Bucket (1) for transporting and unloading products, comprising an opening at the top for receiving the products and a collapsible hinged lid (2) at the bottom of the bucket (1), the lid (2) being connected to actuation means (3 to 6) capable of moving the lid (2) between a closed and an open position for the unloading of the products by means of gravity. The lid (2) comprises at least a side support wall (2a) in motion with said lid (2) and positioned adjacent to an inner (1a) wall of the bucket (1), said support wall (2a) being intended to drive the products outward by means of friction during the opening motion of the lid (2), the lid (2) being actuated in a controlled manner by said actuation means (3 to 6) along its opening path and subsequent closing path.

The invention relates to a drive belt connecting device for the tension-resistant connection of fiat drive belt end sections (93, 94), which drive belt connecting device comprises a multi-part connecting body (41), which has connecting parts (1, 2, 3) and a connecting chamber (42), which accommodates the drive belt end sections (93, 94), which have at least one first belt flat side having a belt surface profile (911) in an overlapping arrangement for tension-resistant connection. A first outer connecting part (1) and a second outer connecting part (2) bound the connecting chamber (42), in which an inner connecting part (3) having inner connecting surfaces (301, 302) is arranged. The inner connecting surfaces and outer connecting surfaces (101, 201) of the outer connecting parts (1, 2) can be placed onto the drive belt end sections (93, 94). A fastening means (5) fastens the outer connecting parts (1, 2) to each other at a limited fixed distance. An inner connecting means (30) connects the inner connecting part (3) to at least one of the two outer connecting parts (1, 2) for connection that is secure in the belt tension direction. A flat drive belt (90) is connected to a circulating continuous flat drive belt (90) by means of at least one said drive belt connecting device (4). A conveying device (7) comprises two such drive belts (901, 902), which can be guided and driven along a conveying path (78) and a return path (79) to circulate together and in parallel, wherein one conveyor belt (75) is formed by a series of transport elements (73) arranged in parallel and transport blocks (74) fastened onto the two drive belts (901, 902) to support said transport elements. Connecting bodies (41) of the drive belt connecting devices (4) are configured as transport blocks (74).

A conveyor/elevator for raising ovate objects includes a lower support with a contact surface having a minimum radius equal or greater than the radius of the ovate object to be moved. A side support with opposed concave surfaces which have a minimum radius equal or greater than the ovate object, wherein each surface has at least one support point for the ovate object. The concave surfaces have a last possible support point, in the direction towards the outside of the conveyor/elevator, at the intersection of a line parallel with the line of centre of gravity of the ovate object, with a distance relative to the line of a centre of gravity of the ovate object between the minimum of 2 mm and the maximum equal to the radius of the ovate object and a line perpendicular to the line of centre of gravity of the ovate object.
