in failure, low noise and the like.
If a situation that a card package is in the tray 11-4 occurs, the tray 11-4 is difficult to reset under the pushing of the inclined guide part 2, the stress of the inclined guide part 2 is increased to deform the spring, and then the inclined guide part 2 sinks, so that the damage of the sorting trolley 11 or the tray resetting mechanism 13 caused by overlarge extrusion force between the tray 11-4 and the inclined guide part 2 is avoided. At this moment, although the tray of the sorting trolley 11 cannot be reset, the whole sorting machine can continue to normally operate, the worse accidents such as trolley damage or derailment are avoided, and the efficient sorting of the packages is effectively realized.
