Abstract
A cover for an article conveyor or accumulator having a table-like support surface includes a substantially planar and transparent member mounted above the support surface. The distance between the cover and the support surface is adjusted to be slightly greater than the height of the articles being carried on the conveyor or accumulator. The cover maintains the articles in their upright position by preventing them from tipping over.
