Packaging cushion delivery system

摘要

A system for conveying a string of packaging cushions (11) includes a machine (10) capable of manufacturing the string and a transport conveyor (20) adapted to transport the string. The transport conveyor (20) comprises two or more conveyor sections (120,122,124,126). At least one of the transport sections is adapted to be moveable between a conveyor-section open position to create an intermediate outlet (23), and a conveyor-section closed position in which the intermediate outlet (23) is closed. A rotating member (35) is adapted to cooperate with the transport conveyor (20) to propel the string of cushions (11) from the machine (10) to the transport conveyor inlet end and between the rotating member and the transport conveyor.
