Abstract: A system is provided for the transportation of products on hangers. The system is designed to have a high throughput. The system includes a series of interconnected rails, a movable train, a pusher dog assembly and a track switch. The track switch may be designed for the induction of products on hangers onto the series of interconnected rails. The pusher dog assembly may be engaged to the movable train, which may be disposed adjacent to the series of interconnected rails. The system may be configured to effectuate the movement of hangers along the series of interconnected rails through the action of the pusher dog assembly. A method for transporting products on hangers is also provided.

Abstract: A pusher dog assembly is provided for the transportation of products on hangers in a conveyer system. The pusher dog assembly may be designed to directly engage hangers on a series of interconnected rails. A system for transporting products on hangers is also provided. The system may include a series of interconnected rails, an enclosed track, a chain and a pusher dog assembly. The chain may be disposed within the enclosed track, which may, in turn, be disposed parallel to, and above, the series of interconnected rails. The pusher dog may be engaged to the chain and may be designed to directly engage hangers and push them along the series of interconnected rails.
