A substantially vertical elevator (5) for the transport of round and/or spherical objects, for example golf balls, between different levels, the elevator including a conveyor belt (11) which extends between an upper roller at an upper level and a lower roller at a lower level and which passes a number of emptying points between the rollers. A number of spaced carrier planes (12) extending transversely of the conveyor belt, on which planes the objects are capable of resting during the movement of the conveyor belt (11) from a replenishment point (6) to the emptying point or emptying points. An ejector (13) is disposed, between the carrier planes (12) and is actuable at the emptying points for removal of the objects on the adjacent carrier plane (12) to a receptacle container provided at the emptying point in question. |

ROOKE SYDNEY W |
An endless conveyor comprising an endless main driving member guided along the path of the conveyor and pivotally coupled to a load carrier which is also pivotally connected to an endless control member, the main and control members being guided with respect to each other such that the attitude of the load carrier is under positive control throughout its travel along the conveyor path, and is varied in dependence on the relative distance between the main driving member and the control member. The control member is displaced with respect to the path of the main driving member by an amount equal to the effective length of the connection between the carrier pivot axis and the control member in each region of the conveyor where the load carrrier is horizontal. The load carrier is coupled to the control member by means which adjust the effective length of the coupling where the load carrier is being pivoted between two limit positions.

The present invention relates to continuous elevating and lowering devices disposed in back-to-back relation utilizing balancers carrying containers and mobile ejectors for removing the containers from the elevator. The mobile ejectors of the present invention include an ejection arm subject to pivotal movement controlled by a cam which cam provides successive movements for removal of a stop which prevents swinging of the container; begins disengagement of the container from the elevator by a push arm and ends the pushing of the container into disengaged position by a second push arm. The mobile ejector removes the containers from the elevator without balancing them and the containers remain in a substantially vertical position during removal.

CARLIER CLAUDE; GRAVEZ ANDRE |
An automatic loading and unloading device for an elevator of the paternoster type in which an endless chain is provided with a number of load supporters spaced along its length. The chain is driven in a vertical plane so that the load supporters may be driven vertically past spaced loading and unloading stations such as when transferring a load between different stories of a building. Each station includes mechanism for transferring a load between the station and the load supporters on the chain. Each such mechanism is actuable in response to the presence of a selected load carried by the chain.

ARNOULD MARCEL M; WARD JOHN C JR; RAY WILLIAM FLOYD; BUDZYN BOLESLAW L |
A tobacco stick elevator having a pair of transversely spaced uprights with plates joining the top and bottom ends of the uprights. A motor driven endless conveyor chain passes around sprockets on the top and bottom plates. Longitudinally spaced socket bucket structures are fixed on the chain for removably receiving sticks loaded with tobacco leaves. Step units are fixed longitudinally along the uprights extending from one side thereof. A carriage is fixed on the uprights on the other side thereof adapted to ride on a track on a horizontal beam. A spacer frame is provided to hold the uprights away from a vertical supporting surface. Looped handles are also provided for protecting the motor mounted on the bottom plate.

The device comprises a closed path, along which overturning members (9; 9A-9D) move, which are configured to pick the products in the entrance position (3) and to release the products in the exit position (5). The overturning members (9; 9A-9D) are configured and arranged to perform, along a segment of the closed path comprised between the entrance position (3) and the exit position (5), a rotation by about 90°, in order to overturn the products while translating them from the entrance position (3) to the exit position (5) along said segment of path. |

A board turner assembly may include an endless chain, first and second groups of turning arms pivotably coupled with the endless chain and disposed along opposite sides thereof, an upper guide with an inclined surface, an actuator selectively operable to move the upper guide between a resting position and an extended position, and one or more endless belts. The turning arms may be spaced apart at regular intervals that are offset on one side of the chain relative to the other. The groups of turning arms may be operated in an alternating fashion to turn selected boards to a desired orientation (e.g., wane side up). Corresponding methods and systems are also described. |
