A roller conveyor module for a gravity-actuated roller conveyor system, comprising: a conveyor line consisting of conveyor rollers (111); a speed control mechanism (200) with a speed controller (210) moveable between an engaged position (210a) to control the speed of conveyed items (1, 2, 3, 4) and a free position (210b) with the speed of conveyed items (1, 2, 3, 4) not controlled by the speed controller (210); an actuator (120) disposed downstream from the speed control mechanism (200); the actuator (120) being moveable between a hold position (120a) and a trigger position (120b); a coupling mechanism (400) coupling the actuator (120) with the speed control mechanism (200) such that the speed controller (210) is in the engaged position (210a) when the actuator (120) is in its hold position (120a) and the speed controller is in the free position (210b) when the actuator (120) is in its trigger position (120b). |
