  • Such conveyor chains vary considerably in terms of their limb size or in terms of their pitch and maximum tensile strength.
  • the conveyor chains adapted in each case in their dimensions can be used by a parallel arrangement of at least two conveyor chains for the construction of so-called transport or conveyor belts.
  • special closure or connecting members may be provided to connect the ends of the respective chain together and to be able to build a self-contained, annular chain can.
  • These special closure or connecting members may comprise cotter pins in order to enable a tool-free activation and deactivation of the specially designed, usually only once existing link.
  • rivet or welding members in which, after appropriate riveting or welding of the respective parts separation is basically no longer provided, or only with the aid of cutting or grinding tools is possible.
  • the CH 36850 A describes a transmission chain with bayonet-like articulated hinges.
  • the corresponding chain in this case comprises a plurality of completely identical, serially hung chain links.
  • Each individual chain link can be released from the transmission chain without the aid of tools, or a chain link can be inserted into the transmission chain at any time without the need for auxiliary tools.
  • Each of these elongated chain links has a first end, on which a semicircular joint head is formed. At the opposite, second end, the chain links on a mouth or fork-shaped end portion. In such a mouth or fork-shaped end portion of a joint head of a serially connected chain link is directly inserted, whereby a mutual positive connection can be established.
  • a positive joining and separating serially successive chain links is only possible when taking a right angled position between see immediately consecutive chain links.
  • the serially consecutive chain links are secured with respect to a separation and positively coupled with each other.
  • the semicircular hinge heads engage in the corresponding, fork-like end portions of a serially connected structurally identical chain link.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a conveyor chain for conveying conveyed available, which conveyor chain has improved practicality, in particular offers the simplest possible variability of the chain length and thereby has the highest possible robustness.

  • the first tensile strand and the second tensile strand each comprise a plurality of tab elements arranged next to one another in the longitudinal direction of the conveyor chain.
  • Immediately successive tab members of the first tension cord and immediately successive tab members of the second tension cord are each connected by means of a common coupling element articulated.
  • Such a coupling element is designed structurally different compared to a tab element or designed structurally independent.
  • the coupling elements each have a first joint axis and a second joint axis or define the coupling elements respectively a first and a second joint axis, wherein the first and the second joint axis are arranged with respect to each other with respect to the longitudinal direction of the conveyor chain.
  • the first articulation axis is provided for articulated coupling with a first pair of tab members, while the second articulation axis is provided for articulated coupling with a second, serially connected pair of tab members.
  • axially acting holding means in particular in the form of limiting or Abgleitommeen for the coupled thereto or couplable tab elements .
  • a holding means which can be designed as a simple holding nose or as a finger-like holding extension,

  • a coupled tab element or a pair of coupled tab elements relative to the coupling element - and vice versa - mechanically decoupled, especially from the coupling element detachable and removable, without the need for special tools or other tools would be required. Due to the construction according to the invention a particularly practical conveyor chain is created. In particular, the specified conveyor chain, despite its manual Zerleg- and Zusam- availability, which can be done without the aid of tools, a high mechanical robustness or stability. In addition, the specified conveyor chain has a high security against unwanted dissolution or dissection.
  • the serial arrangement of two-axis coupling elements which respectively support a pair of link elements coupled or coupled thereto at their two joint axes, virtually excludes the possibility of undesired cancellation of the corresponding joint connections. This is ensured, inter alia, by the joint axes of the coupling element which are distanced from one another in the longitudinal direction of the conveyor chain. In particular, when the conveyor chain is in use and is claimed to train, unwanted decoupling can not or hardly occur.
  • Another advantage is that by a serial juxtaposition or coupling of pairs of tab elements with the interposed, quasi double-articulated coupling elements and conveyor chains can be created, which can be adapted in a simple manner to the particular desired or required length , Thus, despite a mechanically relatively simple construction, a high degree of robustness, but also a practicable maintenance or packaging of a conveyor chain designed according to the invention is made possible.
  • the specified conveyor chain allows, for example, a very simple and rapid shortening of the chain length, for example after reaching a certain elongation due to a long service life or high stress on the conveyor chain.
  • the desired chain tension can be restored relatively easily by removing at least a portion from the conveyor chain.
  • Mechanical clamping device for adjusting the Chain tension of a conveying device can thus be constructed comparatively simply or have a relatively short tensioning path.
  • the tab elements of the first tension cord and of the second tension cord are structurally identical, in particular designed as identical parts.
  • a chain with the desired chain length can thus be constructed without problems, in particular quickly and without a compulsory requirement of auxiliary tools, with only two differently designed components, in particular with coupling elements and tab elements.
  • Such chain systems thus allow a rapid construction and easy maintenance of existing conveyor systems or transport systems. In particular, this service and maintenance can be significantly simplified and accelerated.
  • the coupling elements of the conveyor chain each have a central base body with four pivot pins projecting therefrom, a first pair of opposing hinge pins defining the first hinge axis and a second pair of opposing hinge pins defining the second hinge axis.
  • the joint axes are spaced apart from one another with respect to the longitudinal direction of the conveyor chain and, as a result, maintenance of the tension in the conveyor chain reliably prevents unwanted disassembly or disassembly of the conveyor chain.
  • Another advantage is the execution of pins or pin-like projections on the coupling elements for defining the joint axes, since such pin-like projections production technology can be relatively easily implemented and intuitive recognition of the function and operation is ensured, whereby the assembly of a corresponding conveyor chain without special enrollment - or instruction measures can be carried out.
  • the first and the second joint axis run parallel to one another. This makes it possible to guide the conveyor chain to a rotatably mounted deflection pulley or to a sprocket or can thereby be carried out with the conveyor chain also bends or deflections. Another advantage is that tensile stresses between successive chain links of the conveyor chain exactly at right angles to the each coupling joint axes run.
  • the first and the second joint axis of the coupling elements are mutually rigidly positioned or immovable relative to each other in their relative position.
  • the pivot pins are integrally formed on the base body, so that one-piece coupling elements are formed.

