Detailed Description
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which various details of the embodiments of the present invention are included to facilitate understanding, and are to be considered merely exemplary. Accordingly, those of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that various changes and modifications of the embodiments described herein can be made without departing from the scope and spirit of the invention. Also, descriptions of well-known functions and constructions are omitted in the following description for clarity and conciseness.
It should be noted that the embodiments of the present invention and the technical features in the embodiments may be combined with each other without collision.
As shown in fig. 2 and 3, an embodiment of the present invention provides a cross-belt sorter 4 including: the device comprises a discharging device 1, an analysis and identification device 2 and a cross-belt sorter body 3; wherein,,
the discharging device 1 is arranged above the cross belt sorter body 3 in a straddling manner;
the analysis and identification device 2 is used for collecting images of the articles transported by the cross-belt sorter body 3 in real time and identifying the states of the articles 8 on the cross-belt sorter body 3 according to the images of the articles;
the unloading device 1 is used for moving the article with abnormal state to the target position when the state of the article 8 is abnormal.
In the above embodiment, after the analysis recognition device 2 recognizes the article 8 in the abnormal state on the cross-belt sorter body 3, the article 8 in the abnormal state is automatically moved to the target position by the unloading device 1 straddling the cross-belt sorter body 3. Therefore, the articles 8 with abnormal states can be automatically and timely cleaned, and compared with the mode of manually processing the articles 8 with abnormal states, the sorting efficiency of the cross belt sorting machine 4 can be improved by saving manpower.
Wherein the articles 8 in abnormal condition are generally articles not transported to the sorting carts 5 located on the cross-belt sorter body 3, such as articles or packages, which are left between two sorting carts 5.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 3, in one embodiment of the present invention, the discharging device 1 includes a discharging member; wherein the analysis and recognition device 2 is further configured to determine a real-time position of the article 8 with abnormal state, and based on the real-time position and the target position, make the unloading component move along the first direction Y when moving to the unloading position, so as to move the article 8 with abnormal state to the target position.
For example, when the analysis and recognition device 2 determines that the distance between the article 8 in the abnormal state and the discharge member is smaller than the preset threshold value according to the real-time position of the article 8 in the abnormal state, the discharge member is controlled to move along the first direction Y. The first direction Y is preferably a direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the cross-belt sorter body 3, that is, when the moving condition is satisfied, a line connecting the real-time position of the article 8 in the abnormal state and the target position corresponding thereto is parallel to the first direction Y, and in other words, when the article 8 in the abnormal state is transported on the cross-belt sorter body 3 to face the discharging means, the discharging means is controlled to move in the first direction Y to accurately push the article 8 in the abnormal state.
Of course, since the abnormal state article 8 is generally a package or an article having a certain space volume, when the abnormal state article 8 is pushed by the unloading member, the unloading member may deviate slightly from the abnormal state article 8, that is, the unloading member may move the abnormal state article 8 without aligning the center of the abnormal state article 8, in other words, when the included angle formed by the line between the real-time position and the target position and the first direction Y is smaller than the angle threshold, the unloading member may move in the first direction Y, where the angle threshold may be set according to the actual requirement and the size of the article volume, for example, the angle threshold is set to 1 ° to 15 °.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the discharging device 1 may further include: a first driving part, a first guide assembly and a first connecting part; wherein,,
the first guide assembly is supported above the cross-belt sorter body 3, and the arrangement direction of the first guide assembly is parallel to the first direction Y; the discharging part is connected with the first guiding component through the first connecting part; the first driving component is used for driving the first connecting component to move along the first guiding component so as to drive the discharging component to move along the first direction Y.
The first guiding component can be in various forms, such as a guide rail, a sliding groove, a rack and the like, the first connecting component is matched with the first guiding component, and the first guiding component can also be in various forms, such as a gear, a pulley, a connecting plate or a connecting plate with a pulley and the like.
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 4 and 5, the first guide assembly includes: a first rack 112 and a first linear guide 114, the first driving part being a first motor 111, the first connecting part being a first connecting plate 113;

the first rack 112 and the first linear guide 114 are disposed in parallel to each other.
Thus, when the first motor 111 is driven by the analysis and recognition device 2 to operate, the first gear on the first motor 111 rotates, and the first rack 112 meshed with the first gear drives accordingly, so as to drive the first connecting plate 113 connected with the first rack 112 to move, and the first connecting plate 113 moves linearly in the first direction Y under the guiding action of the first linear guide 114, so as to drive the discharging part connected with the first connecting plate 113 to move in the first direction Y. Therefore, the abnormal article 8 can be pushed by the movement of the discharging part in the first direction Y, so that the parameters such as the moving distance and the moving speed of the discharging part in the first direction Y can be controlled by controlling the working parameters such as the working time length and the power of the motor, and the moving distance of the discharging part to the abnormal article 8 can be further controlled, so that the abnormal article 8 can be accurately moved to the target position.
It should be noted that two first linear guides 114 parallel to each other may be provided at both sides corresponding to the first connection plate 113 so as to guide the first connection plate 113.
It is to be understood that the target position of the article 8 in the abnormal state may be the grid 7 provided on the side surface of the cross-belt sorter body 3, or may be another position, for example, an entrance of a storage device provided on the ground. In addition, the back surface of the first connecting plate 113 is a surface thereof close to the cross-belt sorter body 3, and correspondingly, the front surface of the first connecting plate 113 is a surface thereof away from the cross-belt sorter body 3. The front and rear surfaces of the second and third connection plates 122 and 132 described below are also described with the same rule.

In the case where the first connection plate 113 and the second connection plate 122 are the same connection plate, in order to facilitate the layout of the second motor 121 and the first motor 111 and to ensure that the second gear of the second motor 121 is engaged with the second rack 123, the second motor 121 may be disposed at the front of the second connection plate 122. Of course, when the first and second connection plates 113 and 122 are the same connection plate and the connection plate area is large, the first and second motors 111 and 121 may be both disposed at the rear surface of the second connection plate 122, as shown in fig. 6.

Here, when the analysis and recognition device 2 determines that the article 8 in abnormal state moves to the area corresponding to the unloading device 1 according to the real-time position of the tracked article 8 in abnormal state, the synchronous belt 133 is controlled to move synchronously with the sorting vehicle 5, when the speed of the synchronous belt 133 is the same as that of the sorting vehicle 5, the unloading part can be controlled to start to descend, and when the unloading part descends to a designated height, the unloading part is controlled to move along the first direction X so as to push the article 8 in abnormal state into the target position such as the gathering grid 7 arranged at the side edge of the cross-belt sorting machine body 3. The area corresponding to the unloading device 1 may be a projection area of the unloading device 1 on the cross-belt sorter body 3.
