Pan Conveyor for Bakery inclination, nor can they discliarge exceptat the end of their run in passing aroundthe sprocket wheels. Thiough a still furtherevolution, tliis carrier, from a modificationof the form of the pans, is enabled to con-vey on the horizontal run and also ascendvertically, delivering the load at the top ofits rise as it passes around the liead wheels.The pans or buckets instead of being rigidlyattached between the chains may be sus-pended from llicm l)y trunnions, thus always
Text Appearing After Image:
Shipping Conveyor maintaining their horizontal position and per-mitting them to carry their load successively,horizontally, vertically, horizontally again, orin any given path till the buckets encountersuitable mechanism for tilting and discharg-ing them at as many points as may be de-sired. Under the head of conveyors which carrytheir load come those wliich lift verticallyand are known as elevators. The most ele-mentary form consists of one or two endlessstrands of link-belt, rubber or canvas belt,to which are attaclied at intervals bucketsor cups. The lower wheels are carried in aboot into which the material to be elevatedis delivered, and in passing around thesewheels the buckets scoop up their load, throw^-ing it out upon a chute by centrifugal forceas they pass around the upper or head wheel.Friction encountered in pulling tlirough thematerial in the boot, and the speed necessaryto get the proper centrifugal effect at liietop limit the usefulness of this form of ele-vator.
