ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an apparatus for discharging and transferring load carriers to connection conveyors (2), running transversely to a conveying path (1), by means of transporting belts (2a, bandc) which circulate parallel to one another, and transversely to the conveying path, and form a horizontal rest for the load carriers (3). In order to provide such an apparatus which, along with a low level of production outlay and straightforward functioning, operates quickly and effectively, it is proposed that at least two of the transporting belts (2aand2b) project at least into that half of the conveying path (1) which is directed toward the discharging apparatus (4), and at least one further transporting belt (2c) passes through the conveying path (1), and that the transporting belts run beneath the transporting planes of the conveying path (1) and are fitted on the carrying side, in certain sections, with bearing strips (14) which, as the transporting belts (2a, bandc) circulate, can be moved upward out of the transporting planes of the conveying path (1), the bearing strips gripping beneath a load carrier (3), which is positioned above the transporting belts, at at least three bearing points.
