Summary Overview a facility of has Intended character can no technical equipment and functional system according to the following.

A. COMMON FOR PARKING FACILITIES AND FREIGHT HANDLING FACILITIES: Warehouse building / stables Lift device Platforms Body on which the platforms roll Mechanical equipment for horizontal movement of the platforms Body for control of the platforms during transport - Sprains between "

Device for slashing empty B.SPECIALLY FOR FACILITIES FOR STORAGE AND HANDLING OF GOODS: Transport path for moving the platforms outside the actual warehouse building.

Unloading place LOsa components with which you can build special compartments on the platforms used in conventional pallets with goods can be placed.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE VARIOUS COMPONENTS 1. The warehouse building This name also includes, for example, stables with or without roofing outer walls. The building consists of a number of storeys, completely or partly underground, to be built in steel construction or concrete. In each floor plan there are a number of parking spaces for the platforms. Such a space (called a "load box") has a rectangular shape and roughly the same surface area as a platform, however, with the necessary compensation to enable a certain amount of clearance and to compensate for certain surfaces leaning 2 • • • • • .4. • .0 0, 0 • 0046 0 can be fully utilized with the view of elevator players and the like.

The load boxes are arranged so that a shaft for the lift is formed between them. It can be performed according to three alternatives (see figure LA-B and figure 2.

Alt. A: 8 load boxes are arranged around a shaft with approximately the same surface mat as a load box. (The load boxes are denoted in the following by a little. A-G and I. The elevator is denoted by H.) Alt. B: In each leveling plan, 4 load boxes were carried, each side facing a shaft that has approximately the same surface mat as a load box.

Alt. C: Any number of load boxes is placed in 2 rows with an elongated shaft in between.

Load-bearing joists are built in concrete or in steel construction, which can usually have 4 longitudinal or 5 transverse supporting beams. Floor slabs of suitable material are placed between the supporting beams. Recesses are arranged in the floor layer for mounting roller members (see below under p.4). 2. The elevator device Total. A and B you have a permanently mounted elevator of conventional type. It can suitably be made with two bearing planes with an in-height height corresponding to the distance between two leveling planes. In addition - for transporting Comma platforms - you can have a third lift plane with a height distance of about 30 cm to the lift plane closest to above.

In total. C you can have one or two elevator towers that walk sideways in the shaft. Or you can let a traverse from the elevator traverse the movement horizontally between the loading bays.

Separately separated. Of course, it is important that the elevator system is constructed in such a way that the pillars in the corner of the elevator shaft no longer need to increase the surface of the shaft and also the load windows. The piattforms must be able to pass between the lift players, and thereby you can get some dOd space.

A large part of the surface loss as above can be avoided by arranging the load-bearing elevator columns according to figure 3. The elevator columns p with width and depth eg 20 cm x 55 cm are placed completely outside the shaft and engage on the surface only in boxes D and I In the pillars you also have good. space for ducts for the elevator counterweights and for wiring etc. There is also space for the elevator car's own bearing horn pillars. 7-.11- ••• • o • • •••• ••• 3 The ground floor of the elevator can be made according to figure 4: a TWO Bearing beams the short ends of the elevator plane. The beams are connected by 4 longitudinal beams - beams b - preferably medert-profile, in which the ball rollers are mounted. The beams a push in the outer part of the pillars p. On this part of the beams a is placed the elevator's bearing corner pillar C.

With the arrangement according to figure 3, the surface loss per floor plan will be only 2.52 sqm (210 cm x 3 x 0.2 x 2). The system presupposes that the possibility of transferring platforms directly between any of the four corner squares A, C, E and G and any of the squares D and I is avoided. However, such a possibility of transfer is not necessary, since all the four squares B, D , F and I are operated directly from the lift, using its 4 conveyors (see below under p. 5 b). And the four corner squares A, C, E and G are operated directly from squares B and F through the four conveyors, which are placed perpendicular to the boundary lines.

