Definitions

  • the invention relates to postal sorting equipment comprising a sorting machine in which letter-type mail items or other flat postal items are sorted according to one or more sorting passes, for example as during the preparation of the postman's tour. .
  • the mail items sorted in the sorting outlets of the machine according to a first sorting pass are then transported in storage bins to the feed inlet of the machine for a first sorting pass. new sorting pass.
  • the sorted mail items are retrieved in stack on edge in conventional four-sided crate-type storage bins and open on top. Storage bins loaded with mail items are stored in a precise order on cart-style transit shelves.
  • the unstacker operator then moves the carts loaded with bins to the feed inlet of the sorting machine.
  • the feed inlet of the sorting machine is provided with an unloading device with a feed magazine comprising a storage floor on which the mailpieces are placed in stack on edge.
  • the sole of the feed magazine may comprise a belt-type conveyor belt or several parallel belts to automatically move the stacked mail items to the unstacker.
  • the Unloader Operator picks the bins filled with mail items one by one, places each end of the store, picks the mail items out of the bin and places these mail items on the floor of the food store.
  • the mail items placed on the hearth are thus conveyed stack on edge by the conveyor belt for example to the unstacking device which serializes the mail items to perform the second sort pass.
  • the mail items directed to the sorting outlets are therefore stored again in storage bins.
  • the bins loaded with articles are then moved by the unstacking operator for example to an evacuation zone so that one or more factors can retrieve the sorted mail items and perform their tours.
  • the document US-2005/0077217 shows postal sorting equipment including a postal sorting machine with an unstacker and a food store in which mail items are stacked on edge to be unstacked by the unstacker.
  • the equipment further includes storage bins for storing the mail items and bringing them into the feed magazine with bins having grooves open on one side and means for inserting into a groove of the tray.
  • the document US 8,172,498 describes a device comprising a tray support rotatably mounted on a first axis, able to tilt the storage bin stored thereon.
  • a clamp type holding means is also rotatably mounted about a second axis, capable of retaining stacked mail items contained in the tray.

  • the idea underlying the invention is therefore to use storage bins having an open and grooved bottom shaped as a tray of a pallet transport goods with one or openings under the tray to receive the teeth of a front loading fork.
  • the second floor of the store is offset in height from the first floor of the store and the first floor of the store plays the role of the loading fork.
  • the first floor of the store therefore has a free end overhanging above the second floor of the store so that when a tray filled with stacked mail items is moved on the second floor towards the unstacking member , the first part of sole then inserts into the groove or grooves of the tray under the stack of mail items.
  • This stack of mail items can then be removed from the tray by a relative movement between the first sole portion and the second sole portion of the feed magazine.
  • the invention therefore allows an automatic and simple removal of mail items from a storage bin in the feed store of a postal sorting machine while keeping the mail items singing stack on the floor of the store.
  • the invention also extends to a method for loading a mail item supply store from a postal sorting machine with storage bins filled with stacked mail items, characterized in that comprises the step of frontally inserting a first floor portion of the store that overhangs a second floor portion of the store on which the tray rests, said mail items then resting on edge on the first floor portion.
