Abstract

828,463. Conveyers. KING Ltd., G. W. March 3, 1958 [March 1, 1957], No. 6918/57. Class 104 (2). In a conveyer system having load carriers propelled by driving dogs projecting upwardly from an endless driving chain running in a fixed track and supporting the load carriers, an arrestor mechanism comprises an air or fluid-operated vertically-movable stop 21 which projects into the path of a load carrier and arrests it and retracts only when a driving dog is in proper engagement with the carrier. The dog is ejected by a ramp 15 on a slidable angle-plate 13 held against stops by an air or fluid-operated ram 14, the ramp engaging a plunger 12 on the carrier which ejects the dog. The chain passes over a resilient ramp 31 which normally urges the dogs into engagement. A pivoted lever 24 engages a stop 26 on the stop 21 and a stop on a rod 16 slidably mounted in the plate 13 adjacent one end of the ramp. When the driving dog is not completely ejected the rod 16 rises and tilts the lever into engagement with a stop 27 on a vertically slidable back-stop 22 to maintain it in arresting position. A spring-loaded lever 33 pivoted on a bracket on the plate 13 has a projection 36 extending into the path of a stop on the rod 16 should a driving dog be not properly engaged, the plate 13 slides forwardly against the action of the ram 14 and a roller 38 on the lever 33 engages a fixed ramp 39 and forces the lever to pivot, depressing the rod 16 and disengaging the driving dog, the plate then returns to its initial position. When a driving dog is correctly engaged the rod 16 rises, operating a valve for an air or fluid-operated cylinder 19 to retract the stop 21, allowing the carrier to be driven forwardly. The stop and rod then return to their initial positions. The ram 14 and stop 21 may be controlled by springs. A spacer comprising a spring-loaded pivoted lever 28 contacts an arrested carrier and pivots so that the lever arrests a succeeding carrier. The Provisional Specification describes a stopmember 21 comprising a double-armed lever operated by an air cylinder. Specifications 701,610 and 785,801 are referred to.
