ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a conveyor that ensures the orientation of an item in a prone position when the item is fed onto a main conveyor. By ensuring the orientation of an item in a prone position, the invention can be used to transport luggage or equipment, such as wheeled luggage or golf bags, to an end distribution area. The conveyor provides for an in-feed section, an intermediate section and a discharge section of a conveyor. The in-feed and discharge sections both run parallel to the main support frame of the conveyor and provide a flat area to receive and discharge the material to be transported. The intermediate section extends between the receiving and delivery section and discharge section of the conveyor and has a V-shaped contour so as to tip the item being transported into a prone position.
