LA PRESENTE INVENTION CONCERNE UN DISPOSITIF DE TRANSFERT AUTOMATIQUE DE SUPPORTS NOTAMMENT DE SUPPORTS DE MONTAGE ETOU DE TRANSFERT DE PIECES.CE DISPOSITIF COMPORTE AU MOINS UNE PALETTE 10 CONCUE POUR PORTER LESDITS SUPPORTS, CETTE PALETTE ETANT MOTORISEE C'EST-A-DIRE COMPORTANT DES ORGANES D'ENTRAINEMENT PERMETTANT SON DEPLACEMENT COMMANDE. DES MOYENS DE TRANSFERT SONT PREVUS POUR VEHICULER LA PALETTE 10. CES MOYENS DE TRANSFERT SONT CONSTITUES PAR DES RAILS 23 SE PRESENTANT SOUS LA FORME DE TRONCONS INDEPENDANTS 20, 21, 22, ETC. DES CAPTEURS 28 ET 24 SONT ASSOCIES A CHAQUE TRONCON. UNE UNITE CENTRALE DE COMMANDE 26 EST CONNECTEE AU CAPTEUR PAR UN BOITIER ELECTRONIQUE DE COMMANDE 25.CE DISPOSITIF EST CONCU DE FACON MODULAIRE ET PERMET DE S'ADAPTER A TOUTES LES UTILISATIONS. PCT No. PCT/CH86/00098 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 16, 1987 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 16, 1987 PCT Filed Jul. 16, 1986 PCT Pub. No. WO87/00493 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 29, 1987.The present invention relates to a modular installation for controlled transport of parts or products. This installation includes at least one autonomous pallet (10) carrying a traction mechanism, preferably in the form of an electric motor-brake (14), this pallet being provided with wheels (15, 16, 30, 31) for circulation on a rail network, conveying the motor feed current and the control signals for the traction mechanism of the pallet. The pallet comprises two girders (11 and 12) and a plate (13) provided with two centering pins (21). The installation is advantageous in that it is flexible and allows an adaptation to all utilizations, especially because the pallets may be managed individually by a central data processing unit.
