Description of the Related Art As a conventional transport sorting device for automatically sorting, for example, parcels according to a delivery place, transport slats are arranged in parallel between a pair of endless belts that run at front and rear positions of a frame extending in the transport direction. To form a transport surface, the transport slats can be moved in the longitudinal direction of each of the transport slats, and one of the transport slats can be transported by guiding a transport object placed on the transport surface. It comprises an extruding mechanism that pushes from one end to the other end and pushes it out to the required branching conveyor, the extruding mechanism attaching a guide member guided to the guide groove to the lower part, and a conveying surface to the upper part. Provided are a sliding member having a pressing piece for pressing the above-mentioned conveyed article, and a sliding contact piece attached to the sliding member and engaged with the conveying slat and sliding in the longitudinal direction thereof.

合があった。According to the above-mentioned conventional structure, the pressing piece for pressing the conveyed object in the direction orthogonal to the conveying direction has a relatively large weight, and this weight causes the forward movement of the chain belt. The upper side of the frame, which is the row direction, is added in the direction of the guide member, and the lower side of the frame, which is the backward direction of the chain belt, is added in the opposite direction to the load receiving rod. In the process of moving in the backward direction and in the process of moving from the backward direction of the chain belt to the forward direction, a collision noise is generated due to rattling that exists between the pushing member and the transport slat, and the collision noise is generated. However, there is an inconvenience that the noise occurs continuously because it occurs continuously for each transportation slat.

製の摺接部材を取付けて成るものである。In order to solve the above-mentioned inconvenience, the present application installs a conveying slat in parallel between a pair of endless belts running at the front and rear positions of a frame extending in the conveying direction. A transport surface is formed on each of the transport slats, and a transport object that is movable in the longitudinal direction and is placed on the transport surface is guided from one end of the transport slats by guiding the transport groove. It is equipped with an extrusion mechanism that pushes the other end to push it out to the required branch conveyor.
The pushing mechanism is attached to the sliding member, and a sliding member provided with a guide member guided to the guide groove portion on the lower portion, and a pressing piece for pushing the conveyed material on the conveying surface on the upper portion, Further, in a transport sorting device comprising a slide contact portion that engages with the transport slat and slides in the longitudinal direction thereof, a cushioning member is interposed between the slide contact portion and the instruction portion piece. Specifically, the transport slat is composed of two hollow load receiving rods provided with slits in the longitudinal direction of the lower surface, and the sliding member is formed in an upward U-shape. An upper portion of the rising piece intervenes in the load receiving rod through the slit, respectively, on the upper portion of the sliding portion piece, a cushioning member,

により吸収される。In carrying out the carried object, the carried object is first pushed out to the carrying surface composed of the carrying slats. In the process of pushing out, the information such as the delivery destination attached to the conveyed product is read and the length dimension of the conveyed product is recognized. Then, the transported object moves on the transportation surface along with the forward movement of the chain belt. The pushing mechanism moves in the longitudinal direction of the frame along with the running of the chain belt while being aligned along one side of the long side of the frame, that is, the rear end side, and in the process, the length dimension of the recognized load is met. Number of extruding mechanisms move from one end to the other end in the longitudinal direction of the conveying slat due to the guiding of the guide groove, and therefore, the action of the forward movement of the chain belt and the movement of the extruding mechanism causes the conveyed object to move. Is pushed out to the required branch conveyor selected by the delivery destination information.
The pushing mechanism moved in this way moves from the upper surface side to the lower surface side, that is, from the forward direction to the backward direction of the chain belt at the end position of the frame, and from the lower surface side to the upper surface side at the starting end position of the frame. That is, the cushioning member absorbs the noise caused by the rattling generated between the load receiving rod and the sliding contact piece, which is generated during the transition of the chain belt from the backward direction to the forward direction.

状態に復元する。Then, due to both the forward movement of the chain belts 17 and the movement of the pushing mechanism 38 by the pushing groove 28, the conveyed article A is pushed to the selected branch conveyor 18 while being pushed by the pushing piece 40. In the pushing mechanism 38 after pushing the conveyed material A, the tire piece 59 is guided by the idle groove 27 to move along the front position of the frame 1, and the pushed pushing mechanism 38 in the idle state moves to the frame 1. When it moves to the end position of the frame 1, it is guided again from the idle groove 27 to the traveling groove 26 through the return groove 29 and is aligned at the rear position in the longitudinal direction of the frame 1. In this state, the pushing mechanism 38 is reversed to the lower surface of the frame 1 and returns to the starting end position. Further, the point member 30 in which the required number of the pushing mechanisms 38 are guided to the pushing groove 28 is restored to the initial state.

The backlash generated between the inner surface of the load receiving rod 35 and the sliding contact piece 52, which occurs during the transition from the backward direction to the forward direction of the chain belts 17, 17 from the lower surface side to the upper surface side, is caused by the pushing mechanism 38. It is absorbed by the buffer member 49 interposed between the transport slat 33.

が良好に得られるなどの利点を有する。As described above, according to the present invention, the push-out mechanism moves in the process of shifting from the forward direction to the backward direction of the chain belt and in the process of shifting from the backward direction to the forward direction of the chain belt. The noise generated by the looseness existing between the load receiving rod and the load receiving rod can be absorbed by the cushioning member, so that the generation of the noise can be prevented. Particularly, according to the configuration of claim 2, the sliding contact piece and the sliding portion can be prevented. The shock absorbing member is surely blocked from the vibration by the cushioning member. Further, according to the configuration of the third aspect, since the rising piece is formed wide, there is an advantage that the vibration can be well absorbed. .
