PCT No. PCT/CH96/00305 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 26, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 26, 1997 PCT Filed Sep. 5, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97/09256 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 13, 1997Process and apparatus for controlling the channeling of parceled goods to be delivered via a delivery conveyor, which includes at least one buffer conveyor, a call-up conveyor, and a channeling conveyor, to free locations on an acceptance conveyor running at a constant speed. The acceptance conveyor and the delivery conveyor are arranged to encompass an angle alpha , and the delivery conveyor is provided with a parcel measuring device. The process includes measuring a length of a parcel to be channeled, determining a length of time t2 utilized in measuring the length of the parcel, and determining a momentary parcel speed; a speed of the channeling conveyor to which the parcel will be transferred; a distance on the call-up conveyor on which acceleration of the parcel occurs prior to a transfer of the parcel to the channeling conveyor; and a position of a next free space on the acceptance conveyor. The process also includes synchronizing movement of the parcel to the next free space by one of (a) accelerating and decelerating and (b) decelerating and accelerating the parcel on the call-up conveyor at a constant acceleration a, and without intermediate stopping of the call-up conveyor, transferring the parcel from the call-up conveyor to the channeling conveyor, and synchronously transferring the parcel to the next free space on the acceptance conveyor. The apparatus includes a measuring device to measure a length of a parcel to be transferred from the delivery conveyor to the acceptance conveyor, wherein the measurement of the length occurs in a time t2, a control device provided for determining a momentary speed of parcel; a speed of the channeling conveyor to which the parcel will be transferred; a distance on the call-up conveyor on which acceleration of the parcel occurs prior to a transfer to the channeling conveyor; and a position of a next empty space on the acceptance conveyor. The control device also is provided to adjust one of (a) an acceleration and deceleration and (b) a deceleration and acceleration of the parcel on the call-up conveyor, without intermediate stopping of the call-up conveyor, to synchronize the movement of the parcel to the next empty space on the acceptance conveyor.
