Description

Weighing Conveyor Device {Scale Conveyor Apparatus}

The present invention relates to a weighing conveyor apparatus, and more particularly, to a weighing conveyor apparatus that can measure the weight of the baggage more quickly and precisely when transporting the conveyor even if the size of the baggage is large or large. .

Currently, the weighing conveyor apparatus used in the airport is divided into a weighing conveyor on which a passenger's baggage is placed and a transport conveyor for transferring baggage from the weighing conveyor. The lower part of the weighing conveyor is equipped with a sensor, measures the weight of the baggage, and transfers it through a transport conveyor.

However, if the passenger's baggage has a length longer than the length of the weighing conveyor, the baggage is placed not only on the weighing conveyor but also on top of the transport conveyor. That is, the weight of the baggage is applied to both the weighing conveyor and the transfer conveyor. Thus, a problem arises in that the weighing conveyor cannot accurately weigh the baggage. In addition, such a problem makes it difficult to grasp the total weight of the aircraft carrying the baggage, and thus it is not easy to secure fuel and runway lengths, resulting in safety problems.

On the other hand, in the case of a large number of passengers' baggage, the passengers are weighed by placing one of the baggage on the weighing conveyor and placing the next baggage on the weighing conveyor only after the weighing and transporting is finished. However, if there is a plurality of baggage, there is a problem that increases the waiting time of the passenger because the work to be weighed every day is repeated.

The present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned conventional problems, an object of the present invention is to measure the weight of the baggage upon transport according to the conveyor even if the size of the baggage is large or large, more precisely and precisely weighing In providing a conveyor apparatus.

In order to achieve the above object, the weighing conveyor apparatus according to the present invention comprises: a first base and a second base positioned continuously; A first drive motor formed inside the first base; A first conveyor belt driven by the first drive motor and exposed to an upper surface of the first base; A plurality of first sensors formed under the first base; A second drive motor formed inside the second base; A second conveyor belt driven by the second drive motor and exposed to an upper surface of the second base; And a plurality of second sensors formed under the first base and the second base.

The first sensor may be provided in plural to support a lower portion of the first base.

In addition, the second sensor may be provided in plural and may be disposed in a lower portion of the first base and the second base.

In addition, the second sensor may be provided in plural and may be positioned below the front end of the first base and both ends of the second base based on a moving direction of the baggage according to the first conveyor and the second conveyor.

In addition, the first sensor and the second sensor may be formed as a load cell.

In addition, a summing box may be further formed to be electrically connected to the second sensor to sum the measured values of the second sensor.

In addition, an indicator may be further connected to the first sensor and the second sensor to indicate the weight of the baggage positioned on the first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt.

In addition, the indicator is connected to the first sensor is a normal weighing indicator for displaying the weight of the baggage located on top of the first conveyor belt; And a plurality of weighing indicators connected to the second sensor to display the weight of the baggage positioned on the upper part of the first conveyor belt and the upper part of the second conveyor belt.

In addition, the plurality of weighing indicators may display the weight of the baggage formed on the upper portion of the first conveyor belt, the weight of the baggage formed on the upper portion of the second conveyor belt and the sum of the weights, respectively.

In addition, the first base and the second base may be formed by further including a lower base for forming a common unit to transfer the weight of the baggage to the upper portion of the second sensor.

As described above, in the weighing conveyor apparatus according to the present invention, when the size of the baggage is shorter than the first conveyor belt, the first sensor formed under the first conveyor belt measures the weight of the baggage, and the size of the baggage is first. When the baggage is longer than the length of the conveyor belt and positioned above the second conveyor belt, or when the number of the baggage is provided in plural numbers, the baggage using the second sensor formed on the lower part of the first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt. By measuring the weight of the baggage, the weight of the baggage can be precisely measured to reduce the weight burden of the aircraft and to reduce the waiting time of passengers with a large number of baggage.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings so that those skilled in the art can easily practice the present invention.

In addition, the second sensor 280 may be connected to the summing box 190 so that the measurement results of each of the second sensors 280 may be added.

Therefore, the second sensor 280 more precisely weighs the weight of the baggage even when the baggage exceeds the length of the first conveyor belt 160 and is located up to the second conveyor belt 260. Can be measured.

In addition, since the second sensor 280 may measure the weight at the lower portion of the first conveyor belt 160 and the second conveyor belt 260 when the baggage is provided in plural, at the airport Passenger waiting time according to the weighing of the baggage can be easily reduced.

Referring to FIG. 3, the normal weighing indicator 300 may include a display unit 310 in which the weighing result is displayed, and a key manipulation unit 320 for controlling a weighing conveyor apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention. The display unit 310 displays the weight of the baggage measured by the first sensor 180 in the case of normal weighing, that is, when the baggage is located only on the upper portion of the first conveyor belt 160.

Referring to FIG. 4, the plurality of weighing indicators 400 may include a display unit 410 on which a result of weighing is displayed, and a key operation unit 420 for controlling the weighing conveyor apparatus. The display unit 410 is a plurality of weighing, that is, when the baggage is located over the length of the first conveyor belt 160 to the top of the second conveyor belt 260 or when the baggage is provided in plurality, The weight of the baggage measured by the second sensor 280 is displayed. In addition, the plurality of weighing indicators 400 may respectively measure the weight A of the baggage measured at the bottom of the first conveyor belt 160 and the weight B of the baggage measured at the bottom of the second conveyor belt 260. The sum of the values.

Hereinafter will be described an example in which baggage is weighed through the weighing conveyor apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention.
