A unit (1) for supplying packets (2) of cigarettes has a first and a second belt conveyor (7, 8), which respectively define a first and a second path (P1, P2) having a common portion (T); and a routing device (10) extending about the first and second belt conveyor (7, 8) at the common portion (T), and cooperating with the belts (13, 21) of the first and second belt conveyor (7, 8).

The object of the present invention is to provide a dispatch system and a method therefor which significantly increase throughput. It would additionally be desirable to provide a dispatch system which is capable of handling both trays and tubs of various sizes as well as containers which are uncovered, sleeved, or covered with cardboard. A solution for this object is given by a postal dispatch system (20, 20') which dispatches randomly arranged containers (94) of sorted mail to particular dispatch carts (52) comprising: a sortation conveyor (36, 36') having a main line defined by a conveying surface, a plurality of spurs (44, 44') extending from said mail line and a diverter mechanism at each of said spurs (44, 44') which selectively diverts containers (94) from said conveying surface onto the associated one of said spurs (44, 44'); and at least one transport mechanism (50, 50') which transports containers (94) from each of said spurs (44, 44') to a cart (52) juxtaposed with that spur (44, 44'). Said object is even solved by a method of dispatching randomly ordered containers (94) of sorted mail to carts (52), comprising: sorting containers (94) to particular locations, each associated with a cart (52); and transporting containers (94) between each of said particular locations and the associated cart (52).
摘要:
A sorting system includes trolleys traveling along a path between respective stations for loading and unloading items in a direction transversely of the direction of travel of the trolleys. Each station includes an inductor for generating a variable magnetic induction field which is sensed by a detecting mechanism, such as an antenna, disposed on the trolley. In response to the magnetic induction field being detected, a loading/unloading device on the trolley (e.g., an endless belt) is actuated to load or unload items.
摘要:
A garment sorter for semi-automating the sorting of bulk used clothing, and a method of sorting such clothing. Bales (30) of clothing are uncompressed, and single articles (47) of clothing are fed to an operator at the identification conveyor (44). Equally, the system can be used for sorting loose clothing. The operator identifies the article (47) verbally, or by keypad entry. Voice recognition software, or other appropriate application software, recognizes the identification, and associates an address with the identified article. The article is then fed to a compacting device (46) that ensures that it is retained within a certain length along a transfer conveyor (20). The compacted article is then transported to transfer station (22) where a pneumatic pusher, under the control of a PLC, pushes the identified article off the conveyor into a bin, or secondary sort system.
摘要:
A suspension conveyor and sorting installation for the sequential sorting of individually conveyed objects, comprising two parallel conveyor paths (2, 3) arranged side by side and driven in opposite directions, a plurality of individual roller devices independent of each other which carry the objects (7) to be sorted and are adapted to be conveyed by getting coupled to pusher means, and at least one stop member for stopping the roller devices on an associated one of the conveyor paths (2, 3), for which purpose the roller devices can be uncoupled from the pusher means, a transfer mechanism (4) being provided between the conveyor paths (2, 3), at a distance from their ends, for controllably and selectively transferring the objects (7) conveyed along the conveyor paths (2, 3), from one conveyor path (2) to the other conveyor path (3).
摘要:
Es wird ein Verfahren zum Sortieren einer Mehrzahl einzeln geförderter Gegenstände in einer Hängefördereinrichtung beschrieben, bei dem die Gegenstände unsortiert auf einem ersten Förderkreis umlaufen und von dort einzeln und selbsttätig auf wenigstens einen zweiten Förderweg übergeben und zu Gruppen zusammengestellt werden. Um ein solches Verfahren einfacher und weniger aufwendig zu gestalten, wird vorgeschlagen, den zweiten Förderweg als zweiten Förderkreis auszubilden, auf dem die Gegenstände umlaufen, und zwischen dem ersten und dem zweiten Förderkreis eine selbsttätig schaltbare Weiche vorzusehen.
摘要:
A production system (10) for garments or other products includes a plurality of work stations (12) for performing a series of work operations in which parts of a garment or other product are progressively manufactured. A conveyorized transport system (14 to 24) extends between the various stations (12) and the flow of work between the various stations (12) is regulated by assigning class codes to each operation required for a garment and each operation available at the various work stations (12). The class codes for a given garment order are read sequentially from a data memory and as a requirement for each code or work operation arises in the course of producing the garment, the scheduler searches a second data memory to locate the work stations which offer the work operations corresponding to the class code sought. The scheduler then determines from among the available work stations (12) the specific work station to which the garment pieces are sent for performing the required work operation.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method of handling objects, in particular luggage, by means of an installation provided with and endless conveyor having carriers, whereby a supply conveyor for the supply of the objects to the endless conveyor connects to one side of said endless conveyor, and a discharge conveyor for the discharge of the objects likewise connects to one side of said endless conveyor. Prior to being supplied to the endless conveyor the objects to be handled in the installation are received in holders, which are secured to the carriers. The holders and the carriers are tilted about pivot pins extending at least substantially in the longitudinal direction of the endless conveyor so as to remove the objects from the holders at the location of a discharge conveyor. The empty holders of the carriers are delivered to a further discharge conveyor.
