Accesing inventories with conveyors

[dzikakulka]

So I have a problem with how to acces inventories and how conveyors and tubes link. Here is a screenshot of what I've built: http://imgur.com/iYzR3EX
So the welder and grinder are linked and they are transferring resources fine. But from time to time I want to pull stuff out of it or put it in manually, so I need to to have access in here. BUT, conveyor doesn't have inventory. Ok, ill put small cargo container on top, it fits one of these 3 small openings on top of conveyor. Nope. Nothing works, containers, ejectors, connectors etc placed at top of the conveyor are not linked with welder-grinder, no option to push stuff inside. Is there any way I can do it? Am I doing it wrong, or is it a bug?

Because its a Small Opening. They follow the same Rule and the Small/Normal Conveyer routes, certain items will not pass through.

Could you elaborate? Which items will not pass through? Where I can get info about it? I tried to put inside anything and there is simply no connection.

You have two inventories on that conveyor system - two welders. You can put stuff inside. The problem is, you have no access to ports.
Add connector to the conveyor, on the back, and move merge block to the top. Your welders will be lower, but you will have access to the conveyor.
You can also replace conveyor tubes with conveyors.

EDIT: ah, never mind. You have unused large port in front, covered with armor blocks. Remove them and add the connector.

Ok, thanks for advices, I just noticed that medium cargo container has a little opening on the side (on only one, haven't spotted it before) and it fits perfectly in the place of conveyor. Two big openings on opposite sides connected to tubes and one small on top for access.

But it still won't work. You can't push large components (i.e. steel plates) through small port.

[sorry, it will be faster this way] Wywal armorki z przodu, wklej tam łącznik. Będziesz miał nie tylko dostęp do środka, ale także punkt do wymiany komponentów, np. przez drugi łącznik na statku/stacji.
