Abstract
A conveyor arrangement with a first mobile conveyor, which includes a first conveying track adapted to convey an object, and a drive module adapted to change its position within an area of operation. The first conveying track is fixed to the drive module so that changing the position of the drive module leads to a similar change of the first conveying track. By operation of the drive module, a first mobile conveyor is transferred between a handover state, and a separated state in relation to a second conveying track of a second conveyor. During the handover state, the first conveying track is in alignment with the second conveying track; and during the separated state the first conveying track is not in alignment with the second conveying track so that the object cannot be transferred between the first conveyor and the second conveying track.
