  • Patent number: 6408601
    Abstract: A pocket belt is continuously advanced by a drive at a variable pocket-belt speed, and a package supply feeds packages at a variable spacing one after another to a transfer station offset from the pocket belt. A feeding system has an intermediate belt extending through the transfer station from the supply to the pocket belt, and a drive for advancing the intermediate belt at an intermediate-belt speed and thereby moving the packages on the intermediate belt at the intermediate-belt speed from the supply to the pocket belt. A controller connected to the drives maintains the intermediate speed at a predetermined ratio to the pocket-belt speed as determined by the spacing between succeeding packages as they arrive at the transfer station from the supply.
