Abstract
Method and device to regulate the spacing and speed of objects being conveyed randomly. Objects such as nuclear fuel pellets (P) are stopped by a stop (12) placed in the extension of a conveyor (10). When the presence of at least one pellet is detected against the stop (12), a cyclic rotary device (26) thrusts said pellet laterally onto a sliding rail (24), between two separating components (22) supported by an endless belt (20). The belt (20) then moves forward by an interval equal to the spacing between two consecutive separating components (22). This ensures a feed of the pellets according to a controlled spacing and speed.
