Through the arrangement of the plurality of inclined channels 107, the articles can be distributed to different trolleys 103 for preservation through the plurality of inclined channels 107. Meanwhile, since the upper frame 101 and the lower frame 102 are detachably connected, when the upper frame 101 is detached, the upper frame 101, the lower frame 102, and the plurality of carriages 103 can be independently stored or transported, so that the storage space of the sorting apparatus 100 can be reduced, and the transportation cost of the sorting apparatus 100 can be reduced.

In detail, the number of the plurality of carts 103 may be arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the number of the plurality of sorting bays 104, and the number of the sorting bays 104 is larger than the number of the input/output lanes 107, such that a part of the plurality of carts 103 is configured to receive articles directly input into the sorting bays 104 and another part of the plurality of carts 103 is configured to receive articles directly input into the input opening 109. That is, the user can directly send the articles into the cart 103 at the corresponding position through the sorting grid 104 for storage, or send the articles into the cart 103 at the corresponding position through the inclined channel 107 for storage.

More specifically, in the present embodiment, in the process that the user sends the articles into the cart 103 at the corresponding position through the inclined passage 107 for storage, the articles sequentially pass through the input port 109, the output port 111, and the sorting grid 104 at the corresponding position and are then input into the cart 103 at the corresponding position for storage. That is, the user can put the articles into the cart 103 at the corresponding position directly through the sorting cell 104, or can put the articles into the cart 103 at the corresponding position indirectly through the sorting cell 104 after tilting the channel 107. The advantage of setting up like this lies in, the user can be directly through some letter sorting check mouth 104 that the distance is close carry article to corresponding dolly 103 in save, also can transport in corresponding dolly 103 through a letter sorting check mouth 104 again after the position of another part letter sorting check mouth 104 is long-range through a plurality of inclined passage 107 letter sorting again, and the user can stand all the time in the original place when delivering article, need not to walk and deliver to this letter sorting check mouth 104 department to can save time, guarantee the letter sorting efficiency.

Meanwhile, the number of the second carts 121 corresponds to the number of the second sorting gates 106, and is set to six. Also, the number of the inclined lanes 107 of the upper frame 101 corresponds to the number of the second sorting gates 106, and is set to six, so that each inclined lane 107 is provided with one second sorting gate 106, and one second cart 121 is provided below each second sorting gate 106. By the arrangement, when a user needs to deliver an article to the second sorting grid 106 which is relatively far away, the article can be delivered to the inclined channel 107 at the corresponding position, so that the article passes through the inclined channel 107 and the second sorting grid 106 at the corresponding position and then is output to the corresponding second trolley 121 for storage. Of course, in other embodiments, the number of trolleys 103 and sorting bays 104 may be selected as desired; meanwhile, the number of the trolleys 103 may also be less than or greater than the number of the sorting cells 104, and the like, and the embodiment is not limited.

The sorting apparatus 100 further includes a first fastening member 118, and the first fastening member 118 is configured to connect the upper and lower cross members 113 and 114 through the first and second holes 116 and 117, thereby achieving detachable connection of the upper and lower frames 101 and 102, and further enabling separation of the upper and lower frames 101 and 102 by detaching the first fastening member 118 from the first and second holes 116 and 117 during storage or transportation, thereby ensuring reliability and convenience of transportation thereof, reducing transportation costs, and reducing a space occupied thereby.

In detail, referring to fig. 6 again, the first hole 116 and the second hole 117 are through holes, the first fastener 118 includes a bolt 149 and a nut 148, and the bolt 149 is threaded with the nut 148 after passing through the first hole 116 and the second hole 117. Of course, in other embodiments, the first fastening member 118 may be a screw, one of the first hole 116 and the second hole 117 may be a threaded hole, and the other of the first hole 116 and the second hole 117 may be a through hole, so that the screw can be threaded through the through hole and the threaded hole.

In more detail, referring to fig. 6 again, in the present embodiment, the upper beam 113 is a C-shaped steel with an opening 119 facing downward, and the first hole 116 is opposite to the opening 119 of the C-shaped steel. Correspondingly, the lower cross member 114 is a square tube, the second hole 117 penetrates the square tube, and the second hole 117 faces the first hole 116.
