ABSTRACT:
An extendable conveyor for conveying product having a base unit, at least two extendable units selectively nested within each other and the base unit and a conveying member supported by the base unit and any extended portions of the extendable units, each of the extendable units is supported by a cantilever support system from the next most inward extendable unit or the base unit, the cantilever support system for each extendable unit including at least one rearward support member on each extendable unit engaging the next most inward extendable unit or the base unit and at least one forward support member on the next most inward extendable unit of the base unit supporting the extendable unit, at least the rearward support members or the forward support members being laterally aligned in a vertical plane adjacent a lateral perimeter of the conveying member in order to allow a reduced range in width of the extendable units and thereby a wider conveying surface relative to the width of the base unit.
