Abstract: A conveyor 10 includes a cyclically powered drive mechanism 24 for moving products along an elongate tray 12 in a forward direction. The tray 12 includes a substantially planar floor 14 for supporting product thereon and tray side 16, 18 on opposing transverse sides of the tray floor. A flow leveler 40, 54, 80, 90 is positioned along the tray floor and normalizes the flow of product moving along the tray. In its preferred embodiment, the flow leveler includes a plurality of elongate ramp members 82, 92 laterally spaced between the tray sides, and optionally arranged in staggered rows. The flow leveler may include a planar leveler floor 48 for positioning within a cutout in the tray floor and a plurality of securing members 42 for movably securing the leveler floor to the tray. The inclined ramp surface of the leveler is preferably angled up to 25° to 45°. The flow leveler is particularly well suited for leveling the flow rate of irregularly shaped snack goods conveyed along the linear motion conveyor.
