This invention pertains to an arrangement for conveying, handling and storing of solid bodies, bulk material, jelly products or liquids, which arrangement characterized by a plurality of rotary shafts arranged at a distance apart from each other, each of said shafts being equipped with one or more cams, the distance between adjacent shafts being approximately equal to or greater than the length of the cams.

A method for conveying a non-free flowing paste where the non-free flowing paste is loaded into a vessel or container having a conical lower portion designed to provide mass flow of the paste. A gas is applied to the vessel to cause the paste to flow out. The paste may be transported to another vessel having a mass flow conical lower portion where it may be stored. The paste may then be discharged using a gas to transport the paste to a third vessel having a mass flow conical lower portion where...

A conveyor conveys a sheet member in a forward direction past a plurality of wheels rotatable about axes inclined to the forward direction. The wheels are mounted above the sheet and may be lowered to engage frictionally the upper surface of the sheet and thereby effect a side-ways shift as the sheet is moved forwards by the conveyor.

An article conveying apparatus converts vertical motion to horizontal motion. An arcuate slide moves the article from a vertical orientation to a horizontal orientation then onto a horizontally pivoted cradle. The cradle is offset pivoted permitting the article to pivot the cradle to a discharge position. Then the article rolls off the cradle down an inclined ramp to an output port. Suitable guiding and cushioning is provided.

The present invention relates to conveying means comprising a preferable endless single cable means and a number of elements attached to form a row thereon, which elements are provided to transport the objects intended to be transported, to guide the conveying means and to cooperate with driving means for the same. The cable means is provided to be deflected and torsioned in all directions forming a connection between the elements which allows them to be deflected in all directions in relation t...

A conveying system comprising a drive chain and at least one conveying carrier, the conveying system being flexible for the most different goods to be conveyed. The conveying carrier can be brought into detachable engagement with the drive chain, the drive chain comprising chain links arranged in a row and interconnected via a chain joint, a chain joint being formed by a sleeve pertaining to a first chain link and by a bolt passed through the sleeve and pertaining to a second chain link, at leas...

A conveying system having particular use for a stamping press. One or more endless belt conveyors are located in the space beneath the die shoe and the bolster plate of the stamping press, and the stamped parts falling from the die cavity are collected on the conveyors. Each conveyor includes an endless belt which is supported at its ends by a pair of spindles, and at least one of the spindles is provided with a non-circular bore. A drive shaft extends through the aligned bores in the spindles o...
