Vorrichtung zur Lagerung eines Lastbehaelters an einem Fahrwerk von Haengebahnen

摘要

An apparatus for the pivotable mounting of a load container at a travelling carriage or similar mechanism of overhead conveyors or the like such that the load container always is suspended vertically or perpendicularly independent of the position of the travelling carriage. The inventive apparatus embodies two support holders arranged at the load container and two swivel or hinge joint devices arranged at the suspension mechanism of the travelling carriage. Each swivel or hinge joint mechanism embodies at least two components which are rotatable relative to one another, wherein one component is fixed with the suspension mechanism of the traveling carriage and the other free component is at least partially enclosed by the associated support holder. These components of each swivel joint mechanism and the associated support holder are constructed in such a way that the suspended load container is centered with respect to the suspension mechanism in two directions which are approximately perpendicular to one another.
