ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for distributing in single file and for spacing objects moving on a conveyor belt, including two vertically staggered chains. The chains are driven about pinioned shafts having axes perpendicular to the conveyor belt and each is provided with removable symmetrical fingers parallel to and overlying the belt. The fingers are spaced at predetermined distances on the chain, in accordance with the diameter of the objects. The fingers engage the object to, in effect, accelerate or slow down the object's motion to provide predetermined spacing between objects. The fingers engage the objects at points in a plane parallel to the direction of motion of the conveyor belt, whereby the stability of the object is maintained.
