First Conveyor (v.001)

This is the first idea of a conveyor used to move bottles. The main idea is to use a chain where some kind of pushers are used to move bottles over a flat surface.

The chain is not used as a base surface for the bottles for the difficulty of maintaining the chain as an flat orizontal base during the movement.

Bottle Conveyor (2022-01-22)

This is the evolution of the First Conveyor (v.001) idea.

This project represent the complete structure needed to sustain the chain.

The parts used in this design are all from the LEGO® 42100 Liebherr R9800 set.

Main features of this design are:

  • smooth bottle sliding surface

  • adjustable chain tensioner

  • easily reconfigurable bottle pushers

Motorized Bottle Conveyor (2022-02-06)

Second evolution of the conveyor idea.

Now a motor and relative gearing is applied to the driving sprocket wheel.

The parts used in this design still are only from the LEGO® 42100 Liebherr R9800 set.