  • the formation of pivot pin has, inter alia, manufacturing technology see advantages. In contrast to breakthroughs or storage bushes, such pivot pins can be produced relatively easily and inexpensively.
  • the planned functionality of the coupling elements or of its pivot pin is intuitively recognizable. In addition, this can also make it unnecessary to design structurally independent or separate joint bolts. In particular, the variety of parts can thereby be kept low and the most cost-effective possible construction of the conveyor chain can be achieved.
  • the retaining means are formed by retaining extensions or retaining lugs formed on the cantilevered ends of the pivot pins and extending radially relative to the respective pivot axis, which retaining projections act as axial deflection safeguards against the tab elements articulated on the respective pivot pins.
  • the simplest possible structure of the holding extensions or the coupling elements can be achieved.
  • an axial slipping or unwanted stripping of the tab elements away from the central base body of a coupling element can be prevented or restrained in a simple manner.
  • These holding projections can act as axially acting holders or limiting stops for a lug element rotatably mounted on the respective pivot pin.
  • only a single, radially extending to the respective joint axis retaining extension is formed at the free-projecting ends of the joint pin, wherein the holding extensions on the hinge pin of the first joint axis extend in a first radial direction and the holding extensions on the pivot pin of the second joint axis in a second radial direction.
  • a particular advantage of this measure is that thereby directly successive coupling elements support and support the interposed tab elements as best as possible.
  • an undesirable tilting of the tab elements of the first tension cord about its longitudinal center axis and an undesirable tilting of the tab elements of the second tension cord around its longitudinal center axis is thereby counteracted in a practicable manner.
  • this ensures that a first pair of, for example, upwardly extending holding extensions counteracts a V-shaped tilting of a pair of tab elements, while a second pair of downwardly extending holding extensions on an immediately adjoining coupling element of an A-shaped embossing or spreading of a Counteracts pair of tab elements.

  • the partially circular openings in the tab elements can be made particularly simple and thus relatively inexpensive.
  • the mutually corresponding cropping sections and holding extensions can be used in a simple manner for intermeshing and locking as required between a joint pin or its holding extension and a tab element. In particular, this provides a shape or contour correspondence similar to the key and keyhole principle.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une chaîne de transport (1) pour le transport de produits à transporter sous forme unitaire ou sous forme coulante. Cette chaîne de transport (1) comprend un premier tronçon de traction (4) et un deuxième tronçon de traction (5), les tronçons de traction (4, 5) s'étendant parallèlement l'un à l'autre. Des éléments de pattes (10) immédiatement successifs du premier tronçon de traction (4) et des éléments de pattes (11) immédiatement successifs du deuxième tronçon de traction (5) sont connectés de manière articulée au moyen d'éléments d'accouplement (9) disposés entre eux. Les éléments d'accouplement (9) présentent dans chaque chaque cas un premier axe d'articulation (13) et un deuxième axe d'articulation (14), les axes d'articulation (13, 14) étant disposés à distance l'un de l'autre dans la direction longitudinale de la chaîne de transport (1). Le premier axe d'articulation (13) est pourvu d'une première paire d'éléments de pattes (10, 11) pour l'accouplement articulé et le deuxième axe d'articulation (14) est pourvu d'une deuxième paire d'éléments de pattes (10, 11) s'y raccordant en série, pour l'accouplement articulé. Un élément de patte (10, 11) qui est coudé dans une position angulaire d'articulation par rapport à l'élément d'accouplement (9), peut dans ce cas être désaccouplé ou détaché mécaniquement de l'élément d'accouplement (9).
