ABSTRACT:
The specification describes an apparatus for loading a stillage, for example with elongate articles such as extrusions. The apparatus comprises a horizontal series of spaced forwardly projecting sub-frames each carrying one or more rollers rotatable about a horizontal forwardly extending axis on to which rollers the extrusions can be fed from one side. The sub-frames can be moved forward and rearward relative to the frame of the apparatus. Between adjacent sub-frames are tines which can be raised to lift the extrusions off the rollers and, after the sub-frames and rollers have been moved rearwardly, can be lowered to lower the extrusions on to the stillage. The tines can then be moved rearward to disengage them from the extrusions on the stillage, either by movement of the tines relative to the main frame or by moving the main frame itself. Means is provided for depositing spacers on the extrusions while they are in their raised position after having been lifted from the rollers by the tines.
