Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a monorail conveyor track according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Sorting systems increasingly have to meet the requirements of existing ones Buildings are customizable. This is particularly important for the conveyor tracks, a line that matches the circumstances of a building can be adjusted 1: 1. This requires that horizontal as well as vertical curves, e.g. to another Driving to work level must be realized. With certain Conveyors can also use restrictions in which the wagons combined into units if necessary, return empty to the starting point on the outward journey. In order to achieve the highest possible throughput, so-called endlessly rotating systems are preferred by the market. The procurement costs for such funding or Keeping sorting systems as low as possible is increasingly being used Monorails - also called monorail systems - for use.
  • each trolley has two trolleys, the axis of rotation arranged symmetrically around a vertical are rotatably supported relative to the trolley and wherein one drive wheel per trolley is provided.
  • the disclosed monorail horizontal Driving on curves.
  • a sorting system is known from US 5,701,992 in which the cars used roll on two treads. Due to the design with a vertical joint between the two trolleys and the car horizontal curves of a relatively small radius become. Two trolleys are included for each car assigned a drive wheel.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object to specify a monorail conveyor track that is both trafficable of horizontal as well as vertical curves allowed and where the number of parts per wagon is further reduced.
  • This object is achieved according to the invention in that two adjacent carriages are always coupled via a chassis and that each carriage can be pivoted relative to the associated chassis via a horizontal axis of rotation and that each carriage can be rotated relative to the associated chassis via a vertical axis of rotation.
  • Figure 1 shows in cross section a horizontally arranged and substantially U-shaped rail 8, the is mounted on a mounting rail 9.
  • Horizontal arranged here means that the so-called base of the Character U lies horizontally and thus the opening of the The letter U points upwards in the usual direction.
  • the Profile rails 8 have inside to increase the Rigidity bars 60 on.
  • This fixed connection, not shown in Figure 1 between edition 12 and carrier car 10 can as Screw connection to be formed.
  • pro Carriage 10 provided two pairs of such idlers 1; from Those skilled in the art are also referred to as castors 1.
  • the profile rail 8 has parallel on the legs of the U-shape an outer, essentially flat tread to the base 61 for the castors 1. Allow caster wheels no guidance along a given lane. Therefore a chassis 7 is provided, which is longitudinal with respect to the guide the roadway predetermined by the rail 8 Guide rollers 2 is guided. A ball joint 4 couples this Chassis 7 and with a carriage 10 or its associated Edition 12. It should be noted that the chassis 7 and the carriage 10 in the usual horizontal position. Per chassis 7 two ball joints 4 are to be provided.
  • the ball joint 4 has a center or pivot point 17 on the in two non-collinear axes of rotation is included, with these two axes of rotation the degrees of movement of the ball joint 4 represent.
  • the usage a ball joint 4 is not mandatory.
  • the Coupling of car 10 or edition 12 with the chassis 7 can also be made with a joint that has two degrees of freedom having. In the present disposition according to the Fig. 1, these are a vertical axis of rotation 24 and a horizontal Axis of rotation 25. This makes the support 12 or Carriage 10 opposite the chassis 7 on the horizontal axis of rotation 25 pivoted. In this preferred embodiment the present invention is thus the Carriage 10 opposite the chassis 7 about the vertical axis of rotation 24 rotatably guided, so that horizontal turns be made possible.
  • the elevation according to FIG. 1 are on the right a busbar mounted insulated on the profile rail 6 20 and brushes 21 arranged on the carriage 10, which is provided with a protective cover 22.
  • the carriage 10 - also called carrier car or sorting car - carries one Cross band carrier 16, which in turn is a cross band and a Cross belt roll 11 carries and shown only rudimentary in Fig. 1 is.
  • Energy can be supplied by a motor for actuating the cross belt 11 can be, as well as busbar 20 and brush 21 data are also transmitted.
  • Left of the profile rail 8 is the stationary linear motor 18 in a sectional view an initiator plate 19 is shown on the support 12 attached.
  • FIG. 2a is the elevation and in Figure 2b is the floor plan of the chassis 7 shown.
  • the chassis 7 is formed by a chassis support 13, by two securing rollers 6 and two pairs of guide rollers 2. Between a pair of the guide rollers 2 has a ball joint 4 and in its fulcrum 17 is with the reference symbol 24 denotes the vertical axis of rotation.
  • the chassis 7 has regarding the car 10 no supporting function, below of each ball joint 4 is a central stabilizing role 5 arranged around the undercarriage together with the to carry two locking rollers 6 or in an upright position Able to lead.
  • Die Stabilizing rollers 5 roll on a central tread 64, which is based on the U-shape of the profile rail 8, see. the illustration in FIG. 1.
  • FIG 3 shows several assembled into a composition Carriage 10 in a horizontal curve.
  • the four per carriage 10 are not shown completely provided roller carrier 3 for the idlers 1. From this The illustration can be seen when using swivel castors 1 only one direction of travel d of such a monorail is possible. For a closed web this represents however, not a limitation.
  • the rotation between the undercarriage 7 and carriage 10 takes place via the vertical axis of rotation 24.
  • the ball joint 4 is with a mounting flange 14, which consists of a thread and a Nut formed on the profile 15 (not shown in Fig. 3) the edition 12 attached.
  • Figure 4 shows the side view through a composition of carriages 10, which is a predetermined by the profile rail 8 vertical Driving on a curve.
  • the required rotation between the chassis 7 and carriage 10 takes place on the horizontal axis of rotation 25.
  • the supporting function of the idlers 1 on the outer running surface 61 of the profile rail 8 good to see.
  • the outer tread 61 are the inner treads 62 arranged for the securing rollers 6.
  • the securing rollers 6 Running gear and carriage 10.
  • this embodiment of the present Invention are only two locking rollers per chassis 6 are provided, may be in further embodiments it may be appropriate, e.g. also four securing rolls per Arrange chassis.
  • the drive specified in this embodiment with A linear motor can also be mechanical, form or frictional drive form to be replaced, for example with a chain drive, when a car is serrated 10 intervene in the running chain and thereby the relevant one Carriage 10 is moved.
