SPEED LIMITING DEVICE FOR ALL TYPES OF PALLETS CAPABLE OF MOVING IN A FLOW STORAGE GRAVITY CHUTE

摘要

The invention concerns a speed limiting device in the form of an assembly comprising a braking member (7) and a group (11) of locked rollers. Said group of locked rollers extend over a length L of the chute which is not less than the space E separating the skis (5) of a common pallet for which the skis are arranged perpendicular to the moving direction of said pallet along said chute. The speed limiting device is in the form of a compact assembly incorporated in a chute. Said assembly provides the speed limiting device with a universal character which enables it to be adapted to all types of pallets capable of moving by gravity in a flow storage gravity chute. The different groups (11) of rollers are mutually integral in rotation by means of toothed wheels (12) and intermediate pinions (13).
