Title: Variable speed transport system

Abstract: A closed loop transport system capable of acceleration and deceleration during the transportation operation in any continuous operating cycle comprising a carrier belt formed of a plurality of carrier belt segments, the system having varying speed drive belts adapted to support and drive the carrier belt segments such that the carrier belt segments are capable of sliding along each other when passing from one constant speed drive belt to a further different constant speed drive belt, whereby the carrier belt segments have a greater inclination with respect to a perpendicular plane passing through the drive belts when on a higher speed drive belt than when on a lower speed drive belt.