The arrangement also means that you save the cost for 4 conveyors, which would otherwise have been placed in the boundary lines between the 4 corner windows and D and I. respectively, the rather rare cases, where a platform from a corner window, eg A, must be transferred to the elevator, while load box B Mr coated, this is solved easily and relatively quickly by starting by Transferring the platform on box B to the upper floor of the lift. Then the platform is transferred from box A via box B to the lower level of the lift, and when the lift then goes down, it stops and moves the platform from the upper level back to box B. 3. The platforms These can also be of the same type for goods handling. which the Pallet Parking System PPS, which was patented by Nils Gynne, was used for parking cars. The platforms for goods handling can conveniently be supplemented with lOsa components according to p. 11 below. •• ••• ••• • s • • • • • • ••• • 601.0 It * 4 Bodies on which the platforms roll For facilities where it is necessary to move the platforms both in the longitudinal and transverse directions, the so-called ball rollers.

These can conveniently be placed in the load-bearing floor of the load box. For each load box, 16 or ball rollers are recommended, placed so that they form 4 longitudinal and 4 or 5 transverse rows.

Alternatively, the ball rollers can be placed on the underside of the platform.

MECHANICS FOR HORIZONTAL MOVEMENT TRIGITORS To ask about the movement of a platform either between two adjacent load boxes or between a lift and a load box and vice versa. a. Movement between two load panes is sufficient with an end conveyor, placed at an angle to the center of the boundary between the load panes with approximately half in each pan. The conveyor is described as a Coaveyorn consisting of a spiritless conveyor belt that rotates around two gears mounted in an approximately 25 - 50 cm long lAda. On the conveyor belt there are a number of carriers working against a row of stops on the underside of the platform.

The carriers are mounted resiliently in such a way that a carrier acts as a pusher against a stop when the strap goes to one ballet, but springs down the strap when this goes to the other ball. Every other driver seems to be pushing to the right and every other is shooting to the left. The distance between the carriers can be, for example, 10 cm, which then meant that the distance will be 20 cm between two carriers working. At the same hall. In this case, the distance should be 20 cm between the stops on the underside of the platform. The carriers work against the stop according to the same principle as when a gear works against the teeth on a rack.

The stop may consist of a row of square small plates ("heels") approximately 3 - 7 mm high, placed so that they form a row in the longitudinal center line on the underside of the platform and a crossing row in the transverse center line. Conveyor or mounted in the floor of the load box • • • just as deep as the carriers on the upper side of the conveyor belt. • • somellan anhAllen reaches up to the underside of the platform with a gap • • room on someone etc.. • • • ••• 1 • • • • •• •••• See • • • •••• ••• 0. 11-e ••• OS. esti, • • • • ••• •• * • • • • • ••• •• ■ •• • • • •• • • •••. • • ••• • *: • In: *: Alternative you can make the stops in such a way that you make a row with square grooves 3 - 7 mm deep in the underside of the platform in the same places as those where you would otherwise have "heels". In that alternative, the conveyor is mounted a few mm to the right, so that a carrier under one of the recesses pushes up to the talc of the recess, with a clearance of flake etc., while a carrier between the recesses presses against the platform and springs down towards the conveyor belt. b. Movement between lift and load box Conveyors of the type described under 5 a can in themselves also be used for moving the platforms between the lift and the load boxes located directly next to the lift shaft. However, since such a conveyor cannot be positioned so that any part projects over the edge of the lift plane and into the adjacent loading window, a conveyor alone cannot manage to push a platform fully into the loading window; when the last carrier on the conveyor relaxes its grip on the outermost stop of the platform, there must always be a few cm of the platform still pushing over the border and into the lift. To cope with this last bit, the Alien must have a conveyor in the load box, which takes over and pulls when the conveyor in the elevator no longer pushes.

It is, among other things, this problem that is solved by the invention for which patent protection is now sought. It is possible to be satisfied with a single conveyor placed in the lift to move a platform between the lift and one of the load windows.

The main idea of this solution is that the conveyor is designed and mounted in such a way that it can displace the load in its place in the lift with the conveyor belt in its longitudinal direction. After the elevator has stopped at a level of habitation, but before the conveyor belt was started, the conveyor belt is thus shifted, so that it will slide into a recess in the edge of the load truck, far enough for the conveyor belt carrier to be able to pull the platform. from the lift • P • • 1 0 completely into the load box or vice versa.

