ABSTRACT:
A transport system operates to convey articles preferably through an oven before their subsequent removal. The transport system is synchronized with an article delivery system to receive and subsequently convey articles for final distribution on one or more conveyor belts. This is accomplished by drive mechanism which rotates a plurality of support bars having hooks. These hooks are used to catch articles as they are provided to the transport system and retain these articles during conveyance. An adjustable chute is used to impede the conveyance of only the articles. This causes the articles to be removed from the hooks and slide down the chute to the conveyor belt(s).
