PURPOSE:To send cargos out one by one from a gravity-roller conveyor, free- flow conveyor or the like, at the downstream end of which the cargos are so collected that the preceding and succeeding cargos are put in contact with each other, by using a pusher. CONSTITUTION:When a reciprocating body 11 is moved forth by a cylinder unit 16, a second stopper 9 is pushed up by a cam surface 23 and a first stopper 3 is pushed down by a cam surface 20 against a compressed coiled spring 8. As a result, the empty bucket 2 in the foremost position A is allowed to move forward and the other empty bucket 2 in the second foremost position B is lifted to set up a pusher 17. When the reciprocating body 11 is moved forth further, the empty bucket 2 in the foremost position is sent out onto a shuttle conveyor 25 by the pusher 17 set up. After that, the reciprocating body 11 is moved back to its original position. |
