Abstract

1338051 Pneumatic conveyers LAMSON ENG CO Ltd 12 May 1972 [13 May 1971] 14671/71 Heading B8A A pneumatic despatch container system comprises a main station connected to an auxiliary station by a tube through which a carrier may be propelled pneumatically, and locating means at each station controlling operating means which, when a carrier is at that station, move a door at the station and a cover on the carrier. Fig. 3 shows a carrier 12 having two movable covers 17 18, pivotally opened by depressing a pair of arms 21, 23 respectively. At the main station or auxiliary station, Fig. 6, the carrier is supported by slider 28 which is biased into the position shown by springs and may be withdrawn from its supporting position by operation of solenoid 36. Levers (46), 47 are driven by a motor (56, Fig. 5, not shown) to operate the cover 17 or 18 of the carrier by depressing arms 21 or 23. The door of the station is automatically opened by a motor (68, Fig. 10, not shown) on arrival of the carrier at the station. On a signal from the main station, the motor (56) operates to close the cover of the carrier, the motor (68) operates to close the door of the station, slider 28 is withdrawn from the tube to allow the carrier to drop inside the tube and the pneumatic means operates to suck the carrier through the tube to the other station.
