ABSTRACT:
An angled conveyor for document packages comprises a transition conveyor belt, having an angled direction of motion relative to the direction of feed of document packages to the transition conveyor belt, and an output conveyor belt in line with and having a direction of motion that is substantially the same as the motion of the transition conveyor belt. Conveyor belts are of the endless type having their upper surfaces disposed substantially in the same horizontal plane. The transition conveyor belt is disposed laterally adjacently to the downstream end of a feed conveyor. A post extends from the apparatus frame structure vertically upward through a gap between the upstream end of the output conveyor belt and the downstream end of the transition conveyor belt in a transversally adjustable position. The post protrudes above the upper horizontal belt surfaces by a distance that is at least equal to the thickness of document packages conveyed. Different positioning of the post establishes different orientation and location of document packages (conveyed through the angled conveyor) on the output conveyor belt.
