ABSTRACT:
A device for distributing and transferring articles including a plurality of branch conveyers arranged parallel to one another and disposed near the terminating end of a main conveyer which continuously transfers articles of a predetermined shape. The branch conveyers are located beneath the main conveyer at right angles to the main conveyer with the truck lines being spaced and closely adjoined to one another. An article receiving inlet faces the traversing direction of the main conveyer and is disposed before the terminating end of the traversing truck of the main conveyer and a distribution unit equipped with a traversing direction change-over member guides the articles in a direction at right angles to the traversing direction and a chute in combination with the traversing direction change-over member feeds the articles onto the traversing surface of a desired branch conveyer. The distribution unit is movable parallel to the main conveyer so that the chute can be positioned above the desired branch conveyer and the articles fed thereon.