The upper part consists of a barn a, in which the conveyor belt rolls around the gears b1 and b2. The barn a can suitably be so wide that, in addition to the conveyor belt, it can also accommodate the electric motor c which drives the belt around. The motor works suitably, via a gear unit, against the shaft on which one of the gears is fixedly mounted.

The barn a is mounted as follows on and in the foundation, which can suitably be an upright Open barn d (hereinafter referred to as "the trough": The underside of the barn a rests loosely on the upper edges of the trough. From the underside of the barn there are four perpendicularly projecting rectangular sheets of strong metal or other suitable material, e and f. The width of these discs corresponds to the inner width of the hopper, with the necessary clearance.

Between the curbs of the trough a rod g, of metal or the like, is fixedly mounted. The rod goes through a round hall in each of the discs e. La-clan a can thus slide back and forth on the upper edges of the trough, guided by discs on the e saint rod g. Forwards the barn can slide so far that a disc e abuts against the outer short end of the trough Baked, it can then slide so far that a slice of f -toter against the inner card of the trough.

The discs f each have a fl-shaped cutout with the same width as the diameter of the rod. They thus enclose the rod g at the top and on the sides. The rod has food (ie at the discs 0 an approximately 10-15 mm long part which is spirally threaded. Screwed on this part of the rod is between the discs f a wheel h, with the corresponding thread. On each side of this wheel there is probably a ball bearing etc. The distance between the discs f corresponds to the total width of the wheel and bearings.The natural wheel is rotated, eg clockwise, the wheel / ball bearing presses against a disc f with the effect that it is pushed outwards (towards the load window) and pulls the conveyor barn a. When the wheel is rotated counterclockwise, it presses against the second disc f and the barn a slides food.

The wheel is brought - by computer control to rotate by means of an electric motor, which by a gearing acts against the wheel on a light 7 V '• ••. • •• •• ■ ••• •• •• •• •• J • •• • • •. • • ••• • •• • • • -; • ••• • • ••• • • • •••• elli • • ••• satt. It can be teeth on the circumference of the wheel or a band between the wheel and a traction wheel placed on the electric motor. It is possible to use the same motor as the one that drives the conveyor belt. In that case, the engine must be fitted with two gears.

The trough d, which carried the barn a, is mounted in the floor of the elevator at a suitable depth, so that the carriers can work correctly against a platform, which is located above, supported by the ball rollers. The location shall be perpendicular to the center of the side of the lift edge, which lies along the load window that the conveyor is to serve. The outer short end of the trough must be immediately adjacent to the lift edge. This meant that if the load was displaced, for example, 10 cm, it would push about 9 cm into the adjacent load box. At its edge there is a recess which fits the salutary projecting part of the barn. This shall protrude into the load box sufficiently long for a carrier on the conveyor belt to be able to grasp and pull in the nearest stop under a platform which is to be carried from the load box into the lift. Only when the conveyor has been moved to this low started conveyor belt. 6. Body for controlling the platforms during movement For controlling the rolling platform, there are pre-secured grooves on the underside of the platform, crossing each other in the same way as the rows of ball rollers. Habit ball roll top shoots into the spar. - If the ball rollers are on the platforms, the grooves must of course be in the floor of the load box, which must then be covered with a hard board, used in the grooves.

Another way of controlling the platforms is to place a number of carriers in the outer edges of the load windows. Such a lamp can suitably be in the form of a cylinder which can rotate about a vertical axis anchored in the floor. Such drills can be made with such a height that they work against the side edges of the platform.

