Crossbelt Sorter

Crossbelt sorter (1), adapted to sort an object (9) into one of a plurality of discharge stations (14);

• the crossbelt sorter (1) comprising a plurality of crossbelt carts (11);
• the crossbelt carts (11) are movable along a conveying direction (R) on a circumferentially closed conveying track (13);
• in particular the crossbelt carts are driven by means of a stationary cart drive (8), the stationary cart (8) drive in particular comprising a stationary drive motor and a traction (82),
• each of the crossbelt carts (11) comprising a crossbelt (12);
• wherein the crossbelt (12) provides a conveying surface for supporting an object (9) to be conveyed;
• the crossbelt (12) is moveable relative to the crossbelt cart (11) in a traverse direction (Q) traverse to the conveying direction (R);
• the crossbelt sorter (1) is adapted upon to transfer said object (9) from the conveying cart (11) selectively into one of the plurality of discharge stations (14) by selectively driving said crossbelt (12) in the traverse direction (Q) upon triggering;
• wherein for driving said crossbelt (12) of said crossbelt cart (11) has a drive wheel (42) which is adapted to engage with a friction bar (41);
• said friction bar (41) is stationary located along the track (13);
• characterized in
• that the crossbelt sorter (1) is adapted to vary a trigger position, where the transfer of said object (9) is triggered, within the range of a friction bar (41),
