Definitions
- the invention relates generally to a machine for sorting flat objects on edge, comprising sorting outlets for stacking sorted flat objects, each equipped with a stacking actuator and at least one sliding plate. having a front face against which the flank of flat objects slides during the stacking of flat objects.
- This type of sorting machines is widely known and used to sort and stack, on edge, flat objects such as for example postal items.
- These sorting machines comprise a plurality of sorting outlets at each of which the postal items are stacked according to a predetermined sorting plan.
- the postal items thus treated can be very varied in size, materials and weight and for example have a weight ranging from a few grams to 350 grams.
- Each stack of postal items is then unloaded manually by an operator who places it for example in a storage bin.
- the operation of the sorting machine thus requires the permanent activity of at least one operator to empty the sorting outlets and replenish the storage bins.
- stacking on edge of postal items generates significant noise levels making the working conditions of the operators difficult near the sorting outlets.
- the publication JP 57 049 854 describes, as prior art, a stacker of postal objects comprising a sliding plate along which the The surface of the flat objects slides and a mechanical absorption plate, perpendicular to the sliding plate, and against which the edge of flat objects abuts during stacking.
- the mechanical absorption plate is designed to absorb shocks from contact with the edge of flat objects.
- This mechanical absorption plate is fixed to the frame of the stacker which it is separated by a soundproofing plate for absorbing the noise generated by the impact of flat objects against the mechanical absorption plate.
- This stacker is noisy.
- it is proposed a stacker to be less noisy and having a mechanical absorption plate offset from the frame and able to deform under the impact of the singing of flat objects. This solution is however not optimal and the sound level remains high.
- the object of the invention is to overcome these disadvantages by providing a sorting machine whose noise level is reduced, effectively and sustainably while maintaining good compactness and good ergonomics.
- the subject of the invention is a machine for sorting flat objects on edge, comprising sorting outlets for stacking the sorted flat objects, which are each equipped with a stacking actuator and with less a sliding plate having a sliding front face against which the flank of the flat objects slides during the stacking of flat objects, characterized in that it comprises damping and noise reduction means for cooperating with the front face to absorb the noises, including the noise generated by the flat objects during stacking, at least a portion of the damping and noise reduction means being provided on and along said sliding plate, the front face of the sliding plate having at least a first perforation zone provided with a plurality of first orifices passing through the sliding plate and forming at least partly the damping and reduction means it.
- the means damping and noise reduction also allow to absorb the internal noise of the sorting machine, for example the noise generated by the circulation of flat objects in the sorting machine.
- the idea underlying the invention is to integrate damping and noise reduction means to existing equipment of a sorting machine.
- the arrangement of the damping and noise reduction means combined with the sliding plate thus makes it possible to reduce the sound level while not hampering the work of the operators and by not causing any risk of premature deterioration of these damping means. and noise reduction.
- the damping and noise reduction means act as effective sound absorption means.
- the first perforation zone extends over the entire surface of the front face of the sliding plate
- the sliding plate has a rear face opposite to the front face and lined with a layer of absorbent material forming part of the damping and noise reduction means;
- the layer of absorbent material is superimposed on the first area of perforations
- the stacking actuator is of bucket wheel type and comprises a hub provided at the rear of the sliding plate and which extend at least two sets of axially offset curved lugs, the lugs being able to receive the objects. plates during stacking, the sliding plate having at least two slots allowing the passage of the lugs, the first area of perforations being provided at least between the slots;
- the sorting machine comprises a cowling plate provided above the sorting outlets and arranged to cover at least part of the sliding plates, the cowling sheet having second zones of perforations provided between two consecutive sliding plates and partly forming the means of damping and noise reduction.
- Figure 1 is a schematic top view of a sorting machine according to the invention.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 are perspective views, respectively slightly from above and slightly from below, of a part of the sorting machine according to the invention, at the level of the sorting outlets, equipped with sliding plates provided with zones of perforations of which only part of each is illustrated;
- Figure 4A is a front perspective view of a sorting outlet slip plate of the sorting machine according to a first embodiment of the invention and the layer of absorbent material before assembly;
- FIG. 4B is a view similar to that of FIG. 4A for a second embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 5 is a dorsal perspective view of one of the sliding plates of Figures 4A or 4B and the layer of absorbent material assembled.
