A buffer conveyor for conveying and buffering products comprises a first elongated conveyor (7) and a second elongated conveyor (8) that can be driven in an opposite direction. The first and the second conveyor extend in a path at least substantially parallel to each other and beside each other. A transfer unit (11) is movable at least substantially parallel to the first and the second conveyor in the aforesaid path and is provided with a transfer device (17) for transferring the products from the first conveyor to the second conveyor. The transfer unit comprises a drive unit for moving the transfer unit, preferably in dependence on the velocities of the first and the second conveyor. The drive unit of the transfer unit comprises a drive motor (12), which follows the movements of the transfer unit at least in part. |
