DE 10310941 A UPAB: 20041112 NOVELTY - The device for the transporting of workpieces through a sequence of processing stations has each drive unit (1) for the lift and/or opening and closing movement installed outside the area of the transporting unit and between a support rail (3) and machine body. The respective support rail is movably connected to the ends of two spaced apart bar elements (9,10,11,12) which are installed parallel one above the other. The other ends of the bar elements are movably connected to guided slides (17) which are in functional communication by one or more synchronized drive units. USE - The device is for the transporting of workpieces through a sequence of processing stations and parts stacking stations used preferably in press systems, press lines or transfer presses. ADVANTAGE - The transporting device is adaptable to varied movement processes, has a low number of mechanical components in the power flux, and allows greater adjusting movements at higher strokes per minute without greater dimensioning of the device
