Conveying system for containers, in particular an air port luggage conveying system

摘要

The conveyor system for especially airport baggage has a first conveyor with its transporting plane higher than that of a conveyor (23) of a direction converter (1). At least one conveyor belt (5) of the converter over a part of its length has at least one thickening (11) compensating for the spacing between the transporting planes of the two conveyors in such a way that a piece of baggage lying on the thickening is movable in the outward direction of one conveyor onto the direction converter. An additional movable support element (14) keeps the baggage above the transporting plane of the second conveyor while leaving the first conveyor.
