Abstract: A method for predicting a low visibility set-up option for an airport moving map includes determining a visibility at a particular airport and predicting a low visibility set-up option for an airport moving map for the particular airport in response to the visibility being below a predetermined value. The method also includes retrieving from a data storage device the low visibility set-up option for the airport moving map in response to predicting the low visibility set-up. The method additionally includes applying the low visibility set-up option to the airport moving map for the particular airport. The method further includes presenting the airport moving map on a display including geospatial low visibility information based on the low visibility set-up option.

Abstract: A system for determining an anchoring location of a marine vessel. The system includes a first computing device configured to capture location data of the marine vessel along a route of the marine vessel, and a second computing device. The second computing device including a memory area, a location component that determines location data of a marine vessel, and a processor. The processor is programmed to receive, from the first computing device, the location data of the marine vessel, determine, from the location data, a location along a route of the marine vessel that the marine vessel traveled a distance less than a maximum threshold distance over a predefined period of time, and identify the location along the route of the marine vessel that the marine vessel traveled a distance less than the anchoring threshold distance over the predefined period of time as an anchoring location.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system for transporting coat hangers employing a conveyor screw capable of being driven about its longitudinal axis by a driving system. The conveyor screw is adapted to convey, in a direction of transport, hook coat hangers to be transported. The driving system is coupled to the front end of the conveyor screw, as regarded in the direction of transport.

Abstract: A suspension-conveyor diverter for a conveyor for transporting hanging objects, including items of clothing hanging on hangers disposed on the conveyor, and having a conveying guide for a driveable conveying member, and also having a first carrying-element guide for at lease one transporting roller, on which the object can be hung by a carrying element such that the carrying element engages with the conveying member, and further having a second carrying-element guide, which is spaced apart from the first carrying-element guide. It is noted that a pivoting guide is provided with one end being articulated on one carrying-element guide, and which is preset such that the other free end of the pivoting guide strikes against the other carrying-element guide, so that the pivoting guide connects the first carrying-element guide and the second carrying-element guide to one another. The pivoting guide is set up for actuation, such as for deflection, by the carrying-element.

Abstract: An overhead conveying apparatus, in particular for items hanging on hooks, having a conveying chain which is guided in a chain guide, the chain including chain studs which project laterally beyond chain flanges disposed on one side of the chain. Plate-like carrying elements are provided with holes for receiving the chain studs therethrough when the plate-like carrying elements have been pushed onto the chain studs. The carrying elements have a plate-like construction and are arranged one after the other on the chain. The carrying elements are provided with at least one opening or one cutout therethrough for accommodating a hook for the items.

Abstract: An overhead conveying apparatus, in particular for items hanging on hooks, having a conveying chain (4) which is guided in a chain guide (3), the chain (4) having chain studs (5) which project laterally beyond the chain flanges (13) on one side of the chain (4), there being provided plate-like carrying elements (19) which are arranged in a state in which they have been pushed onto the bolts (5) by way of holes (20), the carrying elements (19) being of plate-like design and being arranged one after the other on the chain, the carrying elements (19) having at least one opening (30) or one cutout (30) for accommodating a hook for the items.

Abstract: Suspension conveyor for transporting suspended material which hangs on a hook, such as garments on coat hangers, with trolleys suspended on a rail. The conveyor has carrying rods on which the hooks are suspended, with at least one descending discharging rod by which the material slides off under gravity. A transfer finger, arranged at the upper end of the discharging rod, and movable against the carrying rod of a trolley in a transfer position to engage underneath the hook, has an ascending ramp section to release the hooks which move over the ascending ramp section. A retaining device keeps the garments away from the transfer position on the trolley carrying rods until the finger is pivoted into the material transfer position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a take-over apparatus for goods suspended from hooks and transported with a suspension transporting apparatus, particularly for items of clothing hanging on clothes hangers, in order to take over the hooks, which overlap a carrier rod, from this carrier rod and transport them to a release rod with a descending course, the release rod having an end region, which can be set against the carrier rod and, with its free end, can grasp the hooks from below, and a device for transporting the hooks along the end region of the release rod being provided, the free end of the end region of the release rod being constructed as a rotatable worm, which is driven by driving means disposed in the end region, in order to take hold of a hook overlapping the carrier rod.

Abstract: The invention pertains to a coupling device for a conveyor device which in particular is used for the suspended transport of clothing in the garment industry, whereby the conveyor device comprises a support rail which is suspended on a runner or a similar element, and whereby stay pipes (7) are arranged as holding devices in a movable fashion on said support rail via support straps (15). According to the invention, adjacent stay pipes (7) may be connected to each other selectively by coupling elements (1,2) that may engage each other. A blocking device (20,21) is provided for selectively blocking and releasing the coupling connection between adjacent stay pipes (7), whereby the blocking device comprises a blocking block (22) which is connected to the end of the stay pipe and assigned to the respective coupling element (1,2), and the blocking block may be pivoted between a blocking position and a release position in which the coupling engagement is not prevented.
