Abstract

L'invention concerne un appareil de transport d'articles à changement de direction. Un appareil de transport d'articles, selon un mode de réalisation, comprend : une pluralité d'unités de transport agencées séparément en unités cellules le long d'un trajet de transfert de façon à non seulement transférer des articles mais également à changer la direction de déplacement des articles ; et une unité de commande destinée à déterminer la direction de déplacement des articles et à commander chacune des unités de transport de sorte que les articles se déplacent dans la direction correspondant à la direction de déplacement déterminée, chacune des unités de transport comprenant un transporteur à courroie destiné à transporter des articles placés sur la courroie de ce dernier, et un dispositif de changement de direction destiné à changer la direction de déplacement de la courroie de façon à changer la direction de déplacement des articles se déplaçant le long de la courroie.