If you want to have drills in the boundary between two load windows, you can apply an alternative, according to which the drills only shoot up to the underside of the platform and work against drill strips mounted under the sides of the platform and shoot down about 10 mm. This alternative is especially recommended in such cases as you want to have control, eg the longitudinal direction, but maintain the possibility of moving the pallet sideways between two loading panes. To enable such a movement, the auger strips are mounted with openings for the auger cylinders and the conveyor so positioned that they are at a level flush with the openings when the platform is inside the load box, with its short end next to the fixed abers in the short end of the load box. From there, the platform can thus be rolled upwards into the adjacent load box, without the drill strips obstructing. 7. SAFETY RAILS In load boxes located next to the elevator shaft, a spar device is required to be tilted towards the shaft. The rafters must of course be submersible. The following is a description of how such a barrier can be suitably performed.

Figure 6 shows that it consists of a rafter rod a in a foundation b. The foundation b is a suggested 110 mm high pillar, preferably square with, for example, the mat 30 x 30 mm. A round channel passes through the column, the upper part c of which is about 50 mm high, has a diameter of approximately 20 mm, while the lower part d has a diameter of 14 mm and a height of, for example, 60 mm.

On the ledge e, which is formed, rests a spiral spring f, about 45 mm high. The locking rod a has a diameter of, for example, 14 mm and a length of, for example, 100 mm. At a distance of 30 mm from the top, the rod has a cuff, which projects 3 mm around the rod. With this cuff, the rod rests on the coil spring. In this case, the upper edge of the cuff is level with the upper edge of the foundation b, and the rod a protrudes above the foundation by 30 mm. The lower part of the rod protrudes into the narrow part of the channel about 20 mm.

Attached to the underside of the rod is one spirit of a flexible and strong line. This line must be pulled down through the channel d and out through a channel g which is drilled through the goods in the lower part of the foundation. By pulling this line, you can thus lower the ratchet rod to the 30 mm needed for it to protrude above the top of the foundation. But the tension in the line relaxes, the rod springs up again in its upper layer.

With the crossed circles a and b, height-adjustable rafters (of the type shown in Figure 6) are marked, which must always be present at the four edges of the lift plane and at the edges of the load windows that adjoin the lift shaft.

The circles c mark fixed beams placed in the boundary between a horn square A, C, E or G and its neighboring square. These drills work (see p. 6 c above) against strips along the edge of the underside of the platform.

The points at d mark fixed beams that project so high that they work towards the outer edges of the platforms.

The compartment, which is arranged at the inner edge of each of the four windows directly facing the lift, is marked with an e.

Figure 8 shows closer to the compartment e, which has the primary task of receiving the conveyor load when it is pushed from the lift more than about 10 cm into the load box, before the conveyor begins to transfer a platform from the lift to the load box or vice versa. (See above under point 5b). For that moj. is that the conveyor load movement can be used to bring the up and down movement of the rafters a, the compartment e has the following special construction details112.Ei The compartment consists of a bottom plate a with two approx. 3-4 cm projecting side cradles b, alit mounted so that the compartment pushes into the load box Approximately 15 cm. In the upper part of each cradle there is a channel c, which has two longitudinal openings d (hereinafter referred to as "columns"). Each column there is about 40 mm long and starts about 70 mm from the side cradle spirit towards the lift. In the channel there is a fitting e with two "projections" f and g that protrude through each column. The bracket e can move back and forth in the channel c. Between the bracket and the spirit of the channel, which is water away from the lift (hereinafter referred to as "inAt"), there is a strong helical spring h which presses the bracket to a "resting position" at the outer spirit of the channel . • • • • 0 The committee directed towards the inside of the union for a request, against I0; “" isio:: .. •• •• •• ••••• • ••• ••• • •• ae • which the conveyor wire pushes when the wire is pushed into the compartment, the projection projecting on the outside of the channel is attached to a line j, which is then drawn to one of the two rafters which in Figure 7 are marked with a. , placed immediately next to the resting position of the fitting I. The second spirit of the rope is attached to the lower spirit of the ratchet rod which in mark 6 is marked with a. The rope is completely stretched when the ratchet rod is in its upper position, resting on the dA unpressed helical spring in the rafter and sliding up about 30 mm above the foundation of the rafter.

