Problems solved by technology

The device is unsatisfactory because it cannot be easily incorporated into existing conveyors without the use of specific and cumbersome fixing members
[0006] In both documents, the devices also have little protection against dust and are prone to disturbance over time

Embodiment Construction

[0031] The present invention relates to a detection device 2 for detecting articles moving on a conveyor 1 .

[0032] The detection device of the present invention is more specifically designed to be suitable for a conveyor 1 with rollers. However, it should be understood that it is equally applicable to other types of conveyors so long as these conveyors are configured to accommodate and operate the detection device of the present invention.

[0033] refer to figure 1 , the conveyor 1 with rollers comprises, for example, two lateral struts 10, 11, and a plurality of rollers 100 are positioned between the two lateral struts 10, 11 to drive the articles on the conveyor 1 in the conveying direction D . The rollers 100 of the conveyor 1, for example, are all identical and are positioned parallel to each other when the conveying direction D is straight. If the conveying direction D is curved, the rollers 100 are oriented to follow this conveying direction.

Abstract

The invention relates to a detection device (2) intended to be positioned in a conveyor (1) which comprises conveying rollers (100) arranged between two lateral uprights (10, 11) to convey goods in a conveying direction (D), the device comprising: an elongate support extending over its length along a longitudinal axis (X), said support supporting a number of detectors (40) distributed along its longitudinal axis (X) to detect the goods borne by the conveyor (1), said support being intended to be positioned between two conveying rollers (100), fixed between the two lateral uprights (10, 11) of the conveyor (1), transversally relative to the conveying direction (D).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a detection device for detecting the passage of articles on a conveyor. Background technique [0002] A known practice is to use detectors to detect the passage of items on a conveyor. The detector is positioned, for example, at a desired height relative to the conveying surface, and the output of the detector is activated each time an item enters the detection area of ​​the detector. [0003] In these schemes, the position of the detector must be chosen relative to the size of the item to be detected. Also, special supports must usually be provided to position the detectors. Finally, since the detectors are positioned in an obvious manner, a collision may cause the detectors to be displaced, disturbed, or even degraded, resulting in defective detection of the item. [0004] Document US 4,240,538 describes a detection device used in a conveying system positioned below the conveying rollers. This device is unsatisfac...
