ABSTRACT:
In a molding process wherein a press delivers molded parts alternately to two or more stations, an apparatus is provided for moving a part from any one of the alternate press unloading stations to a common receiving station. The apparatus moves the part along a curvilinear path while maintaining the orientation of the part constant with respect to the receiving station. The apparatus includes a carriage which is supported on an overhead track, and which itself supports a rotatable holder. The apparatus further includes mechanical means capable of rotating the holder in response to the change in angular orientation of the carriage as it moves along the curved track, to effect the controlled orientation of the part as desired.
