The scanning device 30 is in communication connection with the control mechanism, and the control mechanism determines which cargo grid the parcel needs to be collected into according to the identification information on the parcel scanned and acquired by the scanning device 30, and controls the motorized roller 43 to drive the bearing table 42 to rotate when the parcel moves right above the corresponding cargo grid, so that the parcel falls into the corresponding cargo grid.

The specific action process of the hanging type falling-grid sorting equipment 100 for sorting the packages is as follows:

the guide-in table 20 conveys and guides the parcels to be sorted to the loading table 42 of the vacant suspension mechanism 40, and enables the side face of the parcels with the identification codes to face upwards; the linear motor drives the suspension mechanism 40 to continuously move along the loop track 10; when the hanging mechanism 40 moves to the position of the scanning device 30, the scanning device 30 scans the parcel on the bearing table 42, obtains the identification code of the parcel, and sends the identification code to the control mechanism through the communication mechanism 80; the control mechanism judges which goods grid the parcel needs to be allocated to according to the acquired identification code, and controls the electric roller 43 to drive the bearing platform 42 to rotate 90 degrees through the communication mechanism 80 when the suspension mechanism 40 where the parcel is located moves to the position right above the corresponding goods grid, and the horizontal state is changed into the vertical state to enable the parcel to fall into the corresponding goods grid; after the goods fall into the goods grid, the control module controls the electric roller 43 to drive the bearing platform 42 to rotate 90 degrees through the communication mechanism 80, the vertical state is changed into the horizontal state, and a new package to be sorted is waited to be conveyed to the bearing platform 42 of the hanging mechanism 40, so that the next sorting cycle is started.

If the scanning device 30 scans the current parcel to obtain the corresponding identification code (for example, the spherical piece is wrapped on the bearing table 42 and rolls to cause the side with the identification code not to face the scanning device 30), the control mechanism judges that the current parcel lacks the identification code, the collection mechanism 50 is provided with a falling lattice which is specially used for collecting the parcel with the missing identification code, and when the suspension mechanism 40 where the parcel with the missing identification code is located moves right above the falling lattice, the control mechanism controls the electric roller 43 on the suspension mechanism 40 to drive the bearing table 42 to rotate 90 degrees, so that the parcel falls into the falling lattice. For those packages lacking the identification code, they may be introduced again through the introduction station 20 onto the hanging mechanism 40 for re-sorting.

the wheel carrier is arranged on two sides of the top of the mounting part along the extension direction of the loop track,

the travelling wheels are uniformly distributed on two sides of the loop track and are arranged on the wheel carrier,

the two sides of the loop track are provided with walking wheel tracks matched with the walking wheels, the walking wheels are arranged in the walking wheel tracks and can walk along the extending direction of the loop track,

the guide wheels are uniformly distributed on two sides of the loop track, abut against the side edges of the loop track, are arranged on the wheel frame and are used for guiding the support to move along the loop track.

6. The hanging drop sort apparatus of claim 2,

wherein two adjacent suspension mechanisms are connected through a universal bearing and an elastic piece,

the universal bearing is connected with two adjacent suspension mechanisms and is positioned at one end of each suspension mechanism far away from the bearing table,

the elastic piece is connected with two adjacent suspension mechanisms and is positioned at one end, close to the bearing table, of the suspension mechanism.

7. The hanging drop sort apparatus of claim 2,

the hanging mechanism controls the parcels supported on the hanging mechanism to fall into the corresponding collecting mechanism according to the identification codes on the parcels scanned and identified by the scanning equipment,

the scanning device scans the identification code on the package to be sorted before the package is introduced into the suspension mechanism, or

The scanning device scans the identification code on the package to be sorted after the package is directed into the hanging mechanism and before the package falls into the collecting mechanism.

8. The hanging drop grid sorting apparatus of claim 7, further comprising:

a communication mechanism electrically connected with the rotary driving member,

a control mechanism electrically connected with the scanning device and the communication mechanism,

the control mechanism controls the rotary driving piece to drive the bearing platform to rotate from the horizontal state to the vertical state through the communication mechanism according to the identification code on the parcel scanned by the scanning device when the suspension mechanism moves above the corresponding collection mechanism, so that the parcel falls into the collection mechanism,

when the package falls down, the control mechanism controls the rotary driving piece to drive the bearing table to rotate from the vertical state to the horizontal state through the communication mechanism.

9. The hanging drop grid sorting apparatus of claim 7, further comprising:

a guiding-in table arranged near the loop track and used for conveying the parcels to be sorted to the hanging mechanism and enabling the side of the parcels with the identification codes to face upwards,

the scanning device is positioned to scan the identification code of the package on the suspension mechanism arbitrarily moved to a position opposite the scanning device.

10. The hanging drop grid sorting apparatus of claim 2, wherein:

wherein the collecting mechanism is a plurality of cargo grids or bag collecting bags which are sequentially distributed along the extending direction of the loop track,

the top of each cargo grid or each bag has an opening for receiving the falling package and the size of the opening matches the size of the carrier platform.
