Device and method for the separation of goods

摘要

The device (1) has a goods conveyor belt (5) arranged in a horizontal plane to transport goods placed in a transport direction. Lateral guide elements (81, 82) are oriented obliquely to a conveying direction and constructed such that goods are placed at or adjacent to a longitudinal side of the belt and conveying speed of the goods are changed by the lateral guide elements. The goods are placed not in contact with the lateral guide element when the goods are placed at center and/or another side of the belt for enabling unchanged conveying speed. An independent claim is also included for a method for separating goods.
