Abstract: Apparatuses, systems, and methods of manufacturing are described that provide a drop link and associated conveying system for item transport. An example conveying system includes a telescopic side guide that includes one or more sections and a plurality of drop links each supported by respective sections. Each drop link includes an extension mechanism that movably attaches the drop link to the section. Each extension mechanism allows translation of the drop link relative the respective section of the telescopic side guide between a retracted position and an extended position in which a portion of the drop link extends at least partially beyond an outer edge of the respective section of the telescopic side guide.

Abstract: The invention relates to a vertical diverter for a conveyor system having a lower conveyor track and an upper conveyor track, wherein the vertical diverter is provided and designed for vertically connecting the two conveyor tracks, and the vertical diverter has a lower diverter track and an upper diverter track.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method which comprises determining first geometry information of a first object stream of a plurality of objects, which are transported on a first conveyor. The method also comprises determining second geometry information of a second object stream of a plurality of objects which are transported on a second conveyor. The first conveyor is configured to transport objects at a first speed, and the second conveyor is configured to transport objects at a second speed. The first conveyor and the second conveyor are arranged in such a way that the objects which are transported by the first conveyor move onto the second conveyor. The method also comprises adjusting the first speed of the first conveyor and/or adjusting the second speed of the second conveyor on the basis of the determined first geometry information and/or the determined second geometry information.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and to a device for the singulation of packages, especially for the singulation of parcels. The invention is based on the assumption that the parcels are initially present as a bulk flow. The packages are transported in the form of a package flow on fifteen different transport means at different transport speeds, whereby the transport direction is deflected at least once by approximately 90°.
