Mini Conveyor Using Geneva Mechanism: Components

This document proposes a mini conveyor belt system that uses a geneva mechanism to move products at regular time intervals for automation. A motorized disc drives a geneva wheel which is connected to rollers and a conveyor belt, converting the continuous rotation of the disc into fixed step rotation that moves the belt periodically. The system demonstrates using a geneva mechanism to create a compact conveyor with regular motion suitable for automation applications.

Mini Conveyor using Geneva Mechanism

The geneva mechanism is a system to convert continuous circular motion into


fixed step circular motion. Geneva mechanism requires a rising circular connector
extending above the rotating disc to lock between slots in the geneva wheel and
drive it. So here we propose a conveyer belt that moves products at regular time
intervals, as needed by many automation lines. Our system uses a motorized disc to
drive the geneva wheel. The geneva wheel is thus driven at regular time intervals.
The wheel is connected to rollers mounted with conveyer belt. As the wheel rotates
the belt also rotates at fixed intervals. Thus we demonstrate the design and
fabrication of a mini conveyer belt based system using geneva mechanism.
