Abstract
A sorting installation for piece goods to be stored in warehouses in which a large number of different types of goods have to be continuously conveyed to their assigned storage place. The goods which arrive in non-sorted condition must be controlled, sorted, registered and further conveyed to their ultimate destination in the warehouse. The sorting installation includes a main conveyor, a sorting station, and a delivery conveyor which are connected with each other by intermediate tracks in such a manner that the intermediate tracks upstream and downstream of the sorting station are constructed as gravity-roller-tracks while at least one distributor constructed as gravity-roller-track and adapted to be inclined in the transporting direction is arranged between the main conveyor and the sorting station.
