Abstract
A conveying appliance with a conveying member that is movable along a conveying stretch and forms a conveying surface for an item that is to be conveyed, wherein the conveying surface of the conveying member includes openings. An active device has at least one active element that is movable along a closed circulating path, wherein in an active section of the conveying stretch, the circulating path forms an actively effective path section that runs parallel to the conveying member. The active device interacts with the conveying member in the active section in a manner such that the at least one active element along the actively effective path section projects through an opening through the conveying member and projects beyond the conveying surface, in a manner such that the at least one active element is capable of mechanically acting upon a conveyed item which lies on the conveying surface.
