Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for sorting containers with a sorting unit, which is arranged between a supply path leading to the container and a plurality of discharge paths, wherein the sorting unit has a pivotally mounted about an axis adjusting device with a guide surface for guiding the container in the direction of the predetermined discharge path.
  • a device for sorting lying on a conveyor belt transported container which can be used for example in reverse vending machines.
  • the sorting device has a drive axis extending essentially parallel to the conveying direction of the containers.
  • the drive axis sorting arms are rotatably connected, which include a in the effective range of the sorting device incoming container on both sides with distance.
  • the sorting arms convey the containers to one side or the other from the conveyor belt.
  • the disadvantage here is that the containers can be sorted into only two different storage containers. For example, if the containers are to be distributed into four fractions via four discharge lines, two sorting devices arranged in series must be provided. This increases the costs. On the other hand, there is an increased need for space, which is lost, for example retailers for the storage of goods or their sales presentation.
  • a sorting device for a reverse vending machine with a tubular sorting unit is known to be placed in the sorting container on a conveyor belt lying.
  • the tubular Sorting unit is rotatably mounted about a drive axis provided perpendicular to the conveyor belt.
  • the container can be fed to one of three provided discharge paths, which have an angular position of 90 °, 180 ° and 270 ° with respect to the container feeding conveyor belt.
  • the disadvantage here is that the containers can be divided into a maximum of three fractions. The division into four or more fractions requires a series connection of a plurality of sorting devices, resulting in drawbacks in terms of installation space and costs.
  • the sorting process is very time consuming, since the lateral removal of a container requires a twofold rotation of the sorting unit required. The throughput is therefore very limited, and valuable time in the return process is lost.
  • Object of the present invention is to develop a sorting device such that a plurality of containers can be distributed in a small space in a short time in a plurality of fractions.
  • the invention in conjunction with the preamble of claim 1, characterized in that the adjusting device of the sorting unit comprises a main actuator, which has at least two guide surfaces, so that the container in response to a rotational position of the main actuator to the predetermined discharge path is feasible, and that the sorting unit on the other comprises an adjustable auxiliary actuator which is coupled to the main actuator via a coupling unit such that the main actuator and the auxiliary actuator can be brought into a Zu effetsposition to each other, in which the container is guided along the guide surface of the main actuator and the guide surface of the auxiliary actuator in the direction of a first discharge path, and that the main actuator and the Hilfs-Stelleiement are brought into a mutually Ausassemblesposition in which the container between the Main actuator and the Hil Fs-adjusting element is guided in the direction of a second discharge path.
  • the particular advantage of the invention is that containers can be distributed by means of a single sorting unit into a plurality of fractions.
  • the core idea of the invention is in this case to couple a plurality of control elements in their movement in such a way that alternative sorts for the containers can be predetermined. Due to the coupling of the rotational movement of a main actuator and an auxiliary actuator, the container can be quickly fed to one of several discharge paths with little effort.
  • the positioning of the main control element and the auxiliary control element in this case is alternately dependent, so that a high reliability results in the sorting of the container and unforeseen switching states are avoided.
  • the coupling unit comprises a control gate element and a linkage for bringing the main actuating element and the auxiliary actuating element from the feeding position into the reversing position and back.
  • the control gate element is rotatably connected to the main actuator.
  • the main actuating element has a first guide surface and the second guide surface of the same connecting third guide surface.
  • the control gate element is shaped in such a way that the main actuating element and the first auxiliary actuating element in the feed position assume a first sorting working position relative to each other, in which the container is in contact with the first guide surface of the main actuating element and the guide surface of the first auxiliary Adjusting element is guided in the direction of the first discharge path, that the main adjusting element and the first auxiliary actuating element in the position of avoidance to each other occupy a second sorting position, in which the container is guided by the operative in the third guide surface of the main actuating element between the same and the first auxiliary actuator in the direction of the second discharge path, that the main actuator and a second auxiliary actuator in the Zuassemblesposition to each other occupy a third sorting position in that the container is guided from the in operative position second guide surface of the main actuator and a guide surface of the second auxiliary actuator in
  • a container in the sorting device can be fed to one of a total of four discharge paths.
  • the sorting device is thereby constructed particularly compact and is advantageously used in retail.
  • the two auxiliary control elements have a double function. First, they are gate or valve for opening and closing the second and fourth discharge path. On the other hand, they serve as a guide surface for the containers when they are in a closing position obstructing the second and fourth discharge paths.
  • the guide surfaces of the first and second auxiliary actuating elements extend the guide surface predetermined by the guide surface of the main actuating element, via which the container is guided in the direction of the first or the second discharge line.
  • the control cam element designed as a cam disk has a first recess and a second recess, wherein the main actuating element and the first auxiliary actuating element can be brought into the first recess into the deflecting position by engaging a coupling element, and wherein Main adjusting element and the second auxiliary actuating element are engageable with each other by engaging the coupling element in the second recess of the avoidance position, wherein the container depending on the rotational position of the main adjusting element different discharge paths can be fed.

  • designing the control gate element as a cam disk is inexpensive.
  • the main actuating element is triangular in shape and has three guide surfaces, which form three sides of a triangle.
