Conveying interval adjusting method and apparatus

A conveying interval adjusting apparatus comprising a bottom belt movable at a predetermined speed in the direction of conveying conveyed matter, and two belts each having profile members are disposed in parallel and driven alternately and independently and are disposed perpendicularly to the bottom belt, the perpendicular belt having profile members for accelerating or decelerating the conveyed matter conveyed on the bottom belt, thereby adjusting the conveying interval of the conveyed matter.

A conveying interval adjusting apparatus comprising a bottom belt movable at a predetermined speed in the direction of conveying conveyed matter, and two belts each having profile members are disposed in parallel and driven alternately and independently, are disposed perpendicularly to the bottom belt and are each driven by a pair of pulleys which are coaxial or in same axis with pair pulleys, respectively, for driving the other, the perpendicular belt having profile members for accelerating or decelerating the conveyed matter conveyed on the bottom belt, thereby adjusting the conveying interval of the conveyed matter.

A conveying interval adjusting apparatus comprising a bottom belt movable at a predetermined speed in the direction of conveying conveyed matter, and two belts each having profile members are disposed in parallel and driven alternately and independently, are disposed perpendicularly to the bottom belt and are each driven by a pair of pulleys which are coaxial in same axis with pair pulleys coupled by synchro-belts to drive motors, respectively, for driving the other, the perpendicular belt having profile members for accelerating or decelerating the conveyed matter conveyed on the bottom belt, thereby adjusting the conveying interval of the conveyed matter.

A conveying interval adjusting method for adjusting the conveying interval of conveyed matter by disposing a belt with profile members to be perpendicular to a bottom belt driven at a predetermined speed in the direction of conveying the conveyed matter, and accelerating or decelerating the conveyed matter by causing the profiles of the belt with profile members to be in contact with leading or trailing end of the conveyed matter.
