ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for transferring block-shaped arrays of plain or filter cigarettes in a packing machine has a rotary first conveyor which orbits a set of equidistant pockets for discrete arrays about a first vertical axis. The first conveyor is provided with drives which can pivot the pockets about discrete second vertical axes as well as impart to the pockets translatory movements radially of the first conveyor as well as radially of two turret-shaped second conveyors. One second conveyor delivers arrays to the pockets of the first conveyor, and the other second conveyor receives arrays from the pockets of the first conveyor. The ability of pockets on the first conveyor to perform superimposed pivotal as well as dual translatory movements enables such pockets to advance in close proximity to an in exact alignment with the pockets of the one second conveyor along a relatively long first portion of their endless path about the first axis as well as to advance in close proximity to and in exact alignment with the pockets of the other second conveyor along a relatively long second portion of their endless path about the first axis.
