Description

Divertor for Transferring Conveyor}

More particularly, the present invention relates to a diverter which is provided in a conveyor for conveying a logistics to switch the direction of conveyance of the logistics. More specifically, the present invention can flexibly and easily change the direction of conveyance of the logistics in accordance with demand, To a diverter for a logistics conveying conveyor that can transfer logistics at high speed and simplify overall structure and switching operation while facilitating disassembly and replacement operations in case of equipment damage and equipment failure.

Generally, a conveyor device for conveying goods is a device for continuously conveying and conveying various kinds of conveyed objects, such as a belt type, a body recognition type, and a roller type, in a warehouse, a courier company and a field handling various kinds of logistics.

These conveyor devices for transporting goods are classified according to kinds and sizes in various kinds of logistics places, and they are stored in other places and sent to a desired place, or goods are transported in order to store them in a certain place for a certain time Transport and transport.

That is, when the conveyor such as a belt, a roller, a chain or the like is operated by the operation of the conveying device for conveying the goods, the worker places the goods on the upper surface of the conveying table which rotates and operates, And conveyed and conveyed to the worker side located on the other side of the conveyor apparatus.

However, since the conveying device for conveying the material is rotated from one side to the other side, that is, from the starting point to the ending point of the conveying device in one direction, the same kind of material is selected and transferred or the various kinds of materials are conveyed There is a problem that work efficiency and productivity due to the logistics sorting work are deteriorated because the worker has to perform sorting work for each kind at the end point of the apparatus.

In addition, when the operator carries out the sorting operation for each kind of the logistics at the end point of the conveying device for conveying the goods, it is difficult to efficiently classify the logistics, and the inefficient sorting operation is inefficient.
