Abstract:
A transport mechanism and a method for transporting objects are disclosed. The transport mechanism includes a transport unit, an adhesive-type conveyor unit, and a push-type transport unit. The adhesive-type conveyor unit receives objects from the transport unit and conveys the received objects to the push-type transport unit. The adhesive-type conveyor unit can generate a vacuum force to adhere the plurality of objects thereon. When the adhesive-type conveyor unit stops conveying the objects carried thereon, the objects adhered to the adhesive-type conveyor unit would block the objects being transported by the transport unit, and when the adhesive-type conveyor unit starts to convey the objects carried thereon to the push-type transport unit, the transport unit would immediately transport more objects to the adhesive-type conveyor unit. Thus, with the adhesive-type conveyor unit, the objects are conveyed to the push-type transport unit and the position of objects is also accurately controlled.

Claim (Index 4):
The transport mechanism of  claim 3 , wherein the adhesive-type conveyor unit further comprises a vacuum-generating device and a box with a space, the space is disposed in intimate contact with a portion of the conveyor belt and in communication with the through holes of the portion of the conveyer belt, when the vacuum-generating device sucks air out of the space, a vacuum force is generated in the through holes that are in communication with the space to adhere the objects on the adhesive-type conveyor unit.
