Abstract: A sortation conveyor has overlapping pusher shoes stealth profile upper surface and a “cow catcher” edge which reduces interference with mislocated packages. In a tube type sortation conveyor of one aspect of the present invention, the center of the tubes are vertically offset upwards from the center of the chain pins which allows a single pusher cap design to be used with a round tube type and a slat type sortation conveyor. In another aspect of the invention, the pusher cap has a single, common mounting surface which accepts pusher pads of different divert angles.

Abstract: A conveyor has frame sections formed from two laterally spaced apart longitudinal truss frames connected together on their ends by lateral truss frames. Sections include trussed beams which support the conveying medium. In the case of a moving conveying medium, upper and lower trussed beams are used to support the conveying run and the return run. Divert chassis are carried by one or more frame sections, secured in divert chassis tracks which allow easy installation adjustment of the divert locations. Spur conveyor supports are included which allow easy installation and adjustment of the spur conveyor locations.
