Abstract
A powered accumulating conveyor apparaus is disclosed which may be pneumatically controlled to define a plurality of conveying stations therein. Each of the conveying stations or zones being separately operable to be in the conveying mode responsive to the simultaneous receiving of a pilot signal from the immediate downstream conveyor therefrom and to receiving a loaded signal. A drive configuration is included having a drive belt selectively engageable with respect to driven rollers separated from one another by idling rollers. The drive belt is maintained in contact with the driven rollers and can be removed from contact to halt driving thereof by rotation of a cam-like brake member in such a manner as to force an abutment edge in contact with the driven rollers to cease movement thereof and to remove contact of the drive belt therewith.
