摘要: A conveyor system for transferring cigarettes in trays from tray-fillers supplied by cigarette-making machines to trayunloaders supplying cigarette-packing machines and for returning empty trays to the tray-fillers having an endless continuously moving overhead conveyor track carrying a series of hoists for supporting carriers for the trays, wherein the forward and return reaches of the conveyor are interconnected by cross-conveyors to enable any empty trays in the forward reach to be transferred to the return reach and any filled trays in the return reach to be transferred to the forward reach. The tray loads of cigarettes are handled by various means for exchanging the trays between an overhead continuously moving conveyor and stations where the trays are filled and unloaded which means includes hooks to support the trays on the conveyor in carriers which hooks are automatically released by movement of the carriers off the conveyor and secured by movement of the carriers back to the conveyor.
