Abstract
1374530 Conveying system B FLODELL 1 Feb 1972 4721/72 Heading B7L A conveying system comprises wheeled load carriers 6 each having a drive unit, such as an electric motor 13, driving at least one roller 17. which co-operates with a guide rail 3 forming part of a track 1 along which the carriers are thus moved, in which the drive unit 13 is pivotally connected to the load carrier 6 for relative rotation about a vertical axis at pivot 12. The drive unit also carries a second roller 22 which is pressed against the opposite side of the guide rail 3 by a spring in a tubular member 19. Preferably the vertical axis of pivot 12 is in the vertical longitudinal median plane of the guide rail 3. The track may have crossing points at which a guide rail segment 27 may be rotated about vertical axis 26 to divert the carrier thereon from rail A to rail B, the orientation of the load carrier 6 remaining fixed when the rail segment 27 and drive unit, i.e. motor, rollers, etc. are rotated. Instead of two rollers 17 and 22 rotating about vertical stub shafts 16 and 20 as shown, a single flanged roller (28), Fig. 5 (not shown), rotating about a horizontal shaft may be employed, and pressed against the top of the guide rail 3 by the weight of the carrier and/or the action of a spring (29). Alternatively, Fig. 6, the carrier may be suspended from overhead rails 31 and 32 and driven by a roller 36 co-operating with a central guide rail 30.
