Definitions

• the present invention relates to a conveyor train, comprising at least one link chain, which consists of a plurality of chain links each having two links, wherein at least one chain link comprises an angle bracket with egg nem fastening section, and at least one conveyor, which via a mounting section on the fastening section of the Angle holder can be fastened / fastened by means of a fastener.
• a link chain of such a conveyor line is, for example, out
• EP 1 592 898 B l is known, in which a win kelhalter is arranged on a single plate of a plate, which is angled away with its fastening portion outward from the plate chain longitudinal axis.
• holes are formed as fasteners, through which a rivet or a screw as fastening means for fastening a För derstoff in the manner of a cup, a plate or a cell are passed.
• the mounting section of the conveying means has, for example, connection elements in the form of holes which have to be aligned with the fastening element of the angle holder in order to attach the fastening means.
• connection dimensions for the conveyor also vary.
• the distance of the fastening element changes in the fastening section of the angle holder to a central longitudinal axis of the link chain.
• the mounting section of the conveyor must be adapted accordingly for each size of a link chain.
• the assembly section of the conveying means must also be pre-positioned exactly with respect to the fastening section of the angle holder until the fastening means in the form of a screw or rivet are passed through the corresponding holes in the assembly section and the fastening section, as a result of which the assembly is difficult.
• the task is solved by a conveyor line with the features of the independent claim.
• Advantageous further developments of the conveyor line are specified in the dependent claims and in the description, individual features of the advantageous further developments being able to be combined with one another in a technically meaningful manner.
• the object is achieved by a conveyor train with the features mentioned at the outset, in which an alignment element is formed on the fastening section of the angle bracket and / or on the assembly section, so that the assembly section and in particular the conveying means, before the fastening by means of the fastening means, to the Angle holder can be positioned in a predetermined manner.
• the basic idea of the invention therefore provides that the fastening section of the angle holder and / or the mounting section are shaped and / or designed such that the mounting section before being fastened by means of the fastening means first in a manner given by the alignment element to the fastening section of the angle holder can be applied and preferably also held in this position as long as no further forces act on the mounting section. Due to the alignment element, no additional effort has to be made to keep the mounting section in the desired position during the fastening of the fastening means.
• the alignment element can be designed in the form of a recess, a depression, an elevation or a projection in or on the fastening section and / or the mounting section.
• the mounting section could have a recess as an alignment element, the shape of which corresponds at least in sections to the outer contour of the mounting section of the angle holder, so that the orientation of the mounting section on the mounting section of the angle holder is predetermined by the recess.
• the aligning element is formed on the mounting section and a corresponding aligning element is formed on the angle holder, in particular on a fastening section of the angle holder.
• Both the assembly section and the fastening section of the angle holder then also have the corresponding alignment elements.
• the corresponding alignment element comprises in particular a complementary shape to the alignment element. If, for example, the alignment element is formed by a jump, the corresponding alignment element would be formed by a correspondingly shaped recess or recess.
• the alignment element is formed by an elevation surrounding a hole, which in the aligned state engages in another hole which is complementary to the elevation, the fastening means being passed through both holes in the attached state.
• the pre-centering therefore takes place directly in the area in which the fastening section of the angle holder is connected to the mounting section by means of the fastening means.
• the fastening means can be designed, for example, as a screw or a rivet.
• the funding is designed in particular in the manner of a cup, a plate or a cell.
• the mounting section can be in particular in one piece and thus integrated into the funding itself. But it can also be provided that the mounting section is formed on an element with which the conveying means is non-positively, positively and / or cohesively connected or ver bindable.
• the link chain is in particular formed with a plurality of chain links which are arranged alternately and pivotably in relation to one another, a pin ei nes chain link within a bushing of an adjacent chain link is rotatably arranged.
• the link chain is therefore in particular a bushing conveyor chain.
• the preferably self-contained link chain can consist of alternately arranged outer chain links and inner chain links, wherein the two bolts, each of which is connected to the outer link plates of an outer chain link in a rotationally fixed manner, are arranged within one of two bushings which are connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the inner link plates of the adjacent inner chain links.
• the link chain can also be designed as a cranked chain, in which each chain link has a bolt connected non-rotatably to the link plates and a socket connected non-rotatably to the link plates, the pin of a chain link being arranged in the socket of an adjacent chain link.
• a chain link thus comprises in particular either two bushings, two bolts or a bushing and a bolt.
• the link chain is designed, in particular, at least over a section comprising several chain links as a stiffened chain strand, so that adjacent chain links of the chain strand or the entire chain can be freely pivoted relative to one another for deflection in one direction of rotation, where in the case of a pivoting movement in the direction opposite to the direction of rotation in itself known manner is limited, for example, by the formation of stops / counter-stops on adjacent chain links.
• the fastening section of the angle bracket arranged on the first link plate is directed inwards in the direction of the second link plate, that is, it is directed towards the inside of the link chain.
• a fastening section of the angle holder which has a fastening element in the form of a connection bore, a hole or a pin be arranged between the two plates and thus in particular inside or above / below a central longitudinal axis of a plate chain consisting of the chain links.
• the fastening element of a chain link or all fastening elements of all chain links can / can always be arranged centrally in the middle between the plates even with different dimensions of the plates and the angle bracket.
• the corresponding mounting sections of the funding must not be adapted to the connecting dimensions of their connecting elements to different sized link chains, since the relative position of the fasteners to the central longitudinal axis of the link chain does not change as the link chain size changes. This is achieved in particular when the fastening element is arranged centrally between the two tabs.
• the angle holder is formed in one piece with the tab.
• the angle bracket could already be designed accordingly during forging, casting, or punching the bracket.
• the bracket can be formed subsequently by deforming (bending) the initially flat bracket.
• the angle bracket is attached to the first bracket as a separate component.
• a corresponding angle bracket could be attached to the outside or inside of the first tab in a form-fitting, force-fitting and / or cohesive manner, for example screwed, riveted or welded on.
• the angle bracket could thus also be retrofitted to a link chain.
• a corresponding angle bracket is fastened in the area of the bushings / bolts to the corresponding tab.
• an angle holder is arranged on both the first plate and the second plate, the fastening sections of which are preferably aligned in the direction of the other plate.
• the fastening sections of the angle brackets arranged on the opposite plates are arranged one behind the other, in particular in the longitudinal direction of the chain link. The arrangement of angle brackets on both links distributes the force acting on the chain link more evenly.
• the angle bracket is in particular that section of the chain link which extends from a link to a fastening section which is arranged approximately parallel to a plane of the chain link spanned by the bushes / bolts.
• the angle brackets therefore extend from the respective first tab in the direction of the opposite tab and are in particular not directly or directly connected to the opposite (second) tab, since this would cause additional assembly effort.
• each tab consists of exactly one individual tab
• a tab is composed of two or more individual tabs, where at least one individual tab shows the first bracket with the angle bracket.
• adjacent chain links each have an angle bracket on plates arranged opposite one another with respect to the longitudinal axis of the plate chain.
• adjacent chain links each have an angle bracket on the same sides arranged with respect to the longitudinal side of the link chain longitudinal axis.
• a conveyor in particular a steel link belt, a bucket elevator or a cell bucket elevator with a conveyor strand according to the invention is proposed, the conveyor strand being self-contained.
• the conveyor strand also has rollers or guides with which the conveyor strand is guided on a corresponding guide (for example rail) or corresponding roller of the conveyor.
