<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a reversing apparatus capable of reversing an object to be conveyed without changing the orientation of conveyance thereof, and minimizing the impact on the object to be conveyed during reversing operation. SOLUTION: An object 9 to be conveyed which is conveyed by a front-stage straight conveyor 7 is conveyed by the front-stage curved conveyor 2 along a 90-degree arc-shaped conveyance line, enters and drops into a tubular body 1 whose both ends are open and the central axis runs along the vertical surface, and which protrudes laterally in the conveying direction in a half-loop form, and its top and bottom is reversed by reversing operation. The object 9 to be conveyed is then conveyed by the rear-stage curved conveyor 3 along the 90-degree arc-shaped conveyance line, and by the rear-stage straight conveyor 8. The conveyance line of the rear-stage curved conveyor 3 is the same as the conveyance line of the front-stage curved conveyor 2 when it is turned by a 270 deg. clockwise, and the orientation of the conveyance on the rear-stage straight conveyor 8 is the same as that of the front-stage straight conveyor 7.</p> |
