PRODUCT-FLOW GENERATOR

摘要

The product flow regulator is used for decoupling an incoming flow of piece-goods from a downstream device for further processing. It comprises a stationary intermediate storage with a plurality of store levels, an infeed-side elevator with one or more transport levels for taking products arriving on conveyors to intermediate storage and a discharge-side elevator for removing the temporarily stored products and delivering them to forwarding conveyors. A buffer device is arranged upstream from these elevators on the infeed side and downstream from these elevators on the discharge side.

1. Method for decoupling an incoming flow of piece-goods from a downstream device for further processing with stationary intermediate storage (1) with a plurality of store levels (6) and with an infeed-side elevator (2) with one or more transport levels for transferring the products incoming on conveyors (8) to intermediate storage (1) and a discharge-side elevator (3) for removing the temporarily stored products and the delivery thereof to forwarding conveyors (9), characterized in that a buffer device (4; 11) is arranged upstream from the infeed-side elevator (2) which picks up incoming products and delivers them at several different heights to the inlet-side elevator (2).
