<p>A flat, flexible shoe upper component, e.g. a pair of interconnected quarters, is conveyed on edge from the discharge end of a tandem sewing machine system and a cutting and discharge apparatus, both mounted on a single table, by a conveyor including a pair of roller brushes, which effect intermittent feed of the component to a rotary brush opposed and driven by an endless link belt, the rotary brush being followed by a rail which also opposes the belt for conveying the component around a rear corner of the table and along one side thereof to the front end of the table and sewing machine system where the operator can view the components. Alternatively, the shoe upper component is fed from the roller brushes to an endless V-belt opposing the link belt for conveying the component around the rear corner of the table and along such one side thereof to the front end of the table.</p> |
