ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an apparatus for the essentially horizontal transport of elongate workpieces transversely to their longitudinal direction, consisting of a supporting framework with vertical legs and with horizontal guide beams which are supported by the legs and which are arranged, at a distance, parallel to the transport direction of the workpieces, of lifting carriages, the track wheels of which are movable in lateral longitudinal channels of the guide beams, but are secured against vertical movements, of a lifting device for lifting the lifting carriage over the top side of the guide beams and for lowering the lifting carriages under the top side of the guide beams, and of a flexible pulling member, of which the ends provided in the upper section of the pulling member are each connected to a lifting carriage and which is guided underneath each guide beam around a direction-changing wheel and a drive wheel in a vertical plane, the direction-changing wheel being mounted with its horizontal pivot axle in the region of one end of the guide beams, while the drive wheel is mounted with its horizontal pivot axle in the region of the other end of the guide beams.
