Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for filling and transporting containers in mail sorting machines according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to create a device for filling and transporting containers with flat mail items, with a high stack quality, in which a manual intervention for the further transport of the mail items from the issuing points of the sorting machine can be kept as low as possible.
  • FIG. 1 schematically shows a device according to the invention, with a conveyor 1 for empty containers 2 or full containers 4.
  • a conveyor belt or a roller system or a rail guide for containers with rollers can be used as the conveyor.
  • the containers 3 are brought into a loading position and locked there.
  • flat mail items with output devices 8 can be output from the transport device 7 into the containers.
  • the transport device 7 preferably consists of shrouds with a high feed speed, switches being provided as output devices.
  • stacking devices 5 are provided which dip into the container 3 in the loading position and interact with the container, so that a high stack quality is achieved. For this, z.
  • baffles, fences or similar means provided that improve the shipment. Baffles or similar are also used to reduce the speed of flat ones Programs intended to influence the center.
  • a stacking device is preferably assigned to each output device. Facilities of this type are e.g. B. from DE 39 22 045 known. The flat items are stacked upright or lying down. For filling, an empty container 2, which is in the conveying position on the conveying device for container 1, is brought into the loading position in which the stacking devices 5 are immersed in the container.
  • lifting or gripping mechanisms or robots 9 are provided, which are not shown in detail in the following, since they are self-evident for the person skilled in the art.
  • a container which is in the loading position can be lowered by the mechanism 9 so that it is again in the conveying position and can be conveyed by the transport device 1.
  • a container is simply placed on a conveyor belt. Accordingly, stacking takes place directly into the containers, a high stack quality being made possible by the stacking devices 5.
  • the empty containers are put over the stacking mechanism 5 from below.
  • the container is filled and then brought back into the conveying position so that the containers are conveyed by the conveying device.
  • oblique directions are also provided in principle.
  • the empty or full containers 2 and 4 are transported from the conveyor 1 to the dispensing devices. If a container which was in the loading position is to be brought back into a conveying position, it is positioned in a gap between empty containers of the conveying device 1. An empty container is then preferably placed in the free loading position. For this purpose, the containers are raised or lowered.
  • FIG. 2 shows an advantageous configuration of the device in which all the elements are arranged one above the other.
  • a gesture 10 is provided, in particular the transport device 7 and the stacking devices 5 wearing.
  • the conveyor device 1 for the flat mail items and the lifting or gripping mechanisms 9 are preferably also arranged on this frame 10.
  • FIG. 2 shows two sorting strands arranged side by side on a gesture, in which the flat mail items can be output to a front and a back.
  • FIG. 3 shows a further configuration, in which the configurations according to FIG. 2 are arranged one above the other several times, so that two levels are provided for conveyor systems for full and empty containers, two levels for containers in the loading position and two levels for transport devices for the flat items.
  • FIG. 4 schematically shows a further embodiment of the invention with an output on a front and a back.
  • the devices according to FIG. 2 or 3 can be provided as the sorting device.
  • the conveying device 43 for the transport of the containers is ring-shaped, a feed 44 of empty containers and a discharge of filled containers being provided.
  • the empty containers are preferably rotated in the conveyor 43.
  • containers or gripping mechanisms were provided for the transitions between the loading position and the conveying position, in which the containers are gripped or lifted from above and brought into the loading position.
  • these movements can also be carried out by robots or by surgeons. If necessary, the containers are then simply locked in the loading position.
  • position and filling status of the container are controlled by a controller.
  • the conveyor system can either be stopped briefly as soon as the container is in the appropriate position in the conveyor device relative to the loading position, or the conveyor device runs continuously and the container in question is stopped in the appropriate position by the gripping or lifting mechanism and then placed in the loading position.
