ABSTRACT

An interface ( 140 ) adapted to be arranged on a first conveyor system module
( 110, 120, 130 ) and adapted to releasably interconnect with a corresponding
interface on a second conveyor system module. The interface comprises first
electric connection means ( 511 ) configured to supply power between the first
and the second conveyor system modules ( 110, 120, 130 ), second electric
connection means ( 512 ) configured to transmit control signals between the
first and the second conveyor system modules ( 110, 120, 130 ), magnetic
attachment means configured to magnetically attach the first conveyor system
module ( 110, 120, 130 ) to the second conveyor system module ( 110, 120, 130
), and mechanical alignment means configured to align the interface of the
first conveyor system module ( 110, 120, 130 ) with the corresponding
interface of the second conveyor system module ( 110, 120, 130 ).
