Abstract: The present invention discloses a material handling system including a loading conveyor, a material processing conveyor, a cutting instrument, and a water table operably associated with the material processing conveyor. The material processing conveyor includes an endless belt having first and second sprocket chains and a plurality of support members extending therebetween. The ends of the support members are connected to the corresponding sprocket chains via U-shaped connectors. The water table is maintained in the storage position while the processing conveyor is operating. Once movement of the processing conveyor has ceased, the water table is raised to an operating position so that the by-products of the cutting operation will be collected therein. The U-shaped connectors receive the side walls of the water table E. The U-shaped connectors obviate the need for elaborate end wall systems which are extremely expensive and time consuming to operate.

Abstract: A conveyor system for use in a continuous proofing and baking apparatus, having a conveyor chain for movement through an elongated track. Each link of the conveyor chain carries a product supporting grid. There is a rocker on each product supporting grid, for securing a bakery pan in engagement with the product supporting grid during movement of the product supporting grid along the track under the action of the conveyor chain. Each rocker has an upwardly extending portion for engaging the bakery pan between a pair of compartments of the bakery pan. In one embodiment of the invention, the rocker has a second upwardly extending portion, one upwardly extending portion being centrally disposed, and the other being offset. Each rocker can pivot in a horizontal plane relative to the product supporting grid. Thus, a baking pan can go around a curve without binding. If a baking pan is large enough to be supported on two successive product supporting grids, the rockers on those grids can be aligned at all times.

Abstract: An improved bearing construction for mounting carriers on an endless chain elevator. The elevator comprises a pair of endless chains mounted to travel in parallel offset vertical paths. The opposite corners of a plurality of carriers or platforms are connected to the respective chains by bearing assemblies, and as the chains move in their path of travel the carriers move in a generally rectangular path. Each bearing assembly includes a housing having an axial opening the receives a sleeve. A shaft is journalled within the sleeve and is connected to the respective chain. The sleeve is mounted for both linear and pivoting horizontal movement within the housing so that the sleeve can move horizontally but not vertically to accommodate any misalignment between the two chain drives.

Abstract: A conveyor belt is composed of plurality of substantially identical interlinked modules each of which is of integral plastic molded construction. Each module includes a body of plate-like planar configuration and first and second link ends outwardly extending from respective opposite edges of the body, the link ends being mateable with corresponding link ends of adjacent modules. The upper surface of the body and contiguous surfaces of the link ends define a flat conveying surface such that a conveyor belt composed of assembled modules provides an effectively continuous flat top conveyor for carriage of products. Each module includes an array of sprocket teeth across the width of the module and midway between the link ends, which are arranged in operative pairs coacting with corresponding portions of a sprocket wheel for positive belt drive.

Abstract: In a conveyor incorporating a flexible track (4) being guiding and supported on at least two beams (2, 3), which are angularly adjustable relative to each other, the two beams (2, 3) are arranged in a row after each other with an interspace between them and interconnected to each other by means of a joint. The track is guided by two sliding ledges (15, 16, 17, 18) which are jointed (19, 20) adjacent the interspace. A portion (21, 22) of each sliding ledge overlaps the interspace between the beams and is slidably arranged on a supporting edge of the beam on which the joint of the sliding ledge is situated.

Abstract: Several conveyor rollers of singulators are made to rotate by a fruit orientation belt causing fruit carried thereon to rotate in accordance with movement of the belt such that the rotational axes of the fruit, typically lemons, orient themselves along their stem axes, or substantially perpendicularly to the direction of travel of the singulators. Downstream, the rollers contact a rotating spin-accelerating belt to substantially increase speed of rotation of the rollers and oriented fruit thereon in order to permit optical scanning devices to scan a much larger percentage of the fruit surface areas. Fruit rotate in the same direction of rotation during orientation and spin-acceleration, the latter occurring for only a very short duration.

Abstract: A system for automatically clamping and unclamping objects into a carrousel having a plurality of incrementally movable carriers which support slidable trays, includes arms for unclamping a slide preventing detent and a foot for gripping the trays and sliding the trays away from the carrousel. An unclamping mechanism unclamps the objects so they can be removed form the trays. The tray is incremented to an unloaded position and a probe verifies the absence of an object. The tray then increments to a load position where another object is loaded into the tray and the clamps are automatically closed.

Abstract: A conveyor belt transporting apparatus for conveying carriers includes at least one conveyor belt frictionally engaged with the carrier, the conveyor belt formed of two belt layers, one lying on top of the other and extending between pulleys. A friction finger on the carrier is in frictional engagement with the belt by extending between its layers in frictional contact with both layers. Frictional contact force between the belt layers and the friction finger is variable by a moveable tension finger controllable by an automatic release element in response to blockage of movement of the carrier along the conveyor system. When the motion of a carrier is blocked by a stopped carrier or other impediment ahead of it, the release element is moved to release the friction force on the carrier finger engaging the belt. Verticle and horizontal guide and support rollers guide the carrier and support its weight.
