ABSTRACT:
Apparatus is provided for loading poultry from a rearing house into a series of hen-coops arranged in vertical rows on a transport vehicle. The apparatus includes an elevator conveyor which takes the animals from an assembly enclosure to a vehicle movable transversely of the elevator conveyor. This vehicle comprises a first horizontal conveyor extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle and arranged to receive animals from the elevator conveyor, an adjustable-inclination conveyor disposed alongside the first horizontal conveyor, a second horizontal conveyor disposed transversely to the first horizontal conveyor and arranged to transfer animals from that conveyor onto the adjustable-inclination conveyor, and a pneumatic forced-delivery unit located transversely at the output end of the adjustable inclination conveyor.
