Abstract
An apparatus for positioning, handling and conveying structural parts for a surface finishing of the parts comprises frames arranged successively in a conveying direction, hooks carried by the frames for hanging the structural parts, and devices for maintaining successive ones of the frames in the conveying direction so close to each other that the structural parts hanging on the hooks are locked in position by the successive frames.
Claims28
An apparatus for positioning, handling and conveying structural parts in a conveying direction for surface finishing the structural parts, which comprises successively arranged frames, each frame comprising
- (a) two lateral blocks,
- (b) two lateral braces,
- (c) a transverse shaft connecting free ends of the lateral braces remote from the lateral blocks,
- (d) hooks for hanging the structural parts, the hooks being affixed to the transverse shaft and spaced from each other in a transverse direction, and
- (e) means for detachably lashing successive ones of the frames to each other in the conveying direction whereby the frames are so close to each other that the structural parts hanging on the hooks are locked in position by the transverse shafts of the successive frames.
