Definitions

  • the present invention refers to an apparatus for transporting materials along a guided path whatever its inclination and use, in particular but not exclusively for use in the building sector.
  • the object of the present invention is to overcome the said drawbacks.
  • One of the advantages of the present invention is that it is possible to transport materials safely and at considerable heights, that the apparatus is provided with attachments for a set of accessories allowing the transport of materials of various nature, also in the horizontal plane or with very low inclinations, that the apparatus is provided with an antidrop device, that the apparatus maintains its characteristics also after prolonged service times.
  • the apparatus in question intended for transporting the materials along a guided path to be inclined through an angle ranging from 0° to 90°, is essentially made up of a guide structure 1 defined by one or more elements 11, 60 modularly associable with each other, each of which consists of two pillars 4 disposed parallel to the longitudinal development of the structure, and along which there are provided a plurality of engagement elements (3) equidistant from each other by a preset extent; and of a carriage (2) able to slide along said structure (1) and provided with motor means (8, 80) which are connected, through means (5) for the transmission of motion, to means interacting with said engagement elements (3) of the structure (1) so as to move the carriage bidirectionally along said structure (1).
  • each element 11 of the structure 1 comprises two parallel pillars formed by C-shaped section bars and whose opening defines a guide 40.
  • the openings of the two section bars 4 are disposed facing each other and inwardly of the structure 1.
  • the two pillars 4 are united by a plurality of cross-pieces 3 which make up, in the illustrated example, the said engagement elements.
  • the cross-pieces 3 have a tubular hollow shape with square cross-section and are all disposed on one side only with respect to pillars 4; this expedient bringing about several advantages.
  • the regions of the guides 40 are made accessible for sliding the carriage 2 along the two pillars 4, as will be described later on; besides, it is possible to use the lateral holes 30 of the crosspieces 3 as fixing points in order to engage the guide structure 1 or to install accessories such as pulleys, for example, for guiding the motor's power cable.
  • the elements 11 of the guide structure 1 are connected to each other by means of pairs of rigid connections (e.g. made from steel) which are able to be bolted and easily assemblable.
  • Figs. 5A and 5B Shown in Figs. 5A and 5B is an embodiment of a connection 39.
  • This has two pairs of holes 37 which define corresponding seats for bolts 38 to be inserted into as many through-holes 36, respectively, on the upper and lower end of the pillars 4 of two elements 11 to be connected.
  • numeral 38 designates the axis of the bolt, while the holes 36 are indicated in Fig. 4C.
  • the distance between the holes 37 provided on the connection 39 is equal to the sum of the distances between the holes 36 plus their distance from the respective pillar 4.
  • FIG. 6 Shown in Fig. 6 is the adjustable angle guide element 60 which allows changing the inclination by 25 ⁇ 45° between two elements 11 of the guide structure.
  • the illustrated guide element 60 which can be associated at its ends with two modular elements 11, is made up of two portions 90 and 91 able to rotate relative to each other about a pivot 69 going through connecting brackets 92 and 93 exhibited by the two portions 90 and 91. Provision is also made for a rigid rod 62 whose ends 94 have their respective fulcrum on other two brackets 95 and 96 presented by the portions 90 and 91.
  • the positioning on variable inclinations is achieved by rotating the two portions 90 and 91 about the above mentioned pivots and fixing the same portions to each other by means of an adjusting and fixing flat element 97.
  • the flat element 97 is pivoted in one end 98 thereof to the portion 90, and is provided with a plurality of holes 99 disposed spaced from each other by such an extent as to result, one at a time, in alignment with a hole 61 of portion 91 to allow fixing it at a predetermined angle by means of a bolt going through said hole 61 and one of holes 99.
  • the rod 62 is provided with a movable crosspiece 63 which, in correspondence of the various inclinations taken up, will be able to result positioned tangent to the drive chains 5, as will described later on, and to relevant teeth or notches 6. Also provided at the ends of rod 62 are two fixed crosspieces 64 and 65 which have a rectangular (not square) cross-section suited for not interfering with said notches when changing the inclinations.
  • Figs. 4D-F Shown in Figs. 4D-F is an embodiment of modular element 11' suitable for making up the base of structure 1, that is, suitable for use as a support in contact with the ground or in association with one or more bottom elements 11 connected to each other.
  • the element 11' is provided with two feet 48, each of which is hinged via a pivot 47 to a corresponding support 49.
  • Said support 49 is, in turn, hinged to the base of a pillar 4 via a pivot 45.
  • the pivot 47 is disposed orthogonally to the crosspieces 3 while the pivot 45 is parallel to them.
  • the carriage 2 consists of a frame 10 (for example, made of steel) on which a motor 8 is fixed in association with a relevant reducer 80. Also present on the frame 10 are four attachments 13 for the accessories intended to transport materials used in the building yards and for renovations, removals, and similar operations.
  • the accessories to be installed on the apparatus in question will be provided with four base pivots to be inserted into respective slots 13 and tightened by suitable spring latches, the said pivots being so shaped as to allow the accessory to be snap-fitted without requiring any operation on the latch which, instead, will shall be released bay hand for disassembling the same accessory.
