referring to fig1 to 10 , there is shown transport apparatus 10 which comprises a feed conveyor 11 , adapted to feed biscuits 100 to first transport means in the form of an airbed 12 which is sloped downwardly from the feed conveyor 11 , at an angle of between 2 ° and 3 °, to second transport means 14 which comprises an intermediate conveyor 16 , channelling means in the form of a channelling board 17 and a plurality of lanes 18 . the intermediate conveyor 16 conveys the biscuits 100 through the channelling board 17 to the plurality of driven lanes 18 . the channelling board 17 is sloped at an angle of 18 °. the airbed 12 is provided with randomising means in the form of first and second rotating discs 13 , 15 arranged substantially opposite each other on either side of the airbed 12 . the biscuits 100 adjacent the sides of the airbed 12 engage the discs 13 , 15 and are thereby moved towards the centre of the airbed . in turn , biscuits travelling along the airbed 12 in a central region move outwardly . thus , the rotating discs 13 , 15 create a randomising effect of the biscuits 100 on the airbed 12 . the biscuits slide down the channelling board 17 to the driven lanes 18 which drives the biscuits by conveyor . two conveyors are provided in each lane , a metering conveyor to space the biscuits 100 arriving from the channelling board 17 which leads to a pitch conveyor which spaces the biscuits accurately . in the embodiment shown there are fifteen lanes 18 which are labelled 18a to 18p . the lanes 18 deliver the biscuits to a plurality of wrapping machines . the lanes 18 deliver the biscuits 100 to four wrapping machines , each wrapping machine being fed by three lanes . the first wrapping machine is fed by lanes 18d to 18f , the second wrapping machine is fed by lanes 18g to 18i , the third wrapping machine is fed by lanes 18j to 18l , and the fourth wrapping machine is fed by lanes 18m to 18p . lanes 18a to 18c lead to a region where wrapping takes place manually . the conveyors 11 and 16 consist of endless belt conveyors which are continuously driven to transport the biscuits . the plurality of lanes 18 are divided into first and second sections 24 , 26 . in the first section , lanes 18g to 18p can be moved outwardly to divert the biscuits 100 on those lanes by three lanes . thus , for example , the biscuits 100 on lane 18g can be diverted to lane 18j . this enables biscuits destined for the second wrapping machine , for example , to be diverted to the third wrapping machine . in the second section 26 , lanes 18a to 18i can be moved outwardly to divert the biscuits by three lanes . in each of the sections 24 , 26 the outer 6 lanes are movable together and the inner three lanes are movable together but independently of the outer lanes . thus , in the first section 24 , lanes 18j to 18p are movable independently of lanes 18g to 18i , and in the second section 26 , lanes 18a to 18f are movable independently of lanes 18g to 18i . the channelling board 17 is also provided with lanes and each lane has an aperture ( not shown ) and a sliding door ( not shown ) to cover the aperture . in the event that any of the lanes 18 are to be diverted , biscuits 100 should not be sent down that particular lane and the sliding door in the corresponding lane 17 is opened to allow the biscuits to fall down a chute ( not shown ) to a receptacle ( not shown ) where they can be packed manually . alternatively , the apparatus can be controlled such that movement of the channelling means 16 ( or 116 -- see below ) is interrupted for a short period of time ( for example 1 to 3 seconds ). this creates a gap in the biscuits 100 on the conveyor . diversion of the appropriate lanes 18 can then be delayed until the gap in the biscuits passes the region where the lanes 18 are diverted . this has the advantage that it is not necessary to dispose of biscuits down a chute which can be time consuming and can damage the biscuits 100 . the airbed 12 comprises guide means in the form of a pair of opposed movable walls 20 , 22 which ara adapted to guide the biscuits 100 to a predetermined arrangement such that they are conveyed by the conveyor 16 only to the lanes 18 where biscuits 100 are desired . in the arrangement shown in fig1 the movable wall 20 is moved inwardly of the airbed to a first position to guide the biscuits 100 such that they enter only lanes 18d to 18p . thus , in this arrangement , the manual wrapping of the biscuits is not required . this is normal running of the apparatus 10 and the wrapping machines . it will be appreciated that the use of the airbed 12 ensures that the biscuits are in a random arrangement thereon and enables them to be easily re - arranged by the movable walls 20 , 22 to the desired arrangement such that they are fed only to the desired lanes 18 . in fig2 the guide means 20 is moved further inwardly of the airbed 12 to a second position to guide the biscuits 100 only to lanes 18g and 18p . thus , in this particular arrangement , the first wrapping machine has failed and the biscuits are being delivered by lanes 18g to 18p to the