Abstract: An apparatus for a pneumatic container travel system is disclosed. The pneumatic container travel system includes a tube, an air nozzle, and a scanner. The tube is configured to receive at least one container and allow the at least one container to pass through the tube. The air nozzle is connected to a pressurized air source and configured to blow pressurized air through the tube. The scanner is located along a portion of the tube and is configured to read a bar code on the at least one container.

Abstract: An apparatus for organizing containers in a centrifugal organizer apparatus is disclosed. The centrifugal organizer apparatus includes a centrifugal feeder, a tote dumper, and an exit ramp. The centrifugal feeder includes a conical diverter and an external wall adjacent to a circumference of the conical diverter. The centrifugal feeder is configured to rotate and create centrifugal force such that containers within the centrifugal feeder are directed to the external wall. The tote dumper includes at least one tote configured to release at least one container into the centrifugal feeder. The exit ramp is tangential to the external wall and is configured to allow the container under the centrifugal force to exit the centrifugal feeder.

Abstract: An apparatus for organizing containers in a linear organizer apparatus is disclosed. The linear organizer apparatus includes an input transport mechanism and a funneling transport mechanism. The input transport mechanism is configured to receive at least one container. The funneling transport mechanism includes a left conveyor belt and a right conveyor belt each having an upper end and a lower end. The lower end of the left conveyor belt is in close proximity to the lower end of the right conveyor belt, forming a v-shape configured to guide the container to an exit.
