Tapering of a conveyor flow of piece goods

A conveyor line arrangement for tapering a conveyor flow of piece goods, comprising:

• a first section and a second section adjoining the first section in a conveyor direction;
• wherein the conveyor line arrangement is configured to convey the conveyor flow on the first section divided into at least a first partial conveyor flow and a second partial conveyor flow and to generate a difference in height between the first partial conveyor flow and the second partial conveyor flow such that the first partial conveyor flow is arranged higher than the second partial conveyor flow at the end of the first section;
• wherein the second section is configured to take over piece goods from the first partial conveyor flow and the second partial conveyor flow of the first section, and the conveyor line arrangement is configured to feed the first partial conveyor flow to the second partial conveyor flow by transferring piece goods from the first partial conveyor flow to piece goods of the second partial conveyor flow on the second section;
• wherein the first section and/or the second section comprises a passive partial conveyor section on which the first partial conveyor flow can be conveyed, the conveyor line arrangement configured to convey piece goods of the first partial conveyor flow via a positive and/or frictional locking with conveyed piece goods of the second partial conveyor flow;
• wherein a first conveyor surface on which the first partial conveyor flow is conveyed is arranged at an angle in the transverse direction to the conveyor direction to a second conveyor surface on which the second partial conveyor flow is conveyed;
• and
• wherein the first section and/or the second section comprises an active and/or a gravity-based partial conveyor section on which the second partial conveyor flow can be conveyed.
