摘要 There is provided a conveying apparatus for the transport of conveyor belts, straps made of wire links, or conveying boxes in a heat treatment furnace in which the driving force to the articles conveyed takes place through two or more rolls rotating at the same speed in opposite directions, the rolls lie in a horizontal plane, are arranged in an acute angle to the conveying direction and forms an acute angle with each other.
权利要求
1. Conveying apparatus for conveyance of conveyor belts, wire link straps, conveyor boxes or the like in a heat treatment furnace, comprising a pair of similar cylindrical rollers defining a single conveying path, means mounting said rollers in generally longitudinally coextensive relation for rotation about axes disposed within a generally horizontal plane in converging relationship with respect to one another in the direction of the conveying path at an acute angle in the range of magnitude of 1* to 15*, the axes of rotation of each roller being coexistent with the axis of the cylindrical form thereof, means for simultaneously rotating said rollers about their axes of rotation in opposite directions so that their upper peripheries move with lateral components of movement which are equal and in opposite directions and longitudinal components of movement which are both in the same direction, and both of endless flexible means encircling both of said rollers including an upper flight engaging the upper periphery of said rollers and a return flight below said rollers and means for pressing said return flight upwardly against the lower periphery of said rollers.
2. Conveying apparatus as defined in claim 1 wherein the plane of the axes of rotation has a slight inclination in the direction of conveyance.
3. Conveying apparatus as defined in claim 1 wherein said endless flexible means includes a plurality of parallel transverse straps facing said rollers and a plurality of driving members extending outwardly from the periphery of said rollers for engaging said straps during the rotation of said rollers.
