The invention relates to a conveying device for producing energy, comprising a circulating conveying member (10) of containers (11), which have a load strand and a return strand, the conveying device being equipped in such a way that the conveying device slides or rolls downward by means of the load strand on a inclined plane having an angle (alpha), wherein the load strand moves the return strand, and a device for drawing power (5) arranged on the conveying member and being moved by the circulating conveying member (10), said device comprising a means (3) for removing energy from the device (5). The method for operating the device is characterized in that, while the conveying member (10) is circulating, the first container (11) running into the load strand (in the area of arrow A) is loaded with a burdening good and said good is discharged shortly before exiting the load strand (at arrow B). Said good can be liquid or a solid bulk material. The angle of the inclined plane, the length of the load strand, the filling degree of the containers, or the combination of two or all three possibilities can be selected depending on the power demand.

Abstract

A drive has a driving unit (14), wherein the driving unit (14) comprises a central body (1), a driving means (6), and a driven means (5) revolving around the central body (1). Conveyor means or objects to be conveyed can be conveyed in a driven region (19) of the driving unit (14) along a conveyor path (17) by way of the driven means (5). The driven means (5) is supported by means of a roller body (2) revolving around the central body (1) in an orbit (7) with respect to the central body (1). To this end, the driven means (5) rolls on the central body (1) via rollers (3) of the roller body (2) and thereby the roller body (2) transmits radial pressure forces to the central body (1). The driven means (5) is driven directly by the driving means (6). The roller body (2) as such is not only driven directly by the driving means (6), it is also moved by the rolling motion of the driven means (5) on the roller body (2).

Abstract

The invention relates to a conveying system which comprises at least one conveying unit (10) that is guided inside the guide channel and can be moved along it, and a drive unit (30) for driving at least one conveying unit (10). The conveying unit (10) comprises a series of several links which, when viewed in the axial direction, have a first articulated element (1) at their first end and a second articulated element at their second end, respectively. The first and second articulated elements (1) are formed in a mutually corresponding manner and, as a result, the conveying unit (10) is provided for transmitting thrust forces. The drive unit comprises at least one rolling body (35) consisting of a plurality of rollers (31), wherein said rollers (31) can be conveyed in a circular trajectory (34) by a roller drive (36), whereby the rollers (31) or the driving elements which are moved along by the rollers (31) engage at the links (5) of a conveying unit (10), thereby driving the conveying unit (10).
