Conveyor system routing control - using relay and transmission circuitry for multi-destination multipoint receive and transmit junction

摘要

Control routing equipment circuitry decodes and routes according to the information on containers arriving at a receive/onward combined station of a conveyor belt system. The system uses two groups of three wires for destination control. An incoming container has individual destination information assigned to it which is used for operating selector switches at each of the stations on the conveyor system. Relays connected in circuit with the switches feed the destination information out on the wires of the three wire groups. The relays are connected to specific wires so that the container is routed to the particular destination designated by switch operation. Specific relays deal with certain control routing codes.
