Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The terms used are terms selected in consideration of the functions in the embodiments, and the meaning of the terms may vary depending on the user, the intention or the precedent of the operator, and the like. Therefore, the meaning of the terms used in the following embodiments is defined according to the definition when specifically defined in this specification, and unless otherwise defined, it should be interpreted in a sense generally recognized by those skilled in the art.

1 is a configuration of the conveyor guide conveying apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1, the conveyor 10 guide transport apparatus 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a pair of conveyor guides 110 and a driver 130.

The pair of conveyor guides 110 are members installed on both sides of the conveyor 10 to guide and support the article 15 transported along the conveyor 10. For example, the pair of conveyor guides 110 are provided to face the first conveyor guide 111 installed on one side of the conveyor 10 and the first conveyor guide 111 on the other side of the conveyor 10. And a second conveyor guide 112. In this case, the shape of the conveyor guide 110 may be formed differently according to the type of the article 15.

In addition, any one of the pair of conveyor guide 110 may be fixedly installed on one side of the conveyor (10). That is, the first conveyor guide 111 is horizontally moved on the conveyor 10 in accordance with the size of the article 15 by the drive unit 130 to be described later, the second conveyor guide 112 is the conveyor 10 Can be fixed to one side of the. In this case, the article 15 may be guided by moving the first conveyor guide 111 toward the second conveyor guide 112 by a predetermined distance according to the size of the article 15.

In addition, the pair of conveyor guides 110 can all move variably. That is, the first conveyor guide 111 and the second conveyor guide 112 may be horizontally aligned on the upper surface of the conveyor 10 to align the article 15 to the center of the conveyor 10 or to a predetermined position. .

On the other hand, the drive unit 130 is installed on one side of the conveyor 10, or are respectively installed on both sides to move any one of the pair of conveyor guide 110 to a predetermined position according to the size of the article (15). The driver 130 drives the conveyor guide 110 uniformly using one power source. Hereinafter, the driving unit 130 for driving only the first conveyor guide 111 of the pair of conveyor guides 110 will be described in detail.

Specifically, the drive unit 130 includes a first motor 131, a first drive shaft 133, a plurality of first gearbox 135 and a plurality of second gears 137.

The first motor 131 outputs power to the first drive shaft 133, which will be described later, as a power source of the driving unit 130. The first motor 131 is installed on one side of the conveyor, the type and shape of the first motor 131 may be different as long as it can rotate the first drive shaft 133. In addition, it is preferable to move the first conveyor guide 111 to the driving unit 130 by only one first motor 131.

The first drive shaft 133 has a long rod shape and is installed in a direction parallel to the conveyor 10. In addition, one end of the first driving shaft 133 is connected to the output side of the first motor 131 to transmit power, and is supported through the plurality of first gear boxes 135.
