Patent

CA 2375872

The invention comprises a material handling device (8) and method for transferring material between locations. More specifically, the invention contains a device for placing material onto and/or removing material from a pallet. The device has a pedestal (12) with a working arm (50) pivotally connected thereto. The arm (50) is driven by a horizontal motion actuator (30). Connected to the arm (50) and actuator (30) is a cam follower (36) that is received in a cam track (39) on a cam track plate (38). The plate (38) can be removed and replaced with another plate with the cam tracks in a different arrangement. The actuator (30) moves the follower (36) along the track (39), resulting in movement of the working arm (50) along a pre-selected path. At the end of the arm (50) is a material holder (60) which has the ability to move vertically relative to the pedestal (12).

L'invention concerne un mécanisme de manutention de matériaux (8) et un dispositif de transfert de matériaux entre différents emplacements. Plus spécifiquement, cette invention a trait à un dispositif servant à placer des matériaux sur une palette et/ou à les retirer de cette dernière. Le dispositif comporte un socle (12) pourvu d'un bras fonctionnel (50) rattaché pivotant audit socle. Un servocommande horizontal (30) actionne ledit bras (50). Rattaché au bras (50) et au servocommande (30) se trouve un poussoir de soupape (36) qui se loge dans un guide de soupape (39) sur une plaque de guide de soupape (38). On peut enlever et remplacer cette plaque (38) par une autre, si les guides de soupape sont disposés différemment. Le servocommande (30) fait déplacer le poussoir (36) le long du guide (39), ce qui provoque le mouvement du bras fonctionnel (50) le long d'une voie présélectionnée. Un support de matériaux (60) situé à l'extrémité du bras (50) peut se déplacer verticalement par rapport au socle (12).
