Method of planning a conveyor arrangement (1),the conveyor arrangement is adapted to convey an object (9) from at least one first location (F) to at least one second location (D);the method comprising the step of providing an IT planning tool (8) for usage by a user; wherein by using the IT planning tool (8), representations (83) of a plurality of conveyor components, in particular conveyor zones, are arranged in a manner to form a representation of said conveyor arrangement (1);wherein the IT planning tool (8) is adapted- to receive a user input (UI), wherein the user input defines at least one object parameter (85) of an object (9) to be conveyed by the planned conveyor arrangement (1), and- that the IT planning tool (8) is adapted to determine conveyor parameters (86) of the conveyor arrangement (1) be planned based on the defined object parameter (85).

Pallet conveyor arrangement (1), adapted to convey a pallet, comprising a first arrangement section (2), in particular a pallet conveyor (2), a second arrangement section (3), in particular a pallet loading section (3); in particular the pallet loading section (3) forms an accommodation space (32) for accommodation of an external pallet transport device in particular a pallet jack; wherein in an operating state the first arrangement section (2) and the second arrangement section (3) are arranged to each other so that a pallet can be transferred between the first arrangement section (2) and the second arrangement section (3); wherein in a standby state the first arrangement section (2) and the second arrangement section (3) are arranged to each other so that a pallet can not be transferred between the first arrangement section (2) and the second arrangement section (3), in particular the second arrangement section (3) is disassembled from the first arrangement section (2).

Curved conveyor belt (3), the curved belt is in particular suitable for a belt curve (1), in particular the belt curve is adapted to convey an object along a curved conveying direction (C) in a conveying area (11) between a first end (E1) and a second end (E2), wherein the conveying direction (C) is perpendicular to a radial direction (R); in particular the belt curve comprising: - a supporting frame (2); - a conveyor belt (3), which is arranged circumferentially on the support frame (2) and adapted to carry the object; - at least one deflection roller (4) located at each of the first end (E1) and the second end (E2), the conveyor belt (3) is deflected around the deflection roller (4); - a drive motor (4) adapted to provide a drive power for the conveyor belt (3); - a guiding (64), in particular a guide rail, adapted to guide the conveyor belt (3) in the conveying direction (C), thereby providing a guiding force in radial outward characterized by a plurality of receptables (32) within the belt body (31), the receptables (32) are adapted to be engaged by a drive sprocket (44).

Ausschleusvorrichtung (20), eingerichtet zur Übernahme eines Förderguts (9) an einem Übernahmebereich (26a) von einer vorgelagerten Förderstrecke (10a), zur zumindest zeitweisen Förderung des Förderguts (9) innerhalb eines Förderbereichs (26f) in einer Förderrichtung (FR) und insbesondere in einer Förderebene (FE), und zur selektiven Ausschleusung des Förderguts (9) in Richtung eines in Förderrichtung (FR) seitlich angeordneten Ausschleusbereichs (3), die Ausschleusvorrichtung (20) umfasst eine Mehrzahl an Gurtschlitten (21), die umlaufend entlang einer Führung (23) derart angeordnet sind, dass die Gurtschlitten (21) zumindest zeitweise, insbesondere im Förderbereich (26f), in Förderrichtung (FR) verfahren, der Gurtschlitten (21) umfasst einen Transportgurt (24), wobei der Transportgurt (24) zumindest zeitweise eine Auflagefläche (241) für das Fördergut (9) ausbildet, wobei zur selektiven seitlichen Ausschleusung des Fördergutes (9) der Transportgurt (24) in einer Querrichtung (Q) quer zur Förderrichtung (FR), insbesondere und zugleich parallel zu einer Förderebene (FE), selektiv bewegbar ist.
