Description

[Detailed description of the invention] The present invention increases the separation distance between the conveyors by interposing a transfer conveyor whose tip part can bend downward and can rotate between the separated conveyors, thereby improving the conveyor line. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the conveying apparatus according to the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings, which relates to a conveying apparatus that has a wide cross passage and allows objects to be transferred smoothly and safely.

In FIGS. 1 and 2, a conveying device 1 of the present invention includes conveyors 2 and 3 using wide belt conveyors separated by a passageway, and a pair of conveyors interposed on the conveyors 2 and 3. The next conveyor 4 is equipped with a next conveyor 4, 4, and the next conveyor 4 is
They are installed close to one conveyor 2 on both sides thereof.

The transfer conveyor 4 has a rotating shaft 8, which is driven by electric motors ea and Ma in a frame 5 fixed on the floor F through gears 6 and γ, vertically pivoted on the frame 5. At the upper end of 8, a base a of a relatively long U-shaped frame body 9 with an open upper part is firmly supported, and at the other end of the U-shaped frame body 9, an arm 10 which can be rotated up and down is pivotally attached. It is configured as a belt conveyor in which the pivot portion, the tip of the arm 10, the base a of the U-shaped body 9, and the pulleys 11, 12, 13 are pivotally supported, and a belt 14 is wound around the pulleys 11, 12, 13. and the belt 14 is
A pulley 11 at the base a of the U-shaped frame 9 rotates by being connected to an electric motor Mb fixed to the lower surface of the U-shaped frame 9 via a chain device 15.

Further, the U-shaped frame 9 pivotally supports the rear end of a cylinder 18 whose rod 11 end is supported by the arm 10 by means of a support piece 16 provided on the side at the lower center thereof. As a result, the leading end of the transfer conveyor 4 can bend from a horizontal state to hanging down at a substantially right angle.

In this case, the belt 14 is provided with a slack removing roller (not shown).
It always makes me nervous.

The electric motors a and IVla installed in the frame 5 are electric motors that rotate forward and reverse within a fixed angle range that can rotate the pivot shaft 8 in the forward and reverse directions by 900 degrees and stop. As the electric motors a and Ma operate, the conveying directions thereof rotate in opposite directions in a horizontal plane from a direction that coincides with the conveyors 2 and 3 to a direction that is perpendicular to the conveyors 2 and 3 facing each other.

Note that the upper surfaces of the conveyors 2, 3 and the transfer conveyor 4 are leveled to the same level.

The conveying device 1 of the present invention can change the arm by reducing the cylinder 18 from the state shown in FIG. 10 is rotated to bend the tip end portion downward at a substantially right angle, and the electric motors a and Ma are driven so that the transfer conveyors 4 can be turned in opposite directions until they are in the state shown in FIG. 2a, facing each other. .

Therefore, when the transfer conveyor 4 extends its tip end horizontally, its length is large, and as a result, it bridges the conveyors 2 and 3 separated by a long distance, making it possible to transfer to the loaded items. In addition, by bending and turning the tip end, the left and right transfer conveyors 4°4 can be stored facing each other, so that the amount of interference between the conveyors 2 and 3 is only the width dimension W of the transfer conveyor 4, Therefore, conveyor 2,
A wide passageway will be secured between the three spaces.

As shown in the image above, the conveyor of the present invention can reduce the overall length of the transfer conveyor and can rotate, thereby ensuring a wide cross passage in the conveyor line and bridging long distances, making it possible to connect between conveyors. The connection can be made reliably, and the conveyed objects can be transferred smoothly and safely.

In addition, even if the length of a transfer conveyor is large, the overall length can be reduced by bending the tip, and it can be stored between conveyors with a relatively short width without exceeding the width. Become.

Particularly, when increasing the conveyance width by arranging transfer conveyors on both sides of the conveyor as in the above embodiment, the transfer conveyors can be housed facing each other as described above, and the effect is even more pronounced.
