摘要： A method for loading a sling having a bottom and sidewalls comprises placing the sling bottom on a raised platform and rolling the sidewalls down into a gutter surrounding the raised platform so that the sidewalls form a negative angle with the sling bottom. Bagged product is then loaded onto the bottom of the sling to form a stack. The sling sidewalls are then rolled up the sidewalls up the stack sides so that the sidewalls form a positive angle with the sling bottom and the sling now encloses the stack of product. The sling jig assembly includes a raised central platform on which is adapted to rest the bottom of the sling. A gutter formed about the periphery of the central platform is adapted to receive the rolled-down sidewalls of the sling.

摘要： A modular split palletizer for loading layers of articles on stackable pallets. The palletizer has a frame supporting first, second, and third sections. The first section includes a layer build area and a first portion of a stacker transfer track. The second section includes a tier sheet bin, a top frame bin, and a second portion of the track. The third section includes a pallet build area and a third portion of the track. Each of the first, second, and third sections can be disassembled, moved individually and independently, and re-assembled at a new location to form the complete palletizer. Also disclosed is a method of relocating the modular split palletizer. With the palletizer at one location, the utilities connected to the palletizer are disconnected, the fasteners holding the sections together are released, and the sections are separated. The disassembled sections are moved to the new location and reassembled.

摘要： A rotary vacuum wicketting arrangement has a rotary hub body positioned on a shaft or spindle and supporting a number of pickup arms, and a non-rotating vacuum spinning head that provides vacuum to the rotating hub body and pickup arms over a portion of their arcuate travel. The rotary hub body is provided with a lock ring formed or a pair of half rings with hand levers so that the position of the hub body on the shaft can be adjusted toollessly. The pickup arms are held in place in their sockets by ball and spring detents, so that they can be pulled out for cleaning and reinserted without tools. A friction fitted plug closes off the end of each arm.

摘要： A bale accumulator and method in which a plurality of hay bales can be accumulated and arranged into a cluster of ten bales (a “ten stack”). The accumulator first collects a bale in each of two angled bale receivers at the rear of the accumulator. These remain in position as four columns having two bales each are collected in a more forward collection. The result is two angled bales being dragged to the rear of a conventional “eight stack.” As the device releases all ten bales, gate mechanisms rotate the two rear bales 90 degrees so that they lie transverse to the eight bales comprising the “eight stack.” The two rear bales are pressed against the rear of the eight stack in order to form a ten stack.

摘要： A new type of pallet stacking assembly line. Two pick-and-place robots are used. The first robot has a relatively low position. The second robot is in an elevated position. A pallet dispenser dispenses a first pallet onto a pallet conveyor. The pallet conveyor then moves the first pallet to a first build position in front of the first robot. The first robot then begins picking products from a first pick position and stacking them on the first pallet. Once the products on the first pallet reach approximately half the finished height, the pallet conveyor carries the first pallet over to a second build position in front of the second robot. At the same time, the pallet dispenser dispenses a second pallet which is carried to the first build position. The second robot picks products from a second pick position and places them on the upper portion of the first pallet in order to complete the stack. Meanwhile, the first robot is picking and placing products on the lower portion of the second pallet. The process continues indexing, with both robots ideally being busy all the time. Each robot only has to build half the pallet. Thus, overall line speed is increased.

摘要翻译： 一种新型托盘堆垛装配线。 使用两个拾放机器人。 第一台机器人的位置相对较低。 第二台机器人处于高位。 托盘分配器将第一托盘分配到托盘输送机上。 托盘输送机然后将第一托盘移动到第一机器人前面的第一构建位置。 然后，第一个机器人开始从第一个拾取位置挑选产品并将其堆叠在第一个托盘上。 一旦第一托盘上的产品达到成品高度的大约一半，托盘输送机将第一托盘运送到第二机器人前面的第二构建位置。 同时，托盘分配器分配托运到第一构建位置的第二托盘。 第二机器人从第二拾取位置拾取产品并将它们放置在第一托盘的上部以便完成堆叠。 同时，第一台机器人在第二托盘的下部拾取和放置产品。 该过程继续进行索引，两个机器人理想地始终处于忙碌状态。 每个机器人只需要制作一半的托盘。 因此，总线速度增加。

摘要： A method for stacking firewood which comprises the steps of supplying an elongated strap, securing a first end portion of the strap about a piece of firewood, laying a first portion of the strap along a substrate, placing a plurality of logs in a side by side relationship to form a first row on top of the first portion of the strap, wrapping the strap about an end of the first row and then extending the strap on top of the first row, stacking further objects in a second row on top of the strap and first row, and wrapping the strap about a second end of the second row and again extending the strap on top of the second row. The steps are repeated until the desired amount of firewood is stacked.

摘要： A grabber for automatically grabbing and placing packing units of different dimensions and configurations includes a frame with a support, a hold-down device and a stripper attached to the frame. The support supports a bottom portion of a respective packing unit, and is generally horizontally movable with respect to the frame. The hold-down device is downwardly movable toward the support to clamp the respective packing unit between the support and the hold-down device. The stripper is disposed above the support and is generally horizontally movable. The respective packing unit is substantially immobilized by the hold-down device and the stripper as the support is retracted.
