2.3 Bin drive
Up and down movement of each bin in the sorter is achieved by the rotation of the
bin motor (M1) (+24V) located on the lower frame of the sorter. If any overdrive
occurs,the upper and lower limit switches(MS2 and MS3) (micro-switch) detect
the abnormality and protect the machine against damage.
(1) A spacer and a tray pin are fitted to both sides of each bin. The spacer is
engaged in the groove of bin side frame,while the tray pin is engaged in the
groove of the reed cam,which firmly secures each bin.
(2) The rotating motion of the bin motor is transmitted to the reed cam (front/rear)
through the bin drive belt. Tray pins (for each bin) engaged in the groove in the
reed cam move up and down along the inclination provided in the reed cam,
thereby causing the bin frame (and the bin) engaged with each spacer to move
up and down.
(3) The position of the cam is detected by the reed cam home position sensor
(micro switch). This is achieved by turning the reed cam home position sensor
switch ON each time the actuator on the reed cam (rear) completes a rotation.
