Converging Conveyors

Collision and jamming of cartons where two conveyors merge can be prevented with photoelectric timing controls.

A photoelectric timing control is positioned with the light beam across the main conveyor, just prior to the point where a tributary joins it.. A photoelectric control with a simple on/off function is positioned across the tributary at the point it joins the main conveyor.

Control relays of the two photoelectric controls are connected in parallel to the motor starter circuit of the tributary conveyor.

Each carton on the main conveyor opens the timing control relay, which is held open (through the time delay) until the carton passes through the merging area.

Each carton on the tributary conveyor opens the on/off control relay, which stays open until the carton passes through the light beam and is on the main conveyor.

When the timing relay and the on/off relay are open, the tributary conveyor stops, holding the carton in the beam until th timing relay closes.
