EXTERNAL MATERIAL INTRUSION-PROOF SEALING SYSTEM FOR ROLLERS USED IN CONVEYOR BELTS FOR BULK MATERIALS
20230296174 · 2023-09-21 ·

A sealing system which is designed to leverage the centrifugal acceleration of solids and liquids due to the natural rotation of the roller, expelling them outside, preventing most of the contamination from trying to penetrate the roller seals. Excess of contaminants that is not centrifugally expelled is blocked by the following internal sealing system.

TRANSFER PULLING MEANS AND SYSTEM AND CONVEYING DEVICE HAVING SUCH A TRANSFER PULLING MEANS
20230278805 · 2023-09-07 ·

Non-driven transfer pulling means of a conveying device for conveying hanging objects, wherein at least one z-shaped adapter bracket having at least one entrainer prong is fastened to the transfer pulling means, wherein the entrainer prong is arranged in a substantially parallel offset manner with respect to a main body of the adapter bracket and extends substantially in parallel with a main transverse extension direction of the transfer pulling means and, owing to its positioning and shape, is suitable to engage with a head part of a holding adapter supported the conveying device and used for holding objects to be conveyed, in order to permit onwards conveyance of the holding adapter.

MODULAR TRANSFER UNITS, SYSTEMS, AND METHODS

A modular transfer system with a primary flow system and a diverter system. The primary flow system includes a primary flow belt for conveying an article along a primary flow path from an infeed side of the modular transfer system to a pass-through side of the modular transfer system. The diverter system includes one or more diverter belts for diverting an article from the primary flow path towards a divert side of the modular transfer system. The primary flow belt includes multiple movable components contacting the diverter belt. The movable components can have one or more rotational degrees of freedom.

PACKAGE SORTING TRANSFER MODULES AND SYSTEMS AND METHODS THEREFOR

A transfer module assembly includes a frame, a conveyor belt with internal rotating elements, where the conveyer belt is supported by the frame, conveyor drive rollers supported by the frame and configured to drive the conveyor belt, a flat transfer belt mounted beneath the conveyor belt and configured to contact undersides of the internal rotating elements of the conveyor belt in operation, and flat transfer belt drive rollers supported by the frame and configured to drive the flat transfer belt. The conveyor drive rollers are friction-based and operate without use of a sprocket, and comprise depressions for receiving the internal rotating elements of the conveyor belt.

Hygienic conveyor roller

A hygienic, cleanable conveyor roller for use in a conveyor includes a segmented hub, a plurality of spokes and a rim for contacting a conveyor belt. The segmented hub comprises a plurality of arcuate segments in different axial planes connected to each other. The conveyor roller is mounted upon and rotatable about a mounting shaft that may axially constrain the roller. During a single revolution of the conveyor roller about the mounting shaft, all surfaces of both the conveyor roller and the mounting shaft are fully exposed, allowing the surfaces to be cleaned in place, without requiring removal of the conveyor roller from the mounting shaft.
