DEVICE FOR TRANSFERRING ARTICLES BETWEEN OPPOSITELY RUNNING CONVEYORS

摘要

The apparatus includes a first conveyor (12) driven in a first direction and a second conveyor (14) side-by-side and parallel driven in a second opposite direction. A movable transport member (28) disposed within the space (16) between the conveyors and forms a bridge (30) that extends across the space. The transport member is drivingly engaged by the conveyors so as to move between the conveyors depending on the speed differential of the conveyors.