  • the accessory's assembly and disassembly operations will thus be performed by a single operator.
  • the accessories will thus be differentiated according to the different types of materials.
  • a basket for heavy materials of small dimensions such as, tiles, bricks, tiling, etc.
  • platforms can be used for bulky materials, with relevant devices for blocking the load, such as slabs, boards, casings, rolls of sheeth, etc.
  • tanks and buckets will be preferred for loose, castable or powdery materials.
  • Such accessories can be turned over or rotated so as to ease loading and unloading operations.
  • the carriage 2 is provided with four wheels (20) fitted for idly pivoting into openings 40 of the guiding elements 11 mentioned above.
  • the wheels 20 slide with close fit inside the opening of the C-shaped section bar of pillars 4 thereby ensuring, as the wheels are fully protected, safety conditions for the operator.
  • the reducer 80 with orthogonal axes has on its output two driving shafts on which relevant pinions 88 are mounted; each pinion 88 is engaged in a respective chain 5; the two chains 5 are alike, loop-closed, parallel to each other, and make up the means for transmitting the motion.
  • pairs of teeth or notches 6 are provided on the outer side of said chains 5 .
  • pairs of teeth or notches 6 are spaced from each other by an extent corresponding to the width of crosspieces 3, so as to contain one crosspiece.
  • Each pair of teeth 6 is spaced from the adjacent pair by an extent corresponding to the distance between two consecutive crosspieces.
  • Each pair of teeth 6 of a chain 6 results juxtaposed to a corresponding pair of teeth 6 of the other chain 5, so that the two pairs of teeth 6 of the two chains can engage one crosspiece at the same time.
  • the motor-reducer 8, 80 drives into motion the two chains whose teeth 6, by becoming inserted in succession around the various crosspieces 3 of structure 1, move the carriage 2.
  • Each of the two chains 5 is kept in tension by a spring 9 which acts between a shoulder 58 of frame 10 of carriage 2 and a support of a shaft 57, the latter having a gear 56 mounted thereon and around which gear the chain 5 is made to run.
  • the spring 59 maintains the tension constant; otherwise it is possible to intervene manually by means of an adjustment member which includes a threaded bolt 590.
  • the carriage 2 is advantageously covered by a safety guard (not shown in the drawings) so that the various parts, especially those in motion, will result protected against falling foreign bodies such as water, sand, deposits, etc., as well as against any accidental contact with the operator's limbs.
  • the apparatus in question is also provided with automatic braking means, disposed on the carriage 2 and able to engage the structure 1 upon exceeding a predetermined speed.
  • automatic braking means designated by numeral 7 in their entirety, in conjuction with the means for the activation thereof, will be described in relation to only one side of the carriage 2, that is, as they act on one of wheels 20.
  • the braking means 77 and 730 are provided on both sides of the carriage, with braking action on both wheels of the two sides, while the means for activating said braking means are provided on one side only.
  • the said means 7 comprise a disc 79 idly rotating on a pivot 68 of an arm 73, one end of which is fixed on top of a shaft 16, thereby oscillating vertically sideway of the frame 10 of carriage 2 and in such a way that the disc 79 will intercept the crosspieces 3 of the guide structure during the carriage's travel.
  • the other end of arm 73 is provided with a slot 67, inside which a pivot 72 disposed on an appendix of a small disc 70 can slide, said small disc exhibiting a tooth 701 and a hook 71.
  • the small disc 70 is able to rotate about a pivot 702.
  • a spike 74 is hinged to the frame of the carriage, the free end of said spike interacting with the tooth 701 which projects from the profile 700 of the element 70.
  • the disc 79 In case of a carriage's excessive downward speed, possibly caused, for example, by a failure of the motor shaft, or of the relevant brake or the reducer, the disc 79, by knocking the crosspiece 3 at a higher speed, as induced by the moving masses, is made to jump higher than normal (as illustrated in Fig. 3B) so that the spring 15 is unable to timely recall the small disc 70 via the pivot 72, and the same small disc 70 is made to rotate in anticlockwise direction up to the position in which the free end of the spike 74 results beyond the tooth 701 of the small disc 70; accordingly, as illustrated in Fig.
  • Fig. 1A shows a second wedge 77.
  • the apparatus is provided with a carriage of self-propelled type which moves along the guide structure 1 without requiring additional components such as wire ropes, racks or other components.
  • the crosspieces 3 are disposed on one side with respect to the structure's profile; such solution offers various and cost-effective possibilities as far as the connection between crosspieces and additional elements of the structure, and the propping/fixing systems through the free side holes of the crosspieces, are concerned.
  • the lower portions of the base element 11' are made to pivot in the direction of the inclination of the ladder (for example, 50°) and in the direction orthogonal to the inclination (for example, 30°); this makes the guide structure 1 for a safe use thereof even on irregular grounds.
  • two wheel are provided on the base element 11' which makes the transport thereof easier.
