SWINGING FEEDER MECHANISM Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: mechanical engineering. SUBSTANCE: invention can be used as load lifting mechanisms (elevators) of continuous action transportation piece articles by means of pendulum with fixed part of device onto part arbitrary swinging within preset angular limits along which articles are directed to point of destination. Swinging feeder mechanism contains swing part, pendulum 13 of axle of swinging part, elevation angle converter of swinging part, source 15 of oscillatory motion of constant amplitude and pendulum swinging amplitude converter coupled with oscillatory motion source and elevation angle converter of swinging part. Invention is aimed at tracing independent angular displacements of swinging part by means of pendulum 13 when pendulum is aligned with swinging part. Swinging feeder mechanism makes it possible to convert constant amplitude of oscillatory motion source 15 into variable amplitude of swinging of pendulum 13 depending on angle of lifting of swinging part. EFFECT: improved operation reliability. 1 dwg
