The merge assembly is movably connected to the buffer rack through a movable assembly, and configured to receive an article in at least one of the plurality of buffer hoppers, and convey at least one article to the packing assembly.

Abstract: An apparatus for sorting and conveying, including: a cargo carrying assembly; a conveying assembly, configured to drive the cargo carrying assembly to move; where, the conveying assembly comprises a sprocket set and a chain drivingly connected to the sprocket set, the chain is pivotally connected with a roller, and the sprocket set is configured to be engaged with the roller to drive the cargo carrying assembly to move circularly; and a bearing assembly, disposed adjacent to the sprocket set and configured to bear the roller in response to the roller to be engaged with or disengaged from the sprocket set.

Abstract: Disclosed is a sorting machine, comprising a rack, two rail units which are both mounted on the rack and are symmetrical to each other, and a sorting cart. The rail units comprise: a transverse rail assembly, wherein the transverse rail assembly comprises a plurality of transverse rails and a plurality of reversing mechanisms, and the transverse rails and the reversing mechanisms are alternately arranged along a straight line; and a plurality of vertical rails which are parallel to each other, wherein the vertical rails and the reversing mechanisms are arranged in one-to-one correspondence. The sorting cart is switched to a rail by means of the reversing mechanisms, and a conveying direction of a conveying assembly is different from a traveling direction of the sorting cart.

Abstract: Provided are a carrying device, a warehousing logistics system, and a pallet carrying method. The carrying device is configured to carry the pallet, and includes: a vehicle body configured to autonomously move; a mounting bracket horizontally and slidably disposed on the vehicle body; and a fork arm, where a first end of the fork arm is connected to the mounting bracket, the fork arm is configured to protrude horizontally along with movement of the mounting bracket to be inserted into a fork hole of the pallet, and raise and lower relative to the vehicle body to lift the pallet, and the vehicle body and the mounting bracket are configured to, when the fork arm lifts the pallet, enable the pallet to be located above the vehicle body by relative movement between the vehicle body and the mounting bracket.
