An article container for an overhead conveying device for transporting an article includes a bag body adjustable between a transport position and a loading and/or unloading position. The body includes front and rear walls of flexible material, a loading and/or unloading opening on a first body side at least in regions between the front and rear walls, a side wall stop against which the article is placeable formed on a second body side at least in some regions between the front and rear walls. The front wall forms first and second front wall sections and includes a base plate in the first front wall section. The rear wall includes first and second rear wall sections. The first rear wall section forms a transport rest sloping in the side wall stop direction when the bag body is in the transport position. Moreover, an unloading station automatically unloads an article container.

Conveyed-goods container for an overhead conveyor, and unloading station for unloading same

The invention relates to an overhead conveyor system () with hanging bags (), which are adjustable between a transport position and a loading position and which are designed for transporting articles (), with a loading station (), at which a hanging bag () can be loaded with an article (), and with an overhead conveying device () for transporting a hanging bag () into the loading station () and for transporting the hanging bag () out of the loading station (). The overhead conveyor system () further comprises a measuring device (), by means of which an expansion (a) of the bag body () in a transport direction of the loaded hanging bag () is determined in the transport position of the bag body (). Moreover, the invention relates to a method for operating such an overhead conveyor system ().

The invention relates to an unloading station () for automated unloading of an article container (), which comprises an overhead conveying device () for transporting the article container () into the unloading station and for transporting the article container out of the unloading station, an opening and closing device () for adjusting a bag body between the closed position and the opened position and an unloading device () for unloading the bag body. The unloading device comprises an actuation device (), by means of which the article container with the bag body can be tilted about a tilting axis () extending essentially in parallel to the longitudinal extension of the overhead conveying device between a provisioning position () and an unloading position (), wherein in the unloading position an article () can be discharged from the article container through the unloading opening (). Moreover, the invention relates to a method for the automated unloading of an article container.

An article container for an overhead conveying device for transporting an article includes front and rear walls, a bottom adjoining the front and rear walls, and a storage space between the front and rear walls and the bottom, in which the article is transportable. The bottom forms a first longitudinal edge, which adjoins the front wall, a second longitudinal edge, which adjoins the rear wall, spaced from the first longitudinal edge, a first end edge extending between the first and second longitudinal edges, and a second end edge extending between the first and second longitudinal edges. The article container includes a loading and/or unloading opening delimited by the front wall and rear wall and adjoining the first end edge and a side wall stop adjoining the second end edge, against which the article can be applied in a transport position.

The invention relates to a conveying roller (), wherein a first end of a shaft () in the part protruding from a roller body () has a shoulder () between a first section located on the roller side () having a larger first cross-section and a second section () located opposite therefrom having a smaller second cross-section. Finally, the invention also relates to an assembly () comprising a pivot bearing () and a conveying roller () of said type, and a conveyor system for the oblique and straight mounting of conveying rollers ().

Disclosed is a method for addressing/sequencing at least one control component () of a group comprising multiple control components () of a conveying system (), said components being linearly interlinked via a daisy-chain selection line (). The addressing process starts at any point in the chain and continues to the end of the respective branch of said chain. Subsequently, in one of the two branches the numbering of the control components () is reversed. Also disclosed is a conveying system () on which said method can be carried out.

Disclosed is a conveyor roller () which comprises a shaft (), a roller body () which is mounted such that it can be rotated about the shaft (), and a protective cap (). The protective cap () has a disk-shaped first section () for covering the interior of the roller body (), which is arranged fixedly with respect to the shaft () and is oriented normally with respect thereto, and a channel-like or roof-like second section () which is arranged obliquely with respect to the shaft () and runs over a part length of the roller body () such that it is spaced apart radially from the latter. Furthermore, a conveyor system () with a conveyor roller () is disclosed, in which conveyor system a connecting cable () of the conveyor roller () is run in a curve or a loop to an electrical interface () with a connector box () of the conveyor system (), wherein the lowest point of the curve/the loop is located below said interface ().

Conveyor roller and conveyor system with moisture protection

The invention relates to a conveyor system (), comprising two frame profiles () which are run such that they are spaced apart from one another, a plurality of motorized conveyor rollers () which are arranged in between, an insulator () which runs along the at least one frame profile () with a plurality of receptacles which are open on the longitudinal side, and a plurality of electric conductors () which are arranged in the insulator () and are electrically connected to drive electronics of the conveyor rollers (), and in each case one electric conductor () is mounted in each case in one receptacle. The form factor f of an electric conductor (), which is defined as a quotient of the circumference of a circle which is equivalent in area to the cross section of the electric conductor () and of the circumference of said cross section of the electric conductor (), is selected in the range of from f=0.88 to f=1.00.
