Abstract
Abstract A chair conveyor, specially for transferring elongated objects and/or serving machines for binding bundles of bars or sections. The conveyor has two parallel endless chains, means for imparting motion thereto and plates to interconnect the two endless chains. Spaced apart supports for the transported objects are provided which are connected to the interconnecting plates by pedestals. The chain conveyor can be associated to and loaded by a step by step conveyor whose movable beams may pass between adjacent supports in the chain conveyor.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim
159 words
In a device for transferring substantially elongated objects such as metal bars or bundles of bars, said device comprising a step-by-step conveyor having parallel sets of both stationary and movable beams, first means to impart a motion to said movable beams in a closed curved path in a plane substantially parallel to said stationary and movable beams, a chain conveyor disposed substantially at right angle to said step-by-step conveyor, said chain conveyor comprising two parallel endless chains, second means for imparting motion thereto, a plurality of plates substantially at right angles to said chains, said plates disposed for interconnecting said two endless parallel chains, a plurality of spaced apart supporting troughs for said elongated objects and pedestals disposed for connecting said troughs to said interconnecting plates, the spacing between said troughs, and the height of said pedestals being determined to permit passing of the ends of said movable beams in said step-by-step conveyor between two of said adjacent troughs.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
159 words
In a device for transferring substantially elongated objects such as metal bars or bundles of bars, said device comprising a step-by-step conveyor having parallel sets of both stationary and movable beams, first means to impart a motion to said movable beams in a closed curved path in a plane substantially parallel to said stationary and movable beams, a chain conveyor disposed substantially at right angle to said step-by-step conveyor, said chain conveyor comprising two parallel endless chains, second means for imparting motion thereto, a plurality of plates substantially at right angles to said chains, said plates disposed for interconnecting said two endless parallel chains, a plurality of spaced apart supporting troughs for said elongated objects and pedestals disposed for connecting said troughs to said interconnecting plates, the spacing between said troughs, and the height of said pedestals being determined to permit passing of the ends of said movable beams in said step-by-step conveyor between two of said adjacent troughs.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
63 words
A device according to claim 1 for servicing a binding machine for metal bars, said device comprising a first chain conveyor disposed for feeding said bars to the input of said binding machine, a second chain conveyor disposed for carrying said bars from the output of said machine, and means disposed for synchronizing the transferring speeds of said first and said second conveyor.
