The present invention relates to an apparatus for discharging goods such as stacked-up boards of corrugated board, cardboard, pasteboard or plywood, or pallets loaded with such goods, from a conveyor means such that said goods or pallet may be immediately transferred onto a pallet or a transporter such as a forklift which is waiting at a location close to the discharge end of said conveyor means. The discharging apparatus essentially comprises a platform which is movable up and down, means for lifting said movable platform up and down, a goods support secured to said movable platform such that said support can extend out from said platform, means mounted on said movable platform for moving said goods support forward or backward, and a conveyor means arranged such that said goods support can be raised up from the goods carrying surface of the conveyor means with an upward or downward movement of said movable platform and that said goods support can also extend out from said conveyor means at the same time as it extends out from said movable platform. |
