Piece goods conveyance system having individual containers for transporting piece goods, in particular luggage

摘要

A piece goods conveyance system has individual containers for transporting luggage on a conveyor belt and an unloading and loading station for loading the containers. The storage space is formed by an endless stable carrier belt spanning each container and driven guided perpendicular to the transport direction of the container. There is a stationary drive for driving the carrier belt in the region of the loading and/or unloading station. In order to create a functional drive for the container that undertakes the transport and sorting of luggage in a cost-effective and low-maintenance manner, a drive element is configured as flat belts circulating endlessly around deflection wheels parallel to the transport direction. At least one deflection wheel is positively connected to the carrier belt and can be frictionally engaged to a second flat belt of a stationary drive station driven endlessly circulating parallel to the first flat belt.
