Filed:

Feb 15, 2001

Appl. No.:

09/784754

Inventors:

Klaus W. Lachmann - Algonquin IL
Antonio Belisario Duran Espinosa - Puebla, MX
Daniel Guzman Gomez - Puebla, MX

Assignee:

Eisenmann Corporation - Crystal Lake IL

International Classification:

B08B 304

US Classification:

134 76, 134 83

Abstract:

A circuit-like system which includes a lower conveyor line, an upper conveyor line and a pair of lift or transfer mechanisms at the end of each line constructed for moving a work piece. A travel and hoist mechanism and a beam assembly are provided for discontinuously moving work pieces along the lower line and raising and lowering them for treatment. A hook assembly is provided for restraining the downward movement of a work piece at a selected location when the hook assembly is in an operative position. The lift or transfer mechanism is provided which includes telescoping arms for grasping a work piece, which arms are carried by a vertically moveable carrier that is mounted in a stationary frame.

Appl. No.:

8/289634

Inventors:

Michael R. Janes - Crystal Lake IL
Klaus W. Lachmann - Crystal Lake IL

Assignee:

Eisenmann Corporation - Crystal Lake IL

International Classification:

B08B 1502

US Classification:

454 65

Abstract:

An exhaust gas system for receiving and treating exhaust gases from different processing tanks including a hood supported by a moveable crane to direct exhaust gases from a selected tank to a selected exhaust duct. Exhaust gas then flows to a treatment site. A connector system is provided to connect the duct to the hood/crane combination. A flow rate sensor and air admission damper system is provided in association with the duct to sense the flow rate in the duct, to permit the addition of ambient air to the duct, by opening the damper, and thus assure a substantially constant flow rate to the treatment site.
