Abstract
The invention relates to a method for receiving mass-produced individual or stacked articles or products, especially plastic cups, which after having been produced in a moulding and/or punching machine are ejected from same. The device comprises a catching device for catching the ejected products and a stacking device which receives the products from the catching device and after stacking holds them ready for further transport. The catching and stacking devices can be moved away from and towards each other. The stacking device is used during the movement towards the catching device for seizing the product(s) held in the catching device and during the movement away from the catching device for withdrawing the product(s) from the catching device.

Apparatus for receiving mass-produced articles or stacked products, especially plastic cups, which after having been formed in a moulding and/or punching machine are ejected from same, with a catching device, with which the ejected products are seized, and with a stacking and holding device, which receives the products out of the catching device and after stacking holds them ready for further transport, wherein the catching and the stacking and holding devices are moved towards one another and away from one another, wherein the stacking and holding device is used during the movement towards one another to seize the product or products in the catching direction and during the movement away from one another to withdraw the product or products out of the catching device.
An apparatus for the receiving of mass-produced articles, in particular plastic cups, which after being formed in a moulding and/or punching machine are ejected from same, with a catching device assigned to the machine, in order to grasp the products as they leave the machine, and a stacking and handling device situated downstream of the catching device, in which the products are capable of being taken over and are held stacked and ready for further transport, wherein the catching and the stacking and holding devices are movable towards one another and away from one another, wherein gripping members formed for the detachable grasping of the products are arranged there singly or as a plurality on or in both the catching and the stacking and holding direction, in such a way that with the movement of the catching and the stacking and holding devices towards and away from one another a take-over of the products from the catching into the stacking and holding device may take place.
