A finger guard member includes: a first surface disposed between one end of a roller and a belt wound around the one end; a second surface in which a notch having a width larger than a shaft diameter of a fixed shaft of the roller is formed with respect to the fixed shaft positioned outside the one end in a longitudinal direction of the roller; and a positioning part disposed inside the notch. When the fixed shaft has a first shaft diameter, the finger guard member is positioned by the positioning part being supported by a peripheral surface of the fixed shaft. When the fixed shaft has a second shaft diameter greater than the first shaft diameter, the finger guard member is positioned by an edge of the notch being supported by the peripheral surface of the fixed shaft with the positioning part being not present on the second surface.

A curved conveyor in a horizontal curved path section of a conveying path has an inner idler wheel array arranged to the inside of the horizontal curved path section with respect to an arc-shaped center line that passes through the center of the path width of the horizontal curved path section, and an outer driving wheel array arranged to the outside of the horizontal curved path section with respect to the arc-shaped center line, wherein the distance from the arc-shaped center line to the outer driving wheel array is smaller than the distance from the arc-shaped center line to the inner idler wheel array.

A conveyor bed including a conveyor frame, a first set of rollers, a second set of rollers, and a pivotable frame is provided. The first set of rollers are coupled to the conveyor frame to transport an article from an upstream location to a downstream location. The pivotable frame pivotably coupled to a side of the of the conveyor frame. The second set of rollers mounted to the pivotable frame, positioned below the first set of rollers. A belt wrapped is around the second set of rollers, and selectively engages and disengages the first set of rollers in response to pivoting the pivotable frame based on predefined criteria.
