A dip treatment system for treating articles, in particular for treating vehicle bodies, includes a dip treatment tank, which can be filled with a treatment liquid, into which articles to be treated can be fully or partially dipped. A conveying system defines a conveying path and includes at least one transport carriage, which can be displaced along the conveying path in a transport direction and includes a fastening device, to which at least one article can be fastened. The conveying system can convey the articles to be treated towards the dip treatment tank, fully or partially into the interior of the dip treatment tank, out of the dip treatment tank and away therefrom. The conveying path of the conveying system is divided into sub-paths, of which at least one first sub-path leads to the dip treatment tank or to an immersion region of the dip treatment tank and of which a second sub-path passes by said dip treatment tank or immersion region of said dip treatment tank. The invention further includes a method for the dip treatment of articles.

Dip treatment system and method for the dip treatment of articles, in particular vehicle bodies

A device for controlling the temperature of workpieces, in particular for drying vehicle bodies, having a housing, a temperature-controlling tunnel accommodated in the housing, and a temperature-controlling system for controlling the temperature of workpieces. The temperature-controlling system includes a full-space temperature-controlling device which can control the temperature of a workpiece as a whole, and a local temperature-controlling device which can control the temperature of locally delimited regions of the workpiece and which comprises multiple temperature-controlling units that can be activated and actuated independently of one another for this purpose. The full-space temperature-controlling device and the local temperature-controlling device are provided in the temperature-controlling tunnel such that a workpiece at least within an active section in the temperature-controlling tunnel can be under the influence of both the full-space temperature-controlling device as well as the local temperature-controlling device. A system and a method for controlling the temperature of workpieces are additionally provided.

Device, system, and method for controlling the temperature of workpieces

An area storage for storing vehicle bodies, the longitudinal extension of which equals at least one and a half times the transverse extension thereof, having a storage area having at least two storage spaces and two associated vehicle body receptacles, wherein the storage area is designed such that vehicle bodies can be stored on the storage area in a plane on the at least two storage spaces on one of the vehicle body receptacles in each case, at least one multi-track industrial vehicle, which can be coupled to the vehicle body receptacle. The industrial vehicle is designed for omnidirectional travel, such that the direction of conveyance can be chosen independently of the orientation of the industrial vehicle and the industrial vehicle having the coupled vehicle body receptacle can carry out a conveyance direction change without changing the relative orientation of the vehicle body receptacle and industrial vehicle. A method for conveying vehicle body receptacles is also disclosed.

Area storage and method for conveying vehicle bodies or vehicle body receptacles

A conveying method, wherein a conveying vehicle conveys an electrically driven motor vehicle during assembly thereof. In this method, the conveying vehicle uses energy which is stored in a traction battery of the motor vehicle. For this purpose, the conveying vehicle has an electrical interface which is connected to the traction battery of the motor vehicle, and a converter. This lowers an electrical voltage provided by the traction battery via the electrical interface to a value suitable for the conveying vehicle. The energy drawn by the traction battery can be used above all for the particular drive of the conveying vehicle and/or for other electrical loads of the conveying vehicle. As a result, an on-board battery for the conveying vehicle can have much smaller dimensions or can even be omitted completely.

Method and vehicle for conveying an electrically driven motor vehicle during assembly thereof

A method for operating a conveyor system for objects, in which a conveyor apparatus is present at an operating site and is operated with a plurality of conveyor carts each having at least one fastening device for at least one object. The number of conveyor carts available at the operating site for operating the conveyor apparatus for a process sequence defines an actual number; the number of conveyor carts needed at the operating site to operate the conveyor apparatus for the process sequence defines a target number. The difference between the actual number and the target number defines a required number if the actual number is less than the target number, or defines an excess number if the actual number is greater than the target number. A conveyor cart pool is provided and comprises a stock number of conveyor carts, at least some of which are stored at a pool site which differs from the operating site of the conveyor apparatus. A number of conveyor carts corresponding to the required number is physically transferred from the conveyor cart pool to the operating site, as a result of which the actual number is increased by the required number and the stock number is reduced by the required number, or a number of conveyor carts corresponding to the excess number is assigned to the conveyor cart pool, as a result of which the actual number is reduced by the excess number and the stock number is increased by the excess number.

Method for operating a conveyor system

An immersion treatment installation, which includes at least one immersion tank in a way known per se. A conveying system brings the items to be treated up to the immersion tank, into the space inside the immersion tank, out of it and away from it. The conveying system includes at least one transporting carriage, which has a carrying platform, which is pivotable about a pivot axis and to which at least one item can be fastened with the aid of a connecting structure. This connecting structure is movable on its own to such an extent that, with increasing pivoting from the unimmersed position, the distance between the item and the pivot axis becomes increasingly greater under the influence of gravitational force.
