ABSTRACT:
An article transport system employs a rail assembly and a holder rotatably mounted on a conveyor. The assembly is comprised of a series of interconnected, axially-aligned, generally cylindrical members, which are relatively free to move independently of one another. Relative movement of the holder and rail assembly causes, through frictional engagement therebetween, the uniform rotation of an article mounted on the holder; the system has particular utility for transporting decorated can shells through ultraviolet curing ovens.
