Load Lifting Device (LDL)

The load lift device is a standard belt driven live roller conveyor (accumulating or nonaccumulating) mounted on a pair of hydraulic scissor lifts. The mounted conveyor includes standard components such as the belt, drive / take-up package, and liftout load carrying rollers. Low profile pressure rollers and pressure roller mounting angles are used with the standard over tiebrace belt path to achieve a 12" TOR profile without requiring a pit for the lifts. Standard structural features include a 4x2 rectangular tube tiebraces and terminal roller assemblies. 8" structural channel replaces the standard 5" sideframes to allow the conveyor to span lengths up to 20'. An edge sensor mounted to the bottom of the side frame channel detects obstructions as the conveyor moves toward the floor.

Typically, a transfer device is incorporated in the conveyor to provide side discharge to auxillary operations. This transfer device can be of the standard roller chain design or a flat top chain design with reduced load marking. Longer conveyors may include up to three independent zones for load accumulation and lateral transfer.

• Saves labor by eliminating the need to move different equipment in and out of position for unit load and bundle operations
• Heavy duty construction matches typical unit load floor conveyor
• 12" TOR lowered height is achieved with the need for floor pits for the lift devices
• Edge sensor provided along bottom edge of sideframe to detect obstructions beneath conveyor frame
• Optional transfer device mounted in the conveyor
• Flat top chain transfer device available
• Multiple zones of accumulation available using standard accumulation methods
• Special hydraulic valving maintains conveyor level at all heights
• Pivotally mounted conveyor reduces unwanted lateral loading on scissor lifts
