A conveyor for transporting load carriers, having load-bearing members which are spaced apart parallel to one another on frame parts and are intended for accommodating drivable load-bearing elements which form longitudinally running load-bearing tracks for the load carriers resting on the load-bearing elements. The conveyor may include modular-construction conveying units, and each load-bearing element of at least two laterally spaced-apart load-bearing members of each conveyor unit may comprise an endlessly circulating load-bearing belt, which bears the load carriers and which is supported on load-bearing rollers mounted on the load-bearing members. The conveyor may be provided for transporting load carriers and may be suitable for conveying the load carriers both longitudinally and transversely. The conveyor may transport the load carriers with a lower level of noise, and may allow a high throughput even of large loads. The conveyor may be used cost-effectively both for production and for installation on site.

The soldering apparatus using at least one resistance heated stirrup electrode that is place onto soldering locations on a printed circuit board includes a pivotable suspension of the stirrup electrode. The pivotable suspension is such that a dislocated rotational axis of pivotable suspension lies in a plane of the working surface and extends perpendicular to a long side of the rectangular working surface of electrode and at the center thereof. The working surface of the stirrup electrode thus achieves reliable contact with parts to be soldered. Embodiments having two or four soldering stirrups, each individually pivotly suspended, are also possible.
