Definitions

  • the present invention relates to postal sorting equipment for sorting flat mail items comprising a postal sorting machine with a feed inlet in which the mail items are arranged in a stack on edge and a sorting conveyor in which the mail items mail are moved serially on edge to sorting outlets.
  • storage bins are used to recycle the mail items entering the machine.
  • These storage bins are conventional rectangular bins with an opening on the top which requires manual emptying of these into the feed inlet of the machine.
  • mail items are stored in a flat stack at the bottom of the storage bins. Each tray is turned over manually on a motorized belt which feeds the destacker of the machine.
  • the machine operator uses two retaining pallets mounted on sliding arms along the store.
  • the object of the invention is to reduce the handling of the machine operator in this equipment and also to increase the emptying rates of the storage tanks. and therefore the throughput of the sorting machine.
  • This equipment includes a postal sorting machine 1 with a feed inlet 2 (unstacker magazine) in which P mail items, more particularly large format flat mail items, are placed in a stack on edge.
  • a feed inlet 2 unstacker magazine
  • the sorting machine 1 also conventionally comprises a sorting conveyor 3, for example a sorting conveyor with pinch bands, in which the mail items P are moved in series on edge towards sorting outlets 4 where they can be stored in flat stack in storage bins 5 with opening on top. It is considered here that the storage bins 5 illustrated in the figures are placed in the sorting outlets but the invention can extend to equipment in which there is a manual transfer of the content of the sorting outlets to storage bins 5 illustrated in the figures.
  • the sorting conveyor 3 is shown very partially but it is understood that it can include a very large number of sorting outlets 4.
  • a tray exchanger 7 has been illustrated which is crossed by a conveyor 7A of storage trays 5 and a conveyor 7B of shuttle trays 8.
  • the figures 3 and 4 show in perspective a shuttle tray 8. This is generally in the form of a V-shaped dihedron for storing mail items P on edge.
  • the shuttle tray 8 comprises an inclined bottom 8A, a rear wall 8B, a lateral flank 8C and a front opening 8D.
  • the inclined bottom 8A is formed here by four parallel ribs 8A1-8A2.8A3.8A4 which extend in the longitudinal direction D of the container 8 obliquely to the flat base 8E of the container.
  • the base 8E has a certain constant thickness between the front and the rear of the container in the longitudinal direction D, which makes it possible to provide the container with two handling handles 8F at the front and at the rear of the container in the 'thickness of the base.
  • the upper surface of the base is parallel to the lower surface of the base, the upper surface extending between the ribs 8A1 and 8A2, the ribs 8A2 and 8A3, and the ribs 8A3 and 8A4.
  • the handles 8F also open into the upper surface of the base 8E between the ribs 8A2 and 8A3.
  • the ribs 8A1 to 8A4 have a downwardly sloping profile (about 15 °) relative to the upper surface of the base 8E when going from the opening 8D (at the front) towards the rear wall 8B of the shuttle tray which makes that the inclined bottom 8A of the tank which is constituted by the top of the oblique ribs 8A1 to 8A4 is located above the upper surface of the base 8E and leaves a space for the insertion of a conveying fork as explained below.
  • the rear wall 8B of the shuttle tray 8 is in the form of comb teeth and comprises teeth 8B1 to 8B4 which are in the continuity of the ribs 8A1 to 8A4 and which have a face facing the inside of the tray which is oblique (about 15 ° of inclination) with respect to the base of the tank and one side facing the outside of the tank which is perpendicular to the base of the tank.
  • the lateral flank 8C here connects the rib 8A1 to the tooth 8B1 to close the V-shaped dihedron.
  • the end of the ribs 8A1 to 8A4 forms a sort of stop which projects slightly towards the top of the shuttle tray.
  • the inner surface of the rear wall 8B at the free end of the teeth 8B1 to 8B4 forms a sort of stop which projects towards the top of the tank perpendicular to the upper surface of the base 8E.
  • the conveyor 7A is designed to transport storage bins 5 filled with mail items P stacked flat from a loading point (for example a sorting outlet of the sorting machine 1) to the exchanger 7 and to transport empty storage bins from the exchanger to an empty bins storage point.
  • a loading point for example a sorting outlet of the sorting machine 1
  • the direction of movement of the storage tanks 5 in the conveyor 7A is indicated by the arrows C1
  • the conveyor 7B is connected to the feed inlet 2. It is suitable for bringing empty shuttle trays 8 from the feed inlet 2 to the exchanger 7 and transporting the shuttle trays 8 filled with mail items. pile on edge from the exchanger 7 to the feed inlet 2. The direction of movement of the shuttle trays 8 in the conveyor 7B is indicated by the arrows C2.
