  • Patent number: 5242044
    Abstract: In a carriage for conveying an article such as an automobile body on a coating line, a sprocket on the carriage engages an endless chain running along the path of carriage movement. The sprocket causes the article to rotate on an axis parallel to the direction of movement of the carriage. A pendulum weight is provided to cause the article normally to assume an upright condition. A lever on the sprocket shaft engages a cam as the sprocket approaches engagement with the endless chain, and causes the weight to swing in one direction. When the lever clears the cam, the weight returns by gravity, causing the sprocket to begin rotating so that it smoothly engages the chain without shock. The operation of the lever, cam and weight also impart rotation to article to be painted before the sprocket engages the chain, thereby eliminating shocks in the rotating movement of the article, which could otherwise cause sagging or running of the paint.

  • Patent number: 5220991
    Abstract: In a coating line conveyor for an automobile body, in which the body is movable along a path and rotated on an axis parallel to the path, the article is stopped in its erect attitude without impact force. The article is supported so that the combined center of gravity of the article and its supports is located directly below the axis of rotation of the article when the article is erect. Rotation is stopped by removing rotating power from the article supports in response to a signal generated by a sensor when the article is in its erect condition. The article then rocks back and forth under its own inertia and rapidly approaches a stable erect condition by a naturally damped oscillating motion.