When the conveyor belt is pushed into the compartment approx. 100 mm and thereby presses against the stop so that the fitting is displaced in just over 30 mm, this meant a corresponding pull in the line, so that the ratchet rod is pulled down to its lower low valley. Moves, for example, from the elevator to the load box. But when the conveyor then pulls the load out of the compartment back into the lift, so that the pressure against the fitting ceases, the spring h pushes the fitting to the resting layer in with the result that the line j is slackened 30 mm. When the line no longer pulls the ratchet rod down, the spring of the ratchet lifts the rod up to its upper position, so that the platform pushed into the load window cannot roll out.

When a platform is moved from, for example, the loading box B to one of the corner windows or vice versa, the rafters a in conjunction with the carriers provide the necessary control (see figure 7).

Lowering and raising of the rafters mounted in the elevator (figure 7b) is also achieved by utilizing the conveyor load's movement back and forth. The only difference in the procedure, compared with the one described above with respect to the rafters a, is that the pulling line is attached directly to the movable load, in a suitable position, and hence the pull to the lowering of the rafters, after first passing through a marl, is applied to such a distance from the rope's fastening in the load, that a displacement of the load approx. 100 mm ensures that the line is slackened or tightened the 30 mm needed for the ratchet rod to spring up to its upper layer or be pulled down to the lower layer.

•• P 11 •• •••• 11 If, for special reasons, one would also like to have the drills c (in the boundary between two loading panes) made according to figure 6, so that they are height-adjustable, this function can also be achieved by conveyorlAdans rOrelse is utilized. This is done by attaching one Spirit in the committee to a line that runs directly from the committee to the bottom of the rail without passing the flag marla or the like. and which hails the detachment pulled down when the stop is not exposed to pressure by the conveyor load but by the action of the spring is 1 resting layer in. When the load comes and pushes the stop f to its front position, the line is slackened 30 mm so that the locking bar in the rafters c spring its Upper position and clamed act as a guide towards the edge of the platform when it is pushed Over from the lift to the loading box B or tvArtom.

Magazine for empty pallets Especially in the parking facilities It is extremely important that an empty platform for a car to be parked can be fed quickly and without having to wait for the lift to pick up a free platform from an unused load box. This wish is met through an arrangement, for which Nils Gynne has obtained a patent according to, among other things. Swedish Patent No. 9000438-3. This meant that a "pallet magazine" was arranged in the form of an extra floor plan immediately below the entrance level. It is set up in the same way as a floor plan for load boxes, with ball rollers and conveyors, but the ceiling height only needs to be 25-30 cm. The pallet magazine is connected to a three-plane surface in addition to through the lift - through a lifting table, with ball rollers, etc. on the bar surface. The lifting table to be placed in the middle of an opening in the entrance level. The lifting table in its upper position thus forms a floor in the square at the entrance. You can also have a sAdant lifting table at the exit.

The transport path If the place for entrance or exit or loading or unloading is not arranged in immediate connection with the elevator shaft, a transport path is needed on which the platforms can roll between the different places. Such a web can consist of a number of "ball frames", ie metal frames with cow / rollers mounted with the same inbOrdes placement as the ball rollers in each load box (see figure 9). Experienced number of such abacus frames can be mounted on the floor on strac. cows of various kinds, for example: 12 between a window adjoining the lift and an entrance / exit place, which for the convenience of the driver is arranged next to the entrance to, for example, a department store or hotel, an airport terminal or a metro station, which a parking facility shall betjana; between the lift and a loading or unloading place (see below) which in a goods warehouse is arranged for rapid transfer of a platform with goods between the warehouse and a truck; between the warehouse and the workshop premises used in the goods are manufactured - so that the goods, as they are finished, can be loaded on a platform in the immediate vicinity of the place of manufacture and, when a platform is fully loaded, can be rolled over to a loading box in the warehouse. pA delivery.

Unloading place PA A suitable place by an outer wall is arranged for a loading dock, to which a fully loaded platform is rolled over on the transport path according to p.9. From there, the platform is rolled over on a truck, the platform of which was intended to be equipped with ball rollers or other rolling means, so that the transfer can take place very quickly and without the need to use any kind of lifting force. The transfer can be done with the help of a conveyor in the abacus mounted on the loading dock. Other technology can also be used, for example arranging the abacus on the loading dock and an abacus on the truck to a sloping plane, as Figures 10-11 show.

