Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for limiting the length of the line for transport trolleys such as trolleys for large-scale stores, stations or air terminals, in which said trolleys are housed along at least one guide barrier.
  • the present invention aims to obtain a safe, solid and economical queue limiting device, which does not require any adaptation of the carriages, and which applies as well for carts provided with lockers as for carts which do not have them.
  • the device according to the invention is characterized in that it comprises two parallel barriers whose spacing is slightly greater than the overall width of said carriages and at least one sensor mounted at one end of one of said barriers opposite a front closing partition, said probe cooperating with a member of the carriages when they are inserted between the barriers, said probe having a stop cooperating with a member of a new carriage and arranged so as to prevent the passage of the new carriage when the probe is held in abutment on the member of the last carriage introduced when the first carriage abuts against said front closing partition.
  • the probe When the line of carriages between the barriers is full, the probe remains in contact with the last carriage introduced which cannot be pushed further forward, and prevents the entry of a new carriage.
  • the probe is constituted by one end of a lever with two arms oscillating around an axis integral with at least one of the barriers and being returned towards the member of the carriage with which it cooperates, the other end of said lever comprising a stop for said member.
  • the stop prevents passage of the member of the following carriage. If the probe is not in contact with the member of a carriage, the stop is cleared by the tilting of the lever under the effect of the restoring force.
  • the axis is horizontal and the lever is returned by gravity thanks to the difference in mass between its arms.
  • the installation comprises two parallel barriers 1, one end of which is closed by a front partition 2 and between which can be housed carriages 3 which, in the example shown, can be successively embedded in one another to reduce the space requirement. length.
  • the barriers 1 and 2 are carried by posts 4.
  • the device 5 comprises a protective casing 6, secured to the post 4, allowing passage below the handle 7 of a carriage 3.
  • the casing 6 contains a lever 8 articulated around a horizontal axis 9.
  • the lever 8 comprises an anterior branch 10, the lower face of which comprises a boss or cam 11 which comes into contact with the handle 7 of a carriage 3 during the entry of this carriage between the barriers 1.
  • the lever 8 further comprises a rear branch 12 whose lower face forms a stop 13.
  • the respective masses of the arms 10 and 12 are such that the lever 8 is normally recalled by gravity clockwise (in Figure 1).
  • the handle 7 of the last carriage 3 inserted does not cooperate with the probe 11 or else, if this handle 7 is in contact with the probe 11 it is possible to push the latter carriage 3 towards the interior by tightening the line.
  • the lever 8 is tilted by gravity in a clockwise direction and the stop 13 is erased upwards, which allows the passage of the handle 7 of an additional carriage 3.
  • the device according to the invention is particularly effective when the carriages 3 are provided with deposit systems of known type requiring complete embedding of a carriage at the end of a file to recover the deposit. Indeed, in the case of a complete queue, this recovery is not possible.
  • the device of the invention also applies to carts not equipped with deposit systems since the user (or specialized personnel) is supposed to make the effort to bring the car back between the barriers 1.
  • the probe 13 can be provided to cooperate with a part of the carriage 3 other than the handle 7, for example with a part of the chassis, a wheel yoke, a special insert on the carriage, etc.
  • the pivot axis of the lever may be vertical.
  • the probe 13 does not oppose the exit of the carriages 3 which push the probe 11 against the return force of the lever 8.
