Diverting and converging system based on multi-directional sorting wheels

Abstract

The invention discloses a diverting and converging system based on multi-directional sorting wheels. The diverting and converging system comprises a main conveying line, wherein the main conveying line is connected with a friction driving type sorting wheel conveying line in a matched mode, the output end of the sorting wheel conveying line is connected with a first branch conveying line and a second branch conveying line which are parallel, and in a converging state, axes of the sorting wheels in the sorting wheel conveying line are parallel to driving rollers in the sorting wheel conveying line, wherein the driving rollers drive the sorting wheels to rotate through friction; and in a diverting state, the axes of the sorting wheels in the sorting wheel conveying line keep included angleswith the driving rollers, and the conveying direction of the sorting wheel conveying line can be switched between facing the first branch conveying line and facing the second branch conveying line. According to the scheme, the characteristic that the sorting wheels of the sorting wheel conveying line can freely turn is fully utilized, so that diverting or converging operation is realized, objectsare not damaged in the diverting process, the movement of the objects is not hindered in the converging process, and the combination of the high safety and the high efficiency are effectively realized.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of logistics equipment, in particular to a dividing and merging system based on a multi-directional sorting wheel. Background technique [0002] Logistics refers to the planning, implementation, and management of raw materials, semi-finished products, finished products, or related information through transportation, storage, distribution, etc., to meet the needs of customers at the lowest cost. process. Logistics is a system that controls raw materials, finished products, finished products, and information. It starts from supply and reaches the end consumers through the transfer and ownership of various intermediate links in order to achieve the clear goals of the organization. [0003] The sorting process includes conveying items of different types or different destinations in a certain area through a conveyor line to different conveying lines to realize the sorting operation, and different areas of items belonging to the ...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] Conventional merging equipment arranges multiple branch conveying lines on both sides of a main conveying line. This structure can effectively achieve merging, but it cannot perform diversion operations, and the application flexibility is not good.

[0005] For example, the Chinese patent application with the patent application number 201810486074.9 discloses a rotary storage automatic diversion table for logistics packaging, and specifically discloses a device that realizes diversion through the swing of a distribution plate. On the one hand, the hitting process will inevitably cause certain damage to the goods, reducing the safety of transportation, and the swing inertia of the suspended distribution board will continue to affect the motor; on the other hand, due to the distribution Due to the existence of the dial plate and the sorting wheel, they occupy a certain entrance area of ​​the main transmission channel when they merge, and when the item moves from the diversion transmission channel to the entrance of the main transmission channel, if the item is close to the diversion transmission When the inner side of the channel, it is easy to come into contact with the distribution plate and the distribution sorting wheel. At this time, the distribution plate and the distribution sorting wheel will hinder the conveying of the items and slow down the speed of the items, thereby reducing the conveying efficiency.