Specific components for freight platforms In order to improve the possibilities of rationally utilizing the platforms' storage and transport capacity, it is possible to have mountable components, with which special compartments adapted to load pallets of standard design are built gradually as goods are delivered. If such a pallet is fully loaded, it can then, with the help of a forklift or the like, be lifted into a suitably large lacquer. The lower row of such compartments forms a supporting base, on which a further row of loaded pallets can be placed. WHEN A PLATFORM IS FINISHED, IT CAN BE FITTED WITH A COVER WHICH TRANSFORMS THE PLATFORM TO A CONTAINER IN WHICH THE GOODS ARE STORED DURING TRANSPORT. The following is described with reference to Figures 12-15 - the devices and construction details through which a better utilization of the cargo space on the platforms can be achieved. The application example assumes that you have loading platforms with a length of c 650 cm and a width of about 200 cm, that on such a platform you will place in a lower layer 10 standard pallets (with the mat 120 x 80 cm) with a load height of up to 120 cm, and partly in a thick layer in many such pallets with a load height up to 150 cm.

The platform, which is to be used for loading pallets with goods, is removed according to figure 12 with 6 pcs. foundation rails a, mounted angle steering wheel in the long sides of the platform. Habit rail, about 200 cm long, has 6 at. projecting pillars b, for example 15 cm high, preferably with the profile shown by f: gur and with a bottom surface of eg 8 cm in the transverse direction of the platform and 4 cm in the Ang direction.

On the usual foundation rail, an eg 130 cm high stand is placed, Ae figure 14, consisting of three supporting pillars c, held together at the top by two rods d. The pillars c have a profile corresponding to the foundation pillar b, and they are mounted on the rail by sliding down Over these pillars.

The three pillars c In one of the frames, the frame mounted on the nearest foundation is connected to the corresponding foundation by three load-bearing beams, see figure 13 e. These each have an angled bracket f with a profile corresponding to the profile on each of the two openings pillar c has at the top. The bar beams are mounted by sliding each of the fittings down into one of the channels in column c.

Once you have mounted a stand on the usual foundation, you get on the platform 11) 2 x 5 compartments with space for each standard pallet loaded with goods up to a height of just over 120 cm.

Above the load-bearing beams r, which form the roof Over the 10 compartments, you can place another 10? -, standing pallets with goods. • • •• • • • • • 01 •. • ••• 0 ••• • 15. A special advantage of the arrangement described above Sr, that when you have loaded a platform with eg 2 x 10 pallets with goods, you can. lift out any hoist of the pallets without touching the other pallets, so that some relocation needs to be done.

Als • Container-1011e A collapsible housing with which you can transform a fully loaded platform into a container, with good protection for the goods, is described below, with male references to figure 16.

The cover consists of a cover, a, saint four side pieces, b, c, d and e, which are mounted against the cover a. When the cover is folded, the card side pieces b and c are folded up towards the underside of the cover a. The long side pieces d and e are folded towards the opposite side of the lid a, where they thus rest so that, for example, d lies directly on a, while e is mounted so that it can lie on top of d.

If the cover is to be used, the package is lifted so that the short side pieces b and c can be folded down to a vertical position. Then lift the cover and place it on the platform with a short side piece of fixed load on each side of the load. Then the long side pieces d and e are folded up and folded down to a vertical position where they are read notes b and d saintly towards the outer edges of the platform.

The container created in accordance with p. 16, enclosing up to 20 pallets of goods, is easily rolled over on a truck, for transport to one or more recipients of the goods.

In this case, it is entirely possible for each recipient to lift out the pallets with goods that the recipient should have, without having to lift off the container cover. It -thanks that you fold up one of the sides d or e, so you can, with the help of a forklift or the like, lift out the unwanted pallet - without the rest of the pallax having to be moved.

