Abstract: The invention provides a device for selectively diverting products sideways from a load-bearing conveying surface of a conveyor that is moving in a direction of transport, comprising a frame, an elongated diverter element having an upstream end, a downstream end and a deflecting surface there between, pivoting means for pivoting the diverter element in a reciprocal fashion about a vertical pivot axis extending on one side of the conveying surface, between a passive position, in which the diverter element extends beside the conveying surface so as to allow products to pass freely on the conveying surface, and an active position, in which the diverter element extends at least partially above the conveying surface for diverting products present on the conveying surface sideways from said conveying surface, and driving means for driving the deflecting surface with respect to a remaining part of the diverter element at least in the active position, wherein the pivoting means are arranged for translating the divert

Abstract: A conveyor system includes a plurality of end-to-end conveying modules, a main frame, a control unit, and a guide unit. The conveyor system influences spacing between successive products during transport thereof in a direction of transport between a charge end and a discharge end. Each of the conveying modules includes a frame, a plurality of parallel endless conveyor belts which pass over rotatable pulleys provided at a front side and a rear side of the conveying module, and a drive unit including a motor for driving each of the parallel endless conveyor belts of the conveying module. The conveying modules are connected to the main frame. The control unit controls the drive unit of each of the conveying modules individually. The guide units guides the conveying modules that are positioned between other of the conveying modules in a horizontal direction transverse to the direction of transport.
