Abstract: A system for treating, in particular, cataphoretically immersion painting objects, particularly vehicle bodies comprises a number of treatment reservoirs (101, 102, 103) inside of which the objects (4) can each be subjected to the action of a treatment liquid. The objects (4) are guided one by one through the treatment reservoirs (101, 102, 103) with the aid of at least one trolley (5). Said trolley comprises a traveling mechanism (7, 8, 9 to 12) that can travel along the movement path of the objects (4). This trolley also comprises at least one pivotal arm (50, 51) that is coupled to the traveling mechanism (2, 8, 9 to 12), and has a holding device (61), which is coupled to said pivotal arm and provided for holding at least one object (4). Independent drives (32, 35, 56, 57, 80, 81) ensure that the translatory motion of the trolley (5), the pivoting of the at least one pivotal arm (50, 51), and the pivoting of the holding device (61) can be executed independent of one another. This trolley (5) enables the objects (4), which are to be treated, to be held for a long duration at an angle to the horizontal while being located in the outlet area of the treatment reservoirs (101, 102, 103) above the zone in which they are subjected to the action of the treatment liquid. This permits the treatment liquid to flow and drip off back into the treatment reservoirs (101, 102, 103).

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a carrier and conveyor system that permits the carrier to be driven by at least two different types of conveyors or drive assemblies, including a power and free conveyor. The system includes a plurality of carriers, first and second areas, a power and free conveyor assembly, and a friction drive assembly. The power and free conveyor drivably engages the first and second carriers when the carriers are in the first area and is out of driving engagement with the carriers in the second area. The friction drive assembly is engageable with each carrier when the carriers are in the second area and out of driving engagement with each carrier when the carriers are in the first area.

Abstract: A swinging link mechanism, provided on a conveyance truck, for raising and lowering a vehicle body held on a supporting member includes a first arm having a fixed end section which is attached to the conveyance truck in a vertically rotatable manner by means of a horizontally oriented support axle, a second arm having a fixed end section supported rotatably on the free end section of the first arm and having a supporting member provided on the free end section thereof, and a third arm coupled rotatably between the conveyance truck and a prescribed position on the second arm. Third arm is caused to rotate the second arm in the opposite direction to the first arm in response to rotation of the first arm, thereby to make the lower movement path of the supporting member to extend substantially vertically. Hence, the vehicle body can be raised or lowered in a substantially vertical movement path, and the position and attitude of the vehicle body can be controlled readily, by adopting a link mechanism of a simple configuration.

Abstract: An adjustable frame for carrying vehicles between elongate upright sides includes, on each side, a forward end and a rearward end, each end including an upper and lower rail section joined by elongate brace members, where the respective ends are separated from one another and a length-adjusting insert is carried between such ends to selectively permit adjustment of the position of the forward end relative to the rearward end while maintaining the ends in end-to-end alignment. On each side of the frame, preferably at least one of the upper rail sections has an end portion defining an open-ended hollow tube extending lengthwise of that side within which an elongate arm of the length-adjusting insert is slidably moveable so that structures on the outside surfaces of the rail sections will not interfere with length adjustment. Preferably, on each side, the upper and lower rail sections of the respective ends together define longitudinally aligned upper and lower pairs of open-ended tubes in which are slidably received an upper and lower pair of arms of the length-adjusting insert, thereby permitting the insert to remain permanently in position on each side regardless of the length selected. Preferably, also, the forward and rearward ends of the frame are lockable to the arms of the insert while keeping the insert centered longitudinally with respect to each side.

Abstract: A system for loading and transporting wheeled vehicles on a transporting vehicle, such as a ship or rail car, comprises supporting a plurality of wheeled vehicles on each of a plurality of frames in vertically-spaced relation to each other and then inserting the respective frames and their supported vehicles matingly into respective enclosures. The enclosures, with their frames and vehicles inside, are loaded onto the transporting vehicle by compactly stacking the enclosures one atop the other in weather-exposed positions, the enclosures nevertheless serving to protect the vehicles from external hazards.

Abstract: A further modification of the invention of U.S. Ser. No. 06/649,522 below discloses a closed multi purpose product container suitable for heavy duty transportation of commodity products by railroad flat cars, freight ships and land motor truck powered trailers. The modification of a full top opening has two intersecting hinged flat rigid top lids and can have side flaps extending the container length. Each one-half flat hinged lid can open and hinge from one of the opposed two long flat rigid side walls. A pair of an opposed front end wall and a hinged rear end wall door can have end wall load reinforcement designed to prevent the container end walls from bowing and deforming in shape during the acceleration and deceleration of the loaded cargo container, during the starting and stopping of a loaded train having the product containers disposed on the flat cars of the train. The hinged top flat dual rigid lids and the hinged rear flat dual rigid doors of the container in combination enable the use of the same container for multi-purpose types of product loads. The CLC container can be loaded with granular or lump product commodities. When the cleaned CLC is used as a rear door loading container, multiple automobiles can be disposed inside, and secured to prevent the automobiles rolling. The automobiles can have pressure sensitive adhesively bonded elastomeric strips protectively disposed across the cars front and rear bumpers, as the automobiles are disposed on a horizontal ramp secured in the CLC container. The ramps can be disposed at least two high in the CLC container. If the automobiles are each 13 feet long, three automobiles can be secured on each ramp in a 40 foot long container for a total of at least six automobiles per CLC container.
