Description

Die auf Postsendungen wie Briefen, Postkarten, Päckchen und dergleichen, als Kennzahl für einen Ort, einen Zustellbereich, ein Postfach oder einen Großempfänger anzugebenden, maschinenlesbaren Postleitzahlen, ermöglichen eine rasche maschinelle Verteilung der Post. Das Sortieren der ankommenden Postsendungen erfolgt beispielsweise mit Hilfe von steuerbaren Stückgutträgern, die in speziellen Beladeplätzen mit jeweils einer Postsendung beladen werden und diese Postsendung dann an einen der jeweiligen Postleitzahl zugeordneten Sortierbehälter oder ein entsprechendes Sortierfach abgeben. Da die Sortierbehälter oder Sortierfächer in verschiedenen Ebenen angeordnet sein können, müssen die an Fördereinrichtungen umlaufenden Stückgutträger gegebenenfalls auch verschiedene Höhenlagen überbrücken können. Nach der Übergabe der Postsendung an den zugeordneten Sortierbehälter oder das zugeordnete Sortierfach, können die leeren Stückgutträger beim Passieren eines Beladeplatzes erneut mit einer Postsendung beladen werden, vgl. DE-A-43 23 564. Bei der Übergabe des Postguts an die vorstehend beschriebene Sortiereinrichtung muß das auf einer ersten Fördereinrichtung, wie z.B. einem Bandförderer ankommende Postgut, gezielt und vorzugsweise einzeln an die mit relativ hoher Geschwindigkeit passierenden Stückgutträger abgegeben werden.The on mail items such as letters, postcards, packages and the like, as a key figure for a location, a delivery area, a mailbox or a bulk recipient, machine-readable postcodes, enable a quick machine Distribution of mail. Sorting the incoming Postal items are, for example, controlled General cargo carriers, each in special loading areas be loaded into a mail item and this mail item then to a sorting bin assigned to the respective zip code or hand in an appropriate sorting bin. There the sorting containers or sorting compartments in different levels can be arranged, the conveyors circulating general cargo carriers, if necessary, also various Can bridge high altitudes. After delivery of the mail item to the assigned sorting container or the assigned one Sorting compartment, the empty general cargo carriers can be passed of a loading place are loaded again with a mail item, see. DE-A-43 23 564. When delivering the mail to the sorting device described above must do this a first conveyor, e.g. a belt conveyor incoming mail, targeted and preferably individually to the General cargo carriers passing at a relatively high speed be delivered.

Der im Anspruch 1 angegebenen Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde, eine einfach aufgebaute Übergabeeinrichtung für Postgut zu schaffen, mit welcher das auf einer ersten Fördereinrichtung ankommende Postgut zuverlässig und schonend an umlaufende Stückgutträger einer Sortiereinrichtung abgegeben werden kann.The invention specified in claim 1 is based on the problem a simply constructed transfer device for mail to create with which on a first conveyor incoming mail reliably and gently to all around Delivered general cargo carrier of a sorting device can be.

Eine erfindungsgemäße Übergabeeinrichtung kann in öffentlichen Postämtern oder in den Hauspostzentralen großer Firmen zur Übergabe von Postgut an umlaufende Stückgutträger eingesetzt werden. Darüber hinaus kann eine erfindungsgemäße Übergabeeinrichtung aber auch beispielsweise in Lagersystemene oder Kommissionierautomaten für vergleichbare Aufgaben eingesetzt werden, bei welchen auf einer ersten Fördereinrichtung ankommendes, mit Kodierungen versehenes Stückgut an Stückgutträger einer zweiten Fördereinrichtung übergeben werden soll.A transfer device according to the invention can be used in public Post offices or in the home mail centers of large companies used to transfer mail to rotating general cargo carriers become. In addition, a transfer device according to the invention but also for example in storage systems or automated picking machines used for comparable tasks in which on a first conveyor Incoming, coded piece goods on piece goods carriers to be handed over to a second conveyor.

Der Erfindung liegt die Erkenntnis zugrunde, daß ein aus Förderband und zugeordnetem Andruckband bestehendes Übergabeorgan dann eine zuverlässige und schonende Übergabe des auf einer ersten Fördereinrichtung ankommenden Stückguts an umlaufende Stückgutträger ermöglicht, wenn der Abwurfbereich des Übergabeorgans ohne Bewegungskomponente in Querrichtung in Transportrichtung der Stückgutträger verfahrbar ist. Hierdurch können die Abwurfgeschwindigkeit und die Abwurfrichtung des Stückguts auf die Geschwindigkeit und die Aufnahmerichtung der umlaufenden Stückgutträger optimal abgestimmt werden.The invention is based on the finding that a conveyor belt and assigned pressure belt existing transfer device then a reliable and gentle handover of the on one first conveyor device arriving piece goods to circulating General cargo carrier enables if the discharge area of the Transfer device without movement component in the transverse direction in Transport direction of the general cargo carrier is movable. Hereby can drop speed and direction of the piece goods on the speed and the direction of pick-up the circumferential general cargo carrier can be optimally coordinated.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are in the subclaims specified.

Die Ausgestaltung nach Anspruch 2 ermöglicht durch eine Schwenkbewegung ein besonders einfaches Verfahren des Abwurfbereichs des Übergabeorgans in Transportrichtung der Stückgutträger und zurück.The embodiment according to claim 2 enables by Swiveling movement a particularly simple movement of the discharge area of the transfer device in the direction of transport of the General cargo carriers and back.

