AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The existing conveyor device configuration is complicated due to the need for a receiving member to prevent conveyed objects from spilling out of housing recesses, which complicates the design.

Method used

A conveyor device with a case structure comprising a lower, upper, and connecting case, and a pair of endless chains with buckets that scoop up objects from the bottom wall, reversing their posture to accommodate and discharge them, eliminating the need for a separate receiving member by ensuring the bucket openings face the appropriate walls during movement.

Benefits of technology

This configuration simplifies the device structure by preventing spilling and enhancing discharge efficiency, improving overall conveying efficiency by automatically returning fallen objects to the main conveyor.

Abstract

To provide a conveyor device capable of preventing a structure from becoming complicated.SOLUTION: The conveyor device includes: a case having a lower case and an upper case 22; a pair of chains 40; and a plurality of buckets 50 attached to the pair of chains 40, which scoop up an object W to be conveyed from the bottom wall of the lower case while moving along an outgoing path R1, and which convey the object W in a state of being accommodated in a storage recess 50a, and which drop the object W from the storage recess 50a when the position is reversed inside the upper case 22 following the movement from the outgoing path R1 to the returning path R2. The bucket 50 is configured such that the opening of the storage recess 50a faces the bottom wall of the lower case while moving along the outgoing path R1 inside the lower case, whereas the opening of the storage recess 50a faces a top wall 22b of the upper case 22 while moving along the outgoing path R1 inside the upper case 22.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 7
