Abstract: A device and a method for transferring articles between an infeed conveyor at a first speed and an outfeed conveyor at a second speed different than the first speed include use of at least a first variable speed conveyor downstream of the infeed conveyor, and a second variable speed conveyor downstream of the first variable speed conveyor and upstream of the outfeed conveyor. The speeds of the variable speed conveyors are cycled between the first speed and the second speed without any article being conveyed by conveyors at different speeds. At least one additional variable speed conveyor may be included.

Abstract: A surface platform for a conveyor belt includes a platform member having an upper surface and a rail member at one side of the upper surface. The upper surface has a first portion adjacent the rail member, a second portion adjacent the first portion, and a third portion adjacent the second portion. The second portion extends upward at a distance and in a direction such that when an article is placed on the platform member in contact with the rail the article extends to, and no further than, the second portion. The first portion may extend at least to a center of the platform member and may be horizontal. The second portion may extend upwardly less than a height of the rail member.

Abstract: A device and method of adjusting a spacing of holders located on first and second endless loop includes releasing a clutch to allow the endless loops to be adjusted and operating an adjustment assembly to simultaneously move the first endless loop a distance in a first direction and the second endless loop an equal distance in a second direction opposite the first direction. After the adjustment the timing and pitch of the center of articles gripped by the holders is unchanged relative to the system in which the device is located.
Abstract translation: 调节位于第一和第二无端环路上的支架的间隔的装置和方法包括释放离合器以允许调整环形回路并操作调节组件以同时使第一无限循环沿第一方向移动一定距离，并且第二 在与第一方向相反的第二方向上无限循环相等的距离。 在调节之后，由夹具夹持的物品的中心的时间和间距相对于装置所在的系统不变。

Abstract: Heat shrink wrap product packaging oven or tunnel apparatus and processing methods are provided which incorporate or utilize airfoils in conjunction with hot air-providing side walls to desirably control impact of hot air onto a product wrapped with a tube of heat shrink wrap film and being conveyed on a conveyor thereby. In such heat shrink wrap product packaging apparatus and methods, such airfoils can be movable, e.g., rotatably moveable, relative to the side walls to vertically alter an air impact point onto the product.

Abstract: A device for accumulating articles within a system may include a frame, a mass-flow infeed conveyor supported by the frame for receiving articles from the system, and a mass-flow outfeed conveyor supported by the frame for receiving articles from the infeed conveyor and returning the articles to the system. A single-filing device is supported by the frame and includes a plurality of parallel endless loop conveyors. The endless loop conveyors each have an upstream end located laterally from and between upstream and downstream ends of the infeed conveyor.
