Patent

CA 2407374

An article separation conveyor system includes a plurality of conveyors which are independently and/or collectively operable to destack, separate and/or align articles being conveyed along the article separation conveyor. The conveyor system includes a destacking conveyor, a side by side eliminating conveyor and/or an aligning conveyor. The destacking conveyor includes a plurality of conveying portions, which are inclined to convey articles up and then drop or guide them onto the next adjacent conveyor. The side-by-side eliminating conveyor includes a pair of diverting members and is operable to redirect articles from one side of the conveyor to the other to destack and separate articles as they are continuously conveyed along the conveyor. The aligning conveyor is operable to align articles along one side of the discharge conveyor so the articles are arranged for identification at a downstream scanning device and induction onto a sortation system.

L'invention concerne un système transporteur de séparation d'articles, qui comprend plusieurs convoyeurs conçus pour fonctionner de manière indépendante et/ou collective pour désempiler, séparer et/ou aligner des articles transportés le long du système transporteur. Ce dernier comprend un convoyeur servant à désempiler, un convoyeur côte-à-côte servant à éliminer et/ou un convoyeur servant à aligner les articles. Le premier convoyeur comprend plusieurs parties inclinées pour acheminer les articles vers le haut puis les lâcher ou les guider sur le convoyeur adjacent suivant. Le deuxième convoyeur comprend une paire d'éléments séparateurs et sert à rediriger les articles d'un côté du convoyeur à l'autre afin de désempiler et de séparer les articles tandis qu'ils sont acheminés de manière continue le long du convoyeur. Le convoyeur d'alignement sert à aligner les articles le long d'un côté du convoyeur de décharge afin que les articles soient disposés de façon à pouvoir être identifiés par un dispositif de balayage en aval et orientés sur un système de tri.
