    摘要: A frictional force monitoring system for middle troughs of a scraper conveyor, comprising a scraper conveyor system and a sensing detection system. The scraper conveyor system consists of a machine body, middle troughs, thrust lugs, scrapers, a double chain, a sprocket, a speed reducer, an electric motor and a frequency converter. The sensing monitoring system consists of force receiving modules, a three-dimensional force sensor, and a pre-embedded temperature sensor. The frictional force monitoring system is able to monitor impact loads, frictional forces, friction coefficients, temperature, etc. between an annular chain, coal bulk, and middle troughs of the scraper conveyor under complex and severe operating conditions, and to provide the technical means for the design, safety early-warning and health evaluation of the scraper conveyor, and can provide a data basis for studying friction wear and fatigue breaking mechanism of middle troughs of a scraper machine.

    摘要: The invention includes a method and a handling system for manipulating and/or for handling piece goods (2) moved one after another in at least one row (1, 1a, 1b) in a transport direction (TR) on a horizontal conveying device (6). In each work cycle, seizing at least one transported piece good (2) from the at least one row (1, 1a, 1b) by at least one handling device (10); spatially separating it from the row (1, 1a, 1b); and bringing it into a specified relative target position and/or target alignment relative to subsequent piece goods (2). After a failure event with an at least a temporary standstill of the horizontal conveying device (6) and/or of the handling device (10), the handling device (10) is initialized, and, after the failure has been remedied, the horizontal conveying device (6) automatically restarts and continues the previously interrupted process.

    摘要: A system including a temporary parcel and a freight parcel. The temporary parcel includes a container, a closure having closed and opened configurations, and a device for detecting the closed or opened configuration. The freight parcel is able to contain the temporary parcel has an electronic display viewable from the outside of the freight parcel, and includes an information-technology unit parameterized to transmit display instructions to the electronic display. The temporary parcel carries a radio tag containing information on a postal address, and the freight parcel includes comprises a proximity transceiver to communicate with the radio tag and parameterised to read the postal address information. The electronic unit cooperates with the detection device for detecting the temporary parcel and is parameterized to enable a display, by the display device, of the postal address information on reception, by the information-technology unit, of closure information by the detection device.

    摘要: A conveyance apparatus includes a mover, a stator, and a control unit. The mover moves along a first direction. The stator includes a plurality of first sensors arranged along the first direction. Each of the plurality of first sensors can detect position information about the mover. The control unit corrects the position information about the mover and controls a position and/or orientation of the mover based on at least one of a relative position between at least one of the plurality of first sensors and the mover. The relative position is obtained by (a) detection values of the plurality of first sensors and/or (b) detection times in which the plurality of first sensors each detect the position information about the mover.
