ABSTRACT:
An apparatus and method for decorating articles is provided with article carriers which are advanced with a stepwise motion along a guide track on a circulatory conveyor path whereby each article is passed, on the same carrier, through successive treatment stations. The article carriers are releasably connectible to a reciprocally movable conveyor means which, upon movement thereof in the conveying direction, is engageable with the article carriers, while upon movement thereof in the opposite direction to the conveying direction, it is out of engagement with the article carriers. The conveying stepping motions and the residence times of the articles in the various stations are adaptable to the respective conditions obtaining. The guide track may be subdivided into two portions which are disposed at a spacing from each other, and the spacing between the two portions can be bridged across by reciprocal movable sections carrying the article carriers.
