For transport heads with a different number of transport rails resulting in regular arrangement of the transport strips corresponding angle.
  • the transport head must then place the recorded elements on a conveyor element in each case after the recording of elements to be unloaded.
  • a conveyor element In order to avoid waiting times by conveying and preparing a new set of elements, preferably two conveyor elements are used. One set of elements can thus be prepared in the meantime, while the other conveying element is empty. The conveyance of the elements and the preparation is carried out alternately by immediately after the deposition of the discharged elements of the next set is prepared on the same conveyor element.
  • the elements can also be provided by another feeding device.
  • This can be, for example, a separating device for separating and transporting stacked elements.
  • cartridges 10 to 13 and 10 "to 13" of the same size are also advantageous to use cartridges 10 to 13 and 10 "to 13" of the same size. After the first to fourth cassettes 10 to 13 are empty by the unloading and loading operation and the requisite feeding of new or discharged elements, and accordingly the fifth to eighth cassettes 10 'to 13' are full, only the fifth to eighth cassettes become 10 'to 13' exchanged for cassettes with new elements. The conveying direction of the conveying elements 15 to 18 is reversed, so that now supplied from the cassettes 10 'to 13' new elements and discharged into the first to fourth cartridges 10 to 13. Thus, it is sufficient to replace only the first to fourth cassette 10 to 13 or the fifth to eighth cassette 10 "to 13 '.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif destinés au chargement et déchargement d'éléments supports (1, 1') dans lesquels plusieurs jeux d'éléments peuvent être déposés dans une disposition systématique. Ce dispositif comprend une tête de transport (5) comportant au moins une barre de transport (6, 7, 8, 9) destinée à la réception simultanée d'au moins un jeu d'éléments. Un élément support (1, 1') est mis dans une position définie et au moins un jeu de nouveaux éléments est préparé. La tête de transport (5) peut être déplacée entre au moins un élément transporteur (16, 17, 18) et un élément support (1, 1') se trouvant dans une position définie et reçoit le ou les jeux de nouveaux éléments par respectivement une barre de transport. Au moins un jeu d'éléments à décharger est pris en charge par la tête de transport (5) respective. Un jeu de nouveaux éléments est déposé sur l'emplacement de dépôt libéré par la prise en charge du ou des jeux d'éléments à décharger de l'élément support (1, 1').
