Abstract of the Disclosure A diverter apparatus for diverting articles from one conveyor to an intersecting conveyor includes a plu- rality of parallel vanes spaced apart transversely of the one conveyor and each carrying a plurality of pul- leys thereon, the pulleys of each vane cooperating with a corresponding one of a plurality of sheaves on a drive shaft for defining continuous paths for a like plurality of flexible endless bands. Two pulleys on each vane are spaced apart in the conveying direction for defining an elongated, continuous, article-support reach of the associated endless band elongated in the conveying direction. Each vane is mounted for pivotal movement about a vertical axis and the vanes are inter- connected by a control rod coupled to a fluid drive cyl- inder for pivoting the vanes simultaneously between first and second positions wherein the conveying direc- tion is aligned, respectively, with those of the one conveyor and the branch conveyor. The drive shaft is coupled to the one conveyor for deriving driving power therefrom.
