Abstract
An overturning system is provided for a conveyor system, in particular an airport baggage conveyor system, which is suitable for transporting goods on a conveyor section. The goods can preferably be transported in the transport direction resting in a stable position on the conveyor section and, as the goods pass the conveyor section, the goods are moved into the stable position with the aid of a goods overturning unit. The goods overturning unit is divided into individual segments. The goods, which are initially in a non-stable position, are overturned into a stable position with the goods overturning unit.
