A MECANUM CONVEYOR

摘要

The present invention relates to a mecanum conveyor. According to the present invention, the mecanum conveyor has four mecanum conveyor units rectangularly connected to each other. Each mecanum conveyor unit comprises; a body; four mecanum wheels; weight sensors respectively installed in the mecanum wheels; and a microprocessor installed in a center of the body to control the four mecanum wheels in accordance to the signals received through the weight sensors. Each mecanum wheel is controlled by a central microprocessor to control each microprocessor. The mecanum conveyor actively loads, unloads, and transfers a distribution of various sizes and weights from a small standard pallet to a larger container, and progresses an operation at a user′s pleasure by controlling a position or direction of the distribution even in a stacked state to be efficiently loaded or unloaded; thereby having flexibility despite in a variation of environments during the automation process.
