Abstract

See full text

An apparatus and method for using same relates generally to automated conveying and sorting of items such as packages from one or more loading sites to a variety of output destinations, and more particularly relates to a conveying system which can eject packages to either side of a conveyor path onto designated output chutes, bins or subsequent conveyors under a particular means of control. This control provides a means for speeding up the sorting conveyor when there is no unloading or loading occurring. The main sorting conveyor can be sped up for more rapid loading when the time interval before discharging the next article is within a predetermined range.
