摘要： A package handling diverter, merge and sorter for package sortation is disclosed. The system includes at least one base frame with individual, cellular and autonomous pivot wheels mounted to the frame, in plurality, and can be combined together to form a complete sortation system. Each autonomous pivot wheel is a cellular design possessing its own drive motors so each can perform autonomously, yet in concert with other autonomous pivot wheels. The system is cable of diverting, merging and sorting packages. The autonomous pivot wheels are interactively coupled for communication therebetween whereby packages are selectively moved about configurable paths.

摘要： Methods, apparatuses and systems for a conveyor control system are disclosed herein. An example apparatus may comprise radar device for sending and receiving electromagnetic waves to a first and second objects on a conveyor section. A first and second timing or frequency variations between the sent and received first and second electromagnetic waves are determined. The apparatus may comprise a controller configured to generate a point cloud using any of the first and second timing or frequency variations, determine any of first dimensions, a first distance, and a first speed of movement of the first object and second dimensions, a second distance, and a second speed of movement of the second object on the first conveyor section using the point cloud, determine a first gap between the first object and the second object, and control one or more first operating parameters of the first conveyor section using the first gap.

摘要： The method can include: sampling images of a conveyor region S110; determining a set of patches S120; estimating a displacement for each patch S130; estimating a conveyor motion parameter(s) based on the patch displacement S140; and optionally performing an action based on the conveyor motion parameter S150. However, the method S100 can additionally or alternatively include any other suitable elements. The method S100 functions to estimate a set of conveyor motion parameters (e.g., conveyor speed). Additionally or alternatively, the method can function to enable dynamic control of an independent robotic assembly system(s) to accommodate conveyor motion changes.

摘要： A tolerance adjuster and wear device, e.g. spring clip, is provided for automatically adjusting the tolerance or clearance between a pusher shoe surface and an adjacent surface of a linear slat of a positive displacement sorter. The spring clip includes an engagement portion to couple the clip to a pusher shoe and a wear portion to automatically bias or adjust a tolerance between the pusher shoe and a corresponding slat. The engagement portion includes a retainer, in the form of a pair of opposing elastic grips or teach that are insertable through a receiver in a surface of the shoe. The wear portion includes a wear surface and spring element, such as a spring arm or convex dome. The spring element is elastic to provide a consistent and automatic bias against the slat surface. Preferably, the spring clip is extruded from a resilient, wear-resistant self-lubricating polymer.

摘要： A conveyor station, robot module, sweeper module, and methods for autonomously emptying debris using the conveyor station are described. In one example, a conveyor station includes a housing having an input end and an output end. The conveyor station includes a conveyor belt having a receiving region proximate to the input end and an angled transport region leading toward a dispense region. The conveyor belt has a plurality of fins that extend out from a surface of the conveyor belt. The plurality of fins enable movement of debris collected at the receiving region toward the dispense region. The dispense region is configured to push debris into a drop funnel of the housing, and the drop funnel directs debris into a receptacle. The conveyor station includes a conveyor controller of the conveyor station is configured with a sensor for detecting presence of a sweeper module. The sweeper module includes a container that holds debris collected when the sweeper module is connected to a robot module. The debris is configured to be emptied from said sweeper module directly onto said receiving region of the conveyor belt.

摘要： A detection system has an interface including a substrate supporting a conductive coating. Electrodes are provided to the substrate. A multiplexer provides current to the electrodes. A demultiplexer receives voltages from electrodes and provides corresponding signals to a controller. The controller receives these signals and determines therefrom an operation performed in connection with the interface by applying an algorithmic approach. Static interaction is recognizable, and machine learning can be used for gesture recognition and/or identification of other interaction types. The technology can be used in a broad array of applications, e.g., where it is desirable to sense interactions with a defined region such as, for example, in the case of touches, gestures, hovers, and/or the like.

The automated storage and retrieval grid includes a container handling vehicle rail system and a delivery column. The container handling vehicle rail system, which is for guiding a plurality of container handling vehicles, includes a first set of parallel rails arranged in a horizontal plane and extending in a first direction, and a second set of parallel rails arranged in the horizontal plane and extending in a second direction which is orthogonal to the first direction, which first and second sets of rails form a grid pattern in the horizontal plane including a plurality of adjacent container handling vehicle grid cells. Each container handling vehicle grid cell includes a container handling vehicle grid opening defined by a pair of neighboring rails of the first set of rails and a pair of neighboring rails of the second set of rails. The delivery column is adapted for transport of a storage container arranged in a stack of storage containers beneath the container handling vehicle rail system between a container handling vehicle and a delivery port situated at a lower end of the delivery column. The delivery system includes a remotely operated delivery vehicle. The remotely operated delivery vehicle includes a vehicle body, rolling devices connected to the vehicle body, rolling device motors for driving the rolling devices in a horizontal plane, and a power source connected to the rolling device motors. A container carrier is adapted to support the storage container.

摘要： A bucket elevator adjustable guide system for efficiently transferring and dispensing particulate material from a bucket elevator includes a head housing connected to the bucket elevator, an adjustable guide member disposed therein, an extendable and retractable adjustment member connected to the guide member, a remotely controllable drive unit coupled to the adjustment member, and a remote control. The head housing receives buckets of particulate material to be dispensed from the bucket elevator. The guide member extends in a curved arc over the buckets to engage and guide discharged particulate material into a discharge chute. Remote controls enable the drive unit to be manually or automatically controlled to cause the adjustment member to extend or retract to adjust the position and configuration of the guide member and affect the transfer and dispensing of the particulate material without physically accessing the adjustment member.
