Abstract

1,007,533. Conveyers. SCHWEIZERISCHE INDUSTRIE-GES. July 13, 1962 [July 17, 1961], No. 27083/62. Heading B8A. A conveyer system in which articles 1 are fed in line along a reciprocating plate conveyer 3 at the end of which they are discharged singly by pushers 16, 18 incorporates a movable stop 10 which temporarily impedes the movement of the rest of the line while the end articles are being moved into discharge position. This stop is biased to an inoperative position and is released for operative movement by engagement with the articles themselves. The conveyer 3 is driven at 5 by a crank system (not shown) which ensures slow forward and quick return movements of the conveyer surface in its own plane, so that the articles are jigged along it. The stop 10 includes a forked article support 7 which, when the stop is pivoted upwardly into the position shown, lifts the leading article 1 to block the flow on conveyer 3. When the stop is returned to its inoperative position (with the support 7 parallel to the surface of conveyer 3) the end 12a of spring-loaded lever 12 engages the L-shaped recess in the fixed stop 13 and further movement of the stop is thereby prevented until the leading article on support 7 has been advanced sufficiently to deflect lever 12 against its spring 14. Each operation of the stop is accompanied by a cyclic movement, indicated at 17, of the carrier 16 which thus moves article 1a into position 1b and article 1b into a position (not shown) on the head of pusher 18 but still in the original conveyer plane. Final discharge is by raising this pusher into the position 1c.
