First, as shown in FIG. 1, a fixed position where the pallet (d) conveyed by the pallet conveyor (a) is to be moved onto the pallet conveyor (b) arranged in parallel with the pallet conveyor (a). Is stopped at. At this point, the pallet transfer conveyor (c) is held in the state of descending to the left as shown in FIG. At this point, when the pallet (d) reaches the fixed position, the air actuator
(14) is operated to change the state of the pallet transfer conveyor (c) to the right-downward state as shown in FIG. By this operation, the pallet (d) placed on the pallet conveyor (a) is scooped up by the belt conveyors (1) and (1) of the pallet transfer conveyor (c).
Retained on (1), (1). When the motor (9) drives the belt conveyors (1) and (1) in the direction of arrow (e), the belt conveyor (1) and the pallet (d) mounted on (1) are also indicated by arrow (e). It moves in the direction and is stopped by the fixed receiver (19) at the position (d ').

Here, the air actuator (14) is activated again, and the pallet transfer conveyor (c) is returned to the left-downward state as shown in FIG. 3 so that the pallet (d) is returned to the belt conveyors (1) and (1) again. It rides on top and moves in the direction of arrow (e) by the movement of the belt conveyors (1) and (1) to reach the position (d ″) on the pallet conveyor (b) and stop. The belt conveying surface on the pivot shaft (11) becomes a turning point of the belt inclined surface.In this state, the air actuator (14) is activated again to move the pallet transfer conveyor (c) to the fourth position.
As shown in the figure, by switching to the state of descending to the right, the pallet (d) at the position (d ″) is placed on the pallet conveyor (b), and from the pallet conveyor (a) to the pallet conveyor (b). The move to is completed.This 4th
The pallet (d) in the figure is the pallet to be moved next. By repeating such a cycle, the pallet (d) can be sequentially moved from the pallet conveyor (a) to the pallet conveyor (b). In this operation, a constant tilt angle θ is formed on the upper surface of the belt conveyor of the pallet transfer conveyor (c), and even if one is tilted by the swinging motion, one side is always set to be horizontal. On the other hand, the pallet (d) does not largely tilt even during movement, and is moved from the pallet conveyor (a) to the pallet conveyor (b) while being kept in a substantially horizontal position.
