  • Entraining element for a gripper shuttle
    Patent number: 4128115
    Abstract: The entraining element is constructed of a carrier, a striking member and a support member. The striking member is fixed to the conveyor chain via the carrier and has a resilient striking plate which extends transversely of the gripper shuttle path for returning a shuttle to the picker. The support member is mounted behind the striking plate to define a gap with the striking plate in the unloaded state. Upon deflection of the striking plate during loading, the plate abuts resiliently against the support member.
