Estimating the term…
In a feed line of articles arranged one after the other on a movable conveyor belt or the like so as to make up a continuous row, the articles being under the control of a longitudinal guide device, a stop member is provided for blocking this row of articles at the cavity of the molding box into which one article is to be introduced by a pusher. A drawing member is provided for another article in the row, the drawing member being reciprocated in a direction at right angles to the row of articles, so as to form a second row guided by second guide devices. A second stop member is provided for the second row, and a second pusher is provided for introducing the individual articles of the second row into a second cavity of the molding box in which such articles are received.
An offset device for arranging along two parallel lines articles which arrive from a single line, wherein a row of articles is arranged one after the other on a movable conveyor belt or the like so as to make up a continuous row subjected to a longitudinal guide device, a stop member for stopping the leading article in front of a cavity into which said article is to be introduced, pushing means for introducing said leading article into said cavity of the molding box, a drawing member mounted for reciprocating motion at right angles to said first row of articles to displace preselected articles from said first row to a second row parallel to the first row, a second guide device, a second stop member for the leading article of said second row and a second pushing means for introducing said leading article of said second row into a second cavity of the molding box capable of receiving the same.
