Abstract
A method and device for conveying packages supplied from at least one supply unit, via a transfer unit, to a switch unit formed by a conveyor, pivotable about a horizontal axis and in which the packages are carried to a first discharge conveyor in a first position of the switch unit and to a second discharge conveyor arranged above the first discharge conveyor in a second position of the switch unit. The method and device detect the size and the identity of the packages, and control the transport of the packages by the supply unit and/or the transfer unit influenced by the detecting of the size of the packages. The spacing between packages delivered to the switch unit that are carried to the same discharge conveyor is smaller than the spacing between packages delivered to the switch unit that are carried to a second discharge conveyor.
