ABSTRACT

The invention relates to a belt buffer for a product conveying device which
conveys products ( 13 ) from a production facility by means of conveyor belts
( 1 , 2 ) to at least one further processing facility. The belt buffer has at
least two buffer belts, which store products ( 13 ) and are arranged
vertically one above the other. The buffer belts have, on the inlet side, a
first vertically pivotable belt deflector ( 5 ) for optionally connecting to
an inlet belt ( 3 ) and, on the outlet side, a second vertically pivotable
belt deflector ( 6 ) for optionally connecting to an outlet belt ( 4 ). The
belt buffer can convey the products ( 13 ) through the buffer in a first-in
first-out process.
