Method of transferring products between continuously-moving conveyors

摘要

Products fed by a first conveyor at substantially constant speed along a first substantially circular path and inside respective first seats are transferred successively into respective second seats on a second conveyor by which each second seat is advanced at a speed equal to that of the first conveyor along a second path tangent to the first path; which transfer is effected by a pusher and a counterpusher cooperating respectively with the first and second conveyors, and moving both parallel and perpendicular to the respective path; the pusher moving, during transfer, both parallel and perpendicular to the second path and in time with the counterpusher.
