Abstract
A conveyor installation for the displacement of components along an assembly line, which includes a series of consecutive work stations, comprises a pair of horizontal translator bars which extend laterally along the assembly line and are reciprocally movable, and a series of spaced support units carried by the bars and movable relative thereto, and thus relative to the work stations of the assembly line, between a lowered position and a raised position. Actuator means are provided to control the simultaneous displacement of the supports between a lowered position and a raised position to permit respectively the setting down of the components at the stations and the transfer of these components, on completion of the operations, to the consecutive stations in the assembly line, by means of the translator bars.
