    摘要: A conveyor carriage for a commodity sorting system that has a tray pivotally mounted to a supporting truck and a releasable latch mechanism that normally holds the tray in a horizontal load carrying position. A cam member is pivoted on the underside of the tray which includes two distinct inclined surfaces. The first surface is a short incline at the leading part of the member that is disposed at a relatively steep angle with respect to the direction of movement of the carriage, and the second surface presents a curve which has its leading portion tangential to the direction of movement of the tray and then descends in an increasing slope along the rest of its length. A tray tipping tilt arm is mounted in the path of travel of the carriage to engage the cam member and raise it for first releasing the latch mechanism, and then tilting the tray with a controlled acceleration that facilitates discharge of commodities from the tray.

    摘要: An article delivery system comprising pivotally mounted trays or other article carrying means movable along a conveyor path and including a coding mechanism for selectively pivoting the article carrying means to achieve article discharge. The article carrying means are supported on a downwardly extending actuating member which is connected to a transversely movable element. Movable track sections are located at intervals along the conveyor path and the transversely movable element engages the movable track sections when discharge is to take place. The transverse movement is translated into pivoting movement of the article carrying means.

    摘要: 1,058,876. Endless conveyers. JERVIS B. WEBB CO. Nov. 18, 1965 [Dec. 2, 19641, No. 49014/65. Heading B8A. A load-carrying tray 12 carried by a wheeled trolley 10 connected to a roller chain 26, is deflectable to either side of the path of conveyance (as shown in dot-dash lines in Fig. 2, not shown) by the action of either of arms (51), (52), on the carrier, engaging a tripping device (48). The latter is moved into the paths of one or other arm (51), (52) (according to which side the tray is intended to discharge), when the trolley is selected (by means not described) for discharge at the station respective to the device 48. Each arm (51), (52) has a respective latch arm (79), (86) (Fig. 3, not shown), both of which normally engage a latch surface (64) of a member 62. The latter carries a gear segment 58 (Fig. 4, not shown, and Fig. 1) which meshes with a pinion 56 rigid with a pivot member 36 of the tray 12. In operation, when arm (51) is deflected (dash-dot lines, Fig. 3) by the device (48) the latch member (79) is pulled ou of engagement with the latch surface (64) and a stop (84) engages the latch member 62 to cause rotation of the gear segment 58 and consequent deflection of the tray 12. The arm (52) remains latched and follows the deflection of the arm (51).

    摘要: A carrier includes a chassis that is configured to travel from a loading point to an unloading point and a tillable platform is mounted on the chassis. A resilient piston is connected between the chassis and the tillable platform, the piston configured to store energy when the platform is rotated from an unloading orientation to a loading orientation. The platform, when in the loading orientation, is configured to stably support one or more items that are loaded onto the platform at the loading point. A restraining mechanism is configured to maintain the platform in the loading orientation and a triggering mechanism is operable to release the restraining mechanism, releasing the stored energy of the piston to exert a restoring force to tilt the platform from the loading orientation to the unloading orientation.
