CODE DETECTING MECHANISM FOR DETECTING INCORRECT, MISSING, OR MISPLACED CODES ON AN ARTICLE

摘要

A code detecting mechanism for detecting articles having incorrect, missing, or misplaced codes travelling along one path, and in response thereto diverting the articles to another path. A predetermined code is sensed by a sensing system selectively set to the predetermined code, and the output thereof fed into a logic control circuit. If the sensing system does not sense the predetermined code for which it is preset, the control logic circuit is actuated to divert the article.
