Conveyor system for use in bottle processing machine for transportation of polyethylene terephthalate bottle, has chain with running part guided along pulling element and propelled by couplings released and engaged in region of guide

摘要

The system (FS) has guides running adjacent to each other. Each guide comprises a continuous pulling element e.g. link chain, driven by a conveyor drive of the system. A running part of a bottle carrier chain (K) is detachably guided at a predetermined distance along the pulling element and propelled through an air gap of the pulling element by magnetic couplings. The magnetic couplings are automatically released and engaged in a region of a transfer guide (T). Bottle carriers (7) are designed as identical plastic injection molded parts.
