ABSTRACT:
A device for removing or sending an article from a conveyor of a transport system to and from work stations located therealong comprising platforms capable of being raised or lowered so that an article being carried by the conveyor can be taken out of physical contact with the conveyor at various work station locations. Once the article has been raised out of contact with the central conveyor, a closed loop belt driven by a fluid actuated cylinder causes the article to be conveyed onto or away from the central conveyor.
