The core structural feature of the manual matrix sorting chute is "modular combination+layered diversion design". Through standardized chute units, reasonable path planning, and humanized auxiliary structures, it achieves efficient diversion, correct diversion, and safe transportation of goods in manual sorting scenarios, adapting to the sorting needs of small and medium-sized items in industries such as express delivery and e-commerce.
1、 Core structure composition: modular and standardized design
The structure of the manual matrix sorting chute is based on modular units, and each component can be flexibly combined to adapt to different sorting site layouts and sorting volume requirements.
1. Main Framework: Carrying and Supporting Core
Structural form: A frame structure made of welded carbon steel or stainless steel materials, often designed in multiple layers (usually 2-4 layers), with sorting stations and chute units set up on each layer.
Core features:
The frame has high strength and can bear the weight of the chute and the impact load of goods, ensuring overall structural stability and resistance to deformation.
Standardized size design allows for flexible adjustment of the number of layers and units based on the length and width of the site, adapting to sorting centers of different scales.
Functional value: Provide stable support for chute units, sorting tables, and auxiliary facilities, while achieving three-dimensional utilization of sorting space and saving floor space.
2. Chute unit: cargo diversion core component
The chute unit is the core functional component of the sorting chute, responsible for guiding manually sorted goods to a certain area. Its structural design directly affects sorting efficiency and cargo safety.
Structural form: High density polyethylene (HDPE) or high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) sheets are bent and formed, with a single groove unit in the shape of a "U" or "V" groove, with a smooth groove bottom to reduce friction between goods.
Core features:
Modular splicing: The length and angle of a single chute unit can be customized (common angles are 15 ° -30 °), and connected by bolts to form a complete diversion path. The chute direction can be adjusted according to sorting needs (straight, turning, diversion).
Layered diversion design: Different levels of chute units operate independently, with the upper chute responsible for long-distance diversion and the lower chute responsible for close distance diversion, avoiding cross interference of goods at different levels.
Anti wear and buffering design: The surface of the groove is smooth, and wear-resistant strips are installed at the bottom of some sliding grooves; Install buffer pads or curved transition structures at the entrance and exit of goods to reduce impact damage.
Functional value: Achieve non powered guidance of goods from sorting stations to packaging areas/conveyor lines, without the need for electric drive, reducing energy consumption, while improving the speed of goods transportation through smooth troughs.
3. Sorting station: core area for manual operation
The sorting station is an area where operators sort goods, and its structural design is centered around humanization and efficiency.
Structural form: Each workstation is equipped with a sorting table (usually 0.8-1.2m wide), on which a temporary storage area for goods, a scanning equipment bracket, and a chute entrance guide plate are set up.
Core features:
Highly adaptable ergonomics: The sorting table is designed with a height of 0.75-0.85m, suitable for the standing sorting posture of operators, reducing bending fatigue; The distance between workstations is 1.5-2m, ensuring sufficient space for operators to move around.
Multi chute entrance layout: Each workstation corresponds to 2-4 chute entrances, which lead to different destinations (such as different areas, different courier companies), and operators can quickly put goods into the corresponding chute.
Visual identification: Clear destination signs (such as area codes and courier company logos) are set up at the entrance of the chute, accompanied by LED indicator lights to assist operators in quickly identifying and reducing sorting error rates.
Functional value: Providing convenient and comfortable operating space for manual sorting, improving sorting efficiency and reducing manual labor intensity through multi entrance layout and clear labeling.
2、 Key design feature: Adapt to the requirements of manual sorting scenarios
In addition to the basic structure, the manual matrix sorting chute also has multiple targeted design features to ensure the efficiency, safety, and stability of the sorting process.
1. Path planning: correct diversion and interference free transportation
Features: Adopting a "tree like diversion" or "grid like" path design, an independent diversion path is formed from the sorting station to the packaging area, and goods from different destinations are conveyed through different chute units to avoid path intersection and congestion.
Detail design: The groove at the turning point adopts a large curvature radius design to reduce the jamming and collision of goods during turning; Set up guide plates at the diversion nodes to guide the goods correctly into the target chute.
2. Safety protection: Ensure the safety of goods and personnel
Goods safety: Set up a blocking plate or buffer belt at the exit of the chute to prevent goods from rushing out of the chute due to excessive speed; The edge of the tank is designed with rounded corners to prevent the goods from being scratched.
Personnel safety: Set up protective railings (height ≥ 1.2m) around the frame to prevent personnel from falling; Install protective barriers at the entrance of the chute to prevent operators from reaching their hands into the chute and being hit by goods.
3. Easy maintenance and scalability: reduce operating costs
Easy to maintain: The sliding groove unit is connected by bolts and can be disassembled and replaced. In case of partial damage, there is no need to replace it as a whole; The surface of the tank is smooth, easy to clean, and reduces dust accumulation.
Scalability: The framework reserves interfaces that can add sorting stations and chute units at any time according to the growth of business volume, without the need for large-scale modifications to the original structure, reducing expansion costs.
3、 Summary of Structural Advantages
The structural design of the manual matrix sorting chute revolves around the core requirements of "efficiency, low cost, and humanization", and its advantages can be summarized as follows:
Modular design: flexible combination, adaptable to different sites and sorting needs, easy installation and expansion.
Non powered diversion: relying on the weight of the goods to slide down, without the need for electric drive, low energy consumption, and low operating costs.
Humanized operation: ergonomically designed workstations with clear labeling to reduce manual labor intensity and sorting error rates.
Safe and stable: Multiple protective structures ensure the safety of goods transportation and personnel operation, with strong structural stability and long service life.
