Abstract
A carriage for a rail-guided conveying system includes a carriage body, which is designed for embracing a runner rail and which includes a first and a second limb. The limbs are connected to one another by way of a transversely extending connecting section. The first limb has a first roller pair and the second limb has a second roller pair. The first and the second roller pair of the two limbs are arranged crosswise equal and offset to one another. In each case a first runner roller of the first and of the second roller pair is designed as a support roller, via which the load of the carriage can be transmitted onto the runner rail, and a second roller of the first and second roller pair is designed as a guide roller for guiding the carriage along the runner rail.
Claims15
A rail-guided suspended-conveying system, comprising a runner rail and at least one carriage with a carriage body, said carriage body being designed for embracing the runner rail and comprising a first limb and a second limb, wherein the limbs are connected to one another by a transversely extending connecting section,
- the first limb comprises a first roller pair, which is attached to an inner side of the first limb,
- the second limb comprises a second roller pair, which is attached to an inner side of the second limb,
- wherein the first and the second roller pairs of the two limbs are arranged equally and oppositely offset to one another in a crosswise manner,
- wherein
- in each case a first runner roller of the first roller pair and the second roller pair is designed as a support roller, via which a load of the carriage is transmitted onto the runner rail, wherein a running surface of the support rollers are plane or cambered, transversely to the rotation direction,
- and, in each case, a second roller of the first roller pair and the second roller pair is designed as a guide roller for guiding the carriage along the runner rail, wherein the guide rollers each comprise a guide recess, which is peripherally closed in a direction of rotation and which is surrounded on both sides by a guide flank, and wherein the runner rail forms guide bars which engage into the guide recesses in the guide rollers for guiding the carriage.
