ABSTRACT:
A load spacing mechanism for a load conveyor in which an actuating member is mounted on the conveyor and pivotable between an extended position and a retracted position. The actuating member is connected by linkage to a support mechanism which in one position thereof supports a stop mechanism in the raised position, thereby to stop a load on the conveyor from advancing toward the actuating mechanism. When a load is lifted from the actuating member, the linkage operates, as the actuating member moves to the extended position thereof, to move the stop support away from the stop thereby permitting the load at the stop mechanism to force the stop mechanism downwardly and pass thereover toward the actuating mechanism. All of the actuating mechanism, the stop mechanism and the support mechanism are pivotly mounted to the conveyor thereby obviating the need for toggle mechanism and enabling the foregoing load spacing mechanism to operate with either heavy or light loads without adjusting the mechanism.
