Description

本発明は、メインラインコンベヤで搬送されて来る荷物を、メインラインコンベヤと直交して設けられたサブラインコンベヤに迅速かつ正確に仕分けることができる浮き出し式ソータに関するものである。   The present invention relates to a raised sorter that can quickly and accurately sort a load conveyed by a main line conveyor into a sub-line conveyor provided orthogonal to the main line conveyor.

従来の浮き出し式ソータを利用した荷物仕分けラインの典型例(特許文献1参照)の概略図を図1に示す。図1において、上下方向に走っているのがメインラインコンベヤ1であり、メインラインコンベヤ1に直交して左右方向に走っているのがサブラインコンベヤ2であり、メインラインコンベヤ1とサブラインコンベヤ2の直交部に設けられているのが浮き出し式ソータ3である。この浮き出し式ソータ3は、図1〜4からわかるように、サブラインコンベヤ2のいずれかの方向(図1の左又は右方向)に荷物を引き渡すための複数の巻き掛け搬送体4と、それらの巻き掛け搬送4の間に設けられ、荷物を下流のメインラインコンベヤ(図1の下方向)に引き渡すための搬送ローラ5と、巻き掛け搬送体4のベルトを昇降フレーム5に載せて上昇又は下降させるための空気バネ(又はウェイト式)式の昇降装置6と、上昇又は下降時の巻き掛け搬送体4のベルトの変位分を吸収するためのテークアップ7とを備えている。   FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of a typical example of a luggage sorting line using a conventional raised sorter (see Patent Document 1). In FIG. 1, the main line conveyor 1 is running in the up-down direction, the sub-line conveyor 2 is running in the left-right direction orthogonal to the main line conveyor 1, and the main line conveyor 1 and the sub-line conveyor 2 A raised sorter 3 is provided at the orthogonal portion. As can be seen from FIGS. 1 to 4, the raised sorter 3 includes a plurality of wrapping conveyance bodies 4 for delivering a load in any direction (left or right direction in FIG. 1) of the subline conveyor 2, Provided between the wrapping and transporting 4, the transporting roller 5 for delivering the cargo to the downstream main line conveyor (downward in FIG. 1) and the belt of the wrapping and transporting body 4 are raised or lowered on the lifting frame 5. And an air spring (or weight type) lifting device 6 for taking up and a take-up 7 for absorbing the displacement of the belt of the wrapping and conveying body 4 when it is raised or lowered.

実際の動作では、上流のメインラインコンベヤ1から下流のメインラインコンベヤ1に荷物を引き渡したい場合は、浮き出し式ソータ3の巻き掛け搬送体4のベルトは図3のように下降させた状態にして、荷物を巻き掛け搬送体4に接触させずに搬送ローラ5上に載るようにし、搬送ローラ5によって荷物を下流のメインラインコンベヤ1に引き渡し、一方、上流のメインラインコンベヤ1からサブラインコンベヤのいずれかの方向(左右方向)に荷物を引き渡したい場合は、浮き出し式ソータ3の巻き掛け搬送体4のベルトは図4のように上昇させた状態にして、荷物を巻き掛け搬送体4上に載るようにし、予め決められた巻き掛け搬送体4の仕分け方向に従って荷物を左右のサブラインコンベヤ2のいずれかに引き渡すようになっている。   In actual operation, when it is desired to deliver the cargo from the upstream main line conveyor 1 to the downstream main line conveyor 1, the belt of the wrapping carrier 4 of the raised sorter 3 is lowered as shown in FIG. The baggage is placed on the conveyance roller 5 without being brought into contact with the wrapping conveyance body 4, and the conveyance roller 5 delivers the package to the downstream mainline conveyor 1, while any of the upstream mainline conveyor 1 to the subline conveyor When it is desired to deliver the package in one direction (left-right direction), the belt of the wrapping conveyance body 4 of the raised sorter 3 is lifted as shown in FIG. Thus, according to a predetermined sorting direction of the wrapping conveyance body 4, the package is delivered to one of the left and right subline conveyors 2.

