Claim:
A device for transferring goods from a first to a second conveyor, the device comprising: a substantially upright extending frame; an endless drive arranged on the frame and drivable by a motor; at least one support member which is connected to the endless drive and which is drivable in a circuit by means of the endless drive; and at least one product carrier connected to the support member, wherein the product carrier is connected to the support member for rotation about a lying shaft extending transversely of the frame; wherein the product carrier is connected drivably to no more than one endless drive; wherein the support member comprises a first wheel configured to roll along a first side of the frame, and a second wheel configured to roll along a second side of the frame which is opposite the first side, and wherein the support member at least partially encloses the frame between the first wheel and the second wheel; and wherein the support member at least partially encloses the frame, a running wheel of the endless drive, or a combination thereof, in order to thus obtain the coupling between the support member and the frame, the running wheel, or a combination thereof such that the degree of freedom of the support member transversely of the plane of the frame is substantially fixed, while the support member is movable substantially freely along a predetermined path in the plane of the frame by the endless drive.
