Articulated arm transporter device to move work pieces between working stations in a press etc. has one short front arm part and one longer arm part, each with controllable drive with toothed gears

摘要

Each working station has an independent transporter for work pieces, which is formed as a multiple-part articulated arm. The transporter is mounted above the work piece movement plane on press stands or between presses. The articulated arm part (22) connected to a transverse strut (19) is shorter than the other arm part (21), and executes a pivot movement (28) mainly above the common pivot point (27). Both arm parts each have a controllable drive (23,26) with toothed gears (24).