従来の浮き出し式ソータは、巻き掛け搬送体4のベルトの上昇又は下降の動作を空気バネ式の昇降装置で行うととともに、テークアップ7でベルトの緊張を吸収しながら巻き掛け搬送体4のベルト部分のみを上昇又は下降させているため、長期間使用していると、膨張を繰り返す空気バネや緊張を繰り返すベルトが劣化しやすく、迅速で正確な巻き掛け搬送体の上昇又は下降の動作を長期間保持することができないという問題があった。また、昇降装置の駆動をエアシリンダ式や電磁ソレノイド式で行っているものも従来存在するが、動作が緩慢で停止位置が不正確であり、多量の荷物の高速仕分けには適さない問題があった。   The conventional lift-out sorter performs an ascending / descending operation of the belt of the wrapping conveyance body 4 with an air spring type lifting device and absorbs the tension of the belt by a take-up 7 while the belt of the wrapping conveyance body 4 Since only the part is raised or lowered, the air spring that repeats expansion and the belt that repeats tension are likely to deteriorate when used for a long time, and the operation of raising or lowering the wrapping carrier quickly and accurately is prolonged. There was a problem that it could not be held for a period. In addition, there is a conventional device that uses an air cylinder type or electromagnetic solenoid type to drive the lifting device. However, the operation is slow and the stop position is inaccurate, which is not suitable for high-speed sorting of large quantities of luggage. It was.

以下、本発明の浮き出し式ソータを図面を参照しながら説明するが、本発明はこれらに限定されるものではない。   Hereinafter, the raised sorter of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

図5は、本発明の浮き出し式ソータを利用した荷物仕分けラインの概略図を示す。図5において、左右方向に走っているのがメインラインコンベヤ11であり、メインラインコンベヤ11に直交して上下方向に走っているのがサブラインコンベヤ12であり、メインラインコンベヤ11とサブラインコンベヤ12の直交部に設けられているのが浮き出し式ソータ13である。この浮き出し式ソータ13は、図5〜8からわかるように、サブラインコンベヤ12のいずれかの方向(図5の上又は下方向)に荷物を引き渡すための複数の巻き掛け搬送体14と、それらの巻き掛け搬送体14の間に設けられ、荷物を下流のメインラインコンベヤ11(図5の右方向)に引き渡すための搬送ローラ15と、巻き掛け搬送体14を支持するための昇降フレーム16と、巻き掛け搬送体14を昇降フレーム16を載せて上昇又は下降させるための昇降装置17とを含んでいる。   FIG. 5 shows a schematic diagram of a luggage sorting line using the raised sorter of the present invention. In FIG. 5, the main line conveyor 11 is running in the left-right direction, the sub-line conveyor 12 is running in the vertical direction perpendicular to the main line conveyor 11, and the main line conveyor 11 and the sub-line conveyor 12 A raised sorter 13 is provided at the orthogonal portion. As can be seen from FIGS. 5 to 8, the raised sorter 13 includes a plurality of wrapping conveyance bodies 14 for delivering a load in any direction (upward or downward in FIG. 5) of the subline conveyor 12, and A conveyance roller 15 provided between the wrapping conveyance body 14 and for delivering the cargo to the downstream main line conveyor 11 (right direction in FIG. 5); a lifting frame 16 for supporting the wrapping conveyance body 14; An elevating device 17 for raising or lowering the winding carrier 14 on the elevating frame 16 is included.

