A metal chip conveyor having an internal chip removal structure includes an endless conveyor belt. An accommodating room of a machine body is divided into an inner space and an outer space. Two sides of the conveyor belt assemble with chains each having chain links. Each chain link has a first opening facing the inner space and a second opening facing the outer space. A guiding block is arranged in the inner space. The guiding block has a bottom surface, a blocking face, and a guiding gap. The bottom surface faces to the conveyor belt. The guiding gap lies at one side of the blocking face and communicates with the chain links. Therefore, metal chips are stopped by the blocking face and are moved to the guiding gap, then drop to the outer space via the chain links.

A belt conveyor having a platform that is movable from a retracted position recessed into a conveyor belt's top surface and an extended position above the top surface. The platform translates across the width of the belt in a slot to carry articles across the width of the belt. Guides in the conveyor below the belt have cam surfaces that raise and lower the carrier and translate it across the belt. The carrier may include a cam-actuated lever to flip articles on the belt or off a side of the belt.

The technology disclosed provides a joint for connecting carrier units together so as to dissipate and absorb axial forces experienced by the carrier units. The joint may be comprised of a joint housing and an elastomeric insert. The housing may be comprised of a body portion and a head portion and the head portion may include an annular flange in which the elastomeric insert is configured to be secured. The elastomeric joint is capable of absorbing and dissipating horizontal, rotational, and vertical forces experienced by the carrier units in non-linear travel along a track.

A sorting vehicle is provided that includes a wire harness structure and at least two vehicle bodies. The at least two vehicle bodies are pivotally connected to one another in sequence, the wire harness structure is connected to the two adjacent vehicle bodies, and the wire harness structure includes an elastic deformation portion located at a junction of the two adjacent vehicle bodies.
