Abstract: 1413970 Transferring between conveyers SIG SCHWEIZERISCHE INDUSTRIE-GESELLSCHAFT 17 July 1974 [18 July 1973] 31577/74 Heading B8A Articles 1 are transferred from an input conveyer to an output conveyer 4 by pushers 16 travelling in a closed path and each having a pushing edge 27 for pushing a group of articles and a retaining edge 26 which forms a stop against which articles on the input conveyer collect for transfer by the succeeding pusher, the velocity component of the pusher in the direction of conveyance increasing during transfer. The pushers 16 are rotatably mounted on a rotary plate 12 and are rotated in a direction opposite to that of the plate 12 so as to maintain a constant disposition. The input conveyer comprises an endless belt whilst the output conveyer comprises pushers 6 carried by an endless chain 5. A movable guide 32, adjacent the input conveyer, is advanced during the formation of a group against a retaining edge 26 so as to prevent lateral displacement of the group, but is retracted prior to transfer. The speed of the input conveyer is varied with the above-mentioned velocity component.

Plates are made from water-containing fibrous blanks by cold-pressing the blanks in a stack to drain the pressed-out water and heating the pressed blanks to dry them. Blanks 1 are sandwiched between members 2 which consist each of two metal sheets 3 spaced apart by metal strips 4 of zig-zag or wave formation to increase stiffness and to prolong the path along which hot gas or other heating medium flows. The sheets 3 are slotted at 5, Fig. 4, to allow water vapour to escape from the blanks 1 as they are dried, the slots 5 also facilitate welding up the members 2. Parallel supports 6 and 7 are welded to the top and bottom sheets 3 of the top and bottom members 2, respectively, of the stack and overhang the ends of the stack. The stack is first placed in a press and the water squeezed out and when the stack is compressed links 8 are slid over the ends of the supports 6 and 7 to hold the stack compressed, Fig. 5. The stack is then transported on a carriage 15 into a drying chamber 11 provided with an inlet 12 and an outlet 13 for hot gas, a cap 14 being fitted to ensure that all the hot gas flows through the passages.
