Piece-spacing transfer mechanism

摘要

A disk carrying bell cranks in circumferentially spaced relationship is located at the side of a supply conveyor opposite a discharge conveyor and the attitude of the bell cranks is controlled by cam followers carried by the bell cranks engaging a stationary cam for the purpose of moving bell crank arms to poke pieces moved in abutment by the supply conveyor onto the discharge conveyor for movement by it in uniformly spaced relationship.
