Conveyor System
Conveyor system may comprise conveyor mechanism(s) provided with transport path(s) along which conveyed object(s) are conveyed to transport destination(s); electric current detector(s) and/or abnormality detector(s) that detect triggering event(s) which may be event(s) occurring at conveyor mechanism(s) due to conveyed object(s) during transport of conveyed object(s); and removal processor(s) that, when triggering event(s) detected by electric current detector(s) and/or abnormality detector(s) satisfy triggering condition(s), cause conveyed object(s) to be transported by conveyor mechanism(s) to removal area(s) which are not transport destination(s).
Multi-belt conveyor system with removable cartridges
A multi-belt conveyor is described. The multi-belt conveyor comprises a base assembly comprising a base frame that extends along a length of the multi-belt conveyor. Further, the multi-belt conveyor comprises a conveyor bed having a plurality of cartridges positioned adjacently to each other and mounted to the base frame. In this regard, each cartridge of the plurality of cartridges comprises a set of conveyor belts configured to move in a direction along the conveyor bed at a defined speed. Further, in accordance with some example embodiments, a cartridge of the plurality of cartridges is configured to be removed from the conveyor bed without removing an adjacent cartridge from the plurality of cartridges. Further, each cartridge of the multi-belt conveyor comprises an actuation assembly comprising: a drive pulley, a roller-slider bed comprising a plurality of rollers, and the set of conveyor belts mounted around the roller-slider bed and the drive pulley.

Transverse Conveyor of an Agricultural Harvesting Machine
Transverse conveyor (12) of an agricultural harvesting machine, in order to convey harvested crop in a conveying direction running transversely with respect to the direction of movement of the harvesting machine, with a transverse conveyor belt (14), and with lateral deflecting pulleys (15, 16) on which the transverse conveyor belt (14) is guided, wherein each of the lateral deflecting pulleys (15, 16) is assigned a respective drive unit (17, 18), with the aid of which the transverse conveyor belt (14) is drivable.
Lifting and lowering transportation device
A lifting and lowering transportation device is capable of transporting articles between different delivery positions using transportation units, each including a lifting and lowering platform, a linear motor, and a chain. The lifting and lowering platform can pass through the delivery positions by moving along the circumferential track that is common to the transportation units. The linear motor generates the driving force to move the lifting and lowering platform along the circumferential track. The chain is loop-shaped and can circulate along the circulation track corresponding to the circumference path, and the linear motor moves the lifting and lowering platform by circulating the chain by the driving force generated by the linear motor. The circulation of the chain in each transportation unit is controlled independently of the other transportation units.
