The present invention relates to a device for permitting adaptation of a suction pad (6) to the outer shape of products (1) to be lifted, whereby at least two brackets (13, 19) via links are pivotally connected to a carrying member (8), whereby at each bracket via links are pivotally arranged at least two supports (17, 18 and 23, 24) on which the suction pad is provided and whereby the supports are movable relative to each other. For the supports (17 and/or 23) to provide such a large degree of rotation that the suction pad (6) can adapt to products in the form of paper rolls (1) with substantially different diameters, one of the brackets (13, 19) is rotatably mounted on the carrying member (8) through a double link (11a, 11b) in order to permit a large degree of rotation between the bracket (13) and the carrying member (8) whereby one (17 and/or 23) of the supports (17, 18, 23, 24 ) is provided on each bracket (13 and/or 19) through a double link (15a, 15b and/or 21a, 21b).

Device for adaption of a suction pad to the outer shape of products to

A device is adapted for preventing damage on products (4), preferably paper-rolls, which should not be bumped into when fetched and/or delivered by a transport vehicle (1) having a hoisting unit (2) with a transfer device (3) which is moveable relative to said hoisting unit such that it is relocated and adapted to the product when pressed thereagainst by the transport vehicle, whereby the product preferably may be sucked onto a suction device forming part of the transfer device. In order to prevent damage to the edges of the product when it is fetched or delivered, the device includes a locking device (8) which, after that the transfer device (3) has adapted to the product and said product preferably is sucked onto the suction device, locks the transfer device relative to the hoisting unit (2) in order to prevent forward tilting of the transfer device and the product thereon when said product is lifted and/or transported and/or delivered.

Travelling carrier for heating elements in a paint spray booth

The present invention concerns a method and an apparatus for accelerating the drying and/or curing of filler material, primer and top-coatings in connection with touch-up work on car bodies. According to the apparatus of the invention, grinding, filling and spraying are accomplished in one and the same booth, whereupon a carrier containing infra-red heat radiators and/or heating-elements and/or nozzles is traversed over the car, whereby controlled heat-energy is supplied to the surface accelerating drying and/or curing process of the surface treatment material. For supplying sufficient heat-energy to the front and rear parts of the car, special reflectors are located in front of and behind the car for reflecting heat-radiation from the carrier. The carrier is divided into sections with controlled, separate energy-supply and ventilation-air both when heat-transfer is accomplished and when the carrier is located in a parking recess, from which ventilation-air passes via specially designed slots out into the booth. The ventilation-air is conducted along the infra-red-radiators and/or heating-elements/air nozzles in a laminar air flow towards the car. The ventilation air is ventilated out from the sides and the floor of the booth. The travel of the carrier over the car body and the energization of the heating is programmed with respect to a given body configuration and with respect to the touch-up work being done in order to minimize wasteful use of energy to otherwise heat parts which do not require to be heated.
