  • Patent number: 7249673
    Abstract: A belt band conveyor having an endless transport belt that is guided over deflection rollers, to which a guide element that projects beyond the belt plane is attached. The guide element can be handled separately before it is attached to the transport belt and moves along as the transport belt moves. On its guide surfaces, which extend in the transport direction of the transport belt, running surfaces that are inclined relative to the belt plane roll off from rotating guide rollers as the transport belt moves. A plurality of separate clamping shoes are attached along the transport belt, each of which has an attachment profile attached to the transport belt, and a spring-elastic clamping element connected with such profile. An elastic/flexible guide strip that extends in the transport direction over the entire length of the transport belt is clamped in place relative to the attachment profile.

  • Patent number: 7157817
    Abstract: The invention relates to a drum drive that delimits an interior space intended for receiving an electromotor for producing a rotating movement of the drum. The electromotor comprises a stator, shell and stator cap. The stator is turnably journalled about the shaft (7), wherein the drive comprises at least one damping device (10) connected to the shaft (7) and to the stator, and extending radially from the shaft in a plane that is essentially at right angles thereto; and wherein the damping device (10) is configured for absorbing forces that strive to rotate the stator about the shaft.

  • Patent number: 7004310
    Abstract: The invention relates to a belt band conveyor such as a curved belt conveyor having an endless transport belt that is guided over deflection rollers. There is a guide element that projects beyond the belt plane wherein this guide element can be handled separately before it is attached to the transport belt. This guide element moves along as the transport belt moves, and on whose guide surfaces, which extend in the transport direction of the transport belt has running surfaces that are inclined relative to the belt plane roll off from rotating guide rollers as the transport belt moves. Thus, lateral forces that occur crosswise to the transport direction of the transport belt can be compensated. A plurality of separate guide shoes are attached to the transport belt, forming a guide strip for the guide rollers that extends in the transport direction, circulates, and is divided into multiple parts.

  • Patent number: 6907985
    Abstract: A device for conveying piece goods. The device comprises a sorting system for sorting the piece goods. The successively arranged conveying systems are guided with this device along a conveying line and can be driven by at least one driving means that engages a driving belt. In a first embodiment, there is a driving belt on the driving side and a driving belt on the driven side which each comprise a rubber chain comprising a toothed profile. The toothed profiles of both rubber chains are in a substantially similar form. The device can also have a driving belt that is clamped in a fixed manner between the clamping jaws of the rigid clamping profiles. These clamping jaws extend at least substantially over the entire length of respective conveying system or sorting system. Furthermore, the non-clamped length of driving belt between the successively disposed conveying systems is much shorter than the length of the clamping profiles.
