Detailed Description

In order to make the above objects, features and advantages of the present invention more comprehensible, embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present invention. The present invention may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein, as those skilled in the art will be able to make similar modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

As shown in fig. 1, a bidirectional sorting cart 100 is shown for one embodiment of the present application, comprising: a track 10, a sorting cart 20 and a bi-directional sorting actuator 30. The sorting trolley 20 is movably arranged on the track 10, the sorting trolley 20 comprises a movable push plate 21, and the push plate 21 can push out the express packages 80 on the sorting trolley 20; the bidirectional sorting actuator 30 comprises a bottom plate 31, a power assembly 32, a first sorting action plate 33 and a second sorting action plate 34, wherein the power assembly 32 is arranged on the bottom plate 31, and the first sorting action plate 33 and the second sorting action plate 34 are respectively rotatably arranged on the bottom plate 31 and are in driving connection with the power assembly 32; when the sorting cart 20 moves into the working stroke of the bidirectional sorting actuator 30 and the push plate 21 is in the first position, the first sorting action plate 33 can be driven by the power assembly 32 to rotate and unfold and push the push plate 21, so as to push the express package 80 in a first direction; alternatively, when the sorting cart 20 moves into the working stroke of the bidirectional sorting actuator 30 and the push plate 21 is in the second position, the second sorting action plate 34 can be driven by the power assembly 32 to rotate and expand to push the push plate 21, so as to push the express package 80 out in the second direction, wherein the first position and the second position are in two opposite positions, and the first direction and the second direction are in two opposite directions.

The bidirectional sorting vehicle 100 of the above scheme is applied to a sorting system, and is used for realizing bidirectional sorting (i.e. sorting and conveying in two different destination directions) of the express packages 80. Specifically, during operation, the sorting cart 20 is loaded with the to-be-sorted parcels 80, when the sorting cart 20 moves along the track 10 to approach the two-way sorting actuator 30 and finally enters the working stroke of the two-way sorting actuator 30, if the pushing plate 21 on the sorting cart 20 is located at the first position at this time, under the driving of the power assembly 32, the first sorting action plate 33 can be rotationally unfolded and push the oncoming pushing plate 21, and at this time, the pushing plate 21 moves along the first sorting action plate 33 so as to push the parcels 80 out in the first direction. Alternatively, if the pusher 21 of the sorting cart 20 is in the second position, the second sorting motion plate 34 can be rotated and unfolded to push the oncoming pusher 21 under the driving of the power assembly 32, and the pusher 21 moves along the second sorting motion plate 34 to push the parcels 80 in the second direction. Since the first direction and the second direction are two completely opposite directions and respectively correspond to two different sorting destinations, the bidirectional sorting cart 100 can perform bidirectional sorting operation on the express packages 80. Compare in traditional two-way letter sorting cross band, with the help of first letter sorting action board 33 or second letter sorting action board 34 and push pedal 21 direction cooperation in this scheme, can be with the accurate propelling movement of express delivery parcel 80 on the letter sorting dolly 20 to preset the position of the point of falling, do benefit to and guarantee follow-up letter sorting operation and packing operation and normally go on, ensure production efficiency to its energy consumption is low, and economic nature is good.

In order to understand the above technical solution, it is necessary to further explain with reference to fig. 1 and 2: the structural condition in fig. 1 and 2 shows the pusher 21 in a first position, i.e. to be understood as being in a left position of the sorting trolley 20, seen from a top view with the sorting trolley 20 on top. The power assembly 32 can simultaneously drive the first sorting motion plate 33 to rotate and unfold in a counterclockwise direction and the second sorting motion plate 34 to rotate and unfold in a clockwise direction. Of course, the power assembly 32 may also drive the first sorting action plate 33 and the second sorting action plate 34 to rotate and unfold sequentially. The unfolded first sorting action plate 33 is located on the moving track of the pushing plate 21, so that when the subsequent sorting trolley 20 moves close to the first sorting action plate 33, the pushing plate 21 can be blocked by the first sorting action plate 33 and generate a pushing component force in the right direction, so that the pushing plate 21 can be guided and pushed in the right direction by the first sorting action plate 33, the pushing plate 21 synchronously pushes the express packages 80 on the sorting trolley 20 and finally pushes the express packages from the right side of the track 10, and the express packages 80 can enter a subsequent sorting channel or package bag. Similarly, if the pusher 21 is at the right position (i.e., the second position) of the sorting cart 20 farthest from the position shown in fig. 1, the pusher 21 is acted by the second sorting action plate 34 at the right side to push the express package 80 toward the left side of the track 10.

