Definitions

  • the present invention relates essentially to a sorting device with at least two Sorting cells arranged one above the other each for receiving a Sorted goods, a horizontal loading level assigned to the sorting cell and with a driving unit, on which the sorting cells are attached, for moving the sorting cells from the respective loading level to a horizontal one assigned to the sorting cell Discharge plane.
  • Sorting devices for carrying out sorting tasks are So-called sorters, known, which are controlled by a sorting Transport the loading level to a specific discharge level.
  • the sorters point to this usually units that act as a driving unit in a guidance system, for example a rail system.
  • a sorting cell for example a tilting bowl or a horizontal one Conveyor belt attached as a so-called cross belt.
  • high-performance sorting systems are known in which several sorting cells are arranged one above the other on a driving unit. The vertical distance between two superimposed cells then essentially corresponds the vertical distance and level of the loaders and the Sorting destinations.
  • Such sorting targets are, for example, levels of a shelf system in which the goods to be sorted should be classified. So with the known high-performance sorting systems for example with three sorting cells arranged one above the other a drive unit take place on three levels, and the items to be sorted are then also delivered to the sorting targets in these three levels. Loading level and Discharge levels are assigned to each other.
  • Sorting devices with the possibility of changing levels are also known.
  • a drive unit places a piece of sorted goods on one level and can move it through a corresponding one
  • Lifting mechanism that can be moved to different levels in a controlled manner is to give up in several levels.
  • the invention has for its object to a sorting device create, with a simple structure, the distribution of sorted goods on several levels allowed.
  • a sorting device has at least two essentially one above the other arranged sorting cells, each of at least one piece of sorted goods can accommodate a loading device. Furthermore, the invention Sorting device on a drive unit to which the sorting cells are attached and which move the sorting cells from the respective loading device to a discharge level can. According to the invention, the vertical distance between two is now one above the other arranged sorting cells equal to the vertical distance between two superimposed arranged loading levels and equal to the vertical distance between the top and the lower level of at least a first and a second pair one above the other arranged discharge planes, and the two sorting cells so spaced with the vertical distance, which remains the same, together from the level one level pair to the level of another level pair.
  • Two sorting cells arranged one above the other are preferably exactly two pairs stacked discharge planes (with the distance of the sorting cells between their respective upper and lower levels), and so is the lifting height of the sorting cells which can be moved together vertically, preferably the same as the vertical one Distance between the pairs of levels.
  • these sort cells each between the level of an upper assigned horizontal discharge level and a lower assigned horizontal discharge plane.
  • a particularly preferred simple structure results if the ones arranged one above the other Discharge planes are vertically equally spaced from each other and the vertical spacing of the sorting cells mounted one above the other on the drive unit is twice the vertical distance between discharge levels. So for one certain number of evenly spaced discharge levels only exactly half the number of sorting cells needed, each between the levels a first assigned discharge level and the level of a second to the first neighboring one assigned discharge level are movable.
  • the drop levels can be levels of a shelf system, for example in its Aisles, for example, of the drive unit along rails which, for example, under the Ceiling of a hall accommodating the system are movable.
  • the Sorting cell can have a tilting tray that can be used for many different goods Loading, transport and dropping at the sorting destination is suitable.
  • the sorting cell can also have a conveyor belt, in particular a cross belt, which is preferably transverse to Direction of travel of the driving unit runs horizontally and so the goods to be sorted from a loading level For example, a high rack that the drive unit picks up on and after transport in a drop level, for example the shelving system again settles.
  • the sorting device preferably has at least one second drive unit with sorting cells, those at the levels of the superimposed loading levels and / or discharge planes are firmly attached and cannot be moved. This saves manufacturing costs through reduced technical effort.
  • These driving units with level fixed Sorting cells are, however, sufficient for the transport of sorted goods, in which a level change is not required and can be controlled accordingly by a controller deploy.
  • FIG. 1a shows a sorting device according to the invention in a schematic sectional view, in which two of the sorting cells arranged one above the other have moved to the level of a pair of discharge planes,
  • FIG. 1b shows the sorting device according to FIG. 1a, in which the second sorting cells arranged one above the other have moved to the level of a second discharge plane
  • FIG. 2 shows a side view of a sorting device with two driving units with vertically movable sorting cells and two driving units with vertically fixed sorting cells in an alternating sequence in a schematic side view and
  • FIG. 3 shows an extremely schematic side view of a further embodiment of a sorting device according to the invention.
  • FIG. 3 shows a target system 2 with a total of nine sorting drop levels 4 .
  • FIG. 3 also shows a driving unit 6 , on which three sorting cells 8 are arranged one above the other.
  • the driving unit 6 is movably attached to a rail 10 under the roof 12 of a hall.
  • the vertical distance between the upper two sorting cells 8 is equal to the vertical distance between the upper and lower levels of a first pair 14 , a second pair 16 and a third pair 18 of the stacking levels 4 arranged one above the other.
  • the sorting cells can be moved vertically at a constant vertical distance from one another, in such a way that the two upper sorting cells can be moved from the level of a pair of levels 14 to the level of one of the other pairs of levels 16 or 18 .
  • a driving unit 6 ' can be seen , which is also horizontally movable along a rail 10' .
  • Three sorting cells 8 ' in the form of transverse belts are arranged one above the other with the same vertical spacing and, according to FIG. 1b, can be telescopically extended downwards from the driving unit 6' .
  • the discharge planes 4 'of a shelf system 2' shown here as running parallel to one another away from the driving unit 6 ' have vertically equal distances from one another.
  • the vertical distances of the discharge plane 4 ' are half as large as the vertical distances of the sorting cells 8' from one another.
  • the sorting cells with a constant vertical distance from one another can each perform a lifting movement between the level of an upper discharge level (position according to A and the respectively adjacent discharge level) in the position which is reached according to FIG. 1b.
  • each of the sorting cells 8 ' can then actuate the cross belt according to the indicated horizontal arrow to the left or right and thus the sorting belt (not shown) that was transported on the cross belt of the sorting cell, correspondingly to the left or right Throw into the drop level 4 'of the shelf system 2' .
  • the lifting movement of the sorting cells 8 ' between the upper position according to FIG. 1a and the lower position enables simplified control and kinematics of the lifting mechanism, because only a movement between an upper and a lower end position, for example, against stops (not shown), which are structurally simple let it be designed without the need for intermediate positioning.
  • FIG 2 it can be seen how four driving units 6 ', 6 "can be moved horizontally in succession on a rail 10' , with every second driving unit 6" sorting cells 8 " , which are fixed vertically fixed to the driving unit 6" , while the Sorting cells 8 ' on the other driving units 6' can be moved vertically with a constant vertical distance from one another.
