The system may also include a portable base having a base frame and at least one wheel secured to the base frame. The conveyor may also be pivotably coupled to the portable base.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for systems and methods for an adjustable conveyer system. The adjustable system may include one or more conveyor systems, a support structure for a first end of the conveyor system, a support structure for the second end of the conveyor system, and a lift system. The lift system may be actuated to cause the first end of the conveyor system to raise to a height that is higher or lower than the second end of the conveyor system. The adjustable system may be used to distribute packages to containers of various heights and sizes. In one example, the lift system may include a crank shaft. In another example, the lift system may involve a pulley system.

A conveyor system for a working machines such as a cold planer is disclosed. The working machine that can optionally have a frame, a rotor moveable relative to the frame to remove material from a surface of a working area and the conveyor system. The conveyor system can optionally include a first belt and a second belt. The conveyor system can be positioned to receive loose material from the rotor and transport the loose material relative to the frame away from the rotor. Optionally, the second belt can be positioned adjacent to and extending along the first belt and moveable relative to the frame.

A towable conveyor for transporting and elevating articles and a method and system for towing a conveyor and conveying articles up inclines is provided. The conveyor system has an elevating carriage and a plurality of support elements for conveying articles up the conveyor. Specifically, the towable conveyor system comprises a conveyor having a support frame, a plurality of support elements, a drive end with a motor, and an idle end; an elevating carriage having a first end interconnected to the support frame of the conveyor, a second with two or more wheels, and a support member extending upwardly from the elevating carriage; a cable system for raising the conveyor into a position of use and for lowering the conveyor into a towing position; one or more locking mechanisms; and a hitch for connecting the conveyor to a rear end of a towing vehicle.

A self-propelled milling machine has a machine frame 4 supported by running gears 6A, 6B, a working device 5 provided on the machine frame 4 for working the ground, and a conveyor device 12 for removing material. The conveyor device 12 has a boom 13 which is mounted on the machine frame 4 so as to pivot about an axis of rotation X which is perpendicular to the machine frame. The pivoting apparatus 16 for the boom 13 is characterised by at least one mechanism 16A, 16B having a plurality of mechanism links and the joints A, B, C, D connecting them and at least one linear drive 17A, 17B for driving at least one of the mechanism links. The mechanism may be designed as a planar four-link pivot joint mechanism 16A, 16B, the machine frame 4 forming a mechanism link of the pivot joint mechanism.

A conveyor module 1, adapted to be releasably attached to at least one other conveyor module 1 to form a conveyor assembly 15. Each conveyor module 1 includes a substantially longitudinal main frame 4, said main frame 4 being adjustable between a first position (FIG. 3), in which said module 1 is compacted for transportation, and, a second position (FIG. 4), in which said module 1 is expanded for conveyor operation. A plurality of support legs 17 is provided to support said conveyor module 1 upon a substrate surface, each support leg being adjustable to facilitate adjustable alignment of said module 1. Conveyor componentry 12 is housed substantially within said main frame 1. The conveyor module 1 is preferably formed from or built to standardised shipping container (ISO) specifications.

A container transport device for transporting containers in a container handling system includes a chassis for supporting the container transport device on a track. The chassis is equipped with a frame on which at least one tray for transporting the containers is provided in a vertically adjustable manner. The at least one tray has a transport surface with multiple transport elements arranged in a substantially parallel manner for temporarily storing and conveying containers in rows, and each transport element is drivable in a controlled and/or closed-loop manner independently of one another in two different conveying directions.

A transport device for conveying products (12), in particular packaged and/or non-packaged food, comprises at least one transport unit (14) which comprises at least one endless transport element (16), in particular an endless conveyor belt, which has a product support surface (18) for receiving products (12) to be conveyed, the transport device further comprising at least one guide unit (20) for guiding the transport element (16) and which has at least one, in particular movably supported, guide element (22), in particular a guide roller, and comprising at least one bearing unit (24) for pivotable or tiltable support of the guide unit (20) together with the transport unit (14) relative to a frame unit (26) of a production installation, in particular around a movement axis (30) of the guide unit (20), running at least essentially parallel to the product support surface (18), wherein the guide unit (20) has at least one further guide element (32) for guiding, in particular deflecting, an endless further transport element (34), in particular an endless further conveyor belt, wherein for the purpose of guiding the transport element (16) the further guide element (32) is supported by means of the bearing unit (24) so that it can be pivoted or tilted together with the guide element (22) and with the transport unit (14) relative to the frame unit (26).
