SUSPENSION CONVEYOR SYSTEM

摘要

The invention pertains to a suspension conveyor system with a network of mul tiple rails and switches and a rolling apparatus that runs along this network. The rails have at least one sectional support girder (11) and two sectional run girders (8) of rectangul ar cross-section, each having an upper running surface (9). The sectional support girder (11) and t he two parallel sectional running girders (8) are linked by mutually spaced webs such that a guide slit (7) of defined width is formed between the two sectional running girders (8). The r olling apparatus (4) has a carriage with two bearing rollers (5) of common running axis suppo rted on the upper running surfaces (9) of the sectional running girders (8), below the guide s lit (7) the rolling apparatus (4) is equipped with means for carrying a load, in particular a lo ad-bearing hook (17), at the lower end of the carriage, the rolling apparatus (4) having just one running axis. Each sectional running girder (8) has a lower running surface. Below the bearing rollers (5) and engaging the sectional running girders (8) from below there are at least two stabilizing rollers (18) mounted at a distance from one another and behind the running axis of t he bearing roller in the direction of travel of the rolling apparatus; the stabilizing rollers (18) run with their axesparallel to the axis of the bearing rollers, the st abilizing rollers (18) being supported on the lower running surfaces. The rolling apparatus (4) has two lateral guide roll ers (6) mounted at a distance from each other in the running direction of the rolling apparatus, the axes of these guide rollers running perpendicular to the axis of the bearing rollers (5). The la teral guide rollers (6) are mounted between the bearing rollers and the stabilizing rollers (18) in such a way that they run following the guide slit (7) and cooperate with the switches.