second , third and fourth wrapping machines . in fig3 the second wrapping machine has failed and the biscuits destined originally for that wrapping machine have been diverted to the first , third and fourth machines . as can be seen from the drawing , movable walls 20 and 22 have both moved inwardly of the airbed 12 to first positions to guide the biscuits 100 to lanes 18d to 18l . in order to divert the biscuits in lanes 18g to 18i , the first section 24 of the lanes 18 has moved the lanes 18g to 18p outwardly such that the biscuits originally in lanes 18g to 18l have been diverted to lanes 18j to 18p , thus diverting all biscuits 100 away from lanes 18g to 18i , and consequently , away from the second wrapping machine . in the arrangement shown in fig4 the third wrapping machine has failed and thus , it is necessary to divert biscuits away from lanes 18j to 18l . in order to do this , the movable walls 20 and 22 are moved inwardly as shown , to first positions , to direct the biscuits 100 towards the lanes 18d to 18l . the lanes 18j to 18p at the first section 24 of the lanes 18 are moved outwardly to divert the biscuits in lanes 18j to 18l into lanes 18m to 18p . in the arrangement shown in fig5 the third and fourth wrapping machines have failed and so it is necessary to divert the biscuits away from lanes 18j to 18p . in order to do this , the movable wall 20 is moved back against the side of the airbed and the movable wall 22 is moved inwards of the airbed to its second position as shown , such that the biscuits are directed towards lanes 18a to 18i . in this arrangement it is necessary to direct the biscuits towards lanes 18a to 18c and thus manual wrapping will be required . no diversion of the biscuits 100 on the lanes is required . fig6 shows an arrangement where it is necessary to pack more biscuits than in a case where normal running of the apparatus 10 is required . in this arrangement , the movable walls 20 and 22 are both in their position against the sides of the airbed such that the biscuits 100 are directed towards all fifteen lanes 18a to 18p . no diversion is required either at the airbed 12 or at the sections 24 , 26 of the lanes 18 . in the arrangement shown in fig7 the first and fourth wrapping machines have failed and it is necessary to divert the biscuits 100 away from lanes 18d to 18f and from lanes 18m to 18p . thus , the movable walls 20 , 22 are moved inwardly to guide the biscuits 100 to the lanes 18d to 18l . the lanes at the first section 24 are not diverted but lanes 18a to 18f in the second section 26 are moved outwardly to divert the biscuits in lanes 18d to 18f to lanes 18a to 18c . the biscuits in lanes 18g to 18l remain undiverted . thus , all the biscuits are transported to wrapping machines 2 and 3 and to the region for manually wrapping the biscuits . in the arrangement shown in fig8 the second and fourth wrapping machines have failed and so it is necessary to divert the biscuits away from lanes 18g to 18i and lanes 18m to 18p . this is done by moving the movable wall 20 against the side of the airbed 12 and moving the movable wall 22 to its second position . thus , the biscuits 100 are guided towards the lanes 18a to 18i . in order to divert the biscuits away from the lanes feeding wrapping machine no . 2 , lanes 18g to 18p at the first section 24 are moved outwardly such that the biscuits on lanes 18g to 18i are diverted to lanes 18j to 18l . thus , biscuits are fed to the first and third wrapping machine and to the region for manually wrapping the biscuits fed by lanes 18a to 18c . in the arrangement shown in fig9 the first and third wrapping machines have failed and so it is necessary to divert biscuits away from lanes 18d to 18f and lanes 18j to 18l . in order to do this , the movable walls 20 , 22 are moved to their first positions to guide the biscuits 100 to the lanes 18d to 18l . at the first section 24 of the lanes 18 , the lanes 18j to 18p are moved outwardly such that the biscuits in lanes 18j to 18l are diverted to lanes 18m to 18p . also , at the second section 26 the lanes 18a to 18f are diverted outwardly in opposite directions to lanes 18j to 18p in the first section 24 , such that the biscuits in the lanes 18d to 18f are diverted to lanes 18a to 18c . the biscuits in lanes 18g to 18i are not diverted . thus , biscuits are fed along lanes 18a to 18c , lanes 18g to 18i and lanes 18m to 18p to feed biscuits to the manual packing region , and to the second and fourth wrapping machines nos . 