In the present embodiment, the plurality of conveyor belts 141 are arranged in parallel at intervals, and each conveyor belt 141 is wound around the driving roller 143, so that all the conveyor belts 141 can be driven to move synchronously by one driving roller 143, which not only reduces the total cost of the sorting apparatus 100, but also is beneficial to reducing the total weight of the sorting apparatus 100.

Further, the conveying wheel 142 may be a deviation rectifying wheel, and the deviation of the conveying belt 141 may be prevented by using the deviation rectifying wheel as the conveying wheel 142, so that the conveying accuracy of the conveying belt mechanism 140 is improved. The rectification wheel is of an existing structure, so the rectification wheel is not explained herein.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the driving roller 143 is an electric roller, which has advantages of smaller volume and lighter weight, and therefore, the electric roller is used as the driving roller 143, which is beneficial to further reduce the total weight of the sorting apparatus 100.

In other embodiments of the present disclosure, the driving roller 143 is an unpowered roller, and accordingly, the conveyor belt mechanism 140 further includes a motor connected to the driving roller 143. That is, a motor can be used as a power source for the driving roller 143, and when the motor works, the driving roller 143 is driven to rotate, and the driving roller 143 further drives the conveying belt 141 to move.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the conveyor belt mechanism 140 further includes a tension roller 144 rotatably disposed on the turret 120, and each conveyor belt 141 is tensioned on the tension roller 144. The tension roller 144 is used to cooperate with a conveyor pulley set to control the tension of the conveyor belt 141.

Thus, the number of parts of the sorting device 100 can be reduced, the structure of the product can be simplified, and the product cost can be further reduced.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the driving mechanism 130 includes a driving motor 131 and a transmission assembly 132, the driving motor 131 is connected to the rotating frame 120 through the transmission assembly 132, and the transmission assembly 132 can transmit the rotation of the output shaft of the driving motor 131 to the rotating frame 120, so that the driving motor 131 can drive the rotating frame 120 to rotate.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the transmission assembly 132 may include a first gear 1321 and a second gear 1322, wherein the first gear 1321 is fixedly connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 131, the second gear 1322 is fixedly connected to the rotating frame 120, and the second gear 1322 is engaged with the first gear 1321. When the driving motor 131 works, the first gear 1321 is driven to rotate, and since the second gear 1322 is engaged with the first gear 1321, the first gear 1321 further drives the second gear 1322 to rotate, and the second gear 1322 drives the rotating frame 120 to rotate while rotating. Thus, the driving force of the driving motor 131 can be transmitted to the rotating frame 120 through the first gear 1321 and the second gear 1322.

Further, the diameter of the first gear 1321 is smaller than that of the second gear 1322, so that the rotation speed of the second gear 1322 is smaller than that of the first gear 1321 during the transmission of the transmission assembly 132, so that the transmission assembly 132 also has the function of a motor reducer.

In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the sorting apparatus 100 further includes a plurality of rollers 150 disposed on top of the fixed frame 110, each roller 150 being rotatably coupled with the fixed frame 110, axes of the rollers 150 being parallel to each other. The roller 150 functions to maintain the products in motion under the inertial force to facilitate movement of the products into and out of the sorter 100. Specifically, on the one hand, after the product is transferred to the sorting device 100, the product moves onto the roller 150 under the action of the inertia force and continues to move along the roller 150 until it falls onto the conveyor belt 141. On the other hand, during the process of the conveyor belt 141 delivering the products out of the sorting device 100, the products, after leaving the conveyor belt 141, move onto the rollers 150 and continue to advance under the effect of inertia until they completely leave the sorting device 100.

In this embodiment, the adjustable feet 160 are disposed at the bottom of the fixing frame 110, so that the requirement for the flatness of the ground where the sorting device 100 is located can be reduced, and even if the flatness of the ground is not good enough, the adjustable feet 160 can be adjusted, so that each adjustable foot 160 is in close contact with the ground, and the placing stability of the sorting device 100 is improved. Specifically, when the adjustable anchor 160 is adjusted, the adjusting nut 163 can be rotated by a wrench, and since the adjusting nut 163 and the screw 162 are fixedly connected, the adjusting nut 163 drives the screw 162 to rotate together, and since the screw 162 is engaged with the threaded hole at the bottom of the fixing frame 110, the engaging depth of the screw 162 in the threaded hole is changed while the screw 162 rotates, which means that the length of the portion of the screw 162 extending out of the threaded hole is changed. That is, the adjustable feet 160 are adjusted by adjusting the length of the portion of the screw 162 extending out of the threaded hole, that is, adjusting each adjustable foot 160 according to the leveling of the bottom surface, so that the base 161 can be in close contact with the ground by the length of the screw 162 of the adjustable foot 160 extending out of the threaded hole.

Embodiments of the second aspect of the present disclosure provide a sorting system, which includes a plurality of sorting devices 100 in any of the above embodiments.
