Abstract
Two embodiments for a harness assembling apparatus having a conveyor system including a forward conveyor line and a backward conveyor line, and a plurality of pallets each having a deck carrying a plurality of jigs for laying the harness thereon. The pallets are adapted to run successively along the forward conveyor line and then along the backward conveyor line. The apparatus has a turning and shifting device. Each shifting device is adapted to shift successive pallets from one conveyor line to the other conveyor line one by one. The turning device turns the edge of the deck located at the lower side on the one conveyor line to the upper side when located on the other conveyor line. In one embodiment, the turning and shifting devices are combined into a single unit, while in the other embodiment, the turning device is a separate unit from the shifting device.
