  • sorting with bags or with otherwise fixed containers that can be moved via hinges is also possible.
  • the object of the present invention is to create a sorting device with one or more movable conveying goods containers for receiving, transporting and controllably delivering conveying goods, with increased structural and functional safety, and simple handling of the conveying goods containers when the conveyed goods are conveyed in and out.
  • This object is achieved in accordance with the features of patent claim 1. Further advantageous embodiments of the invention can be found in the subclaims and the description.
  • the solution according to the invention has the advantage that material to be conveyed cannot shoot through the material-to-be-conveyed container when it is being conveyed in, since no mechanical flap opposite the direction of introduction is necessary.
  • Open magazines change the direction of movement in the process of transferring in and out, but the open side does not have to become the leading edge with respect to the direction of movement.
  • letter-like mail items can be ejected in the longitudinal direction, which is not at risk of jamming.
  • FIG. 1 shows a schematic diagram of a conveyed goods container according to the invention, in which a letter is inserted along its longitudinal axis;
  • FIG. 2 shows a schematic diagram of a conveyed goods container according to the invention, in which a letter is inserted perpendicular to its long side;

  • Fig. 1 shows a container 1 with parts 2 and 3, which are preferably designed closed, but in other embodiments are also perforated or may have openings.
  • the conveyed goods 4 are introduced into the conveyed goods container 1 through a sluice device 5 and, after being picked up, can be transported into the conveyed container 1.
  • the material to be conveyed 4 is discharged at the discharge device 6.
  • the material to be conveyed 4 is introduced and discharged through the feed device 5 and the discharge device 6, so that, with unchanged spatial orientation of the entire conveying container 1, the direction of the Inward transfer and the outward transfer are essentially perpendicular to one another.
  • the direction of the infeed is preferably horizontal and the direction of the outfeed is vertical.
  • the material to be conveyed is preferably discharged by gravitation in the vertical direction.
  • the conveyed goods containers preferably have rigidly designed wall parts and movably arranged wall parts, the discharge being carried out through openings which can be formed by means of the movably arranged wall parts.
  • the wall parts can also have different degrees of flexibility, which are adapted to the forces exerted on the walls by the conveyed goods to be conveyed, so that damage to the container and the conveyed goods can be avoided.
  • the material to be conveyed is introduced through openings which can preferably be formed by means of movable wall parts.
  • z. B triangular column shapes of the conveyed goods container is provided.
  • the dimensions of the containers and the openings formed by the infeed and outfeed devices are adapted to the formats of the material to be expected.
  • 1 shows a configuration in which the material to be conveyed in is transported standing upright on an edge along its longitudinal direction.
  • 2 shows a configuration in which the material to be conveyed in is transported perpendicular to its longitudinal axis.
  • the direction of infeed and the direction of discharge are perpendicular to one another, so that the material to be conveyed in, which often has a high speed, exerts only small force components on the discharge device during the infeed. Shoot-through of the material to be conveyed through the discharge device is therefore avoided.

  • the material to be conveyed is fed to the containers 8 with the feed device 10 and introduced into the containers.
  • the conveyed goods are fed at a constant speed and with a constant division of the conveyed goods flow, ie a constant distance between the leading edges of successive conveyed goods.
  • Feeder 1 0 and conveyor 9 work synchronously.
  • flat materials such as letters, belts or belt systems are provided as feed devices.
  • the feed device can also be designed as a U-shaped transport channel, for example with an underfloor belt or moving rollers and active or passive side belts.
  • FIG. 5 shows a further sorting device, in which, however, the material to be conveyed is introduced asynchronously.
  • the conveyed material 4 is generally fed by the feed device 11 at a non-constant speed v *

  • the transport speed of the conveying system 9 is preferably constant.
  • the structural features of the delivery system can be essentially the same as in the configuration of FIG. 4.
  • the introduction into the conveyed goods containers takes place directly from a separating device, in particular one for flat mail items, without the speed state of the conveyed goods being changed. This is particularly advantageous if the separating device separates on request, ie does not generate a random stream of mail.
  • Fig. 6 shows a sorting device with a feed device 1 2, which has a pivotable conveyor channel 1 3.
  • this beak-like conveying channel moves at essentially the same speed as the conveying container stream, that is to say with it V2 as shown in FIG. 6.
  • V2 the conveying channel 13
  • This increases the time window in which a jamming-free introduction of the conveyed goods into the conveying container is possible.
  • the conveying channel 13 swings back.
  • the speed of the conveyor channel is then set to V2 again in order to feed the next material to be conveyed.
  • FIG. 7 shows a location / time diagram of a possible pivoting movement of the conveyor channel.
  • phase 1 In the time interval designated phase 1, there is no speed difference between the tip of the conveying channel and the container flow, so that loading of the conveyed goods containers is possible in a particularly simple and safe manner.
  • phase 2 In phase 2 the direction is reversed, and in phase 3 the conveyor channel swings back at the highest possible speed. After another change of direction in phase 4, there is again a synchronous movement with the container flow.
  • each container it is not necessary for each container to be loaded successively.
  • only every second or nth container can be loaded.
  • three substance input devices each with a throughput of 10,000 / h, are also connected, so that a total throughput of 30,000 / h is required for the flow of the conveyed goods container.
  • the swiveling conveying channel can be moved by an electric motor or pneumatically or by a temporary mechanical coupling between the conveyed goods container and the transport system, whereby a swinging back is effected, for example, by a spring.
  • a swinging back is effected, for example, by a spring.
  • the goods to be conveyed can be transported in the swiveling conveying channel by means of belts or roller systems.

  • FIG. 9 shows a further embodiment of the invention, in which a switch 1 6 is connected upstream of a cascade of delivery channels 15, 15 '. In this way, additional time can be gained for the feed channels to swing back. In the case shown with two delivery channels 1 5, 1 5 ', the maximum permissible swing-back time results
  • the impact in the conveyed goods container can be reduced by reducing the conveying speed when the conveyed goods are introduced into the conveyed goods container. This enables a correspondingly longer lock-in time due to the reduced speed.
  • Fig. 1 0 shows a simple embodiment of a conveyed goods container, in which a movable wall part is arranged to be pivotable about an axis of rotation D.
