Abstract: A workpiece conveying apparatus for a working machine including provided with a slider rail arranged vertically on the body of the workpiece conveying apparatus, a drive source, a parallel link consisting of the slider link which is fitted crossing at right angles to and slidably in said slider rail, a slider arm, a lower slider link carrying a work holder and a sub arm and being connected rotatably with each other, a rocking lever being connected to the middle portion of the slider arm rotatably and rocked by a driving mechanism at a predetermined angle, whereby the work holder can convey a workpiece into or out of the specified position along with the intentional locus settled selectively so as to reduce the operating range, and keep a continuous working operation of the working machine, resulting in the durability of the working machine.

Abstract: A reversible drive device rotates a sprocket wheel so that an endless chain engaging said sprocket wheel moves through a vertical path and then in a semicircular path around a chain guide. A workpiece conveyed by a conveyor device from a preceding stage is clamped by a clamping device extending from a base end of a workpiece retaining arm having an outer end connected to said chain. If the workpiece is to be transferred in an inverted orientation, a slider pivotally supporting the base end of the workpiece retaining arm is raised along a slide guide by the chain; then the outer end of the workpiece retaining arm circles around the upper end of the chain guide together with the chain, thereby rotating the workpiece retaining arm by half a turn and inverting the workpiece.

Abstract: A work-conveying apparatus which conveys a work stably and without fail from the receipt of the work transferred from a conveying apparatus in the previous step to the transfer of the work to a conveying apparatus in the next step.
