ABSTRACT:
An apparatus is disclosed for ordering randomly positioned eggs travelling upon a conveyor into rows. The positioning device includes a plurality of vertically disposed spring abutment members, disposed above the conveyor to contact the eggs as they pass by. The spring abutment members are pivotally mounted for oscillating rotation about an axis perpendicular to the direction of conveyance. The positioning device further includes moving vertical walls, comprising endless belts driven about vertically disposed rollers, whose movement will stop responsive to lateral pressure on the walls caused by egg jams.
