Abstract: The present invention refers to a belt for overhead conveyor systems, of the type provided with regularly spaced openings (F), characterised by the fact that it has a close series of brackets (1) fixed to the upper longitudinal edge of the belt, each bracket being composed by an opposite pair of identical curved jaws (2, 3) and designed to support an opposite pair of wheels (10) with horizontal axis in central position and a single wheel with vertical axis at each end; it being provided that the wheels (8) allow the belt to remain coupled and slide inside a boxed rail that is the bearing structure of the overhead conveyor system.

Abstract: This patent application concerns a device for the collection, transfer and automatic unloading, using a single actuator, of garment hangers between two adjacent overhead transport lines (A, B), of the sort that are commonly used in the clothing industry or in their storage or shipment warehouses, where the handling of the garments from one operating station to an other occurs by means of closed loop overhead transport lines, on which the garments are hung each with a garment hanger. This device uses guide rails (9, 10) specially profiled where the hanger is collected and a special hook-carrier trolley (2) with a pair of rams (6a) suited to cooperate with appropriate matching cams.
