Definitions

  • the stacking conveyor 24 is constituted by a segment of an adjacent insertion belt 26 and by a stacking belt 27.
  • the stacking belt 27 extends partly between two insertion belts 26. sorting adjacent and partly between the insertion belt 26 and the corresponding packer 22.
  • the insertion belt 26 and the stacking belt 27 have a common segment in friction so that the driving of the insertion belt 26 can cause the stacking belt 27. Consequently, the direction of movement of the postal items P is the same in the conveyors 23 and 24, that is to say from left to right in the example of the figure 2 .
  • the speeds of the conveyors 23 and 24 are substantially identical for a postal item P to pass from one to another continuously.
  • On the figure 2 indicated by the arrow 31 the longitudinal direction of displacement of the stacking conveyor 24.
  • a postal delivery P on edge pinched in its lower part between the two belts 25 and 26 is transported along the sorting outlets 5.
  • the rotation of a switching flap 28 directs the shipment P to a conveyor d 24.
  • the mailpiece P is pinched in its lower part between the insertion belt 26 of an adjacent stacker and the stacking belt 27 to be inserted at the rear of the stack of mail items P .
  • the stacking belt forms a segment substantially perpendicular to a jogging wall 29 separating the adjacent sorting outlet packers.
  • the postal items P are thus stacked on edge one behind the other between a segment of the stacking belt 27 and a movable pallet 30 spring-biased, and pressed against the jogging wall 29.
  • the object of the invention is to overcome these disadvantages by providing a stacking device of simple design, low cost that is suitable for a wide range of mail.
  • the baffle forms an angle of about 30 ° with said longitudinal direction.
  • the pulley and said first deflector are arranged in such a way as to bend an upper part of the items.
  • the invention extends to a postal sorting machine comprising the stacking device.
  • the figure 5 illustrates a top view of a stacking device according to the invention.
  • the figure 7 schematically illustrates a partial side view of the stacking device according to the invention.
