A downstream assist conveyor, which transports objects on a third transport surface in the second direction of transport. The downstream assist conveyor is disposed alongside of the downstream conveyor and on one side towards the upstream conveyor. The second and the third transport surface are coplanar. Also, a method for deflecting objects using a deflection device.
