Process and device for conveying odd-shaped containers

A transfer stabilizing support to be temporarily secured to a container for ease of conveyance in a table-top conveyor system, said support comprising:

• a bottom surface with an opening of a size to allow a rod-like mechanism to one of manipulate the container secured by the transfer stabilization support and remove the secured container from the transfer stabilization support the bottom surface having an inner edge adjacent the opening and an outer edge;
• a wall extending perpendicularly from the outer edge of the bottom surface forming a cup-like enclosure, said wall being designed to correspond with the base of a container and including ribs that project into the enclosure to securely hold or support the contour of the container base;
• and
• a ridge area concentrically spaced from said wall that projects from the bottom surface, the height of said ridge area determining how high or low the container base rests in the enclosure.