Fast transhipment means A fully loaded platform / container to be transported to the consignee can be rolled over on the truck very quickly, compared to the usual loading procedure, as each pallet is picked up separately from the warehouse with a forklift and lifted on board a truck or van. You can also easily arrange an opportunity to quickly move over a loaded platform / container frail a truck or the like. to a railway carriage. This for. improves the possibilities, in the short term, to carry out the Onskvarda Over-, the transfer of freight transport long distances from high-speed vehicles to the railway cars. How this can be thought to happen, I have described in more detail in a memo to the Ministry of Communications Overlamnad PM, of which a copy is attached, appendix A.

Claim 1 Patent protection is requested for a device (hereinafter referred to as a conveyor) by means of which an object with a flat bottom surface (hereinafter referred to as the platform, can be moved rolling on ball rollers or other roller means, between a bearing surface which can be raised and lowered (hereinafter referred to as the lift plane) and an adjacent The conveyor consists of a conveyor belt, mounted around motor-driven gears (bl and b2), one in each spirit of a barn, etc., which conveyor belt has a number of resilient carriers, which work against a row of stops. The conveyor has the following special pitches (see figure 5): The barn with the conveyor belt (hereinafter referred to as the conveyor barn a) is mounted in a loading-like foundation f (hereinafter referred to as the trough) with approximately the same length and width as the conveyor barn. upper edges, in this case some rectangular discs (hereinafter referred to as the guide discs e or f) with a width corresponding to the inner width of the funnel, perpendicular to the conveyor the bottom of the rladans shoots down between the cradles of the trough. Mounted between the short ends of the trough there is a star-1g, which goes through slippage or recesses in the guide discs e and f. The front of the guide discs is placed so that it has a certain distance to the front short side of the trough, when the conveyor barrel is in the middle. From this "resting position" the conveyor barn can thus, sliding on the upper edges of the trough, be moved forward to its "working position". The rearmost of the guide discs f slides in the "rest layer" down into the hopper immediately in front of its rear short side. The distance between this guide plate and the nearest guide plate corresponds to the width of a rotating wheel h, which sits on the rod g between the two discs f. The rear part of the rod here co-. When the wheel is turned clockwise and through the gear is moved forward, the wheel presses against the guide disc with the pawl to move the conveyor end forward. 409 044 • S * 0 0 * 4 040 * 00 1. • 0 • • •• • •• •• S •• 2. • • •• f 0 • •• ••• • * Oa * 09 • 0000. 000 • • • ••: :: • • • • • * 0 • • 4.0 • • 44. * 0 The conveyor is mounted in the floor of the lift immediately next to and at an angle to one side towards a load box. If a platform is to be moved from the lift to the load box or vice versa, first start an engine that turns the idler wheel h so that the conveyor load is moved in over the load box as far as necessary for the conveyor belt carrier when the belt is started to be able to work towards the end of stop under the platform. It is possible for the platform to be moved to a position completely inside the side of the load box towards the lift and completely inside the side of the lift towards the load box. The conveyor needs to be mounted lowered to the floor so deep that the conveyor barn is also partly below the floor surface of the lift or the load window. At the edge of the loading window, a compartment (figure 7e) is arranged so mated that the lower part of the conveyor barn can slide into the recess when the barn, as above, is moved over to its "working position". Claim 2 Device with height-adjustable rafters, placed according to Figures 70 and b, intended to prevent a platform from rolling over the boundary of the lift and a load box towards the lift shaft, as long as the lift is not level with the load box to which the respective From which the platform is to be moved Each raft consists (see figure 6) of a hollow pillar b, which is mounted in the floor of the load box and the elevator next to the boundary towards the elevator shaft so deep that it protrudes up to a level slightly lower than the height at which the underside of a platform is located in the elevator and the load box, respectively. In the inner vertical channel d of this column, a ledge e is formed, on which a coil spring c and f 8r are placed. A rod (hereinafter referred to as the ratchet rod a) which has a protruding ring h ("cuff") a few cm below its top, is lowered into the channel d with the cuff resting on the coil spring in such a position (hereinafter referred to as the ratchet layer) that the rod protrudes a few cm above In the lower part of the ratchet rod a rope is attached, which via a channel the lower part of the column is pulled to a fitting, which in the above-mentioned compartment figure 7e is arranged in such a way that the rope is subjected to a pull, when the conveyor bar is pushed into the compartment. This pulling of the line means that the ratchet rod is lowered so that it does not prevent the platform from passing when the conveyor then begins the work of moving the platform from the load box to the lift. For similar salt, the rafters in the lift are affected by the movement of the conveyor causing a pull-down of the track bars.