  • the shuttle trays 8 have a greater storage capacity than that of the storage trays 5.
  • FIGS. 5A to 5J illustrate the different manipulations of the storage tank 5 to transfer its contents to a shuttle tank 8, here by turning it around 180 ° - 15 ° to 25 ° (angles of the figure 6B ) from the storage bin 5.
  • the storage bin has its opening facing upwards.
  • a manipulator arm (absent in the figures) covers it with a plate 9.
  • the manipulator arm removes the plate 9 (cover) so that the mail items P fall into the bottom of the shuttle tray 8 by positioning in a pile on edge.
  • the manipulator arm replaces the empty storage bin 5 on the conveyor 7A for recycling the storage bin, for example in one of the sorting outlets of the sorting machine.
  • the Figures 5A to 5J illustrate a transfer of the contents of a storage bin 5 to a turnip bin te 8 already loaded with mail items P.
  • the shuttle bin 8 has a capacity triple that of a storage bin 5 and can therefore receive the contents of three storage bins 5 transported consecutively on the conveyor 7A.
  • the bottom of the shuttle tank 8 during transfer is preferably oriented obliquely to the horizontal (for example with an angle between 15 and 25 °) and vertical (for example an angle between 5 and 15 °) as illustrated on the Figures 6A and 6B to create a jogging effect by gravity against the lateral flank 8C of the stack of mail items on edge P, the start of the stack being in abutment against the rear wall 8B.
  • the shuttle tray 8 has its rear wall 8B which is arranged under the front opening 8D.
  • the shuttle tray 8 filled with mail items P leaves the exchanger 7, it is repositioned on the conveyor 7B so that its rear wall 8B is in front of its front opening 8D.
  • the conveyor 7B is connected at the inlet on the same horizontal plane as the motorized conveyor belt 2C of the destacker of the feed inlet 2 but it is connected at the outlet below the horizontal plane of the destacker magazine .
  • the unstacking plate 10 of the unstacker of the sorting machine has been illustrated, and also a stack retaining pallet 11 which is used to advance the stack of mail articles P towards the unstacking plate.
  • the feed store 2A has a motorized sole formed here by parallel motorized belts spaced apart by a sufficient distance to pass the ribs 8A1 to 8A4 and the teeth 8B1 to 8B4 of a shuttle tray 8.
  • the feed magazine 2A of the destacker is in the form of a fork with here three teeth 2B which are each constituted by a motorized belt which extends horizontally towards the conveyor 7B.
  • the bottom of the store's 2B tine fork extends generally up to the unstacking plate 10.
  • the supply magazine 2A also includes a conveying section formed by a motorized conveyor belt 2C which is arranged below the motorized teeth and which is movable in vertical elevation, the space between the teeth 2B and the conveyor belt corresponding to the thickness of the base 8E of a shuttle tray 8.
  • the shuttle tray 8 filled with mail items P on edge is straddled by the teeth 2B of the destacker magazine which are inserted under the stack of mail items between the ribs 8A1 to 8A4 while the base 8E of the shuttle tray comes to rest on the motorized conveyor 2C.
  • the shuttle tray 8 is moved against the unstacking plate 10 or, where appropriate, behind a stack of mail items already present in the food store as shown in the Figures 7A to 7C .
  • the retaining plate 11 is initially placed at the rear of the stack of mail items P already engaged in front of the unstacking plate 10.
  • the shuttle tray 8 arrives at the rear of this stack of mail items, the rear wall 8B in front.
  • the machine operator manipulates the retaining pallet and places it at the rear (facing the front opening of the shuttle tray), of the retained in the direction of advancement of the stack in front of the unstacking plate.
  • the Machine Operator controls the descent of the 2C motorized belt down, for example by pressing a control button not shown.
  • the motorized belt 2C has been illustrated in an intermediate descent position.
  • the mail items P are retained on edge by the teeth 2B of the store.
  • the conveyor 7B arrives in and leaves the exchanger 7 on two levels offset vertically.
  • the empty shuttle tray 8 has left the motorized conveyor belt 2C which can then automatically rise to take charge of a new shuttle tray 8 filled with mail items.
  • the shuttle bin preferably has a storage capacity for mail items which is greater than the storage capacity of a storage bin, for example 3 times greater, and the bin exchanger is then arranged to transfer several storage bins in the same shuttle bin which allows a higher throughput of around 20,000 mail items per hour.