本発明の浮き出し式ソータの昇降装置17は、図7〜9からわかるように、昇降フレーム16の上昇又は下降を駆動するモータ18と、モータ18の回転運動を直線往復運動に変換するための手段19と、前記直線往復運動を昇降フレーム16の上昇又は下降運動に変換するための手段20とを含んでいる。モータ18は、従来公知のモータを適宜使用することができるが、正確で迅速な動きを行なえるサーボモータ、インバータ制御付きのインダクションモータが好ましく使用される。本発明の浮き出し式ソータは、このように昇降フレーム16(巻き掛け搬送体14)の昇降の駆動にモータを使用しているので、高速サイクル運動が可能であるとともに停止位置が正確である。また、昇降速度や昇降ストローク等の制御が容易で、長期間の使用の耐久性が高い。   As shown in FIGS. 7 to 9, the lifting / lowering device 17 of the raised sorter according to the present invention includes a motor 18 that drives the lifting and lowering of the lifting frame 16, and a means for converting the rotational motion of the motor 18 into a linear reciprocating motion. 19 and means 20 for converting the linear reciprocating motion into an ascending or descending motion of the lifting frame 16. As the motor 18, a conventionally known motor can be used as appropriate, but a servo motor capable of performing accurate and quick movement and an induction motor with inverter control are preferably used. Since the raised sorter according to the present invention uses a motor for driving up and down of the elevating frame 16 (wrapping conveyance body 14) as described above, high-speed cycle motion is possible and the stop position is accurate. In addition, the elevating speed and elevating stroke are easily controlled, and the durability for long-term use is high.

モータ18の回転運動を直線往復運動に変換するための手段19としては、従来公知の様々な方法を採りうるが、例えば、図9の19で示すような方向変換レバーを使用することができる。この手段では、モータ18の回転軸に同心で回転円盤が取り付けられ、その回転円盤の端部には力伝達棒の一方の端が連結され、力伝達棒の他方の端は回転自在に水平に固定された方向変換レバー19の一方の端部に連結されており、これによってモータの回転運動を直線往復運動に変換する。   As the means 19 for converting the rotational motion of the motor 18 into a linear reciprocating motion, various conventionally known methods can be adopted. For example, a direction changing lever as shown by 19 in FIG. 9 can be used. In this means, a rotating disk is attached concentrically to the rotating shaft of the motor 18, one end of the force transmitting rod is connected to the end of the rotating disk, and the other end of the force transmitting rod is rotated horizontally. It is connected to one end of the fixed direction changing lever 19, thereby converting the rotational motion of the motor into a linear reciprocating motion.

この直線往復運動を昇降フレーム16の上昇又は下降運動に変換するための手段20としては、同様に従来公知の様々な方法を採りうるが、例えば図7〜9で示すような傾斜スライド板20と、その上に載り、昇降フレーム16と共に動く昇降ローラ21とを使用することができる。この手段では、方向変換レバー19の他方の端部に上述とは別の力伝達棒の一方の端が連結され、力伝達棒の他方の端は、水平方向に動きかつ傾斜面を持つ傾斜スライド板20の端部に連結され、傾斜スライド板20の傾斜面には昇降ローラ21が回転自在に載っており、これによって方向変換レバー19の直線往復運動が傾斜スライド板20の直線往復運動として伝達され、この直線往復運動が傾斜スライド板20の傾斜面上で回転自在に動く昇降ローラ21の上昇又は下降運動に変換される。そして、昇降ローラ21の上昇又は下降によって昇降フレーム16は上昇又は下降し、それに伴ない巻き掛け搬送体14も上昇又は下降する。このとき、浮き出し式ソータの搬送ローラ15は上昇も下降もせず、一定の高さに保持される。   As the means 20 for converting this linear reciprocating motion into the ascending or descending motion of the elevating frame 16, various conventionally known methods can be similarly employed. For example, an inclined slide plate 20 as shown in FIGS. It is possible to use a lifting roller 21 which is placed thereon and moves with the lifting frame 16. In this means, one end of a force transmission rod different from the above is connected to the other end of the direction changing lever 19, and the other end of the force transmission rod moves in the horizontal direction and has an inclined slide having an inclined surface. The up-and-down roller 21 is rotatably mounted on the inclined surface of the inclined slide plate 20 and is connected to the end of the plate 20, whereby the linear reciprocating motion of the direction changing lever 19 is transmitted as the linear reciprocating motion of the inclined slide plate 20. Then, this linear reciprocating motion is converted into an ascending or descending motion of the elevating roller 21 that moves freely on the inclined surface of the inclined slide plate 20. Then, as the elevating roller 21 is raised or lowered, the elevating frame 16 is raised or lowered, and accordingly, the winding conveyance body 14 is also raised or lowered. At this time, the conveying roller 15 of the raised sorter is not raised or lowered and is held at a certain height.

