ABSTRACT:
A centrifugal rotary loader apparatus for a multiple tray conveyor includes a plurality of similar spirally-shaped, conical supporting surfaces, each having a radially extending pickup vane.
Each supporting surface includes an inner loading cone angle of 30.degree. and an outer angle of 20.degree. for a retail merchandise warehousing system.
An outer encircling guide wall has a discharge opening with a vertical trailing edge and an inclined leading edge. The load moves outwardly as a result of centrifugal forces through the opening.
The rotary loader is loaded perpendicular to the direction of rotation and the tray conveyor is located beneath the loader with the center line of the trays aligned with the periphery of the loader.
