ABSTRACT:
An anti-runout device adapted to be mounted below the running surface or pass line of an inclined lane, gravity feed package conveyor and upstream from a package release mechanism at the discharge end of the conveyor is described. The device acts as a brake means to slow or stop the packages and includes a brake shoe mounted on a lifter means. The lifter means is moveably supported in a guide means for linear movement of the brake shoe and the lifter means. The shoe and the lifter means are mounted such that the shoe can move well above the running surface of the inclined lane to reach and to lift a package which can be moving rapidly enough to be substantially above and thus out of contact with the running surface of the conveyor.
