Abstract

Beschrieben wird eine Förderanordnung zum Fördern von in Schragen, die von Containern umgeben sind, angeordneten stabförmigen Artikeln der tabakverarbeitenden Industrie von Produktionsmaschinen (3,4) zu Weiterverarbeitungsmaschinen (16) unter Verwendung eines Zwischenlagers (Z) für leere und mit Artikeln gefüllte Schragen enthaltende Container.A conveyor arrangement for conveying in trays is described Containers are surrounded, arranged rod-shaped articles of tobacco processing Industry from production machines (3,4) to further processing machines (16) using an intermediate storage (Z) for empty trays filled with articles containing containers.

Der Zweck der beschriebenen Förderanordnung besteht in einer Vereinfachung ähnlicher bekannter Systeme.The purpose of the conveyor arrangement described is to simplify it similar known systems.

Die Lösung besteht darin, daß ein Transfermittel (24) für Container (8) zur direkten Kopplung der Maschinen (3,4;12) vorgesehen ist.The solution is that a transfer means (24) for containers (8) for direct coupling the machines (3, 4; 12) is provided.

Durch den Lösungsgedanken ist es möglich, ohne komplizierte sich selbsttätig steuernde Flurfahrzeuge Produktionsmaschinen mit Weiterverarbeitungsmaschinen und umgekehrt zu verbinden.

Figure 00000001
The idea of the solution makes it possible to connect production machines with further processing machines and vice versa without complicated, automatically controlled floor vehicles.
