A system for conveying an article along a transfer path includes at least a first and a second vortex suction unit disposed in sequence in a direction of the transfer path. A conveyor is configured to support the article relative to at least one of the suction units and a main controller is configur

대표청구항 ▼

1. A method of conveying an article along a transfer path comprising: providing a conveyor and at least a first and a second vortex suction unit, the conveyor being configured to travel in a direction of the transfer path and the vortex suction units being disposed along the transfer path;controlling the vortex suction units separately so as to adhere the article to at least one of the vortex suction units or the conveyor; andconveying the article using the conveyor along the transfer path. 2. The method according to claim 1, further comprising flipping the article. 3. The method according to claim 2, wherein the flipping is performed by conveying the article to a secondary transfer path along which the article is rotated by 180° from a first position to a second position. 4. The method according to claim 2, wherein the flipping is performed by conveying the article to a curved deflector disposed along the transfer path. 5. The method according to claim 1, wherein the first vortex suction unit is disposed opposite to and facing the second vortex suction unit. 6. The method according to claim 5, further comprising operating the vortex suction units so as to transfer an additional article traveling together with the article from the first vortex suction unit to the second vortex suction unit. 7. The method according to claim 6, further comprising conveying the additional article to a secondary transfer path having a different output than the transfer path. 8. The method according to claim 6, further comprising operating the vortex suction units so as to transfer the article from the first vortex suction unit to the second vortex suction unit and conveying the additional article to a secondary transfer path having a different output than the transfer path. 9. The method according to claim 1, wherein the conveyor includes at least one belt disposed across the first vortex suction unit and at least one belt disposed across the second vortex suction unit. 10. The method according to claim 9, further comprising rotating the at least one belt disposed across the second vortex suction unit, while the article is being adhered to the second vortex suction unit, to a direction of a secondary transfer path that is different from the direction of the transfer path and has a different output than the transfer path. 11. The method according to claim 9, wherein the at least one belt disposed across the first suction unit includes a first pair of belts arranged on the first vortex suction unit, and wherein the at least one belt disposed across the second suction unit includes a second pair of belts arranged on the second vortex suction unit. 12. The method according to claim 11, further comprising operating the first pair of belts at different conveyance speeds so as to align the article. 13. The method according to claim 11, further comprising operating the first pair of belts and the second pair of belts at different conveyance speed so as to align the article. 14. The method according to claim 1, wherein the vortex suction units are disposed in sequence along the transfer path. 15. The method according to claim 14, further comprising operating the vortex suction units with an increasing or decreasing attraction force so as to provide a hanging transport of the article as it is conveyed along the transfer path. 16. The method according to claim 14, further comprising disposing at least a third and a fourth vortex suction unit in sequence along the transfer path opposite to and facing the first and the second vortex suction units, controlling the first and the second vortex suction unit as a first array and controlling the third and the fourth vortex suction unit as a second array. 17. The method according to claim 16, further comprising conveying the article together with an additional article as a double-pick and then separating the additional article traveling together with the article by operating one of the arrays with a decreasing attraction force and the other one of the arrays with an increasing attraction force as the additional article approaches the other one of the arrays. 18. The method according to claim 17, further comprising conveying the additional article to a double-pick container.
