Polyvalent suspension balance for assembly lines for manufactured goods, especially motor vehicles

Abstract

A polyvalent suspension balance for the assembly lines of manufactured goods, especially motor vehicles, involving at least one overhead device for coupling to an aerial conveyer drive is disclosed. The suspension balance consists of two vertical curved arms, shaped roughly like a wide-open C, each of which separately connects an overhead coupling piece to at least one lower and separate anchoring member for the substructure of the product to be assembled. The said curved arms are articulated about a more or less vertical axis which has great freedom of movement, thereby making it possible to gain easy access to all of the products during all stages of their assembly. Application is to assembly lines for relatively bulky and complex manufactured goods, especially to the production lines of motor vehicles.
