ABSTRACT:
A conveyor system for handling containers, particularly non-rigid bottles or jars, wherein the containers are gripped firmly but resiliently, to minimize deformation, and are conveyed, without friction or danger of marring, to a delivery zone where they can be delivered individually or in groups. The container gripping means includes holding jaws carried by complementary endless belts or chains, and inflatable pressure adjusting air bags for urging the holding jaws into engagement with the containers, holding them precisely spaced for subsequent operations and releasing them accurately on signal.