Die Ausgestaltung nach Anspruch 3 ermöglicht eine besonders schonende Übergabe des Stückguts an die umlaufenden Stückgutträger.The embodiment according to claim 3 enables a particularly gentle transfer of the piece goods to the rotating piece goods carriers.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und wird im folgenden näher beschrieben.An embodiment of the invention is in the drawing shown and is described in more detail below.

Die Zeichnung zeigt in stark vereinfachter schematischer Darstellung eine Übergabeeinrichtung für Stückgut. Diese Übergabeeinrichtung umfaßt ein insgesamt mit UO bezeichnetes Übergabeorgan, welches das auf einer ersten Fördereinrichtung FE1 mit der Geschwindigkeit v1 ankommende Stückgut S zwischen einem endlos umlaufenden Förderband FB und einem endlos umlaufenden Andruckband AB aufnimmt und an umlaufende Stückgutträger ST einer zweiten Fördereinrichtung FE2 abgibt.The drawing shows a highly simplified schematic representation a transfer device for general cargo. This transfer device comprises a transfer organ designated overall by UO, which on a first conveyor FE1 General cargo S arriving at speed v1 between one endlessly rotating conveyor belt FB and an endlessly rotating Pressure tape AB picks up and on circulating general cargo carriers ST delivers a second conveyor FE2.

Bei dem durch strichpunktierte Linien angedeuteten Stückgut S handelt es sich beispielsweise um Briefe, die verschiedene Formate aufweisen können und an einer in der Zeichnung nicht näher dargestellten Stelle vereinzelt und von oben her auf die erste Fördereinrichtung FE1 aufgegeben werden.In the case of the general cargo S indicated by dash-dotted lines for example, letters are different Can have formats and not on one in the drawing point shown in detail and from above the first conveyor FE1 be abandoned.

Das Förderband FB ist über mehrere Rollen geführt, von denen in der Zeichnung aber lediglich die beiden endseitigen Rollen RO1 und RO2 dargestellt sind. Das Andruckband AB ist ebenfalls über mehrere Rollen geführt, von welchen in der Zeichnung zwei vordere Rollen RO3 und RO4, eine als Umlenkrolle dienende Rolle RO5 und eine hintere endseitige Rolle RO6 dargestellt sind. Die beiden vorderen Rollen RO3 und RO4 sind auf einem Hebel H drehbar angeordnet, wobei dieser Hebel H seinerseits um eine senkrecht zur Zeichnungsebene verlaufende Drehachse DA schwenkbar ist. Die vordere Rolle RO1 des Förderbandes FB ist ebenfalls beweglich gelagert und wird durch die Kraft einer lediglich durch einen Pfeil F angedeuteten Feder gegen das Andruckband AB bzw. die Rolle RO4 gedrückt. Durch die geschilderte schwenkbare Anordnung der vorderen Bereiche von Förderband FB und Andruckband AB, kann der mit AW bezeichnete Abwurfbereich des Übergabeorgans UO um die Drehachse DA geschwenkt werden. Beim Abwurf des Stückguts S in einen mit der Geschwindigkeit v3 in Transportrichtung TR vorbeifahrenden Stückgutträger ST, kann somit der Abwurfbereich AW mit der Geschwindigkeit v2 geschwenkt werden, d.h. die Horizontalkomponente der Abwurfgeschwindigkeit vA des Stückguts S kann in Betrag und Richtung auf die Geschwindigkeit v3 der vorbeifahrenden Stückgutträger ST abgestimmt werden. Durch diese Abstimmung und durch die Vermeidung von quer zur Transportrichtung TR, d.h. senkrecht zur Zeichnungsebene verlaufenden Bewegungskomponenten der Abwurfgeschwindigkeit vA, wird eine besonders sichere und schonende Übergabe des Stückguts S an die umlaufenden Stückgutträger ST gewährleistet.The conveyor belt FB is guided over several roles, of which in the drawing, however, only the two end roles RO1 and RO2 are shown. The pressure tape AB is also led over several roles, of which in the drawing two front rollers RO3 and RO4, one as a deflection roller serving role RO5 and a rear end role RO6 shown are. The two front rollers are RO3 and RO4 arranged rotatably on a lever H, this lever H in turn around a perpendicular to the plane of the drawing Axis of rotation DA is pivotable. The front roller RO1 of the conveyor belt FB is also movably supported by the force of one indicated only by an arrow F. Spring pressed against the pressure band AB or the roller RO4. Due to the described swiveling arrangement of the front areas of conveyor belt FB and pressure belt AB, the one with AW designated discharge area of the transfer element UO around the axis of rotation DA be pivoted. When the general cargo S in one passing at speed v3 in the direction of transport TR General cargo carrier ST, thus the drop area AW can be pivoted at speed v2, i.e. the horizontal component the discharge speed vA of the piece goods S can be in the amount and direction of the speed v3 passing general cargo carrier ST can be coordinated. By this coordination and by avoiding cross-direction of transport TR, i.e. perpendicular to the plane of the drawing Motion components of the discharge speed vA, is a particularly safe and gentle handover of the General cargo S to the circulating general cargo carrier ST guaranteed.

Bei den vorstehend erwähnten Stückgutträgern ST der zweiten Fördereinrichtung FE2 handelt es sich um Komponenten einer Sortiereinrichtung für Postgut, deren Aufbau und Wirkungsweise beispielsweise in der DE-A- 43 23 564 beschrieben ist.In the case of the piece goods carriers ST mentioned above, the second Conveyor device FE2 are components of a Sorting device for mail, its structure and mode of operation is described for example in DE-A-43 23 564.
