ABSTRACT:
A gravity conveyor chute section (10) includes a door/ledge assembly (20), having a ledge (30) which is hingedly attached to a sidewall (12) of the chute section below a side opening (16) into the chute section and first and second side supports (56, 58), which extend from side edges (32, 34) of the ledge to the chute sidewall beyond side edges (36, 38) of a front panel (18). The ledge can be moved to a laterally-extending position for forming a ledge below the side opening and to a closed position for closing the side opening. When the ledge is moved to the closed position, the side supports move along side panels (22, 24) of the sidewall beyond the first and second side edges of the front panel. A door (68) is hingedly mounted on the ledge for being selectively rotated to the laterally-extending position with the ledge and to a closed position with or without the ledge.
