FIELD: transportation.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to overhead conveying device 01 for integration in an assembly plant in order to transport vehicle components 02 by means of a conveying device arranged on overhead conveying device 01. Conveying device has at least one supporting framework 04 and conveying device 03 is configured to be mounted on supporting framework 04. Supporting framework 04 and conveying device 03 form a stiff conveying layer, in or at which vehicle components 02 can be transported from an input point to an output point. Conveying device 01 is mounted on ceiling structure 10 of the assembly plant by means of bearing means 13 in a suspended state. By means of an overhead installation of overhead conveying device 01 on ceiling structure 10 of the assembly plant, which is suitable for component assembly and/or for component transport purposes, having a free space suitable for passage and / or passage, is formed between the underside of supporting framework 04 and the upper side of the floor of assembly plant 18. Supporting framework 04 includes frame elements 05 with a closed frame cross-section. Component plane formed by frame element 05 extends substantially vertically upwards, and the surface normal of the component plane spanned in each instance by frame element 05 points in the conveying direction.
EFFECT: increased stiffness is provided.
