ABSTRACT

A stabilized carrier basket trolley for a transporter system, the trolley has
two cars on the track, on a first side of a support plate and pivotable
relative thereto. A distance between the cars changes during traversal of
curves and a center of the trolley moves relative to the track towards the
inside of a curve. A carrier basket is pivotably connected on the support
plate and pivots about a pivot axis. The trolley includes a gear mechanism for
actively compensating a moment acting on the carrier basket during traversal
of curves that includes a drive wheel drivingly connected to a first gear
rotatably mounted on the support plate, and a second gear, meshing with the
first gear, non-rotatably connected to the carrier basket. The drive wheel
comes into contact with a side of the track upon movement of the center of the
trolley relative to the track.
