ABSTRACT:
An arrangement for converting a multi-track stream of containers into a plurality of parallel container rows that are separated from one another by separating elements. A feed mechanism conveys the containers, and a withdrawal mechanism is divided by the separating elements into a plurality of lanes, one for each of the container rows. A transition zone is disposed between the feed mechanism and the withdrawal mechanism, and is formed by the upper lengths of a plurality of conveyer bands that are disposed in the conveying direction, and transverse to this direction are disposed adjacent one another. The containers of the multi-track stream are distributed to the individual lanes in this transition zone. The conveyer bands of the transition zone spread apart in a fan-like manner in such a way that the lateral spacing between the upper lengths of adjacent conveyer bands increases in the conveying direction from the feed mechanism, with a maximum value of this spacing being less than the diameter of the containers and/or the width of the lanes of the withdrawal mechanism.
