The invention is a conveying wire (2) with disc-shaped conveying members (8) for use in endless tube conveyor systems. The wire (3) consists of a number of twisted strands (4) that each are made of thin threads or fibers, and including an outer jacket (6) to which the conveying members (8) are fastened directly by injection molding, where the outer jacket (6) consists of a polymer with a melting temperature which is lower than the melting temperature of the plastic material from which the convey...

A portable conveying device comprising an inclining base having a conveyor belt, a plurality of articulating conveying elements having powered cargo rollers defining a conveying device transport plane, the conveying elements extendable from and retractable into the base by drive means. The drive means may include a pair of spaced-apart spur gears which have teeth that engage with rack teeth of the conveying elements. The conveying device may include a hollow universal joint having axes of rotati...

A conveying unit (1) capable of stopping at precise points in an assembly line or the like comprises a conveyor (10), a lift (20) and a support (30) as main components. The conveyor (10) is a double-belt type belt conveyor wherein synchro rubber belts (13) are set over drive pulleys (11) and plural driven pulleys (12) and the pulleys (11) are connected with each other with a shaft (14). The lift (20) is constructed of two sets of frames on which the elevation of the conveyer (10) can be varied t...

When a pulling force acts on an insertion joint in a conveying apparatus used for transferring an article conveyed on a main conveying path to a branch conveying path, an endless chain separates from an article support body and the joint state is disrupted. By contrast, when a collar section abuts against an outer end surface on the side of a moving member, an outward concave section inwardly separates from an inclined expanding surface and a tongue piece section can be withdrawn against the ela...

An apparatus is provided for transferring products, in particular eggs, comprising at least one height, at least one row of conveying units positioned under an endless sorting conveyor, wherein the products are discharged in a well-defined manner from the sorting conveyor into the conveying units, are received by the conveying units, and are subsequently delivered to a packaging device thereunder. Each conveying unit consists of at least two parts which can move relative to each other, in partic...

A conveying device (1) which is particular in that the conveying device comprises a plurality of conveying elements (2), where each conveying element (2) comprises a chain box element (4) in which at least one transport roller (3) is rotatably fixed such that rollers (3) arranged in adjacent conveying elements (2) define the conveying device transport plane, and that chain box elements (4) of adjacent conveying elements are interconnected in such a way that one conveying element may articulate i...

A roller conveyor has three-phase synchronous motors and feed rollers. The three-phase synchronous motors are operationally coupled to the respective feed rollers. The three-phase synchronous motors are driven by a three-phase AC voltage supplied from a three-phase AC power supply and the three-phase synchronous motors output a torque. Each feed roller is caused to roll to convey a work by the torque output from the corresponding three-phase synchronous motor. This structure provides an inexpens...

An apparatus and method for forming batches in predetermined count or length of laminar articles standing on edge for transfer from multiple supply lines/chutes to a common delivery line is disclosed. The common delivery line is located operatively below the supply lines/chutes. The axis of movement of the common delivery line is perpendicular to the axes of movement of the supply lines/chutes. The apparatus includes a horizontal platform on which the laminar articles, such as biscuits are led f...

A conveying apparatus is disclosed and which includes a supporting frame; an article transporting bed which is oriented in spaced relation relative to the supporting frame; a plurality of resilient supports mounted on both the supporting frame and the article transporting bed and which supports the article transporting bed in spaced relation relative to the supporting frame; and a drive assembly borne by the supporting frame and which provides an oscillating force having a plurality of component...

There are provided linear section moving chain conveyors for moving carrier trucks on linear sections of a guide rail, curvilinear section moving chain conveyors for moving the carrier trucks on curvilinear sections of a guide rail, and conveyance interval variable portions for moving the carrier trucks on borders between the linear sections and the curvilinear sections while gradually varying the interval between the carrier trucks. When the carrier trucks are moved from a linear section to the...
