Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
91 words
A transfer table comprising a network of rolls, means mounting one set of rolls for rotation about a first fixed axis, means mounting a second set of rolls for rotation about a second fixed axis angularly related to the first axis, the rolls of at least one of said sets each comprising a hub and rollers carried at the periphery of the hub for rotation in the same directions as the rolls of the other of said sets of rolls, the uppermost surfaces of said rolls lying in a common plane.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
91 words
A transfer table comprising a network of rolls, means mounting one set of rolls for rotation about a first fixed axis, means mounting a second set of rolls for rotation about a second fixed axis angularly related to the first axis, the rolls of at least one of said sets each comprising a hub and rollers carried at the periphery of the hub for rotation in the same directions as the rolls of the other of said sets of rolls, the uppermost surfaces of said rolls lying in a common plane.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
21 words
A transfer table as defined in claim 1 wherein the angularly related axes are normal to and interdigitated with each other.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
22 words
A transfer table as defined in claim 2 further including means for driving at least some of the rolls on each axis.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
23 words
A transfer table as defined in claim 3 wherein the driving means comprises independent power sources and means for selectively energizing each source.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
19 words
A transfer table as defined in claim 4 wherein the means for selectively energizing each source is manually controlled.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
39 words
A transfer table as defined in claim 1 wherein the rolls of both sets each comprise a hub and rollers about the periphery thereof for rotations in the same directions as the rolls of the other of the sets.
