摘要:
The invention relates to a production line (1) for assembling and/or processing components (3) transported on workpiece holders (2), incorporating several conveyor sections (5, 6a, 6b, 6c) disposed one after the other, each of which has at least one separate forward feed mechanism (15; 51) which is independent of the adjacent conveyor sections (5, 6a, 6b, 6c) and at least one co-operating guide mechanism with two oppositely lying guide tracks (20), along which the workpiece holder (2) disposed between them, incorporating guide elements to provide a height and lateral guiding action, can be moved and positioned. The guide elements of the workpiece holder (2) have a groove-shaped recess for engaging in the guide tracks (20) spaced at a distance apart from one another transversely to the feed direction (16) and at least one guide track (20) is provided in at least one of the conveyor sections (6a; 6c) which can be raised by means of an adjusting mechanism from a non-operating position outside an obstruction gauge of the workpiece holder (2) into a position above the transport plane (19) and displaced into an engaged position locating with the recesses of the guide elements transversely to a longitudinal direction of the guide track (20).

An arrangement comprises several work stations for machining and/or assembling components. Receivers for holding components are provided on workpiece holders (3) connected to a feed drive in the form of a conveyor chain (5). Guide devices with guide tracks (11, 12) for the conveyor chain are arranged in identical housing parts (8). The guide tracks (11, 12) are of equal length. The housing parts (8) are connected to one another and to a reversing station (7) for the conveyor chain (5) by means of guide and/or coupling devices (10) to form a housing unit supported on a contact surface (14) by supporting devices (13).

A device for positioning or stopping a workpiece carrier of a conveying device in which workpieces are fed to different work stations following each other in a conveying direction is provided. The workpiece carrier is provided with an external stop projecting therefrom transversely of the conveying direction and arranged to cooperate with a stop carrier element disposed outside the path of movement of the workpiece carrier and having a stop surface moveable into and out of the path of movement of the stop in the conveying direction. In one embodiment the stop carrier element is moveable transversely of the conveying direction and engages a stop below the workpiece carrier. In another embodiment the stop element comprises a rotary cylinder extending longitudinally of the conveying direction and having a generally helical slide track engaging a stop projecting laterally from the workpiece carrier. The slide track comprises alternate sections extending at right angles to the axis of rotation of the cylinder and intermediate sections extending obliquely whereby successive stops are formed by the alternate right angle sections.

A modular machine table comprises a pair of vertical plate-like support components interconnected via horizontal transverse struts by releasable coupling devices and supporting a table plate secured by releasable coupling devices. The plate-like components are suitably of channel form and are provided with adjustable lower supports and with bores in the web for receipt of coupling means for joining adjacent tables and in the flange for mounting of a safety module or the like. The table plate is formed with bores and recesses for mounting guiding drive, coding and positioning modules and with a pattern of bores and/or slots for locating and mounting working devices. In one embodiment a table plate is provided with a turntable and two sets of guide modules intersecting at the turntable whereby a workpiece carrier may be displaced from one to another guide path. The plate-like components are arranged flush with edges of the table plates so that the plate-like components of adjacent tables may be abutted.Common parts are used for the construction of different tables in readily dissemblable manner, which are of high rigidity and which by virtue of their modular nature allow flexible arrangement of a production line.

Entangled parts are singled by placing them in a holding container, discharging them through an outlet to a path of travel communicating therewith and arranged to deliver the parts along the path of travel to a flat receptacle capable of supporting a plurality of separated parts simultaneously. The dimensions of the discharge outlet and the path of travel are at least in one direction a multiple of the second largest dimension of the parts to permit simultaneous passage of a plurality of separate parts side-by-side.
摘要:
An installation for processing or assembling components has a succession of transport and work stations. Each station comprises a housing including a lower base frame, an upper base frame and a table plate mounted on the upper base frame. The table plate of at least one housing supports a straight conveying track for a pallet carrying the components and the table plate of at least one housing supports intersecting conveying tracks for the pallet. The housings have the same dimensions in length and width, and the width of each housing is shorter than the length. The table plate defines a recess receiving a forward feed mechanism for conveying the pallet along the conveying tracks. A supporting plate carrying the forward feed mechanism is affixed to the table plate. A belt drive for the forward feed mechanism projects a distance no greater than the average thickness of a human finger above the table plate.
