FIELD: machine building.
SUBSTANCE: conveyor (10) comprises mounting frame (12) for product feed lanes (13), each lane being defined by a respective conveyor belt (14) with articulated links (14′), and means for levelling products (11) and comprises first and second lateral guide rails (16a, 16b), which define a track with width (d). First and second lateral guide rails extend in direction of tape or track and have surface (16c, 16d) for contact in lateral direction with product. Conveyor comprises means to control track width. Conveyor comprises first and second crosswise support moving elements (18a, 18b) for lateral guides and drives (20) to be driven in opposite directions of first and second crosswise elements and containing gear wheel (20a) with axis directed along direction of conveyor passage, and toothed racks (208a, 208b), which are engaged with gear wheel and which are provided on first and second crosswise support moving elements for lateral guides. First and second crosswise support moving elements for corresponding lateral guides are aligned with each other along direction of conveyor passage, and each crosswise support moving element for lateral guide is made in form of long plate.
EFFECT: higher reliability of mechanism for controlling width of conveyor tracks.
