ABSTRACT:
A transfer apparatus is provided for the transfer of rod-shaped articles, in particular filter rods, from a conveying apparatus for transverse axial conveying of the articles to a conveying apparatus for longitudinal axial conveying of the articles or vice versa. The directions of transport of the conveying apparatuses running transversely to each other. The transfer apparatus includes a rotatably driveable conveyor with at least one receptacle. Each receptacle is adapted to take at least one article off the conveying apparatus for transverse axial conveying of the articles and discharging the or each received article to the conveying apparatus for longitudinal axial conveying or vice versa. Each receptacle traverses a variable running circle. Several receptacles are evenly distributed over the circumference of the conveyor, all the receptacles being radially displaceable synchronously during operation of the apparatus.
