Abstract

PURPOSE: To reduce labor for changing a hanger article and to safely and surely carry by attaching a gliding rail to the top part full length of a carrying rail and providing a friction carrying belt conveyor engaged with a hook for slide- driving the hanger product on the gliding rail. CONSTITUTION: A slit 1A of a carrying direction is provided in the top part full length of a pipe rail 1, a gliding rail 2 made of a resin, etc., so as to be glidable is inserted and fixed in the slit 1A, its tip is projecting from the slit 1A and the hook 3 of a hanger product is drooped and supported. A friction carrying belt conveyor 4 friction engaged with the hook 3 is endlessly driven in circulation between a driving pulley and a follower pulley by a guiding member G having a press contact guiding groove G1 for press contacting a friction engaged belt surface 4A with the hook 3. The return path side of the belt conveyor 4 is guided by a return path guiding groove G2. The hook 3 of a hanger product F friction engaged with the belt conveyor 4 is glided and moved on the gliding rail 2 following the operation of the belt conveyor 4.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a garment which is hung on a hanger and directly conveyed.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a means for carrying clothes by hanging them on a hanger, for example, as shown in FIG.
The trolley T is hung on the carriage so that it can travel freely, and a large number of hangers (hereinafter referred to as hanger products) F, which are hung on the hanger rod H with clothes and other products, are hung, and the trolley T is manually pushed on the transport rail R. Either it is carried out, or it is carried by being locked by a chain feeder (not shown) or the like that locks on the trolley T, and then carried on the carrying rail R in a predetermined direction.

[0003]

In the above-mentioned conventional example, it takes a lot of labor and time to hang a large number of hanger products F on and off the hanger rod H of the trolley T. Not only is it necessary to store and collect empty trolleys T that are not suspended, but it is also necessary to secure a place to store unnecessary trolleys T, and to transport a large number of hanger products. A large number of trolleys T must be prepared, and in addition, there is a risk that the trolleys T may be shaken outward by centrifugal force during traveling in the curved portion of the transport rail R and fall off from the rail. Had the problem of.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Therefore, according to the present invention, a sliding rail for suspending and supporting the hook is attached to the entire top portion of a transport rail for directly hanging and transporting the hook of a hanger product, and the hook is frictionally engaged. Then, the above-mentioned problem is solved by providing a belt conveyor for friction transport for slidingly driving the hanger product on the sliding rail.

[0005]

The hook of the hanger product frictionally engaged with the friction conveyor belt conveyor is slidably moved on the slide rail along with the operation of the belt conveyor and conveyed in the operation direction of the belt conveyor.

[0006]

1 and 2 are perspective views of a main part of the present invention, in which a pipe-shaped carrier rail (hereinafter referred to as a pipe rail) is shown.
A slit 1A in the carrying direction is provided on the entire length of the top of 1, and a sliding rail 2 made of resin or the like that slides smoothly is inserted and fixed in the slit 1A, and the tip of the sliding rail 2 is projected above the slit 1A to hook the hanger 3 of the hanger product F. Suspend. And the hook 3
The friction transport belt conveyor 4 frictionally engaged with the pressing guide groove G that presses the frictionally engaged belt surface 4A against the hook 3.
The guide member G having 1 drives endlessly circulating between a drive pulley and a driven pulley (not shown), and the return side (not shown) of the belt conveyor 4 is guided to the return guide groove G2.

When the pipe rail 1 forms a curved path as shown in FIG. 3, the friction conveyor belt conveyor 4 is a curved belt conveyor 4 suspended between a conical drive pulley and a driven pulley. In order to ensure the frictional transmission of the belt as necessary, a rough top belt having a rough surface with a large frictional force or a large number of ridges orthogonal to the conveying direction are projected on the frictional transmission surface of the belt shown in FIG. A toothed belt having the provided belt teeth 4B may be used. Further, in order to further increase the pressing force of the belt surface 4A against the hook 3, the airbag B may be provided on the belt surface 4A as shown in FIG.

[0008]

According to the present invention, since the sliding rail for directly suspending and supporting the hook of each hanger product is provided on the transport rail, it is not necessary to suspend and transport a large number of hanger products on the hanger trolley. A large amount of labor saving work for changing over many hanger products has been achieved, eliminating the need to store and collect empty trolleys, and even transporting many hanger products smoothly on curved routes without the risk of falling, and Since it is a friction drive, storage, starting, and stopping of hanger products can be performed at any position on the transport route, and there are excellent effects such as safe and reliable transport on both straight and curved routes.
