Barrel conveying and processing installation - using support devices moving through all processing stages with the barrels and automatic conveyor tracks

摘要

Installation for conveying, buffering and processing of barrels especially beer barrels in filling depots or breweries using support devices and automatic conveyor tracks. A number of differing support devices varying in shape and size may be used for each barrel, whilst for barrels of the same size an individual unit support device is used. The support device is moved together with the barrel from the input side to the output side of the filling depot through the same or similar conveyor and buffer tracks. The support device moves together with the barrel through all the processing track areas.
