Conveying arrangement
An arrangement for transferring and/or grouping products ( 32 ) is proposed, comprising at least one mover ( 20 ) which has at least one permanent magnet ( 19 ) which is connected to the mover ( 20 ), wherein the permanent magnet ( 19 ) interacts with at least one coil plane ( 18 ) of a drive surface ( 13 ) for the in particular contactless driving of the mover ( 20 ), wherein the mover ( 20 ) is arranged displaceably and/or rotatably in at least two degrees of freedom on the drive surface ( 13 ), furthermore comprising at least one conveying system ( 34, 38 ) which conveys products ( 32 ), characterized in that the mover ( 20 ) picks up or deposits at least one product ( 32 ) by means of a movement of the mover ( 20 ) with at least one vertical component.
1. A device for transferring and/or grouping products ( 32 ), comprising at least one mover ( 20 ) that comprises at least one permanent magnet ( 19 ) that cooperates with at least one coil plane ( 18 ) of a drive surface ( 13 ) so as to drive the mover ( 20 ), wherein the mover ( 20 ) is arranged in such a manner that the mover can be displaced and/or rotated on the drive surface ( 13 ) in at least two degrees of freedom, furthermore comprising at least one transporting system ( 34 , 38 ) that transports products ( 32 ), characterized in that the mover ( 20 ) receives and/or deposits at least one product ( 32 ) by moving the mover ( 20 ) with at least one vertical component while the mover ( 20 ) supports the at least one product ( 32 ) vertically above the at least one transporting system ( 34 , 38 ).
2. The device as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the drive surface ( 13 ) is arranged vertically.
3. The device as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the mover ( 20 ) receives at least one product ( 32 ) from a container ( 36 ) and/or deposits at least one product in a container ( 36 ).
4. The device as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the mover ( 20 ) deposits at least one product ( 32 ) on the transporting system ( 34 , 38 ) and/or receives at least one product from the transporting system ( 34 , 38 ).
5. The device as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the mover ( 20 ) moves at a speed similar to that of the product ( 32 ) so as to receive the product ( 32 ).
6. The device as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the mover ( 20 ) moves at a similar speed and/or a different speed to that of the container ( 36 ) or the transporting system ( 34 , 38 ) so as to deposit the product ( 32 ).
7. The device as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that multiple movers ( 20 ) are provided that receive multiple products ( 32 ) from the feeder system ( 34 ) and in each case are brought into a specific position for grouping purposes and in said position the products ( 32 ) are located in each case in a defined layer with respect to one another.
8. The device as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that multiple movers ( 20 ) deposit in each case at least one product ( 32 ) in the container ( 36 ).
9. The device as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the mover ( 20 ) grips the product ( 32 ) and changes the orientation of said product.
10. The device as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the mover ( 20 ) comprises at least one handling device ( 30 ) for receiving at least one product ( 32 ).
11. The device as claimed in claim 10 , characterized in that the handling device ( 30 ) comprises at least one gripper and/or at least one opening for applying a negative pressure to the product ( 32 ).
12. The device as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that at least two movers ( 20 ) are provided that cooperate so as to receive at least one product ( 32 ).
13. The device as claimed in claim 1 characterized in that at least one transporting system ( 38 ) is provided for transporting at least one container ( 36 ).
14. The device as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the drive surface ( 13 ) is arranged above a plane of the transporting system ( 34 , 38 ).
15. The device as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the at least one mover ( 20 ) receives and/or deposits at least two products ( 32 ).
16. The device as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the permanent magnet ( 19 ) cooperates with the coil plane ( 18 ) of the drive surface ( 13 ) so as to drive the mover ( 20 ) in a contactless manner.
17. The device as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that multiple movers ( 20 ) deposit in each case at least one product ( 32 ) in the container ( 36 ) simultaneously.
18. The device as claimed in claim 10 , characterized in that the handling device ( 30 ) comprises at least one gripper and/or at least one opening for applying a vacuum to the product ( 32 ).
19. The device as claimed in claim 1 , characterized in that the drive surface ( 13 ) is arranged above a plane of the transporting system ( 34 , 38 ), in a transverse manner with respect to the transporting direction of the transporting system ( 34 , 38 ).