荷物仕分けラインにおける浮き出し式ソータの実際の動きを図7及び図8で説明する。この荷物仕分けラインは、図10に示すように、メインラインコンベヤ11の搬送方向の前後に2つの浮き出し式ソータが設けられており、メインラインコンベヤ11の上流側の浮き出し式ソータの巻き掛け搬送体はサブラインコンベヤ12の一方の側のみに荷物を引き渡し、下流側の浮き出し式ソータの巻き掛け搬送体はサブラインコンベヤ12の他方の側のみに荷物を引き渡すようになっている。図7は、上流側及び下流側の浮き出し式ソータの巻き掛け搬送体14が下降した状態を示したものであり、従って浮き出し式ソータに到着した荷物は搬送ローラ15上に載り、搬送ローラの駆動により荷物を下流のメインラインコンベヤ11に引き渡すようになっている。この状態では、昇降ローラ21は傾斜スライド板20の傾斜面の最下位にあるようにモータ18が制御される。図8は、上流側の浮き出し式ソータの巻き掛け搬送体14が上昇した状態を示し、従って、上流側の浮き出し式ソータに到着した荷物は巻き掛け搬送体14上に載り、上流側の巻き掛け搬送体14の予め決められた搬送方向に従って荷物をサブラインコンベヤ12の一方に引き渡すようになっている。この状態では、上流側の昇降ローラ21は傾斜スライド板20の傾斜面の最上位にあるようにモータ18が制御される。荷物をサブラインコンベヤ12の他方に引き渡したい場合は、同様の方法で下流側の浮き出し式ソータの巻き掛け搬送体14のみを上昇させればよい。   The actual movement of the raised sorter in the package sorting line will be described with reference to FIGS. As shown in FIG. 10, the baggage sorting line is provided with two raised sorters before and after the main line conveyor 11 in the conveying direction. Delivers the package only to one side of the sub-line conveyor 12, and the downstream conveyor of the raised sorter delivers the package only to the other side of the sub-line conveyor 12. FIG. 7 shows a state in which the wrapping and conveying body 14 of the upstream and downstream raised sorters is lowered. Therefore, the cargo that has arrived at the raised sorter is placed on the conveying roller 15 and the driving of the conveying rollers is performed. Thus, the package is delivered to the main line conveyor 11 downstream. In this state, the motor 18 is controlled so that the elevating roller 21 is at the lowest position of the inclined surface of the inclined slide plate 20. FIG. 8 shows the state in which the upstream lifting sorter winding carrier 14 is lifted, and therefore, the cargo arriving at the upstream lifting sorter is placed on the winding carrier 14 and the upstream winding A package is delivered to one of the sub-line conveyors 12 in accordance with a predetermined conveyance direction of the conveyance body 14. In this state, the motor 18 is controlled so that the up-and-down lifting roller 21 is at the top of the inclined surface of the inclined slide plate 20. When it is desired to deliver the cargo to the other side of the sub-line conveyor 12, it is only necessary to raise only the winding carrier 14 of the raised sorter on the downstream side by the same method.

本発明の浮き出し式ソータは、図10に示すような荷物仕分けラインだけでなく、図11に示すような荷物仕分けラインにも適用することができる。図11に示す荷物仕分けラインでは、一つの浮き出し式ソータしか設けられておらず、浮き出し式ソータの巻き掛け搬送体の回転方向を正逆自在に変更できるようになっている。これによって、一つの浮き出し式ソータでサブラインコンベヤのいずれの方向にも荷物を引き渡すことができる。   The raised sorter of the present invention can be applied not only to a package sorting line as shown in FIG. 10 but also to a package sorting line as shown in FIG. In the luggage sorting line shown in FIG. 11, only one raised sorter is provided, and the rotation direction of the wrapping and conveying body of the raised sorter can be changed freely forward and backward. As a result, a single raised sorter can deliver packages in either direction of the sub-line conveyor.

