Abstract (en)

[origin: US6398016B1] A conveyor device comprising a guiding rail for guiding at least one transport mechanism. A ferromagnetic guide, including a magnet, is fixed to the guiding rail. An article carrying part is detachably connected to the transport mechanism through a magnetic circuit that flows through two spaced apart ferromagnetic guide parts carried by the transport mechanism. The ferromagnetic guide and the ferromagnetic guide parts are located relative to each other such that there is an air gap there between through which the magnetic circuit flows to create an attractive force, Fm, holding the article carrying part on the transport mechanism.
