Abstract: A conveyor is provided with a casing (2), an endless conveyor belt (9) located in the casing (2) to circulate. The conveyor belt (9) has a pair of roller chains (11) attached to the peripheral edges on each side of the belt. Each roller chain (11) has a plurality of rollers (13). The casing (2) is provided with a lower split body (14) and an upper split body (15) fixed on the lower split body (14). The lower split body (14) has a pair of side frame members (17 and 18) formed by press molding. The side frames (17 and 18) each have a lower supporting portion (20) and an upper supporting portion (22), for supporting the rollers (13). That is, some portions of the casing (2) serve as the roller supporting portions (20,22). This reduces the number of steps in the manufacture of conveyors, facilitates manufacture of the same, and reduces the manufacturers' cost.

Abstract: A modular conveyor system having an improved side flexing conveyor belt and improved active guide rail is provided. One or more roller assemblies replace the passive inside or outside guide rails in a curved section of the conveyor system for reducing the drag force on the conveyor belt as it negotiates the curve. Pairs of articulated members interconnect roller assemblies and allow the relative angular position of each to be selectively adjusted. The improved side flexing conveyor belt includes side links having a curved skirt which bridges the gap between the side links, thereby providing a continuous bearing surface for smooth operation. The skirts of adjacent links engage each other in edge-to-edge contact to prevent the tendency to sag, as well as assisting the conveyor belt in ramping up and down and the retention of the conveyor belt along a return run.

Abstract: A modular conveyor belt with pin-retained attachments. The conveyor belt is constructed of a series of rows of side-by-side belt modules hingedly interconnected end to end by hinge pins through interleaved hinge eyes of adjacent rows. Selected modules are base modules that include upstanding members extending from intermediate module structure. Belt attachments, such as flights, include depending connection members with shank portions that interleave with the upstanding members of the base module. One or more aligned apertures through the interleaved connection members and upstanding members form passageways across the base modules for connecting pins that hold the attachment to one or more base modules.

Abstract: An endless roller chain conveyor of the over/under type supporting carriers or pallets which independently travel along the horizontal runs of the conveyor upon demand, while the roller chain is allowed to continuously run at a constant speed. The chains are commercially available multi-strand roller chain. The carriers or pallets may be stopped and held along the horizontal runs of the conveyor (both top and bottom) using mechanically driven stop assemblies located at required load, unload, holdback, or workstation positions assigned to the particular application. The carriers or pallets are driven on the roller chains by way of guide sprockets, alignment bars, and support rollers. The guide sprockets are attached to an adjustable clutch assembly of the type, which allows for adjustment of the rolling resistance to accommodate the particular load requirements of the specific application for a particular machine. When the carriers or pallets are too short for the designated load to be placed upon them, then often the carrier or pallets will need to be linked or joined together to provide a surface of sufficient length to accommodate the load. The conveyor, when this feature is required, shall automatically couple carriers or pallets together for the loaded side of the conveyor and allow for the pallets to be uncoupled during transport around the terminal ends and the empty return side of the conveyor.

Abstract translation: 上/下型支撑托架或托盘的环形滚子链条输送机，其可以根据需要独立地沿着输送机的水平行进行进，同时使滚子链能够以恒定速度连续运行。 链条是市售的多股滚子链。 可以使用位于分配给特定应用的所需负载，卸载，保持或工作站位置的机械驱动的止动组件，使托架或托盘沿着输送机的水平行程（顶部和底部）保持并保持。 托架或托盘通过导向链轮，对准杆和支撑辊在滚子链上驱动。 导向链轮连接到这种类型的可调离合器组件，其允许调整滚动阻力以适应特定机器的特定应用的特定负载要求。 当载体或托盘对于指定的载荷放置在它们上时太短时，通常需要将载体或托盘连接或连接在一起以提供足够长度的表面以适应载荷。 当需要此功能时，输送机应自动将运输工具或托盘联接在一起，以便输送机的装载侧运输，并允许托盘在输送机的终端和空返回侧运输期间脱开。
