Abstract:
The disclosure relates to a buffer device and a method for buffering piece goods, in particular containers, bottles or packages, with a buffer area, a feed device for supplying piece goods to the buffer area, a discharge device for discharging piece goods from the buffer area. The device additionally comprises several circulating, independently drivable row pushers which can transport the piece goods in the direction of transport through the buffer area.
Abstract:
A storage section for the intermediate storage of articles, packaged or piece goods of a conveyor device. The storage section has at least one storage span on a first level and at least one empty span on a second level that is connected with the storage span. The storage span has two flexible loading and transport sections that run parallel to one another in opposite directions on the first level for the articles, packaged or piece goods to be stored, connected by a first diversion section. The endlessly circulating loading and transport sections are connected by a second diverting section in the area of the empty span. The positions of the first diversion section and the second diversion section can be changed in opposite directions such that a storage volume of the storage span can be varied.
Abstract:
A method for adapting motion profiles of a plurality of individually controllable transport elements for transporting containers in a container treatment system along a transport path, wherein the plurality of transport elements are movably arranged along the transport path, the method includes the following steps: determining a treatment state of at least one container carried along by a first transport element, and/or determining an operational state of at least one first container treatment unit which is arranged downstream with respect to a position of the first transport element along the transport path, wherein the first transport element is moved by an open- and/or closed-loop control unit of the container treatment system as part of a stream of transport elements, and wherein the motion profile of the first transport element is adapted by the open- and/or closed-loop control unit in response to the determined treatment state and/or the determined operational state.

Abstract:
Disclosed is a storage section (10, 10a, 10b, 10c) for the intermediate storage of articles (12), packaged or piece goods of a conveyor device for the continuous or intermittent transport of articles (12), packaged or piece goods. The storage section (10, 10a, 10b, 10c) has at least one storage span (14) on a first level (18) and at least one empty span (16) on a second level (20) that is connected with the storage span (14). The storage span (14) has two flexible loading and transport sections (22) that run parallel to one another in opposite directions on the first level (18) for the articles (12), packaged or piece goods to be stored, which loading and transport sections (22) are connected by a first diversion section (24) describing a circular arc of approximately 180°. The empty span (16) circulates on a second level (20), which is below the first level (18) of the storage span (14). The endlessly circulating loading and transport sections (22) are connected by a second diverting section (54), which describes a circular arc of approximately 180°, in the area of the empty span (16). The first diversion section (24) of the storage span (14) corresponds to an upper span (62), in the area of the first level (18), of one endless traction means (58) arranged between at least two second diverting means (52, 56) and coupled therewith. Its lower span (64) runs in the area of the second level (20), and is coupled there with the second diversion section (54) of the empty span (16). The positions of the first diversion section (24) and the second diversion section (54) can be changed in opposite directions by moving the driven endless traction means (58), such that a storage volume of the storage span (14) can be varied by changing the position of the first diversion section (24) and changing the position of the second diversion section (54) of the empty span (16).