With continuing reference to fig. 4 and 5, in some embodiments, the sorting cart 20 further includes a cart body 22 and a guide wheel set disposed on the cart body 22, the guide wheel set is rolling disposed on the rail 10, the cart body 22 is provided with a sliding slot 221, and the push plate 21 is inserted into the sliding slot 221 and can slide back and forth along an extending direction of the sliding slot 221. The vehicle body 22 can be smoothly moved on the track 10 by the guide wheel sets. The push plate 21 can slide from left to right in the sliding groove 221, or slide from right to left, the sliding groove 221 plays a role in guiding and limiting the sliding of the push plate 21, and the accuracy of pushing out the express package 80 by the push plate 21 can be ensured.

Further, the push plate 21 includes a push plate body 211, a connecting plate 212 connected to the push plate body 211 and inserted into the sliding slot 221, and a pushing seat 213 connected to the connecting plate 212, where the pushing seat 213 can be in pushing fit with the first sorting action plate 33 or the second sorting action plate 34.

The push plate body 211 is a plate body with a certain length, and the length of the push plate body is at least equal to or greater than the width of the vehicle body 22, so that the express package 80 on the vehicle body 22 can be effectively pushed. The connecting plate 212 is used for connecting the push plate body 211 with the push seat 213, and is matched with the sliding groove 221 to play a role in sliding guiding and limiting. The pushing seat 213 can drive the pushing plate body 211 to slide when pushed by the first sorting action plate 33 or the second sorting action plate 34, so as to reliably and smoothly push out the express package 80.

Specifically, in this embodiment, the pushing seat 213 includes a body, and the body extends along the front and rear sides of the extending direction of the sliding slot 221 to form an anti-tilt baffle, which is in clearance fit with the bottom surface of the cart body 22 to prevent the sorting cart 20 from tipping in extreme situations.

With continuing reference to fig. 4 and 5, the sorting cart 20 further includes a sorting roller 23, and the sorting roller 23 is rotatably disposed on the pushing seat 213 and can be in rolling engagement with the first sorting action plate 33 or the second sorting action plate 34. Sorting roller 23 specifically is the gyro wheel of rubber material, can alleviate with first letter sorting action board 33 or second letter sorting action board 34 contact impact in the twinkling of an eye, plays the effect of making an uproar, promotes two-way letter sorting car 100's operational reliability of falling the buffering. In addition, the rollers can roll along the first and second sorting action plates 33 and 34, and the friction resistance and wear of the push plate 21 and the first and second sorting action plates 33 and 34 can be significantly reduced.

With continued reference to fig. 1 and 2, in some embodiments, the first sorting action plate 33 has a first pushing arc 331, the second sorting action plate 34 has a second pushing arc 341, the first pushing arc 331 and the second pushing arc 341 are disposed opposite to each other, and the first pushing arc 331 and the second pushing arc 341 can be pushed to cooperate with the sorting roller 23.

That is, the first sorting motion plate 33 is in contact engagement with the sorting roller 23 through the first push arc 331, and the second sorting motion plate 34 is in contact engagement with the sorting roller 23 through the second push arc 341. Wherein first promotion cambered surface 331 and second promotion cambered surface 341 all set up to the indent cambered surface, and sorting gyro wheel 23 rolls on the indent cambered surface, can make the lateral shifting of push pedal 21 mild and accurate, helps guaranteeing that the placement after express delivery parcel 80 releases is accurate reliable.

It should be noted that the width of the track 10 is not designed to be too wide for the sake of reducing the size of the sorting system, increasing the degree of integration of the components, etc., and accordingly, more stringent requirements are placed on the width of the sorting carts 20 and the size of the first and second sorting action plates 33 and 34. As a result, the pushing plate 21 is not enough to push the express package 80 out of the sorting cart 20 only under the pushing of the first pushing arc 331 and the second pushing arc 341, that is, the pushing plate 21 can only complete a partial path movement of the express package 80 on the sorting cart 20.

