Definitions
- the invention relates to a conveyor device according to the preamble of claim 1.
- a conveyor device comprising a guide rail and transport means guided on the guide rail and driven in a conveying direction is known from the patent specification CH 382 768.
- This known conveying device allows printed products to be gripped, conveyed along the rail and deposited at a remote location.
- a disadvantage of this known device is the fact that the conveying means are at a relatively large mutual distance and the printed products can therefore only be conveyed with a low density.
- the conveying means which each comprise a trolley and a holding means, are firmly connected to one another and are designed to be relatively large.
- a conveyor device comprising a guide rail and at least one transport means guided on the guide rail and driven in a conveying direction, a ferromagnetic flux guide element fixedly arranged with respect to the guide rail comprising a magnet, and the transport means each having two mutually spaced, ferromagnetic see flow control parts, which are designed and arranged in such a way that, on the one hand, a magnetic circuit is formed between a ferromagnetic armature part detachably attached to the means of transport, and on the other hand, the flow control parts and the flow control element are mutually adapted to form an air gap such that the two flow control parts form a magnetic circuit with the flux guide in order to produce a magnetically generated attraction force on the armature part.
- the conveyor device comprises a guide rail with a plurality of transport means guided on the guide rail.
- these means of transport have a load side on which an object to be transported can be attached or on which an object to be transported can be placed.
- Each means of transport comprises a plurality of sliding or rolling means, which are designed in particular as a pin or as a wheel, which for example engage in oppositely arranged V-shaped grooves in a guide rail, so that the means of transport is guided through the guide rail in a conveying direction.
- the transport means has two mutually spaced ferromagnetic flux control parts, which on one end of which opens to the load side and the other end of which is aligned to form a ferromagnetic flux guide element, forming an air gap.
- This flux guide comprises a magnet, which is designed, for example, as a permanent magnet.
- the magnet, the flux guide elements and the flux control parts thus form a magnetic circuit. If a ferromagnetic armature part is placed on the load side, it is attracted by the means of transport due to the magnetically generated attraction force and thereby held on the means of transport.
- the conveying device thus allows an object to be transported or a ferromagnetic armature part to be connected to the transport means in a controllable manner via magnetic forces or also to be separated from the transport means.
- the object to be transported can rest directly on the means of transport.
- another means suitable for transporting an object on the ferromagnetic armature part e.g. a supporting part arranged above the anchor part or a holding means hanging on the anchor part.
- the ferromagnetic flux guide arranged on both sides of a guide rail in a preferred embodiment can extend in the conveying direction of the guide rail over a longer section or over the entire length of the guide rail.
- a ferromagnetic flux guide designed in this way has a plurality of magnets spaced apart in the conveying direction, so that the magnetic circuit has a sufficiently large magnetic flux at each point to hold the armature part securely on the means of transport.
- moving means of transport generates a magnetic flux at every point, so that the armature part, which rests on the load side of the means of transport, constantly experiences an attractive magnetic force.
- the magnets can also be designed as electromagnets, the electromagnet consisting of at least one coil wound around the flux guide element.
- An electromagnet has the advantage that the magnitude of the magnetic flux and thus the magnitude of the magnetically generated attraction force can be controlled.
- a ferromagnetic flux guide can also comprise a permanent magnet and an electromagnet, the electromagnet being controllable in such a way that the permanent magnet and the electromagnet either generate a mutually rectifying, mutually reinforcing magnetic flux, or produce an oppositely directed, mutually reducing magnetic flux.
- the conveyor device according to the invention is particularly suitable for conveying printed products.
- the anchor part can be configured, for example, as a conveyable means that can be guided by rail, as disclosed in the same patent application No. 1997 2962/97 (representative number A12204CH) by the same applicant with the title "Applicable means of conveyance and guide rail for conveying the conveyance”.

- Fig. 11 schematically shows a further exemplary embodiment of a guide rail with a means of transport.
- Fig. 1 shows a cross section through a conveyor device 20.
- a U-shaped first guide rail 1 has V-shaped grooves on the opposite side surfaces, which are used to guide the wheels 3b of a means of transport 3.
- the first guide rail 1 defines a conveying direction F in which the transport means 3 is preferably conveyed in a driven manner.
- a flux guide element 5 is arranged on the first guide rail 1 and consists of two flux guide parts 5a, 5b and a permanent magnet 4.
- the two flow control parts 5a, 5b are L-shaped and firmly connected to the guide rail 1.
- the flux guide parts 5a, 5b have a lower section which runs in the vertical direction, the permanent magnet 4 being coupled to the ends thereof.
- the transport means 3 has a base body 3a made of a non-ferromagnetic material, for example made of aluminum or a plastic.
- Two L-shaped, mutually spaced, ferromagnetic flux guide parts 3c are arranged on this base body 3a, one end 3i of which opens to the load side 3h and the other end 3k is arranged opposite the flux guide gans 5a, 5b, forming an air gap 8a.
- the two table parts 3c covered with a cover part 3d made of a non-ferromagnetic material, and between the two ferromagnetic parts 3c there is also a middle part 3e made of a non-ferromagnetic material, so that the two ferromagnetic parts 3c, without projecting beyond the surface, on the load side 3h lead.
