Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sorting device for flat mailings with at least one input station, in each case a mail sorting device and a subsequent transport device for transporting the singulated mailings 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.
  • a sorting device in which flat objects are transported by means of a channel-shaped, locally fixed feed device from the outside laterally into storage pockets. 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 A1 For arranging in a particular order, a solution has been known (EP 820 818 A1), which uses a buffer consisting of in a conveyor loop with at least two semicircular conveyor sections on a conveyor rotating storage pockets, each receiving a shipment and this on command in the can deliver the actual filing.
  • first all to be classified programs are housed in any order in the storage pockets of the cache. Then 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 trays are located along the straight sections of the conveyor below the storage pockets.
  • the end section of the transport means of the feed device is designed to be pivotable so that during the introduction of the respective consignment this end section is swiveled in substantially the same direction and speed as the moving storage bag and is swung back after being introduced.
  • 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.
  • sorting device EP 0 949 015 A2 having a plurality of input units, at least one mailing buffer memory with continuously circulating storage pockets, mailing containers as sorting end points which are filled from the lowest mail buffer and have an input buffer. and discharge device for consignment containers. It is possible to use fewer sorting endpoints than sorting destinations.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a sorting device with rotating storage pockets 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 mail container and to measure their levels can be reduced ,
  • 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 are transferred to a shipment container for unread programs.
  • 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 up to 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. As a result, the infeed and outfeed of the mail container can be realized with little effort.
  • controllable stationary actuators for opening the storage pockets are arranged along the transfer sections of the mailer buffer memory. 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 mailing stacks in the mail containers, the container is above the transport path after the transfer sections and before the device for feeding in and out of the mail container from the transport path arranged a sensor arrangement for determining the stack height.
  • a corresponding sensor had previously to be arranged at each terminal or a calculation of the stack height by means of the measured thicknesses of the individual consignments.
  • Each program buffer memory 1 consists of continuously arranged in a conveyor loop continuously arranged, controlled downwards by opening mechanism dischargeable storage pockets for receiving the programs in a standing position.
  • Each conveyor loop has two straight ones Transfer sections and between them two semicircular sections.
  • the storage pockets are laterally open to the outside, and at each semicircular portion of a conveyor loop is a loading station 7, are transported in the mailings individually through the side openings in the empty storage pockets.
  • the loading stations 7 receive the items one at a time from an input unit 2, in which the items are separated from stacks of items by means of a mail item 3, aligned in an alignment line 4 and then to process devices, such as an address reader 5 or a barcode printer 6 for applying an identification code, past be transported by means of a transport device 8 to the loading station 7.
  • process devices such as an address reader 5 or a barcode printer 6 for applying an identification code
  • a transport device 8 for applying an identification code
  • 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. Assuming that the diameter of the semicircular portions of the conveyor loops of the mailer storage 1 is 1 m, so after loading the storage bag would be available until their entry into the straight transfer section about 15 s.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif de triage qui comporte des collecteurs tampons d'envois (1) pourvus de poches de collectrices (10) qui tournent en une boucle de transport de façon à passer devant des stations de chargement (7). En dessous des sections de transfert droites des boucles de transport se trouvent des réceptacles à envois (12) servant de postes de triage, lesquels ont leur partie supérieure ouverte et tournent selon une trajectoire de transport. Dans ces réceptacles à envois (12), les envois (11) sont déchargés, conformément à leur adresse de destination lue, par ouverture commandée de la poche collectrice (10) respective, au moment où cette dernière se trouve dans la position correspondante au-dessus du réceptacle à envois (12) associé. Les vitesses de transport des collecteurs tampons d'envois (1) et des réceptacles à envois (12), ainsi que les longueurs des sections de transfert des collecteurs tampons d'envois (1) situées au-dessus de la trajectoire de transport des réceptacles à envois (12) sont déterminées de telle sorte que pendant la période au cours de laquelle une poche collectrice (10) traverse une section de transfert d'un collecteur tampon d'envois (1), chaque réceptacle à envois (12) s'est déplacé pour passer sous cette poche collectrice (10).
