ABSTRACT:
A control device for conveyor systems in an industrial area has a drive motor in each overhead conveyor, a drive control, and an associated sensor consisting of a transmitter aimed at the leading overhead conveyor and a receiver for the signal reflected by this overhead conveyor. The transmitter is configured to transmit a detection signal not only straight ahead, but also diagonally leftward and rightward ahead. The reflector is designed with a three dimensional reflecting surface contour, so that even with diagonal aiming toward the following overhead conveyor, the signal emitted from its transmitter is reflected at its receiver.