There the platform is rolled with the goods possibly after being provided with a container housing according to claim 5 - over to a vehicle with a load-bearing plane equipped with ball rollers in a frame, which is then lowered so that the platform will rest on load-bearing beams and be secured with the aid of suitable rafting means. In cases where it is desired to transport a long distance using the railway, so that highway vehicles are only used for transport between the factory and the nearest railway terminal, the terminal is equipped with a loading dock, where the platform with goods - possibly in a container housing according to claim 5 - can be rolled the road vehicle or vice versa. From this loading dock, a transport path is arranged with conveyors and ball rollers etc. to a corresponding loading dock at the place next to the railway track, where you will roll over the platform with goods to a railway carriage or vice versa. The railway wagon was also assumed to be equipped with ball rollers or the like. in the same way as the highway vehicle. 1994 -07- 0 8 Summary Devices according to this patent application have the common purpose of contributing to the best possible function of having a facility for compact parking of cars or storage of stock according to Nils Gynne's invention, Swedish patent no. 9000438-3, challenge as a building comprising a lift arranged in a central elevator shaft and a plurality of leveling planes with storage places arranged around the elevator shaft (hereinafter referred to as loading windows) to which the platforms are moved horizontally on ball rollers or the like. with the aid of conveyors containing conveyor belts with resilient carriers, which work against the stop on the underside of the platform. One of the new constructions meant that each of four conveyors placed at right angles adjacent to the cargo boxes in the elevator was challenged so that the barn (Figure 5a) with the conveyor belt was suspended movably in its longitudinal direction, so that it could be displaced after the elevator stopped. the boundary into the cargo box, after which the entire movement is effected through this single conveyor. Another detail is that the security rafters, figure 6, which must be fine, with placement according to Figs. a and b, are hoisted and lowered by a mechanic which utilizes the movement of the conveyor ladle, the needle is displaced into the loading window or in the reverse direction. The lift's four harness pillars are placed on projecting parts of the supporting beams at the short sides of the lift floor (figure 4 c) and each such part of a bar beam projects into a gutter open towards the lift shaft in one of the profiled building pillars next to the four horns of the lift shaft. As a result, the elevator and elevator shaft can be constructed with the smallest possible width. facilities intended for goods storage, the platforms are designed so that they can be equipped with mountable racks (figure 14-15) which form compartments adapted to pallets of standard type with cargo to the desired height. On the horizontal bar beams (figure 13 e) of a layer with such Varnishes, one can s - Jan goods-laden pallets placed in these Varnishes, place another one or more layers with goods-laden pallets. From the storage space, each platform with its load must be able to - on a transport path of ball rollers or the like. and with conveyors - flow is taken to a loading dock, so that it is rolled over on a truck, whose load-bearing plane has a frame with ball rollers, etc., which is then lowered so that the platform remains standing and the hold on the vehicle's load-bearing beams. If the goods are to be transported by rail, it is picked up at the loading dock by a highway trailer or the like. which transports the goods to the nearest railway terminal. There the platform is rolled with the goods Over on a loading quay, from which a transport path with rolling means and conveyors is arranged to the loading place next to the track, where the platform is rolled Over on a railway carriage, with ball rollers or the like. LI grim we, W, 1994 -07- 0 8 Before a loaded platform according to the above leaves the factory, it is possible to place a collapsible cover (figure 16) over the goods which is unfolded and placed on the platform. said that this and the envelope form a container, in which the goods are transported all the way to the final recipient. ••• a.6. •••• • Of •• ••• P.//..19 1. • • • 6 2. • • 3. • 0 • • 4. • 3 .4 A1024PI A • e OW C41 43.
