WALKING-BEAM CONVEYER WITH A VERTICAL SUPPLY OF LOADS Russian patent published in 1995 - IPC

FIELD: transportation systems. SUBSTANCE: walking-beam conveyer with a vertical supply of loads has an immovable framework, a movable framework with the drives of its hoisting and horizontal displacement and a mechanism of the vertical displacement of load made in the form of screw conveyers of the hoisting and lowering of loads. They consist of driving screws located in pairs with a step equal to that of the load displacement and kinematically connected with the drive of the horizontal displacement of the movable framework. The kinematic connection is made of a rack located in the immovable guides for its horizontal displacement, pinions kinematically connected with the rack and mounted on the shafts coaxially to the driving screws and connected with them by means of controlled couplings and a fork connected with the rack and rigidly connected with the movable framework. The conveyer is equipped with load holders located near each pair of the driving screws and with a load gripper placed on the movable framework over the screws. The conveyer is used for the transportation of outside loads. EFFECT: simpler design. 3 cl, 8 dwg