With continuing reference to fig. 1 and fig. 2, in order to reliably push the parcels 80 out of the sorting cart 20, the bidirectional sorting cart 100 further includes a pushing-continuing block 40, the pushing-continuing block 40 is provided with a first pushing-continuing surface 41 and a second pushing-continuing surface 42, the first pushing-continuing surface 41 can engage with the first pushing arc surface 331, and the second pushing-continuing surface 42 can engage with the second pushing arc surface 341.

In this scheme, in order to make the sorting dolly 20 can both push out express delivery parcel 80 two-way letter sorting when moving optional position, along the extending direction of track 10, arranged multiunit first letter sorting action board 33 and second letter sorting action board 34 and a plurality of the same a plurality of continuous pushing stoppers 40 of quantity. Take two consecutive.

Referring to fig. 2, when the sorting roller 23 rolls along the first pushing arc 331 to the end, an eccentric pushing force is generated on the first sorting action plate 33 to force the first sorting action plate 33 to rotate clockwise and return, and a gap is generated between the first sorting action plate 33 and the upstream continuous pushing block 40 to allow the sorting roller 23 to pass through. Meanwhile, the first pushing arc surface 331 on the rotated first sorting action plate 33 can be smoothly connected with the first continuous pushing surface 41 on the downstream continuous pushing stop 40, so that the sorting roller 23 can further roll onto the first continuous pushing surface 41, and the pushing plate 21 continues to push the express package 80 to move after the sorting roller 23 finishes walking the first continuous pushing surface 41 until the express package 80 is pushed out of the sorting trolley 20. Similarly, the matching relationship between the second pushing arc 341 and the second pushing continuing surface 42 is similar to the above process, and is not described herein again.

It should be noted that the arrow in fig. 2 indicates the rolling path of the sorting roller 23 moving from the left side to the right side (i.e., the parcels 80 are sorted out from the right side of the track 10).

That is, it can be understood that the sorting roller 23 needs to continuously go through the first pushing arc surface 331 and the first pushing surface 41, or continuously go through the second pushing arc surface 341 and the second pushing surface 42, so as to ensure that the pushing plate 21 completely pushes out the express package 80 on the sorting cart 20. It is easy to understand that the first pushing arc surface 331 and the first pushing continuing surface 41 in the present embodiment are inclined in the same direction, i.e. both inclined toward the right side of the track 10, for pushing the express package 80 out from the right side of the track 10. The second pushing arc 341 and the second pushing surface 42 are inclined in the same direction, i.e. both inclined toward the left side of the track 10, for pushing the express package 80 out from the left side of the track 10.

With continued reference to fig. 1, further, the first sorting action plate 33 is further provided with a first avoiding arc surface 332 disposed adjacent to the first pushing arc surface 331, and the second sorting action plate 34 is further provided with a second avoiding arc surface 342 disposed adjacent to the second pushing arc surface 341. Specifically, the first avoiding arc surface 332 and the second avoiding arc surface 342 are both concave arc surfaces, which are helpful for avoiding the continuous pushing stopper 40 at the downstream when the first sorting action plate 33 and the second sorting action plate 34 rotate, so as to prevent the collision interference problem.

With reference to fig. 1 and fig. 2, further, a first positioning tip 50 is formed at a corner of the first pushing arc surface 331 and the first avoiding arc surface 332, a second positioning tip 60 is formed at a corner of the second pushing arc surface 341 and the second avoiding arc surface 342, the continuous pushing stopper 40 further has a first positioning engaging surface 43 and a second positioning engaging surface 44, the first positioning tip 50 can abut against the first positioning engaging surface 43, and the second positioning tip 60 can abut against the second positioning engaging surface 44. Therefore, after the sorting trolley 20 passes through, the first sorting action plate 33 and the second sorting action plate 34 are accurately positioned when being rotated and reset, so that the reliability of participating in bidirectional sorting next time is ensured.

Further, an engaging tip 70 is formed at a corner of the first continuous pushing surface 41 and the second continuous pushing surface 42, and the engaging tip 70 can contact with the first positioning tip 50 or the second positioning tip 60. When the sorting roller 23 rolls along the first pushing arc 331 or the second pushing arc 341 and passes through, the first sorting action plate 33 and the second sorting action plate 34 rotate in the inward opposite direction, and at this time, the engaging tip 70 contacts with the first positioning tip 50 or the second positioning tip 60, which is helpful for positioning, so that the first pushing arc 331 can form a smooth transition engagement with the first continuously pushing surface 41, or the second pushing arc 341 can form a smooth transition engagement with the second continuously pushing surface 42, thereby ensuring the smooth and continuous passing of the sorting roller 23.

