ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for feeding a number of wrapping machines with chocolate bars or the like, produced continuously and advancing end-on in a procession in more or less regular files and rows comprising a series of successive modules which feed the individual wrapping machines. The modules are preceded by a separator which channels the procession into separate lanes. The modules form part of a conveyor system which advances the articles continuously along a horizontal path. The modules operate in succession to lift the articles in the associated lane from the horizontal path and deliver them to an intermittently travelling cross conveyor leading to one of the wrapping machines. When any packaging machine is unable to accept articles, the articles lifted by its module are returned to the horizontal feed path and the cross conveyor of that module is stopped.
