<p>When a pulling force acts on an insertion joint in a conveying apparatus used for transferring an article conveyed on a main conveying path to a branch conveying path, an endless chain separates from an article support body and the joint state is disrupted. By contrast, when a collar section abuts against an outer end surface on the side of a moving member, an outward concave section inwardly separates from an inclined expanding surface and a tongue piece section can be withdrawn against the elasticity thereof. When the collar section separates from the outer end surface, the outward convex section abuts against the inclined expanding surface and the withdrawal movement of the tongue piece section against the elasticity thereof is prevented. As a result, a strong joint state can be maintained at all time, while ensuring that the endless rotary body and moving member are easily linked and disengaged.</p> |
