Transport device for printed matter and sheets - has laterally protruding holder elements forming clamping body holding article secure

摘要

The transport system for workpieces such as printed papers has a conveyor track formed by at least two contra-rotating endless chains or belts (12,14) with laterally protruding holder elements (24,26,28,30). The holder elements (24) of one conveyor belt (12) form with the holder elements (26) of the other conveyor belt (14) a holding body (2) which holds the printed article (10) secure. Where wheels are mounted at the pulley stations of the conveyor belt the holding elements are bodies of elastically deformable material extending in the axial direction of the wheels. USE/ADVANTAGE - Reliable conveyance of the objects since they are held secure.
