  • Patent number: 4821865
    Abstract: A delivering apparatus for selectively delivering a work conveyed from one inlet path to one of three paths. The delivering apparatus is disposed at an intersection of the inlet path and the exit paths. The delivering apparatus comprises a series of free rollers, a first stopper, and a series of chains. The series of free rollers can take upper and lower positions in a vertical direction between which an uppermost portion of the series of chains is positioned. When the series of free rollers takes the upper position and the first stopper is opened, the work is selectively conveyed out onto a first exit path which is located opposite to the inlet path. When the series of free rollers takes the lower position, however, the work is selectively conveyed out onto either a second exit path or a third exit path according to the rotational direction of the series of chains.
