Abstract

A curved conveyor section allows the transport of articles guided between two guide rails, the spacing (e) between the two guide rails is adjustable. At least one of the two guide rails is elastically deformable, an adjustment assembly is designed to displace and deform the elastically deformable guide rail so as to provide it with a specific curvature which depends on its position. Preferably, the adjustment assembly includes, for each guide rail ( 7 ), a deforming plate ( 9, 9 ') which is elastically deformable, and the guide rail ( 7 ) is rigidly secured to the deforming plate.
