摘要:
Hinge pin or part of hinge pin for use when connecting two adjacent modular conveyor belt links of the type where the belt links are provided with projecting eye parts, where the eye parts are provided with a transverse aperture, such that a hinge pin may be inserted through overlapping eye parts through the apertures hingely connecting two adjacent modules, wherein the hinge pin is shorter than the width of the belt links perpendicular to the intended travelling direction, and that the hinge pin has a central section having a cylindrical shape in the axial direction and where the ends of the hinge pin comprises a conical section, said conical section having an outer circumference larger than the axial section of the pin, where the conical section is provided with three or more radially extending slots, where each slot has a depth in the axial direction of the hinge pin being equal to or less than the extent in the axial direction of the conical section, where the width of each slot is such that when the three or more conical sections abut, the circumference is equal to or less the circumference of the cylindrical part of the hinge pin.

An end protector link for capturing and retaining first and second elongate link pins of a multi-link conveyor chain is provided. The end protector link includes an outer wall defining a protective bearing surface defining a pair of openings for allowing ingress and egress of respective enlarged heads of the first and second link pins, and an inner wall carried in spaced-apart relation to the outer wall and having a pair of retainer apertures generally aligned with respective ones of the pair of openings for capturing and retaining respective enlarged heads of the first and second link pins between facing surfaces of the outer wall and the inner wall. The protective bearing surface of the outer wall is adapted for being engaged by wearing surfaces past which the conveyor moves and thereby protecting the enlarged heads of the link pins from exposure to said wearing surfaces.

An end protector link (60) captures and retains first and second elongate link pins of a multi-link conveyor chain, and includes an outer wall (41) defining a protective bearing surface, a spacer wall (62) carried by the outer wall, and an inner wall (63) carried by the spacer wall in spaced-apart relation to the outer wall and having a retainer aperture (75) for capturing and retaining respective enlarged heads (13) of the first and second link pins (12) between facing surfaces of the outer wall and the inner wall. The protective bearing surface of the outer wall is adapted for being engaged by wearing surfaces past which the conveyor moves to protect the enlarged heads (13) of the link pins to exposure to the wearing surfaces.
摘要:
A variable-width spacer for use in a conveying apparatus includes a first link and a second link on opposite widthwise side of the spacer. The links can move relative to each other in a widthwise direction of the spacer to vary its width. The spacer can be used to fill a gap between adjoining members of a conveying apparatus, such as between two conveyor belts.
摘要:
The invention provides a conveying apparatus including an upstream conveyor, a downstream conveyor oriented perpendicularly to the upstream conveyor to form a butt turn, and a mechanism for transferring conveyed articles from the upstream conveyor to the downstream conveyor. The transfer mechanism includes guide rails that provide a corner to change the direction of travel of the conveyed articles and a transfer assist conveyor for supporting the articles as they travel between the upstream and downstream conveyors. The transfer assist conveyor runs alongside the upstream conveyor and has a cantilevered section that extends over the sprocket location of the downstream conveyor to perform the function of a prior art static transfer plate.

Apparatus for handling and transferring bulb-shaped glass containers from one station in a container production line to another. A series of container handling vacuum chucks are linked together into an endless chain to pick glass containers in succession up from a first conveyor and to deposit the containers on a second conveyor. A control valve mounted on each chuck normally supplies the chuck with vacuum, however the control valve is actuated at the container discharge station, and may also be actuated at a reject station to supply air under pressure to the chuck to eject the container.
摘要:
A conveyor structure for use where accuracy is desired between succeeding portions of the conveyer and, at the same time, wear is to be minimized. The conveyor comprises a plurality of interconnected links. Each link comprises a body having at least two longitudinally spaced openings. A bushing is resiliently mounted in each opening by a relatively resilient but solid plastic molded in situ between the periphery of the bushing and the opening. The links are interconnected by pins extending through the aligned bushings of succeeding links and the pins engage a rotary element such as a sprocket to produce a driving engagement between the rotary element and the conveyor.
摘要:
An egg transferring or collecting device for collecting eggs from several superimposed channels and conveying them to a single channel comprises a main vertical endless chain conveyor with a number of baskets in the form of multi-tine forks, the baskets being pivoted so as to occupy either a ''''collect'''' position or a ''''deliver'''' position, both positions being stable. On the ''''up'''' moving side of the chain each basket is tipped to a collect position at a respective channel, and whether eggs are collected there or not, thereafter tipped to a deliver position. From this position eggs are collected at a collecting station during the downward movement of the chain and transferred to a belt conveyor.
