Actuable switch for influencing a flow of pieces of goods in a conveyor system, conveyor system comprising an actuable switch of this type, and method for operating an actuable switch of this type

摘要

An actuable switch for influencing a flow of pieces of goods in a conveyor system comprises a feed track for feeding the pieces of goods, a first discharge track for discharging the pieces of goods in a first discharge direction, a second discharge track for discharging the pieces of goods in a second discharge direction different from the first discharge direction, a switch blade which is actuable for displacement between a first operating position and a second operating position, wherein in the first operating position, the pieces of goods are delivered from the feed track to the first discharge track, and wherein in the second operating position, the pieces of goods are delivered from the feed track to the second discharge track, and an actuating member for applying an actuating force to the switch blade for a force-controlled displacement of the switch blade between the first operating position and the second operating position.

主权项

1. An actuable switch for influencing a flow of pieces of goods (2) in a conveyor system (1), the actuable switch (7) comprising
a. a feed track (13) for feeding the pieces of goods (2); b. a first discharge track (14) for discharging the pieces of goods (2) along a first discharge direction (9); c. a second discharge track (15) for discharging the pieces of goods (2) along a second discharge direction (10) different from the first discharge direction (9); d. a switch blade (8) which is actuable for displacement between a first operating position and a second operating position, wherein
i. in the first operating position, the pieces of goods (2) are conveyed from the feed track (13) to the first discharge track (14); andii. in the second operating position, the pieces of goods (2) are conveyed from the feed track (13) to the second discharge track (15); and e. an actuating member (16) for applying an actuating force (FS) to the switch blade (8) for a force-controlled displacement of the switch blade between the first operating position and the second operating position.
