Embodiment Construction

[0025] 1 and 2 show a part of a sorting device 1 according to the invention in a perspective view and a side view, respectively. The sorting device 1 comprises two oppositely arranged guide rail sections 2, 3 which are mirror images, defining a circular conveying path. The guide rail sections 2, 3 guide the series series of annular transfer units 4 interconnected for unidirectional rotational movement. The running wheels 5 forming part of each transfer unit 4 therefore run in opposite U-shaped grooves 6 , 7 of the respective guide rail sections 2 , 3 . The number of transfer units 4 corresponds to the number of rack units 8, as will be explained below.

[0026] Each rack unit 8 includes a support platform 9 . The support platform 9 of the left-hand rack unit 8 is not shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 for reasons of clarity. The typical length of the support platform 9 is 120 centimeters (cm).

[0027] Each support platform 9 is composed of a main support platform component 10 and a b...

Abstract

The present invention provides a device for sorting products, which device comprises carrier units arranged adjacent to each other and conveying means for supporting and conveying the carrier units. Each carrier unit comprises a support platform, support means for supporting said support platform, leg members supported by the conveying means and tiltably supporting the support means, and tilting means for tilting the support means relative to each other about a tilt axis extending parallel to the conveying path. The tilting means comprise at least one cam and drive means comprising an electric motor supported by the conveying means for rotating said at least one cam (37,38) relative to the leg members about an axis of rotation (35), as well as a camway which is rigidly connected to the support means and with which said at least one cam (37, 38) mates upon rotation of said at least one cam (37,38) about the axis of rotation (35). The tilt axis is located between the axis of rotation (35) and the support platform.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for sorting products, comprising rack units arranged adjacent to each other, a conveying mechanism for supporting and conveying the rack units in the conveying direction along a conveying path, each rack unit comprising a support platform for supporting The supporting mechanism of the support platform, the leg members supported and tiltably supported by the conveying mechanism, and the tilting mechanism for tilting the supporting mechanism relative to each other about a tilting axis extending parallel to the conveying path, the tilting mechanism comprising at least one cam and a drive mechanism comprising an electric motor supported by a transmission mechanism for rotating said at least one cam relative to the leg member about an axis of rotation spaced at a distance from said at least one cam, the axis of rotation being parallel to the axis of inclination extension, and at least one cam path formed by the support mechan...