- the sorting machine 1 comprises successively a storage magazine 100 of flat objects, a unstacker 1 10 able to depilate and serialize the flat objects flat, a conveyor 120 flat objects, a address decoding system 130 flat objects and a plurality of sorting outlets 2 at which flat objects (not shown), such as for example postal items, are stacked.
- the flat objects are conveyed on edge by conveyor belts 3 of endless belt type and guided towards one or other of the sorting outlets 2 by substantially vertical sliding plates 4, along the sliding front face 40 of which the flank of the flat objects slides.
- These sliding plates 4 have shapes and sizes well known in the field of sorting machines and not detailed beyond what directly concerns the invention.
- Each sorting outlet 2 comprises a stacking actuator 5 type bucket wheel capable of stacking flat objects.
- Each stacking actuator 5 comprises a hub (symbolized by the axes A) provided at the rear of the corresponding sliding plate 4 and which extend several series of curved pins 6a-6d distributed along the axis A
- the stacking actuator 5 comprises four series of lugs 6a-6d, two series of lugs 6a, 6b lower and adjacent to each other, these series being provided opposite the path of the feet of the lugs. flat objects, and two sets of lugs 6c-6d, higher, these series being distant from each other and distributed over the height in the middle part of the sliding plate 4.
- the lugs 6a 6d are able to receive, one after the other, flat objects at the corresponding sorting outlet 2 and to accompany their movement during stacking.
- the sliding plate 4 has slots 7 therethrough, provided opposite series of lugs 6a-6d and allowing the passage of the lugs 6a-6d through the sliding plate 4 to accommodate the flat objects flowing in front of the sliding plates 4.
- the sliding front face 40 of the sliding plate 4 comprises a first perforation zone 8 provided with first circular orifices passing through the sliding plate 4.
- this first zone perforations 8 extends over the entire surface of the sliding plate 4.
- the particular arrangement of the first perforation zone 8, superimposed on the sliding front face 40, allows optimal acoustic absorption of noise.
- the first perforation zone 8 extends over a limited zone located between the two slits 7 provided in the middle part of the front face 40.
- the rear face 41 of the sliding plate 4 is lined with a layer of absorbent material 13 (visible in FIGS. 4 and 5), for example a foam layer RESORBSON S 20 F PUN, this layer having, for example, a thickness of 20 mm.
- the layer of absorbent material 13 has a shape and dimensions substantially similar to those of the sliding plate 4 carrying it so as to cover the largest rear surface without exceeding it.
- the layer of absorbent material 13 is thus arranged so as not to be in the direct passage of the flat objects and not to risk being damaged.
- the layer of absorbent material 13 covers the first orifices of the first perforation zone 8 which allows the layer of absorbent material to further attenuate the noise passing through the first orifices.
- the particular arrangement of the layer of absorbent material 13, superimposed on the sliding front face 40, allows optimum acoustic absorption of noise.
- the sorting machine 1 comprises a cowling sheet 1 1 (visible in FIGS. 2 and 3) at least partially covering the sliding plates 4. Between two sliding plates 4, the cowling sheet 1 1 comprises second perforation zones 12.
- the second perforation zones 12 are preferably discontinuous with each other, which makes it possible to maintain the rigidity of the cowling sheet 1 1.
- Each second zone of perforations 12 comprises, for example, a plurality of second circular orifices passing therethrough.
- the noises in particular those generated by the circulation of the flat objects, are largely absorbed by the orifices of the first and second perforation zones. 8, 12 and the absorbent material layer 13.
- the first and second perforation zones 8, 12 and the absorbent material layer 13 thus serve effective sound absorption means.
- the working conditions of the operators are thus greatly improved.
- the first and second perforation areas 8, 12 are provided so as not to hinder the actions of the operators. The ergonomics and compactness of the sorting machine 1 are thus preserved.
