Abstract: A belt turn conveyor includes a conveyor support having first and second generally stationary vertical bearing surfaces and first and second generally stationary horizontal bearing surfaces. An endless belt is rotationally supported by the conveyor support and includes bearing assemblies for engaging the vertical bearing surfaces for retaining the endless belt on the conveyor support. An elongated strip of low friction flexible material is secured to the endless belt for engaging the horizontal surfaces of the conveyor support to restrain vertical movement of the endless belt.

Abstract: This invention provides improvements in modular links and conveyor belt systems for transferring moving articles from one conveyor belt to another disposed at ninety degrees. Thus a transferring belt has specially constructed links with two integrally formed portions across the width, one for pivotable connection in a moving belt configuration and the other specially constructed with features for more effective transfer of articles from the edge of a transfer belt to a moving belt disposed at ninety degrees which excludes inter-link pivoting structure. Thus with specially formed belt edge transfer modular links, a planar edge transfer platform is formed by the upper surfaces of a series of link end and belt edge planar conveyance surfaces located on the respective belt links. The lower link edge surfaces are tapered to reside in non-contact position over the ramp of the receptacle belt formed typically by a sprocket wheel at a position where the planar conveyance surfaces on the two belts are contiguous and co-planar. The link ends are constructed for encountering the dynamic movement conditions and loading stresses encountered when the belt edge is transversed by moving articles traveling from one belt to the other. The underside surfaces at the link end are contoured typically as a circular chord feathered out at the transfer end, and having a set of ridges parallel with the pivot rods. Interdigitatable fingers extending integrally from the upper planar link end surface mate with leading and trailing links for sharing planar and vertical stresses in the cantilevered integral link end-belt edge structure.

Abstract: A conveyor provided with an endless conveyor belt making a curve, which near its ends is passed over rollers journalled in a frame, and which can be driven during operation. A collar is provided near one edge of the belt located on the outer side of the curve, which collar is engaged by guide rollers supported by the frame. A guide roller engaging a collar is capable of pivoting movement about a pivot axis, which extends at least substantially parallel to the belt part supporting the collar and which, as seen in a longitudinal direction, is located on the side of the collar remote from the side that cooperates with the guide roller. Furthermore a mechanism is provided by which the guide roller can be locked against being pivoted about the pivot axis when the guide roller is in engagement with the collar.

Abstract: A conveyor belt comprises a plurality of longitudinally spaced transverse rods. A plurality of side links at both lateral edges of the conveyor belt are connected in pairs by the successive transverse rods. Each side link is movable relative to adjoining side links about two axes perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the conveyor belt. A wire netting is supported by the transverse rods and extends substantially over the whole width of the conveyor belt. The wire netting comprises a plurality of wires. A separate one of the wires forms a joint intermediate the lateral edges of the conveyor belt between each pair of adjoining transverse rods, each transverse rod in the pair connecting a separate pair of side links. Thereby, the joint takes up tractive forces at least along straight paths of the conveyor belt.

Abstract: A refrigerant metering charge board that accurately meters a refrigerant and an associated synthetic compressor oil into a product, preferably a refrigerator, is provided. Metering is accomplished by way of servo motors coupled to ball screws which are in turn connected to hydraulic cylinders. Calibration of the refrigerant, preferably R134a, is maintained using a temperature sensor, a programmable logic controller (PLC) and a density/temperature equation that has been empirically fit to saturation data. The preferred equation is a modified Benedict-Webb-Ruben (MBWR) equation of state. The refrigerant charge amounts are entered into the PLC using either a fixed bar code scanner or a hand-held bar code scanner that reads a bar code on the refrigerator. An operator interface, preferably a touch-screen display is also provided. A charging tool to connect to the product for inserting the refrigerant is located in a chargeable automatic connect/disconnect mechanism (ACDM) which allows for automatic operation on a assembly line.

Abstract: A food processing system comprises a food processor, a food product conveyor belt associated and constructed of segments that are longitudinally displaceable relative to one another and linked together to form an endless conveyor belt that extends through the food processor. The conveyor belt is arranged to travel from a lineal course into and through an arcuate course. A conveyor drive drivingly engages with the conveyor belt. A controller is associated with the conveyor drive and a detector for detecting a condition of the conveyor belt at a predetermined location is provided, the controller being responsive to the detected condition for controlling the conveyor drive to displace conveyor belt segments into a collapsed condition so that conveyor belt segments enter the arcuate course from the lineal course in a collapsed condition with inner edges of the conveyor belt segments remaining collapsed as the belt segments enter the arcuate course and with outer edges of the conveyor belt segments expanding apart as the belt segments enter the arcuate course.

Abstract: A two-point attachment of the pusher on the toothed belt of a conveyor means in conjunction with a rocking lever causes the pusher to perform a rocking motion in the direction opposite to the conveying direction upon deflection of the toothed belt around a return wheel. This results in reduced vibration of the conveyor means and reduced risk of damage to the item conveyed before the pusher dips below the conveying plane (F).
