PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a conveying facility capable of shortening intervals of articles, and improving sorting efficiency. SOLUTION: At branch paths H, J positions, a driving roller 63 drawing in articles D acted by article lateral pushing bodies 52 to the branch paths H, J is provided. The articles D are supplied on an article supporting body 50 by bringing that close to the branch paths H, J sides. One of the article lateral pushing bodies 52 is acted on a side part and a front part in a conveying direction of the article D to be tilted to the branch paths H, J sides, and the articles D in the tilting posture is drawn in by the driving roller 63 to branch off to the branch paths H, J. Thus, as the article D is acted at the front part to be branched off, if an interval between the articles D keeps dimensions for expanding backward when the articles are pushed by the article lateral pushing bodies 52 to be tilted, contact between the articles D can be prevented. Therefore, the interval between the articles D can be narrowed, and the sorting efficiency can be improved. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
