ABSTRACT:
The apparatus includes two partially parallel endless rail and trolley systems. The first rail and trolley system guides spacing members so that they approach the moving articles and move along their direction for a distance sufficient to space them. The spacing members are interconnected by articulated connecting arms, which pivot at the spacing members and also at an intermediate pivot point. The intermediate pivot points are guided along the second rail system. Adjustment of the path of the second rail and trolley system relative to the first rail and trolley system where the spacing members operate on the articles permits the adjustment of the spacing operation performed by the spacing members.
