A device for supplying containers to a container handling device, for example to a container filling device for filling containers with a liquid filling product, includes a guide which is arranged at a predetermined guide height level for guiding a container on the container base thereof. The guide has a transfer portion for transferring the container to a receiving device of the container handling device, and the transfer portion is height-adjustable. A filling system including such a device is also described.

A conveying device includes a plurality of conveying zones having conveying elements, each conveying zone having at least one conveying drive for the conveying elements of the zone in question and being associated with a control unit that controls the conveying drive of the conveying zone, with the conveying device being designed having a support structure. Each conveying zone is formed by an individual independent conveying module that is fastened on the support structure as a complete individual unit and forms the entirety of the conveying device with additional adjacent conveying modules.

A method of transferring an item between a motor vehicle and a locker can include extending an extension mechanism between a motor vehicle and a locker. The extension mechanism includes a conveyor system having an extension mechanism item carrying surface. The locker includes a conveyor system having a locker item carrying surface. The method assesses whether the motor vehicle is receiving an item from the locker, or transferring an item to the locker. When the item is to be transferred from the locker, the method positions the extension mechanism relative to the locker such that the extension mechanism item carrying surface is vertically lower than the locker item carrying surface. When the item is to be transferred from the motor vehicle, the method positions the extension mechanism relative to the locker such that the extension mechanism item carrying surface is vertically higher than the locker item carrying surface.

An unloading conveyor system for unloading grain through the floor of a grain bin. A removeable cover is vertically supported by the plurality of ribs to cover the span of the midpan to allow maintenance. The midpan comprises a plurality of slots and ledges to receive and support the ribs to allow easy installation and maintenance. A central pit having an internal portion and an access support wall also provides easy installation and maintenance. The first bearing mount, second bearing mount, and roller are all accessible for service through the internal portion of the central pit.

A coupling block is provided to dynamically adjust a difference in height between a first support structure and a second support structure attached to a conveyor frame. The coupling block includes at least one rotating cam attached to the coupling block. The rotating cam is actuated to move at least a portion of the coupling block about an axis to compensate for a height difference between the first support structure and the second support structure. A cam adjuster is also accessible from an outer face of the of the conveyor frame to change a direction of rotation of the at least one rotating cam.

A conveyor bed is provided that can include a conveyor frame, a roller frame and an adjustment mechanism. The adjustment mechanism can include a first wheel movable on a first rail and a second wheel movable on a second rail. A sled can be coupled to a bottom face of the roller frame, where an inner face of the sled is in contact with the first wheel and the first rail and an outer face of the sled is in contact with the second wheel and the second rail. An actuable component coupled to the sled, wherein the actuable component is configured to move the sled back and forth linearly along the first rail using the first wheel in response to rotation of the actuable component, wherein a movement of the sled rotates the second wheel and pivots the second rail to alter an angle of the roller frame.

The disclosure relates to a movable material processing apparatus for handling material such as ore, gravel, rock or the like, comprising: a foldable conveyor for discharging material from the apparatus, wherein said foldable conveyor is movable between a transport position and an operating position, said foldable conveyor comprising a loading block arranged at the loading end, and a discharge block extending from said loading block towards a discharge end, wherein said discharge block is pivotally coupled to said loading block along a first axis being perpendicular to a transport path of the foldable conveyor and parallel with a carrying surface of the foldable conveyor, and wherein said loading block is pivotally coupled to a support structure of said movable material processing apparatus along a second axis being parallel to said transport path.

A high angle conveyor includes a first conveyor belt, a second conveyor belt, a first idler roller engaged with the first conveyor belt, the first idler roller being coupled to a first pivot frame, and a second idler roller engaged with the second conveyor belt, the second idler roller being coupled to a second pivot frame. The first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt define an inflection point between the first idler roller and the second idler roller. The first and second pivot frames are pivotable from an initial position toward an expanded position in response to a lump of material larger than a specified capacity of the high angle conveyor passing through the inflection point.
