ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for transferring arrays of cigarettes from the pockets of at least one intermittently driven first conveyor into the pockets of a continuously driven second conveyor wherein the transfer takes place by means of at least one pair of arms which have pockets for arrays of cigarettes and are indexible about a common axis to define for their pockets a path a first portion of which overlaps a portion of the path for the pockets of the first conveyor and a second portion of which registers with a portion of the path which is defined for its pockets by the second conveyor. The pockets of the arms receive arrays from the pockets of the first conveyor while the arms are at a standstill, and the pockets of the arms are in positions for transfer of their contents into the pockets of the second conveyor while the arms move at the speed of the second conveyor. The path portion wherein the pockets of the second conveyor receive arrays from the pockets of the arms is arcuate and its center of curvature is located on the common axis of the arms. The pockets of the arms extend radially of the common axis.
