Abstract
To increase the degree of automation in the manufacture of profiles, a tray for the interim storage, the handling and the transport of profiles is proposed, comprising: a frame, and at least two carriers which are secured parallel to one another on the frame, in order to retain and/or mount respective profiles on the carriers, wherein a stop is provided, said stop being provided at one end of the carriers in the longitudinal extent thereof and/or at one end of the frame, in order to be used as a reference point for the position of the profiles. Moreover, corresponding magazines and a transport device and a processing device are proposed.
Claims12
tray for the interim storage, the handling and the transport of profiles, the tray comprising:
- a frame;
- at least two carriers which ate secured parallel to one another on the frame, in order to retain and/or mount respective profiles on the carriers, wherein each carrier, of the at least two carriers, is designed as an L-shaped angle profile, wherein one limb of the L-shape angle profile is configured for securing to the frame, and one limb of the L-shape angle profile has latching grooves for latching engagement of profile lamellae of the profiles for retaining the profiles;
- and
- a stop, being provided at one end of the carriers in a longitudinal extent thereof and/or at one end of the frame, in order to be used as a reference point for a position of the profiles.
A magazine for the interim storage and/or the transport of profiles, the magazine comprising:
- at least two trays arranged in a stack, wherein each tray, of the at least two trays, comprises:
- a frame;
- at least two carriers which axe secured parallel to one another on the frame, in order to retain and/or mount respective profiles on the carriers, wherein each carrier, of the at least two carriers, is designed as an L-shaped angle profile, wherein one limb of the L-shape angle profile is configured for securing to the frame, and one limb of the L-shape angle profile has latching grooves for latching engagement of profile lamellae of the profiles for retaining the profiles;
- and
- a stop, being provided at one end of the carriers in a longitudinal extent thereof and/or at one end of the frame, in order to be used as a reference point for a position of the profiles.
A transport device for the transport of profiles, the transport device comprising:
- a conveyor belt;
- and
- at least one tray comprising:
- a frame:
- at least two carriers which are secured parallel to one another on the frame, in order to retain and/or mount respective profiles on the carriers, wherein each carrier, of the at least two carriers, is designed as an L-shaped angle profile, wherein one limb of the L-shape angle profile is configured for securing to the frame, and one limb of the L-shape angle profile has latching grooves for latching engagement of profile lamellae of the profiles for retaining the profiles;
- and
- a stop, being provided at one end of the carriers in a longitudinal extent thereof and/or at one end of the frame, in order to be used as a reference point for a position of the profiles;
- and
- wherein the conveyor belt has a driver device which is provided for engagement in a toothing of the at least one tray.
A processing device for the processing of profiles, the processing device comprising:
- a transport device;
- a processing station;
- and
- a loading device configured to load the processing, station with profiles from a tray from a conveyor belt and, after processing the profiles, to load the tray with the processed profiles back on the conveyor belt, wherein the tray comprises:
- a frame;
- at least two carriers which are secured parallel to one another on the frame, in order to retain and/or mount respective profiles on the carriers, wherein each carrier, of the at least two carriers, is designed as an L-shaped angle profile, wherein one limb of the L-shape angle profile is configured for securing to the frame, and one limb of the L-shape angle profile has latching grooves for latching engagement of profile lamellae of the profiles for retaining the profiles;
- and
- a stop, being provided at one end of the carriers in a longitudinal extent thereof and/or at one end of the frame, in order to be used as a reference point for a position of the profiles.