2 and 4 . in the arrangement shown in fig1 , the second and third wrapping machines have failed and so it is necessary to divert biscuits away from lanes 18g to 18l . this is done by moving the movable walls 20 , 22 to their first position such that the biscuits 100 are guided to the lanes 18d to 18l . lanes 18j to 18p in the first section 24 are moved outwardly , as shown , to divert the biscuits 100 on lanes 18j to 18l to lanes 18m to 18p . also , lanes 18a to 18i in the second section 26 are moved outwardly , as shown to divert the biscuits in lanes 18d to 18i to lanes 18a to 18f . thus , the biscuits are delivered to the manual wrapping region via lanes 18a to 18c , to the first wrapping machine via lanes 18d to 18f and to the fourth wrapping machine via lanes 18m to 18p . in each of the above cases , where lane diversion occurs , the biscuits on lanes 18a to 18d and lanes 18m to 18p will not be lost . the reason for this is that sliding openings in these lanes will open for a period of substantially two seconds before the lanes are moved to enable to biscuits on those lanes to fall down chutes beneath the lanes 18 to receptacles where they can be packed manually . sensing means in the form of a proximity unit ( not shown ) is arranged above the lanes downstream of the second section 26 , the proximity unit detects when a wrapping machine wrapping biscuits on particular lanes has failed because the biscuits in those lanes will be caused to move to a substantially vertical positions and there is resultant back - up of biscuits in the vertical position which will trigger sensors on the proximity unit . the proximity unit will then transmit an appropriate signal to a computer control unit to actuate the appropriate movement of the movable walls 20 , 22 , the lanes in the first and second sections 24 , 26 , and the sliding doors in the lanes 18 . it will be appreciated that the above described arrangements as shown in fig1 to 10 are only examples and many other arrangements may occur where different combinations of wrapping machines fail . referring now to fig1 , there is shown a second embodiment of the invention in which the same features as those shown in fig1 to 10 are given the same reference numerals . in the second embodiment , the movable walls 20 , 22 are omitted and are replaced by a plurality of rotating discs 28 . also , the lanes 18 are static and cannot be moved . in use , the discs are arranged such that their upper surfaces are flush with the surface of the airbed 12 , so that biscuits can pass over them . the discs 28 are provided with apertures to allow the passage of air therethrough . in order to block a desired one or more of the lanes , the corresponding disc 28 is raised such that biscuits cannot pass through to the particular lanes to be blocked . the rotation of the disc 28 causes biscuits coming into contact with it to be deflected into the path of one of the lanes which is not blocked . as shown in fig1 , disc 28a is intended to block lanes 18a to 18c , disc 28b is intended to block lanes 18d to 18f , disc 28c is intended to block lanes 18g to 18i disc 28d is intended to block lanes 18j to 18l , and disc 28e is intended to block lanes 18m to 18p . in the arrangement shown in fig1 , the fourth wrapping machine no . 4 has failed , and so it is necessary to block lanes 18m to 18p such that the biscuits 100 can only travel down lanes 18a to 18l . thus , disc 28e is raised into the path of biscuits on the airbed 12 heading for lanes 18m to 18p and these biscuits are thus deflected towards lanes 18a to 18l . it will be appreciated that by raising or lowering the rotating discs as desired the lanes heading to any one or more of the wrapping machines can be blocked . modifications may be made without departing from the scope of the invention . for example , the number of lanes could be varied and the number of rotating discs could also be varied . fig1 shows another embodiment , which is the same as the embodiment shown in fig1 to 10 , with the exception that the conveyor 16 is replaced by a conveyor 116 . in this embodiment , the conveyor 116 comprises five belts 116a to 116e . it will be appreciated that the number of belts can be varied , as desired . in fig1 , belt 116a transports biscuits 100 to lanes 18a to 18c , belt 116b transports biscuits to lanes 18d to 18f , belt 116c transports biscuits to lanes 18g to 18i , belt 116d transports biscuits to lanes 18j to 18l , and belt 116e transports biscuits to lanes 18m to 18p . the speed of each of the belts 116a to 116e is independently adjustable so that the rate of transport of biscuits to any particular wrapping machine can be reduced or increased as desired . thus , if it was desired that the wrapping machine fed by lanes 18m to 18p should operate at a slower speed than the other wrapping machines , the speed of belt 116e can be reduced relative to speeds of the other belts thereby reducing the rate of feed of biscuits to that particular wrapping machine . when the speed of one of the belts 116a to 116e , for example , 116e , is reduced , excess biscuits on the airbed 12 which were destined for belt 116e move across the airbed 12 to one of the other belts 116a to 116d to be transported to the lanes 18 . thus , there is no backing up of biscuits on the airbed 12 . whilst endeavouring in the foregoing specification to draw attention to those features of the invention believed to be of particular importance it should be understood that the applicant claims protection in respect of any patentable feature or combination of features hereinbefore referred to and / or shown in the drawings whether or not particular emphasis has been placed thereon .
