    摘要: An item sorting system (1) includes a moving belt (1a) and one or more sorting units (2). The sorting unit (2) has an enclosure (3) with a work aperture (4), a suction unit (5) with a suction head (6), and a robot arm unit (7) mounted in the enclosure (3) for moving the suction head (6) within a predetermined operating space within the enclosure (3). The enclosure (3) has one or more shell sections (3a) forming a side wall (3b) of the enclosure (3). In a further aspect, the suction unit (5) has a suction head (6) connected to a suction head channel (11), a low pressure source (12a) connected to the suction head channel (11) via a first valve (13), and a control unit (15) connected to the first valve (13) and arranged to actuate the first valve (13) between a suction position and a release position.

    摘要: A shaft for a rotary star screen apparatus has a shaft body having a series of axially spaced star connectors and a series of stars, mounted to the star connectors. Each one of these stars has a plurality of circumferentially distributed star members each elongate in a direction having a component radially away from the shaft body. The star connectors each have a plurality of circumferentially distributed star member connectors. Each of these star members is a separate part, individually and detachably mounted to one of the star member connectors. An apparatus equipped with such shafts is also described.

    摘要: A baling press having a rope tying system with a loop supply member for forming a loop of the second rope material across the bale pressing channel to the first side of the bale pressing channel and a loop of the first rope material at the first side. The loop supply member is suspended on the second side of said bale pressing channel and movable along a straight path between an extended position projecting across the bale pressing channel and a retracted position.
    The loop supply member has a turn guide for forming and guiding the loops in the first and second rope materials and a spreader for, when the loop supply member is in the extended position, holding the rope materials guided so that portions in the knotting area are spaced from a free end portion of the loop supply member.

    摘要: A sorting screen for sorting material comprises a row of rotatable, driven shafts mutually spaced in a conveying direction. Each shaft extends transversally to said conveying direction and carries carrying a row of radially extending rotor bodies for intermittently urging material on the sorting screen upward and in conveying direction. The rotor bodies of each of said rows are mutually spaced in longitudinal direction of the respective shaft by spacers. Each spacer is a tubular spacer and each rotor body is provided with at least a recess or a number of projections retaining a respective end face of a respective tubular spacer.

    摘要: A separating screen conveyor for sorting a material into fractions having different distributions of a property of the particles or items. The conveyor screen has a row of shafts mutually spaced in a conveying direction, each shaft carrying a row of axially spaced discs for intermittently urging material on the sorting conveyor upward and in the conveying direction. The discs are releasably clamped to the shafts which have strips oriented in longitudinal direction of the shafts on circumferential surfaces of the shafts. The strips have toothed surfaces. Openings of the discs each have a recess closely fitting to the strips and teeth in engagement with the teeth of the toothed surfaces of the strips. The pitch of the teeth of the strips is smaller than the maximum widths of the discs in the longitudinal direction of the shaft.

    摘要: A disc for a separating conveyor screen has a disc body with an opening in an axial direction for receiving a shaft. At least one anchoring member of the disc has an anchoring portion projecting into the opening in a radially inward direction and has a positioning portion fitted in a disc body of the disc. The anchoring portion has at least one projection in circumferential sense of the opening for anchoring in at least one recess in an outside surface of the shaft. At least one tensioner is provided for tensioning the anchoring member and the disc body radially towards each other. A separating conveyor screen equipped with such discs is also described.
