| 20110174598 | Tote for conveyor - A tote for a conveyor system may include an upper part and a lower part. The upper part may define an upper, article-supporting surface. The article-supporting surface may be adapted to receive and support articles while the articles are conveyed in or on the tote. The lower part may define a lower, substantially plane bearing surface that extends over an area substantially equal to the article-supporting surface. The upper and lower parts may be transparent to X-rays. The upper and lower parts may be made from fire-retardant material. A plurality of support points and areas may be provided between the upper part and the lower part in order to transfer forces between the article-supporting surface and the bearing surface. | 07-21-2011 |
| 20100176663 | SORTING SYSTEM WITH LINEAR SYNCHRONOUS MOTOR DRIVE - The present invention relates to a sorting system including a conveyor comprising a plurality of carts for carrying articles, in particular for sorting articles such as parcels and baggage. The conveyor has a linear synchronous motor drive system with stators arranged along a track which the carts follow. Reaction elements are mounted on each of the carts. The reaction elements each comprise an even or an uneven number of permanent magnets arranged on a plate-like carrier. The magnets on reaction elements of adjacent carts are arranged to form arrow of magnets with alternating polarity, said row having two neighbouring magnets. At least one of the two neighbouring magnets has a reduced dimension in the transport direction, and the two neighbouring magnets are situated at a transition between adjacent carts. | 07-15-2010 |
| 20100175967 | SORTING SYSTEM WITH LINEAR SYNCHRONOUS MOTOR DRIVE - The present invention relates to a sorting system including a conveyor comprising a plurality of carts for carrying articles, in particular for sorting articles such as parcels and baggage. The conveyor has a linear synchronous motor drive system with stators arranged along a track which the carts follow. It is an object of the present invention to provide an improved sorting system as well as to provide a sorting system with improved energy utilisation and efficiency. Reaction elements are mounted on each of the carts. The reaction elements each comprise an uneven number of permanent magnets arranged on a plate-like carrier. The magnets on reaction elements of adjacent carts are arranged to form arrow of magnets with constant pitch and alternating polarity said row having an interruption situated at a transition between adjacent carts. A maximum number of coils in the stator may thereby be active at the same time, when driving the conveyor. | 07-15-2010 |
