More Information
Summary:This invention relates to an apparatus for loading onto and unloading from an adjacent conveyor system (5) certain round devices being transported by the conveyor system (5). This device provides a means for loading the conveyor system (5) and for off-loading devices from the conveyor. In the off-load mode, the apparatus can be used as a means for delaying reentry of the devices back onto the conveyor system (5), or the devices can be removed from further interaction with the conveyor system (5) or recycled or recharged for a subsequent trip through the conveyor system (5).
