Abstract
A conveyor arrangement comprises conveying elements defining a closed loop path having portions with substantially differing slopes. Driving elements are arranged to drive the conveying elements around the closed loop path. A plurality of arm elements are pivotably connected to the conveying elements. Carrier elements are pivotably connectable to the arm elements. Guiding elements are arranged in the vicinity of the closed loop path. A follower member arrangement of the arm elements comprises a first engaging element (-A) and a second engaging element. The first engaging element is forced in contact with a first section of the guiding element during a first part of the travel along the closed loop path. Similarly, the second engaging element is forced in contact with a second section of the guiding elements during a second part of the travel along the closed loop path.
