Definitions
- the present invention relates to a transport system for transferring empty luggage trolleys (so-called luggage trolleys) from different floors of a building complex composed of several buildings to one or more luggage trolley depot locations, with at least one paternoster lift in each individual building for receiving and vertically transporting the luggage trolleys from one any floor to a floor in which an essentially horizontal onward transport is provided, a circulation transport system being provided for this onward transport from a vertical paternoster lift to another vertical paternoster lift.
- luggage trolleys empty luggage trolleys
- a circulation transport system being provided for this onward transport from a vertical paternoster lift to another vertical paternoster lift.
- the object of the present invention was to provide a transport system which is free from these disadvantages, but without causing significantly greater costs for the transport systems themselves.
- the cycle transport system for "horizontal" transport is designed according to the invention as an overhead conveyor, with receptacles (a type of cabin) being provided for accommodating the luggage carts , which are permanently or temporarily disconnectable from the conveyor.
- the transport system designed according to the invention can therefore be carried out without any problems when, in buildings with a high number of installations and people, the floor heights are such that the overhead conveyors can be installed near the ceiling and thus do not take up any other usable space.
- the channels in which the overhead conveyors are housed can also be installed near the floor, along walls, etc., since the space problem is of minor importance.
- FIG. 1 is a purely schematic representation of a transport system according to the invention, with two lift towers with paternoster lifts and a "horizontal" overhead circulation conveyor on a level between the towers,
- FIG. 2 shows a section through an overhead conveyor running in a channel (forward and return in the same channel),
- Fig. 3 shows a variant in which the circulation conveyor runs only in one direction (e.g. leads past a large number of towers), and
- Fig. 4 shows schematically the possibilities of sheet guidance and and 5 of climbing gradients by means of overhead conveyors.
- Fig. 1 of the drawing shows purely schematically the arrangement of two towers 1, 2 (a plurality of towers), each with a paternoster lift for the vertical transport of luggage carts 3 between different floors of buildings.
- the two towers can be located in different buildings of the overall complex.
- This conveyor 4 (see also FIGS. 2 and 3) is accommodated in a channel 5 which is closed on all sides. To accommodate the - 4 -
- Luggage trolleys 3 are provided with cabin-like receptacles 5 which e.g. can accommodate twelve individual, nested wagons 3 (wagon block).
- the transfer level can be at the level of the floor or on a separate level above this floor.
- the carriages are pushed from the receptacles (with the conveyor stopped) into the (also stopped and positioned) paternoster lift by fully automatic insertion and removal of the entire carriage block.
- the receptacles can also be controlled via switches, e.g. brought to a depot and retrieved from there for further transport.
- the channels 5 for receiving the overhead conveyor 4 have e.g. a height of 2 - 2.5 m and a width of 1.5 - 3.0 m, depending on whether the conveyor is single or double.
- the essence of the inventive idea is to use overhead overhead circulating conveyors for horizontal transport, which thanks to the completely flexible lines (curves, switches, inclines, inclines, etc.) makes maximum use of space and ultimately optimal use as a total conveyor and Transport system allows.
- Each baggage car preferably has a so-called transponder, so that the overall system can be controlled fully automatically by means of a superimposed IT management system.
