Definitions

  • This invention relates to conveyors comprising a plurality of platforms adapted to travel along a predetermined path, the platforms being of a generally elongated plan form, the path of the conveyor having a constant-speed high-speed section and variable-speed sections at each end of the high speed section.
  • variable-speed sections the platforms slide laterally relative to one another and also move in a curved path to produce a speed variation the final high-speed direction of travel being in a direction at a substantial angle to the direction of movement in the low-speed section. Reversal of the lateral sliding may reduce the speed of the conveyor in a second variable-speed zone.
  • Such conveyors are used for the carriage of passengers and/or freight, and a particular use is for the provision of access to, or exit from, a constant-speed high-speed conveyor.
  • the variable-speed sections comprise acceleration and deceleration sections.
  • the platforms travel in a closed loop and for safety and stability reasons it is desirable to connect the platforms together so that gaps cannot be formed between adjacent platforms. This is particularly necessary in passenger-carrying sections.

  • the conveyor 1 comprises a constant high-speed section 2, shown foreshortened,
  • the particular embodiment illustrated is adapted to provide access to a constant high-speed conveyor 7 in the fonn of a belt. Passengers step onto the conveyor 1 at an entry 8 and are accelerated in the acceleration section 3. The speed of the high-speed section 2 is comparible with that of the conveyor 7, generally at approximately the same speed. Passengers transfer from conveyor I to conveyor 7 at any position along the high-speed section 2.
  • the conveyor 1 comprises a plurality of elongated platforms l0 travelling on supporting rails 24. The platforms 10 slide laterally relative to each other in the acceleration and deceleration sections 3 and 4.
  • the ends of the platforms are inclined to the longitudinal axis of each platform, thereby forming a straight edge when the platforms are inclined in the high-speed section and so facilitating passenger movement from conveyors l to 7 no gap being formed between them.
  • Driving means are provided for the platforms and can take the form in the slow speed section of worm gears engaging with pegs attached to the platform and can take the form, in the other sections, of linear motors, not illustrated.
  • the belt 7 will need to pass over the conveyor 1 at the deceleration section 4. This can be arranged by causing this belt 7 to be inclined slightly at the end of the constant-speed high-speed section 2. Alternatively the conveyor 1 can be arranged that the "tum-over section 6 occurs at the end of the constantspeed high-speed section 2. The platforms can then be decelerated at any convenient positions in the return path to the entry 8.
  • the conveyor 1 may also be used as a conveyor on its own, without any additional conveyor such as belt 7.

  • Pivot member 14 is fixed laterally, in that it does not slide along its associated recess 12. but is able to pivot in the recess about an axis coaxial with the axis of the recess. It is positioned in the recess 12 adjacent one end of the platform.
  • the slider 13 is mounted on a rod 15, by means of a pin 16, the rod 15 extending through a diametrical bore in the pivot member 14.
  • the rod has an intermediate abutment shoulder 17.
  • the shoulder 17 abuts against a flat surface on the pivot member 14, this being when the platforms are in their most closely adjacent positions.
  • the shoulder 17 is held in contact with the pivot member 14 by sliding forked locking member 18, described in more detail later.
  • the end of the rod is remote from the slider 13 has a lateral extension 19 to prevent the rod 15 from becoming completely disengaged from the pivot rod member 14.
  • the rod is in two parts, coupled at 20 by screws 21, seen more closely in FIGS. 6 and 7.

  • FIG. 5 illustrates the platforms in their relative positions as they travel round a vertical curve, corresponding to the turn-over section 6. It will be seen that the rod is unlocked and has extended by sliding through the pivot member 14. This is necessary to permit traversing of the curve. As shown in FIG. 5, the carriages of the platforms would still be in contact at their ends (indicated by letter O). A small further extension at the rod 15 is permissable to provide a gap R between the carriages if desired. Thus, as seen in FIG. 5, the lateral extension 19 at the end of the rod 15 is still spaced a small distance from the pivot member 14. This distance represents the maximum gap which can occur between the carriages in this section.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 illustrated in more detail the form and mounting, and actuation of, the forked locking member 18.
  • the pivot member 14 is pivotally mounted in a fixed support member 25 which is located in the recess 12 and fixed by screws 26. Screws 26 are seen more clearly in FIG. 8 which is a cross-section on the line Vl[I-Vlll of FIG. 6.
  • Support member 25 extends laterally in the recess 12 and has a transverse bore 27 in which is mounted a laterally extending guide 28.
  • the guide 28 acts as one of two guide and support members for the forked locking member 18. Extending from a bore 29 in the end of the support member 25 is a guide rod 30.

