ABSTRACT:
Device for conveying a series of spaced apart articles to a processing machine, in particular these articles being formed to groups of a specific number comprising a drivable conveyor belt system with a run running essentially horizontally which can accommodate the series of articles, and which runs parallel to and at a distance from an endless chain on which a number of equally spaced drivers are mounted the drivers being movably mounted in such a way that they are placed only after passing a control element in a position projecting relative to of the conveyor belt system between articles lying thereon, which control element is fitted so that it can move to and fro over at least a portion of the run of the endless chain parallel thereto and is coupled to a first device which can give a signal for each passing or incoming article, and near the downstream end of the chain a fixed second device is present which for every passing group of articles can give a multiple "p" of these signals, so that these signals are a measure of the number of outgoing articles, and a comparison device is present, to which the signals of the first and second devices can be fed, by which device the speed of the endless chain and the position of the control element are controlled, the position being dependent on the ratio "N" between the number of incoming and the number of outgoing articles, and it being possible for "N" to vary between a value of zero and a value of at least 1.
