Abstract
A conveying and raising apparatus includes a conveying mechanism and a raising mechanism. The conveying mechanism includes a roller for conveying a first object while rotating, and a motor for rotating the roller. The raising mechanism includes a frame installed beside the roller, a plurality of pins fixed on the frame, and an actuator connected to the frame for raising a second object above the plurality of pins from a first height to a second height. The frame has an opening capable of allowing the first object to pass through.
Claims19
An apparatus for conveying and raising objects, comprising:
- a conveying mechanism comprising:
- a roller for conveying a first object while rotating;
- and
- a motor for rotating the roller;
- and
- a raising mechanism comprising:
- a frame installed adjacent the roller, the frame comprising an inverted U-shaped holder having two side spacers and an upper frame, and a base, the inverted U-shaped holder and the base forming an opening;
- a plurality of pins fixed on the upper frame of the inverted U-shaped holder of the frame;
- and
- an actuator comprising a base plate and a plurality of racks, each of the racks having a first end installed on the base plate and a second end fixed on the base of the frame for pushing up the frame to raise a second object above the plurality of pins from a first height to a second height, the racks separating the base plate from the base of the frame.
An apparatus for raising a panel, comprising:
- a frame comprising an inverted U-shaped holder having two side spacers and an upper frame, and a base, the inverted U-shaped holder and the base forming an opening capable of allowing a first panel to pass through;
- a plurality of pins fixed on the upper frame of the inverted U-shaped holder of the frame for supporting a second panel;
- and
- an actuator comprising a base plate and a plurality of racks, each of the racks having a first end installed on the base plate and a second end fixed on the base of the frame for pushing up the frame to raise the second panel above the plurality of pins from a first height to a second height, the racks separating the base plate from the base of the frame.
An apparatus for conveying and raising objects, comprising:
- a conveying mechanism for conveying a first object and a second object;
- and
- a raising mechanism comprising:
- a frame comprising two side spacers, an upper connecting frame, and a base to form an opening;
- a plurality of pins fixed on the upper connecting frame;
- and
- an actuator for raising the frame from a first position where the upper connecting frame is not above the conveying mechanism to a second position where the upper connecting frame is above the conveying mechanism such that the first object is conveyed through the opening.