  • the forked locking member 18 has a slot 34, the sides of the slot engaging guiding surfaces formed on the guide 28.
  • Extension 35 extends normal to the axis of the guide 28, and carries a roller 36 at its end.
  • the roller is arranged to engage with cam surfaces on the conveyor support structure, not shown, to cause sliding of the forked locking member 18, against the action of compression spring 32.
  • the spring 32 acts to cause the forked locking member 18 to slide to a locking position, and the forked locking member is moved to unlock the rod 15 by the action of cam surfaces on the roller 36.
  • the mounting of the rollers 36 is readily seen in FIG. 7, and also in FIG. 9, which is a cross-section on the line IX-IX of FIG. 6.
  • FIG. 9 also illustrates the mounting of the forked locking member 18 on the guide 28.
  • Guide 28 has an enlarged outer end portion 37, which, in addition to retaining the locking member 18 on the guide 28, has an additional function, to be described later.
  • the ends of the forked locking member 18 are chamfered at 38 to assist in engagement of the fork with the rod 15 and to ensure that shoulder 17 on the rod 15 is pushed into close contact with the pivot 14.

  • Resilient bumpers 44 are positioned in the bore 42, for a purpose to be described later.
  • the platforms are in close juxtaposition, and a minimum space between the top surfaces of the platforms.
  • the forked locking member 18 is in the locking position, as shown in FIGS. 4, 6 and 7.
  • cam members on the support structure cause the locking members 18 to slide, to the right in FIGS. 6 and 7, unlocking the rods 15, enabling the platforms to move apart.
  • the platforms may then be locked together again until entering the next vertical curve, which will return the platforms to a load-carrying section.
  • the platforms will be unlocked during passage round this second curve and relocked on entering the load-carrying section.
  • the platforms will remain locked together in speed change sections, the arrangement permitting relative lateral sliding of the platforms by means of the slides 13.
  • a sliding and locking mechanism is provided at each end of each platform.
  • the mechanisms are opposed in that, for each pair of adjacent platforms the slider 13 at one end slides in one of the pair of platforms, while at the other end the slider slides in the other of the pair of platforms.
  • the pivot members 14 are at opposite ends on opposite sides of the platform.
  • each platform carries a pivot member adjacent one end of one side and another pivot member adjacent the other end of the other side.

  • the abutment member 50 is fixed in the extreme end of the recess 11 in which slides the slider 13.
  • the arrangement is such that in the high-speed section, the slider is in end contact with the abutment member. Any emergency stopping of the conveyor would normally tend to make the platforms slide laterally, with the slider 13 moving to the right in FIG. 10.
  • the abutment member 50 opposes this movement and therefore prevents transfer of the wedging loads to the guide rails.
  • means can be provided to lock together the slider 13 and abutment member 50.
  • the platforms can be locked together and no transverse loads, arising from any wedging action between platforms are then applied to the guide rails.

  • Attached to the abutment member 50 is an angled latch 52, seen more clearly in FIG. 12.
  • the latch is reciprocable in a vertical direction, that is normal to the platforms surface.

  • Formed in the upper surface of the arm 54 is a groove 55, the groove 55 engaging the previously described enlarged end portion 37 of the guide 28.
  • the arm 53 has a rectangular slot 56, providing for the mounting of the latch on the abutment member 50, the slot accommodating a guide 57 attached to the abutment member by a screw 58, the screw also retaining a disc 59 which overlaps the sides of the slot 56 and holds the latch on the guide 57.
  • Arm 53 also has a hollow extension 60 containing a compression spring 61.
  • Spring 61 acts on the guide 57.
  • the outer end of the arm 54 is chamfered at 62 and as the platforms slide laterally and enter the high-speed section, the slider 13 and abutment member 50 approach each other. At the end of the lateral movement the slider and abutment member come together.
  • the end portion 37 of guide 28 engages the chamfered portion 62 of the arm 54, forcing the latch 52 downwards.
  • the slider and abutment member finally come into contact and the latch member moves upwards, the end portions 37 engaging in the groove 55, thus locking the slider and abutment member together.
  • the latch 52 is unlocked at the end of the high speed section by a cam surface on the support structure indicated at 62a, engaging the end of the extension 60 of the arm 53, moving the latch downwards against the action of the spring. This releases the end portion 37 and allows the relative sliding of the platforms with the associated parting of the slider 13 and abutment 50.
  • the platforms After passage through the constant-speed high-speed section, the platforms can be decelerated before they commence the return to the loading position, in which case they traverse a vertical curve at a low speed, are then re-accelerated for the return run, decelerated again and passed round a further vertical curve to enter the constant-speed slow-speed section, for loading, either by passengers or freight.
  • the platforms can be passed round the first vertical curve at high speed, continuing into the high speed return.
  • the platforms, in the high-speed return zone will have moved laterally relative to each other, from one extreme position to another.
  • the one extreme position, in the high-speed load-carrying section, is illustrated in FIG. 10, while the other extreme, the high speed return, is illustrated in FIG. 14.
  • the support member 25 at the end of one platform, with its associated slider in the adjacent platform, is in abutting engagement with the slider associated with the pivot member in the adjacent platform and a second latch mechanism is used to secure the platform in this position.

  • bumpers 51 attached to the pivot support members 25 are the same as those illustrated in FIG. 11. However, bumpers can be fitted to the sliders, instead, as illustrated in FIG. 7.
