摘要： An accumulation conveyor includes a product sensor that is positioned along the conveyor at a particular zone for sensing the presence of product at that zone and for causing actuation of the zone upstream of that product sensor with respect to product movement along the accumulation conveyor. The product sensor includes an arm that is selectively positioned in the path of product being conveyed, a switch having an actuation member juxtaposed with the arm, and a force-producing member responsive to actuation of the downstream zone actuator in order to apply a force to the switch and, in turn, retract the sensor. This may be accomplished by physically locating the product sensor within the downstream zone and providing an actuator for that downstream zone that is mechanically coupled to the product sensor physically located within that zone. When the actuator is actuated, it retracts the product sensor from the path of movement of product along the accumulation conveyor concurrently with actuation of the downstream zone. The switch may be selectively mounted either to a stationary member or to the downstream actuator. If the switch is mounted to the stationary member, the associated sensing member is not responsive to actuation of the downstream actuator and a non-retractable sensor function is achieved. If the switch is mounted to the actuator, actuation thereof will retract the sensing member from the path of movement of the product along the accumulation conveyor. Thus, each product sensor may be made into either a retractable sensor or a non-retractable sensor. Each actuator includes a moveable member that reciprocates with respect to a stationary support member to which is mounted a signal manifold that interconnects with signal manifolds of adjacent control devices and with a force-producing device for reciprocating the moveable member of that actuator. The accumulation conveyor further includes a drive assembly that is entirely supported by the side rails of the accumulation conveyor in order to thereby be positionable at substantially any longitudinal location along the product conveying surface.

摘要： An accumulation conveyor includes an endless drive belt that is juxtaposed with a multiplicity of rollers and at least one control device for selectively moving the drive belt into driving engagement with the rollers. The drive belt has a high-friction face engaging the rollers and a low-friction backing engaging the control device. The control device includes a support member having a cavity formed therein and a force-producing device in the cavity. A contact member is positioned between the force-producing device and rollers and reciprocates with respect to the rollers. A signal manifold is mounted to the support member and interconnects with the force-producing device and with signal manifolds of adjacent control devices.

摘要： An article separation conveyor system includes a plurality of conveyors which are independently and/or collectively operable to destack, separate and/or align articles being conveyed along the article separation conveyor. The conveyor system includes a destacking conveyor, a side by side eliminating conveyor and/or an aligning conveyor. The destacking conveyor includes a plurality of conveying portions, which are inclined to convey articles up and then drop or guide them onto the next adjacent conveyor. The side-by-side eliminating conveyor includes a pair of diverting members and is operable to redirect articles from one side of the conveyor to the other to destack and separate articles as they are continuously conveyed along the conveyor. The aligning conveyor is operable to align articles along one side of the discharge conveyor so the articles are arranged for identification at a downstream scanning device and induction onto a sortation system.

摘要： An automatic tray handling system for use with an article or mail sortation system, such as a flats mail sortation system, is operable to automatically remove filled or partially filled trays from individual sorter units and to replenish the sorter units with empty trays. The empty trays and/or filled trays are moved along at least one conveying surface adjacent to the sorter units. The automatic tray handling system includes a plurality of tray moving devices, which are operable to move the empty trays from the conveying surface to the sorter units, whereby the trays are at least partially filled by the sorter units. The tray moving devices are then further operable to move the at least partially filled trays from the sorter units to a conveying surface, whereby the filled trays may be conveyed to downstream operations, such as an automatic labeling station. Preferably, the empty trays are movable in a continuous loop about the mail sortation system. The automatic tray handling system may include an upper and lower conveying surface and a vertical tray moving device, which is operable to lower empty trays from the upper conveying surface to the lower, empty tray-conveying surface, whereby the empty trays are returned to an upstream end of the conveying surface along the sorter units. The empty trays may be conveyed along the conveying surfaces and may be moved into a proper position for filling at an appropriate one of the multiple sorter units positioned therealong.

摘要： A method and apparatus for sorting or pre-sorting objects contains a system of conveyors and crossover diverters incorporating the topology of an omega network. The sorter interconnects a series of perfect shuffle networks, interleaved with banks of crossover switches. Collision avoidance is implemented by controlling flow on accumulator conveyors entering the crossover switches. Extra banks of crossover switches may be added to provide redundancy and load-balancing capabilities to the system.

摘要： A tray destacker is operable to separate individual trays from a stack of trays and to discharge the individual trays. The tray destacker includes a tray separating device which engages an edge or handle of the individual tray and moves the tray away from the stack of trays, while a tray retaining device engages a next tray adjacent to the individual tray and retains the remaining trays of the stack. The tray separating device may be biased toward an engaging position so as to engage the individual tray when the trays and the tray separating device are in an appropriate position relative to one another. The tray retaining device may also be biased to engage the next tray and may release the next tray in response to the tray separating device returning to the stack of trays to remove the next tray from the stack.

摘要： A system and method for manipulating articles includes providing a bed having at least one conveying surface. The conveying surface is adapted to move articles in a direction of conveyance from an upstream end to a downstream end of the bed. At least one sensor is provided to determine the position of any articles on the bed. Selected articles are moved in the direction of conveyance at a speed that is generally higher than articles traveling on the bed that have yet to be manipulated and the articles are selectively rotated.

摘要： A lift assembly for raising and lowering a load includes a first member, which is adapted for resting on a reference surface, and a second member, which defines a support surface for supporting a load. The lift assembly also includes a drive assembly, which selectively moves the second member relative to the first member from an initial position to a final position to raise or lower the second member relative to the first member. The drive assembly is adapted to move the second member from the initial position at a progressively increasing speed to an intermediate position and after which at a progressively decreasing speed until the second member is moved to the final position.

摘要： A shaft support for supporting a shaft end of a conveyor roller is pivotable about an axis extending generally along the direction of conveyance of a conveyor, such that the support may pivot to accommodate a change in vertical positioning of one or both ends of the roller. The shaft support may also be pivotable about a generally vertical axis in order to also accommodate skewed rollers mounted at an angle not perpendicular to the direction of conveyance. Because the shaft support is pivotable about the axis extending in the direction of conveyance, the shaft support simplifies the installation and removal of the motorized roller, while providing for a roller does not require a spring loaded shaft or axle. The roller may thus be a low cost roller which may be easily installed and removed from the conveyor.
摘要翻译：用于支撑输送辊的轴端的轴支撑件可以围绕通常沿着输送机的输送方向延伸的轴线枢转，使得支撑件可枢转以适应辊的一端或两端的垂直定位的变化。轴支撑件也可以围绕大致垂直的轴线枢转，以便也容纳以不垂直于输送方向的角度安装的倾斜的辊。由于轴支撑件能够围绕沿输送方向延伸的轴线枢转，所以轴支架简化了电动辊的安装和拆卸，同时提供了一个辊子不需要弹簧加载的轴或轴。因此，辊可以是低成本的辊，其可以容易地从输送机安装和移除。