- the flux guide element 5, comprising the magnet 4 and the flux guide parts 5a, 5b, as well as the air gap 8a and the two flux guide parts 3c, form a magnetic circuit 8.
- FIG. 2 shows a conveying device 20 with a ferromagnetic body, which rests on the load side 3h and is designed as an armature part 6, and which closes the magnetic flux circuit 8, so that a magnetically generated attraction force Fm on the armature part 6 is brought about by the transport means 3.
- Objects 6 of any shape can be arranged on the surface 3h of the transport means 3 and can be transported coupled to the carriage 3 by means of magnetically acting forces.
- the conveyor device 20 according to the invention thus allows an object in
- the object 6 being able to be separated from the means of transport 3 at any time or at any predeterminable location, or being able to be connected to the means of transport 3.
- the magnetic circuit 8 is arranged so that the field lines in the air gap 8a run perpendicular to the magnetic force Fm generated. This arrangement has the advantage that the magnetic force Fm between the carriage 3 and the
- Anchor part 6 is generated so that the wheels 3b do not experience any direct load from the force Fm.
- the load side 3h has a non-slip partial surface in order to bring about additional static friction on the anchor part 6.
- FIG. 3 shows a means of transport 3 which has on both sides two sliding bodies 3b spaced apart in the conveying direction F, which are slidably mounted in the first guide rail 1.
- a ferromagnetic armature part 6 is connected to the transport means 3 via magnetically acting forces.
- the magnets 4 are spaced apart in the conveying direction F, so that a magnetic circuit 8 is continuously formed in the conveying direction F and thus a magnetic force Fm is constantly generated by the transport means 3 on the body 6 in the conveying direction F.
- FIG. 4 shows magnets 4 which are arranged at different distances in the conveying direction F of the first guide rail 1.
- 4 also shows the magnetic flux ⁇ as a function of the rail length, three magnets 4 which generate a relatively large magnetic flux, being arranged in a first rail section la, three magnets 4 being arranged at a greater mutual distance in a subsequent rail section 1b are, so that there is a lower magnetic flux ⁇ compared to the rail section la.
- the magnets 4 are even further in the rail section 1c spaced, so that there is a further reduction in the magnetic flux ⁇ .
- no flux guide element 5 could be arranged in the rail section 1d, so that there is no magnetic flux ⁇ .
- the magnets 4 can be designed as permanent magnets or also as electromagnets, in particular also as such, which allow the magnetic flux ⁇ to be controlled and adjusted.
- FIG. 5a shows a longitudinal view and FIG. 5b shows a top view of the transport means 3, the end face of which is shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
- the transport means 3 has a cuboid base 3a made of a non-ferromagnetic material. Recesses for receiving the wheels 3b are provided within the base body. Above the main body 3a, two spaced L-shaped ferromagnetic flux guide parts 3c are arranged. As can be seen from FIG. 5b, the two spaced-apart flow control parts 3c run parallel to the conveying direction F on the surface of the load side 3h.
- FIG. 6 shows a plan view of a ferromagnetic armature part 6 designed as a rail-guided slider, wherein the rail parts 2a, a gap 2b, and a guide parts 2c with inner surfaces 2d having a second guide rail 2 are also shown.
- 7 shows a cross section through a first guide rail 1 and a second guide rail 2.
- the second guide rail 2 is arranged below the first guide rail 1 and is designed to run parallel to the first guide rail 1.
- Guide rail 2 comprises two rail parts 2a, which are L-shaped and one leg of which is designed as a side part 2e, which is firmly connected to the flux guide part 5a, 5b.
- the rail part 2a with the side part 2e is made of a non-ferromagnetic material, for example aluminum or a plastic. Between the two rail parts 2a there is a gap 2b which serves to guide the slider 6.
- a guide part 2c with an inner surface 2d is arranged on both sides of the upper surface of the rail part 2a, the inner surfaces 2d serving to guide the slider 6 or the sliding body 6a in the lateral direction.
- the second guide rail 2 is designed such that in the illustrated state, in which the slider 6 is firmly connected to the transport means 3 by the magnetically acting forces, there is no mutual contact of the slider 6 with the second guide rail 2 , so that the second guide rail would not be required. For this is between the slider 6 and the second
- the slider 6 is arranged suspended from the transport means 3 and connected to a holding means 11, which comprises a bracket 11a, a joint 11b and two tongues 11c.
- the magnetic force Fm generated by the transport means 3 via the magnetic circuit 8 on the slider 6 is sufficient to securely connect the holding means 11 to the transport means 3.
- This embodiment is particularly suitable for conveying light, flat printed products.
- 8 shows a further cross section through the first guide rail 1 with a release and holding device 12 which is arranged on the side of the guide rail 1 and which has on both sides of the rail 1 a retaining finger 12a which is movable in the direction of movement 12b and acts on the slider 6.
- This release and holding device 12 allows the ferromagnetic armature part 6 to be detached from the transport means 3, or the transport means 3 can be controlled or held together with the armature part 6 in a controllable manner.
- the release and holding device 12 allows a backlog of anchor parts 6 lying one behind the other to be formed, the anchor parts 6 to be buffered, and to be released in a controlled manner, for example individually or in groups.
- FIG. 9 shows a further exemplary embodiment of a guide rail 1 with transport means 3.
