Abstract:
In a device for transferring vehicle wheels, an individual vehicle wheel can be gripped by a gripping module having at least one gripping unit which is supported by a frame structure and includes multiple pressing elements that can be pressed against one or more mating surfaces of an individual vehicle wheel. A first gripping module and a second gripping module are mounted on a common rigid support structure which can be rotated about a main axis of rotation by a rotating mechanism. Furthermore, the pressing elements move with a movement component running parallel to the main axis of rotation.
Abstract:
A spindle conveyor for conveying workpieces, in particular vehicle wheels, having a rail system that includes at least one support rail. Multiple conveyor carriages have a chassis that can be moved on the support rail in a conveying direction and a supporting device for workpieces which is entrained by the chassis. Each workpiece can be mounted on a workpiece spindle which is part of the supporting device which has a pair of workpiece spindles mounted so as to be rotatable as a unit relative to the chassis about a vertical axis of rotation and can be moved at least into a first rotational position and a second rotational position. Also a station for treating workpieces, in particular vehicle wheels, with such a spindle conveyor which allows the workpieces to be conveyed through the station.

Abstract:
An apparatus and a process for the automatic palletising and/or depalletising of containers, in particular small-load carriers, having a control device are described. The control device is functionally connected to at least one sensor device for detecting the position and/or the orientation of at least one container to be gripped and to a gripping device for gripping the container. The gripping device has at least one outer gripper movable relative to the container for gripping at least one edge of the container. The outer gripper has at least two gripping jaws.
Abstract:
A device for loading firing, sintering or drying material onto and unloading it from the shelving frame of a furnace wagon is disclosed herein as having a first lifting device (3) that includes a shifting cradle (45), and a second lifting device (2) disposed at a distance from the first lifting device so that a shelving frame (8) is accommodated between the two lifting devices. The second lifting device includes a lifting cradle (15) capable of travel in the vertical direction, and a conveyer system carried by the lifting cradle. Further, the device includes an interlocking apparatus (33) for coupling the shifting cradle in an extended position to the lifting cradle (15) of the second lifting device (2). When coupled using the interlocking apparatus, the vertical movements of the two lifting cradles are synchronized.
Abstract:
A handling module for handling vehicle wheels in an installation for the surface treatment thereof and having at least two gripping units which are supported by a frame structure and each of which comprises a plurality of press-on elements which are pressable onto one or more counter surfaces of an individual vehicle wheel. At least one of the gripping units includes a translation device by which the press-on elements are movable in relation to the frame structure with a movement component which is parallel to the axis of rotation of a gripped vehicle wheel.
