A conveying apparatus for use in assembly line processing of articles supported thereon, comprising: conveying means supported for horizontal movement in a longitudinal direction of travel, support means for supporting said conveying means, a substantially L-shaped hanger having a pair of substantially perpendicular arms which are fixed to one another at adjacent ends thereof, said L-shaped hanger having one of said arms coupled at an upper free end thereof to said conveying means such that said L-shaped hanger depends downwardly from said conveying means with said one arm extending substantially vertically downwardly directly beneath said conveying means, and the other of said arms being cantilevered from said one arm and extending substantially horizontally but in a sideward direction which is substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of travel of said conveying means for travel in said longitudinal direction, said one arm of said L-shaped hanger being pivotally coupled adjacent said free end thereof to said conveying means such that said L-shaped hanger is freely sidewardly swingable about said conveying means, said other arm terminating at a free end which is substantially sidewardly offset from said conveying means, said other arm being adapted to support an article thereon for travel in said longitudinal direction, said article, as supported on said other arm, being substantially horizontally sidewardly offset from said conveying means, said L-shaped hanger including a guide roller which is carried thereon and adapted for rolling engagement along a guide rail to provide roller support of said L-shaped hanger against sidewardly swinging movement as said hanger travels with said conveyor means.
