Loading station for a pocket conveyor

A loading station for a pocket conveyor having two conveying lines. The loading station has a receiving section for receiving pockets for each conveying line; a receiving section for objects, with which the pockets are to be loaded; and a device for each conveying line, into each of which an empty pocket to be filled can be introduced. In addition, the loading station has a moving unit for moving the devices from a receiving section for objects to one of the receiving sections for receiving pockets, and back again. The loading station is also designed to alternately load the pockets of the first conveying line and the pockets of the second conveying line.

Delivery box system and method
11802012 · 2023-10-31 ·

According to embodiments disclosed herein, there is provided a delivery box system to deliver a commodity material. In various instances, a single auger configuration, a dual auger configuration, a vertical auger configuration and/or further configurations or combinations of configurations are contemplated as described. One or more auger facilitates the metered release of the commodity material and ameliorates jamming of the commodity material against aspects of the delivery box system.

Method and device for opening a transport bag
11434084 · 2022-09-06 · ·

A method and a device for opening a transport bag for loading and/or unloading, wherein the transport bag is conveyed along a conveying path by a conveyor system, in a suspended manner, to a device for opening the transport bag. The transport bag has a front and rear wall and a movable push element, which effects a relative movement of the front and rear wall with respect to one another between a closed bag state and an open bag state. An actively moved push device exerts a pushing force on a first end of the push element of the transport bag and the push element is converted from an idle conformation into a conformation subjected to a pushing force. The front and rear wall are thus moved relative to one another in the direction of an open bag state and the transport bag is opened for loading and/or unloading.

Method for bonding large modules, and bonding arrangement
11103946 · 2021-08-31 · ·

A method for bonding large modules with the following steps, a large module is fed to a bonder from behind in a loading plane by means of a feeder unit. The large module is passed from the feeder unit to a first transverse conveyor unit, and is brought by the same to a first buffer position provided in the bonder, wherein the first buffer position is provided in a loading plane of the bonder. The large module is brought from the first buffer position into a first receiving position in the loading plane via the first transverse conveyor unit and is passed there to a vertical conveyor unit.

METHOD FOR CONTROLLING INTELLIGENT PALLET
20210064052 · 2021-03-04 ·

This application relates to a technical field of cargo transportation and provides a method for controlling an intelligent pallet. The method includes: acquiring current shelf location information and performing movement according to the current shelf location information; acquiring cargo information and retrieving preset path information; acquiring weight information of current cargo and retrieving inclination angle threshold information; acquiring actual inclination angle information, and modifying the preset path information to generate updating path information by comparing the actual inclination angle information with the inclination angle threshold information; associating the updating path information with the cargo information and the cargo weight information and replacing the preset path information with the updating path information; and performing movement according to the updating path information. This application has an effect of improving the efficiency of cargo transportation.

Flight for Mesh Belt Conveyor Systems and Methods

A flight for use in a mesh conveyor belt assembly that can have a first planar portion and a second planar portion extending non-coplanar to the first planar portion. The first planar portion can have a pair of tabs extending therefrom. Each tab can have a through-hole configured to receive a cross-rod of the mesh conveyor belt assembly therethrough.
