The invention relates to a transfer mechanism () for separating conveyed objects () out to the side from a first conveyor system () onto another conveyor system (), with a pushing unit and two parallel flexible drives () at a distance apart extending at an angle with respect to the longitudinal direction of the first conveyor system (), each of which has an endless traction means () which can be driven, and the pushing unit has oppositely lying drivers secured to the traction means () and a profiled pushing element () which is able to slide out of an initial position at the side, adjacent to a conveyor path (), into an operating position in the conveyor path (). The pushing element () extends continuously between the two flexible drives () and is mounted on the drivers so that it can be moved by means of articulated arrangements exclusively about the first axis extending perpendicular to the conveyor plane () of the conveyed objects () and about the second axis extending parallel with the transfer direction () of the transfer mechanism (). The invention further relates to a conveyor system () in which the transfer mechanism () is integrated.
