ABSTRACT:
A conveyor system with an improved roller transfer assembly is provided for transferring articles from the end of a first conveyor to the start of a second, in-line conveyor. A conveying surface is formed by a plurality of rollers that span substantially the entire space across the transfer zone. The conveyor transfer assembly includes a plurality of shafts extending transversely across the zone, a mounting block at each end for supporting the shafts, which blocks are secured within a holding pan. The support for the assembly includes a pair of tabs on each end of the pan that cooperate with a respective pair of open notches on a pair of frame plates. In turn, the plates are secured at the ends of the transfer zone to the frame of the conveyor system. A pair of angular slots in the plates allows adjustment of the transfer assembly to allow movement of the articles from one level on the first conveyor to a second level on the second conveyor.
