414799000 | APPARATUS FOR POSITIONING PLURAL ORDERLY ARTICLES ONTO PALLET | 9 |
20090238672 | Infeed station of a stack palletizing system and method for transferring stacks to a gripper with an infeed station of this type - An infeed station has a stack feeder and a first and second chamber, which can each receive stacks from the stack feeder. The stacks can be conveyed in the chambers and can be transferred to a stack gripper with the conveyors assigned to the first chamber and the second chamber. First centering units serve to center the stacks in the first chamber, and second centering units serve to center the stacks in the second chamber. Third conveyors are arranged between the first and second conveyors. The first and second centering units can be shifted relative to each other so that the third conveyors are positioned in the first or second chamber, and the chamber with the third conveyors is much wider than the other chamber. The infeed station can be changed between double infeed with parallel processing of two stacks and single infeed with processing of only one stack of relatively great width at a time. | 09-24-2009 |
20100034633 | APPARATUS AND METHOD OF PALLETIZING LOOSE PIECE ARTICLES - A method and apparatus for moving loose piece articles positioned on a slip sheet. A vacuum head is moved into proximity with the loose piece articles positioned on a slip sheet. A vacuum is created which causes the slip-sheet, and the loose piece articles positioned thereon, to be drawn toward a surface of the vacuum head and maintained in such position as the vacuum head transports the slip-sheet and the loose piece articles positioned thereon. | 02-11-2010 |
20100111663 | Mobile Split Palletizer - A modular split palletizer for loading layers of articles on stackable pallets. The palletizer has a frame supporting first, second, and third sections. The first section includes a layer build area and a first portion of a stacker transfer track. The second section includes a tier sheet bin, a top frame bin, and a second portion of the track. The third section includes a pallet build area and a third portion of the track. Each of the first, second, and third sections can be disassembled, moved individually and independently, and re-assembled at a new location to form the complete palletizer. Also disclosed is a method of relocating the modular split palletizer. With the palletizer at one location, the utilities connected to the palletizer are disconnected, the fasteners holding the sections together are released, and the sections are separated. The disassembled sections are moved to the new location and reassembled. | 05-06-2010 |
20120009053 | SYSTEM FOR FORMING LAYERS OF PACKAGES TO BE PALLETIZED, AND PALLETIZATION PLANT THEREOF - A gripping head ( | 01-12-2012 |
20120134770 | DEVICE FOR PRESENTING A PRODUCT TO A MANIPULATOR AS WELL AS SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AUTOMATED LOADING OF A CARRIER - The invention provides a device for presenting a product to a manipulator, comprising a transfer location provided with a number of mutually parallel first support elements, each having an elongated horizontal first support edge, and a number of strip-shaped second support elements extending parallel to each other and perpendicular to said first support elements, each having an elongated horizontal second support edge, wherein the first support elements on the one hand and the second support elements on the other hand can move vertically up and down relative to each other. This way spaces can be made between the first support elements and between the second support elements respectively, in which spaces finger means of a manipulator can be inserted for picking up a product. The invention further provides a system and a method for automated loading of a carrier. | 05-31-2012 |
20130017054 | PACKAGE UNIT AND LOADING METHOD AND LOADING STRUCTURE THEREFORAANM Mitsuhashi; RenichiAACI TokyoAACO JPAAGP Mitsuhashi; Renichi Tokyo JP - A package unit includes: a thin packaged product in which a thin display device is packed; an individual packaging pallet formed in a substantially rectangular shape corresponding to a shape of the packaged product loaded, the individual packaging pallet including fork insertion openings in a side surface in a long side direction thereof; and a loading pallet formed in a substantially rectangular shape corresponding to a shape of a plurality of package bodies including the packaged product and the individual packaging pallet, the package bodies loaded side by side, the loading pallet including fork insertion openings in both of a side surface in a long side direction thereof and a side surface in a short side direction thereof. | 01-17-2013 |
20150314455 | Method and Tool for Palletizing Mixed Load Products - The problem of the lag time in picking and dropping mixed load products during a palletization process is solved by using a tool having i) a gripping member that can be partially closed in a first fast movement while it is moved by a robot towards a product and then closed onto the product in a second shorter movement and ii) a product abutting plate that is movable in unison with the tool in opposite direction thereof as the tool is moved by a robot towards and away the mixed load pallet. | 11-05-2015 |
20150360885 | Apparatus and Method for Palletizing Multi-Reference Loads - Multi-reference palletizing device comprising first displacement means ( | 12-17-2015 |
20160023853 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR LOADING A PALLET - A method for loading a pallet with different individual packs of a picked order includes a first method step in which the individual packs to be palletized are delivered in a conveyor cart, a second method step in which the individual packs are separated, positioned and prepared for palletizing in such a way that a palletizing station has access to all of the individual packs and a third method step in which the individual packs are picked in a sequence predetermined by the palletizing station and stacked on the pallet. A device for performing the method includes one or more palletizing stations with a storage device for the individual packs and with a continuous conveying loop acting as a conveying path for the conveyor cart. | 01-28-2016 |
