Abstract

Vorrichtung und Verfahren zum Transport eines Gegenstands mittels einer Auflagekomponente.
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren zum Transport eines Gegenstands (St) zu einer Verarbeitungsvorrichtung mittels einer Auflagekomponente (1). Die Verarbeitungsvorrichtung weist einen Boden (10) und eine Seitenwand (11) auf. Die Zuführeinrichtung weist eine Auflagekomponente (1) zum Tragen des Gegenstands (St), eine Verschiebekomponente und eine Aktivierungskomponente auf. Die Auflagekomponente (1) ist in eine Zuführrichtung (Z) auf die Verarbeitungsvorrichtung zu verschiebbar. In die Seitenwand (11) der Verarbeitungsvorrichtung ist ein Schlitz (6) eingelassen die Verschiebekomponente ist dazu ausgestaltet, die Auflagekomponente (1) quer oder schräg zur Zuführrichtung (Z) durch den Schlitz (6) hindurch zu verschieben. Die Aktivierungskomponente ist dazu ausgestaltet, die Verschiebekomponente dergestalt zu aktivieren, dass die Verschiebekomponente die Auflageeinrichtung durch den Schlitz (6) hindurch verschiebt und die Seitenwand (11) einen auf der Auflageeinrichtung befindlichen Gegenstand (St) von der Auflageeinrichtung abstreift, so dass der abgestreifte Gegenstand (St) auf den Boden (10) der Verarbeitungsvorrichtung fällt.

Device and method for transporting an object by means of a support component.
The invention relates to a device and a method for transporting an article (St) to a processing device by means of a support component (1). The processing device has a bottom (10) and a side wall (11). The feeder comprises a support component (1) for supporting the object (St), a displacement component and an activation component. The support component (1) is displaceable in a feed direction (Z) to the processing device. In the side wall (11) of the processing device, a slot (6) is inserted, the displacement component is configured to move the support component (1) transversely or obliquely to the feed direction (Z) through the slot (6). The activation component is configured to activate the translation component such that the translation component translates the bearing means through the slot (6) and the sidewall (11) scrapes an article (St) located on the support from the bearing means such that the stripped article (St) falls to the bottom (10) of the processing device.