本発明の浮き出し式ソータは、巻き掛け搬送体が上昇又は下降するが、特に上昇時に荷物を巻き掛け搬送体上に載りやすく案内するために、ガイド板又はガイドローラを上流側の巻き掛け搬送体の上部縁にわたって設けることが好ましい。ガイド板の例としては、図7〜9,12の22で示す板状部材が挙げられ、ガイドローラの例としては、図13の23で示すフリーローラが挙げられる。ガイド板22又はガイドローラ23の設置によって、浮き出し式ソータの巻き掛け搬送体上への荷物のスムーズな搬送が可能となるとともに動作ミスによる荷物と巻き掛け搬送体の衝突を緩和する。複数の浮き出し式ソータが並んで設置される場合は、ガイド板22又はガイドローラ23は、図13に示すように、各浮き出し式ソータの上流側の巻き掛け搬送体の上部縁にわたって設けることが好ましい。例えば図12のガイド板22の場合、上側の図では、上流側の巻き掛け搬送体が上昇しているが、荷物は上流側のメインラインコンベヤのプーリーの回転とガイド板22によって巻き掛け搬送体上に案内されてスムーズに載り、下側の図では、下流側の巻き掛け搬送体が上昇しているが、浮き出し式ソータ間の駆動ローラの回転とガイド板22によって巻き掛け搬送体上に案内されてスムーズに載る。図13のガイドローラ23の場合も図12と同様に、荷物は巻き掛け搬送体上に案内されてスムーズに載ることができる。   In the raised sorter of the present invention, the wrapping conveyance body rises or descends. In particular, in order to guide the load easily on the wrapping conveyance body when it is raised, a guide plate or a guide roller is provided on the upstream wrapping conveyance body. Preferably, it is provided over the upper edge of the. Examples of the guide plate include a plate-like member indicated by 22 in FIGS. 7 to 9 and 12, and examples of the guide roller include a free roller indicated by 23 in FIG. 13. By installing the guide plate 22 or the guide roller 23, it becomes possible to smoothly transport the load onto the winding transporter of the raised sorter and to reduce the collision between the load and the winding transporter due to an operation error. When a plurality of raised sorters are installed side by side, the guide plate 22 or the guide roller 23 is preferably provided over the upper edge of the wrapping conveyance body on the upstream side of each raised sorter as shown in FIG. . For example, in the case of the guide plate 22 in FIG. 12, the upstream wrapping conveyance body is raised in the upper diagram, but the load is wrapped around the rotation of the pulley of the main line conveyor on the upstream side and the guide plate 22. Guided upward and smoothly placed. In the lower figure, the downstream wrapping conveyance body is raised, but the guide roller 22 guides the wrapping conveyance body by the rotation of the driving roller between the raised sorters. Has been smooth. In the case of the guide roller 23 shown in FIG. 13 as well, as shown in FIG.

上記の説明では、本発明の浮き出し式ソータの典型例を示したが、昇降装置のモータの回転運動を最終的に昇降フレームの上昇又は下降に変換するための手段は本発明の目的を達成できる限り、従来公知の様々な手段を採ることができる。また、本明細書で言及しなかった従来公知の技術の追加・変更・組み合わせ等は本発明の目的を損なわない限り、本発明の範ちゅうに属するものである。   In the above description, a typical example of the raised sorter of the present invention has been shown. However, means for finally converting the rotational motion of the motor of the lifting device into the lifting or lowering of the lifting frame can achieve the object of the present invention. As long as it is possible, various conventionally known means can be adopted. Further, additions, changes, combinations, and the like of conventionally known techniques not mentioned in the present specification belong to the category of the present invention as long as the object of the present invention is not impaired.

本発明の浮き出し式ソータは、巻き掛け搬送体の上昇又は下降の駆動源にモータを使用し、かつそのモータの回転運動を昇降フレームの上昇又は下降運動に適切に変換できるので、荷物を長期間にわたって迅速かつ正確に仕分けすることができ、極めて有用である。   The raised sorter according to the present invention uses a motor as a drive source for raising or lowering the wrapping conveyance body, and can appropriately convert the rotational movement of the motor into the raising or lowering movement of the lifting frame. Can be quickly and accurately sorted, and is extremely useful.
