Definitions

  • the invention relates to a switch for a slide rail, in particular for a tube track provided with a load-bearing plastic pad or plastic insert, along which sliders or hooks can be moved for transporting loads, in particular animal halves, pieces of meat and the like, with a pivotably mounted support member for a straight line and a curved track section and an actuating arrangement for pivoting the support member between a first and a second operating position, wherein in the first operating position the straight track section with the continuous track and in the second operating position the curved track section with the branch track running at a predeterminable angle to the continuous track is coupled.
  • a switch of this type is known from DE-PS 29 08 369.
  • the two track sections are arranged on the opposite sides of a flat support member which can be pivoted about an axis parallel to the straight track section by 180 ° between the two possible switch positions.
  • a switch for a slide track with a pivotable from one track to another track piece for connecting one of these two tracks to a third track is known, the track piece being pivotable about a joint arranged on the track of the third track is, the joint parts are designed so that they create a virtually uninterrupted connection between the rail piece and the rail in any pivot position.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to design a switch of the type defined at the outset in a manner which is particularly economical to manufacture, easy to assemble and adjust, and at the same time to ensure high operational reliability with ease of use.
  • the carrier member is designed as a double bracket part which engages under the same plane and adjacent web sections, which is mounted on a vertical axis and can be raised and lowered as well as by means of the actuating arrangement in the direction of the vertical axis this axis is pivotable, and that the ends of the respective connecting tracks of both tracks can be coupled to the track sections in a form-fitting and load-bearing manner.
  • the double bracket part preferably consists of a cast body, in particular of aluminum or spheroidal cast iron, which results in considerable weight savings and, above all, greater accuracy, which brings about a significant functional improvement compared to known switches.
  • the bracket parts carrying the web sections are essentially C-shaped, the vertical axis assigned to the double bracket part being located above the rectilinear web section and being at least substantially aligned with the center line thereof.
  • the curved path section is arranged symmetrically with respect to the pivot and lifting axis, but the straight path section has unequal partial lengths with respect to this axis.
  • one of the track section parts located on both sides of the axis is considerably shorter than the other track section part, which makes it possible to arrange switches very successively and to provide a branch every 500 mm, for example.
  • the double bracket part carries locking elements for the tracks interrupted due to the respective switch position, and these locking elements can be molded directly onto the cast body or screwed to the cast body in the form of separate parts.
  • the locking elements are designed or shaped so that they form stops from the moment of pivoting of the double bracket part until it engages again in a new switch position in the region of the ends of the webs arriving at the switch, which prevent hooks or hooks hanging pieces of meat and the like can slide off the slideways and possibly fall to the ground, endangering people. In other words, this means that the locking elements only release the various tracks when the switch is in the correct position in one of its two predefined end positions.
  • the double bracket part is expediently mounted on a guide sleeve on the vertical axis fixed in a support frame stored, and this support frame has fixing receptacles for the free ends of the tracks to be optionally connected.
  • a switch actuating lever is articulated on the guide sleeve itself, which rests on a support fixed to the supporting frame at a distance from the articulation point. Due to the manufacture of the switch as a compact unit of high accuracy and the provision of precisely positioned connection receptacles for the tracks leading to the switch, the desired high level of operational reliability is ensured with simple assembly and minimal adjustment work.
  • the switch according to the invention is also particularly suitable for pipe runs with load-bearing plastic supports or plastic inserts, any lubrication of the slide track is omitted, which has a particularly advantageous effect with regard to the hygiene required.
  • FIG. 1 shows the switch arrangement in a first position, in which mutually aligned connecting tracks 1, 2 are connected to one another via a straight track section 4 of the switch, so that a continuous, straight track is available.
  • a branch track 3 which in the exemplary embodiment shown is perpendicular to the continuous track, can be connected to the connecting track 1 via a curved track section 5 if the switch arrangement is reversed.
  • the rectilinear path section 4 and the curved path section 5 - as shown in particular in the sectional view according to FIG. 2 - are fastened to a double bracket part 6 which engages underneath them, which is supported by a sleeve part 8 on a vertical axis 7 and by means of an actuating lever 9 on this vertical axis Axis 7 shifted, or raised and lowered and can also be pivoted about this axis 7.
  • the entire switch arrangement is combined into a unit by means of a support frame 11, so that the relative positions of the interacting components are clearly specified and no complex and complicated adjustment processes are required when assembling the switch arrangement.
  • the lifting and lowering of the double bracket part 6 is achieved in a simple manner in that the actuating lever 9 - as again shown in FIG. 2 - rests on a support 10 fixed to the supporting frame and thus by operating the free end of this lever 9 due to the selected lever ratios with little effort fast and problem-free switchover can be carried out.
  • the double bracket part 6, which preferably consists of a cast body, in particular of aluminum or spheroidal cast iron, enables the web sections 4, 5 to be positioned very precisely.
  • the two bracket parts 12, 13 preferably have supports 18 which are adapted to the shape of the web sections 4, 5, which are formed on the free leg parts of the substantially C-shaped bracket parts 12, 13.
  • the direct fixation of the web sections 4, 5 on the bracket parts 12, 13 can by Screwing or also by welding, the respective type of fastening also depends on the choice of material for the double bracket part 6.
  • the supports 18 are symmetrical with respect to the vertical axis 7 and ensure optimal support of the respective web section in its active position.
  • the ends of the track sections 4, 5 and the associated ends of the connecting tracks 1, 2, 3 each have an oblique cut 15, which results in problem-free transitions on each track, which ensure unhindered sliding of the hooks.
  • These support elements 14 not only ensure an absolutely flat transition between the connecting tracks 1, 2, 3 and the track sections 4, 5, which also tends not to drop in the event of a load, but in the case of switch changeover they also form guide members which during the lowering of the double bracket part 6 Take over the centering function.
  • the double bracket part 6 also carries locking elements 16, 17, which ensure that arriving on the tracks interrupted by the respective switch position, hooks on which pieces of meat and the like hang cannot fall to the ground.
  • These locking elements 16, 17 are designed and dimensioned such that a part of the locking element forming part of the locking element both during the switch changeover process and after the changeover in the region of the end of a broken track blow for any incoming hook.
  • 1 and 2 show, for example, that the locking element 17 connected to the bracket part 13 is located in the region of the end of the track 3 and is designed such that in the event of the switch being changed, this locking element 17 continues its blocking function until the curved track section 5 comes into coupling position and thus the risk of hooks falling off is eliminated.
  • the locking element 17 'fulfills the function that the element 17 has with respect to the track section 3, with respect to the track section 2.
  • the locking element 16 or an element arranged symmetrically and not shown in the drawing unfolds its blocking function in an analogous manner during the switch changeover.
  • the locking elements 16, 17 can be formed directly on the double bracket part 6, but it is - as shown in the drawing - also possible to screw these locking elements to the double bracket part, which has the advantage that, depending on the type of switch, only those in the respective Special case required locking elements must be attached.
  • the switch described allows the advantages of a problem-free and absolutely unproblematic installation with high precision, operational safety and ease of use to be combined and also makes it possible to provide branches closely adjacent due to their compactness, which is also important in practice.