Furthermore, the first sorting action plate 33 is further provided with a third avoiding arc surface 333, and the third avoiding arc surface 333 is used for preventing the first sorting action plate 33 from interfering and colliding with the rail 10 when rotating; the second sorting action plate 34 is further provided with a fourth evasion arc surface 343, and the fourth evasion arc surface 343 is used for preventing the second sorting action plate 34 from interfering and colliding with the rail 10 when rotating. The first avoidance arc surface 332 and the fourth avoidance arc surface 343 are both facing the side of the rail 10 and are both configured as large-angle convex arc surfaces, so that collision and interference with the rail 10 when the first sorting action plate 33 and the second sorting action plate 34 rotate can be avoided.

With reference to fig. 3, in addition, on the basis of any of the above embodiments, the power assembly 32 includes an electromagnet 321, a magnetic attraction matching body 322, a pulling body 323, a first wheel axle 324 and a second wheel axle 325 which are all disposed on the side surface of the bottom plate 31 departing from the first sorting action plate 33 and the second sorting action plate 34, the electromagnet 321 and the magnetic attraction matching body 322 are disposed at an interval and are opposite to each other, the electromagnet 321 can attract or release the magnetic attraction matching body 322, the pulling body 323 is disposed on the magnetic attraction matching body 322, two ends of the pulling body 323 are respectively connected to the first wheel axle 324 and the second wheel axle 325, the first wheel axle 324 is further connected to the first sorting action plate 33, and the second wheel axle 325 is further connected to the second sorting action plate 34.

As in the previous solution, the power assembly 32 has the function of rotating the first 33 and second 34 sorting action plates open when the sorting carriages 20 are approached, so as to be able to exert a pushing action in contact with the sorting rollers 23. Specifically, when the sorting cart 20 approaches, the electromagnet 321 is energized to generate a magnetic attraction force on the magnetic engaging body 322, the magnetic engaging body 322 moves close to the electromagnet 321 and is fixed by attraction, the magnetic engaging body 322 moves while driving the pulling body 323 to move synchronously, and the pulling body 323 further drives the first wheel axle 324 and the second wheel axle 325 to rotate in opposite directions, so that the first wheel axle 324 and the second wheel axle 325 finally drive the first sorting action plate 33 and the second sorting action plate 34 to rotate and unfold in opposite directions synchronously.

Compare and equip the motor in the cross area in prior art and be power equipment, this scheme only adopts electro-magnet 321 to inhale or release the attraction of magnetism cooperation body 322 and can realize providing power for two-way letter sorting, and the structure is simpler, and the energy consumption is lower, and use cost is lower, helps showing the promotion economic nature.

Specifically, in the above embodiment, the pulling body 323 is a chain, the first wheel shaft 324 is provided with a first chain wheel, the second wheel shaft 325 is provided with a second chain wheel, and two ends of the chain are respectively engaged and wound on the first chain wheel and the second chain wheel. By adopting the meshing transmission structure of the chain wheels and the chains, the magnetic attraction matching body 322 can be ensured to drive the first sorting action plate 33 and the second sorting action plate 34 and drive the synchronous performance, and the reliability of the sorting trolley 20 for executing bidirectional sorting is improved.

With reference to fig. 3, the bidirectional cart 100 further includes a guiding member 326, wherein the guiding member 326 is disposed on the bottom plate 31 and connected to the magnetic engaging member 322. The guiding assembly 326 can ensure that the magnetic attraction matching body 322 moves smoothly in the process of approaching or departing from the electromagnet 321.

In addition, in order to enable the first sorting motion plate 33 and the second sorting motion plate 34 to be rapidly and automatically rotated and reset after the sorting cart 20 passes through, so as to be rapidly put into the next sorting operation, the power assembly 32 further includes a first elastic torsion member and a second elastic torsion member, the first elastic torsion member is connected between the first wheel axle 324 and the bottom plate 31, and the second elastic torsion member is connected between the second wheel axle 325 and the bottom plate 31.

Alternatively, the first and second resilient torsion members may be torsion springs or other members having equivalent technical effects.
