Conveying system for carrying containers, especially bottles, through different working stations

A conveyor for carrying containers through different work stations comprising:

• at least one stationary support element (4) that forms a support and running surface (5) for the containers (1);
• at least one dragging element (9,10), for engaging and moving the containers (1) resting on the support and running surface (5), said dragging element (9,10) being formed by an endless belt and being provided with a plurality of seats (3,19) decreasing in width towards a center of the belt;
• at least one lateral striker (7) for said containers (1), for enabling said dragging means (9,10) to engage and move said containers (1), said lateral striker (7) being formed by a bar that extends parallel to said belt, the lateral striker disposed adjacent to a longitudinal lateral edge (6) of said support and running surface (5), the lateral striker located opposite to said endless belt;
• the plurality of seats (3,19) being regularly spaced along said support and running surface (5) for receiving said containers (1);
• said endless belt (9,10) being disposed along the lateral longitudinal edge (6) of the support element (4);
• said plurality of seats (3,19) being made directly in an edge of said endless belt facing said lateral striker (7)
• said dragging element (9,10) and said lateral striker being translatable sideways, in relation to a size of said containers (1), such that said containers are centerable with respect to a median line (M) traced between said dragging element and said lateral striker, and are aligned with work stations located along the conveyor.
