Apparatus () for handling articles (), including an endless infeed drive member () moving in an infeed direction (ID); an endless outfeed drive member () moving in a second, outfeed direction (OD); and an endless carrier conveyor () having. The carrier conveyor includes an infeed section () overlying the infeed drive member (), whereby the infeed drive member () drives the infeed section () in the infeed direction (ID); an outfeed section () overlying the outfeed drive member (), whereby the outfeed drive member () drives the outfeed section () in the outfeed direction (OD); and an arcuate intermediate section () bridging the infeed section () and the outfeed section () along a transfer path () between a diverting point (DIV) where the carrier conveyor () disconnects from the infeed drive member (), and an inverting point (INV) where the carrier conveyor () connects the outfeed drive member ().

Apparatus for handling and accumulating articles in a buffer area

The conveyor installation makes it possible to control the speed of items of the bottle () type dispatched in several trains distributed across various paths in the form of single-file lanes (). The lanes are delimited by a pair of walls () which are arranged in an omega shape over a base plate made up of several juxtaposed conveyors (). Each lane () may comprise a fixed wall () acting as a reference, and a moving wall () that can be adjusted according to the dimensions of the items that are to be conveyed.
