A third example of a double service conveyor is that in which the conveyor connects
two buildings separated by a yard. It carries washed bottles in a continuous stream from
the washing machines in one building and over a bridge to the filling machines in
another building at the rate of 240 bottles per minute, or 14,400 per hour, the chain
speed being 40 ft. per minute. During the journey the inverted bottles are draining, and
there is always a reserve supply of clean bottles on the conveyor for the fillers to draw
upon without labour or waiting.
Fig. 255 shows a double service slat conveyor for bottles, illustrating the driving gear.
