The present application discloses conveying apparatus including: support body for supporting object to be conveyed; linear moving member extended at predetermined height position and configured to move in predetermined conveying direction; first guide rail including first slope section inclined in conveying direction from predetermined first height position to second height position different from first height position, and configured to support the support body which moves in first slope section; and transmission mechanism configured to transmit driving force of linear moving member to support body when linear moving member moves in conveying direction. Transmission mechanism vertically extends and contracts in response to change in vertical distance between first guide rail and linear moving member extended at predetermined height position while support body moves on first slope section in conveying direction with being supported by first guide rail.

A rail transport system 10 has at least two load carrying bodies 12 which are arranged end to end. Mutually adjacent bodies 12 are coupled together by respective coupling systems 14. The rail transport system 10 further includes a plurality of axles 16 each provided at opposite ends with respective rail wheels 18 which support the bodies 12. A flexible liner 20 is supported by the bodies 12. The liner 20 is configured to span respective coupling systems 14. In this way the bodies 12 and the flexible liner 20 form a continuous load carrying structure 22. The continuous load carrying structure 22 is arranged so as to be able to pivot about an axis perpendicular to the axles 16 to facilitate unloading of cargo from the bodies 12.

The present invention discloses an apparatus for freight transportation. The apparatus comprising an electrified rail network, and a freight carrier mounted on the electrified rail network. The freight carrier is adjustable in length and comprises locking pins at opposing sides of the freight carrier. The freight carrier adjusts a location of the locking pins to match a length of the container. An attachment device receives and raises the container towards the carrier so that a connection holes at a top of the container connects to the locking pins under the freight carrier. A drive wheel assembly disposed at the freight carrier provides drive required to facilitate movement of the freight carrier along the rail network. A computing device in communication with the freight carrier is configured to send signal to the freight carrier to navigate the freight carrier to a destination point, thereby automatically delivering containers to the destination point.

Motorized carriage (1) that is able to move in translation along a longitudinal axis (X) along a horizontal rail, said carriage (1) comprising at least one wheel (4), in particular of the friction wheel type, that is driven in rotation by an electric motor (5) and is mounted so as to pivot about a transverse axis (Y) on a holder (3) which carries said motor (5), said carriage (1) comprising a chassis (2) incorporating guide means (23, 24) mounted so as to slide on the chassis (2) along a vertical axis (Z) orthogonal to the longitudinal axis (X) and transverse axis (Y) and cooperating with elastic stressing means (25, 26) that are designed to move the guide means (23, 24) in the direction of the rail, where the holder (3) is in sliding contact with said guide means (23, 24) along the longitudinal axis (X) and vertical axis (Z), this sliding contact being designed to convert a movement of the holder (3) along the longitudinal axis (X) into a concurrent movement of the holder (3) along the vertical axis (Z) in the direction of the rail. Said carriage (1) can be used in video surveillance systems.
