An accumulating conveyor of the kind which is adapted to feed articles thereon towards the downstream end thereof to replace any removed therefrom comprising longitudinally extending laterally spaced conveying surfaces adapted to support articles which are to be fed towards the downstream end of the conveyor, and an endless conveying band is disposed between the conveying surfaces. A selected portion of the band is adapted to be moved from a lowered position to a raised position wherein it engages the underside of articles bridging the conveying surfaces to progress them towards the downstream end of the conveyor to replace any removed therefrom. |
