Abstract: The invention relates to a device for gripping a CD from the top of a stack for automated processing, by putting actuated deflectable fingers in the central opening of the CD. Axial displacement is used to force the fingers radially outward. The axial displacement is advantageously provided by abutting a relatively axially displaceable part of the gripper against a fixed object and continue axial displacement of the gripper. Use is made of an arrangement similar to the actuating mechanism of a ball-point to extend and retract the writing tip or the mechanical arrangement used in electrical micro switches operated by a push button (e.g. the Short Stroke Key Switches of ITT Industries). This arrangement is combined with an electrical switch to detect the extended or retracted position of the fingers to provide a corresponding electrical signal to a control means.

Abstract: In a parts handling device and method for handling parts having a central aperture output from a press, the curved slide is provided extending in sloping fashion with its upper end being positioned at the press and its lower end at a location for unloading accumulated parts. A frame is provided for mounting first, second and third clamp assemblies along the curve slide. First, second and third mounting elements are provided beneath the curve surface of the slide in space relationship from one another in alignment with the clamp assemblies. When only two of the clamp assemblies are closed, the tube is rigidly held in its slope position. The control system is provided for selectably opening and closing the first, second and third clamp assemblies in a sequence which permits the parts which are accumulating in front of the first or second clamp assemblies to pass through to the third clamp assembly and eventually to an off-loading station when the third clamp assembly is open.

Abstract: A media rework tool includes a gripper assembly having a plurality of opposing arms for grasping predetermined discs within a disc pack. The gripper assembly raises the predetermined discs and any intermediate spacer rings upward for temporary storage on a media guide to allow the remainder of the disc pack to be reworked, such as for replacement of a defective disc or spindle motor. A method of reworking a disc pack includes centering the disc pack between opposing arms of a gripper assembly and beneath a cylindrical media guide. A plurality of the opposing arms close to grasp a predetermined number of discs, and the gripper assembly is raised to transfer the grasped discs, and any intermediate spacer rings, from the spindle motor to the media guide. Following reworking of the remainder of the disc pack, the spindle motor is returned to its centered position relative to the media guide and the gripper assembly. The gripper assembly is then lowered to restack the discs and spacer rings on the spindle motor and the opposing arms are opened to release the discs.

Abstract: Apparatus for removing plate-shaped objects (CDs) from a stack, the apparatus having a gripper mechanism, a stack magazine with a vertically arranged shaft that passes through the central openings (O) of the plate-shaped objects of the stack, and a lifting mechanism for the stack. To achieve a compact device structure with a low physical height and secure, simple removal and handling of plate-shaped objects, such as annular disks or information media in the form of compact disks or floppy disks in an automatic environment, the shaft has at its top end an upwardly tapering region, and a mechanism for displacing plate-shaped objects (CD), lifted into this region, in the horizontal direction against the shaft are arranged in such a way that a topmost object of the stack, displaced horizontally, can be gripped by means of the gripper mechanism. In addition, the gripper mechanism and the lifting mechanism are arranged vertically displaceably alongside the stack magazine.

Abstract: Converts any fork lift truck to a roll turning fork truck by sliding a specially designed rectangular frame onto the truck forks. A safety chain is incorporated to firmly attach the device to the fork lift carriage. The frame combines a power hoist, with load sensing brake, and cable that engages a roll or coil core via a roll center lift, which continuously grips the core firmly, in combination with an arm proceeding out from the roll center lift to the outside mid-width of the roll or coil which is attached to an adjustable fixed length chain. By lowering or raising the hoist cable past the fixed length chain, rolls can be turned to either a true horizontal or vertical position. The adjustable "L" frame suspends from the fixed length chain at the lowest point with a pivot pin to achieve the turning feature when the hoist cable is activated. Even though a fork truck may be stationary, the center lift is free to guide into the roll because the roll center lift is connected to a flexible cable and flexible chain.

Abstract: An assembly for transferring discs between disc manufacturing machinery or processes comprises a series of storage cassettes having discs stored therein. Each stored disc is retrieved from the cassette and placed into a shuttle which carries the disc while it is processed. The processed disc is retrieved from the shuttle subsequent to the disc manufacturing process and placed into a second storage cassette. The apparatus transfers the discs by gripping them between a stationary member which engages the edge of the disc and a selectably moveable member which engages the disc hole such that the disc is pinched between the two gripping members. The gripping and transferring functions are controlled by a computer.
