ABSTRACT:
The method and apparatus is used for tilting substantially rotationally symmetrical bodies, such as frustoconical bobbin bodies, from a shell surface thereof onto an end surface thereof. The body is moved in a given transport direction defining leading and trailing end surface of the body with the shell surface lying on a conveyor path. The movement continues until the body crosses a dividing palne. The dividing plane extends transversely between and defines edges of two path segments of the conveyor path. The body is stopped when the leading and trailing end surfaces are supported on different path segments. The edge of one of the path segments is subsequently selectively raised relative to the other of the path segments. The body is tilted about the riased edge onto the other of the path segments until the end surface located above the other of the path segments comes to rest on the other of the path segments. The tilted body is removed in the given transport direction.
