Device for transferring two-dimensional products onto a transportation device

A device for transferring segregated flat-shaped products from a web supplied along a transport path for further transport of the products following removal thereof from the web, said device comprising:

• a transfer device including a roll arranged transverse to the transport path, said roll having suction orifices arranged about a circumference thereof and internal channels having openings in opposed axial end faces of said roll, said internal channels being communicative with said suction orifices, said transfer device further including vacuum chamber members disposed axially at the opposed axial end faces of said roll, said roll being rotatable relative to said vacuum chamber members, each of said vacuum chamber members having a concentric groove and a ventilation channel which radially correspond to the openings of said internal channels, said concentric groove being connected with a vacuum conduit and said ventilation channel being connected with atmosphere and facing said transport device;
• and
• a transport device for transporting the products along the transport path when transferred thereto from the transfer device, said transport device including a vacuum container and a conveyor belt having suction openings communicative with an interior of said vacuum container, said transfer device further comprising deflecting structure disposed at an end of said vacuum container facing said roll of said transfer device around which the conveyer belt is deflected, said deflecting structure having cutouts communicative with said interior of said vacuum container which positionally correspond with said suction openings in said conveyer belt.
