Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sorting device for flat mail items with at least one input station, in each case one mail item singulator and one subsequent mailer for transporting the singulated mail to process devices, such as e.g. Reader, barcode printer, passing to each have a loading station of a mail buffer, the mailer buffer consists of several circulating in a conveyor loop, moving past the loading stations storage pockets, which are loaded in the loading stations with the shipments.
  • process devices such as e.g. Reader, barcode printer
  • EP 0 608 161 A1 discloses a sorting device in which flat objects are transported laterally from a storage device into a storage pocket by means of a channel-shaped, locally fixed delivery device. These circulating in a closed loop storage pockets are moved horizontally past the feeder and the consignments fall then by targeted opening of flaps according to the sorting rule in sorting container underneath.
  • the consignments in the feeder device must have a very high transport speed, which can lead to damage when the consignments in the container are decelerated, or the speed of the storage pockets is very low or the containers are stationary during the transfer silent, which means a reduction in throughput of the machine.
  • EP 820 818 AI uses a temporary storage consisting of in a conveyor loop with at least two semi-circular F ⁇ rderabroughen on a conveyor rotating storage pockets, each receiving a shipment and this on command in the actual filing can give again.
  • first all to be classified programs are housed in any order in the storage pockets of the cache.
  • the items are removed from the storage pockets of the buffer and transferred to the shelves that they are in the latter in the order to be produced.
  • the open-topped shelves are located along the straight sections of the conveyor below the storage pockets.
  • the end section of the transport means of the feeder is pivotable so that, during the transfer of the respective consignment, this end section is swiveled in substantially the same direction and speed as the moving storage pocket and is swung back after infiltration.
  • the throughput of these sorting devices is limited by the throughput of the circulating storage pockets.
  • An increase in throughput can theoretically only be achieved by increasing the speed and / or reducing the pitch of the transport system of the storage pockets. But this is as described (shot into the storage pockets) only very limited possible.

It is possible to use fewer sorting endpoints than sorting destinations.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a sorting device with circulating Speichertas.chen that deliver controlled shipments according to the read destination addresses to sorting stations, which has a higher throughput and with the effort for automatic change of the consignment containers and to measure their Fill levels can be reduced.
  • the sorting device can have a plurality of mail item storage bins, each with a continuously circulating conveyor belt, arranged behind one another and moving past one or two loading bins. Below the straight transfer sections of the conveying loops of the mailing buffer or storage buffer are located in a transport path moving, continuously rotating, open-topped mail container as the destination addresses or destination address groups associated Sortiertstellen. In the consignment containers, the items are unloaded according to their read destination addresses by controllably opening the respective storage bag at the time when this bag is in the appropriate position above the associated consignment container.
  • the container transport path has at least one infeed device for empty consignment containers and at least one outfeed device for filled consignment containers.
  • the transport speeds of the mailer buffers and the mailer containers and the lengths of the transfer sections of the orbits of the mailer buffers arranged above the transport path for the mail containers for loading the mail containers are set such that, in the time span, a memory pocket is a transfer section of a mail buffer passes through each mailing container has moved under this storage bag. Due to the new principle: -The consignment containers are transported to the consignments- it is possible to increase the throughput without increasing the transport speeds by means of parallelization with a flexible arrangement. It is thus possible to significantly reduce the speed of the storage pockets, thereby increasing the time available to read the destination addresses until reaching the first transfer section.
  • these storage pockets advantageously pass through a defined number of transfer sections and if the destination addresses could not yet be read during this time, these shipments become a shipment container for unread programs slammed.
  • the storage pockets are open at the side and are guided with the open sides laterally past the end portions of the transport devices. As a result, the transport direction from the input station and the shipment orientation can be maintained right into the storage pocket.
  • the transport path for the mail item container has at least two narrow finger bands running at a fixed distance and for transporting the mail item containers into or out of the transport path, liftable transport rollers are arranged laterally from the transport path and between the finger bands. The largest direction component during insertion or removal runs perpendicular to the transport direction of the transport path. This allows the in and out of the
  • controllable stationary actuators for opening the storage pockets are arranged along the transfer sections of the mail item buffer memories. At the end of the transfer sections, a closing element is provided in each case.
  • the container In order to advantageously determine the height of the consignment stacks in the consignment containers, the container is positioned above the transport path after the transfer sections and before the device for feeding in and out the consignment containers from the transport container.

  • a transport device 8 At each semicircular portion of the conveyor loops of the mail item storage 1 shipments are introduced into the storage pockets, ie the system has 6 input units 2 and loading stations 7.
  • Below the rotating storage pockets open-topped mail containers are moved as sorting points also continuously circulating on a transport path 9. This is done so that the consignment containers are transported directly under all straight transfer sections of the mail item buffer memory 1 with the same conveying direction as the storage pockets, ie the transport path runs meandering here.
  • the transport speed of the mail container is set so that each mailing container is moved through under each storage bag during its passage through a transfer section.
  • the speed of the storage pockets is therefore relatively low (eg 0.1 m / s) compared to the mail containers (eg 1 m / s), which has a favorable effect on the safe operation of the input units and the loading stations.

  • Another advantage is that no longer mailing paths are needed after the address reader to provide the time needed to determine the address. If it is assumed that the diameter of the semicircular sections of the conveyor loops of the mail item buffer store 1 is 2 m, then after the loading of the storage pocket up to its entry into the straight transfer section, about 15 seconds would be available.

  • inclined backward storage pockets 10 of the program buffer memory 1 run in comparison to the mail containers 12 at a relatively slow speed.
  • the number of storage pockets 10 required is determined by the throughput of the mail sorting device 3 and the time for a complete container circulation plus possibly. necessary process times for the determination of the sorting target. This ensures that each item 11 is held in the item buffer memory 1 until the item 12 associated with the destination address and sorting container 12 passes through the pocket 10.
