Abstract
A conveying system employs expandable flights for controlling the spacing of objects conveyed by a conveyor. Each flight includes a body portion comprising a pair of panels separated by an expandable linkage system. The flight is pivotally mounted to a mover of a linear transport system via a mounting portion so that the flight can be moved independently of the conveyor.
