Example one

Referring to fig. 1-4, the present application provides a transfer lane that includes deck assemblies 101, the deck assemblies 101 forming a sloped load surface 102 for moving cargo from a high end to a low end of the load surface 102.

In particular, the present application provides a delivery lane, particularly for a vending machine, comprising a deck assembly 101, wherein when goods are placed on a carrying surface 102 of the deck assembly 101, the goods can move along the inclined carrying surface 102 towards a lower end under the influence of gravity. For the goods with the arc-shaped outer surface (for example, bulk and heavy barreled water), the goods can roll from the high end to the low end along the inclined bearing surface 102 under the action of gravity, and the goods conveying efficiency is higher. For other cargo with non-arc outer surfaces, the cargo may slide along the inclined bearing surface 102 toward the lower end under the influence of gravity. The goods taking port is formed in the lower end of the layer plate assembly 101, when goods at the goods taking port are taken away, other goods on the bearing surface 102 can move downwards in sequence, and the goods can be automatically supplemented to the goods taking port, so that the unpowered goods conveying function is realized.

The application provides a conveying goods way, through set up the loading end 102 of slope on plywood subassembly 101, the dead weight that utilizes the goods transports the goods to getting goods department, need not to set up actuating mechanism, and simple structure is effective, low in manufacturing cost is honest and clean, and the later maintenance of being convenient for.

In an optional scheme of this embodiment, the number of the layer assemblies 101 is multiple, and the multiple layer assemblies 101 are arranged at intervals along the gravity direction; the adjacent two deck assemblies 101 are inclined in opposite directions and the cargo can fall from the lower end of the upper deck assembly 101 to the upper end of the lower deck assembly 101.

In this embodiment, the cargo can move from the high end to the low end of the tier assemblies 101, and the multiple tiers of tier assemblies 101 form an "S" shaped transfer path, increasing the length of the cargo transport so that the transfer lanes can store and transfer a greater number of cargo. As shown in fig. 1, the a direction shown in the drawing is a conveying direction of the goods.

In an alternative of this embodiment, the delivery lane further comprises a guide 103; the guide 103 is located between the adjacent two deck assemblies 101 to guide the falling motion of the goods.

In this embodiment, in order to prevent the goods from falling onto the lower deck assemblies 101 when falling, a guide 103 is provided between adjacent two deck assemblies 101.

Specifically, the guide 103 forms a first guide surface 104 and a second guide surface 105; wherein, between two adjacent laminate assemblies 101, the first guide surface 104 is located at the lower end of the upper laminate assembly 101; the first guide surface 104 is inclined toward the bearing surface 102 of the upper deck assembly 101, and the angle of inclination of the first guide surface 104 to the horizontal plane is greater than the angle of inclination of the bearing surface 102 and less than 90 degrees.

To illustrate by way of example, when a worker refills a delivery lane with bottled water from the uppermost shelf, the bottled water rolls down the sloped carrying surface 102. If the low level end department of plywood subassembly 101 is provided with vertical face (for example the casing lateral wall of vending machine), the bottled water extrusion of the bottled water of high level end to the low level end causes the bottled water to pile up in low level end department easily, causes the bottled water can not be in the same direction as the plywood subassembly 101 of falling on the lower floor. The first guide surface 104 is inclined toward the carrying surface 102, and a guide space is formed between the first guide surface and the carrying surface, so that the barreled water sequentially rolls downwards along the guide space, and the barreled water smoothly falls on the lower layer plate assembly 101.

Between two adjacent laminate assemblies 101, the second guide surface 105 is located at the high end of the lower laminate assembly 101, the bottom end of the second guide surface 105 is connected to the lower laminate assembly 101, and the second guide surface 105 is inclined in the opposite direction to the first guide surface 104.

When the plywood subassembly 101 whereabouts of the plywood subassembly 101 of bottled water follow upper strata to the plywood subassembly 101 of lower floor, high position department to the plywood subassembly 101 of lower floor says, in order to prevent that the bottled water of this department from receiving the extrusion of its upper portion bottled water, cause the bottled water pressurized deformation of this department and be detained here, the second spigot surface 105 of slope has been set up here, make the bottled water of this department not under the bottled water on its upper portion, the bottled water of this department is difficult for the pressurized deformation, and second spigot surface 105 can also be with the orientation of bottled water to low position end department, so that the rolling motion of bottled water along conveying goods way is more smooth.

In an optional scheme of this embodiment, a notch 106 is formed at a low-position end of each layer board assembly 101, and between two adjacent layer board assemblies 101, the notch 106 corresponds to a high-position end of the lower layer board assembly 101, so that the goods fall from the notch 106.

In this embodiment, the lower end of the deck assembly 101 is provided with a notch 106, and the guide member 103 may be disposed at the notch 106, so that the goods can fall from the notch 106 to the lower upper end of the deck assembly 101. The end of the layer board assembly 101 can be flush with the side wall of the vending machine, so that the appearance of the vending machine is more regular, and the occupied space of the vending machine is saved.

In an optional scheme of the embodiment, the conveying channel further comprises a support frame 110 and a connecting piece 111; the end part of the laminate assembly 101 is detachably connected with the support frame 110 through a connecting piece 111, and a damping piece is arranged between the laminate assembly 101 and the connecting piece 111; the top of the guiding element 103 is detachably connected with the supporting frame 110, and the middle of the guiding element 103 is detachably connected with the supporting frame 110 through a connecting element 111.

In this embodiment, the support bracket 110 can function to fix the multilayer laminate assembly 101, and the support bracket 110 can also be connected to a housing of the vending machine for fixing a top plate, a side plate, a back plate, and the like. The connectors 111 may connect the guides 103 to the deck assembly 101 to stabilize the guide structure of the guides 103 and the load bearing surface 102. The connecting members 111 may mount the guides 103 and the deck assemblies 101 on the support frames 110 to form a stable structure for transferring cargo.

In an optional scheme of this embodiment, the supporting frame 110 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes 112 arranged at intervals along the gravity direction, and the mounting holes are used for being connected with the connecting pieces 111, so that the positions of the floor assembly 101 and the guide pieces 103 can be adjusted according to the size of the cargo.

Referring to fig. 4, the plurality of mounting holes 112 spaced apart in the direction of gravity may be one or more rows, and particularly, for the lower deck assembly 101, the weight to be carried is greater, and the plurality of mounting holes 112 may be arranged in the horizontal direction to ensure reliable fixing of the deck assembly 101. The figures show a round hole and a square hole, the round hole can correspond to the round hole formed on the connecting piece 111 and is connected with the round hole through a fastening piece such as a bolt; the square hole corresponds to the clamping piece arranged on the connecting piece 111, and the clamping piece is clamped at the square hole, so that the fixing effect on the laminated assembly 101 is further increased.
