Abstract:
1. A store-transport device for elongated rod shaped elements, disposed in a transfer line for elements from a delivery device to a receiving device, having a plurality of substantially horizontal, vertical and arched conveyors, and having a variable capacity store formed with the aid of the said conveyors on two neighboring levels, having one inlet and one outlet, formed by two parallel conveyors, closed with a joint back plate which is coupled with a slide separating the store levels, equipped with a separating conveyor, so that they together perform reciprocating movements parallel to the horizontal conveyors, and its concave surface, on the store side, is constituted by a chain conveyor equipped with transverse humps, and a fullness sensor is placed near the outlet, characterized in that an upper input conveyor ( 5 ) has at the end an arched part ( 8 ) pointing upwards, and a lower output conveyor ( 7 ) has at the beginning an arched part ( 9 ) pointing downwards, so that the two conveyors ( 5 and 7 ) approach each other with the arched parts ( 8 and 9 ), but between the arched part ( 8 ) of the upper input conveyor ( 5 ) and the arched part ( 9 ) of the lower output conveyor ( 7 ) there is an in-between swing element ( 10 ), and a moving slide ( 16 ) with a separating conveyor ( 17 ) is slipped between the arched part ( 8 ) of the upper input conveyor ( 5 ) and the arched part ( 9 ) of the lower output conveyor ( 7 ), after deflecting the in-between swing element ( 10 ).
