摘要： A two-pass mail sorting method for sorting mail into delivery point order. In one embodiment, the method includes the step of forming a delivery point group comprising delivery points that are temporarily or permanently on hold. In another embodiment, the method includes the step of processing saturation mail only after performing the first-pass mail sort. In another embodiment, the method includes partitioning a mail sorting system comprising N outputs into X virtual mail sorting systems having N/X outputs.

摘要： The mail sorting systems and methods of the invention can be used to provide a mail carrier with a batch of mail that is arranged in delivery point order and separated by delivery point. Advantageously, the systems and methods employ an expandable, transportable container having a number of expandable compartments. Each expandable compartment holds the mail for a single delivery point.

摘要： A method and an apparatus for collating a plurality of groups of mail items, such as flats mail, each group being pre-sequenced according to prioritized delivery addresses, into a final sequenced set of the mail items from the groups, utilizing the prioritized delivery addresses. Each bundle of mail items is formed into a single input stream of the individual mail items. The mail items are transported along a conveyor system from the input stream to a staging station. The mail items are sorted at the staging station into a plurality of subsets of mail items re-sequenced as an intermediate step to achieving the final sequenced sets. The mail items are then collated and merged into a single output stream from the respective subsets of mail items in the final sequenced set. Portions of the output stream from the staging station are collected in batches which maintain the sequence consistent with the prioritized delivery order sequence of the mail for a given carrier route.

摘要： A plurality of staging tower assemblies disposed above a conveyor for storing items therein and, more particularly flats mail items, which are then collated in any selected order. Each tower assembly has a plurality of independently operable endless belts below, above, and in a transition zone along the conveyor. The endless belts are driven according to a selected order of collation by a computerized controller.
